BOND ISSUE AUTHORIZED.

June %, last, an ordinance was ap-
proved. authorizing the issuing of s1i5.-
600 worth Of per cent. bonds. and the
levying of a tax for the year 1901 of
two mills. to be followed by other taxes
to pay the principal and interest on
the proposed issue. The city clerk Is
now advertising for sealed proposals
for the purchase of these bonds.
The plaintiffs aver that the city can
not legally construct the proposed water
works, because it was already in con-
tract relations with the Crystal Lake
Water company for a supply Of water
when, I'm 1886. it accepted the provis-
ions Of the Act of 1874.
1t is also alleged that the election
last November was illegal, because the
question voted upon was not the one
authorized, one being "the increase of
the city's Indebtedness to Sl45.00O and
the other, "the increase of the city's
indebtedness by $l45,000."
The estimated cost of the water
| is S1I3.S3l.6 .66. If the present S43. .OGS T.
Indebtedness of the city is increased by
that amount, it will exceed the constl-
tutional limit of seven per cent of the
assessed valuation.
Tie estimate made of the cost OF a
municipal water plant for the city of
Carbondale is not a correct, fair or
reasonable estimate. it is claimed. An
adequate municipal water works can
not be built for sl73.S31 &C. nor for less
than $3.50, 900. and viii probably greatly
exceed said latter sum.

THE fight between the liquor and
anti-liquor forces is on in good ear
nest in the General Assembly, and
the liquor men are jubilant over the
fact that they have won the first
round. They have succeeded in hav
ing the bill extending the opera
tions of the four mile law recommit-
ted in the House, and it's quite
likely it will meet the same fate
other measures of a like character
have met before. The representa-
tives of the liquor houses are swarm
ing Nashville, guarding their inter-
ests with jealous eyes, and doing all
in their power to prevent the enact
ment of anti-salocn legislation. And
it is this eager, never-tiring energy
Of theirs, that always brings them
out victorious. There is nothing
truer than the sayIng-"vice is
twice as active as virtue, the latter

LOUD CALL FOR COMPETENT

"Never did the world call more
loudly for young men with force,

COLUMBIA has been talking long
time about wanting a school for
boys; now it has one; will you help
it? Prot. Scobey's school at the
Athen@um is not exclusively for
boys; comparatively few schools are
these day; but it is school where
your chlld-boy or girl-little or
large, can obtain from one who by
education and long experience is
perfectly capable, the best of train
ing in school work. Prof. Scobey
has come here without any blare of
trumpets, to build up school; let's
help him. Help him because we
need him; because the more we help
him, the mere we help ourselves and
our town. He opened Monday
with an enrolment of 10 pupils !;
others have been entered to start
later, and Prof. Scobey is encoura ged
at the prospect ahead. By next
week we hope he will have doubled
his present enrolment, and by salts
factory work this term build fol-
himself large school next fall.

fish an order made by His Honor
Judge Holding upon Attorney Gen
eral Boyd, to prosecute eX-officio the
L. & n. Railroad Co., for their
failure to furnish Columbia with a
depot according to the provisions of

Holding for his order. While he

shows that he is true to the interest
of the people who honored him with
the Office he holds. and that he pro-
poses to discharge his duty in no

benefit possible from the power
vested in the courts. Tennessee

A PUBLICATION in the HERALD
sometime ago in regard to the city's
finance is complained at by some of
the "outs" as misleading, and "a
giving the present Board credit for
something they have not done. The
article does not say so, but the in
ference was that this Board had, or
very soon would, retire some of the
city's bonds; whereas. we are now
told, they have done no such thing,
and are not prepared to do so in the
near future. The bonds, we are
told, are in the hands OF Nashville
bankers, drawing the same interest
with the same regularity as hereto
fore, and the city has no actual cash
at all wherewith to take them up.

loaned out, (Which was all right and
proper is in notes. Some of these
notes are said to be good, some in
different, some bad. The Sinking
Fund Commissioners, we are in
formed, have not been called on for
years for report, and the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen themselves do
not know who the money Is loaned
to. There has been no disposition
upon the part Of anybody to hide
anything, and now that the matter
has assumed the shape it has, we
presume there will be no disposition
to withhold any of the facts from
the public We suggest, therefore,
that the Sinking Fund Commits
sioners give to the press full state
ment Of what their assets are, and
what they consist of; " no the money
is loaned to, and how soon it may be
realized upon; what bonds have
been paid, if any, or what arrange
ments are being made for their pay

know. III fact such report should
be made every year.
