ny, Will Mean Severance of
Friendly Relations
INeLEDuE PRESENTS FIGURES
Gives Council Idea Of What tho County
Really Owes to tho City, Providing
County Settled for Fees chargeable
by Mayor and PoIice-says Nothing
in Poll Tax Claim.

If the county board of supervisors
continues to maintain the same high
and lofty bearing as he claims they
have in the past, Mayor o. l.. Ingledue
told the council Wednesday night that
there would be "some thing doing" The
mayor presented some figures to the
council, showing just how much he
considers the county would be indebted
to the city under the old method Of as
sessing fees to the county. The mayor
claims an indebtedness on the part Of
the county during his twenty one
months Of Office OF over $4,000.
Chairman Devine, Of the judiciary
committee, reported on an interview
with Chairman JONES' of the board, but
said that no conclusion had been ar
rived at. He asked for more time, that
the board as a whole might be met
with. Mr.. Sieg, who had also talked
the county willing to do the fair thing
in the detention hospital expenditure.
Mayor Ingledue thinks that 1t is high
time something fair was being done by
the board. His figures to the council
showed that during the twenty-one
months OF his Office board OF city pris-
oners had amounted to $621.07, and
that Isl yards Of crushed stone had
been used by the city, representing a
value of $351.25. or a total OF $972.32
tfat the city might be indebted to the
county. During this same period, how
ever, he was entitled to $4,000 in sal
airy as Justice OF the peace. and that
his officers fees aggregated $1,000, or
total Of $500. This leaves over ST.
600 in favor of the city.
The mayor said that II the super
visors had an old bill against the city
for board or stone, 1t should have COL
lected 1t long ago, and not bring it up
now. He wasn't responsible for bills
incurred before he went into Office. AS
fas as the costs for poll tax cases. re-
ferred TO by Supervisor Jones in re-
cent public communication. the mayor
quoted City Solicitor Burritt to the ef-
feet that there was not case on rec
ord where the costs were assessed to
the city. II the defendant in poll tax
suit demands that the costs be retaxed
to the city, such may be done. but no
one, as far as the solicitor can find, has
ever made such demand.

ELECTIONS ARE EXPENSIVE.
Special Interurban Election Will Cost
COMPANY About 5000.

Company About $500.
At the adjourned meeting of the city
council, Wednesday night, the bills IN
Cured by the recent special interurban
election were ordered allowed. While
this is necessary, according to law, the
city is reimbursed for all expense by
the company, bond having been FUR
nished for that purpose. The amount
of the bill allowed by the council was
$36250 but exclusive of this amount
is all the printing, which will probably
bring the total to be met by the COM
pany to- $500 or over. Sieg was ex-
cused from voting because Of his pre-
vious stand on compensation 'for cleo
ton officials. Sieg maintains that
election boards should receive 25 cents
an hour instead of SIS per day The
biggest item of expense incurred as q
result Of the election was 5000 for reg
istration boards. The election boards
cost $125, and the voting place rents
bring the amount allowed up to
$362.50.

a Great Light.

ST. Paul Dispatch: Melville e. In
gals. chairman of the directors of
the Big Four, has kindled light
that should dispel the darkness in
the minds of railway managers and
magnates. He has declared the prim-
ary truth that they are not owners
but trustees of the great iron high
ways of the land. On that postulate
he has proved the theorem that law
should regulate completely the deal
ings of railways with the people and
with each other. That demonstrated
it follows as corollary that the
agency of the law, the interstate COM
merce commission, should have power
adequate to fulfill it's function. Such
power comprehends the control of
rates, that equity may be done. Last
ly, it means that not foot of railway
track may be built, not one share OF
stock issued and not dollar of bond
ed debt incurred except under the
supervision and with the permission
of the interstate commerce board.

triumph unattainable in this vast ex-

The HOmeStalxe Disaster.

Only those who are familiar with
conditions in the city of Lead, the
Black Hills metropolis, can fully real
ize the magnitude of the disaster that
has befallen that hustling town of
about 5000 people. The great Home
stake gold mine. one of the largest in
the world has been turning low grade
ore into bright gold bars for the past
30 years is now silent and the great
openings in the gold bearing noun
tain on the top Of which is Lead, is
being filled with water to quench the
subterranean fires which threaten to
destroy everything in those great
shafts and levels out Of which $25, 900
600 in dividends alone has been take n
by improved machinery and the in
genuity Of man.
The magnificent machinery on both
sides of the gulch is idle and the
$500 man who worked day and night,
in s hour shifts seven days in the
week, are laid off-discharged until
the fires are drowned out and the
water in turn pumped from the streets
of that underground city, for it a ver-
liable city underground where that
small army of men drilled and blasted
the ore that kept the great stamp
mills pounding away.
What will become of the Homestake
army?
What will become of the vast buSi-
ness interests that were sustained al
most entirely by the $500 men who
dug gold ore requiring something like
$75, 900 to meet the weekly pay roll.
1t is terrible calamity to the en-
tire northern hills because every in
dustry in Lawrence and some of the
adjoining counties will be effected by
this sudden stop in the production OF
new wealth The 5000 souls in Lead
were largely supported by the Home
stake wealth and the products of the
gulch farm patches are dependent
upon Lead and Deadwood for a mark
ct and nearly two-thirds of that mark
ct is now suspended.
1t will be fully six months before
the Homestake can be flooded, pump
ed out and made ready for business
again and in the meantime the people
of that city will face a crisis which
we hope they will be able to meet
successfully.

This doctrine is not new, but

This doctrine is not new, but is
part of the Rooseveltian policy and
has become the creed of the people.
Professed openly by one of the great
heads of railroading it's truth becomes
more convincingly evident and it's ul-
innate triumph nearer to realization.
Bold and brave as is ingalls, utter
ance it is yet tempered to the hearts
and understandings of his hearers.
He has followed the example of the
apostle when he wrote to the Corin-
thians:
"And /. brethen, could not spreak
unto you as unto spiritual, but as un-
to carnal, even as unto babes in
Christ. I-haye fed you with milk and
not with meat, for hitherto ye were
not able to bear it, neither yet now
are ye able"
That is why he speaks of rebating
and allied forms of that evil as having
been practiced 10y railroad ratemakers
mainly for the purpose Of securing
competitive business, and but little
for the sake Of building up monopol-
les. That is the reason he ignores
the partnership between railroad
managers and trusts and the use OF
railroad power in many ways to foster
the private business interests of those
holding that power and crush their
rivals. That is why he does not men
tion the furnishing of cars to some
and withholding their rights from
others. For he knows Of all those
things.
He would safeguard the public
against watering Of stock and infla-
tiop of other securities but he passes
over the magnitude of such evils.
Yet let US be thankful for the
measure of truth that we have receiv-
ed and condemn not the indequacy of
the story but praise the excellence of
that part which is told.

tiveneSs for what las been done in
the past. In John Morley's brilliant
sketch of Burke he lays especial stress
upon the fact that Burke more than
almost any other thinker or politician
of his time realized the profound les
son that in politics we are concerned
not with barren rights but with dut-
les: not with abstract truth. but with
practical morality. He especially eu-
lOgiZes the way in which in his efforts
for economic reform Burke combined
unShakable resolution in pressing the
reform with profound temperatures
of spirit which made him, while bent
on the extirpation of the evil system
refuse to cherish an unreaSoning and
vindictive i'll will toward the men
who had benefited by it. Said Burke:
If | cannot reform with equity,
will not reform at ALL There
is state to preserve as well as a
state to REFORM
