CITY IMPROVEMENT
Large Extension of the Water
Mains and Sewers

At the meeting of the City Council
on Tuesday evening it was resolved to
extend the water mains in various
parts of the city to an extent equal.
ing in length 387k blocks, IL blocks
OF which extension is to be on the
north side. But it was provided that
this work must be done within the
amount of the annual appropriation, or
that the work of extension ceases
when the appropriation shall be e
hausted.
1t was also resolved to extend the
sewerage system to the extent of 20
blocks in length, being all on the south
side and east OF Main street. Pro.
vision was also made for ample pump.
ing capacity at the sewerage pump
house, by installing a water elevator
capable of lifting 500 gallons per min
ute. This elevator to be operated by
a water motor OF from 6 to 16 horse
power, run by artesian wells. The
pumps In use at present handle only
zoo gallons per minute, When this
elevator is put in the pumps would
be dispensed with in ordinary times.
but always ready in case of emer.
gency. The cost of this arrangement
the committee on waterworks and
sewers are assured would not exceed
1850. In case at any time the water
oawer should fail a gasoline engine of
10 horse power would operate it.

AS To A HARMONY.

There seems to be an undue amount
of worry of late among republican pa
pers over the inharmonious condition
of the democratic party, which they fiat
ter themselves into believing augers
i'll for the future success of Democra-
cy. The fact of the matter is, that the
democratic discord is all on the sur
face and results from divergent views
held by men who are equally sincere
and honest. Differences will certainly
be sunk in devotion to a common
cause. Cleveland will not be nomin-
ated; Bryan will not bolt the regular
nominee, whoever he may be, as he
is not that kind of a Democrat
The leaders of Democracy in the east
although at times they have affected to
sneer at what they termed the popu-
lism of western Democrats, may, if it
fall to them 10 shape the policy Of the
party, find themselves constrained by
the irony of fate to o%ut-populist the
fusion Democrat. Even if the Hill
Gorman-Cleveland element seems to
gain control of the party, there a be
no alternative but to fight monopoly.
The time is gone by when the Demo
cratic party could be made s~ubservient
to the trusts. The latter have plainly
made it manifest that they have re-
tanned the Republican party to repre-
sent their side of the case, and conse-
quently the Democrat party has no
other choice but to champion the cause
of the exploited.
If u friends of the opposition press
would indulge themselves in a little
int%rospection, they could observe a
most fatal inharmony within their W
organization which the longer it is re-
pressed and covered up, the more fierce
and fatal the irruption will be when it
does come. The vast armies of labor
whose votes throw either way the cleo
toral votes of illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
Pennsylvania and New York are grow
ing FESTIVE. Prosperity has come to
them in the shape of a ten e cent
rise in wages, accompanied by a thir-
ty per cent increase in the cost of
living. An emphatic cry for tariff re
form came out of the West when the
last congress assembled, and, although
it came from Republican states, utter
ed by Republican press and party lead
ers, it was ignored. The other fellows
have serious need to consider their
W inharmonious condition.

Since the legislature adjourned
pierre sentiment is showing up in
Brown county. 1t is quite generally
conceded that it is decidedly to the
interest of Aberdeen that the town
IN the Missouri continue to he the
apital of South Dakota. 1t is safe
to predict that Brown County will
20 two to one in favor of Pierre when
it comes to the show down. But a.
side from the question OF interest the
opinion prevail that a S a question OF
fair play Pierre has won the right TO
retain the capital.

LEGISLATORS VISIT us.

The legislative train consisting OF
| fifteen coaches in two sections in
| charge of Conductors Fitch and Finne,
gan arrived here Saturday at about
noon and after stop of two hours
left for tower and the Mesaba range.
The senators occupied one section
and the lower house the other. The
various officials of the two iron orc
roads, the Duluth & Iron Range and
the Duluth, Misabe & Northern, ac-
companied the party. Representatives
of the twin Twin City newspapers We're
also in the party.
The people of Ely had received no
definite word of their coming and con-
sequently no reception was ATTEMPTED.
However, few of the citizens met the
train and rendered their services to-.
wards plotting the party about the
mines and city. After visit to tha
chandler and Pioneer mines, Which
brought forth references to the pleas
ures experienced by many of the party
IN viewing an iron mine for the first
time, lunch was served on the cars.
several of the legislators expressed a.
desire to go underground, but the short
ness of the stay prevented this.
FROM Tower the party went to Biwa-
blk and on to the other range points.
AT Hlbbing, the great Mahoning mine
was visited and also the other workings
about that city. The party left Hin
ping at o'clock Sunday morning for
the return to st. Paul.
Governor Van SAINT was with tba
party as was also Congressman Morris
L. M. Wilcutts, w. E. Culkin, joseph
Cotton, t. F. Cole, DR.. Hulst. w. A.
McGonagle, d. M.Philbin, E. H. Win
dom, Thos. Owens, E. r. Angst AMI
many other notables. The visit was
productive of much good to st. Louis
county and somewhat opened the eyes
OF the farmers from the southern part
of the state.
