Resolved, That the Clerk Of the City Gas

Of this 81 ,023,23 still remains unpaid, and
also what cum, OF money have been received
from s,le OF gas, tsr, coke, &C., for the six

what is the amount due upon any of these sc.
counts"
or the 81 O23. % gas bills unpaid juno /,
1901, there has beon collected $607. SO,
leaving balance of $516 80 still due, about
80 per cent Of which Is uncollectable, the gss
having beeL cut of, and the consumers left
the city.
also submit herewith q comparative state
ment, ss part Of this report, showing that
there was charged copsumers for the ak
months ending November 80, 1901, billa TO
the net amount Of $40, 900 AZ. and OF this
sum So, 396.O6 has been paid, leaving bal
snce Of S99442.
1t is we'll TO observe, however, that this
$40, 29O 48 represents ssle Of gas only for
what Is known as the short quarters, and
represents about two-thiTds Of what is charged
In long quarters--thst lie, quarters endiL z
December and ksrch OF each year.

owing on tar and lime sales and only $4,000
on account Of coke sold since June /, 1901.
It will be noticed in comparative statement
OF gas sold consumers during the six months
ending November 80, 1901, that there was
an increase in the consumption Of gas Of

ponding months Of last year, which at 81 80

assuming all had been paid during discount
period would amount to $1,076.52. This
increase in consumption is about Ii per cent
as compared With last year. OF course IL
cannot be predicted with any degree OF cer-
tainty that this increase will even approx
mately continue during The next two quar-
ters, which are long ones, but should iuch be

VIRGINIANs HoNoRRD.-The United

noted Virginians, by placing their por-
traits on the new $40 notes. They are
Meriweather Lewis and William Clarke
who became famous 10 exploring the
great Northwest country. 10 1904,
when Thomas Jefferson was President,
he appointed Mr.. Lewis, then OF Abe
marie county, but of the Fredericksburg
family of that name, and who had been
an officer in the Revolutionary War,
his private secretary, to head an ex-
petition to explore this vast country.
Mr.. Lewis selected William Clarke, of
Fredericksburg, son Of Jonathan
Clarke and brother of Gen. George
Roger Clarke, who 26 years before had
driven the British from that territory,
as his companion. The exploring party
was composed OF 30young men, negro
boy and dog, and two years we're
spent 10 successfully exploring the wilds
Of the Northwest, which afterwsrd
we're traversed by General Fremont.

FRIDAY EVENING, DEC. 10. 1901

ON MONDAY last Senator McLaurin
on the floor of the Senate made per-
soual explanation Of his political course
during the past two years. His lame
excuse for posing as democrat, being
elected by democratic constituency 10
rsnrasent a southern democratic State
in the United States Senate, while at
the same time he was acting Just %
much q republican as suited nis pur-
poses, will deceive no one. Mr.. NC
Laurin was certainly unfortunate 10
hIs references to Randall, Hancock and
Hill in ylndication of his recent CONVEX
sion. Mr.. McLsurin said that although
Samuel ]. Randall had advocated o
protective tariff, he had been voted for
In a democratic national convention
for President. Hancock, although ne
declared that the tariff was local issue,
had been nominated for President, and
David B. Hill, although he opposed the
income tax, had not been read out OF
the democratic party. This Is partly
true. Samuel ]. Randall was voted for
in the convention. de was also not
only voted for, but elected Speaker OF
the House OF Representatives by votes
of southern democrats who did not
agree with him on the tariff question.
Randall was q party man; attended
every democratic caucus and when Car
Isle was elected speaker Randall was
made chairman of the committee on sp'
propriations. Randall. however, was
not consulted as to who should I'LL the
federal Offices In Pennsylvania under a
republican administration. Hancock
did say after he was nominated Tor
President, not before, that 1.-THE tariff
was a local ISSUE" Many democrats
believed then as now that the tariff is,
to some extent, local question. Ex-
Senator Hill has opposed an Income
tax, and in this opposition he was
wrong, but he is not asking for for
giyeness for this one sin and is not beg
gIpg to be taken back into the demo-
cratic fold, because, as he claims, he has
never been out; nor did he ever have
the ear of republican administration.
The South Carolina senator should Sc
lect some other names to cover up bis
political short comings. This triumvi-
rate of democratic leaders-two deld
aud one liviug-when compared With
Senator McLsurin-well, the COMPARE
son is too one sided, too much OF
misfit,

Mr.. HANBURY, president OF the
board OF agriculture, bewsiled the mis-
fortunes OF the British farmer ia a
speech before the Farmers Club In
London on Tuesday night. He con-
trasted the position Of the British farm
or with that of the farmer In the United
States. where, he said. the government
assisted agricultural interests, realizing
that the greatness Of the nation de-
ponds upon the material prosperity OF
the country. Mr.. Hamburg said that
ne considered that agriculture OF Great
Britain had been deliberately sacrificed
atty years ago to the building up Of
manufacturing industries OF the coun-
try. Mr.. Hamburg Is right when he
says the greatness of nation depends
upon the material prosperity OF the
country, but be is dead wrong when he
says this government assists sgricultu-
raj interests. Why agriculture and
everything else Is now sacrificed to the
building up of manufacturing trusts
and If this keeps up much longer the
American farmer will be In as bad 8
plight as Mr.. Hamburg describe the
Rugllsh farmer, II he lie not already 3d.
