The report of the Superintendent of
Streets and City Surveyor in regard to
a city wharf was read, as we'll as one
from Corporation Counsel, stating that
the railroad laid no claim to title to the
water front between M and N streets
and presenting a letter from William F.
Heron on that point.
/ Devine thought the Southern Pacific
Company had forfeited every right it
possessed on the city front and that the
board should proceed with the matter
and not let it drop. The cost of con-
struction of the wharf should be pro-
vided for in the tax levy.
Leonard said that the owners of a.
steamer that wish to land three times
a week were anxious for the construc-
tion of a wharf. He suggested that the
Levee Committee confer with the com
mittee from the Chamber of Commerce
The matter was referred to the Mayor,
President of the Board and Superinten-
dent of Streets to confer with the COM
mittee from the Chamber of Commerce.
The Native Sons were granted per-
mission to stretch banner across J
street, announcing the Admission Day
excursion

election to decide on the construction
of municipal lighting plant, and quot
ing the law, giving an opinion that it
could not be held on the same day as
the general city election and suggesting
that before the ordinance is passed. an
estimate Of the probable cost be made
Tozer moved that the matter be in
definitely postponed and Mckay said
it could not get five votes in the board.
Devine took the floor in favor of the
ordinance and made a long speech. say
| ing that he was satisfied that there
would never again be competition in
street lighting.
Davis would like to see the city own
its own plant, but did not think it
could compete with water power.
Mckay said experts had told him a
system would cost 100000.
Kent said that experts had told him
and other members that a complete sys-
tenn could be built for S65,O00
Leonard said he also looked up the
cost of a plant and was given to un-
derstand that the city can put up a
plant for much less than S65, 900. Most
cities of the United States are getting
their lighting much cheaper than this.

to put the matter before the people

of Commerce had not yet taken up

POLITICS AND THE JUDGSHIP,
The republican papers Of this
circuit r raising a hullabaloo
about the silver men dragging the
judgship into politics. Have the
silver men conducted the campaign
along political lines any more
vigorously than have the republi-
cans? Republican primaries were
held, republican candidates chosen
to attend republican conventions
and the republican judicial conven-
ton nominated a republican for
judge. Every republican paper
has his name at the head of the
column under the head, "Republi-
can ticket and every republican
paper IN the circuit supports this
republican candidate. Why? Sim
ply because Mr.. Wilson is a
REPUBLICAN. And then these same
sheets howl themselves hoarse
about the silver men dragging the
]udgshlp contest into politics.
Consistency IS a Jewel that don't
seem to be making its headquarters
IN the republican newspaper Offices
OF the seventh judicial circuit these
balmy days. The office of circuit
judge is filled in much the same
way as our other Offices and this
howl from the republican press is
made because no other argument
can be hashed up.

blue republican friends think Of
such a pledge made to. democrats
and populists? He is not even
true to his own supporters. OF
course, the proposition was re-
specially declined by the popu-
lists and democrats, and the snap
promptly given away.
THE UNION states that Wilson
is not true to even the supporters
in his own party. He has proved
this within the past few weeks and
he proved it two years ago. He
pledged himself tc his good Meth
dist brethren to do his utmost to
defeat resubmission Of the prohibit
ton question and at the same time
promised the liquor dealers to re-
main silent and let the whole
problem alone.
The UNION knows whereof it
speaks IN these matters and S. E.
Wilson and his cohorts have al
ready proved that the best inter
ests of the people of this circuit
demand hat this corporation lob
byist and two-faced candidate meet
with a crushing defeat. The
UNION sincerely believes that the
disreputable methods being en-
ployed by this man Wilson and
his managers will bring we'll merit
ed defeat to him. The people of
this circuit want a man who is
clean morally, who is plain and
outspoken on every issue and a
mar who with his qualifications
for the position is a MAN through
and through. That man in not
S. E. Wilson,, but it is Levi Nc
Gee, our next circuit Judge. Vote
for him.

The Black Hills union. [volume] (Rapid City, Pennington County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1889-1904, 1897-10-15

The UNION has it pretty straight
that Wilson, the railroad republi-
can candidate for circuit Judge,
has arranged for a special edition
of one newspaper in each county
of the circuit to be circulated
broadcast just before election.
Matter is now being prepared and
a desperate attempt is being made
to stampede votes enough to sad
die this corporation jumping-jack
onto the people as circuit judge.
The scheme won't work.
The Black Hills union. [volume] (Rapid City, Pennington County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1889-1904, 1897-10-15

Let every silver man do his duty
and get out OF vote on election day.
Without a just judiciary reform
measures and all good law is of no
avail. Elect MCGEE Judge of this
circuit. Nc man like Wilson with
a corporation string attached is
qualified to sit on the bench in this
circuit.

DINGLEY DEFICIT BILL,

The Dingley tariff bill is keep
ing up its record as the producer
of a deficit.
1t is doing more in this direc-
ton than it's fercest foes a%nticipa-
ted. In spite Of the optimistic
views of the secretary of the treas
ury, the cold facts, show by re-
turns from the custom house,
demonstrate that up to date there
is no wealth in the Dingley bill.
There is a good deal of enter
tanning literature in relation to
this tariff measure, and as a mat
ter of record it is we'll to refer to
just three items of interest in this
connection. They are as follows:
First, Nelson Dingley, Jr., said in
congress-, as reported in the Con-
gressional Record of March "a.
1897: Sour problem is to provide
adequate revenue from duties on
imports to carry on the govern
ment.' So much for what was
needed.
Second, the Dingley bill was
passed July "a, 1897. The gov
eminent revenue, expenditure and
deficit frnm Aug. up to the sec
ond week in September stands as
follows:
Revenue. Expenditures. Deficit.
1897 $2o,SSo,1ss ~S43,eoo,o47 S17,116,s5s
1896 3,s79.o5s 45,o9s,o76 Io.71s.sI7
1895 3s,o27,474 43,o:4,Ss4 4+26,eoc
So much for results.
Third, Senator N. w. Aldrich
as reported in the Congressional
Record of May IS, 1897, said
"The adoption of a bill
which should fail in this purpose,
which should create All additional.
deficiency in the immediate future,
which would require a further issue
of bonds to meet current expendi.
, lures, would certainly be fatal tc

Don't forget that S. E. Wilson,
the present republican candidate
for circuit judge, pronounces Lew
MCGEE as one of the ablest men in
the circuit for that position. Will
son knows.

The Black Hills union. [volume] (Rapid City, Pennington County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1889-1904, 1897-10-15

The UNION can name three
of the most prominent men in the
republican party in this circuit who
have plainly conceded Wilson's de-
feat for judge.

D~ESPICABLE METHODS.

have undertaken the Job of sad
ding a corporation tool onto the
people of this circuit as judge are
resorting to despicable methods in
a desperate effort to elect their
man.
One of the most disreputable
acts Of the judicial campaign thus
FAR was the killing of the Edgemont
Advocate, the only newspaper
supporter of MCGEE in Fall River
county. The entire play shows
ahe intention of those who carried
it out. A party at Edgmont held
a claim against the Advocate and
Wilson, the republican candidate
aor circuit Judge, was in charge of
the collection. Three weeks ago
the Advocate came out vigorously
tor MCGEE as opposed to Wilson.
What was the result? The claim
was pressed, the Advocate placed
IA charge Of the sheriff and Editor
Sanford, then in charge, was de-
med the issuing the paper which
was ready to go to press when the
sheriff took charge. Editor San
ford made this request, but it met
with an impudent refusal. Why?
s Cause that issue of the Advocate
supported MCGEE vigorously. 1t
must not be issued. At this time
Judge William Gardner's opinion
regarding the issue of the paper
was secured. Being a Wilson
man udge Gardner ruled that the
paper must not be issued so long
as the case was in court undecided,
That settled it and the Advocate
did not appear last week. its non
appearance killing the legality of
the paper and practically cut
OF what newspaper support Judge
MCGEE had in Fall River comfy.
lhc entire transaction was a put
UP job of the rankest sort.
But the perfidy of Wilson and
his managers does not end here.
