the matter is that the power Of city to
build plant is conclusive. The COM
pany has no monopoly. Coming down
to the expediency the need of action
along this line is imperative.
In 1895 President Street of the water
company made the first proposition for
peace that was made since the contro-
Versy started. He offered to extend the
mains and charge but half rate for
hydrants adm reduce the rates on small
err buildings of 20 per cent to pay taxes
in Topeka and compromise the South
Topeka claim. The council demanded
a general reduction of 20 per cent. This
was referred and the proposition fell
through I would like to see this ques-
ton settled.
NJ. Heery-I happened to be in the
council when this franchise was grant
ed. There were some things about the
granting of the franchise did not like.
1t was passed too quickly. Some of US
wanted time to consider it, but it was
crowded through in one night. The
city then had II, 600 people. The COM
pany did not expect it would ever be
necessary to have more than 300 hy~
drants. The plant cost about 5000, 00S
and it was sold for $500, 900 and the diff
was franchise, and it belonged to the
city. After that the plant was bonded
for over $1,000 900 and the difference be-
tween that and 5000, 900 was franchise
and was lost to the city and the city
might have saved it.
Major T. J. Anderson-I drew the
original Waterworks ordinance every
word of it, but don't know what hap
pened to it after it left me and went to
the attorneys. I also sold the first
$780, of bonds in Colorado. We orga-
nized a company with 800, 900 capital
and believe the stock was assessed 81
per cent. There never was an ordf-
nance so fairly drawn nor so generally
approved by the citizens, for we needed
water. We were not able to build our
own plant then or we might have done
so. I believe in the municipal owner
ship of waterworks and all public utili-
ties for that matter, but I do not see
what we will gain by voting bonds now
if there will be litigation which will at
least prevent US from doing anything
until 1901. Why not begin to accumu-
late fund now to purchase the water
works and we could pay part Of the
purchase price in 1901
M: G. Holman-WouId not the levy
for interest and sinking fund exceed the
limit?
Mr.. Bird-No. There is a special act
which permits cities to levy 20 per cent
/. to purchase or build water works
The committee was continued and

continue the discussion.

WHITES AT FAULT.
Commissioner Jones Says They are
to Blame for Indian Outbreak.

to Blame for Indian Outbreak.
Washington, Oct. Commissioners
of Indian Affairs William A. Jones, who
has been for week in Minnesota max
with the Chippewa Indians for the re-
sumption of peaceful relations with the
government has returned to Washing
ton and made a verbal report to Secre-
tary Bliss upon his work. Commissioner
Jones says the trouble is attributable
to the methods of the whites in the
vicinity who are taking gross advan-
tage of the Indians. In discussing the
outbreak he said today: The origin
OF the whole trouble was dissatisfaction
with the handling of the Indians tim
Der, but the immediate cause was irri-
tation at the frequent arrests of IN
dams on trivial causes, often for no
cause at all, taking them down to Du-
luth and Minneapolis for trial, 100 miles
away from their agency and then turn
ing them adrift without means of re-
turning home. I have information there
is a definite arrangement between the
United States marshal and some board
ing houses where the courts are located
from which the deputies are to bring
down delegations of Indians as wit
nesses in whisky and other cases This
secures fees for the deputies and money
for the boarding places. At Brainerd.
Mimi, while L was going north, met
a party of twenty Indians on their way
to court at Duluth, many of whom
were of absolutely no value to the case
at issue, but whose presence as wit
nesses would inure to the financial ben
eft of others. The Indians were prompted
to their outbreak by the wrongs com
mitted on them and chafed under unfair
treatment.
when I reached there they were sur
" ugly defiant. but soon adopted q
conciliatory attitude and finally agreed
to negotiate for the surrender OF the
men wanted. All but two were suTreu-
dered. They said they would not allow
two men to bring their whole tribe into
-e-4s4 4 ~enrarHT ia
themselves for the men remaining, Ola
Bug and his son to have them turned
over to the marshal They are still out
The Indians claimed they had whipped
the soldiers and that not one OF their
number had received a scratch. They
showed several -JOrgensens taken
from probably where the soldiers had
the fight, but they did not understand
their use.
1.-The Indians will now go back to their
homes and live peaceably if the whites
will treat them fairly, which IS very
likely as the whites were thoroughly
Impressed with the stand taken by the
Indians In this respect the outbreak
has taught them a lesson.
Commissioner Jones will recommend
2. reform in the existing timber methods
either adopting the system now prac-
ticed at Manomine, Wis, of keeping the
timber profits within the tribe 1tselL o.
having the timber cut by indtViduai
indians. or by advertising certain
norton of the reservation each year TO
be sold to the highest bidder The lat
fer system would include both grown
and dead timber and the timber would
have to be cut clean.

THE HECKER BOARD
Makes It's Report on Camp Sites in
Cuba.

Washington, Oct. 27.-The final selection
of camp sites for the American troops who
will Garrison Cuba awaits the presi-
dents return from Philadelphia. Al
though discussed at some length at the
cabinet meeting the various reports of the
Heeker board. were not fully disposed Of
and it is probable that the cabinet will
feel that it should take some expert ad-
vice before making final selections. The
troops will not be landed at any one place,
but each detachment will be landed at the
nearest and most accessible port to the
place which is to form its camping ground.
Among the places that have been recon-
mended by the Hecl<er board are: GUIANA
bacoa, which can be reached best from
Regla, opposite Havana, on the bay; Mar
iano. about six miles southwest of Ha-
vana. with a seaport at Playa de Mariana,
and Mariel. on bay of the same name,
about 25 miles distant from Havana, and
beyond Mariana. All these sites fulfill the
needs of good camping grounds. but in
each case the Hecker board has found
that there must be cOnsidera bic expendi-
ture by the government if permanent
landing places are to be provided, so that
the troops will not run the risk of infee-
ton in passing through Havana.
