the fremen and others employed at
the fire was also audited and ordered
paid. The rsll included Is co-workers
in addition the regular Is men of the

The first meeting Of the various

tration days. Tuesday, April 4th is
election day.
A few words on the present finan-
cial condition of the city will not be
amiss in view of the rumors which
are constantly circulated just before
election to the detriment of officers
who served the past terms,
In the first place, we will say the
city has done much work the past
year and the condition of the treas
ury is better than it ever has been.
This is no idle boast but taken from
figures according to the books of the
city treasurer. The total indebted
ness of the city on March 1st, today
is IS, 900 In bonds at 4 per cent due
and payable as follows: Two thous-
and dollars in 1903 and one thousand
dollars each in 1904, 1905 and 1906.
The bonds were issued last year on a
vote of the people. $4,000 to take up
the then matured 8 per cent bonds
and $1,000 to build a standpipe and
complete the water system.
The work done last year by the
present council has all been paid for
contrary to rumors.
The electric system has been in
creased by the addition Of an incan-
descent dynamo, boiler has been
added, other Improvements to the
system made and today the city has
one of the best plants of any small
city in the northwest. The electric
plant is self supporting at rates so
per cent less than any corporation
system in the country, besides which
the city receives its street lighting
absolutely free, rent Of the CONNER
cial lights paying all expenses.
The fire protection has been better
ed and a system perfected which
holds first place against all towns
where a regular paid department is
not maintained. The equipment for
the department has been bettered by
the addition of hose. sleds, hose house
and clothing for the firemen.
Considerable street improvements
were also made. Sheridan and Chap
man streets having been graded,
graveled, and guttered on both sides
for two blocks, and would have been
finished the entire length last fall

About 500 men are employed at the
Chandler at wages 10 cents a day
higher than they were in 1892, so we
are informed by the management.
Training is now being done at the
Pioneer distance of nearly half a
mile. The electric trolley system
soon to be put in will materially
tighten the work.
The Pioneer will soon erect q $4,000
gallon water tank on the bluff over

protection. Water will be pumped
from the lake.
The model of the Chandler mine
built here last summer and exhibited
at the Omaha exposition is now at
the Columbia College at New York
where it holds prominent position
in one of the rooms.
The Chandler will have on stock at
the opening of the shipping season
about 10000 tons. When shipments
closed last fall the stockpiles con-
tanned about $4,000 tons. The rum
ors as to the sale of Chandler ores
which have been going are rumors as
nothing is known at the offices here
Of any sales. The steam shovel is

Four hundred men are employed at

An appreciate change has been
made In the workings of the Relief
Club at the Pioneer. A payment of
30c. per month is now made by each
employe and s25 will be the indemnity

T. ]. Walsh, whose property in ellis
is near the Minnesota Iron cempany's
property, intends to sink the shaft at

The outlook is that no party will
be strong enough to elect a Presi-
dent to succeed Mr.. Dole, and that
he consequently will be his own
hold-over. successor. In such a re-
suit political pressure may be
brought to bear upon him to change
his Cabinet to satisfy the views OF
the Office seekers who are very anx-
ious to hold commissions at the
time of the great political change
in the form OF Government.

Now, after "spat," the great ex-
President of the late Republic of
Hawaii has 30 far modified the de-
signation 'Carriage of Liliuokalani,"
in the funeral program, as to allow
it to read Carriage of e1-Queen
Liliuokalani," refusing in the little
ness of his soul to have it read as it
should "Her Majesty ex-Queen Lii
liuokalani." OF course the x-Presi-
dent has nothing to expect from
Liliuokalani; but what has he in ex-
pectancy from Kapiolani that in the
line following the carriage of ex-
Queen Liliuokalani," he graciously
permits "Carriage of Her Majesty
Queen Dowager Kapiolani"

1t certainly axes no difference to
the Queen as to how she is designat

President Dole.

TOPICS OF THE DAY,

1t is pleasant to note that the
men in charge of the funeral of the
late Princess we're compelled to re-
tract their insult to ex-Queen Liliu-
okalani. Their meanners of intention
covers them with unutterable sh anne.

Rhinoceros to blush through a
pachydermatous hide.

An added sting is the detail of the
adventurer from San Diego as pail
bearer to represent the Quintet in
the Palace. There is no ex-Minister
of Foreign Affairs, that department
having been specifically abolished.

of that Americanization in regard to

Fortunately for the credit of the
