THE city council Saturday night
finally completed the contract with
t he Mankato Gas and Electric Light
Co. at the reduced prices hereto
fore published. The public, as
we'll as the council, is to be con-
graduated upon the settlement of
this vexed question, and for five years
at least we are promised immunity
fr ON the annual chickering's which
have stirred the community for the
past three years. Now that the old
company has the contract, one that is
fair to both sides, the FREE PRESS, in
common with all consumers of gas,
sincerely hopes that the quality of
gas will be improved upon. 1t is a
fact indispuGable and undeniable that
the quality has been such as to per-
pick the housewife very much when
the hour for preparing meals arrived.
1t lacks the heating quality necessary,
and this defect, it would seem, can
be remedied with little difficulty.
The company, for it's own protection,
and for the betterment of the service
to patrons, should apply remedy,
and then everything will 60 on swim

NEWS from the yellow fever dis
tricts in the south are to the effect
that the disease is spreading to con-
siderable extent, but the excitement
ment does not seem to be as great as
at first. Two-thirds of the popula-
tion of Jackson, Miss. has fled and
business of all kinds there is suspend
ed. The quarantine regulations in
many places are said to be very poor.
The outbreak has occurred so late in
the season, that if the change of
weather that has been experienced
here. extends south, it is hoped that
it will put an end to it's spread. The
death rate from the disease is not as
great as heretofore, as the physicians
seem to be far more successful in
treating I'll.

A STREET FAIR.

In our local news columns last even.
ing we gave brief account Of street
fairs that have been held in Winona
and Faribault this week. These fairs
are becoming popular through the
northwest, and many cities in this
and adjoining states are taking up
with the idea
The board of trade in this city has
appointed committee to look into
the matter and report as to the FEAST
bility of holding such fair in this
city. 1t is to be hoped that the COM
mittee will approve of such fair and
recommend holding one next month.
There is plenty Of time to push the
matter to successful end if it is
taken hold of rightly. and that is
what should be done. 1t ought to
take but little urging to get every
manufacturer and merchant in the
city to take part, and if they would
do so a most successful two days fair
could be held. Next month the
farmers will have their work we'll
along, and their crops all taken care
of, and would be in shape to make
splendid display, and there is no city
OF its size that could make better
showing in the way of its home pro-
ducts than can Mankato. And moth
ing would do more to advance the in
terests of the city and the country
tributary to 1T than such fair.
And if in connection with a fair of
this kind, our buyers of all farm pro-
ducts would divide their profits with
the farmer by making special offer
for such products and so as far as pos
sible making the event general
market day for all kinds of farm pro-
duce, it would do much to crown such
an affair with success.
The matter is one that is well worth
considering and pushing, and the
FREE PRESS hopes to see it taken up
and pushed, and pushed hard.
