Money Loaned From One Fund
to Another.
SAYS ISSUE OF BONDS IS LEGAL
His Version of the Affair Which En-.
barraSseS City.
ADVISES ALDERMEN TO TAKE ACTION.
Money to be Restored to General Fund TO
Meet Current City
Expenses.

Some question has arisen in reference
to the validity of issuing bonds now that
part of the money has been paid for the
erection of the Northside fire engine
house and for dredging the river City
Attorney Kelly has been asked for his
opinion, which is to be given next Mon
day night at the council meeting.
The mayor was asked his opinion con-
corning the bond issue. He said 1.-The
entire cost for the erection OF the engine
house and the cost Of dredging the river
has not been liquiduted, only a portion
of the debt has been paid. The taxpay-
ers should understand that the money
used from the general fund to advance
part payment for the erection of the en-
gine house and for dredging the river
was merely loan from one fund to an
other with the definite understanding
that as soon as the bonds were issued the
money used from the general fund would
be restored. | am certain it is entirely
legal to issue bonds for the payment OF
the improvements made, though the
some of payment for the improvements
has already been made We must not
forget, however, that the money used
was loan and nothing more than a
loan.
"The aldermen should see it in this
light and vote for bonds at once so that
an issue can at once be made and the
needed money raised.

A recent correspondent of the New
York Sun complains that neither her
forty-five years nor her consistent ma
tronly dignity preserves her from in
solent attempts to fiirt with her on the
part Of young men who patrol the
highway.
When a woman who Is neither young
nor beautiful and whose conduct Is in
conspicuous can not pass along the
streets unmolested by the attempts Of
well-dressed loafers to attract her at
tention, IL is time that the police ar
rested this trifiing but most unpleasant
kind of nuisance. The masher type
loafs on the street corners Of Lincoln,
and some Of the tobacconists have put
out iron settees which are infested in
pleasant weather by young loafers.
Lincoln is supposed to be a busy place,
but the number of men who are al
lowed to obstruct the sidewalks. from
day to day and from season to season
In not an evidence of prosperity.
Lounging over the radiators in the
foyer of the postoffice, leaning against
the iron fence of the square, by dozens
around the bank corners, this obnox-
ious class Ii allowed to amuse itself
by making unpleasant remarks about
and to the women who pass by.
The city masher Is i'm fear of the
police who asks nothing better than TO
haul him to gaol. The detestable Lin
coin masher is not afraid of anybody.
II he choose to stand all day long in
one spot and cough and leer at every
woman who passes, there Is not a po-
liceman in Lincoln who will interfere
with him and ask him to move on. II
the few policemen who apparently have
nothing to do would undertake the sup
preston Of this increasing nuisance,
the streets Of Lincoln, for whose paw
ing and orderly maintenance women as
well as men are taxed, might be made
passa blee for them.
Those who believe that the world Is
growing better can not reconcile their
belief with the unrebuked presence of
mashers at present with the condition
Of England in the time Of Arthur when
woman could pass from one corner
OF the kingdom to another without be-
ing spoken to or annoyed in any way
