New York, April 21.-The following
/ address was adopted at the annual
meeting of the Associated Press to-
day: Representatives of TIA daily
newspapers gathered at the annual
meeting of the Associated Press res
pectfully ask the President and con-
gress to grant immediate relief from
the eXactionS of the combinations of
paper makers. In September, 1907.
and again in November, 1907, the at
ed to the excessive prices then de-
manded by the paper combinations.
Immediately upon the assembling of
congress twenty or more bills aiming
to correct those conditions went to
the ways and means committee. Per
slstent efforts to obtain a hearing
have been refused. Dilatory tactics
have been employed to prolong the
present conditions and to carry over
to another congress every proposition
designed for relief. All the newspa-
pers here represented protest against
delay. Attention is also directed to
false reports on news print paper
prices which were recently furnished
congress by the director of the cen
sus bureau. The newspapers here rep
resented use approximately eighty
per cent of the news print paper con-
sumed in the United States We de-
nounce the quotation submitted to
Of credence. Reiteration of the accu-
racy of these figures of the director
after the error had been called to
public attention tends to shake the
public confidence and respect for the
statistics thus compiled on other sub
iects as well as paper

The old city council held it's last
meeting last night. receiving reports
financial and otherwise and cleaning
I'D it's business as nearly as possible.
Their adjournment, sine die, was fol
lowed by the swearing in of the new
mayor ald councilmen and short
session In which Mayor Richardson
outlined some phases of his policy
and the new body organized for work.
The first meeting was called to or
der by Mayor ]. w. Stockard, with
Co1ncilmen, WyHys, Wfseley, Bell,
johnson, Robinson. Whiteman, Church
and Kinsf1ger in their seats. After
the reading Of the minutes, the reg
uiar order was taken up.
The finance committee requested
that all bills having their o. K. be
sanctioued or o. KID by the council
as a whole before turning tnem over
10 the new council. This was done
with an amendment that the city
clerk receive $25 additional pay for
the last two months of his term on
account of the increased work in as
sisting the water works commission
There was nothing to report from
the streets and alleys, sidewalks and
bridges and sanitary committees. The
water and lights committees report
ed several street ligats out of COM
mission during the past month
The special ditch committee filed
its report with recommendations,
which, in substance, was as follows;
The city's half of the total expense
IA cementing the bitches as ordered
by the board Of arbitration Is
$9,522.5s. OF that amount 1887 is to
be held back until the work of COM
pleting the cementing is done after
the close Of the irrigation season
next tall. The committee recommend
ed the payment of the balance of the
city's part, except the 1887. as soon
rs the funds are available. Credited
to the city on the total is $4,000,
which has already been paid by the
city. The work yet to be done is the
covering OF the cemented ditch in
South Pecos. also covering the ditch
across South Grand and Pecos ave-
nues. This was neglected in the first
contract, but must be done for public
sneety. The new mayor was instruct
ed by vote 10 enter into contract with
Rarie & Mussenden for this additional
work. they having agreed to do 1t for
1887, the work 10 be done as soon as

ILLINOIS TOWNS VOTING
ON LOCAL OPTION.

st. Louis, Mo, April 21.-Forty
Illinois cities and towns, a majority
Of them in the southern portion of
the state, are voting today on local
option, and the officials of the Anti
Saloon League are hopeful of adding
five counties, Morgan, Scott, Perry,
Calhoun and Pulaski, to the list al
ready totally dry. The battle in Cairo,
which has 65 saloons, has been in
tensely bitter. On the first of the year
the saloon men agreed to- close their
places of business on Sundays and
expect this action to have some effect
upon the result today.

Woolvertoas grew out of the fact
that they returned to the school when
expelled for what they considered in
sufficient cause.

In Street Fund, 1915 ss,694.s4
FRED. J. BECK,
City Clerk.

City Clerk
| This report shows balance on
hand of $3,694.94. OF this amount
however, the sums in the general and
street funds, total of $739.S1, are
the only ones available for the pay
ment of general expenses. The bill;
filed against the city up to April 20
amounted to s6,O52.9S. The cost to
the city of cementilg the bitches a.
mouhted to $9,522.59. OF this amount
the city yet owes $5,O22.59. The fixed
expenses of conducting the affairs of
the city for the month of April are
estimated to be $1123.5O. After May
to $1188.50 per month making the to-
tai fixed expenses for April, May and
June amount to $3500.5O. In other
words the city will have bills to pay
on July 1, to the amount, at least,
of $14,576.O7. This amount will un-
doubtedly be considerably increased
as there will necessarily be bills 9TH
er than those considered in the fixed
expenses as given above. The small
balance in the ditch fund is too min
ute to be considered
To Offset this Indebtedness of $14,-
576.07, the city will have the availa-
BILE balance now on hand of $739.S1
This leaves the city running behind
to the tune of s13,S3626 However,
the cementing of the bitches may be
considered by some as an indebted
ness that should not be taken from
the general revenues of the city.
The $4,000 bond issue to pay for
this work will probably be available
by July 1. Deducting this amount
from the estimated Indebtedness of
the city on July 1, we have remain
ing an Indebtedness of s3,s3626.
July 1 is the beginning of a new
quarter and the city will receiver
from saloon licenses the sum of So
600 and from the general taxes an
amount of somewhere in the neigh
borhood of 5000, or a total of So 600
Applying this to the payment of the
back indebtedness, the city would
have on hand something like $4,000
for the payment of the expenses of
the ensuing quarter.
The above estimate cannot, how
ever, be realized as it is based on the
supposition that there will be no bills
contracted outside the running ex-
penses of some $11OO per month, wher
as an examination of the report of
the city for the past year, aside from
the cementing of the bitches shows
month the sum of s2,93437. If this is
kept up by the new council, by July
1, the city will have contracted bills
that will not only have eaten up the
amounts now on hand, the money to
be realized from the ditch bond issue
and the revenues for the next quar-
ter and leave the city in the hole to
the tune of over a thousand and moth
ing on hand to pay the expenses for
the ensuing quarter. 1t is presumed,
however, that the new council will en-
deavor to keep the expenses down
and live within the income of the ci-
ty In addition, the new council will
have to contend with setting aside
the interest on the new $4,000 is
sue of bonds as it will be some time
before any revenue is derived from
the water works.

JEFFERSON MINE SOLD
FOR A BIG FIGURE

One of the biggest mining deals
which has been made in Southern Ne
vada for some time was consummated
in Tonopah this week when w. II. Me
Beth, Charles Brennenman and j. Flick,
all of New York, purchased the Charles
Konrahat mine-the old Jefferson mine
near Round Mountain, for the sun of
$350,000. The deal has been closed and
this morning Messrs. Flick and Bren-
nanman leave for San Francisco to close
the final contract for a $4,000 mill
ing plant, which will be erected. This
plant is already picked out in fact, and
the order to ship has been awaiting the
closing of the purchase of the mine. The
plant will be in operation by the first
of February and will have a capacity of
200 tons per day.
The Jefferson mine is one of the old
mines of the Round Mountain district
six miles from that place-and for the
past number of years it has been
worked on rather a crude basis, only
the high grade ore of which there is
considerable, being shipped out.
