SUTTON AGAIN.
Has More to Say in Criticism Of coun
Gil as Reply to Webster.

Gil as Reply to Webster.
Editor Times Republican:
Councilman Webster sees At to chal-
lenpe my former article. as being
prompted by personal or political mo-
tiyes rather than for the public good.
In answer to inquiries, which am in
formed are being made. as to my prob
able candidacy for office, wish to say
that I am not candidate for mayor,
councilman, city solicitor or any other
office and will not be under any cir
cumstances whatever. / am not al
filiated, either socially, politically or
commercially, with any Of the candi-
dates, either prospective or announc-
ed now before the people. feel that
1t is necessary for the public to take
action to prevent further abuse OF au-
ehority by our public servants. To that
end, am willing, and intend, to give
portion Of my time. as any other prl-
waite citizen SO, long as there is pop
ular call or demand for it.
As stated in my article, the sewage
disposal plant Is q matter OF the past.
However, it is my opinion that no res
olutions Of self-condemnation passed
by the old council, or pleas of having
saved the tail instead of the hide"
will counteract the effect OF the pill
now that it is swallowed, or sweeten
the aroma which follows in the wake
OF those who participated in Its COM
position.
AS regards the sidewalk business,
Councilman Webster says Il am not
Offering, however. excuses for the num-
Der and necessity Of walks put in. This
is largely due, If mistakes have been
made, to the members of each ward to
whom is left this question" [ am very
thankful for so frank confession from
such a source. and submit, as my
opinion, that excuses are in order.
In regard to the question Of paving,
Mr.. Webster assumes the attitude OF
having, as nearly as possible, served
the people according to their wishes.
He is certainly grossly ignorant of the
condition of the public mind on this
point, or else is endeavoring to get
too much comfort from a shadow. In
view Of the remarkable assurance
have received, there can be but little
question but what my views and those
of a very large majority of our people
coincide exactly. Therefore, the ques-
the wishes of the people in the paving
matter savors too much Of the same
audacity referred to in connection with
the Second avenue paving to "Fimmy's
sand bank and the woven wire fence
around the unused portion Of the grave
yard" to entitle it to discussion.
Councilman Webster says that the
council have been lever watchful" to
see that contractors have complied
with their contract" and cites North
Second avenue and Sonth First avenue
as proof They certainly could not
afford to pass that portion Of the
North Second avenue paving referred
to without some action, inasmuch as
the defects We're not hidden from
view, but were open to the eye.
Heaven only knows to what extent the
public might have been driven mad no.

BOOZE" BUSINESS TO RESUME.
Liquor Houses Will Take Advantage Of
Sunre,o> Court Decision

Supreme Court Decision.
According to expressmen 1t will
probably be but comparatively short
time when wholesale liquor houses will
again have agents all over the state
taking orders for liquors to be shipped
in the original package to persons in
those towns where there are no sa-
looms This is owing to the recent de-
cision OF the United States supreme
court, which reversed the decision OF
the Iowa supreme court in the Tama
county case against the Adams FIX
press Company, which had to do with
the seizure and destruction of liquor in
original package. Officials Of the
Adams Express Company have mailed
to their agents circular letters telling
of the decision, and authorizing them
to accept such shipments. Years ago
such shipments were frequent, altho
very few, If any. were made to this
city.

There was small sized rush, which

the association to cash all pay checks
issued to the employees Of the Central.
Last month all who called for the
money on their checks were accommo-

suspended after almost $4,000 had beer
paid out on account of lack Of cash.
Secretary Fellingham expected to do
more business Saturday than he did
the previous month, and was prepar-
ed, but as 1t later developed, not suffi-
GENTLY so to meet the demand.
