A special session of the city coun-
Gil was held on Saturday night last.
The finance committee, Mr.. BROTH
erton chairman, made a report OF

Dsllmeyer. On April 1, the balance
in the treasury was s3,256.33.
An ordinance was introduced by
DR.. Forth authorizing the mayor 10
enter into contract with Geo. Baer,
for construction of the new sewer,
and the bond was fixed at $4,000.
Ordinance adopted. Mr.. Brotherton
introduced a resolution requiring

to give warning to pedestrians also
providing for lights on same at night

Additional Dykes.

The attention of the Missouri river
commission should be called to the
fact that the dykes opposite this city
ought to be the extended into the
river at least 800 feet further. At a
low stage Of the river a sand6ar can
be seen between the shore and the
end OF the dykes, which is evidence
sufficient 10 justify the conclusion
that unless those dykes are extended
the channel will not be deep enough
for navigation when the river reaches
its ordinary low stage. The work of
the Missouri river commission at this
point is excellent. 1t has done every
thing that was claimed for 1t aud
more, but still the channel is too wide,
The narrowing Of it 800 feet addit.
ional will be a guarantee Of sufficient
depth of the river to make the river
navigable at oil seasons Of the year
The work ought to be done thi:
spring.

brothers became citizens of JEFF

we're all strangers to our people.
they invested ut once $2O,0 O0 in
he purchase of the Wagner brew
cry. Within one year they added
$50, 1000 worth of improvements
to their plants making $50, 900 in
vested in our city. And now they
contemplate adding about SIS. 900
which will give them the best
brewery and ice plant in Missouri
outside of st. Louis and Kansas
City. After Il residence of only
two years with us they have won
place right in the front of the
procession for business honor, on
Ierprise and public spirit. Whom
it wasrumcrcd some time ago that
hey had sold out there was general
egret and when the people lie lrI.-
ed they had re-purchased the prop
erty it was welcome news o
every citizen. People like tho
Moerschel's are the kind of citi-

Senator j. G. Burrows will give Bay
View resorters a very interesting talk ON
''Can the United States enter on the Coin
ago of Silver at the ratio of 10 to 1?" on
August 9th. Mr.. Burrows thinks not and
will tell why not.
Thousands of cyclists all over the country
will read attentively "What to Avoid in
Cycling" by Sir Benjamin. Ward Richard
son, M. d.. in the North American Review
for August. The value ofsuch contribu-
ton from so eminent source is apparent.
During the twenty-seyen years OF Pro-
lection the average annual decrease In the
interest bearing debt of the country was
$64, TIA, 1884. During the last two years OF
Free-Trade administration the average an
nual Increase In the interest bearing debt of
the United States was sos, $50, 1865.
The impression is general throughout the
state that acts of the last Legislature which
were not given immediate effect, or effect
on some special day, became operative
August 1. The fact is, however. that such
acts will become operative August 80, 80
days after the final adjournment of the leg
islature.
During the eleven months ending May
81, 1894, we sold SO, 430, 1903 bushels Of
American corn in the markets of the world,
but during the corresponding IL months
o only
bushels in the same markets. The smaller
sales by S7,700,OO bushels since the markets
of the world have been thrown open to us
need little explanation from our free trade
friends. While they are about it they
might just as we'll investigate the decrease
of IS, 4OO, 900 bushels in our sales of wheat,
and why the foreigners have taken 1, ACC, 900

A decision of great interest to purchasers
of railroad mileage tickets was rendered in
the court at Findlay, Ohio, Monday, in the
case of Arthur j. Morton, VS.. the l.. E. &
w. railway company. The plaintiff,
ticket broker, purchased a thousand mile
book in an assumed name. After $50 miles
had been used up 1t was confscated by
conductor on the ground that the man who
was using it was not the man in whose
name it was issued. Suit was brought
against the railway company for $l4.2 %, the
value of the mileage still unused. Judg-
ment was rendered in favor of the plaintiff
for the full amount, the court holding that
the ticket could not be claimed by the
railroad company unless its value was prof
fered the owner.
