This week it was again found con palsory to turn the creek into the city water works wells in order to supply the demand. The demand, eince there is no water commissioner, is something wonderful. An artesian well would ot furnish eaough. And the worst of it is there has not been a cent of water tax paid this year. Tho question nat urally arises, who pays for all this water that is used? The wator con sumers may pay two. fifths of tho ex pense, but the tax payor pays the rest. Why not put in meters and put the water works on a paying basis? While it may be true that it would cost twolvo or flfteeu hundred dnllats it would bo a blessing to four-fifths ot our citizens who do not use city water but who pay a tax of from live to ten mills every year to keep up tho wster works. If the present council wants to muko a record for thoinsnlves and at 'tho same timo gain the good will of tho citizen tax payers, let them put in a mntar for cvorv consumer, and ninko a i rate for water that will put the system on n paying basis. This thing of pay ing taxes for some one else's heiclit 'gets very monotonous if kept up long 1 enough. Wo think ills pretty safe to say that the amount received for water under the present rato will not pay for the coaluied ia pumping the water. LOCALLY Ilread boxes at tho Fair.

The appearance of James Sterner at the depot here on Wednesday upon arrl yal of train 10 is explained by the following telegram to the Kansas City Star from Norcatur, Kansas. Wo bad known that he visited Red Cloud for four days and were surprised to see him return. When ho passed through here he did not appear to be in the custody of any one. "James Sterner, the conrict who escaped from tho penitentiary at Lan sing May 12, passed through hern this morning, accompanied by nn ofllccr, on his way back to tho ponitontiary. Sterner was seen on tho train by n cor. respondent for tho Star. Ho said of his escape: 'I was ono of tno trusties nnd wo wcro in tho habit of going out after supper. Tho night wo left, I'ahst who wont with me, walked out with mo nnd when we wero out a inllo I'abst kept on going, I said: 'Aro you going?' Ho said, Yes,' and so wo kept on.
