PRESIDENT OF HOLIDAY COM
PANY DISCUSSES PROPOSED
ISSUE OF CITY BONDS
NEXT MONTH.
Writer Opposes Issue as Being Un-
necessary and Advocates Present
System of Each Property owner
Paying Proportionately for Cost of
Main Which Runs Past His Prem
ises-Matter of Interest.

To the Editor of The Republican.
Now hat an election has been called
for the citizens of Laramie to pass up
on the question of issuing $4,000 in
city bonds without any stated limit to
the rate of interest such bonds shall
bear), it seems particularly pertinent
that each owner of property in the city
and each householder in the city should
consider how such proposed i~nstalla-
ton of an entirely new system Of later
ais, and a belt line pipe, together with
the burden of additional indebtedness,
would affect the general welfare.
Those who have paid for the street
laterals on such streets where the pres
'ent laterals are reasonably sufficient,
(f the Grand avenue main can be kept
filed, should consider whether it
would be just, or a proper exercise of
authority, to be compelled to abandon
the present system of each lot owner
paying his part of the cost of the street
lateral that may be laid past his lot and
forever after be free from a household
water tax.

Washington, D. c., March 23.-The
expected fight in the senate over con
ferees on the statehood bill failed to
m~aterialize today. Senator Foraker
announced the withdrawal of his mo
ton that the senate appoint the con-
~ferees, instead of leaving their selec-
ton to the chairman of the committee
having the bill in charge. This de-
cision was the result of an agreement
with Senator Beverage. In withdraw
ing the motionForaker stated that the
conferees were pledged to represent
the dominant element in the senate
which eliminated Arizona and New
Mexico from the statehood bill, in
stead of representing the committee
on territories, which wanted two states
from the four territories. Without OBJ
lection, Senators Beveridge, Dilling.
ham and Patterson were named as con-
ferees.

err The name of the new species is

new to science and has just been class,
flied and described by DR.. S. w. Willis
ton of the University of Chicago. The

Has Local Bearinu,

The DeForest company had repre-
sentatives in this city several weeks
ago, selling stock and arranging to
open an Office here for the transaction
of business. The station was to have
been erected at the university, on the
campus, to consist of a huge pole and
a station at the foot of the pole, with
telephone wires to the downtown Of,
flee. How much of the stock of the
company was sold here cannot be told.
The man in charge went away declar,
ing that Laramie could have been left
off the line, intimating that the people
of the city did not take kindly to his
plans. 1t is now considered likely that
the Laramie station will not be
erected.
