The statement made by the natural
gas committee. which was published ID
the papers Saturday evening, contains
A reflection on our common council
that we believe is wholly unwarranted.
The committee charged that the recent
election of the new city attorney Was
brought about by the influence of the
gas companies. There is not the
slightest reason to suppose that Mr..
Jessup was the choice of the gas COM
panies. or that the gas companies took
any hand in the election of city attor-
ney. AT the first public meeting that
was held to priest against the advance
in the price of natural gas Mr..
Jessup made one of the strongest
speeches of the evening against the
advance. In the Republican caucu;
that nominated Mr.. Jessup a member

A FIRE..
The Departments Called Out Saturday
Night for Practice and for
Work.

There were two alarms of fire rapid
ly succeeding each other Saturday
evening. One by the committee on

from the box at ninth and north A
streets. 1t was merely for practice, to
make trial run. All was done in
good shape and quick time. Immed-
lately afterward there was another
alarm, this time from box 81
twelfth and south + The fire proved
to be in n house formerly owned by
the late Henry Haner, and occupied
by Chsrles Johanning. The family
was away, up town. and the house
caught fire from the kitchen stove.
The departments made good run for
the place. and succeeded in saving a
part of the house, which was located
at 500 south eleventh. The roof was
destroyed. together with a portion of
the contents of the building. A con,
sentative estimate of the loss is 500,
and there was some insurance.

The Richmond public schools opened
today under highly favorable auspices
They never had an ADLER corps OF
teachers. The weather is ideal and
the public health is excellent. Most OF
the teachers have had pleasant and
profitable outings, and enter upon
their work with renewed zeal and en-
thusiasm. Several departments have
been strengthened by changes in the
corps. The cheerful faces of the chill
dren as they started on their march
toward the respective school houses
this morning evinced their eagerness
for another years intellectual feast.

HARD WORK
Done by the People Of the West Side
In the CIRCULATION Of PstI-
lions, etc.

Now that the controversy between
| the people of the west side and the
movement to open the ward to saloons
is at an end, it is well to state that few
people have any idea of the hard work
done by people of that portion Of the
city IN organizing and perfeeting the
counter movement fer the defeat OF
the proposed repeal measure. The
men who took the most active part in
the work arose at O'Clock nearly
every morning to catch the working
men on their way to work in other
parts of town, or at their homes be-
fore starting. They remained up I'M
til midnight talking over the plans of
campaign and arranging with persons
to take circumstances and also allot
ting territory to each one who volun-
teered to take petition in hand
One man got up one morning, got five
signatui as on his paper and was al
work in his place of business on this
side of the river by 6 O'Clock. Many
of the hardest workers, through
out the hottest weather of the
seasonsu ,bsisted on four hours of sleep
and such of their meals as they could
cdtcus 1uC WOucU- lOO, WcIo udIO a,
work, and did their share of walking,
talking, planning and hard work, and
deserve large proportion of the credit
for the work. Now that they are vie
torious they feel well rewarded for the
very great zeal and pluck displayed in
long, hard, up bill fight that started
out with every apparent prospect of
defeat.
Yet there was nothing done in the
fight that was not open and above
board, and the petitions were subject
to any sort of inspection desired. Now
that the victory is over, the councilmen
who voted with the people of that ward
are receiving letters of warmest thanks
and appreciation for such action. The
letters come from those taking the
most active part in the fight.
