Will We Have Gas?

OIL, etc, the company comprising mum
Der of our best citizens. After the COM
pany was organized, however, it was
learned that there was an obstacle i'll the
way, in the shape of law which was
enacted two years ago, which fixed the
profits that the company might keep at
6per cent, the balance to go into the
city treasury. This was practically pro-
hibative, and the company came to a
stand-stll tor short time However.
the men comprising the company refused
to be baked, and meeting of the Bus
mess Mems Club was called at the court
house, Monday night, to discuss the
matter,
According to the new law it was al
most necessary for the city to own the
gas plant. City ownership seemed to
please the most of those at the meeting,
but it would be necessary to vote bonds
to prospect for gas, and to lay the mains
\ and arrange to supply the people with
gas if is found
After considerable discussion, the COM
panv proposed to buy the drilland other
machinery, and to put down the well for
the CITY at a reasonable price the city to
pipe the gas over town and supply the
citizens.
The amount of bonds necessary was
discussed and it was thought that &c.
900 Would be sufficient, the bonds to be
issued as they were needed to prosecute
the work. fla less amount was necessary,
only that amount would be issued.
A committee was appointed to canvass
the city and petition for special election
to vote the necessary bonds. The bonds |
are not to he sold abroad, but kept at |
home, and they are to mature at the
rate of 81 900 per year.
This is all we will say about the matter
at this time, but will discuss it in the
future

PUBLIC: AFFAIRS ARE YOUR
BUSINESS.

Not only are public affairs every
mans business, but sometimes his most
important business and supreme duty
AS a cittzen, everyone has the same
duty, right, power and interest In all
public matters, and until every self
governing man feels ana recognizes all
this, we shall not have good govern
ment, nor equal government, for the
few VINO push to,the front, while others
in Ignorance, Indifference, or mistake,
hang back, will manage the government
to suit their own interests. We need not
argue that point. 1t is self-evident.
1t VIII notsdo.for the citizen to neglect
his public duties, or to confide them to
others. His civic duties are personal
until he select a representative accord
ing to law; and in this he should di-
rectly participate for his own interests.
MS we'll as those Of others, SO that the
representative should be competent re-
liable, vigilant and ndustrious-faith-
full to his trust. That citizen is himself
unfaithful to his trust who does not
take his due part In the comrnonweal.
from the initial popular meetings, the
primaries. to the final count and re-
turns.
This living, active, Intelligent inter-
est and participation in the selection Of
men and the determination of measures
is part OF that eternal vigilance which
is the price of liberty, as it Is its safe
guard. The better and ADLER the man,
the more incumbent on him is it to
general Welfare. That bad and incompe-
tent men are getting too much power
and influence, the stronger is the call
upon better and more competent citi-
zens to combat the others for them
celves and their fellow -citizens. Even il
they fail and are beaten by the evil
tricksters and cunning workers of in
idufty, patriotism is Its own reward to
good citizen, and one day it will tri-
umph to the confusion of the self
seekers.
But the truth Is that bad men give
the people bad Offices and bad laws, be-
cause the good men try to keep aloof
the direction Of common interest, in
Guiding all such work as politics, too
dirty for all but dirty men. They must
become so. II left to unclean hands; and
we can only have clean politics and
proper government by n rcsolute deter
mination in all good citizens to redeem
public affairs from unworthy control,

EX-PRESIDENT q IfA RRIsON#LosES
HIS FEE. x, "


Ex- President Harrison, as the prln-
clpal counsel of Venezuela in the boun-
dairy arbitration between that country
and the claims OF Great Britain, was
promised a. fee of $3.50, 900. The arbrtra-
ton has been decided largely In favor
Of the British, and Mr. Har-
rison is whistiing for his money.
not because of the issue of
the suit, but, because there is
an apparently successful revolution in
Venezuela. and because the coffee crop
from which the government draws its
principal revenue, is failure.
The ex-President should have had
the fee. or a n,oiety of 1t, in advance.
or insured in some responsible security
company, as South American govern
ments are very uncertain in duration,
and the new government rarely. if
ever, assumes the debts Of the old con-
Germ, unless some British claimant is
backed by his government. The United
States has in some cases demanded in
demnity for damages to its citizens by
foreign powers. but 1t does not enforce
debts, as a rule.

There is a class of pictures published
as advertisements. or as ilustra tons of
advertisements, that are neither OBJ
scene, nor profane; they are simply
shocking, disgusting, hideous and
loathsome, and should be forbidden by
law in any newspaper, magazine, cir.
cular. or other publication, or public
place. We do not know that they do
any actual physical harm; but that
may we'll happen, though the objection
to them Gotten horrid pictures Of al
legged diseases, &c.,) is that they are
revolving spcctacIes that no man of
sense or taste, or woman. can stand.
