CITY COUNCIL WANTS
CITY FRIENDS CHOSEN
Urges the Citizens of Duluth
to Vote for Candidates
Friendly to City
Is Determined to Exert Every
Effort to Build Municipal
Lighting Plant

The city Council has taken tho ''bull
by the horns," and will urge the cleo
! ton Of only those who plegde them
selves to support legislation which
will give Duluth the right to either
build or purchase an electric lighting
| plant.
| This departure on the part Of the
Council Is new, but in indicates the
determination of those Interested in
local issues in securing the election to
the legislature OF men who will be
| friends to- the city,
! The resolution which was introduced
by Alderman Wilson was unanimously
| adopted, and is as follows:
! Whereas. there is q difference Of
| opinion among competent attorneys as
to whether the city has authority to
issue bonds to acquire by purchase,
condemnation or to construct a plant
or plants for furnishing to the city
and It's Inhabitants electric light and
| power,
And whereas as preliminary to pro-
ceed1ng to acquire such a plant or
plants 1T Is necessary under the charter
TO have en- estimate made by en- expert
engineer which estimate will cost the
| city from $4,000 to $4,000.
And whereas 1t Is certain that the
question OF authority OF the city to
| acquire such a plant will promptly be
tested In the courts when the city
| proceeds to acquire such plant.
And whereas there will be session
| or the legislature In January 1907, for
| which candidates are now seeking
nomination.
And whereas the city would be put
70 great expense and would sustain
an actual loss Of more than $4,000 in
case the courts should hold that the
city does not have authority to acquire
an electric plant, and issue bonds to
pay therefor.
Therefore be 1t resolved that this
council defer taking further steps to
secure municipal electric plant until
the legislature convenes at it's next
session and that in the meantime every
honorable effort be used to secure the
| nomination and election OF candidates
for the legislature whose records and
| pledges are known to be unqualifledly
| IN favor Of securing all additional
| legislation which may be suggested as
necessary or advisable from the city's
side Of the controversy in order to put
beyond all question the right and
| authority Of the city to acquire num-
icipal electric plant and Issue bonds
therefor, after such proposition has
been submitted to vote Of the
! people,

LONDON, Aug. 9O-DissentIons be-

labor members which were apparent
throughout the entire session of parlia-
ment have eliminated in an open
quarrel owing to the result of the
Cockermouth elections.
Liberal papers openly accuse the So

ingratitude. This great split was Of
ficially pronounced by the under secre-
tary for the colonies, who, although
he occupies a minor position in the
government, speaks in public with the
authority Of the minister Of the crown,
He declared in his speech at VIM
borne that no great party would put
up with such treatment as the liberals
had received from the labor party at
Cockermouth.

ADJUSTMENTS.
At THE METROPOLITAN,

If one cares to drive dull care away
and have long, hearty laugh, a visit
to The Metropolitan. where Edmond
Hayes and the Jolly Girls" In Mr..
Hayes evergreen mirth- provoking
music comedy "A Wise Guy is booked
for an engagement beginning next
Sunday, 2nd, one week. will not be
amiss. Mr.. Hayes Is without doubt
one Of the most talented and popular
comedians and character actors before
the public. AS an impersonator of the
happ- -go-lucky piano mover, who tries
to shine in an atmosphere entirely
beyond his social sphere. he is side
splitting in the extreme. Mr.. Hayes
has an excellent vehicle in A Wise
Guy" to display his unique talents. The
comedy which is in two acts and
which is from the pen Of George M.
Cohan. has been elaborated by Miss
Adele Palmer. Mr.. Hayes leading lady.
Miss Adele Palmer besides being ex-
ceptionally pretty and olaver is a great
help to the star and contributes no
little in making this rather engrossing
entertainment one of the best on the
boards today. Mr.. Hayes company
this season is exceptionally strong, in
cluding2 a chorus Of twenty beautiful
and shapely young women, who sing,
dance, and wear magnificent costumes
most pleasingly. The music OF the
comedy is of the tuneful jingling,
catchy order and the humor both
wholesome and original. The scenery
and stage settings are all new, ap-
propriate and lavish and all told the
production can bear muster with any
entertainment on the circuit. During
the action Of the comedy, the following
novel specialtles will be introduced: {:
Charles Duncan, an English comedian
and singer. who stands alone in his
particular kind OF work; the Prentice
Troupe OF acrobats, four in number,
who brave life and limb in their ef-
forts to please; the De-Kabry Sisters,
who dance after the fashion OF the
real clog experts in the old halcyon
minstrel days, and last but not least
Miss Maggie Newell, a pretty and
dashing soubrette. Mr.. Hayes is a
whole show In himself and must be
seen to be appreciated. The usual
matinees will be given on Sunday.
Thursday and Saturday, and a special
Labor Day matinee on Monday. The
usual Tuesday matinee will be omitted
next week.
