 After long and weary wait the prop erty owners in what is known as District No. of the city of Mobile >are now as- sured that before the present week has elapsed the work of street paving in their district will have begun. This important work is in the hands of the Board of Pub lie Works and, having let the contract for sub-surface drainage and the street paving proper. this body could but await the completion of the first named work before the paving should begin.
 The sub-surface drainage Is well ad- vanced at this time and in order to begin the laying of the pavements, the contract ors have placed large force of hands on Church Street, whose duty it is to put the roadway to the proper grade in order that the concrete foundation can be put down incident to the work of brick paw ing on that thoroughfare. Already two blocks of this grading has been completed and as soon as the third block is com pleted, the concrete will be laid and the brick paying will follow in short order. In order to come within the limit of the law as prescribed in the charter forming the Board of Public Works, it became necessary to widen the sidewalks and de- crease the width of Church Street. Some of the resident property owners made a kick against this movement, but it was ineffectual. ].

John A. Lee was the very cor Of all
the rottenness at Jefferson City. 1t
was his official duty to appoint all
the senate committees and he did
this In the interest Of a handful OF
bOOdlers and g~rafters, so that few as
they were. they held a degree Of pow
er out Of all proportion to their nu-
merical strength. The people, above
every thing else, want TO steer clear
OF such mistakes in the future. The
importance OF the attorney-general's
Office WILL be seen when one reflects
upon the work which has been
in the hands Of MI. Crow in the past
eighteen months. He has had charge
of all the legislative Doodle prosecu-
tions. He has successfully prosecuted
the packing comb ne and is now seek
ing evidence by which these corpora
tioDs may be made to obey the laws
against combinations in restraint Of
trade under penalty of expulsion
from the state. He has developed
the evidence OF illegal combination
in the case OF the st. Louis Bridge
and Terminal Company aud is pro-
ceeding 20 prosecute it under the
law. Now what reader of this paper
can name all the candidates for these
two offices and can give a good esti-
mate of the relative merits of each?
The excessive fuss which the daily
papers are making over the governor
ship contest may be another case Of,

The Oak Grove Banner says; To
illustrate how fast Oak Grove is
growing and the lack OF vacant hous.
es n has only to cite the fact that
all summer the cornet band has
been practicing in the calaboose.
Occasionally a man is lodged in the
town jail and he is treated to a sere-
made by the band 1t is to be hoped
that the Kansas City Star may not
get hold of this item. The medieval
barbarity OF inficting a band concert
upon a helpless prisoner would Sc
harrow the righteous spirit Of the
Star man that we should never hear

Governor Oden has extended the
time a week for the filing Of a brief
by Attorney General Crow in the
William ziegler case. 1t is bard to
understand upon what ground a
states requisftion is ever refused
The article in the constitution reads;
ga person charged in any state with
with treason, felony or any other
crime, who shall flee from Justice and
be found in another state, shall, on
demand Of the executive authority of
the state from which he has fled, be
delivered up, to be removed to the
state having Jurisdiction Of the crime.
The courts may have construed
this language to be only advisory but
it looks mandatory TO the uninitiated,
The language is not equity Of crime
but "charged with crime;', 1t is not
nmay be removed" but ''shall be re.
moved And If ziegler did not flee
from this state, still the expression
''having jurisdiction Of the crime"
eentsmpIates such a case. Besides,
the Taylor case does not even afford
that technical dodge.
