Sheep Raising In Australia.

Sheep raising conditions are about
the same In Australia as they are
here" said F. L. Burt of South Da-
kota, who is engaged in the sheep
raising business both in this country
and in Australia. The sheep over
there are raised mainly for their wool.
although the meat is also quite val
liable product for both the local and
export trade. The price of both wool
and NEST in Australia Is regulated by
London values. The meat, which is
shipped in cold storage vessels, can
be kept fresh very easily. Farm 10.
borers in Australia receive . In the
neighborhood Of $40 month, which
is practically the same as they get
here. In the towns the mechanics are
paid about $3.50 to four dollars q day.
Living may possibly be little cheap
er over there, but the difference Is not
very great. As far as agricultural
conditions generally are concerned,
you have many advantages here. The
climate In Australia Is too dry. The
winters there are not so cold, how
ever, and while the summers are hot
the heat is not oppressive"

aging. Some people like to do things
differently from the ordinary, and
notice that such folks generally get
more out of life. Some families live
in their houses. while others make
the house a place to stay In when
necessary and get away from it as
much and as often as possible.
A good deal depends ON the
house plan In the first place,
but more depends ON the house
keeper, because one person will make
house comfortable and inviting

as hard, perhaps. has the faculty of
making things rather unpleasant The
chairs may be too nice to sit down in
or there may be lot of bric-a-brac
in the way, stuff you are afraid OF
breaking or disarranging. The study
of a home means much more than
the plan and manner of building the
house.

SECURE SERVICES OF PAVING EXPERT;
REFUSE To APPOINT NEW ELECTION JUDGES
No Raise in Aldermanc Salares-Llvey Tilt Over Plumb
ers LicenSe---New Walks Ordered---O O Ordinances
Passed--Poice Alarm System Explained

Attorney Lacy McClintock then
addressed the council, stating that he
in his capacity as legal adviser for
anti-saloon forces. would speak in
behalf of the petition presented by
the anti-saloon people. While he
made no charge whatever that the
election judges had been illegally ap-
pointed, in fact he admitted that the
council had the power to make the
appointments made at the previous
meeting and that the entire matter
rested with the council, yet he
thought that the anti-saloon forces
should be allowed to name number
of the judges. He declared that he
was not nor was the executive COM
mittee of the anti-saloon organiza-
ton. making any personal charges
against the judges that had been Sc
lected. While he did not say So
these attacks are being left to the
morning sheet, the official organ of
the anti-saloon forces, and that sheet
is making dirty charges against the
men appointed, not only in its own
columns but through the columns of
Denver and Pueblo papers.
Attorney McClintock' address was
free from abuse or the making of
charges He realized, il was evident,
that the council had not acted illeg-
ally in making the appointment of
election Judges. Yet he as the legal
adviser of the anti-saloon organi9a-
ton, was urging the council to do
something Illegal to attempt TO re
scnd its previous action and to make
change in the personnel of the
board of election judges after 1t was
too late. in the eyes of the law, to
make such changes.
Following Attorney McClintoell
there was no further discussion and
on motion the matter went over until
| later in the evening.
The street and alley committee re-
ported fayorably on the petition ask
| ing that sidewalks he ordered laid on
the north side OF block 127.
The water, sewer and light COM
mitteo reported favurnbly on the pc
tition for water main on Belford
between Fifth and Third streets.
These two reports were accepted
(by the council.
The purchasing committee report
ed favorably on the contract with the
| Continental Oil company but at the
request of Water Supt, Vedder the
matter of signing the contract went
over for one week.
Then came n most interesting and

plication of J. A. May for plumbers

II was busy and most interesting
session that the city council held last
evening. There was n large attend
ance of citizens, mainly members Of
abe Socialist and Anti-Saloon organ
izations who were over to the council
chamber to make an effort to get II
change made in the personnel of the
election judges. S. b. Hutchinson
aud w. w. Goodman lead the social
Istic delegation while Lacy McClin-
lock, Sterling Lacy and Rev. ]. NJ. p.
Martin were at the head of the Anti
Saloon delegation.
Council was late getting under way
owing to the fact that several of the
members were tardy in arriving.
There were seven aldermen present,
only Alderman Flynn being absent.
Quite long time was required in
reading the minutes of the last reg
ular and adjourned meeting but
these minutes, gotten up in the in
teresting, accurate and comprehens-
i've manner so characteristic of City
Clerk Conley, were given close at
tention by al present
A petition was received from Dan
Friedman asking for permission to
brick veneer a building The matter
vas referred to the proper committee
petition was then read from the
loon party, which petition set forth
that the anti-saloon forces or Good
citizenship League did not believe
that proper representation on the
hoard Of election judges. which board
was elected in the formal and legal
manner as prescribed by law, at the
last meeting of the city council. had
been given the anti-saloon forces.
The petition contained list of names
that the anti-saloon committee de-
sired to have accepted as their rep
yesentatlves on the election judge
board. one selection being made for
each ward. The petition was quite
lengthy
A petition was also received from
the Socialist party asking that they
be granted representatives ON the
election board and this petition also
submitted list Of names to the
council.
After the reading of the petitions
Mayor Wentworth announced that if
any citizen was present who desired
10 make any statements to the coun-
ell he ana the council would be glad
to hear such statements.
S. b. Hutchinson made a fow re
marks in behalf of the Socialist
nnrty's petition for representation OF
the board of election judges.
The daily sentinel., 1909-03-24

ular in every way, had been made at
regular adjourned session of the
council and had been made at "a date
even later than such appointments
are usually made. Mayor Wentworth
declared that the citizens appointed
as election judges were nearly all
old timers, widely acquainted in their
respective wards and that no charges
had been made against any of them
and that speaking for himself, he did
not know the position OF any of these
gentlemen are taking on the various
questions to be voted upon at the
coming election.
Alderman Hertz then addressed
the council on the matter. He stated
that the Judges had been legally Sc
lected, that they had been notified of
their appointments, presented with
their commissions and that there was
now nothing the council could do
toward making any changes. Mr.
Hertz declared that if the petition of
the anti-saloOn people had come be-
fore the council at the proper time
that he for one would have had no
objections to appointing Il number OF
these men, that ne knew nearly all of
them and they were good citizens.
He stated that he also knew nearly
all of the men whom the council had
election and he knew that they were
fair minded men and would conduct
the election in AN honorable manner.
that no personal charges had been
made against them, that il the anti
saloon people had any charges to
make against these men they should
do so. Alderman Hertz than declared
that he believed this petition was
presented by the anti-saloon people
for no other reason thnn to attempt
to make political capital for their
side and not in IA spirit of sincere
objections to the action of the coun-
Gil, which action they had to admit
was perfectly legal, regular and just.
Alderman Hertz declared that he did
not know which side hardly any of
the men appointed as election judges
were taking in the present municipal
contest. He declared that the pro-
tests were simply hatched up by the
morning yellow" and the hypocrit-
ical agitators.
Alderman Drew believed that the
anti-saloon people and the Socialists
had been negligent in presenting
nominations for election judges. that
he knew of no charges against the
men who had been appointed and he
knew nothing of their political views
at this time.
Similar expressions of belief in the
legality of the councils action were
made by Aldermen Plank, Matthews
and Davies.
The aldermen were of the one
opinion that the council had done
nothing Illegal or unfair and that no
charge should be made.
Motions to lay the two petitions on
the table were made and carried by
unanimous vote.
Members of the anti-snloon organ
ization admitted today that nothing
further will be done toward getting
change made in the personnel of the
election judges and that the council
acted within its legal rights in maxi
ing the appointments. Few people
seriously object to the appointments.
After the disposal of these petit
tions the council adjourned.
