CITY Council.

A special meeting of the city council
was held on Tuesday evening. TWAS

Corn and provisions have the last few
days developed in such strength as to
have completely eclipsed wheat in the
speculative market here. In respect
corn the most sensational reports
are being received by Schwartz, Dupee
& Go. of Chicago who have been MAX
ing thorough investigation of the
subject. Chief among these are state
ments from every section of the corn
belt that the planting time has thus far
been most unfavorable, and in view of
the continued cold and wet weather the
outlook is anything but promising.
One man in Kansas writes: "a year
ago this time we were cultivating corn;
now it is not yet planted" From
other sections come similar statements,
and there can be no doubt that the con-
census of 0 pinion in the country is that
corn will prove poor crop. Another
vital point is that of reserves in farm
ers hands. Investigation relating
thereto is now in progress and thus far
goes to show that the estimates have
been far too high. The visible supply
of corn decreased 100000 blu. last
week, Or over twice as much as during
the corresponding period in 1897.

Sidewalks.

About ten years ago our either s
were all smitten with a desire
for good sidewalks, and a large
amount of wooden walks was laid, and
the city took long forward step. All
of the walk then laid has become SIM
ultaneously dilapidated, and the re-
suit is that there is vast amount of
unsightly walk, and not confined to
any locality, although most conspic-
uous on the business streets. The city
is too far advanced now to make it de-
sirable to relay with plank. There is
too much wear an tear on Main ard
Third SITS, within the business limits
to make wooden walks economical.
Some of our citizens are investigating
the various styles for concrete and
artificial stones for walks, and it is to
hoped that new policy will be in
augurated. Themoreexpensivemater-
ial will be the cheapest in the end.

will: and although he was unconscious
for two days before death, and could
not leave to his loved ones a dying

his soul, and our loss is his gain.

Lodge would surely meet the ap-
proval of the senate and the people.
As chairman of the committee on
Foreign relations Cushman K. Davis
drew up the report on the Maine
disaster-a state paper second to
none that has cmanated' from the
senate since the foundation of the
government. Joseph B. Foraker was
the author of the Cuban resolutions
adopted by congress, and is man
who has never finched before the
name of jingo and has never blushed
TO be known as an aggressive Amer
lean. Henry Cabot Lodge is pa
triot of the same school, a deep
student o: history, and clear IN
terpreter of the spirit which guided
the fathers in enlarging and strength
ening the republic.
If the president appoints these
three senators, his action will receive
the approval of the American peo-
pie, with the bare exception of those
persons who never have resented the
destruction of the Maine, who have
not approved of the conduct of the
war, and who are not willing to see
this country reap benefits from a pol
icy adopted without their endorse
ment. In other words, he will please
everybody who is worth pleasing.

THREE IDEAL COMMISSIONERS

A member of President McKinley's
cabinet says that Senators Davis,
Foraker, and Lodge are likely to be
the American commissioners in the
negotiations for a final treaty of
peace with Spain. Three names more
satisfactory to the American people
could hardly be mentioned. Every
one of the three senators is a thor
oughbred American; every one OF
them Is devoted to the welfare of this
republic; every one would enter the
peace conference with the firm pur-
pose of obtaining for this country
all advantages consistent with honor.
If Senators Davis, Foraker and
Lodge are to be the American COM
missioners the people need have no
fear that any fruits of our glorious
victory over Spain will be sacrificed
to such day dreams as have been
presented to us recently under the
specious titles of generosity" and
''humanity." A treaty drawn with
the consent of Davis, Foraker and
