The beginning Of the end Of the mat
the city schools was reached and after
an hours session yesterday of the
finance committees of the school board.
the assembly and board Of aldermen
and the city comptroller the school

the schools committee, and E. o.. Zim-
norman, Of the, school board; George
Gerlach, inspector of new buildings and
improvements and Secretary AoHealy.
Comptroller McCardy was also present
for part of the meeting. There was
considerable inessing done, it appear
ing that each side was anxious to have
the other fellow talk first. The mem
bers of the school board in the first
place wanted the $41 coo set aside for
new buildings transferred to the fund
for other purposes before they were
called upon to say how much money

ton they could make in the present
rate of expense. The councilmen on
the other side and with the comptroller
behind them armed with figures, wished
to be given some definite idea of the
proposed scaling in expenses before
anything else was done in the matter.
Assemblyman Kirke presided. Aid.
Sanborn opened the ball by asking if
the school board had determined how
much money it had available for the
coming year. Owing to the confusion
OF fiscal and school years, Mr.. McNair
thought it would be well if the city
comptroller would submit his figures.
This was done and the following
shows Mr. Cardy's estimated income of
the board for the years 1897 and 1898,

first floor are the reception hall, parlor
dining-room, pantry and kitchen
-Four bed rooms, with closets, and q
bath room occupy the second floor
and from thence a flight OF stairs leads
to the large attic on the third floor.
The woodwork of the lower floor is to
be Georgia pine, and the whole house
will be finished in a very thorough
fashion. Mr.. Currier will thus have
not only roomy house but an
eminently com Portable home.
In addition to these several buildings,
we have already mentioned Mr.. VIII
Hutchin's new house on the west
side, Attorney Whites addition TO
his dwelling on Second street, the
buildings at the brick-kiln and few
other under takings of lesser note.
Always bearing in mind that the new
Methodist church is to be the biggest
enterprise of all, it can be readily
seen that the summer building not
only compares very well with that Of
earlier years, but adds to the city
much of beauty and much of perman-
ent value.

Failure Admitted .

L. V. Debbs, the great agitator OF
the working men and fomenteg OF
strikes, riot and bloodshed, conceived
gigantic scheme for the colonial
ton of voters in various Republican
States in sufficient numbers to carry
them for the opposition in 1900.
After making an effort to carry out
his project he admits it to be i'm
practicable, and consequently a
failure. This is not the first great
scheme originated by Debbs which
proved to be a failure. lie planned
the A. r. L. with a view 70 either
running every railroad in this
country himself, from a central
office" or else paralyzing every
artery OF commerce in the United
State 1t was bold game, and OF
startling proportions, but the Federal
courts, backed by the strong arm Of
military power proved too great an
obstacle in the way of the consum-
nation of Debbs' dictatorial and
autocratic plan. Debbs is what
Dick Taylor would term "a visionary
cuss," and his plans do not pan out
successfully, but he manages tC
work considerable mischief to others
and sometimes strikes a snag him
self. He seems to possess a fertile
brain, and is quite prolific with pro
iects which will bring him botl
notoriety and cash.

Billy Bryan's Boom.

If there is any one scheme which
more than another engages the time
and attention of William J. Bryan
it is his pet project of becoming
President of the United States. He
is nurturing this ambition with an
unfagging zeal which seems destined
to keep him in the lead so far as
the silver Democracy is concerned,
at least until the meeting Of the
national convention of that party.
Just after the Ohio Democrats had
declared their preference for him as
a Presidential candidate in 1890 he
was asked if he intended to take a
trip around the world, and replied
that while he greatly desired to take
such a trip he had no idea of doing
so for some time yet, if ever. The
fact is, Mr.. Bryan feels that he can
keep his political fences in better
repair by remaining in this country
than he could while junketing
around and hobnobbing with
foreign potentates. The fiattering
of occupants Of royal
palaces will not be considered when
convention delegates are being
selected, and William is shrewd
enough to know this. One rear end
Pullman palace car platform whirl
through the rural districts of
Hoosierdom would give him more
in a convention than would
a weeks hunting and fishing with
the Prince of Wales or the Emperor
Of China. 1t is safe to assume that
Mr.. BryanIs boom will require SO
much of that genlleman's personal
as to render it impossible
for him to start upon trip around
the world until three years from the
present time shall have elapsed.
He will then have plenty of time in
which to make an extended tour.
But in the meantime he will amuse
himself by playing with political
wires.

The stock spectators of the great
cities will now have an opportunity
to contribute directly to the support
of the Government to the tune OF
about II to 10 million dollars per
annm. The Republicans placed in
the tariff bill an amendment propos-
ing to place a tax of 2 cents a share
on all purchases of stock of par
value of 500 or less, and of a stamp
tax when issued, except on building
associations and other organizations
of that character.

Dropping The Anarchists.

The silver Democracy is entitled
to credit for its manifest purpose to
relgate to the rear that destructive
and anarchistic element which so
boldly asserted itself within that
party in 1896. The silver Demo-
Gratis of two great states-Ohio and
Illinois-have practically expressed
themselves upon this proposition.
In Ohio they declined to reatfirm
the principles enunciated by the
Chicago platform of 1895, which
was decidedly anarchistic in tone,
and in Illinois they gave evidence
of their reputation of such senti-
ment by unceremoniously kicking
out of their councils the boss
anarchist of that State. These are
hopeful signs, and encourage the
belief that the anarchists will either
organize a party exclusively their
own, or else go over to the Populists
and oppose fusion with Democrats.
The average farmer who recognizes
the great possibility of beet-sugar
production in this country, which
sends a hundred millions a year
abroad for sugar, will not relish the
action of the Democratic party in
the Senate with reference to the pro-
posed bounty of a quarter of cent
a pound on beet sugar The Re-
publican Senators offered an amend
ment to the tariff bill proposing to
pay a Quarter of a cent a pound
bounty on American beet sugar pro-
duced during the five years follow
ing the enactment of the law, and
would have promptly passed it but
for the threat of Chairman Jones OF
the Democratic National Committee
and his colleagues in the Senate that
the proposition would be bitterly
fought and action upon the tariff bill
indefinitely delayed on account Of
this proposition.
