Gentlemen:-

]
We, the undersigned committee,
/ appointed by your honorable body,
to investigate and report the most
practical and feasible plan OF
furnishing our town with proper fire
protection, beg leave To make the
following report:
We, your committee, for several
weeks past have been diligent and
earnest in the discharge of the duties
assigned us aud have met many
obstacles 10 discourage us in our
work. We submitted TO The Cat
| lrttsburg, kenova and Ceredo Water
Works Companya written request to
make propositions to furnish our
town with such fire protection,
believing then aud now that it is the
only water works company that is
situated In sufficient close proximity
TO our town 20 furnish such fire
protection. After some weeks of
delay said water works company
submitted TO your honorable body,
through your committee, contract
tor franchise which your commit
tee, respectfully submits As a part
of this report.
Between four and five years ago
The Catlettsburg, Kenova and Cere-
do Water Works Company applied
to the Common Council of the town
Of Ceredo for franchise to furnish
fire protection tor the town The
terms Of the franchise were 5000.
per year, for a term of 90 years,
the water works company agreeing
to furnish a good fire protection to
the town during the time. This
application for franchise to said
company was rejected by the town
council after a protest signed by
many of our citizens, protesting
against the town council allowing
ANY KIND of a franchise to said
company, had been presented,
Since that time we have had
several destructive fires in our town
and y mas no doubt deem demon
Strated to all that had the town Of
Ceredo GRANTED the said company
n franchise at that time enough
property could have been saved in
the mill fire alone to have paid the
six hundred dollars per year for the
entire 20 years, and then some.
At that time wages for labor were
low and the price for water pipe was
only about one-half Of what 1t il
today.
The franchise now asked for by
The Catlettsburg, Kenova and Cere
30 Water Works Company will il
granted, cause the town of Ceredo
to be one of the best fire protected
towns in The State.
Looking only to the interest of
the town of Ceredo in this matter
and as it is question in which
every citizen Of the town is greatly
interested, also feeling that your
honorable body would and should
desire an expression Of the legal
voters of our town on the question
As TO whether The Catlettsburg,
Kcuova and Ceredo Water Works
. Company shall be granted the fran

powers of his new and complete special
treatments by mail for heart disease.
Short breath, pain in the side, oppres.
sion in the chest, irregular pulse, pal

send two dollars and a half worth free
as a trial to all who mention this p
His treatments are the result of
twenty-five years of careful study, ex.
tensive research and remarkable exper-

of the heart, stomach and nerves which

ishing are the results of his complete
special treatments that he does not hes.

Nothing could be more generous. Few
physicians have such confidence in their
remedies. There is no reason why
every afflicted person should not avail
themselves of this exceedingly liberal
offer, as they may never have another
such opportunity. No death comes as
suddenly as that from heart disease.

The Emancipation Jubilee Celebra,
tion.

Tho REPORTER went to press too early
last Wednesday to- give an account of
the44secopdS days celebration. The
weather was all that could be desired
and the crowd was probably double that
of Tuesday. The Buxton band again
furnished excellent music. The after.
noon program at the park consisted of
songs by the :Hawkeye quartette, Of
Des Moines, and several Rotations by
young ladies. Therspeaker of the day
was George H. Woodson, of Muchika-
mock, who was introduced by Samuel HI.
Reed, and he delivered a powerful and
able address on the negro question in
general. He is an educated and talent.
ed young man and his address was
greatly enjoyed by the audience. At
the close of Mr.. Woodson's address
there we're short speeches made by
Elder A. E. Hatch and Charles Pugh.
A large crowd attended the second
ball game at the base ball park in the
afternoon between Des Moines and
Atchison, Des Moines again winning by
the decisive score of II to 6. The Atch-
ison club and quite a crowd of followers
had come to this city prepared to back
Atchison to win both games and they
dropped considerable money on the two
games.
There were several thousand people
gathered on Main street in the evening
to witness the finals in the cake walk
for u prize cake, but they were some.
what disappointed, for only n couple
made their appearance on the platform.
So far as attracting large crowds the
celebration was a decided success.
The managers, Messrs. Caldwell & John.
son, had spent much time in working
up the celebration, and went to a big
expense for their band, ball teams, ETC.,
and we are sorry that they came out
loser. Their expenses were very heavy
and the receipts from all sources lacked,
about $50 of settling all claims, but the
managers say they will settle every
thing as quick as possible. This will in
all probability be the last emancipation
celebration here, as it seems impossible
to finance the affair so that it is not
given at a loss.
