To-day there It another of the many
elections that have boon hold In the city
during the past six months. The election
to-day Is on the voting of bonds for
Btonn water sowcrngo nnd the granting
of a franchise to the Capitol UolghtH
Btreot railway company. Opinion upon
HID storm water sewerage question is di
vided , much of the division arising , ns
Jieretoforo staled , over the paving con
troversy. The opponents of sewerage
have had the city papers to express their
nontlmcuta. Thn Democrat is opposed to
thorn on the ground of making all public
improvements of that character taxed up
h to abutting property. The Democrat.fa-
W vored , on the paving question ? having
the intersections ptxving paid for by the
property of the immediate vicinity. Its
course is much more consistent than the
Journal' ? , which appears to bo following
the dictations of a paving company. Mr.
C. C. Burr has given public reason why
/ the bonds should bo voted and a petition
f lias been published against that seems
to bo backed by the residents who nro
not interested in the business part of the
city. In the election the question ot
franchise for the street railway will not
be opposed , the interest all centering in
the sewer bond question.

public Inclination for news not only Iron
the particular point , Kearney , but ai
. . opinion concoruiuc mo state as well
V with which Mr. Frank is extensively ao
quamtcd as a man of moans and busl
f ness , the question , "Do you intend tc
etop long in the city ? " was put dircc
K anil as promptly responded to by Mr
Frank saying : "No , but I would vorj
much like to do so , as it is just two yean
K. this month since I was last hero. " Con
r * * tinuinc Mr. Frank said : "I was mucl
Biirprisod and ] > leased to note the progrcs
fi , nnd great change made since I was las

F pleased at the results accomplished am
V. procrcss mado. 1 was not prepared t <

The same results will follow hero h
Lincoln to your advantage , and over ;
A good citizen in the state feels an intcres
A in tholr capital city and are pleased a
V the city's iulvuncumo.it. "
"Hut how about Kearney ? " wa
! queried. "On this question,1' said Mi
W Frank"I can hardly trust myself ti
' ' speak , but I eau modestly say wo wil
keep up with the procession. " To illustrate
trato this , for a few days past the quei
tion of electric lights ( wo have good ga
works ) was discussed by our people , an
last Monday evening our council passe
an ordinance granting the Kearney cann
company a twenty-year franchise for a
electric power light and heating con :
- Pany. The ordinance was signed c
10:30. : Before 11:30 : the now compan
> had uiado a contract with the Thompsor

the entire plant , to bo put in and in rut
ning order before July 13 , and before 1
o'clock the same night the agent wire
( or the shipment of all material , and tfa
next day the material was on the road
That day , also , all the lights were er
_ ff gaged to the full capacity of the plan
M and negotiations are commenced fc
K _ double the number. "All this In twont ;
| ( our hours , " said Mr. Frank , outhusia.
[ i tlcolly , "and this business called me t
S Lincoln at this time. " In regard to th
water power at Kearnev bv means of th
V canal now completed , Mr. Frank is conf
dent the power is to work & complel
change In the Industries' the whole
central part of the state , and the
whole state Is to bo benoflttcd
by the up-building of a manufacturing
city in its very centre. When Mr. Frank
was discussing Kearney , he said ho was
in doubt as to which he felt the greatest
interest in Kearney or the state itsulf , for
in his opinion both had a great futuro.
He recited the beauty of the location the
mngnifieient now hotel , the city's school
fncmtloi , the newspapers , the water sup
ply and drainage , the street railway , the
state Institution , there ending with an
invitation of the most cordial character
to come and see the city of Kearney.

this omission yesterday , as it took from
Conroy's side of the case evidence of im
portance to him , nnd evidence which
locomotive engineers prefer to sco used
rather than omitted.

How President Cleveland la
.nnd haying Avrny $3GOOO a Vcnr.
Cincinnati Commorcinl-Gazctto : Prev
ious to the second term of General Grant
tlio salary of the president of the United
States , from Wnshincton down to that
tnno , had been $23,000 n yenr , with i\
limited fund for contingent expenses
which did not exceed $1,000 per nnnuni
during Mr. Lincoln's term. In 1873 It
was raised to f50,000 ; a year. This in
creased salary wns appropriated with the
expectation that It would bo applied to
public purposes in connection with tliu
presidency , nnd not for the private
pocket of the Incumbent.
All the presidents , with rare excep
tions , have accepted tills construction of
the law , and they have almost uniformly
used the salary In otlorlnjr the hospitality
of the white honso to senators and repre
sentatives , the judiciary , the diplomatic
body , and distinguished strangers who
were entitled to such recognition. This
has been the conventional rule , and any
exception to it has justly provoked com
ment. Mr. Cleveland may bo described
as a professional advocate of retrench
ment and reform. This subject is the
burden of his speeches , of his political
essays in the form of frequent letters to
conspicuous mugwumps and others.
He receives $50.000 In salary and ? 9,000
regularly for contingent oxwenscs of the
executive olllce. In addition thereto
congress voted for the next ensuing liscal
year : Private secretary , f3,2riO ; assistant
secretary , $2.250 ; three executive clerks
at sf2,000 each ; two clerks of njass 4 at
! ? 1SOO each ; ono clerk of class 3 , at $1,500 ;
one clerk of class 2 , who shall be a tele
graph operator , at $1,400 ; steward at
$1,800 ; oii-j usher at sf 1,400 ; four messen
gers at f 1,200 each ; live doorkeepers at
! f 1,200 each ; ono watchman at § 000 , and
one fireman atiJSOl.
The executive mansion and stables are
lighted , heated , repaired , furnished with
water and all other couveniencics , and
tlio green houses , which provide llowers
for decoration , are maintained by annual
appropriations averaging about $0,000 in
round numbers. Then comes nnnthcr
yearly item , us follows : "For care , re-
palrand refurnishing the executive man
sion , $10.000 , to bo expended by contract
or otherwise , as the president may do-
determine. "
It thus seems that the president is free
from all outlay except the actual pro
vision for his small household. The ques
tion is naturally asked , How docs he dis
pose of the largo income appropriated by
congress ? Thut inquiry may bo easily and
positively answered , because the facts are
notorious at Washington.
Mr. Cleveland has utterly diregarded
the nearly uniform practice of his prede
cessors by neglecting to invite members
of congress to the executive table. When
the diplomatic corps was compulsorily
dined , a few members of the committees
of foreign all'airs were asked to meet
them. And when the nine justices of the
supreme court were compulsorily dinod.a
few members of the judiciary were asked
to meet them. This is about all the hos
pitality , with perhaps some individual
exceptions , the president has oll'ored to
congress , and it is nearly the limit as to
others. This management has excited
much anil deserved criticism , compared
as it is with the accustomed liberality of
former presidents.
He has not even recognized the costly
civilities extended to him by the citizens
of the District of Columbia on dill'ercnt
occasions. The inauguration ball cost
about $50,000 , and was carried out on n
scale which surpassed all previous ex
perience , and gave a new idea of Jeftor-
sonian simplicity. The gentlemen who
voluntarily planned and managed that
magnillccnt compliment , nnd devoted to
its success their labor for months , then *
money , and their influence , socially as
well as politically , including conspicuous
republicans and democrats , have been
entirely ignored. Not ono of them has
over been invited to dine at the wliitu
house.
The so-called receptions of the presi
dent and Mrs. Cleveland do not cost a
dime to their private purse. The light * ,
the llowors , and music , the servants , and
the decorations are all at the expense of
the people iu the shape ot appropriations ,
which are scattered through various ac
counts of congress , and are but little
known to the public atlargo. The guests
on those occasions are divided into
classes , some of the receptions being by
card , and others with open doors for the
unwashed democracy , who are not oflbrcd
even a glass of water.
Mr. Cleveland's interpretation of "re
trenchment and reform" is to make Imy
while the sun shines , and to swell his
bank account by largo savings from the
salary of president. Tliu best informed
persons who have had experience in and
knowledge of expenditures in the white
house estimate the president's outlay for
all purposes as not exceeding $1fi,000 per
annum. This is the known sum he sets
aide for living. His donations are all
reported , and they speak for themselves.
At the close of his term the 4th of
March , 1889. Mr. Cleveland will probably
be richer by much more than $100,000 ,
without reckoning interest on his accu
mulations or counting the assessed value
of his country venture , than when ho
entered the white house. In plain nnd
true terms , he lias made a bonanza of the
presidency , and given no small share of
his oflicial career to money-making.
"Hope on , hope ever. " How many
delicate ladies there are who , while they
attend to their daily duties , do so with
aching heads , a sense of fulness , pain in
the back and depressed spirits , who are
"only keeping about , " as the phrase is.
Sonic day they "go into a decline" and
leave their children motherless. To such
we would say , "Cheer up. " Timely usn
of Dr. Picrco's "Favorite Prescription"

nesses nnd kindred affections easily ,

over the rapid growth of the iron indus
try of the south. Many Pcnnsylvamans
who have been down south have spoken
so flatteringly of its advantages that this
alarm is not to oe wondered at. Even Mr.
Kollov himself , the warmest and sturdiest
advocate and friend of the Keystone
stato. was compelled to admit his fears
that Alabama could make pig iron moio
cheaply than any , save the most favored
portions of Pennsylvania , and that the
manufacturers of the latter slate would
have to devote themselves more and
more to special iron industries in which
they excelled. Other Ponnsylvuniann
who came south , including owners of
furnaces or rolling mill plants , not only
reported in favor of Alabama , but act
ually moved their establishments to the
south , because it ofl'ored them greater ad
vantages in the raw materials than in
their own state.
So universally favorable have been
these reports that a number of the Pitts-
burg manufacturers who bad become
alarmed over the iron boom in the south ,
sent an agent down hero a short time
ago to investigate it carefully , to report
tlio absolute facts , and whether thov had
anything to fear. This agent , Mr. T. K.
McKnight , reports as follows :
"Tho fever to build in those states is
almost unparalleled. Capitalist1 } from
the west , the north , and oven from Eng
land are rushing in building iron works
of every description , wherever they can
secure a foothold of available territory.
In the time 1 was there I heard of fifty
corporations with plans for building in
the near futuro. At West Nashville nlono
there were thirteen , among1 which were
bolt works , iron furnaces and steel
works. Some time ago' the town had a
public sale of lots for building purposes.
In two days it realized $385,009 , and that
town is but newly laid' out. The
West Nashville Steel , > Iron and Char
coal company is now building
two furnaces , with ar capacity ol
180 tons each. At Sheffield , Ala. ,
the Tennessee Coal & Iton railway com
pany is building n furoaco of 140 tons
capacity. The Sheffield jron company Is
building a furnace of 180 tons capacity.
At Anniston , Ala. , thoN6blo brothers are
building two furnaces. ' < At Woodstock ,
Ala. , the Iron companyof that name is
also building afurnaco.t At Birmingham
the Tennessee Coal and , , iron company ,
with a capital of $1,000,000 , is putting up
four now furnaces , with a capacity ol
900 tons a day. Chattanooga is to-daj
congratulating herselt 'On ' having the
first steel-rail mill m the south , It is
called the Roan iron company , and the
mill was put in operation last week. Al
Louisville the Union pipe company has
just erected a now cast-iron pipe works
Tills conveys but a faint idea of the
craze which is possessing capitalists to
invest m the southern iron business. The
country is literally alive with schemes. '
There is very little comfort in this foi
the Pennsylvamans ; lndcod.no "stronger
or more favorable report" has been made
in regard to the iron industry of the
south , and if it has any ofl'eot it will be
to send the Pennsylvania Iron maken
down hero by the hundred.
Comfort , convenience and safety. All
visitors to Boston will do well to remember -
bor the famous United States hotel
which covers these important items more
completely than any house in the coun
try ; Cut this out and go that'way.

BUCK WOLF !
Or Black Leprosy , | s a disease which Is considered
Incurable , but it has jlclded to the curative proper
ties of bwirr'g SrEcinc now known all over the
world ns S. 8. S. Sirs. Bailey , of Wcct Somervlllc ,
Mass. , near Boston , was attacked several years r-o
\\llh this hideous black eruption , and was treated by
the best medical talent , who could only say that the
disease was a tpccles of
rLEPROSY
nnd conccqaently Incurable. It Is Impossible to de
scribe her cuUcrlngs. Her body from tbe crown of
her head to tbo solcsof her feet was n macs of decay.
misses of flesh rotting off and leaving great cavities.
Her fingers festered and three or four nails dropped
OH at one time. Her limbs contracted by tbe fearful
nlceratloc , and for several years she did not leave
her bed. Her weight was reduced from m to CO Ibj ,
Perhaps some faint Idea of her condition can be
cleaned from the fact that three pounds of Cosmo-
Une or ointment were nscd per week In dressing hei
ore * . Finally tbe physicians acknowledged Ihclr
defeat by this Black Wolf , and commcodeu the sot-
lerer to fier all-wise Creator.
Her husband hearinc wonderful reports of tbo nM
of Bwirr'i iiriciric ( S. 8. B. ) , prevailed on her to
try It as a last resort. Bhe began Its nso under pro
test , but teen found that ber system was bclnc rr-
llcvedof the poison , as tbe sores assumed a red ana
healthy color , u though the blood vas becoming
pure and active. Mrs. llalley continued the S. H. b ,
until list February ; every sore was healed ; f he dis
carded chair and crutches , and was for the first time
in twelve years a well woman. Her husband , Mr ,
C. A. Bailey , Is In business at 11X Blacketono btrect ,

of this wonderful cure. Bend tons f or Treatise oa
