The Rohampton-Street Assessment

last night as did City Attorney Curtis. Mr..
Denny explained that While he was city at

force the collections of the benefits. At
that time and through subsequent admin
istrations the courts held that the city
could have no relief Decisions by Judge
Brown were read, holding the law TO be
void Mr.. Denny further urged that as
over tWenty-one years had expired, any
claim the city might have had on the real
estate was barred by limitation, in any
event City Attorney Curtis expressed the
opinion that it was but right and just for
the Council to pass the resolutions. On his
suggestion an amendment was prepared
providing that the law shall be invalid so
far as it affects the specific property de-
scribed in the petitions. The total assess

northumberland Forfeit.

mOnstrance-COntrac Forfeit.
A good many of the contractors who bid
on public improvements from time to time
believe that the Board of Public Works
should require bidders to submit certified
checks for a sufficient amount to really
guarantee that they will enter into con-
tracts when bids are awarded to them. The
board now requires each bidder to submit
a check for $780, Several times recently the
board has received excuses from contrac-
tors who prefer to forfeit their checks to
carrying out the contracts, the excuse gen.
orally being that the bid submitted was too
low Another case of this kind happened
yesterday. F. G. Lingenfelter 81 Co. sent
the board a written communication yester-
day, declining to enter into contract for
the construction of main sewer in East
Washington street, extending from Rural
street to the Belt Railroad. The board has
had a good deal of trouble over this work.
1t is now over a month since the contract
was awarded to the firm. AS a result of
it's declination the board will have to adver-
tise again for bids. The work will be great

WHARTON BARKER ON THE SITUA-
TION,

WHARTON BARKER ON THE SITUA-
TION.
In last weeks American, Wharton
Barkers paper, in an article headed
"Populism, Democracy and Political
Chaos" the editor, a silver Republican,
says there are questions other than silver
in issue, and he thinks POpulists ought
to take the lead. We give a few para
graphs in the following:
g" When a great issue is devel-
oping and new questions arising when
mems minds are in a. fOrmulative period
and there is chaos Of views among even
those striving for the same general end,
when party lines are changing and the
necessary realignment lacking in direc-
tion, then is the greatest need for lead
ership to bring order out Of chaos and
to give direction to that which lacks di-
rectiOn.
"The new and greater struggle for
emancipation of our producing classes
from industrial slavery is no more COM
prOmisable than the old struggle for
emancipation of the negro chattel from
slavery. The new struggle can no more
be narrowed than the old. The party
that would strive to narrow 1t cannot
be trusted. The enslavement Of our pro-
ducing classes to an Oligarchy Of wealth
and the struggle for emancipation is de-
veloping, and as it progresses new issues
arise. And these issues must be met by
the party that would lead successfully.
& #s% Il "
Wherefore it will not suffice for those
who seek to direct the struggle for the
emancipation of our producing classes
from the slavery Of poverty, to tie them
selves down to the issue raised by the
abuse of our monetary system. The is
sue raised by the abuse of our transpOr-
tatiOn system must be equally met and
tho issues raised by the abuse of our
protective tariff system; by our system
of national taxation which throws an
undue share of the burdens Of govern
ment on the poor, and by the usurpatiOn
of legislative and executive authority by
the courts, in the interest Of centralized
capital, cannot be ignored.
\ =
'It may be that Mr.. Bryan and other
Democratic leaders who seek to tie the
Democratic party down to the silver
issue, and make the struggle for the new
emancipation on that inadequate issue
alone, would develop in Office,
though failing to develop out, arise to
the necessities Of the occasion, .
bring about the national ownership of
our transportation facilities and do
whatever else was needed to bring about
the emancipation of our people from in
dustrial slavery.
Indeed it is said, let us get into the
saddle on the silver issue, and then we
can take up other issues But the party
led by men who lack courage to avow
their position on other great issues than
the silver question, cannot be
trusted in the saddle.

They MuRt Pay.

The supreme court declared valid the
law OF 1898 authorizing the governor to
appoint a special appraiser to appraise
lands or other property in any county
when the people by petition stated it
to be their belief that property had
been undervalued by the assessors.
The effect of this decision is that the
Weyerhausers, Morton D. Hull & Co..
and the Winona Iron company, as well
as other owners of pine lands will have
to submit to an increase of about 100
per cent in the taxes on their pine land
holdings in Itasca county, and that
they will have to pay the state the diff
ference between the value at which the
lands we're assessed and their real
value from. 1888 up to date.
