,bL0ME COMPANY LANDED PAVING
CONTRACT IN DISTRICT EIGHTEEN

man Valley signing the Blome peti-
tlon, were then given to the same in
spection committee. The report was
to the effect that there was a total of
S,l64 feet frontage to be paved, of this
amount 200 feet was optional. 1872
feet owned by. the Northern Pacific
which went the way of the majority,
~ feet signed up for the asphalt and
1908 for the Blome.
Alderman Valley moved that the
contract be awarded to the Blome
company and heated discussion fol-
lowed. The question was raised as
to whether the st. Michael's hospital,
which was represented on the Blome
petition by 446 feet should be allow
ed to sign. M. Norman stated that
he considered the hospital as q cor
poration and in that case should have
no voice in what the property owners
wanted laid. He stated that inasmuch
as more individual property owners
were represented on the asphalt pc
tition than on the Blome their re-
quests should be heard. Alderman
Ryan bitterly opposed the granting of
the contract to the Blome company,
charging the council with railroad
ing the contract for district Is
through. This brought Alderman San
mes to his feet with denial of such
AN accusation. the latter stating that
he did not consider It railroading
when the big majority of the property
owners were in favor Of Blome.
Alderman Hunter thought thnt the
majority Of the property owners had
signed petition. Alderman Sorlie
thought that the petition with the
largest amount of frontage signed
should have the support of the coun-
Gil.
Alderman Ryan asked the council
for a day further in which to circu-
late the petitions more extensively.
Alderman Wadsley did not see any
reason why this should be done and
stated that If the council was running
q railroad they could sidetrack the
contract. A further discussion follow
ed and the motion Of Alderman Ryan
to defer the matter for a day was
lost by a seven to four vote. Alder
man Salisbury passing as he thought
the matter should be settled among
tho taxpayers themselves.
Alderman Valleys motion to pave
the district with Blome was then put
to q vote and was passed by the same
vote. The motion to award to the
Blome company was passed unani-
mously. The city attorney was in
structed to draw up the required con-
tract and have the required bond fur
nashed.
The council then adjourned sine die
and the regular. annual meeting was
called to order.

BABY's TERRIBLE SUFFERING

when my baby was six months old.
his body was completely covered with
large sores that seemed to Itch and
burn. and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began in pimples which
would open and run, making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell on. and the sores were over
the entire body. causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would come OF when removed his
shirt.
we tried a great many remedies.
but nothing would help him. till q
friend induced me to try the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment used the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment but short
time before l could see that he was
improving. and in six weeks time he
was entirely cured. He had suffered
about SIX weeks before we tried the
Cuicura Soap and Ointment. although
We had tried several other things. and

them. and great deal more"

LITTLE RUsE DIDN'T SUCCEED
Youngsters Scheme Was All Right,
But Economical Father Was a
Match for Him.

The proprietor of the most promi-
hent hotel In the town of s., Ky.
Is man of very economical ma
ture, In fact he is an extremist in
this feature. He has a six-year-old.
red-headed son that didn't inherit his
fathers economical disposition. Re-
Gently the son was very much in need
of a fve-cent piece for soda water
purposes. He went into the dining
rom. where he was free from obser-
walton. and removed his shoe strings
and placed them in his hip pocket for
future reference. Returning to the
office he approached his father and
said:
PA. give me nickel to get me =
pair of shoe strings"
His father glanced down at his
sons shoes, then turning around ap-
preached the ONCE safe and opened
1t in silence. He took out the cash
box and raising the lid extracted a
pair OF new shoe strings. which he
handed to his son without word.
The youngster took the strings with a
crestfallen air and then to the amuse-
ment of the onlookers exclaimed:
"Stung again. by granny"

Il Article No. 10.

After the publication of his first
great work, Henry George put out sew
en- other important books that re-
yolved around his central work like
the planets around the sun. The little
booklet called the Land Question
might be likened to Mercury, which is
nearest to the sun and would make the
number complete. About these Primary
Planets he wove his Satellites and
Asteroids, in the shape OF many small
pamphlets, lectures, etc, including
The Standard which was published
In New York city during the late SOS,
and early '90's. When offered hun
dreds of thousands of dollars If he
would drop out the Single Tax" and
maintain II as simply a Free Trade
paper, he, and his two great lieuten-
ants, Post and Croasdale. decided 10
kill rather than prostitute it, SO this
first great paper Of the most vital
movement OF modern times chose
death rather than dishonor" and
every Georgian on earth rejoices that
II did so.
The books that were mentioned are
The Land Question" (pamphleD
Progress and Poverty" Social Prob
lens" Property in Land" The Con-
ditions OF Labor" "A Perplexed Phil

and THE Science of Political Econ
