of $500. He had Investigated certain
charges of friction between Mr.. Craw,
ford and M. Prescott and found th"'"
untrue.
Jefferson responded by rising +"
question of privilege ard saying: ''E''h
or am liar or Mr.. Crawford is a liar.
for the latter told me there was decid-
ed conflict between himself and MIR.
Prescott. in fact Mr.. Prescott had locked
him out Of the office and he had decided
objections to the suitcase.
Simpson moved to table but it was
lost by vote of to 8. It was then
referred to the water works committee,
but that didn't settle 1t.
Jefferson said the city ought to have
no further dealings with the Prescott
company. Wasn't it ridiculous that
this great city of 10000 people had to
lie down and say it couldn't do business
without this concerns consent? This
man had cost the city many thousands
of dollars already and he would cost 1t
many more if allowed to go ahead in
these works. He moved resolution
that the council deem it inexpedient to
sub let any part of Marinette Works to
the Prescott company.
Hale offered as a substitute that the
original resolution be taken out OF the
hands Of the water committee and
passed.
President Cochrane called Vice.Pres-
ident Rowley to the chair and made
vigorous attack on the resolution.
He said that no man with the interest
) of the city at heart would draw such
resolution as the one that had been sub
mitted, for the reason that it did not
mention price to be paid, and further
that it provided that whatever amount
was paid should not be due for 10 or Is
days after the company had had the use
of the works. He moved that Alderman
Hale's motion be laid on the table, and
this was carried. He then called up the
original motion.
Before action could be taken Alder
man Richardson called for adjournment.
This created lively protest, but Chair
man Rowley declared it to be in order, and
on call of the ayes and nays the
council was declared adjourned, leaving
the original resolution in tie hands of
the waterworks committee.

The officer took the coin. and. with

building and Equipment Draws on Nearly
Every Line of Industry.
Those who say the railway question
does not affect them are often thought
less persons. The prosperity OF our
railways affects in one way or another
the whole country. Our railways first
OF all represent an actual money capt.
tai OF oLe-fifth OF the assets OF the re-
public. One out OF every Ave dollars
we possess as n nation. Our railways
employ, or would employ today II pros
porous, over one million persons d.
rect at good wages. One out OF every
twenty-five OF the population WORKING
for living Our railways indirectly
employ many thousands more. and in
one form or another add to the reve-
nue OF another million. Those who
doubt this should look over the daily
wants OF these great distributors OF
work and wages. The wants OF rail-
roads. according to the observation OF
gentleman connected with trans
portation enterprises. are only second
to those OF women. which some French
philosopher has said no man can ever
hcpc to supply. To the casual observer
all that n railroad wants Is roadbcd.

pull them. But growing out OF these

offlca as the public executioner Of
France with record Of 502 official
deaths to his credit. He is very old,
his hand trembles. and his extensive
services should give him the right of
rest. His achievements are known to
all. He has dealt more than 500
wounds. all of which have been fatal,
but not for him. Lately 1t was noticed
that he has become enfeebled: he had
no longer the skill. the smartness OF
his youth. At his 5O2d execution at
Nancy, the other day, he very nearly
bungled the ceremony, and the people
OF that province are very particular.

that he Is the most popular bourreau
