Estimates Guessed At.

The Democrat has devoted a quarter
column trying to show that some of the
Publishers have lied about their circu-
latlons as shown by the Headlight 4"
IL presumes that the publisher of the
Independent gave the Headlight figures
as TO its circulation because of the fact
that the Headlight people allowed the
Democrat to write up its own account
of itself. The Democrat has erred In
its presumption. The publisher of the
Independent was not asked by the
Headlight people regarding its circula-
ton, and the write up given this paper
was news to him. Had he been given
the privilege the Democrat was, he
would probably have given himself
writeup more satisfactory to himself at
any rate. In dong so, he would not
have had nerve sufficient TO state that
his publication has always stood ahead
of its contemporaries as literary pro-
duction" as the Democrat egotistically
says of itself.
Regarding the circulation of the Inde-
pendent, the Headlight credits the
Weekly Independent with too large
circulation and the Daily Independent
with too little.

Council Proceedings.

No decisive action was taken in the
Sophia street paving matter Monday
evening. The petition was not even re-
ferred to, though the committee ap
pointed to investigate the Sophia street
water mains made their report. which
the council accepted. substantially
their report was as follows: The main
is laid where it, would be under pave
ment. In our judgment it would last
four or five years yet but the following
recommendation is made. Providing the
street is paved there should be six inch
iron main put in from Michigan street
to Liberty street, and fOur-inch main
from Liberty street to east end of pres
eDt main, these placed as close to the
curb as is possible and practical. Sew
eral good reasons for the above were
added to the report.
Mayor Jones appointed VIM. Klinger
as night watch. The council ventured
no dissenting voice and hence Mr..
Klinger will probably hold that import
ant position hereafter.
A resolution was presented asking
that the VanPelt addition be disan-
nexed, which was allowed by the unan-
imOus vote of the council.
Bonds entered by ROllo Oglesbee as
city attorney and VIM. Hamlet as city
street commissioner were approved and
filed.
Some time was consumed by the at
tendance to minor petitions and other
matters too disinteresting for publica-
ton.
