SEWER WORK
PROGRESSING
Satisfactory Progress is Now
Being Made by Con
tractor

Satisfactory progress is now being
made by Contractor Storrie in the
sewer work. Large forces of men are
employed in various Sections of the
city making excavations and placing
the pipe, and as the forces are now
well organized fast and good work is
being accomplished, Notwithstanding
the fact that the lower section of the
city the soil is of such a nature that
fast work cannot be done except with
large forces of men. r..
Yesterday the forces were increased
by additional men, and in every sec
ton of the city there are piles of pipe
showing where the men are at work
Notwithstanding the fact that the
council has been urged to do so no
steps have so far been taken to have
the property owners connect with the
sewer pipes as they are placed. BY
having the connections made now il
will not only save unnecessary cost but
will also prevent the streets from be-
ing torn up again. Under the pTOpI-
SionS of the ordinance all ahutting
property owners will be compelled to
make connections with the sewers and
by doing so now they can save much
expense.

Tawney of Minnesota, the orator of
the day, spoke in part as follows:
The One Great Problem.
The battle of Gettysburg, like
those of Marston Moor and Runne-
mede and Bunker Hill, was fought to
determine the proper bounds of poll
teal and civil liberty. 1t was fought
to settle a purely personal issue.
There is but one great problem in poll
tics, and that the adjustment of the
central power of the state or nation
to the local self-government of the
people.
In Past Ten Years.
The special agent and inspection
service through which federal super
vision and control over the domestic
affairs of the people is exercised,
shows an enormous increase in the
past ten years. The number of men
employed in the service in 1907 is one
hundred and eighty times greater than
in 1896. and the cost has increased
over seven hundred per cent in ten
years This too is the tendency of the
times. the growth of which during the
last decade can be cOmprehended only
by careful analysis of federal leg
islation and the aggregate annual eX-
penditures of the federal government
