Democratic Convention.

The democratic convention at
Wichita, turned out to be genuine
love feast, and ended up very salts
factorily to all. There was no
contention whatever. Some of the
leaders who were very enthusiastic
for Hearst wanted the delegates in
structed, but the more reasonable
delegates and leaders thought that
they had better go uninstructed. At
least they go that way. While the
convention expressed themselves
very favorable to Mr.. Hearst's de-
mocracy, they in no way asked the
Kansas delegates to stand for him.
1t is just as Claud Duval said, "We
are all Kansas City platform demo
Gratis, and after the St. Louis con-
vention we will all be St. Louis plat
form democrats. Any man who
does not agree with the above re-
mark is not real genuine democrat.
Mr.. Duval was chairman of the
convention and was opposed to in
struction. All the prominent demo-
Gratis of Kansas were present, and
it was very intelligent body Of
men. John H. Atwood was elected
committeeman and made a very fine
speech in thanking the convention
for the honor.

10 the Hon. Mayor lad Council,
Cit of Brunswick,
Gentlemen: l hive the homo to
make the followin annual REP 3rt:
Almost all my wor& has been con-
dned to the repair. cleansing and ad-
dition, IN one case. to iron pipins to
sewerage main. Plans, estima ties
and profile for a new drainage from
,he intersection of Il and H streets to
lee street, have been submitted and
! lied, and the same las been done for
Mansfield street from the river front
10 Union street. The addition of the
iron pipe between Richmond and the
pumping station has been of immense
| benefit tc the southern division of the
sewerage system.
A thorough cleansing and restora-
tino of the whole system has been in
constant progress. and am glad to be
Fable to say that never, since its con.
struction, has the Brunswick sewerage
oeen in as good condition as at the
present moment, and in addition, it
gratifes me to state to- you that I
/; do not believe there is one pound of
sewer gas in the whole system Mr..
, Johnson, a visiting engineer, reported
! to you "a remarkable absence of sewer
{ gas" and this fact, by many 9Cmed
! incredible, is due entirely to the
presence of an immense quantity of
! lowing water thus cleansing the sides
or the PIPES, and converting our great
est enemy in repairing, to q bene-
factor, When the work is completed.
! Much expense has been incurred in
removing deposits of sand in the
mains, and more especially in the
1000 feet Of extremely bad design
on Cochl an avenue between G. and
Mansfield streets.
! These sand deposits L find, form
continually. In a July report l point
gu OuC JuS CduSe. Inc mains are now
clean, hut they require the labor at
all times, of two men, and I respect
fully ask the city to take this re-
cuirement under consideration. At
times third man will be necessary.
In regard to the pumping station,
the hefrS of the whole system, it
must be kept in perfect order, and it
should De run really twenty-four
tours each day, and not, as
have mIfelf previously recommended
fMrtee1 hours. l do not know the
present condition of the boiler and
machinery, and I refer you to the re
Tort of the station engineer but
co know that absolute efficiency is re
CURED.
