i. w. Fairbanks, representing local
capitalists, submitted a proposition to
furnish the city waterworks. On motion
the meeting took a recess until Wednes-
day evening. On Wednesday evening
the further consideration of the Fair
banks proposition was postponed until
the next regular meeting. A petition
signed by sixty taxpayers, asking that
the proposed ordinance granting fran
chise to Mr.. Esden be submitted to
vote of the taxpayers of the city, was
presented and placed on file.
The petition for an election was pre-
sented in accordance with section SS of
the city charter, which is in part, as fol-
lows: Provided, that if at any time
within twenty days from the date of the
first publication of the resolution in the
preceding section, petition signed by
not less than fifty residents and taxpay-
ers in said city, representing not less
than tenth of the taxable property
of said city, according to the next pre-
ceding assessment roll, shall be pre-
sented to the council, praying for
special election in said city upon the
question of whether or not the proposed
ordinance shall be passed, then it shall
be the duty of the council to call spec
ial election as soon as practicable; such
election shall be held and conducted, as
nearly as possible, in the same manner
as elections for city officers"
Unless the petition is withdrawn the
council must call special election and
the taxpayers must decide, by ballot,
whether the Esden proposition will be
accepted.
The proposition of the local capitalists
is much better for the city than the Es-
den proposition in two particulars.
First, it allows the city to purchase at
any time after October l, 1909, by pay
ing the actual cost of the plant with in
terest at s per cent per annum Second,
it gives the city ample fire protection tor
5000 per month, saving OF 500 per
month over the other offer.
The council certainly have something
to think about. Who wouldn't be a
public official

ALL DOUBT DISPELLED
The Mountain View District is
Proven.

The stockholders of the Wilson Gold
Mines company are elated over the de-
velopments of the past week. The tun-
mel, now in 270 feet, has cut the ledge
and opened up four feet of rich ore.
The ore is just as free as on the sur
face and considerably richer. This
proves the ledge at depth of $50 feet
and shows one of the few true fssure
veins to be found in Nevada.

PRESIDENT FAvoRs HUGHES
Political Gossip Relative to Confer
ence at Oyster Bay.

Oyster, Bay, H. l., Sept. 3.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt had ii out with sew
eral of the Republican state leaders
when he summoned them here and
told them fatty that Gov. Hughes
would have TO be renominated. The
leaders protested and tried to argue
the President out of his position, but
Mr. Roosevelt was firm, and when the
conference was over the leaders crept
away, crestfallen, as secretly as they
came.
The name of only one of the lead
ers who came here is known. He
was William l.. Ward of Westchester,
a member of both the Republican
national and state committees. Two
others are said to have been State
Chairman Timothy l.. Woodruff and
President of the County Committee
Herbert Parsons. Mr.. Ward brought
them in his yacht across the sound
from Port Chester, struggled them
through the woods to Sycamore Hill,
and took them away again in the
same guarded manner. Only NJ.
Ward was announced at the executive
Office as coming.
Other visitors at the hill who were
present at least part of the time that
state politics were being discussed
were Secretary Of the Treasury Cor
telyou and Silas McBee editor of The
Churchman, strong Hughes man.
The President had so thoroughly
made up his mind that Gov. Hughes
should be renominated that for the
first time he determined to issue a
statement on the subject to the pub
lie. After thinking 1t over, however,
he decided to let Mr.. McBee be his
mouthpiece, and when the editor re-
turned to the village he gave out
this statement, saying that 1t was ex'
actly what the President had told
Mr.. Ward and the other leaders:
Il have no intention of trying to die
tate the action of the Republican
state convention. But | am a citizen
of New York and am, therefore, en-,
titled to express my judgment on
such an issue as the nomination for
governor And my judgment is that
it is absolutely necessary to renomi
nate Mr.. Hughes"

e. &. HART IN RUNAWAY
Colt Becomes Unmsnageable and
Causes much Excitement.

An exciting runaway occurred this
noon on Main street when colt
driven by +. Il. Hart became unman-
ageable and dashed up the street
from the corner pell nell until gotten
under control by Mr., Hart just above
Walbridge's store. The cause of the
runaway was the breaking of one OF
the hold back straps or breeching
which let the wagon down on the
horse and frightened him.
| In crossing the car track below
School street +. f. Hart, Jr., who was
riding with his father was thrown out
but received no injuries beyond few
scratches. The wagon crossed the
track several times nearly upsetting
II each time. When Walbridge 5
store was reached the horse began to
cool down and with the aid OF man
who had seized the frightened animal
by the bit, Mr.. Hart managed to get
him under control From a distance
II looked as though he had gone a
few feet farther the wagon would
have struck telegraph pole and
would have been dashed to pieces
The horse kicked furously at times
and smashed the dash board of the
wagon to pieces. Mr.. Hart was prac
tically uninjured save for few minoi
bruises.

JAIL NO PLACE FOR THAw
Commission Condemns His Detention
at Pouuhkeepsie

/
Albany, Sept. 3.-Harry X. Thaw's
! further detention in the Duchess
county jail at Poughkeepsie awaiting
the outcome of litigation is condem-
ned vigorously In report made TO
the state prison commission by Sec
rotary George Mclaughlin Of the com
mission In connection with his obser-
vations made In an inspection OF the
jail on August "A last
After noting that Thaw's detention
In the jail has already extended over
period of several months and
promises to be interminable, the re-
port to the state commission, which
was received and approved by that
body, says:
His presence in this prison is en-
barrassing to the sheriff and object
ionable on many accounts. The
sheriff has not room for him except
in the padded cell. Even this he
needs for temporary uses, and 1t
would be an entirely unfit place in
which to confine a man for months
Having been adjudged insane with
homicidal tendencies, the sheriff
would not be justified in combining
him with the other prisoners.
He consumes a large amount OF
the time of the jailer in escorting him
to Fishkill Landing, White Plains and
other places to attend hearings before
the court and before referees, time
which the jailer needs for his other
duties. There is a good deal of pub
lie talk that some of these hearings
are on fake suits, instituted by his
| friends TO give him these outings.
"At all events It devolves upon the
sheriff and his assistants a large
amount of work which does not be-
long to his Office and is no part of his
official duties. The jail is not a
proper place for the confinement OF
a lunatic. While at times public in
terests may require that the sheriff
shall take charge of an alleged lun.
attic for a day or two, until he can be
transferred to an asylum, the deten.
ton OF lunatic in a common jail for
months cannot be approved.
His presence here demoralizes
the discipline OF the institution. He
sleeps in the corridor, not in the cell
He has all the fixtures and parapher

his food from the hotel, which has to
be brought TO him three times a day
"The county law requires the
board Of supervisors to furnish jails
having separate quarters for different
classes OF prisoners. This law does
not require a jail TO have facilities
for the care of insane people. and this
commission has no power to require
the local authorities to furnish such
facilities. There are In this same
county two state institutions for the
care of the insane.
1T would seem that a person WHIT
had been adjudged insane, but whit
is now conducting proceedings TO
his discharge on the ground OF re
covery should be detained in an In
: stitution where he would be unde

them for the proper care OF insan
people, and this commission shoul
