report to the City Council, that 1t will
be for the issuance Of 100000 worth OF
bonds for the settling basin and water
tower for the West-End. The two seem
to be linked together now in such shape
that some of the members Of the commit
tee will not vote for clear water until
the water tower is provided SO that water
takers in the West-End. especially in Lee
District, can have an adequate supply
IN their second floors. There are some
members on the committee who have de-
clared themselves against clear water I'M
til everybody in the city has a sufliclency
of the water as it is dealt out by the
city now.
The Hicks plan is not looked upon with
much favor by the Clear Water Com
mission. but there is no doubt when the
matter is finally before the Common
Council for consideration, that Mr.. Hicks

lated and understood by the members

an Opportunity to v;|ote upon quitting the

There is no doubt az to the right of the
CITY to issue these short term bonds,
piedging the revenue of the department
for, and if the people Of the city will vote
TO transfer the ten cents per $500 Of taxa
BILE values to the city's Golfers for term
of FIVE years. the whole matter will be
disposed of. and the city can set about to
have the work started as soon as 1t could
be contracted for.

E1REALARM SYSTEM.

The work on the underground system
of the Fire-Alarrn and Police Telegraph is
proceeding slowly and 1t will be some
time yet before all of the cables will have
been connected and in use. Superintend-
ent Thompson said to-day that the wires
on Broad and Main streets would prob
ably be in use in ten days. The work
Is hard and slow. and it is being done
by the regular inspectors without assist
ance.
AS soon as the underground system is
out of the way Superintendent Thompson
proposes to bring the police telegraph SER
vice up to the high standard that the
fire-aIarm service has rea ched. He thinks
the citizens of the city should have the
right to use the police telegraph to call
the police, when needad. as they have to
call the Fire Department. To that end
he will direct his, energies as soon as the
work in hand can be disposed Of

AN INTERESTING MEETING.

a. to Report of Clear Water Com
mission.

The meeting OF the Common Council on
Monday night promises to be one OF the
most Interesting meetings Of that body
for some time, not even excepting the
meeting held recently when the Minor
resolution for a councilmanc investiga-
ton was defeat ted.
The mea sure Of real interest will be the
recomme ton from the Finance. Com
mittee that the liquor license be made
$500. This. 1t will be remembered. Is a
substitute for the Crenshaw ordinance,
which placed the license at $1,000
II is understood that the liquor dealers.
both wholesale and retail will put up a
stiff fight against the measure. Mr.. Cren-
shaw, who Is member of the Finance
Committee. and voted for the substitute,
Will lead she fight for high license.
For some little time there has beer
considerable interest attached to the
stand the wholesale liquor dealers of the
city would take concerning the proposed
high license A gentlemen who Is we'll
known. who follows such questions very
closely. said yesterday that the success
or defeat Of the $500 license depended
largely upon the attitude Of the infuen-
tial whole sale dealers.
There is no doubt but the wholesale peo-
pie desire to see just as many retail
places In the city as the law will allow.
and It was pointed out to-day that the
low dives in the city are the sources
OF the best profit to the jobbers. These
places buy the meanest and cheapest
liquors. on which there is good profit to
the man between the manufacturer and
the retailer.
If the wholesale people take q hand In
the fight 1t will be fight to a finish. be-
cause the class Of people engaged in this
branch of the business can WELD a mighty
influence in the City Council
member of the Common Council said
yesterday that he believed the $500 ordi-
nance agreed upon by the Finance Com
m.ttee would be reduced still further by
the Common Council. He expressed an
opinion that a "hat' rate of 800 would
be agreed upon.
