the Bartholomew company expires in
June, and the new contract is to go into
effect when that expires
There will be lively time over the

defeat the contract, and SO far as known,
there are but two members of the coun-
Gil who are opposed to giving the new
company what it asks. They are Coun-
Gilman Bradford of the Third ward and
Councilman Stephenson of the Second.
Councilman Bradford says that he does
not believe that the new company is in
earnest or that they intend to build the
dam. He says, 81 an for any company

Trains Taken OFF.

Gossip About the Santa Fe Passenger
Trains Taken Of:
The people of Nickerson are becoming
anxious about the discontinuance of two
passenger trains on the Santa Fe west of
that place. They have not been run west
of Nickerson for some time and will not
be until the business of the road is bet
ter. The officials here say they have not
heard of the boycott spoken of in the
following clipping from the Nickerson
Argosy:
''We are reliably informed that there is
no likelihood of Nos and being run
west of this city until the business of the
road justities putting them on again;
that they were run for some time after
they ceased to pay expenses. 1t now
seems that some firms west and travelling
men have an understanding to boycott
the road because the trains named above
are not run. That whenever they can,
orders are given to ship over some other
line, when in reality it is not any advan-
tage to the shipper to do So"

The Age-Herald the other day said that instruments of credit can be manu- factured as business demands, and with drawn when not necessary. This is such a plain proposition that any good busi- ness man will assent to it at once. The Montgomery Journal, however. tries to disprove it. To do this it perverts the meaning of the proposition. It says in struments of credit must be based on something. Of course that is true. All checks, drafts and commercial paper are based upon something. As business in- creases these instruments of credit null tiply. The Journal contends that they do not take the place of legal tender
 The Journal falls into the common error that because money is made legal tender by the government it will always be ac- ceptable. Our experience with the green backs in the early seventies proves this is not true. Although greenbacks were legal tender they fell far below gold.
