Alderman Clifford disagreed with

The mayor said it would cost over

CUBA AS A PEST-HOLE.

From the Minneapolis Tribune.
A Minneapolis gentleman who has re-
Gently returned from Cuba says that
Notwithstanding the efficient admin
| istration of Governor General Wood.
| and the great reforms he has wrought
in sanitation and otherwise. there is
great dissatisfaction with him among
! the natives. The Cubans," he says.
| are not at all grateful for the i'm
provements made. They claim that the
cleaning up of the city of Havana in or
der to prevent yellow fever has been
done entirely in the interest of the
Americans in Cuba: that the Cubans
do not mind the Yellow Jack. and are
much dissatisfied with the use that has
been made of the revenues for public
Improvement.
In the above revelation of the atti-
tude of the Cubans towards sanitation
and public improvements we get
glimpse of the kind of government that
would be likely to prevail in the island
under unrestricted native rule. To the
native mind it is sheer waste to spend
might be more profitably stolen by the
officials. according to the practice I'M
der the old Spanish regime.
The sanitation of Havana has wild
er range of usefulness than the benefit
of the Americans in Cuba. even if the
CubanS do not mind the yellow Jack.
1t is for the benefit of the people resi-
dent in the United States as well. AS
was shown by a recent quotation in
these columns from the Atlanta Con-
stitution, the source of infection of the
yellow fever epidemics which have sew
eral times ravaged our southern States
mas been Havana or some other Cuban
port. These yellow fever epidemics
have slaughtered thousands of people
and done millions of dollars worth of
damage to trade and industry in this
country. If the Cuban idea prevails.
Cuba would continue to be a source of
infection and a constant menace to the
health and prosperity of the United
States.
Il seems strange that under these
circumstances any American should ia
vor the policy of the United States get
ting out of Cuba and letting the Cubans
have their own way The CubanS
should first be made to give guarantees
of good government. and among such
guarantees should be included a pledge
to continue the sanitary regulations in
augurated by General Wood-or better
ones-under penalty of having the con-
troll of the island taken out of their
hands if they fail to keep the pledge.

Last night the council, at the Sug-
gestion of Mayor Magoffin, officially
invited President Mckinley to stop ov-
er in this city on his westward tour

Among other business transacted by
the council was the sensational allie
CATION made by Alderman Burton that
groceries sold to the pest house had
been charged in many instances at the
rate of so per cent above market prices
and that the eXorbitant prices had
been charged and allowed for a long
time.
. When the clerk called the roll all
answered but Mr.. Ogden and he came
in later The minutes were read and

ley between Texas and Myrtle streets
be granted. AA0
He said he had made a personal in
spection, accompanied by the city en-
gineer, and carefully estimated the
cost. Some of the property holders
agreed to put UP S. each. The report
was adopted.

The bill of s. S. Thorne for furnish
ing water to the pest house for a per-
iod of twenty months at the rate of S..
| per month, caused some discussion.
The council objected to paying for wa
ter prior to the date the contract was
signed for piping water to the pest
house.
Alderman Drummer explained that
John Connors was hauling the water
| himself and the bill was about to be
thrown out when DR. Race suggested
| that it be referred back to the fire and
water committee. So ordered.
w. S. McCutcheon. of the Interna-
| tional Light company. urged that his
bill for more than 500 be allowed.
saying that his company needed the
money. This was the accumulated
money. which had been held back dur
ing the past several months.
Judge Kemp said that any payment
made could be made with the same I'M
Outstanding as heretofore.
Alderman Burton remarked that the
company was asking for money that
had been held back heretofore and he
was not in the habit of doing business
that way.
Alderman Grant said the issue be-
tween the city and company should
have been settled months ago.
Alderman Ogden replied that he be
lieved in paying for what he got and
nothing more.
The city attorney said the minutes
should show that the city was fully
protected by setting forth that no
rights were waived. Mr.. McCutcheon
accepted payment under those condi-
TONS
Pest House Groceries.
Under the head of special commit
tees Mr.. Burton said in checking over
the pest house grocery bills he had
found that Johnny O'Neill the grocer.
was charging excessive rates for many
articles furnished. He said he had
rung O'Neill up and he had replied that
he was charging more to the city be-
cause the payment was inscrip.
The city" he said. can better af-
1ord TO pay cash than to pay exhorbi-
tant prices for goods. This thing has
been going on for some time and it
has apparently heretofore been over
looked by persons whose duty it was to
check up these accounts"
Alderman Ogden recommended that
hereafter all orders for groceries for
the pest house go through the hands of
the health committee
Alderman Clifford said he didn't
think such arrangement would be prac-
ticable.
Alderman Ogden claimed the idea
was perfectly feasible and wanted to
know why il couldn't be done
Alderman Burton alleged that in
many instances goods had been sold
