ExORBITANT GARBAGE 6ID8.

Bids submitted for the disposal Of the
city's garbage show startling differ
ences which indicate the need Of the
utmost caution on the part of the Com
missioner Of Public Works TO see that
the city does not pny an exorbitnnt
price for the service. There are hints
Of an organized attempt to cxtort mon.
ey from the taxpayers Of Chicago on
these contracts, and II lies with Com
missioner McGann to prevent II.
or ten bids the highest was $3.15s,OO
and the lowest 1881 .351. In comparing,
something must he allowed for differ
ences In method and differences In re-
sponsibility Of the firm. The highest
bid IL for the crematOry method. The
lowest Is for the Wright method, which
Is the system In use In Leeds. England.
In Leeds there Is population Of 367,-
600 people. furnishing between $4,000
and 10000 tons Of refuse year. This
Is harmed In devices known rs de
structors" mt an annual cost Of about
$4,000. and produces about $4.5OO
worth Of mortar. making the cost each
year per inhabitant about S.Of05. In
Chicago Is n population Of 1,SOO.OOO.
The bid for dispOsing Of ChicagOs gar
bage by the Wright, or Leeds. system
II 81. .351, which means about $tnDj
for ccah inhabitant for five years. or
about twice as much year for each
inhn bitant as II costs the corporation
Of Leeds. We must consider, OF course.
the gicater cost Of collecting here on
account Of the vaster area Of Chicago
In proportion to Its population. the risks
Of undertaking In new place ana by
new management, and the right Of the
private contractor to his profits. But
when these things are taken into ac-
count II would appear that the lowest
bid OF the ten II not unrensonnbly low,
and not even the total destruction OF
the garbage. leaving no product, IL
enough to Justify bids from two to III
most three times rs high.
The payment Of some Of the sums for
which the service II offered would
mean nothing less than extOrtiOn. espe
cially rs the contractors would make
more by the sale Of n number Of valua'

RiSKY BUSINESS VENTURES.

Reckless speculation Ii the most pro-
life panic producer with which this
country has ever had to deal. There Is
a tendency Mt present, caused and fOs-
tered by rising prices and great gold
discoveries, for people to plunge into all
sorts OF risky Investments, ana to lend
money on weak security to every crank
with a new money making idea. For
this reason the warning Of the acting
comptroller Of the currency, George Nj.
Coffin, against business which partakes
of the nature of gambling Is well-timed
ana to he commended. Speculation Is
Just as dangerous now as It ever was.

is called to Payettes' advertisement
in this issue, and we wish to add
that when the road is built she will
have wonderful development and
growth. She deserves it for her
superhuman efforts in securing what
seemed a physical impossibility for
her to get.

A rare and beautiful phenomenon
WAS Witnessed by many Of Weiser's
people about ten O'Clock on Monday
morning last The sky was over
cast by light gray clouds, not suf-
ficiently dense to entirely obscure the
sun, and the temperature was about
right for snow
A very large light colored circle
with the zenith Of the heavens for its
center, eucirced about one half Of
the visible surface of the heavens
Exactly in the line of the circle were
the sun and two light halos, or par
helia, (sun dogs SO situated that the
circle was thus divided into three
equal parts Around the sun was
another circle resembling q rainbow
in colors, and where il crossed the
larger circle were unusually bright
spots which were so dazzling in their
brightness that the naked eye could
endure but glance at the brilliant
celestials In other parts might be
seen smaller circles and parts of
circles, some of which were almost
as bright and us beautiful as a rain
bow, while others were of whitish
color
These phenomena are caused by
the passage of light from the sun
through the aqueous vapor surround
ing the earth, and are generally at
trihuted to the presence of minute
snow crystals in the upper strata OF
the air, and they appear usually
when cirrus or cirro-stratus clouds
exists.
