have brought the question of good
road to Sunnyside before the governing
board of the Commercial club and some
members claim it is the most important
of any questions before them. The
board appointed Englehart, DR.. Gum
and myself to look into the matter and
report. Next to an electric line a good
road is the most desirable thing to keep
in touch with that section. Many resi-.
dents of Sunnyside are compelled to go
from eight to fifteen miles to get to the
railway and in coming to town they
must lose two days. time. There should
be thirty miles of dirt grade or macad-
amized road built by private labor and
subscription, I believe, and then the
county could keep the road in repair.
The road would be mainly for light
travel, though from here down to Sunny
side there would doubtless be heavy
hauling required as the Sunnyside people
look on this place as the business center

mittee, Which Will Probably
Report FavOrabIy.

The special Session of the City Council
last night lasted but a few minutes. 1t
was called for the purpose of introducing
a recommendation from the city controller
and an ordinance calling for a temporary
loan of So, 600 to tide the city through a
financial crisis. The ordinance provided for
a loan of $4,000 secured by notes maturing
not later than Dec. 1, 1900, and drawing
not more than 6 per cent. interest.
The ordinance was referred TO the finance
committee. The committee will meet dur
ing the week and il is more than probable
that a favorable report will be made. Re-
publican councilmen stated last night that
the ordinance will no doubt be passed. A
few Of them thought the Republicans had
done enough for the Democratic admins
~tration, but as the city is absolutely in need
of money they will favor a temporary loan
so that the citizens will not be forced to
suffer from the extravaganza methods of
the administration.
Mayor Taggart sent a report TO the Coun-
Gil stating that he had signed the resolu-
ton providing for a special committee of
councilmen to investigate the fire depart
ment, 10 ascertain the improvements
deemed necessary; also the ordinance
passed at the last regular meeting OF the
Council calling for a temporary loan OF
$780, 600 and the ordinance providing for
lights to be placed in the Easements and
Railways of apartment houses.

TAGGART's CRY OF sWOLF."
An Ex-Councilmnn Says People Need
Not Worry.

1.-The people of Indianapolis need not
worry lest the electric lights on the street
corners be turned out said an ex-member
of the City Council of some years past.
THAT cry of the Taagart administration
is on a par with the howl set up a short
time ago about the fire department going to
pieces. Only a few weeks ago Mr.. Taggart
and his counselors started in TO undertake
to brighten the people and coerce the City
Council into making temporary loans to
replenish the depleted treasury so that the
administration might have a fund to spend
in the employment of men to scrape the
streets and do other work for the city
previous to the election, just as they have
done in years past. To accomplish their
purpose, they started the cry that the fire
department was disabled and there was a
hurry call sent in which resulted in an
arbitrary increase of insurance rates 20
per cent. This scheme failed. because as
soon as the representative insurance agents
of this city-who had more interest in. their
business than in the political success of
the city administration-got together, the
order was rescinded.
Now there is a new Richmond in the
field and we are told with equal solemnity
and vigor that the electric lights are to
be shut off and that the city is to be left
I'm darkness unless the City Council DWiH
vote the administration whatever money it
desires. Any one who stops to think about
the street lighting situation will at once
see that this bluff is on a par with the
one about the alarming condition of the
fire department. The city of Indianapolis
has a contract with the Electric Light
Company to light the streets, and that con-
tract will not expire for some years to
come. 1t is not easy to see how the mayor
could annul that contract and prevent the
lighting of the street lamps.
Some years ago, when the streets of
this city were illuminated by gas, the Gas
Company had a similar contract with the
city and the Council undertook to require
them TO shut off a portion of the street
lights for the purpose of reducing expenses
in that department of the city government.
"A suit was at once brought by the company
and when 1T came before the Supreme
Court OF Indiana that body decided that
the contract was valid; that the city was
bound to pay the Gas Company for lighting
the streets and for lighting all the lamps;
and that the city had no power to reduce
the number of lights or change the contract
any more than 1T had the right to refuse
to carry out the terms of any other con-
tract 1t might enter into.
$50 L guess Mr.. Taggart will have to
think up some other cry of Wolf, wolf"
said the -ex-councilman with a laugh. This
one Will not draw very WELL"

DISTINGUISHED COLORED MEN.
Party loaded by Representative
White Arrives.

A trio of distinguished colored men from
the East registered at the Bates House
last night. The party was headed by Rep
resentatiye George H. White, of North
Carolina, and included John p. Green,
United States postage stamp agent, whose
office is in the Postofice Department at
Washington, and John w. Thompson. of
Rochester, N. Y, the latter being treas
urer of the Council.
Representative White is to deliver the
principal response to Governor Mounts adj
dress of welcome at the opening of the
council this morning. Tomorrow Mr..
White will read the report of the work
done by the legal bureau of the council
An interesting bit of Information was fur
nished by Mr.. Green, who declared that
Representative White will be elected presi-
dent of the Afro-American Council. Mr..
Green said that Bishop Walters is not a
candidate for reelection and that Mr..
White is more prominently mentioned in
this connection than anybody else.
Representative White was asked if he
had seen the published statement hat an
effort will be made to have the council
indorse the candidacy of Mr.. Bryan. az
have heard of such a movement" he said,
but / doubt very much if il will be made.
If some one be foolhardy enough, how
ever. to attempt such a thing 1 have no
doubt IL will prove abortive. / am unalter-
ably opposed to the convention giving its
Endorsement to either presidential candi-
date for the reason that our constitution
declares that We are a nonpartisan organi-
cation. The majority Of our membership
is Republican, and, for this reason, I feel
sure that any attempt TO indorse Mr.. Bryan
would be met by an overwhelming senti-
ment in favor of President Mckinley. /
am a Republican to the core and expect to
support Mckinley by stumping in several
States, commencing this month, yet / am
opposed TO our council indorsiug him.
Representative White has had a long
and interesting public career. In January,
1881, he was elected TO a seat in the lower
branch of the North Carolina legislature.
He afterward served two years in the
Senate and later was elected solicitor and
commonwealth attorney for the eastern
district of North Carolina, a position which
he held eight years. He was elected TO
Congress in 1896 and reelected in 1895.
When asked II the adoption of the amend
ment to the Constitution of North Caro-
lima. DISTINGUISHING the colored voters of

promptly: Il shall not be a candidate for
