LET A COMMISSION DECIDE.

The only prospect of unravelhng the water works

outcome may determine.
At the time the city gneer has the right to
fair and impartial hearing Of his explanation and defense
Wha he has to offer should be accepted coming from
official But neither party to the controversy
Twill insist that statements offered be taken auhorita

Smper than ascertanng whether the full complement OF
foumps have been installed. Whether these several items
lave been charged omitted from reports is merely
matter of examining department books.
The promised detailed statement of expenditures by
the city engineers Office may throw light the subject,
but is point in justice to hold this statement
subject to close scrutiny and comparison. The city en-
gineer have objection to that if he has the faith he
should have in figures submitted to the public official.
The signed statement of A. f. Gill, consulting
gineer issued yesterday merits consideration In sub
stance it is neither courteous conclusive 1t tells

Pratt's charge in any particular.
Mr.. Gill contents himself with declarations that Mr..

to the city engineers office Mr. Pratt alleged that this
report is based biased information supplied by the
gneer's office. He claims that items amounting in the
aggregate to than $4,000 of city money omit

Mr. Gill enters proof to offset this but resorts to cpl

rs more damaging than beneficial to the city engineer
contention 1t is not supposed that Mr.. Gill intended,

Work Of Dog Poisoner.

A number OF valuable dogs were sent
to dog heaven the past week by the
poison route, and it is quite evident
that the poison was put out by some one
purposely. Among the dogs killed
were Jim Coughlan' big New Found
land, Pete McDermotts hunting dog,
and Henry Spidell's dog Tige. OF these
three, Tige was probably the most high
ly priced Although he was not a
blooded dog. he was possessed of intel
ligence that was almost human and for
hunting there wasn't dog in the conn
ty that was better. He had been a
member of the Spidell household since
the days of his puphood, four years ago.
and his death caused mnch sorrow and
many tears in the Spidell home.
We can think of no more cowardly or
dastardly act than that of deliberately
placing poison where it can be secured
by dogs that are valuable and highly
priced by the owners. 1t nearly al.
ways happens that the valuable dogs
are the ones that get to the poison first
Inasmuch as there is law providing
that tax must be paid on dogs, il
seems to MS that dog poisoning ought
to be made crime. punishable by a
heavy fine.

HAS PAID lHt lAAtS
G.. R. & !. DROPS SUIT.
Contest in Michigan Courts Comes to
an end and Obligations of Road met
in FulI-Gets Check for 100000.
Palladium Special


Grand Rapids, April 20.-The G. r.
& l. railroad, which was one of those
contesting the payment of taxes in the
state of Michigan, has ceased the fight
and has paid up in full. Action on
this matter of paying delinquent
taxes in that state was taken by the
board of directors at their recent meet
ing in Pittsburg, and at the meeting
it was decided to acquiesce in the de-
mand of the state. The auditor gen.
eral at Lansing yesterday received a
check for 5000, 1890 from the G. r. &
l. covering it's tax for the present year,
and today got check for $52S,000 for
the 1905 taxes. The 1905 tax was sent
earlier, but the check was returne d,
as it did not include the fine. The
action of the G. r. & l. n this matter
indicates that the other roads intend
to come to time and that it will not
be necessary for the state to levy on
any engines or depots. The auditor
general is confident that the other
railroads will make payment of taxes
as soon as they can make it conven-
iently, and that there will be no con-
test over the penalty. 1t is surmised
that the task of raking together So
100000 or 100000 in cash is not al
together an easy one for the railroad
companies.
