fense was foreshadowed by his pre-

COMMENT

1t is reported that the Prog
ressive and the Democrats are to-
gether, which, if true, means the
end of the Progressives. 1t will
be remembered that the Demo
Gratis, Populists and Free Silver
Republicans got together and it
was only few short months be-
fore they had all become Demo
Gratis. If therefore the Progress
sives in the United States senate
have made up their minds to af-
fliate with the Democrats on all
national questions their political
end is already in sight.

WATER PROBLEM.

Visiting bidders for the extension of the city water works declare that in an Of their experience they have never known of a city receiving such uniformly low bids for city work as has been the case in Doug las. Not only are the bids low but the bidders have come very close together in their figures. This close- ness on the part of different bidders has made the work of choosing the successful ones the more difficult for Engineer Archer and the commis sion, but will be to the benefit of the city. One especial case Is men toned, that of NJ. F. Dicus and J. NJ. Sparks, two of the local bidders and it has required considerable figuring to determine which of the two is the lower since they bid in somewhat different manners
 There was no session of the com mission this morning and so the bidders who were on hand had a morning of waiting. They sta.ed however that when the commission met again at two o'clock this after noon they thought that rapid pro greas would be made toward final determination.
 At two o'clock the commission met in session at the water department office and again most of the bidders who remained in the city were pres ent and anxious to learn what the final conclusion would be.
 At three o'clock the commission was still in session and no awards had as yet been decided upon or an- r.5dnced.
