BUTTREY'S.
TERMS CASH.
To Refund the Union Depot Bo5ds,
TERMS CASH.

io Ntlunu tne Union Depot b06dS.
In 1889 the city of Wellington issued
$4,000 in twenty.year six per cent
bonds to the Santa Fe and Southern
Kansas railways for the construction
of the union depot. Under state
law the city has the righJ to refund
or Day off these bonds after the expi-
ration OF ten years from the cate Of
their issuance. The ten years expired
last month. Councilman PITTS stated
to the council Monday night that the
finance committee had had a meeting
at the Arlington hotel one night last
week with H. B. Kelly, of Topeka,
who offered to engineer the refuRding
scheme for the city and stated that
the bonds could be refunded at At per
cent. Mr., Kelly is broker, and
offered to refund them at no expense
to The city except the cost Of engrav-
ing and rate of exchange, which in all
would not amount to more than $780,
He went back to Topeka and prom.
ised to submit his proposition 10 writ
iyg later. His written proposition
was received by Mayor Kramer few
days ago and was read to the council
Monday night. The proposition is to
refund the bonds IN whole or in uart,
People's voice., 1899-04-20

the exchange to take place in the fiscal
agency Of the state Of Kansas in the
city of New York, the whole transac-
tiOn to be closed up in six months
time at the longest, and the city not
to be at a dollars expense until the
deal is complete.
The council seemed to be favorably
impressed with the scheme, but defer.
red action for the present. Should
the city take advantage of the refund
ing law, it will effect a saving Of about
5000 year in interest. There is at
present g 900 in the sinking fund for
the purpose Of paying off these bonds,
and the city Will flnd il necessary to
refund only S38 900 worth. Ten years
from the date Of refunding, the city
will have the right to pay off the
bonds il it desires to do so.

THE CEMETERY QUESTION,

THE cemetery question in this city will never be
settled until the Board of Supervisors passes an
ordinance forbidding further burals within the
corporation limits. There practically no argu-
ments against the enactment of such law. The only
persons who have appeared far in opposition are
those whose financial or other interests impel them
to take issue with the promoters OF the closing
ment in the Western Addition
This matter will come before the Health and Po
lice Committee of the Supervisors this morning when
the old straw will be once more threshed over The
ordinance pending before that committee changes
the boundary line within which further burias
permitted after 1902 in such way as to virtually
close the present cemeteries This ordinance has been
Endorsed by the Western Addition and Richmond
improvement clubs and is advocated by the Mission
Federation OF Improvement Clubs.
The necessity for the passage of such ordinance
is that no matter what progress cremation makes 1t
is certain that buryng will be the practice for many
years to come Therefore cemeteries should be 10
Gated a long distance away from the habitatons OF
the living.
While there is dispute to whether burying
grounds propagate disease it cannot be claimed that
they are health resorts Decaying bodies pos
siby improve the soil increase the purity OF the
air The Supervisors possess the power to forbid
burials for cemeteries are subject to police control
The Western Addition cemeteries injury to
that portion of the city, and their closing is demanded
by every consideration of the present and future well
fare of the city The old City Cemetery and Italian
Cemetery were closed by the last Board of Super
visors and the same action should be taken with
spect to the remaining cemeteries. The Committee
on Health and Police should give this subject earnest
consideration and decide it in such will
satisfy the people generally, who we think are in
favor of closing

THE SAMOAN CRISIS.
public Judgment.

y EYOND doubt the Samoan Islands are pro-
~ ductive and the islanders are busy producers
- but OF late years the soil and the people to-
eether under the stimulating influence OF the aggre-
gated governmental energies and science OF the
United States Great Britain and Germany, have
raised more Cain than sugar and the crisis crop has
been bigger and more frequent than the cocoanut
crop.
There is not the slightest danger OF war growing
out Of the mbroglo for it is much like the com
plcation OF comic opera to be taken seriously even
by dplomatists but has already reached develop
nlent which has called for the roaring OF big guns and
caused considerable number of deaths. Silly the
quarrel may be- it is clearly time to put stop to it
The affair has gone beyond the domain of talk, and
some action must be taken restore order and pro-
tect life and property.
AS the situation stands the German representative
in the islands is in the wrong, and 1t IS not likely
his Government will sustain him. Of the three
powers equally vested with authority in the islands
and bound by agreement to act in harmony, two have
supported the government OF young Mahetoa, and
moreover the Supreme Court established by the
powers has confirmed the title OF that government
Such being the case, it is the duty OF the German
representative at Apia to obey the court and leave
to the Berlin Government the duty OF making any
protests which German interests require to be made
By acting as they have done the Germans have
stirred UP strife which has forced the American
and the British warships to fire upon the natives
the German warship in the port remaining an mac
tive spectator and giving no help whatever to en-
force the law 1t is evident such situation is ntol-
cradle 1t cannot be long now before the tripartite
Government is abolished. Either the islands will be
divided or it will be determined which power is going

PESTHoUsE IMPROVEMENTS.

I IITH commendabe promptness the Super
AN{ visors have projected plans for the improve
ment of the Pesthouse and rendering the
dition of the inmates more comfortable The plans
thus far outlined not imposing will they cost
much when carried out, but they promise the imme-
date attainment of the desired object of relief
Superintendent Thompson, who has had charge of
the construction of the Hall of Justice, and who has
been in consultation with the committee of the Board
of Supervisors having the subject in charge is
ported to have advised the total destruction of the
present dapidated structure by fire and the consruc
ton OF a smaller building at a cost not to exceed
$1,000. 1t is believed that such building will be
ample for the needs OF the institution and that it will
afford the afflicted shelter and warmth.
If for so small a sum as that the evil plight of the
inmates of the Pesthouse be freed from the dis
comforts OF their present quarters, there be
excuse whatever for delay in performing the work
1t Should be undertaken at once.
While the plan suggested has been favorably con-
sidered it has not yet been adopted by the committee
IT IS expected however, that definite plan of i'm
provement will be reported to the Supervisors at the
meeting next Monday and in the meantime the com
'mttee is to make careful examination of the whole
subject. The prospects, therefore are that within a
comparatively short time the unfortunatcs of the CITY

UNDERGROUND WIRES
IN THIS CITY SOON
MERCHANTS WORKING FOR A
CONDUIT SYSTEM.

For several weeks past the officers of
the Merchants Association have been
considering the proposition of the re-
moval of all overhead electric light,
telephone, telegraph and other wires
from the poles and substituting some sort
of underground system. The Organiza-
ton took up this subject year ago and
a meeting was held in the office of the
Mayor. After discussing the disadvantages
of the present system and the advan-
tages of having all wires laid in conduits,
those who attended the meeting agreed
that the change should be made as soon
as possible, in order that San Francisco
might keep pace with the up-to-date
cities of the United States. At that time
no further move toward the change was
made on account of the lack of informa-
ton, but the association agreed to fur
niSh the data as speedily as possible.
President Dohrmann made q visit to
Europe and upon his return to America
he was Joined in New York by j. M.
who was sent East to gather tnforma-
ton relating to modern municipal i'm
provements. Together they inspected all
of the underground systems for wires
etc. in the larger cities, and upon their
return the association requested of Mr..
King a report. The reason for this was
the determination to again agitate the
laying of wires of all kinds underground
and thus remove one of the greatest
menaces to life and property in San
Francisco. The report has been pre-
scented and shows the systems in use in
New York, Philadelphia and Boston. The
latter city, with it's conduit system, has
been more successful than the others.
The city was laid out in districts and
as fast as one locality was complete an
other was taken up, until in February,
1897, the conduits amounted to ninety-two
miles, carrying about 81 900 miles CT wire
During the past two years the work of
clearing the city of overhead wires has
been actively pushed. Of the conduits
used Mr.. King says:
In the subways constructed, five different
systems of conduits employed viz: Sheet
iron pipe coated with asphalt or tar; vitri-
fed clay; creosoted wood, and the Edison solid
tube system. Sheet iron pipe lined with
cement constituted the bulk of the conduits
laid. Creosoted wood was little used since
1894, and the greater portion of the Edison
solid tube system was laid previous to that
time.
The information presented by Mr.. King
has received much attention by the off,
GERS of the association. One thing has
been decided and that is to follow the
example of Boston and district the BUSH
ness portion of the city and a part south
of Market street first and not attempt
to make wholesale changes A number
of conduits have already been laid by
light companies, and the advent of the
new electric light company, of which
Claus Spreckels is the president. is re-
garded as an important factor in the
movement, as the wires of this company
will be placed underground Within a
few weeks it is likely that q special
meeting will be called by the directors
to take active steps toward introducing
the underground wire system here
