City officials are seriously considering the
advisabilty Of making a levy next year for
the payment of fire hydrant rentals. Ever
since the city was organized the rentals
have been paid out cf the judgment fund,
although the amount is supposed to be
taken out OF the fire and water fund. At
the present time the city is paying 500 a
year each for 1l3 hydrants and SO a year for
three hydrants which are placed in the
middle OF blocks thus making a total Of
So SO year for hydrant rental. Figuring
on the assessed valuation Of this year which
was $1.6Sl,OOO. it would be necessary to
make a levy Of AS mills BY doing this the
judgment fund would be relieved and just
that much money could be used to pay
outstanding claims against the city The
water works company still has claims
against the city for something over $4,000
and water fund and the police fund is also
needed The 3-mill levy this year brings
into the fire and water fund only $i274,
that amount being 50 per cent Of the reve-
nue. from 3-mill levy The fire department,
as now constituted, costs the taxpayers in
the neighborhOod Of $4,000 year and addi-
tiOna apparatus and horses are sorely
needed Eghty-hve per cent Of the 5-mill
levy for police purposes brings into the
treasury $7l57 which is not enough. by a
couple of thousand dollars to maintain the
department on the present basis.
The amount 10 be levied for fire and
water purposes and for police is regulated
by a state law and It would be necessary
TO change this law before an increased levy
could be made for these departments.

A STATE or AMERICANS.
North Cnrolinn's Population Almost
ENclmslNcIN nnrm In the Stnlc.

Exclusively Born in the state
North Carolina iI one of the Oldest States
in respect to settlement. having been first
colonizei in 1887. 1t is one of the thirteen
original states, says the New York sun and
by reason of its extensive seacoast and good
ports has always been easily accessible to
immigrants Yet in the whole United States
there Ia not one of the forty-fve which has
smaller foreign born population than North
Carolina, and this peculiar distinction it has
retained for a good deal more than a century
by the federal census of 1890 there were
100000 native born inhabitants of North
Carolina and only 300 born out of the
state. North Carolina's percentage In fact
IL 80 much lower than that OF all the other
states that 1t appears almost Insignificant.
North Dakota, at the top OF the list. has so
per cent foreign born population. Minnesota
90, Wisconsin A, Rhode Island -. New York
30, Connecticut 30, New Jersey % Illinois
2S, New Hampshire %, Ohio H. MARYLAND 10
Indiana Z and Louisiana 4. North Carolina
percentage Is one-6fth Of per cent, and it
has at no time been much higher
This fact being undisputed, the question
naturally arises, what Is the cause? Some
say that il Is due 10 the tact that North
Carolina is a state practically without cities
and that a9 the foreign born population of
every state is TO be found chiefly IN the
large cities the case IL eauity explained but
such an explanation unfortunately. does not
cover the case. North Carolina has one city
Wilmington with a population in excess OF
10000, and Raleigh Charlotte and Aeheyille
have more than 10000 population each
Moreover, IL is not always large cities that
count in the United States for foreign born
population. The state Of Iowa, for Instance
With only one city in excess Of $4,000 in
habitants contains 20 per cent Of foreign born
population. North Dakota. too which was at
the head Of the list Of states in respect TO
foreign born population by the last census
did not at that time have a city with a
population as large as Asheyille, y. c. Some
other explanation must therefore be found
and perhaps the most plausible is the fact
that Virginia, being the arena OF the hardest
fighting between the hostile armies during
the civil war, the tide OF immigration which
followed strongly while II lasted was diverted
from North Carolina, which lies Immediately
south OF Virginia and thus practically the
state was cut OF from this supply. Before
the war, OF course when slave labor ruled
the industrial market there was no large
foreign immigration into any Of the southern
states with the exception OF Louisiana and
Texas Oddly enough while there are only
300 foreign born inhabitants returned by
the last federal census, there We're LIZA
Indians, and II seems a strange state Of
affairs that In any American commonwealth
on the Atlantic border the proportion OF
Indians to foreign born citizens should be 80
high.

There was considerable hustling yester-
day among the candidates for director OF
the Transmississippi Exposition in the mat
ter Of securing proxies. Quite a number Of
stockholders did not know that the proxies
issued for the October election were void
and that new ones would have to be made
out. The discovery OF this fact caused the
hustling All stockholders who have not
paid up the 3 per cent assessment On the
stock will not be allowed to vote next

From the fact that South Omaha citizens
subscribed to only 5000 shares of stock it
is not thought that the city is entitled o
more han one representative on the board Of
directors. The business men at the exchange
took . 1000 shares, as did also the stock yards
company. The votes of South Omaha peo-
pie will not cut much Of a figure in the con-
test on account Of the small number Of

Of some OF the large Omaha corporations

tors as to a course of procedure. He said

Senator Harris. a democratic member OF
the finance committee, said that he would
resist by every legitimate means any mees-
ure calculated to increase the tariff. lie
added that II more revenue was needed, 10
could be easily obtained by the increase OF
the tax on beer.
Senator Pugh of Alabama predicted that
there would be no legislation at this ses-
sion aud added that he would vote for in
creaslng the tax on beer. The senator was
asked concerning Cuba and expressed his
sympathy with the island, but said he did
not favor any action by the United States
which would Involve the country in war
This is directly opposite from the position of
his colleague, Senator Morgan. who believes
that recognition of Cuba would mean war
with Spain but favors 1t, nevertheless.
Representative Catchngs OF Mississippi
said there could be no tariff legislation at the
short session. nor an additional tax imposed

made through him There have been, he
