THE BOND QUESTION.

Having been asked our opinion OF
the action Of the City Council on the
proposed refunding of the city debt
aud the issuance of $28. 600 additional
bonds for the purpose of improving
the water supply and the constrnc-
ton of additional sewer, we reply that
to fail to refund the existing debt at
this time would be little less than
,rimina! negligence. The bonds now
outstanding bear rate OF per cent.
which, on $50, 100 amounts to $3,8o5
annually. Our opinion is that at
present they can be foated at 81 per
cent. which would effect saving OF
81. I4I so each year, or at 4 per cent
$76r would be saved. If made to run
g years, 81 pei cent bonds will sell
at par. The right might be reserved
to begin redemption after 10 or IS
years. The longer time they have 10
IuH, Tic lOWIi liz thhes
As to the second proposition, we
are not so certain. IT the idea is to
patch up the present imperfect sys.
tenn we are opposed, first, last and
forever. If a sufficiently elevated pc.
sition can be secured, let reservoir
be constructed. IF not. let stand
pipe be erected. With either reser-
voir or stand pipe the pumps now IN
use are amply sufficient, with COM
parativeiy slight repairs. The exist.
ing pipes would also be ample as
there could then be no extra pressure
applied, consequently the pipe would
not burst as now.
The saving on fire insurance would
many times pay the interest each
year. We do not know if S28, 900
the amount proposed by the Council
would be necessary, or il it would be
sufficient. The interest on that sum
at 81 per cent would be $3.50. If the
existing Indebtedness and that pro.
posed can be foated at that rate, there
will be an annual saving of $I6I in
interest without the s per cent night
mare hanging over the city. At a
per cent, the increase in interest
would be but $3.50, which is a very
small sum to pay for safety from fire,
lor health and for the additional COM
fort afforded.
OF course there are those who will
oppose, some from selfish and mer-
cenary motives, others because they
are built that way and cannot avoid
it and others, like the editor of the
Statesman. who imagine they may
gain mean political advantage.
One thing is certain, the Council is
right in taking the action it has TAX
n. The Legislature should pass the
proposed bill and permit the questic n
to be passed upon by the people. II
it is a good thing to do, the people
will approve. if not, they will kill it.

Real Cause of the War.

For the information of those unfa miliar
with the situation in the Transvaal and
the causes which have led to the war
now in progress there it may be stated
that the war is the effect of the last of a
series of acts of aggre ssion prompted by
British greed. Were the Transvaal a
country devoid of wealth the Beers
would have remained in undisturb d
possession OF it. Unfortunately for the
Beers it is not. When the Kimberly
diamond" mines were discovered Cecil
Rhodes put in claim to that part of the
territory and rather than 60 to war about
it the Beers let him have it. 1t gave
them peace, at least for the time being,
and that was all they cared for They
were not after diamonds. they wanted to
follow their peaceful vocations
They therefore left the Orange Free
State and settled in the Tran svaal But
when in 1867 diamonds were discovered
there. and later gold, England seized
the Transvaal. OF this infamy. however,
the English people disapproved. and in
1881 Gladstone made treaty of peace
with the Beers recognizing the independ.
ence of the Transvaal. What proved
most unfortunate for the new republic
was the discovery Of fresh fields OF gold
and diamonds within its border in 1886
which excited the British greed anew
and caused large influx of English into
