City Council Finances,

City Council Is having its own timo over
finances Comment Is heard on all sides
Council will have to make an extra up
preparation to meet the requirements OF
thu Council. 1t was claimed by Council
that the present crematory would DO much
more economical than the old one, and at
the beginning of the present fiscal yeai
~ 800 was set aside to run 1t for year.
I here are yet four months In which the
crem aIory must be run. and sume Of them
will BIZ heavy months for garbuge yet tho
money has been spent ard $40 or more
has already been >ferred from other
appropriation. to this one. At the present
rate the crematory has cost something
over 1915 month for maintenance. 1t
will, therefore, cost 81, 800 more to run
1t for the balance Of the ii cal year, aud
this Will make tho total cost of MAIN
tcnanco for the year 80, 100, instead of
90 800, as first thought.
IL l., claimed however, that the cost of
maintaining the crematory for the bal
nnce of the year will not DO so high in
proportion n, II has been, because repairs
have been necessary during the present
year which will keep tho garbage furnaces
in good condition Tor some inc to come.
Bricklaye-s have boon at work on he fur
naces for several weeks, and several hun.
drcd dollars have BEEN spent for these re-
p,irs. 1t is Claimed, however. that the
work has been done better than ever be-
fore and will last longer.
The preparation of the public build
Ing COMMITTEES had previously been in
creased 500 by the Council. The only
trouble with this account appca,s to be
that a mistake was made in tho begiu-
ming in not giving enough money 70 tho

The Democrats denounce Presi.
dent Mckinley without rhyme or
reason. He cannot do anything TO
please them, as they wish to defeat
his reelection and are determined,
II possible. to lead men to vote for
their candidate. The desire to get
office is at the bottom of their op.
position. Patriotism or love of our
institutions has little influence over
them. To obtain control Of the
government, they would sell their
souls. The course of their party
IN Kentucky shows to what depths
they will descend. There the Re-
publicans had a decided majority
for Governor, but they refused to
allow him to discharge the duties
OF the office. At the next election
they hope to elect their candidates
and if they fail to secure a ma jor.
ity of the electors, they will, on the
slightest pretext, seize by force,
what they failed to obtain through
the ballot box.
