Can't They be Provided.

To anyone who has watched the
present method Of filing the city
sprinklers, it is evident. that with
more places to receive water, twice
or three times as much streets could
be covered as is now done. Over
one half of the time is put in in
going after water. In other words
both sprinklers now do not cover
as much ground with water as one
would if couple or three more
places could be provided for filling
the tanks. If this was done all the
side streets could be sprinkled at no
greater cost than the one street now
provides, and the aggregate amount
of expense being fixed, it stands to
reason that the more that there are
to stand this tax the less per capita,
SO to speak, it would be.
vi course 1T ls too late to figure on
this proposfsSon thfs year, but be-
tore another sprinkling season is
upon us the city should devise some
means whereby spfinklers could be
filled without so much ''dead'' haul
ing.

Shook up the Council.

AT the last regular meeting, while
the sprinkling business was under
discussion, Councilman Hull took
occasion to express himself IN pretty
strong terms, about the way the
business was being done. He saw
no reason for removing Thos. Bar
rett and he cited the minutes to show
that the committee had exceeded it's
authority. He said further, the
time had come to call again for
bids for hauling the wagons. 1t
is said by those who heard him,
that Bill didn't mince matters, but
proceeded to unfold the scheme
from the beginning. He took the
further stand that all moneys COM
ing to the city from whatever source
should be turned into the city treas
ury and paid out only on a warrant.
lie said some moneys had recently
been collected and paid out without
this formality, Mr.. Hull served
notice on the council that he would
protest against anything Of the kind
being done hereafter.
AS result of the roasting" the
council reversed the decision of the
street committee, and ordered the
sprlnklers turned back to Thos. Bar
rett from II. FL. Dalrymple. 1t
also ordered the mayor to call for
bids for hauling the sprinklers, to
be opened at the next regular meet
ing.

Cannot Bond for Enough.

At an adjourned meeting last
Friday night Of the city council,
City Attorney Bagley informed the
council that the city could only be
bonded for an amount equal to Is
per cent of assessed realty valuation.
Personal property cannot be nclud-
ed AS the realty valuation of the
city does not exceed $4,000, as
shown by the assessment rolls, it is
evident that the city cannot at pres
ent be bonded for enough to put IN
the proposed system of water works.
Several councilmen, upon this
showing, have expressed themselves
as fayoring franchise to get the
system, with provision that the
city shall have the right to purchase
the same at any time.
The EXAMINER is sorry the clty
cannot reach the proposition, and
since it cannot we favor franchise.
It certainly will not be many years
until the city will have ample asses
sable property to enable it to bond
and purchase any system that is in
stalled.

Why Not Build ItP

TIE EXAMINER wants to call the
attention of the Short Line to the
proposition that we believe good
paying feeder for It's road, would be
the construction of line from this
$ity via Ovid, Paris, Bloomington,
ST. Charles, Fish Haven to Garden
City. The cost of building this
road would be scarcely nothing, as
compared to ordinary roads, for the
Short Line already has the steel in
the shape of the old 52-pound rails
3tored at different points along its
line. There would be no grades
hnd only one bridge of any size, that
bver Bear river.
This proposed line would be
Iabout 80 miles long and pass
through six good country towns be-
sides going directly to what is com
ing to be a great summer resort,
Bear Lake. There would always
be more or less passenger or freight
business, while during the summer
months the tourist travel would be
be splendid, and it is growing
rapidly each succeeding year. All
the country through which the road
wouid-passis is thickiy settled, and
the productiveness Of the region is
we'll known. The business Of the
road would grow in magnitude
from the very day the road was
completed.
The EXAMINER hopes the Short
Line officials will take the matter
up, believing it is worthy Of consid-
Grafton.

Annual Report of the Second Assistant
Postmaster General.

Washington, November 1.-The an
nual report of w. S. Shallenberger,
second assistant postmaster general,
was made public today. 1t shows that
on June Goth last, the n rate Of
expenditure for inland mail service was
s55, lac, 900, for foreign service 81, OLA, 53S;
total expenditures S57, 160, 59S.
The experiment of box delivery on
star routes, whereby persons along the
line could have their mail brought from
the next office by the sta route car
rier n left in a BOX erected by such
persons, a worked satisfactorily in
South Carolina and the next star route
contracts will provide for such service,
increasing the mail facilities in the ru-
raj districts at a moderate increase in
cost.
The special and general weighing
of the mail throughout h United
States, whose results We're an
nounced last February, showed the
railroads carried an aggregate much
greater than generally supposed and
that Sc per cent. of the total mail mat
ter was sent direct to the railroads. The
result of the regular q~uadrennial adj
justment of THE pay for railroad trans
pOrtatiOn in the second contract sec
ton, comprising North and South Car
DINA, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mis-

of over 10 per cent.

A TRUE BILL FOUND
Against the Four Men for the Murder
of Jennie Bosschfeter

New York, November 2.-The grand
jury at Paterson. N. J.. today handed
up indictments against Walter c.. NJ
Alister. George J. Kerr, William A.
Death and Andrew Campbell, who are
charged with the murder OF Jennie
Bosschieter, who was drugged to death
on October 18th. There were two in
dictments against each OF the young
men, one for murder and the other for
ape, h first, il is said. also embrac-
ing the latter.
1t Is said that while the grand jury
was considering the case some Of the
members were disposed to find an in
dictment against S~chulthorp, on his
own admission, as an accessory to the
assault, at least, but. they were in the
minority. The hackman claimed to
know nothing about the condition of
the girl when she was bundled into his
rig and that hen he arrived at the
Rock road he was coerced by two Of
the men into doing as he was told.
1t is alleged that in the course of the
discussion of the case. among the
members of the grand jury it was said
that Jennie's heart was weak and it
was possible that this may have been
the cause of her death. There was no
evidence that chloroform was admins
tered n this point can only be de-
termined by the analysis OF the stom-
ach or by a confession from one of the
accused men. The physicians could not
say positively hat death was due to
a poisonous drug.
The chemical analysis of the dead
girls organs has not been completed,
and no report has been made to the
county physician. Even if-the analysis
does not establish the ADMINISTRATION Of
the drug, it is said nat the state may
elect to eliminate that feature of the
matter and proceed to trial upon the
assumption that the violence of the as
assault caused heart failure and death
n that would entail the death pen
the drug.
