PRINTER'S PLUNDER ;
The Prospect is That They
Will Not Have So
Much of it ,
A Dig Leak In the City Treasury Is to
Bo Stopped.
The question of the city printing
has been agitated by Tim BEE , it being
ing the only paper here which has
thus far dared peep upon tin nutter ,
and the only paper that has given the
public the facts to which it is entitled.
At the meeting of the city council
Tuesday evening another discussion
was had concerning it , it being called
up by a bill of The Nonpareil , calling
for $121.05 for printing done in
March , The bill had been presented
once before , but not being properly
certified to , it was sent back. Lost
night it appeared again with a recom
mendation from Auditor Burke that
it bo paid The fact waa elicited that
the auditor was at homo sick , and had
liad no opportunity to verify the bill
by comparing it item by item. The
a\zo \ ol the bill rather astonished thu
aldermen , nnd the items wore read
ono by one and diocusaed , and then
referred to. the committee on printing.
There wore several interesting items
in the bill , among which wore those
for publishing thu oflicial proceeding/ !
of the council nt fifteen cents a equaru ,
which gave rise lo n Kcticr.il talk to
-ho clftict that this expenditure ought
n the future to bn cut oil entirely ,
'or the reasons given in Tin : DEB yet.-
; crday. Aid. Kowoll announced that
ho committee on printing was in cor
respondence with other cities and
would noon have some facts nnd fig
ures , which would show how their
muting bills compared with those of
this city.
Attention was also called to a notice
signed by Chief Fields warning citi
zens to clear up the alloys nnd not to
hrow rubbish in the streets. This
notice of six lines , printed in the Kon-
ureil , was charged in the bill at
510.80. Tlicro was no necessity for
ho notice in the first place , vns the
city is not supposed to bo cxpondng
nonoy warning citizens not to violate
ta long established ordinances. Fur- '
her than that the notice was printed
eng after the paper was told to take
t out.
Some talk was had informally as to
whether the council could not have
omothing to say about how long pro
clamations of the mayor should bo
published. It was stated that the
> reclamation the last two years cost
? GOO. It was shown that some procla
mations had been published thirty
imes , when required by law to bu
) tiblished once n week for four weeks ,
i'ho city has had to pay for this and it
a now proposed to stop this foolish
ness.
ness.Another
Another interesting incident arose.
AB has already been stated in THK
JEK , a sealed envelope had been hand
ed in to the council purporting to con
tain i > sworn statement showing the
circulation of The Nonpareil in this
city. The envelope was presented the
evening before on condition that it
should not be opened except under
pledge of secrecy. The council re
jected this , nnd the restriction was
partially withdrawn at the last meet
ing , the council being , however , re
quested not "to post it about" nnd
make it public. The envelope was
opened and contained what purported
.o bo t lion worn statement of the book
keeper of The Nonpareil , that to his
"best knowledge nnd belief" the cir
culation of The Nonpareil was ono
thousand. It was referred to the
committco on printing.
The "sworn statement" cunningly
avoids stating how many actual sub
scribers 'Jho Nonpareil has. Any
publisher , capable of charging the city
such bills , could run ofl' enough extra
copies one morning to make n thous
and papers "circulated , " on the par
ticular day on which the statement
was nwtlo , but The Nonpareil cannot ,
nnd with all its cheek , dare not , pre
sent n sworn statement that its bona
"ido circulation has averaged for n
uonth 1,000 papers.
It is understood that the previous
csolutions are to bo rescinded , and
lint the printing of proceedings is to
jo done away with , and that the pub-
inning of ordinances , etc , , will bo lot
p the lowest bidder , irrespective of
simulation. If this change is made ,
it will revolutionize all previous cus-
oms. Ono thing is certain , the tax
? ayers are tired ot giving charity to
iapera which have not enough vim to
ive without it.
BADLY BEATEN.
Al.tttjo Four-Year-Old Is Thumped
Ulnole and Blue by Anna Henry ,
Yesterday complaint was made
against Anne Henry , n well known
woman of the town , for boating un
mercifully a little follow named Willie
Simpson. It appears that Willie is
only four years of ago and his mother
who is said to bo of easy virtue , left
him nt Anna Henry's while she proceeded -
ceoded westward. A few days ago
the mother sent Anna Henry about
840 to have the child sent to her , but
for come reason she failed to do so. It
waa ascertained yesterday that for
some trivial offense on the part of the
child , the woman boat him un Jiorci-
fully , there being hardly a spot on hi *
little body but what bore the marks
of the brutality. The child wna nt
once taken from the don in which ho
was thus used , aud being provided
with now clothes by the superintend-
out of the poor , was given into the
charge oi a worthy family living a
short distance in the country , who
have no children of
their own , anc
who seem willing to adopt the little
follow. A warrant was issued for
Anna Henry , and the will bo called
on to answer to the charge of bru
tality ,

STREET IMPROVEMENTS ,
An Import-ant Move LJn.de by
the Council Concarning
Taxation.
Knch Property Owner to Pay For
What Is Done In Front of
His Own Lots
Some time ago TUB BEE made pub
Ho the fact that some of the citizens
desired n change in the mode of rais
ing money for street improvements ,
by which those desiring streets graded
or paved could have them done by n
special assessment on the property
bone fit ted rather than by n payment
out of the general fund. The agita
tion of the matter has resulted in call
ing the attention of the council to it ,
nnd the aldermen hnvo been giving
it some thought. As n result
the council has instructed the
city attorney and judiciary
committee to prepare nn ordinance ,
providing for aVrcet improvement be
ing thus made , nnd it will doubtless
be presented nt nn early dny.
The change is n most important one ,
nnd will naturally cause much dis
cussion. Heretofore when n street
has boon tilled , or a side walk filled
up to grade , or any improvement of
that kind needed , the city has paid
for the came out of the general fund ,
thus letting the burden fall alike on
all tax payers , whether directly beno-
fitted or not. It ia urged in support
of the change that those whoso prop
erty is directly benefited by uuch im
provement should be willing to pay
for them , and that is unjust for those
whose property lies at u distance , to
lielp pay for work which simply in
creases thn vnluo of some other prop
erty.
It is further urged that many more
improvements will bu made. The
residents on any street will not need
, ' o wait until thcro is money in the
general fund , or until the council
ihoosRS to order work done , but can
jy securing a majority to a petition ,
iavo the improvement go on and
; ho 'cost ( axed to the property
whoso vnluo is thus increased.
An illushv.tio.i ia given. Ono man
3Uya n wntury lot , nt an equally low
nnd watery price. It is hardly fair
'or the city nt largo to p.iy for im-
tfovomonta to make this a valuable
ot } and lot him have the benefit of
the rise in valuation thereby.
There is also n question of present
expediency. There nro a number of
persons who are nnxious to got the
sidewalks filled up to grade. In some
cases the street has been filled , the
lots have been filled and the sidewalk
eft low , making almost a ditch ,
and in some cases being unsafe and
; ivin < r liability to suits for damage.
The city has no money to fill these
sidewalks to grade. If the now ordi-
lance is passed they will bo obliged
o do EO at their own expense , and the
city will bo relieved of a big burden.
There will bo some objections and
n-otcsts. Some of these property
owners just referred to will doom it
unjust to have to pay for filling the
sidewalks in front of their houses ,
after having paid their share of taxes
'or filling in sidewalks in which they
tad no interest. The oildet to this is
ho fact they will hereafter bo free
from having to pay toward other im
provements which do not concern
them immediately. At present it may
seem n hardship , but in the long run
it will not prove so , nn immunity
from taxation for the benefit of other
property will in the course of yearn
prove no slight relief.
Such are some of the reasons urged
For the change , but the chief rcuson
presented is that it will relieve the
city of n great burden. The tax for
general purposes is limited at ten
nilla , nnd this will notaufiico to mnko
needed impioyuuonts. Under the
change , if any improvement is wanted
the ovvnor of the property immediate
ly concerned can hive it , und as they
will got repairs by increased valuation
; hey can ntlord te pay for it , and
, liono who are not getting any benefit
will bo relieved from bearing the bur
den. The city will find itself in po-
aession of necosawy means for repairs
nnd for the expenses which naturally
fall to it.
Not Cunning1 Enough.
Hon. Eli Clayton's name was yes
terday brought forward , as promi
nently as the Nonpareil could brintr
it forward , as a worthy person to rep
resent this district in congress. Many ,
oven among those who might prefer
some other man for congress , will join
hoattily in all the praise bestowed on
this worthy man , but the Nonpareil
is , as usual , consistent only in its own
inconsistency. Not long ago the
Nonpareil abused this srmo gentle
man as severely ns its puny strength
permitted , and why'/ / Because Mr.
Clnjton , as chairman of the board of
county supervisors , objected to the
Nonpareil charging nil uorta of fancy
prices for public printing , and un
earthed its greed as the present coun
cil is now doing in regard to the city
printing. Now the Nonpareil urges
him for congress , and has tlmchuokto
say that "it does so in no spirit of in
sincerity. " The Nonpnroil cannot
hoodwink the public na pasily as it
thinks. The sudden Hoiaeraault lini
a reason , nnd the renoon ia plain. It
thinks that by dividing up the oppo
sition into factions , icc.vn draw away
strength from Hon. W. P. Sapp ,
whom it hates bitterly , and can cause
not only his defeat , but that of Mr.
Clayton and others , andean thus manage
ago to run in some pet candidate of
its own. The animus of the whole
mnttor ia shown by its frequent side-
ulaps nt Mr. Sapp as "a demagogue"
nnd "a "
self-constituted candidate ,
The dny is past when The Nonpareil
can thus garb its trickery under the
declaration that it ncta "in no spirit of
insincerity , " without being unmasked.
An one key to the situation , and us a
very probable cause for the appear-
anne of the editorial referred to , it is
well to note that umong the "person
als" in the game issue appeared the
fact that "Mayor" A. R. Anderson
was in the city. The "Major" nnd
"Col. " Chapman were in consultation
in the evening. The former } ms an
itching for the honors. Did lie fur
nish the plan of the farce , and did
the laltir try to play HI ' Perhap. "
A MODEL STABLE.
Some of the Improvements Mode by
Mason Wise , the Liveryman. .
In his joumcyings about yesterday ,
a BEK reporter dropped in nt Mason
Wise's livery , feed and sale stable ,
and cast nn eye over the improve
ments which hnvo been made. The
old buildings nro quite upacioua , well
arranged , nnd the stock excellent and
well kept , but ilr. Wise not content
with his former accommodations , has
built a largo brick stnblo 33 by 100
feet in extent. Below nro stalls nnd
other conveniences for the proper
care of horses , and above is a loft so
spacious that fifty-Bovcn tons of hay
can bo stowed nwny there nt ono time.
A well has been sunk , furnishing an
abundnnt supply of excellent water ,
and there is nothing wanting in ntiy
of the appointments nnd conveniences
of n first class stable. The accommo
dations as thus enlarged , nro ample
for caring for ono hundred nnd fifty
horses , making ono of the largest and
best fitted establishments for livery ,
board nnd sale business in the whole
west.
Between the now stable nnd the j
other , ia a Inrgo ynrd , where THE BUB ]
reporter spied a numerous army "of |
kickers. " There were nbout forty
mules enjoying life hero , nnd they
seemed happy , as they on ht to be ,
for abundance of feed nnd wnter was
nt their disposal , the nrrnngo'nonts
for dealing it out to them being per
fect. Mr. Wise has bought and sold
a great many mules , and those spied
there yesterday wore certainly ex
cellent onca in bizo nnd build as to
easily acohtmt for the tready sales
which Mr.vViso moots with.
The stablca and sheds now form a
complete horse shoo , with two en
trances on Scott street , near Brand-
way , this being in a most convenient
tocatian. Within the horse shoo
of buildings is the ynrd. A more com
plete and convenient establishment
33uld not bo planned our , nnd the en
terprise shown by Mr. Wise , together
with his long experience ntid long ac
quaintanceship , entitles him to the
success which ho is winning.
The attention of THK BEE reporter
w.is called to handsome turnout which
makes its headquarters nt Wise's , and
which ia owned by Senator George T.
Wright. The team is n pair of hand
some brown horses , fine steppers , well
built and nicely matched. Mr. Wright
purchased them of Mr. Wise for $500.
i'ho covered bugo-y is ono of Hntton-
lauor'o best , and with a fine harness ,
the turnout is ono equal to any in this
part of the country.
A GOOD MAN GONE.
A man went astray nnd allowed
linmelf to bo induced to buy a pair of
shoddy shoes. The doctors disagreed ;
ono said it was lock jaw , and three
said the sheet iron counters , pine
board insoles and rusty nails in his
shoes produced the fatal disease ,
which shall bo nameless here ; ( wa
don't know how to spell it and only a
doctor can pronounce it ) but- the
moral is , buy honest made shoes , if
; hey do cost a few cents more per
> air , and live long and comfortable.
JUT boots and shoes are the best wo
can got made.
