GRAVE CHARGES

With all the efforts OF the re-
publican papers to defend the state
administration in their trouble
with settlers on Joseph plains and
other parts of the state, it will be
hard to convince the people that
premeditated scheme had not been
planned to rob the settler of his
home, or force tribute of some sort
from him. The following which
was recently published in the Mos
COW Star, strong republican pa
per, contains charges, which if
true should condem all who have
had anthing to do with the matter:
"From time to time evidence ac-
cumulates that the republican state
committee knew what it was doing
when it did not endorse the pres
emit state administration. An in
terestiDg chapter Of this nature
was added in Moscow, during the
past week, when an appointee OF
the administration made the brazen
proposition to prominent repub-
ican that the state would refrain
from taking the land of the settlers
to which the state assumed to have
q prior right, provided these set
tiers would get in and support the
administration in it's efforts to be
reelected. The aforementioned
republican to whom this proposition
was made says that it came ou'
flat-footed, with no possible chanc,
as to misunderstanding as to i'll
meaning, and with the proviso ad
ded that in case the settlers dit
not accept the proposition the stat
would take their lands and com
pei them to contest.
"The Star has no hesitation il
declaring that this is the most out
rageous and brazen act that ha
come under our observation, an
we have seen some shameless
things in politics. Possibly Go,
Morrison's agent who made thi
proposition has forgotten how on
of his professors tried to rob til
settlers of Latah county of the
lands how they contested the on
rage and how they won out in I'll
land department. With nearl
two million acres withdrawn fro
settlement and with much Il
larger part of the states grant a
ready selected, it would seem tn
is enough for the state to take wit
out robbing the settlers or atten
ing to debauch them by bribil
their support for the present a
ministration by promise to reta
their lands.

It Pays a Premium Of $3.50 for
4 Per cent.
The Acceptance Of the Firms Bid
Was Wired by Mayor Yesterday
For the City.
MORE NEGOTIATIONS YET.

Last night at Z O'Clock Mayor ID. A.
Yciser and the joint finance commit
tee composed of Aldermen Orme,
Kraus. Singleton and Councilmen
Rehkopf and Riglesberger, finance
committee met in the formers Office
and opened bids on the $500, 900 street
Improvement, market house and city
hospital bonds to be foated by the
city. and awarded the contract TO the
Western German Bank, Of Cincinnati,
o., the bid Of this bank being the best.
About eight bids from other banks
and bonding firms were opened but
briefly considered.
The proposition made by the Cinci-
nnsti bank is Q most liberal one, the
firm agreeing to pay q premium Of
$3.50 for the issue. The proposition
made In the written bid was to take
the bonds at Per cent. interest, date
August LIST. 1904. TO pay par, pre-
MUM of $3.50, total $500, $50, and ao-
cured interest.
The Mayor and Finance Commit
tee wired the Cincinnati firm i'm
mediately after the bid was accepted
Of their action and will at tho next
meeting Of the council and sldermanio
board make report and secure the
ratification of their action.
The bonds which will be issued are
for street improvements. $3.50, 900; q
new market house s25. 900 and . new
city hospital s25, 900. II will require
several weeks before the money is in
the hands of the city officials for use,
but every effort will be made to push
the matter and when the money is in
the treasury, the work on the hospital
and market house will begin.
There had been an inclination on
the part OF the city, ii seems, to lag
in closing the contract for the Old
Fort property on which the new city
hospital will be built, but now that
the bond matter is settled, . site will
be secured and work commenced.

Architect Brainerd HasFinished
the Drawings.
A Meeting Of the Committee to be
Held Tuesday to Pass on
the Plans.
OTHER BUILDING


city hospital has about been completed
by Architect william Brainerd, and
will be submitted to . meeting of
the hospital committee in the Office
of DR.. Frank Boyd next Tuesday
evening.
The proposed plan is of . plain
brick building, In the shape Of
GROSS. The rooms extending to the
'front.' will be an Office on one side and
reception room on tho other on
first floor. One wing is a colored
ward for women on the first floor
and for men on the second floor.
The other wing will be for white
patients. Each is entirely separate,
with individual approaches, but both
connected with 9 main hallway, back
of the office and reception room.
Both wards contain 40 beds.
In the back Of the building, and
over the office and reception room in
the front, are private rooms. There
re about 30 Of these, and from them
the physicians believe that the hospi-
tai can finally be made self sutsining.
Beside the private ward on the first
floor to the rear, are matron rooms,
nurses dining room, and serving room.
In the basement are the kitchen,
laundry, etc. Each department 10 we'll
equipped with toilet rooms, closets
and similar cnnveniepces. ..-..
Through endorsement is the driveway
leading to elevator entrances on either
side. One Of the physicians Of the
hospital committee stated this morn
ing that he thought the hospital would
be begun about the first of August
and completed by the first Of January,
1905. The option on the site on
North Fourh street has already been
secured. and the preliminary work Of
getting the appropriation paid over,
the plans put into definite shape and
the contract let will probably not take
longer than two months
1t has been suggested in the hospital
committee that the hospital be named,
and the name of Joe Thompson las
been suggested. in honor of the lat
DR.. Joseph W. Thompson, one OF Pa.
duoah's most eminent physicians, o
brother Of Mr.. George @. Thompson
and father of Mr.. Gus Thompson.
Dr.. Thompson had the distinction of
originating the hospital system on
the l. o. road, so the compliment
would be o fitting one.

Another matter that the solicitor has
been asked to inquire into is whether
or not the city is liable to the gas
company for damages to the latter's
pipes from the use of binders in recon-
structing sidewalks.
Another opinion that is awaited is
in regard to the repairs to the brick
streets on Broadway. The solicitor
has been instructed to investigate the
city's contract with Patterson g. Por.
teous preparatory to notifying Con-
tractor Patterson and his1 bondsmen
to repair the streets, so IL refused the
city may have the work done and sue
to recover.
The board does not believe that the
matter referred to IL BY the general
council relative to an alley Judge
Campbell has on West Broadway comes
under the jurisdiction, and has asked
the solicitor to decide SO. 1t claims
that if the alley encroaches on any
ones property the question should be
settled in the courts, not the board of
public works.
The board Of works has also asked
the solicitor to investigate demands of
property ow ners relative to drainage.
1t is claimed that tho city has so
drained portion of town near Wor-
tens addition that the water after
rain is backed mp on private property,
and Mr.. Banner, near by, claims the
same thing. The question comes up
relative to Mechaniosburg. The nat
ural drainage has been near the line
that separates city and county and
there is complaint about the waters
being diverted. One set Of people
claim that If the city does not change
the drainage back to its natural course
they will sue for damages. and others
claim that II il does. they will sue
Both Messrs. Banner and Worten also
threaten to sue. and the board desires
to know the extent Of the oity's
liability.
The board last night decided to
move the city's garbage dump to the
foot of Clay street. instead of having
it at the foot of Monroe street. a. at
present. The board also issued orders
to stop the pernicious practice OF
