Office because she received forty
votes from the old soldiers ut the

ocrats) declaring, not in so many
words but virtually, that the old
soldiers should be placed in the
same category with criminals and
paupers -disfrahchising the very
men who made this country.
Justice Sullivan, republican, to
his credit be it said, dissented
from the majority opinion in vig-
orons language. He, like all right
minded persons, knows that it is
an indignity to disfranchise the
old men who were wounded and
disabled in the service Of this
country. What does it matter
whether they are in certain
county. or not? Did they ask,
when, their country called, which
county they were going TO be sent
to? Would SO unimportant
thing as locality have deferred
these old men from offering their
very lives to their country? No.
Then why should such flimsy
pretext be held forth in order to
disfranchise the country's heroes2
Doesn't it look like mere political
jobbery? We have our opinion

man who will appeal to the su-

soldiers in order to get herself into
the poorest office on the county
ticket. We are not kicking against

CUT WATER Off FOR TWO DAYS
Houses Nos. 800, SO2, SOi Will Not
Connect With Madison Street
Main

There has arisen a cyclonic breeze in
the West Side OF town that is directed
towards the Water Department and
may not terminate outside the county
court. In an attempt to force three
property owners to connect their water
pipes with the Madison street main,
the department cut off the supply of
water from the three houses from 8
o'clock on Saturday morning until y
o'clock on Tuesday. and brought the
wrath Of the occupants of the houses
down upon it with a threatened law
suit.
The houses are occupied and owned
by Mrs. Hannah Smith. Joseph Beste
and Harvey Hoffecker. They have been
connected with the Ninth street water
main for thirty years. and have the
right to remain so connected until 1902.
The Water Department asked them to
connect with the Madison street main
at their own expense, and the request
Is said to have assumed the feature of
a mandatory order, which an attempt
was made to enforce by cutting off the
water supply of the houses. Mrs. Smith
and Mr.. Bates rebelled at once and en-
ployed Benjamin Nields and Andrew
c. Gray to look after their interests.
1t is alleged that as soon as the Off
cials of the Water Department learned
of the determined action of Mrs. Smith
and Mr.. Beste. it turned on the water.
When seen this morning Mr. Beste,
who lives at No. 9O2 Madison street
said that their rights must and should
be preserved. and that if his waste
pipes were stopped on account of the
shutting off Of the water he would make
the Water Department pay the damage
Mrs. Smith has had several stormy
interviews with the officials of the de
partment. in which the latter invar
iably got the worst of the argument.
Mr. HOffecker is said to have beer
influenced by the Water Department tC
agree to enter the Madison street maiI
by a promise of the department L
make the change without expense t.
him Mrs. Smith and Mr.. Beste ar
said to have threatened Mr.. Hoffecke
with legal proceedings il he does any
thing to interfere with their water ser
vice.
AS the water now is turned on an
everything is moving smoothly, it
uncertain what action will be taken i
the matter by either side.
