CofnmlBHloner Wolch hns a plan
which ho will propose to the City
Council In tho near, future whereby
ho thinks tho city will bo assured of
nn adequate supply of water. Tho
city now owns a big pump with a
capacity or 2100 gallons a mlnuto,
Tho auxiliary pump In tho south part
of thoCIty Is to semi out 000 gallons
a mlnuto. Tho plan ia to Install two
moro pumpB at tho wator station,
each having a capacity of 1050 gal
lons a minute. Tho total will thus bo
over five thousand gallons a minute.
The normal consumption on an ordin
ary summer day wbuld bo about 4C00
gallons. Ihht luiYcs a good margin,
It also provides for an adequato sup
ply of wator hi caso tho big pump'
wer to break down and It gives nn op
portunity to "rollovo the strain on tho
big pump when noccsary.
Curb parking went Into operation
Monday morning with no hitch and
no trouble. OcnuRlnnAllv-. n. driver
slopped at his 'tilt! stand fn tio con- j
tor or no street out no qnipitiy stcp-i
cd on tho proper stepper arid pulled'
over ;,fo tho curb. One man told us
tbat ho was sent down town early
this morning to got two dollars
worth oLu certain kind of staple dry
goods, Ho slopped iu front of a
storo but was informed that tho
owner did not want anyone to park
there no ho went qn up tho Btrcot
and parked In front of another storo
whero ho bought tho required goods
and went home. This mny bp an
extreme case but It was given to uh
an a fact. While tho Tribune editor
Is aware of corlaln Inconveniences
and somo strong arguments against
curb parking, bo Is in favor of giv
ing it a thorough trial for sevoral
months before taking a positive
stand against It.
lilHowhoro wo publish a call for a
Democratic City convention. At tbc
time of writing this wo have not had
a call for tho Republican caucus but
wo understand ono is to bo called.
Tho whole movement In American
municipal politics In recent years
has been away from domination by
thotijtjlonal parties. The national
parties have nothing In como'n with
local politics. Such caucuses do not
give' tho independent volor of tho
Aty a chance at nominations. It
puts tho"wholo matter Into tho bands
of tho politicians. And the politici
ans have, not mado a shining success
of 'cTty politics In this country.
Wo claim, to bo Independent of
any political parly. Wo expect to
cover the caucuses as a newspaper
nlaujtoj. we. do" not sco how wo could

THURSDAY AND FRIDAY.
AFORTUNE
AND A GIRL
Elks might put up a candidate for
Mayor, elect him and lie might give
us a good administration but wo
would not be satisfied, with tho
method. Many cities .would resent
tho interference (of tho Republican
party or tho Democratic party in tho
affairs of the city as much as thoy
would rosent tho Interference of the
Catholics or tho Metliddlsts. Tho
plan lias been discarded and North
Platte should got away from It as
soon as possible.
' Hut tho caucuses have been called
Wo have decided on that method of
nominations and ovory citizen who
claims to havo a preference for
cither party should bo on hand at
tho appointed time and placo and
tako his or her part in tho business
of the convention. It Is probable
that good candidates will be selected
but It Is not'certaln and unless good
men aro put up It will bo the busi
ness of tho respectable element of
each party to see that good men are
named otherwise.
