CITY COUNCIL.
Jeff Ward Gets Another "Lift"
From
City Administration.
The strenous labors of T. J. Ward as
boss of the gang of ditch-diggers at
the waterworks have been rewarded.
The physical exertion consequent upon
superintending such extensive works,
as well as the severe mental strain,
were beginning to tell upon Mr. Ward
and he asked for a raise in salary.
He got it, but not without some op
position. Councilman Warren moved
thiit the salary of Mr. Ward be raised
to Stn per month. When it came to a
vote, Warren and Robinson voted in
the atllrmative. Wolf and Diederich in
the negative, and it required the de
eding vote of Mayor Cather to "cinch
the raise." We hope that Mr. Ward's
modesty will not stand in the way of
his asking for another raise next
month.
The proposition of Paul S. Moon to
pay S:i.:!.-)0 in settlement of the suit of
the city of Red Cloud vs. Michigan
Trust Co., et til., now pending in the
supreme court, was unanimously ac
cepted. The mayor and clerk were authoriz
to renew the water contract with the
Rurliugtou railway at the old rate of
8 cents per thousand gallons.
The mayor authorized Councilman
Warren to confer with the city attor
ney in the drafting of a new water
ordinance.
Float Representative.
It is Webster county's turn to have
the float representative and already
candidates are beginning to loom up.
In our humble opinion there is a man
in Red Cloud who will fit the olllce.
'We refer to Dr. R. P. Raines, who is
at present a member of the Republi
can state central committee. While
the doctor has not yet announced his
candidacy for the olllce, we under
stand that he will accept the nomina
tion If It is offered tohiin. During his
four or five years residence in thiscity
Dr. Raines has built up an extensive
medical practice, and yet has found
considerable time to devote to the In
terests of the Republican party, and
has always shown a willingness and
especial fitness for the- work. We do
not believe a better man for the place
could be found in the district.
Couldn't Pay His Beats.
Now that the revival meetings are
in full swing and many persons are
professing religious convictions, the
following true story is not untimely:
A preacher at the conclusions of one
of his sermons said: "Let all in the
CASTOR I A
For Infants and Children.
Thi Kind You Have Always Bought
Boors tho
Signature of
5&r
house who arc paying their debts
stand up." Instantly every man,
woman and child, with one exception,
rose to their feet. "Now every man
not paying his debts stand up." The
exception noted, a careworn, hungry,
looking individual, clothed in a last
year's summer suit, slowly assumed a
perpendicular position.
"How is it, my friend," asked the
minister, "that you are the only man
not able to meet obligations'.'"
"I run a newspaper," he meekly an
swered, "and the brethren who stood
up are my subscribers, and "
"Let us pray," exclaimed the
preacher.
