contemplated at nearly all leading cities In the
United States, received by P. G Dun Co. from
their numerous branch ofnces, show unusual acttv-
ity this year and quite much work planned for
as last year though centres higher prices
of materials and uneaslness in labor circles have
reduced the number of new ventures The total
number of permIts granted this year to date IN the
cities reporting is 1925 against 519O for the same
period last year. involving estimated cost Of
s99 595 Oo5 this year against $40364,941 last year
There is a very large decrease reported by Chicago
due in part the that last year at this time
city ordinance pending limiting the height Of
buildings. and many plans that were tentative
were rushed forward to avoid the conditions 10 be
imposed. OmittIng Chicago. the number Of per-
rnits granted year other leading cities shows
a small decrease compared with last year, but the
estimated cost of operations contemplated IS about
the same as last year. Going back to 1901, which
is the largest wear of which there is any record
there Is decrease this year Of nearly 80 per cent
New-YoTk City reports a. considerable loss tnls

There is a noteworthy increase at all points In the

last year. Materials high. especially LUMBER

A CARD TO THE PUBLIC.

Prior to the recent primaries
l was repeatedly urged by sey-
eral prominent citizens to offer
my name as a candidate for al
derman in my ward, but from
business and other considera-
tons, declined the honor. Since
then { l have reconsidered the
matter and now offer my services
as an INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE
FOR Observation-Disclosures, pledg-
ing myself that if elected I will
solely have the interests of the
city in general and Of the tax
payers in particular in view, di-
recting my efforts towards plac-
ing all taxable values on an equit-
able basis, which, I contend, will
furnish all the revenues required
for necessary and legitimate ex-
penditures. 1t can be demons
trated, | believe, that both the
assessments and the tax rate can
be considerably reduced for the
requirements of our municipal
government, and to have this op-
been contending for during the
last three years is my sole object
in offering my services to the
taxpayers, expecting no other
compensation than the up-bui1d-
ing of our city.
Respectfully yours,
HERMAN WETTsTEIN.

Mr.. Cleveland's letter, stating
that he was not a candidate for
the presidency next year, was a
sad missive for those papers that
have been claiming that he was
the only man who could lead the
party to victory. They must
either acknowledge they were
wrong or that the party is GER
tain of deteat.-Campbell News.
Yes, it would be the manly
thing to do.
The Enterprise has never said
that Mr.. Cleveland was the only
man who could be elected, nor
have we seen such a statement
in any paper.
However we have said and still
believe that Mr.. Cleveland is the
strongest candidate the party
could possibly put out, and that
our chances OF success depends
largely on the selection of the
right man to lead the ticket. We
also believe that the party s
greatest handicap consists in the
acute cussedness of the papers
and politicians in populist COM
munities who seem to believe
that every man who ever raised
his voice against the 10 to 1 dam
phoolery is party outcast, de-
serving the contempt of the little
fellows that rode the free silver
craze into conspicuous position
by sheer force of lung power
when the wall went up for the
free and unlimited"

Light" This lighthouse has
been put out of commission be-
cause the shifting sands. outside
Of Nantucket harbor have made

him 81 year.
Thus it will be seen that Fitz-
gerald aldermen arc not the only
men on earth who receive $1.O0
annually for their services.
