England's Metropolis, Voting
Today, is on the Verge of
Bankruptcy.

London, March 2.-The hottest po-
litical struggle in the modern history
of London ends at the polls today in
the election of a new county council.
The issue is solely the question of the
further, ,muncipalization of local indus
tries. AT the present time the pro-
gressive socialists are in control of the
county council, where they have been
entrenched since 1889. They have late
ly sprung new enterprise, which con-
templates the purchase of nearly all
the existing electric lighting and power
undertakings, at cost of $120, 900, 900.
1t has been pointed out that most Of
these plants will be useless in great
centralized electrical works., entailing
an enormous initial loss, which, of
course, will fall really upon the tax
payers. Moreover, all electrical engi-
neers agree that the council is totally
unable to manage the contemplated
works to the best advantage, especial
ly since the industry has not yet passed
beyond the speculative stage.
London is already on the verge of
bankruptcy as the result of the ex-
travagances of the progressive social
list government. Under their control
the city's debt has increased from $35
a head to $50 head. Realization of
the critical condition of affairs has
finally aroused the taxpayers to ex-
traordinary efforts to turn the social
lists out at today's election. The latter,
however, are we'll entrenched and the
indications seem to favor a renewal of
their power.

HOTTEST POLITICAL STRUGGLE

HOT RECEPTION FOR TOURISTS.
Press to The Hveninr Times,

Monterey, Mexico, March 2.-The
city authorities and American. resi-

warm reception for a party of over 100
tourists from New York and Boston,
who are expected to reach here tomor-
row on their return trip to the, east.
On the occasion of a previous visit
of the tourists to Monterey several
weeks ago they committed numerous
indiscretions, and If these are repeat
ed the offenders will be apprehended
and punished. The hoodlums gathered
in the ancient cathedral while a fash
ionable wedding was in progress, took
snapshots of the bride and groom,
and before the ceremony was complet-
ed invaded the altar and photographed
the audience; the wares of several old
Mexican candy venders were ruthless
ly wrecked; the Casuno, an exclusive
private club, was invaded without in
vitation and several of the tourists
were caught in the act of carrying
away valuable articles as souvenirs.
The American residents have lodged a
formal complaint with the tourist man
ager.

GOVERNOR SEES SCHEME Bf
WHICH ne IS TO Be WHicKEb
Reduction Of Uniyersity's Share In
Appropriation Said to Have Been
Aimed Directly at the Executive
Cashel Pharmacy Measure Amended
So as to Destroy Its Merits.
ny George Davi..

Bismarck, N. D., March 2.-Gover-
nor Burke will probably veto the one
mill tax bill on the grounds of un-
constitutionality. This will leave the
old law as it is and make the distri-
button among the several institutions
the same as two years ago. The pro-
bable reason is that he desires to help
the deaf and dumb school at his own
town, but there is little if any dissat-
isfaction from that school. Another
reason is the claim that the passage
Of the bill with the reduction in the
university's share was aimed direct
ly at the governor, because of the
large vote received by him in Grand
Forks county. This idea is substan-
tiated by Sorley's statement in the
house that the university was being
punished probably fer the same rea-
son. Just how the house, which is
overwhelmingly insurgent, could pun
ish that county for going insurgent
has not been pointed out. The con-
stitution fixes the tax limit at four
mills and since the passage of the
one mill tax law several years ago,
the rate has exceeded that amount.
The house indefinitely postponed the
game bill prepared by the joint COM
mittees on game and fish and judici-
ary. This means that all game laws
are dead for the session.
Fargo has lobby here in the inter-
ests of the location of the state fair
permanently at that place.

has SO amended the Cashel pharmacy
bill that the merits are destroyed.

OF q royal battle between the two
great parties as it witnessed there to-
day over the ship subsidy bill. The
bill was passed, but not until after it
had been once defeated, and this fact
in itself shows how close the align
ment was when the first vote disclosed
majority against the measure.
Democrats and their republican allies
made the house ring with their
cheers. There were several roll calls
before the final favorable result was
secured. The vote on the Littauer
substitute was defeated on the first
vote by 154 to 161.

done by the republican leaders during
the height of the battle was made
