Unanimously hy the Council to Bond
The CITY.
$40,O0O.O0 FOR TWENTY YEARS
The Members Of the Council Realize the
Necessity Of Paying the Debts of the
City, and to Place it on a
Business Basis,

Alta meeting of the city coun-,
Gil held Tuesday evening the
matter Of bonding the city for
purpose of liquidating the IN
debtedness. came up for final
passage. The members Of that
body were unanimous in the be.
lief that all debts should be paid
and that the city should be
/ placed upon solid business
i foundation AS to the best way
to accomplish this there was
some difference of opinion, some
claiming that it would be best to
arrange with the holders of the
judgments for an agreement
to make partial payments on
them until all shall have been
paid. Others felt that the issue
of bonds should be made for ten
years instead of twenty. The
mem bers however realized that
something had to be done, and
when the ordinance was out
upon its final passage, under
suspension Of tho rules, the roll
call revealed the fact that ali
mem bers favored the bond issue
as originally outlined.
The committee appointed to
confer with the lighting com
pany asked for an extention of
time which was granted.
F. T.. Yates, of the lighting
company, appeared before the
council and presented written
proposition asking that the
matter of the purchase of the
plant or the fixing of the rate to
be paid for lights be left to three
arDltfaJOfS, the company to
name one. the city one and the
two thus appointed to name the
third. The company he said
would agree to sell or would
agree to furnish lights at the
figures fixed BY the arbitrators.
It is understood that the com
pany want S35, 900 for the plant
OF will agree to enter into new
contract for furnishing lights
for 500 per year for each light,
this proposition to hold good
even though no contract be made,
and can be terminated at any
time at the option of the council.
Some difference Of opinion
exists between the council and
the company as to the interpre-
tation Of the resolution passed
by the council week ago. The
lighting company claims that the
resolution is really a notice for
them to shut off the lights at the
respiration of the contract on
Oct. 23rd, while the council hold
that the resolution simply meant
that no contract would be ent-
cred into at the expiration of the
old one, at the paesent rate, but
that it the company continued to
furnish light the city would pay
for it at the old rate until such
time as a new price could be
agreed upon.
The old contract expires on the
23rd Of this month. What the
council and the city will agree
upon remains to be seen. The
council will meet again October
18th, at which time some def mite
action will undou btedly be decid
led upon.

Feeding Alfalfa to Horses.

It seems to be the general opin- ion that alfalfa hay is not a good horse feed, and especially for horses on the road or for fas. work. Now 1 would like to cor rect this. as alfalfa is too good a feed to be condemned for any purpose, says I. D. O'Donnell. The fact IS, nearly everyone who feeds horses feeds them too much hay. The same would apply to all kinds of hay. If you give horse about what alfalfa he should have, say twelve to if teen pounds per day for horses of 1000 pounds and fair grain ration, you will find he will travel just as far and just as fast as with other kinds of hay and be in better condition.
 But if you allow your horse to eat thirty or forty pounds per day, which they will of alfalfa if you give it to them, you are sure to have a horse that is short winded and sloppy. One of the famous trotting horses on the eastern turf with a record below } 03 is fed alfalfa as his only hay.
 A good ration for the horse of any kind of feed is about one pound of grain and about one and a half pounds of hay to each one hundred pounds of horse. And this would apply to alfalfa. In fact the horse should do bet ter on alfalfa than with other hays, and with less grain.
 This might be the opportune time to say that the majority of farmers feed too much hay of all kinds to their horses. In fact the horse barn, to my notion, is where one of the greatest wastes of the farm can be found. HOrS- es would travel better, stand more work and be healthier if fed less hay. Most farmers give them all they can eat and aim to have them waste enough to make their bedding, when they have plenty of good straw going to waste on the farm.-Orchard and Farm.

D. 1905, at the hour of ten o'clock a. m. of said day, at the court room of said Court, at the court house in the city of Yuma, Yuma county, Territory of Arizona, to show cause why an order should rot be granted to said administrator to sell so much of the said real estate as shall be necessary, and that copy of this order be published four successive weeks in the Arizona Sentinel, a newspaper printed and published in the said coun- ty of Yuma.

FinIand's Emancipation.

It behooves the civilized world to see that never again shall an enlightened, generous and gen. tie people like the Films be ground under the heel of an overpowering, sodden autocracy like Russia. Sad, even sadder than the downfall of Poland, has been the subjugation of Finland by Russia; and all the civilized world must rejoice in what ap- pears to be Finland's emancipa- tion. There is no country in the world that more deserves to be free, for in no country is there a higher degree of education, mor- ality and we'll being. The aver age intelligence in that country is very high, there being less than one per cent of illiterates; and there are very few criminals. The people are sober, thrifty, we'll do, and there are fewer paupers than in any other Euro pean country. In these respects and in all that pertains to civili- zation, morality and progress, Finland was in marked contrast with the powerful despotism that sat upon her, crushing life and hope and aspiration.

Between 1868 and 1881 was the fatal period, a disastrous thir- teen years for the buffalo, when they were slaughtered indiscrim- inately for thelr hides. In Kan sas alone between the years named $2, ,500,000 were paid out for their bones gathered on the prairies to be used by the carbon works of the country, principally in St. Louis. It required about 1000 carcasSeS to make a ton of bones, and as the price was $8 8 ton, the enormous sum paid rep resented the skeletons of over 31 ,O0O, ,000 buffaloes.

'saVED plY LIFE .

That's what a prominent ruggist said of Scott's Emulsion a short time ago. As a rule we don't use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in Connec- ton with Scott's Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional note. From infancy to old age Scott's Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying i'm proper and weak develop ment, restoring lost flesh and vitality, and repairing waste. The act ion of Scott's Emulsion is no more of a secret than the composition of the Emul- sion itself. What it does it does through nourish- lnent-the kind of nourish- ment that cannot be ob- ta1ned in ordinary food. No system is too weak or delicate to retain SCott's Emulsion and gather good from 1t.

WHITE is CHAIRMAN
NAMED AT = HE WHITE suLPHuR
CONFERENCE.-THE oReANI-
zATIoN.


WEIGH. w! Va, July 31.-welch,
the county seat of Mcdowell, was
never more prosperous than at this
time. Politics usually cuts very little
ice here except during campaign
times. The White Sulphur conference,
however, in selecting our townsman.
Senator w. w. Whyte, as chairman
OF the committee to take charge of
the organizations throughout the State
with view OF controlling nomina-
tons for the House and Senate has
caused no little amount OF comment.
Mr.. Whyte has been for some time
the recognized leader of the Repub-
lican party in this end of the State,
chairman of the county committee,
member Of the State committee and
by Chairman Nortbcott appointed a
member Of the State executive com
mittee. AS given out here this White
Sulphur committee is w. w. Whyte,
chairman: s. B. Montgomery, secre.
tary; ]. w. Burchinal, T. P. Hill, Geo.
Mcintosh and G. F. Teter.
This committee Is to have charge
Of the entire State by Congressional
districts with the power to select o
leader for each Senatorial district
and each county. Some look on this
move with suspicion, while others
favor it because of the fact that coal
lands in this section worth two hum
dred dollars per acre have been under
the old law assessed at three dollars
per acre will have to pay under the
new tax laws their Just share of taxes.
Therefore, as this movement is I'M
derstood to be for the purpose of Sc
lecting a legislature that will repeal
the new tax laws there are those here
who favor 1t, but there are others
who take different view, and will
contest the ground against any efforts
to supplant the regular party organi.
cation.
