70 PROTECT home LABOR
Alderman Moran Insists Upon
His Foreign Workmen
Resolution.

With a view to protecting nome labor
putting a stop to the engagement of
foreign and cheap labor by local con-
tractors who do public work. Alderman
Moran a few weeks ago secured the pas
sage by the Aldermen of a resolution re-
questing the Street and Water Commits
siollers to insert IN all contracts for pub
lie work a clause making 1t compulsory
for contractors to hire resident labor.
The Street and Water Commissioner ig-
nored the resolution ard 50 did all the
other branches of the city government un-
der the control of Republicans. At the
last meeting of the Alderman, Mr.. Moran
complained that the other branches of
the city government were discourteous to
the Aldermen. citing as an instance the
disposition shown toward his resolution.
Mr.. Moran said he had been told that
Cooperation Counsel Blair had said that
a resident labor clause could not be ieg-
ally inserted in contracts. This class of
advice from the city's law officer did not
SUIT Mr.. Moran and he demanded that thu
Corporation Counsel be requested to fur
ntsh the Board with q written opinion on
the subject. Last night the Corporation
Counsel sent the following letter to the
City Clerk
in reply to your letter of the 18th inst.
in which you say the Board of Aldermen
requests you to procure from me a reply
TO their resolution relating to the inser-
ton of a clause in all city contracts for
improvements requiring the contractors
to employ only persons who are citizens
and residents of this CITY," please say
to the Board OF Aldermen that their com
munscation was sent by me to the Office of
the City Attorney. This Office has nothing
to do with the drawing of contracts fer
the city. All that work IS lone in the
office Of the Corporation Attorney. and
for that reason l thought it proper to
send that communication there in order
that the Board might get the construction
of the Corporation Attorney on their reso-
luton. Personally my belief is that such
a clause would be absolutely void and
would tend to all sorts of embarrassments
if inserted"
The communication was filed, but Mr..
Moran is not yet satisfied. He now in
sists upon hearing from the City Attor-
rey on the subject, and asks that officer
wherein 1t will be Illegal to insert the
resident labor clause in contracts.
The Aldermen are of the opinion that
1t is perfectly legal to enforce the en-
ployrnent of resident labor and they pro
pose making a fight to have it DONE.

GREAT RACES AT THE FAIR.

Those who attended the lola Fail

faction that Mr. A. G. Jordan, who
was starter then has been employed
in that capacity this year. This fact
makes il certain that there will not
be any "monkeying" at all, a little
bit. When "Long Jordan" is in the
stand a driver either drives or gets
offthe "bike."
Mr.. Jordan is at Garrett this week
and be writes our folks that he thinks
at least twenty-five horses will come
down from there to enter in our races
next week. And as there are seven
entries of horses that have not been
at Garnett, it is certain that we will
have the finest field we have had yet.
The track is ia fine condition and
there will surely be some great races.

A RIDIUULOUs FAKE.

The following, claiming to be dis.
patch from Fit. Scott, appeared in the
Pittsburg Headlight recently:
From what is thought to be perfectly reli-
able authority 1t is learned that the Palmer
Oil company of Cleveland. o., which has,
during the last few years, sunk numerous
gas wells in Allen county, near lola. are
making preparations to pipe gas from their
wells to this city, Nevada, Mo-, and possibly
Parsons. and that they intend drilling more
wells between here and lola. The reason
for this move on the part of the company is
explained as follows:
1t is claimed that a few weeks ago when 1t
was proposed to locate a Lanyon smelter at
lola, that the Palmer Oil Company donated
gas well and $1,000, but that in the mean
time the citizens of lola have formed and in
cOrporated a company for the purpose of
drilling gas wells. and the council refuses
to give the Palmer company a franchise to
lay their pipes in the city. For this reason
the company is unable tn utilize its gas and
now proposes to pipe 1t to neigh boring cities.
Of course the whole story is q
ridiculous and inexeusa BILE fabrication.
The Palmer Oil Company is hunting
for oil, and has never talked for a
minute of piping its gas anywhere.
The Palmer Oil Company did not do
nate an oil we'll or $1,000 or anything
else to the Lanyon smelter. And the
Palmer Oil Company has not asked,
and therefore has not been refused,
franchise to lay mains in the city.
The truth is this: The Northrup
estate donated gas well to the Lam
yOns. The citizens OfIola contributed
money to pay the expense of laying
mains from the well to the smelter.
The ditch for these mains has been
dug without objection from any
quarter, and in another week the
connection will be completed.
1.-THE manufacturing enterprises of
FIT. Scott, Nevada and Parsons want
to use lola gas, why, let them move
over here and use it. They might as
well come first as last for it is only
question of time when they will have
to come, or go out of business.

,necial 10 the Indianapolis Journal.

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
ST. LOUIS, June 1--WE have won the
fight. and the platform will specifically be
for straight-out gold PLATFORM said Sen
ator Henry Cabot Lodge this morning.
There Is every indication that the bril-
liant young Senator from Massachusetts
is correct. Mark Hanna comedies that just
now there is no doubt that gold has won
the fight: the committee on resolutions will
have, from present appearances, a strong
majority favoring the Endorsement OF 1.-The
present gold standard" The election of
Senator Foraker. of Ohio. to be chairman
of the committee. which was yesterday
practically conceded, will now be antag-
onized by the friends of Senator Lodge.
Mr.. Foraker has hitherto deemed the use
of the word gold unnecessary. Mr..
Lodge wants the word ''unequivocally."
Ever since the Eastern delegates began
to come in the sentiment for gold has been
growing The Eastern men went to work
systematically. Their leaders = Messrs.
Platt, Quay and Lodge-met and the roll
OF the delegates was carefully gone over.
Every man was designated as for gold,
against gold or doubtful A list of State
delegations was thus obtained. and 1t was
