Aid. Andrews: ''I think that Mr..
Snow is too high in his estimate of
the bonus that will be needed. I
think that street railway line can
be obtained for $40 or not over SIS a
light above the lowest ordinary
price. l would not favor going above
SIS as a bonus, and don't think that it
would be Necessary. The people who
are figuring on the basis that the city
can get 1000 candle power arc lights
for $50 or s65 year, all night service,
are wrong, in my opinion, and this
would be shown to be the case if bids
for lighting only were obtained"

The FREE PRESS Saturday forenoon
interviewed all of the aldermen in
relation to the proposed granting OF
bonus through street lighting con-
tract to secure an electric street rail
way, with the following result:
Aid. Bradley: II don't feel war
ranted after the vote cast by the peo-
pie in voting to go on and contract
with any company and give it ten
or fifteen years franchise unless an
other expression is had from the peo-
ple to that effect. | don't think that
we have right to go on and give any
considerable bonus to any company in
the form of additional prices for
street lighting to get street rail-
way. According to my nearest calcu-
lation, 1 figure that a bonus of S35 to
$40 light year above the ordinary
price of street lighting would be re-
uuired in order to secure an electric
street railway. 1t would amount to
nearly $4,000 year. which would be a
tax of two dollars for each head of
family in the city, on'the average. L
don't think that the council would be
justified in making such contract
with any company, although this will
have to be done if we get street
railway, asSno company will put it in
without the light contract attached,
as we all know.
ST will not vote to pay over 500
each for arc lights in order to secure
a street railway, and I will not say |
whether / will vote that much. l
will not stand in the way if small
bonus will secure the street cars, but
L will never vote for lights at S115 a
year again. am in favor of letting
the matter rest where it is for the
present."

TO OUR SILVER REPUBLICANS.

We believe that every man should
vote his true sentiments regardless of
former party affiliations. If you
sincerely believe in the declarations
of the Chicago platform and all that
Bryan, Tillman, Altgeld and Pen.
nOyer stand for, then vote for Bryan
and Watson. If You have come to
the honest conclusion that the doc
trIne of states rights, against which
your party, your party's nominee,
possibly yourself, fought, is a safe
doctrine for the maintenance of the
Union; if you believe that this gov
ernment can be safely entrusted to
the influence which such men as Till
man will appropriately exercise over
it in case Bryan Is elected; if you
believe that the contention which
you and your party have made all
these years, that the employer of the
cheap labor of Europe and Asia
should not be allowed to have the
benefits of our markets without pay
ing something toward the maintain
ance of our government is wrong
if you think that the plan of James
G. Blaine, as carried into effect dur
ing the administration of President
Harrison, by which our foreign trade
was so largely increased through re-
ciprocity, was wrong oil unwise; if
you believe that this nation, which
has more than doubled its national
wealth since 1870, has not prospered
Under the present financial system.
then vote for Bryan, for he stands
for all these.
By voting for Bryan you will ex.
press your opinion. that you were
blind all these many years, and are
just now given your\sight by the
magic of the young lawyer from Ne
braska, man who has thus far never
done anything to build up what yoJ
believed was wise national policy
and whose only efforts in nationa
affairs has been IN the line of tearing
down the policy of protection ant
reciprocity.
Before you cast your vote TO
Bryan, however, be sure you are no
overlooking your past conclusions
found. after wears Of study and re
Election, be sure you are voting 70
just what you want; and beng salts
fed. do not hesitate to vote TO
Bryan and Watson. But do not re
fer to yourself as Republican, TO
you will have discarded all that i
essential to Republicanism. B
