Police Sure He is Wanted, but Cnnno:

The police have so far been unable to as
certain where f. w. Woodson, alias Fuller,
who is held here on suspicion, is wanted.
Chief Brennan is satisfied that the man
is crook, but he cannot learn of any Sc
rious charge against him. According to
Fullers own statements, he is too strong
to work and in giving an account of him.

has not worked more than five or six weeks

The House numbering Question.


Has not the proposition to reminder the
houses in this city been discussed long
enough? 1t has been before the people
for years, and, as far as we know, there
has never been any opposition to it. On
the contrary, it seems to be agreed that
the REMEMBERING should be done at once.
why. then, doesn't the CRY fathers sto,
discussing the question and decide to
have the work done?
Alderman Kolshorn's committee. which
has charge of the matter, made a report
to the council Wednesday night, and there
is no reason the report shouldn't be acted
upon without further delay. Why wait
for another administration to so over the
ground that has been already gone over
many times? There has been talk enough.
The time is ripe for action.
The condition Of affairs is certainly bad
enough to require remedying at once. A.
derman Kolshorn says that of the 12,o00
houses in the city 5000 are not numbered
at all. and 5000 others are numbered with
letters and fractions. In the southern
part of the city only seventy-five houses
are officially numbered. The street cor
ners are nearly all without signs. No one
not familiar with the streets can tell one
street from another.
All are agreed that the houses should
be remembered and that signs designating
the streets should be placed on street
corners. That being the case the council
should order the work begun immediate
~ 1t will take several months to do It.
There is much preliminary work, and the
signs and numbers cannot be made in a
day 1t Will take many weeks to make
them. If, therefore. the work should be
begun now it would take until next win
ter to complete it.
No doubt council will receive some good
suggestions as to how the houses should
be numbered. Perhaps it has already re-
ceived some. We publish communications
elsewhere in this issue containing sug-
gestions, all of which are worthy of very
careful consideration. The Morning News
has two suggestions to make. One is that
the numbers be so placed when possible.
that they can be seen at night, and the
other IS that when short streets run into
longer ones the name of the longer street
be given to the shorter one. 1t is con-
fusing to have two streets bearing the
same name one being practically an ex-
tension of the other.

The New York Cotton Exchange adopt
ed a series Of resolutions on Tuesday IN
which it declared that there could be no
permanent prosperity until the money
question vas settled. The uncertainty in
regard 20 the monetary system is par
aIyzins business and industries.
in one of I;s resolutions the cotton ex-
change says: we consider a sound and
stable currency absolutely Indispensable
to our national and commercial pros
perity. ana the chief means OF restoring
confidence al home and abroad" The
exchange also declares that It IS unequiv-
ocauy opposed 10 any debasement Of the
currency. and SIS in favor Of maintaining
the present sold standard of value
the standard that is recognized
By the great commercial nations
Of the world II asks that the conven-
lions of the two great parties clearly and
distinctly declare in favor OF the gold
standard and against free silver coinage,
so that the country may enjoy the pros
perity which its mighty resources Justify
and warrant"
Cotton planters should make a thorough
study Of the silver question. Those who
do SO viii come 10 the conclusion that it is
to their interest 10 have a sound and
stable currency They want gold. or money
as good as gold. for their cotton. II our
currency should be placed on a silver
basis they would receive for their cotton
money having purchasing power only
about half as great as the present cur
rency They would md that at the
end Of the year, when they
had paid for their supplies, they were
not nearly so well on as they would
have been had the currency been kept
sound.
Cotton is mere than . cents pound
higher now than 1T was in 1884, and it
would be much higher than it is except
for the uncertainty in respect to our mon
etary system. The agitation in behalf Of
silver has checked prosperity and made
it Impossible FOR the mills TO dispose of
their products. Consequently the demand
for cotton is comparatively light
The silver question must be settled at
the election next fail. If it is settled in
favor of the existing standard of value
we shall have better times at once. If it
is settled in favor of silver and a depre-
ciatod currency we shall have panics, com
merc,al and financial disasters and the
worst times this country has ever seen.

A Portable halfway Needed.

If the county commissioners intend to
carry on their work of road building it
would be advisable for them to consider
the question of securing portable rail-
road. The present method of moving ma
terial from the railroad to the roads that
are being constructed is slow and ex-
pensive.
The expense of a narrow gauge, porta-
Bile railroad, arranged in sections so as to
be easily moved and put together quickly
would not be very great. Such road
would be admirable for the transporta-
ton of road building material There are
dump cars which are intended for use on
roads of this kind.
There are many miles Of roads in this
county to be improved if the county
commissioners carry out their plans, and
it would be good policy to provide at once
such facilities as may be necessary TO do
the work economically and expeditiously.
The county commissioners have pur>
chased a steam roller, which was a great
~ needed machine in carrying on the
county work. 1t contributes a good deal
to tho success of road building. If a
portable railroad is purchased the county
will be in a position to build roads eX-
peditiously and economically.

Republicans Are After Him.
From the New York Advertiser Rep).

The great business interests of the Uni
ted States cannot be inundated or bull
dozed. The men who are at their head are
not bent on the nomination of any particu-
lar candidate. They are not concerned
with personalities, but with principles
They want sound money based on the solid
rock of gold in order that the funds they
hold in trust for hundreds of thousands of
citizens may be safe and that the country
may prosper. That is why they demand
a gold standard plank in the St. Louis
platform. 1t is why they unanimously
condemn the dishonest policy of coward
ice, humbuggery and silence which McKin-
ley's managers have adopted. Every days
continuance of that policy is a serious in
jury 10 business and country. The nation
is waiting to hear from Canton. Why does
not MAJ. Mckinley speak?
