with the budget cut down as 1t now IL
to the lowest notch, for the town
council to lay aside any Significant
amount for water works. On tue
Sl55, 600 assessed value of u town
pro perty, a water works tax Of thirty
mills would give $4,650. Placing tie
revenue from tho water works plant
at ST., 900 per year, (Which ia very blgh
when we consider that New Iberia a
much larger place than Houma Is
figuring on the same income) we would
have money enough to build and Ope
rate a water works plant. But an
additional tax Of thirty mills is alto
gether out Of the question as the tax
payers Of the town would rise IN just
indignation and oppose such a tax.
How, then, can the peopleof Houma
aided by tho town council get water
worksq The only way THE COURIER,
sees after u close studyOf the question
for several years, is to enlarge the
town, Annex New Town, Duthu's
addition and other set acknowledged
to Houma. This would more than
double the population Of Houma,
double the revenue, and in a few years
the town council would be in a posi-
ton to take suitable action in regard
to water works and other necessary
measures and push the good work
through to a completion.
Let the present town administration
make a record for itself that will ga
down into The history Of our burg, by
securing the extension Of the corporate

Legislation and Spoils.

Goverdor Adams Yesterday completed
the executive work on the bills passed by
the late legislature, says the Denver
Times. In all, eighty bills that were
passed have been signed. Eighteen that
were passed have been vetoed by the
governor, making ninety-eight bills on
which the legislature acted. The cost to
the state by the passage OF these bills
amounts to sI54,ooo. The previous legis-
lature cost the state SI5o66I92.
In his vetoes the governor exercised
considerable discretion, and while he un-
doubtedly took the broad and liberal
ground that enactments by the general
assembly should in a majority of cases
be afforded the gubernatorlal sanction,
yet the eighteen bills he vetoed, some for
constitutional reasons and some because
they were hagrantly bad laws, will not be
missed from the already overburdened
Colorado statutes.
The Times believes the governor might
have consistently vetoed large number
of other bills, but that is matter over
which he is undoubtedly the best Judge,
since the last general assembly was
elected by the people and was supposed
to represent the wishes OF the people. 1t
is certain that few of the acts created
stand out with very startling distlnctness.
The sixty days session was fitful
dream; the expeditions transaction of
business mere table. But the legisla-
tive majority did some politics on its
own account, and is no doubt satisfied
over this. 1t made a Combination" :"
and the Populists helped lay the founda-
ton for the Wolcott machine that now
exists in this city, and that is being fur
ther built up by the apportionment of
the federal officers. The professed
friends of silver in the Patterson Populist
machine here have conclusively shown
their love of silver to be merely what
The Times has often asserted-a blind to
secure the spoils of office. Their COM
pact with the Wolcottites in the legisla-
ture was the first step. Mr.. Wolcott is
now carrying out the second.

New Yorks credit for handling the
Grant memorial celebration is rapidly
dwindling or becoming of such a mega
tive character that it hardly remains a
credit. To begin with, self aggrandize-
ment probably actuated that fat headed
conglomeration of conceit far more than
a patriotic respect for the person whom
it was honoring. The management Of
the ceremonies devolved upon those
whose appreciation of tinsel surpassed
that of real merit and the veterans Of the
war were compelled to follow in order
the younger and more influential digni-
taries. Gen. Porter's inapt allusion to
Gen. Grants monetary views also, seem
to convey an impression that sense of
