STILL BEHIND.

The federal treasury deficit for the
first third of the month of July was
over S12,OOO,0O0. It was the predic-
tion of Secretary Carlisle and the
treasury officials that the close of the
fiscal year would reveal a better show
ing, and that the new year would start
in with better results from revenue
receipts, but no improvement is
noted. AS revenue measure the
new tariff law has thus far proven a
fiat failure, and the prospects ahead
are not re-assuring. Instead of some
$40, 100000 surplus at the end of the
calendar year, as was estimated, the
treasury will be fortunate indeed if it
does not have deficit of an equal or
greater amount. The question which
confronts the treasury is a serious
one, and will need the attention of
congress as soon as that body meets
next December.
Fortunately the house is Republi-
can and will go at the matter in a
business-like manner, and it will not
be a difficult question for it to solve.
Unquestionably the most sensible
thing that could be done would be
the re-enactment of the Mckinley
law with a few changes here and there

THE BLUE EARTH COUNTY GAZET-
TEER.

The Atlas and Gazetteer of Blue
Earth county which the Central Pub.
Co., of Minneapolis, have had under
preparation for some months back, is
now finished and is being distributed
under the supervision of Mr.. j. S.
Masterman. Among it's contents are
a fine map of Minnesota, map of the
county, an exceptionally fine map of
the city, showing every feature up to
date. Also map of Lake Crystal and
of each of the townships of the
county, showing the location of all
villages, the subdivisions of land, with
the owners name and assessed valua-
tion, also the value of all improve
ments, locating all the various roads,
rivers, lakes, houses, school houses,
school boundaries, etc. There is also
a brief history of the county from the
earliest days to the present time, in
Guiding sketch of the Sioux massacre
and the hanging of the thirty-nine
Indians in this city.
1t is profusely illustrated with a
large number of views of buildings,
scenery, portraits, ETC., and contains
short biographical sketches of many
of the leading citizens of the county.
1t was the aim of the publishers of
the book to secure accuracy in all
matters pertaining to the county, and
the careful manner in which they
looked everything up would indicate
that this part has been attained.

GET FULL IMPORTATION.

The ReUieov of July 18th contained
an article by Judge Torrey advocating
the city ask for bids for furnishing
city lighting and also the furnishing
of electricity for private lighting and
power purposes, upon which was prac-
tically based the resolutions which
were introduced into the council by
DR.. Andrews and lost by tie vote.
In commenting uponthe article the Re
vieov approved of it, and thought that
if anything could be realized from
such a course it would be beneficial to
the public.
Last evening the Revie,v contained
another letter from Mr.. Torrey COM
menting further upon the proposition
of his letter of July 18th, and in it's
editorial :comments the ReUieoo goes
back entirely upon its former express
ion, which would look as though it
might have received visit from some
of the city administration, showing it
how dangerous, to a city plant, such
line of argument would be.
Now the vote upon the resolutions
introduced by DR.. Andrews was a tie,
showing that the council is not wholly
assured that the putting in an cleo
trio plant by the city is really the best
move to make, at least until full in
formation upon the subject as to
whether it is the cheapest for the city,
is acquired.
The point raised by the Revieav that
the people of the city have on differ
ent occasions demanded the establish
ing of an electric light plant by the
city is not very strong one as regards
the recent bond election. The vote
on the bonds was not representative
vote, being less than half of the vote
of the city, many not voting because
of being in doubt as to the policy of
city lighting, and besides the voting
of the bonds carried no especial de-
mand for the establishing of an cleo
trio plant, but simply provided the
council with funds should it so see fit
to do. 1t is hardly to be supposed the
taxpayers would approve the action
of the council in passing by of an es-
pecially advantageous offer to furnish
city lights and the furnishing of cleo
ity to private individuals at low rate
for ne purpose of putting in a city
pl' (which might cost the city from
SO 100 per cent. more for lights,
wi leaving the people to get their
lights and power at such price as
private corporation might see fit to
charge them.
The action of the council in voting
down Mr.. Andrews resolutions would
look, if adhered to, as though the city
authorities were bent upon putting in
plant, no matter what the ultimate
cost of the lights may be, not how
much more cheaply they might be OBJ
tanned from a private company, and
the Reeaeao approves of it by it's re-
marks last night. This is beautiful
doctrine for city or any paper there
in to advocate. and looks as though
there might be some kind of politi-
cal scheme behind it for the purpose
of making more places to be filled,
hence more spoils to dispense.

The Duluth Herald holds that the
talk about Kentucky going Republi-
can this year is bosh because the state
went Democratic in 1892 by 100000 ma
Jority. Kentucky may not go Repub-
lican, but the Herald ought to know
that things have changed since 1892,
and Republican victory in Kentucky
would be no more strange than some
other things that have happened.

So FAR the Horr-Harvey debate has
not been very profitable reading for
the public, as it has been mostly
threshing over old straw. The remain
ing days of the debate may turn it to
some account, and the attitude of Mr..
Horn Saturday would indicate that he
is tired of following Mr.. Harvey
through chaff, and would like to turn
to some point Of interest.

RESOLUTIONS,

Unanimously Adopted In the Rail-
Apr. 3.
At the mass convention in Knox
vile April 3rd with repres entatives
from Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia
North and South Carolina. when
the Ohio River, Knoxville and
Tidewater Railroad was properly
begun, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, There is without
question a necessity and a demand
for line of railway extending from
the coal fields of Kentucky and
Tennessee to Tidewater;
WHEREAS, This has beeP so clearly
recognized for the past Nifty years
that various efforts have been
made to construct such q railway,
lines have been located and much
work has been done towards con-
struction;
WHEREAS, The reasons for fail
ure in each case, heretofore, have
been exceptional and In no way
implied any change in the con-
ditions demanding the road;
WHEREAS, These reasons being
now stronger than ever, from the
fact that the mineral and other
resources of the various States
through which the road should
pass have been developed,
and have been found to be richer
than ever anticipated, an unlimited
market for coal and timber awaits
the construction of this road at
Tidew alter; and,
WHEREAS, The number of enter.
prises that would absorb capital
with an assurance Of absolute GER
tainty and profit are more limited
than heretofore; therefore,
Resolved, That the time has
come to build this road, the con-
ditions being more favorable than
ever before.
ResoUed, That this convention,
having heard the plan proposed by
Col. Albert E. Boone, cordially en-.
dorse the.same, believing that his
proposals are reasonable and such
that promise success.
RESOLVED, That having invests
gated the record of Col. Boone, we
believe he comes to this work:lfully
equipped by ability and large ex-
perince to carry to successful
issue his plans.
RESOLVED, That we for ourselves.
and the sections we represent,
pledge Col. Boone our enthusiastic
support, and that we recommend
the raising and expenditure.of such
preliminary funds as may be neces-
sary to put this road in shape to
be considered as by the CAPT
talists who will be asked to.take its
bonds.
