CITY GOVERNMENT.
A Few Pointers Which Our Solons
Would Do Well to Digest.


Would Do Well to Digest.
The recent drop in paving prices in Pitts
burg and Allegheny have caused officials
OF other cities to write for particulars.
Pittsburg has just let contracts for paw
ing sixty-four streets. No. asphalt pave
ment, which has a stone foundation of
six inches, an inch and a half binder, and
the same thickness of top coat. was re-
duced from $3.50 to S1.S5 per square yard.
The favorite asphalt pavement in Pitts
burg is No. Z, which has seven inches of
concrete and two inches of top coat 1t
now costs S1.S7.
Heretofore Booth & Finn got nearly
all the city paving. The Pennsylvania
Asphalt Paving Co., of Philadelphia, and
other competitors appeared in the field,
and forced down prices. All the Philadel-
phia companies proposals were thrown
out because they specified BermudeZ as
phalt instead of Trinidad Lake. Tax
payers entered suit to compel the city
officials TO allow Bermudez to be used.
The case has not yet been called in court.
City officials say the reason they specify
Trinidad asphalt is because it is not an
SUPPLEMENTARY Government.

Public Lavatories Forced Down.

The city of New York is to have public
lavatories, which are so necessary to the
sanitary provisions of all large munich
palities that it is d wonder they have not
been made common in all of the big
American cities years ago. In connection
with the New York lavatories there viii
be public baths and retiring rooms. A
bin authorizing the commissioner of public
works TO erect these buildings was passed
at the last session of the state legislature,
and the city board of estimate and appor-
tionment has now set aside S150,000 to be
used for the realization of the terms of
the act.-City Government.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. 5.-The Pr

The attorney general also gave out the
following opinion yesterday:
Salt Lake City. August 4.
To the Honorable State Board of Equal
ization, Salt Lake City.
Gentlemen-I have before me your IA
vor of August in which you ask 10 be
advised upon the question submitted by
the county assessor of Sanpete county, to-
wit: Docs the county pay the assessor
and deputies in full and draw on the state

county does not know how TO interpret the
law on that subject"
l am of opinion that the provisions of
section l66 of the county government bill,
found on page 81 of the laws OF Utah of
1885 sufficiently answer the above inquiry;
IL provides in substance that the treasurer
and auditor of each county shall. at such

She said that she was not travelling her

THE CONDITION OF THE CROPS.

Washington, July 1.-THE weather
Bureau, in it's report of crop condi-
tions for the week ending July 18th,
saws: Upon the whole the weather
conditions of the week ending July
18th were not so favorable as those of
the two preceding weeks.
The excessively heavy rains in Nir-
ginia, the Carolinas, Eastern Tenpes-
see, Florida and portions of Georgia
and Alabama have proved injurious to
crops, especially in the low lands,
while drought continues in portions
of Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkan-
sas and becoming quite erious in
Minnesota.
Corn has suffered some injury as a
result of heavy rains in the South
Atlantic and East Gulf States.
Cotton has ben damaged by heavy
rains in Virginia. the Carolinas and
Florida. and while there has been too
much rain for cotton in Tennessee the
crop in that State continues in prom
ising condition.
Picking is becoming general III
southwest Texas. Some spring wheat
has been cut in Iowa. The general
condition of this crop is not satisfae-
tory, much from rust being reported
Tobacco continues in promising con
dition, although it has suffered to some
extent from excessive rains in Nir-
ginia, Tenness and Kentucky.

BRYAN WOULD SWEEP INDIANA.
Acknowledgement ketcham Says That
The People Are Now For Silver.

Among the Republican politicians Of
Indiana Attorney General w. \.
Ketcham is one of the shrewdest and
best informed. Two years ago he out
generated John X. Gowdy and the
State Central committee, and was
elected Attorney General in spite of
their opposition. Ketcham discussed
the political situation Friday night
with a party of Cincinnati men. They
were in the sleeper of the Monon train
which left Chicago Friday evening.
IF the election of President were to
he held within a month"; said the At
to1ney General. Bryan would sweep
Indiana, and it is likely that he would
have a majority in Ohio as well. Under
normal conditions Indiana is Demo
cratic by about 3 per cent, and Ohio
is Republican by about per cent.
THE farmers have been swept COM
Pletely off their feet by the silver
craze. I do not think the laboring
people have been so badly affected 1t
is going to be hard work to whip the
people back into line. The only way to
do it is to make the tariff the issue;
and that viii be a difficult thing,
"When men like John r. Frenze1, the
banker, of indianapolis, and Wash
ington Hesing, Of Chicago, bolt the
Democratic party, it helps the free
silver men just that much. People
see these rich men bolt and say: THE
silver men are right; this is a fight
of the people against the bankers, cap
italists, politicians, and lawyers
Every rich man who bolts will drive
a lot of the common people into the
free silver camp.
IF the election were held to-mor-
row." continued Ketcham. "Tllinois
would be the pivot on which the re-
suit would turn. Silver would carry
the solid South, including Maryland
and West Virginia. It would carry
Indiana, Missouri, Kansas, Nevada,
South Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho, Colo
RADIO, Nebraska, and Utah With Hi
nois voting for free silver Bryan would
be elected Cincinnati Post.

FUSION IN BEAUFORT COUNTY.
Co operation Between Republicans and
Populists Assured.


Aurora. N. c., July 15.-(Special.) -
The Pamlico and Beaufort Telephone
Company has completed it's line, and
the section of country from Washing
ton, in Beaufort county, to StoneWaii.
in Pamlico county, is now connected
with the outside world by wire. The
line is So miles long, being the longest
line in the State.
There is now a daily mail to Wash
ington as well as to Newbern. 1t IS
being carried on bicycles, distance
of 80 miles.
This section has the finest crops in
many years, but they are being dam
aged by the heavy rains
A few days ago the old barn IN
which the Bonner murderers had their
midnight meeting was blown down,
and in clearing away the old lumber n
pistol was found, supposed to be the
missing one which could not be To-
Gated in the trial. One by one things
are developing that make 1T more
certain that the proper ones are being
punished.
1T looks now as if there will be flu
sion between the Republicans and
Populists in this county this year. The
Populiats in this section are allopposed
to indorsing the Chicago nominee.
They want straight National ticket
OF their own.

friends in the convention who did not
vote for him for the reasons above
given. Mr.. C. s. Thomas, the leading
Democrat of Colorado, said to me: Il
have read all Of Justice Clark's letters
that have been published in the Arena,
and I recognize that he has no super
Tor as a strong writer in the silver
crusade. He would make an ideal Vice
President" Ex-Congressman White,
of Iowa, and delegates from Californ-
la and other Western States spoke III
terms of equal warmth and heartiness.
There is no doubt in my mind that IT
the nomination had come South, Judge
Clark would have been the lucky man.
Even as it was. he would have been
nominated if he had not served in the
Confederate army. Some men who dld
not object to a Southern man, and
even favored one, were doubtful of the
wisdom of nominating an eX-Confed-
crate soldier.
The gold men were anxious that the
silver men should repeal the two-thirds
rule. And that was one reason why
the silver men would not do it. They
determined not to afford the gold men
that pretext for boiling. Not only
were both candidates nominated by a
two-thirds vote of the convention, but
after hard fight the platform was
adopted by a twothirds majority. l
do not believe in the rule, but rejoice
that the men who had already decided
to bolt could not make its repeal the
pretended cause of their disloynlty.
The silver men showed a wisdom that
paralyzed the manipulators who had
expected to win because ''the silver
men don't understand how to run a
convention, dontcherknow."

Tt was pleasant to meet North Car
olinians resident in Chicago. Mrs.
Knight, who was Miss Helen FowIe,
called on the delegation and was well
coined with true Tar Heel cordiality.
Mr.. and Mrs S. p. ChiIds were at the
depot to meet Mrs. Child's sister, Miss
Maggie Stith, who went out, with the
North Carolina party, to spend
month in Chicago. Mr.. John w. Jack
son, now one of the most prosperous
insurance men in Chicago, and his
brother Samuel S. Jackson, who has
recently made Chicago his home, and
other North CaroInians called on the
delegation, and extended to them true
Tar Heel hospitality. In the delega-
tons from the other States there were
many natives of North Carolina. A
mong them was Mr.. James Osborne,
brother of Frank Osborne, Esq, who
is Assistant District Attorney of New
York city. He says that all talk of
Tammany boiling is ridiculous-that
most of the Tammany Democrats are
red hot silver men and their leaders
could not carry them against the tick
