 Basin Cleaned

Gadsden. May 4.-(special.)-Th new meter ordinance recently passed by the city council over the veto of the mayor has created a great deal of dissatisfac- ton among the water consumers. The ordinance requires that all water must be taken by meter and that the meters will be installed at the cost of the con sumer or owner of the property where located. This leaves the matter as to whether the landlord or tenant shall bear the cost of installation open and of course neither feels inclined to bear the burden.

SILK AROUND THE WORLD.
Speed Records Made In HandIin!
This Precious Commodity.

Speed Records Made In Handling
This Precious Commodity.
By Associated Press.
ST. PAUL, June 22.-Talking about
transportation feats of the pres
ent date, here is another item
regarding a silk train special over
the Northern Pacific Railway that
causes one to stop and compare the
transportation facilities Of the pres
ent date with what they were even
as short time as a quarter of cen
fury ago.
On May 25th the steamer Cyclope
OF the "Blue Funnel Line" left YOka-
homa, having in its cargo 1850 bales
of silk valued at $685., 900. On Sat-
urday, June 9Th at PAS p. M, this
silk loaded in five baggage cars with
a passenger coach for the crew, left
Tacoma bound for Saint Paul over
the Northern Pacific and running
special. This train reached Saint
Paul at $50 p. m. Monday, June 10th,
where it has turned over to the Bur
lington road en- route to Chicago and
from there to New York was carried
over the Pennsylvania system.
The train Travelled over the North
ern Pacific. including the crossing OF
both the Cascade and Rocky Noun
tain ranges, at an average rate OF
speed of Sc miles an hour, including
all stops and twelve changes of en-"
ginemen. The distance travelled be-
tween Tacoma and Saint Paul, 1904
miles. was made in 81 hours and IS
minutes. These bales of silk were
transported 1859 miles across the Pa
cific ocean. 1904 miles over the
Northern Pacific 431 miles over the
Burlington. and 9O7 miles over the
Pennsylvania road, making total of
1901 miles in all from the starting
point to destination. In the eastern
silk mills this raw material from
China will be worked up into gar
ments for Milady of Fashion.
It is such episodes in transportation
as this that make us consider the
great dependability of the remote Sec
tons of the earth upon each other, not
alone for the Injuries of life but
even, in many cases, for the absolute
necessaries, at least, as the latter
word is understood in this 10Th Gen.
fury.
