The Enterprise and the new
city council are good friends.
We were good friends through
out the campaign, and we hope
the good feeling will continue
throughout their term of Office,
but we may fall out. The En-
terprise will fall out with any,
body who has big ideas about the
city'S payroll. We believe that
the same rifles al economy
should be applied to the eNpcn-
diturc of the city money that a
good business man would apply
to his private affairs and we will
stand by this proposition and de-
fcnd it as best we can regardless

BRYAN AND POPUL.SN.

Mr.. Bryan will not believe that
populism is dead. He says:
The fact is that the Populist
movement has beenof great bene-
fit to the Democratic party and to
the country. 1t helped to save
the Democratic party from an
Inhalation and it helped to teach
economic truths to Republicans
who would not listen to Demo
cratic Speakers"
Mr.. Bryan has been a pop
ulist, since the first days of
the Farmers alliance, but he has
been affiliated by the democratic
party until he thinks he is the
whole thing.
We have the same opinion of
Bryan today that we had the day
he was nominated at Chicago. He
is brilliant politician--not a
statesman nor a democrat.

Utilizing a Turtle.

Tradition says that the queen Of
Sheba asked Solomon to thread an
intricately pierced stone and that he
did SO by means of hair tied to q
living worm. A long sewer in an
Ohio factory recently became clog
ged, and a son of Solomon came to
the rescue. Tying long ball Of
Irvine to the shell of a mud turtle,
he put the animal into the entrance
of the sewer and turned on stream
of water. The turtle burrowed his
way through the refuse, was eva
tered on" at each manhole and
emerged victorious at the outlet. A
rope attached to the Irvine, a swab
and strong arms accomplished the
rest swiftly and economically.

The Enterprise in common
with the good citizens. of the
country is glad to see the con-
vlcts return to work on the pub
lie highways. Properly man
aged it is probably the most eco
nomical and effective way to build
public roads, but there is room
for not only mismanagement, but
other mistakes that would bring
the plan into disfavor with the
tax payers. This, however, we
do not expect from the present
board of able commissioners in
whom we have great confidence.

from St. Louis a dispatch anent

that the Bryan democrats would

and that they will not be salts

not support the democratic tick

he did not support Bryan and

One of the few Christmas
presents received by the Enter

rade(comrade in Fitzgerald par

just as veteran means an ex-con-

"a comrade, and the present, al
though not of great intrinsic
value, was one that we admire
and one that will1ast many years.
1t was purchased in the city of
Boston for the editor of the En-

who faced them in battle forty

COST or OCEAN sPEEDIha.

Much has been said Of late re-
garding the speed of the German.
Atlantic greyhounds. Not enough,
perhaps, has been said regarding the
cost of this speed. The latest crea-
ton of the North German Lloyd,
Kaiser Wilhelm H., Is designed to
do twenty-four knots an hour at an
expenditure Of 10000 indicated
horsepower. Our White Star liner
Cedric, the largest ship in the world,
will go seventeen knots with $4,000
horsepower. But, says the Shipping
World, the Kaiser Wilhelm will
burn $50 tons Of coal per day, which
is 100 per cent more than the Ce-
dric, and she will need 256 moro
hands to work her. Curiously
enough, of her crew Of 800 only for
ty-fve will be ordinary sailors, the
remainder being mechanics of vari-
GUS orders.-LOndon Telegraph.
