there being practically sold for the year.
New structural contracts have been of
only fair volume. but the total of work
actually in sight is again above $50 900
tons. This fact may help to stiffen

competition, particularly in the Chicago
district.
Pig iron producers are not yet ready
to say that the increase in inquiry in

TELEPHONE DEAL UP TO THE
COUNCIL MONDAY NIGHT 80.

COUNCIL MONDAY MIGHT
Monday nights session of the city
council will be one of the most i'm
portant ever held by that body. For
on that night the question of the COB
bling of the Automatic Telephone Co.
by the American, Telephone & Tele-
graph Co. will come UP.
The garbage deal is paltry COM
pared with this. And the city admin
istration having hopelessly failed in
that matter must now make good in
this more important business. Aid.
Chas. E. Merriam will head the fight
for the people against the steal.
Just who will be the floor leader
of the fight for the telephone trust
hasn't been decided. But there are
several candidates.
= Meanwhile the Telephone Users
Assn and several other societies are
busy in their campaign to get better
and cheaper telephone service for
Chicago. +-.-.
Petitions are being circulated by
the Telephone Users Assn calling
upon the mayor and the city council
to block the effort of the phone mag
mates to establish monopoly and
have the city take over the automatic
plant.
The petition begs them to guard
the city's interests and prevent the
aldermen from committing civic
iniquity. Already there are several
thousand signatures.
The Women's Party of Cook Coun-
ty, whom the hide-bound old political
bosses are now forced to consider,
have also taken up the bludgeon for
the people. And under the critical
eyes of the newly-enfranchised vot-
ers the aldermen will be forced to go
slow or commit political suicide. It's
a question whether Aid. Chas. Twigg,
a staunch telephone company adher-
ent, will lose his monopoly cour-

up at their weekly meeting tomorrow
night. -:
Aid. Chas. E. Merriam, Harold D.

will speak on the matter The two
topics for discussion will be:
LIST. Is the proposed sale of the
automatic system steal2 --
End. If the Council ratifies the sale
will it betray the city's interests?
The Eighteenth Ward branch of
the Socialist Party has unanimously
endorsed the petition circulated by
the Telephone Users Assn.
They have also ordered their dele

tee to take the matter up with that
body with view to taking such steps
as are necessary to aid the city in

White county, brother of Mr.. Glenn

and an old st. Francis county boy
who worked his way through the
Arkansas University, and graduated
with honors, was unanimously en-
dorsed for the position OF Circuit
Judge, to succeed the late Judge H.

Mr. Jackson was a candidate before

we know not whether the powers

a voice in saying who shall fill the va
cancies that Divine Providence has
seen tit to bring about, or not; but
we have been taught ever since our
tongue first learned to lisp the name

Is this an Aladdin's dream?

that we are rapidly drifting to mon

The point in question, fellow.citi-
zens, is this: A short time ago, by the
sad and untimely death OF the lamen-
ted j. B. Terry, there occurred a va
cancy in the office Of Treasurer of St.
Francis county.
We, as citizen OF this county, be-
lieye that the people ought to have a

belief, we want to say that should it
be decided to leave Mr.. Terrv's sue
cessor to the voice of the people, we
know OF no man who could more wor-
thily and honorably ill this position
than Mr.. T. d. Hampton, of Telico

Tom Hampton was born and reared
in this county, of an old and influen-
tial family. He has a world of rela
tives, and more friends, who would
like TO see this honor conferred upon
him. He is as honest as the days are
long, and has filled many positions of
honor and trust in his township. He
will be very reluctant to enter the
race, but these, citizens, are
the kind of men to fill our public po-
sitions. His township will support
him to man, provided he can be pre-
vailed upon TO offer for the office.

Among the 80 cases dismissed Tues

three for a violation of the liquor laws
and one for pool selling and bookmak-
ing Those cases, it was stated by

them could not be made out. Bob
Glenn, proprietor Of the Old Kentucky
Home saloon, on Broadway. was a de-
fendant in one of the liquor cases. The
others were: Mrs. Beulan Eachart, who
was docketed on the charge of selling
liquor without q license; J. Broyles,

on San Antonio street, who was charged
with selling liquor on Sunday Sam
Kline was the defendant in the case

SAYS E PA5O CAN
-GET MINES SCHOOL
Milton Everett Declares Ell
PasO Is the Place For
Such a School.

FL PasO can secure a state school OF
mines, a branch OF the university OF
Texas, if it VIII make an effort IN that
direction This is the opinion of Milton
Everett, publicity agent for the univer-
sitv of Texas, who is in Ell PasO.
Discussing the proposition, Mr.. Everett
SAYS: lei PasO should 90 after a branch
of the university and the time to secure
it Is now. There IS a plan on loot to
secure a separation of the Texas a. &
n. college and the university of Texas.
1t would be. well to get the school OF
mines as a branch of the university
while this matter Is up. In a small way
there is a slight interest in geology ana
it is investigated some. However, in
west Texas there are 100000 acres
of land belonging to the state of Texas.
1t would be well to find out what min
erals they contain and in order to do so
Investigations must be made. This could
be done by the establishment of a school,
of mines here.
Gel Paso Is the place for such an insti-
tuition. Besides it could be secured now,
when the legislature Is favorable to such
action. The plan is to establish = tax
to support the university so thar the
appropriation viii keep up with the
progress Of the institution.
The medical school OF the university
of Texas Is located at Galveston. The
school of mines should be located IN El
PasO. An effort on the part of FL PasO-
ans viii bring it here. so it is up to FL
PasO to make that effort.
in line with the proposal made "

Military institute buildings and grounds
could be secured and would form a nlA-
