FOR POWER
WENATCHEE ELECTRIC COM.
PANY AND ENTIAT POWER co.
SUBMIT BIDS FOR RUNNING
PUMPING PLANT.

The city council met last night in
regular session, with all the men,
bers present with the exception Of
Councilman Buttles.
The matter of granting water to
the residents of Miller street came
up for consideration, and it was vot-
ed to extend the mains and allow
them city water as soon as the sup
ply was sufficient for that purpose.
There will be no church socials in
the city park this year. The council
passed on this matter last night. In
view of the fact that there are two
pand concerts in the park each week
the council decided that in order to
keep the grass green and from being
tramped out that the socials should
be cut out this year.
On the application of Chief of Po-
lice Inscho the council ordered in
lights in the alleys back of Wells e
Morris, WEBSTER, Ellis-Forde and one
on the railway crossing on the road
to the G. & o. docks. There were
other applications for light but these
were referred to the light committee.
The fire and light committee was
instructed to enter into a contract
with S. M. Gladdis as engineer for
the new pumping plant at salary
of 500 a month. The council is also
to furnish Mr.. Gladids with a four
room house near the pumping plant.
Gladdis is now at Leavenworth but
can be here as soon as the pumping
plant is ready for running purposes.
Arthur Gum of the Wenatchee
Electric company and A. E. Weiland
of the Entiat Power company, sub
mitted bids to the council for power
for running the pumps at the city
pumping station. The bids were for
a long time contract and the matter
was referred to the water commit
tee.
The Eagle Transfer company was
awarded the contract for the i'm
provement of Douglas street from
Fourth street to Chelan avenue. The
contract calls for commencing the
work within ten days after being noti-
fed and that the work shall be COM
pleted within 80 days.
The contract calls for the grad
ing, graveling, curbing and sidewalk
ing of this street and the total con-
tract amounts to between $4,000 and
$4,000. Ball & McNerney were also
bidders on this work.
1t was stated at the meeting last
night that all but about s400 in de-
linquent sidewalk assessment had
been paid in and the city attorney
was instructed to bring suits if ne
cessary to force the collection of
these taxes.
The ordinance providing for the
creation of three voting wards in the
city was passed last night. This
means a new registration for the en-
tire city within the coming few
months.
The sub-sewer ordinances were
read and passed to the third reading.
Next week notices for bids will
be published for the Wenatchee ave-
nue. regrade work. The notices have
to be published two weeks and it
seems now that the Wenatchee ave-
nue. work can be started early in
July.

Or. Davis DuCked.

Last Sunday night DR.. DAVIS
had a call at the home Of Arthur
White living on the other side of Big
Creek just east of the cid Barbee
ford. He reached the creek all right,
about midnight and attempted 90
cross. The creek was much swollen
by recent rains ana the buggy was
ups and the doctor and his mt dicil Q
case dumpsd out.
The doctor managed to get his
team loose from the buggy that they
might have a chance for their lives,
then turned them loose to shift for
themselves while he swan ashore.
The next day he found his team all
right and borrowed a buggy and came
into town.
Such occurrences were quite common

day of bridges, as a number of the
older citizens Ct this town can testify
Bat the Doctors experience is rather
strenuous for present times.

Big Time At Humboldt.

Humboldt held her Fourth of July
celsbration last Monday. The oc-
cassion was the opening of their new
cement plant.
Geo. Williams OF this city was one
Of the big crowd of Chanuts people
who went up TO see Humb oldt's big
blow out. George says there was a
big crowd present Of jolly revelers
but that during the day and night
he failed to see a single drunk m IN.
How different that is from the old
day. Formerly IL was the custom Of
our toughs 20 go to Humboldt on
every public occasion aud frequently
between times, and have a high old
time, sndibg, up with a few broken
heads II mot worse. Now when they
60 to Humboldt they are expected to
bshavs themselves and they do.
According to Mr.. Williams the
exercises and entertainment were
foe.
He spoke particularly of the fire
works as being very superior. They
were set of from high platform on
the water tower and showed to great
advantage.
They have novel way of lighting
the gas on top of the high tower ia
the square. When all s ready the
gas is turned on and sky rocket
shot up through 1t, The plan is
effective.
Humboldt will have no celebration
on the 4th and her people, &c uerally,
will come to Chanute on that occa-
sian.

for example, as the growth of population
and consumption. To regulate currency by
trade itself would be like regulating the
size Of the bushel by the amplitude of the
wheat crop. On the contrary, it is cur
rency that should regulate trade and not
trade currency, because the former can,
while the latter cannot, be fixed. Money
can be limited; trade is and ought to be
illimitable. Its tendency is to grow spas

will not say of mine, but OF the Lincoln
administration as a whole, were proposed
as auxiliary to the power TO borrow money,
as an agency of the power to collect and
disburse taxes, and as an exercise OF the
power to regulate commerce., and of the
power to regulate the value of coin. OF
the two first sources of power, nothing
need be said. The argument relating to
them was long since exhausted, and Is well
known. OF the other two, it is not need
full to say much. II congress can prescribe
the structure, equipment, and management
of vessels to navigate rivers flowing be-
tween or through different states as a
regulation of commerce.. congress may as
suredly determine what currency shall be
employed in the interchange Of their COM
n o6ities, which Is the essence of COM

the power to regulate coin is, in substance

and that the trainers of the constitution

mitted that while congress confines its
regulation to weights, fineness, shape and
device, banks and individuals may issue
notes for currency in competition with
coin. But It is difficult to conceive by
what process of logic the unquestioned
power to regulate coin can be separated
from the power to maintain or restore its
circulation, by excluding from currency all
private or corporate substitutes which af-

He Looms Large.
AS It is with the tower in the city, so It
is has been with Abraham Lincoln. Year
by year he looms larger above the horizon
OF our national life-a great, serene, benefi-
cent ~figure-which seems to stretch its
arms out to us, saying OF that war as he
did at Gettysburg: a~s ~
1T is for us, the, living, rather to be dedi-
Gated to that unfinished work which they
who fought here have thus far so nobly
advanced. 1t is rather for us to be here
dedicated to the great task remaining be-
fore us, that from these honored dead we
take increased devotion to that cause for
which they gave the last full measure Of
devotion; that we here highly resolve that
these dead shall not have died In vain:
that this nation, under God, shall have a
new birth OF freedom; and that govern
ment Of the people, by the people and for
the people shall not perish from the EARTH
Although each portion of the American
people still look at Abraham Lincoln from a.
different angle n with widely different
sentiments and feelings, It is still true, 1,
believe, that the whole country has learned
to honor and revere his memory. To the
south he appears, as I have said, no longer
as an enemy, but a wise and sincere friend.
To the people who have inherited the tradi-
lions of the north he is the preserver of the
union, the second founder of the nation,
but to the negro people he will remain
for all time the nberator Of their. race. In
the eyes Of the excited and ecstatic freed
men at the close OF the war Lincoln APP
peared not merely as a great man, but as
a personal friend; not merely an enamel
pator, but a savior. I confess hat the
more l learn of Lncoln's life the more
am disposed to look at him much as my
mother and those early freedmen did, not
merely as a great man, not merely as a
statesman, but as one to whom l can GER
talnly turn for help and inspiration-as a
great moral leader. in whose patience, toll
erance and broad human sympathy there
is salvation for my race. and for all those
who are down. but struggling to rise. "

Said Judge Chase: THE attitude Of con

the treasury, in short OF the entire govern

the notes would be paid at their face value
in coin; they verde made receivable at
par for bonds. the interest of which was
payable in coin; a coin sinking u was
maintained; and the customs duties were
always required to be paid In coin"

prove that these assurances were but
lightly esteemed?" -.

take to assume that the premium on gold
correctly represented the depreciation OF
the greenbacks or the popular estimation

Chase with a quotation from one Of his

reduction OF the public debt to the amount

be retained on low interest at that amount.
