the hearty approval Of the people gen.

the hearty approval Of the people gen
orally. He recommends that the ordi.
nances be revised and published in
book form, and, considering that they
were last printed almost decade ago,
the necessity for such revision and
printing is apparent. Many Of the ordi-
nances in the old book are now obsolete
and many new and important ones since
passed are not available for reference by
the public. The necessity for a
permanent gutter down either side of
Main street is also apparent. During
the fall, winter and spring months the
need of such improvement is especially
pronounced. The mud holes should be
eliminated from in front Of the business
houses and inasmuch as the business
men have shown purpose Of doing
what they can for the betterment Of the
street by putting in permanent walks,
the city government shOnld do its share
toward placing the thoroughfare in
proper condition. This work has been
too long delayed and should be under
taken at once. Sidewalks should be
built aud kept in repair wherever. the
requirements of pedestrians create q suf-
ficient demand. His desire that the
water commissioner and the engineer at
the pumping station do not work at
cross purposes is likewise worthy one
and an adjustment Of possible differ
ences should be undertaken. The light
ing question is pertinent and some set.
Element should be made that would be
satisfactory to the people. There is
an unquestioned demand for better
lighted streets but there has been an un.
deniable change in sentiment as to
how the matter should be settled since
the last bond election. The suggestion
Of more thoroughly informing the people
on the subject is fair one and those on
either side of the question should be
willing that such knowledge be fur
nished that will enable them to arrive
at just conclusion regarding the
matter. 1t cannot be hoped sthat there
will be satisfaction with the presen,
number of street lights and with nc
understanding as to what should be
done to an adjustment of the difficulty
1t is desirable that the expense of an
other election be saved if that will moi
settle the matter, but if it will perma
nently dispose Of the controversy Il
should be undertaken, 1t might bt
possible to adjust the question without
such expense but settlement is de
manded in some way, and perhaps {
thorough investigation of municipa
lighting by an unprejudiced committe,
Of councilmen would result in sucl
settlement. This would be more eco
nomical than an election, but if an cleo
tion is found necessary, the people coult
vote with an understanding that woult
enable them to reach a just and salts
factory conclusion.

In his candid admission that the
American Sugar Refining company has
undertaken to dispose of the beet sugar
industry as dangerous rival, il is con-
sidered that President Havemeyer has
made good opening for the prosecu.
ton of his company under the federal
law for violation of the Sherman law in
restraint of trade. It is evident that he
talked too much and injured rather than
benefited his company.

slowly at first but soon acquires it's

or so, the papers are examined as they
come from the press, and II the mar
gins are exactly even, and the printing
excellent. the full speed OF the machine
is applied until the ditlon is run off, or
until II Is necessary to renew the paper

The streams Of paper fairly fly
through the seeming tangle OF steel,
and glide swiftly down over the smooth
face OF the triangular-sh former
which gives the sheets the first or
longitudinal fold; combined folding cy-
finders give the second fold at right
angles to the first, and the completed
paper, simultaneously with the second
fold, is cut and delivered ready to read.

that the papers are dropped by the de-
livery fans faster than the eye can
count them.
