The street massacres in Russia are
horrible, but considering recent hap
penings in Chicago. we cannot afford
to be too severe in our criticisms.
One of the main differences in the RI
OTIS in Russia and the riots in Chicago
is that in Russia 1, is usually the RI
oters who get hurt, and in Chicago
the innocent bystanders. or people
who are trying to attend to their own
business and abide by the law.

THERE is no franchise that can be
asked at the hands of our city council
that will not meet opposition from
somebody somewhere, simply because
every one cannot be satisfied, and be-
cause often men are actusted by per-
sonal motives. The HERALD believes
that in it's wisdom, the present city
council will do what it considers best
in all matters that come before it.

ALDERMAN MANLY is the "Dan
Patch" OF the city council. Not that he
is so very swift, but because he is a
record-breaker. But he is swift, too,
when he gets into the running. Last
night he came near getting an ordi-
nance voted on four times before they
could stop him. But his record break
ing runs in the direction OF coming
new expressions and doing new and
unexpected things. Last night he
designated proposed ordinance with
a name that brought down the house.

PALESTINE, TEXAS, NOVEMBER ID, 1905.
HANDLED 1T GINcERLY.

1t was quite noticeable that
when Alderman Caldwell brought
up the question of inadequate
water pressure for fire protection
at the council last night, that
some of the lighting aldermen"
took hold of the matter rather
gingerly. This is a most impor-
tant question. Five thousands of
dollars of the peoples money IS
being dumped into the water
works till every year for fire pro-
lection, and in addition to this
the railroad company is paying
5000 for the same purpose, and
yet the water company has fall
len down woefully on numbers of
occasions. 1t is a matter that
should be regulated. The city
should get what it pays for. As
the HERALD understands it the
water company, under its contract
with the city, is made liable to
forfeiture of its franchise in case
| it does not fulfill its contract.
The question was finally disposed
of last night by a resolution re-
quiring the fire chief to make a
written report to the council on
the water pressure had at each
fire.
So far so good. The council
should have gone further: it
should have at least required of
the company that it insall and
maintain a registering device in
the city secretary's office, as the
contract calls for, that an official
record of the pressure could be
had for every hour of every day
of the year, and if this register
showed that the water pressure
did not meet the demands of the
contract, then steps should be
taken to compel the water COM
pany to live up to its contract.
This is plain, but the water COM
pany is a public utility, and the
city cannot afford to trifle. The
HERALD is ready to take the same
stand against the telephone COM
pany, and has done so in the
past, the sewer company, the
electric light company, or any
other company serving the pub
lie that is falling down in its SER
vice. 1t can do nothing less, and
do its duty as a public journal.
The waterworks management are
our personal friends; against them
the paper has not thing in the
world, and it is just as ready to
give praise as to give condemna-
ton. Just give the people what
they pay for, and all will be salts.

IMPORTANT MATTERS.

The city council met in regular
session last night, and as matters
of unusual Importance were TO
come before the council, the
benches were we'll filled with In
terested spectators.
One of these very important
matters was the asking of a fran
chise for a street railway system.
The matter on motion was refer
red to a special committee, to be
appointed by the mayor, to report
at the next regular meeting. This
proceeding was proper, as an
ordinance should be framed guar
anteeing the building of such a
car system, and all interests should
be most carefully considered.
However, it has been the case in
a few instances, to employ this
method to bury a proposition,
from which burial it was never
resurrected again. The Herald
hopes this fate will not be meted
out to this enterprise, but that the
parties asking the franchise be
accorded a fair investigation, and
if they mean business, that the
franchise be granted.
Another important matter was
the proposed ordinance granting
the privilege to build, maintain
and operate a gas plant, for heat
ing, light and power. The COM
pany asking this franchise has
recently completed a plant at
Texarkana, and is now engaged
on work on plant at San Angelo,
and one or two other towns of
this state.
This matter was also referred
to a special committee, to be ap-
pointed by the mayor, and who
are to go to TeXarkana, if prac-
tical, and see the operations OF
the plant in that city there, and
make full investigation, and be
ready to report back to the coun-
ell at its next regular meeting.
This is an institution that Pales-
tine needs, and should have, and
the need is growing more and
more every day. Palestine is no
longer a village, and she should
be out hustling for those things
that 60 to make a city. The
town has reached that point in its
growth when it will have to roll
up its sleeves and go after things,
or she is going to lose out in the
race for supremacy. Some few
years ago the HERALD predicted
that somewhere in this section OF
East Texas is to be builded one
great city. The present genera
ton may not live to see it expand
to a very great greatness, but
nevertheless it will be at some
day not very far distant. Oul
children and grandchildren will
live to see it. Palestine is sc
fortunately situated that she car
easily be that one city of East
Texas. 1t devolves largely upor
the present generation to see thai
she is that city. 1t is absolutely
necessary to our present ant
future welfare that such EFFORT
are put forth as will guarantee u
the realization of this fact. Pres
ent effort, and future expansion
will increase our property values
will increase the comforts of liv
ing, will give to Palestine tn
right to stand at the head, vii
mark the town as town progress
i've, and will bring glory and homo

So TaNpaycrs May Know.

1t has always been a matter of WON
derment to the STAR why it was that
school boards and city councils never
publish anything to inform the public
as to how money is being expended.
The school and city taxes are the heav-
lest of all tax burdens and still the
people never know how their money is
spent. The county business is pub
pended is explained to the people
through the newspapers,and the cost is
comparatively nothing There is some
thing lacking in the laws to overlook
the important requirement OF publish
ing statements of expenditures. This
matter is being agitated at other places
according to the following newspaper
clippings:
"1'he Chief has always contended
that every board that has the handling
of the public's money should publish
an annual itemized statement for the
benefit of the taxpayers, who are entl-
tied to know how much money is used
and what it is used for. On the eN
penditure side the statement shoulc
give in detail the date of the warrant
in whose favor drawn, for what purp0s
and the amount. This would give sat
islaction to the public and relieve th
boards that handle the money OF a
unjust rumors and accusations. y
Ircquois Chief.
cone of the Charles Mix newspaper
publishes the detailed report of all en-
penditures by the city during the tisca
year just as the county commission
ers report their business. This shoul
be done in every city. Taxpayers al
extitled to know what becomes Of a
the money they put up. Especially ar
they concerned over the eXpenditur
of school money. Our school take
equal the combined county and Cit
taxes, and yet not figure in sight ;
to what is done with the funds.
some cities the councils order the pu
licatlon of the bills allowed and tt
school boards do the same. Ii the
isn't law providing for such public
ton there should be one."-kimbt
