roIlrcr Tur GARBAGE

,Vlminpton garbage contractors are
not doing their duty. Complaints
bearing out this assertion are heard
n ali parts of the city. Immediate
stems should be taken by the city au-
thorities to compel proper discharge
Of the contracts entered into by these
men and, il they persist IN their pres
emit course, they should be removed
from Office. and new and better men
mt IN their places. For several months
the people have suffered ana sub
mittea to the present order OF things
until at last it has passed the stage q
human endurance.
Cases are reported TO this Office by
indignant citizens who say that often
ten days elapse between collections =
their districts. Not that alone, but
when complaint is made to the gar
bare men who accompany the wagons
it is alleged that they pay little or mo
heed to the complaints, but are insult
ing in their language and demeanor
towards the complainants.
In the matter OF public sanitation
the frequent and thorough removal OF
garbage from the thousands Of homes
in our city occupies a place of prime
Importance. While the garbage con-
tractors look at the work from O
money-making point of view, to The
people it has a wider, more important
and less sordid aspect They know
that there are few things more preju-
dicial to public health and comfort
than to have decaying vegetable and
animal matter remaining on the prem
iscs day after day, until it suits The
convenience and money-making pur
poses Of the garbage men to como and
get Il and take it away 10 be destroyed
When complaints are made and called
to the attention of the contractors they
usually are loaded with excuses fol
the men they employ But that thing
IS played out and some steps must b'
taken to bring these careless servants
OF the people TO q realization Of th'
fact that they must perform their du
ties or get out and make way for thosl
who will. We cannot run the risk %
an epidemic just to serve the convent
ence OF garbage contractors and theiI
subordinatcs. especially IN such i'm
seasonable weather as this. when thN
natural conditions are fraught will
prejudice to humanity.
Since City Council took charge O
the garbage collection and deprivei
the Board OF Health OF its prope
powers, things have gone from goo
to bad and from bad to worse unit
nobody seems to have proper jurisdic
tion.

A Hot Supporter.

Andrew Carnegie isa hot SUI
porter of Mr.. Mckinley. There
was at one time some danger that
he might favor Mr.. Bryan. On the
18th of February 1900, he gave
the New York World the follow.
ing statement of his views on the
Philippine War:
"The Philippine burden is not
chargeable to war. This is the
Presidents own Pandora box, his
New Years gift to his country, for
which he alone is Responsible.
Neither Congress nor the people
had any voice in the matter. But.
one need not wonder why he should
now attempt to evade the responsi5
bility, since he tells as that every
red drop, whether from the veins
of an American soldier or mis-
guided Filipino, is anguish to his
heart" His conscienoe smites
him. No wonder. The guilty
Macbeth also Dried out. Thou
canst not say / did it,3 Whetherl !
the acquiBition OF the Phflippinest P
was wise or foolish, they are upon
our hands, not by war, but by the
own aot, and he had
better stand up like man and as
sumo the responsibility, asking his
to forgive bis mistake
f he now secs he has made one"
Now he swallows Mckinley,
and all He illustrates
he declaration in the Good Book

through the eye of needle than

the river on fire with my future
career. I am glad that / have a

am not going to misuse it by writ
ing poetry or essays about the
future woman. It will enable me
to correct the grammer of any
lover 1 may have, should he speak
of 'dorgs' in my presence, or say
he went 'somewheres,' or seen a
man. It will also come handy
when l want to figure out how
many pounds of soap woman can
get for three dozen eggs at the
grocery. So l do not begrudge
the time spent in acquiring it,
But my ambitions does not lily 80
high. / just want to marry man
who can 'liok' anybody of his
weight in the township, who can
run an eighty-aore farm and who
has no female relatives to come
around and try to boss the ranch

him that won't send him to an

whole lot of wholesome affection

fight for Senator in the Fifth dis

conservative in his views and man
ner. He has had valuable ex-
perience in each braroh of the
Legislature and his constituents
never had closer worker and a
more faithful and efficient repre-
sentative. Not only should he be
elected out of gratitude for the
good work he has done, but be-
cause he would accomplish more
good in future sessions than most
any man who could be elected. Ii
the voters of the Fifth district
elect Mr.. Brown they will have
something more than mere good
fellow to represent them. In adj
dition to having good man they
would have valuable representa-
tive.

At the presidential election this

AT the presidential electlon tnlt
year the advance of woman's suf.
frage is made manifest by the fact
that about 145, 900 women will cast
their votes for President of the
United States, and if these votes
were thrown largely one way would
probably control the choice of
thirteen electoral votes, and that
number of electoral votes in certain
emergencies may control the choice
of President. The States whore
women are allowed the full suffrage,
and so vote for President, are Col
orado, Idaho, Utah and Wyoming
The women of Wyoming have al
ready voted in two elections for
and the women of Color
ado and Utah in one suoh election.
In Idaho the women will cast their
frst presidential ballots next
month. With these four States,
unrestricted female suffrsge for all
over 81 years Of age, seems to have
made halt, and there does not
seem much probability of it's furth-
,r extension. Kansas was the last
State to vote on it, and after an ao-
I've and aggressive campaign on
he part of the suffragigts, rejected
he proposition.

Democratic Victory in tho Air.

Democratic Victory in tho Air.
New York Journal.
Mr.. Bryan's triumphal tour
through New York has made man
ifest to the public what has been
growing increasingly familiar for
some time to those in touch with
political movements. 1t has made
it clear that everything is converg-
ing toward the overwhelming sue
cess of the Democratic candidate.
The tremendous registration might
have meant anything. We are
learning what it actually did mean.
It meant that Mckinley had polled
his last attainable vote in 1896, and
that now the Democrats were TAX
ing their turn. The Republican
managers have shot their bolt
They reached their limit four yeare
ago, and now the Democracy is
about to establish new record.
