A large and respectable number of voters attended the meeting, listened to the report, and with slight amendmont passed @ resolution favoring tho submission of a bond proposition under the terms of the re- port, that was adopted by the council. The printed report of the ordinance passed for the submission of $1,500,000 city bonds to be designated ‘‘electric light and water- works bonds” bears buv little resemblance to the council's revort considered at the nass meeting, In fact that report has boen ignored and an upparent new scheme is presented, There 1s nothing specific pre- sented in the ordinance now rll lfio hands of the mayor except a proposition that the voters shall authorize the issue of $1,500,- 000 bonds for electric light and water plant purposes. No provision is made for a commission contemplated in the previous report. No manner is pro- vided forsecuring said plants,whether by con- struction or purchase of existing plants. No regulations for the investment of the funds. No time is specified when such undertakings shall be commenced or finished. No pro- vision that the bonds shall be void if not used within a given time, In fact, the propo- sition 1s 80 general that it may be construed or the proceeds be used in almost any man- ner the present or any future council may de- termine by ordinance, without regard to the interests of the voters and without protec- tion to them should & council so will it. It would seem from the terms of the pflmlu\m pending that the canal project I ne glimmering or was only intended for electioneering purposes. This may do for the present, but the in- terests of the taxpayers and the enterprise itself should not be jeopardized in any vague or uncertain way.

HASTINGS, Oct. 2.—[Special to Tug Bge.]— The independents of the city and county held their primaries to elect delegates to the county nowmating convention Saturday night. In the city the delegates chosen areal- most unanimously anti-fusion, ana some of the county precincts ire the sime way. The rumor afloat that the democrats will place a full ticket in the field and then attempt to scaro the independents into endorsing two or three of the democratic slate has excited some of the indopendents, aud they say that as surely as a motion is made to endovse two of vhe democratic ticket it will be followed by motions to endorse two of the republican and two of the prohibition tickot, and then to appoint 4 committee to hunt up some other party to endorse. The outlook for fusion is not as encouraging as it was a week dgo. One of the populists who has been en- deavoring to complete the fusion, in fact the most prominent, was let out of his delega- tion Saturday night, and will have 1o watch the fray from the strangers’ gallery.

Judge Gardner hus recently been complimented by the republicans of his d trict, being renominated for the bench on the first ballot by the"unanimous vote of the convention, Speaking of the situation in Nebraska, Judge Gurdoer said to a Bee reporter: d “We have had just such a struggle in South Dakota, buti‘succeeded in renomi- nating the old bench: This was a dacided victory for thd people in that state and a vindication of purity on the bench, I sin- cerely hove that Judge Maxwell will be re- nominated by the repbblicans of Nebraski, and in saying this Livoice the sentiment of tbe bar and bench of the northwest. Judge Maxwell is certainly & prominent figure in western jurisprudense=—a fine lawyer, and has delivered some stwong opinions.

WasniNGTox Buneat or Tnr Dee, 513 FOURTRENTH STREET, |+ Wasitisaroy, Oct. 2. | “There will be a compromise, - The repenl bill before the senate will be amended and adoptea. This may not come under two or threo wecks yot, but ftis the inevitable result. 1t is almost ridiculous, to my mind, to talk about passing the bill in its prosent stape This is what Senator Manderson said to Tur Ber gorvespondent this afternoon re- ferring to the outlook of *the bill to uncon tionally repeal the silver purchasing act Senator Manderson occupies a position on the silver question which, taken in connec- tion with his oxperience and close personal relations with senators upon both sides of the subject, enables him to oxpress an opinion especially valuable. It i not Ly id Senator Manderson, “‘that, as has been announced in the New York newspapers, 1 have boen busying my- self on the republican side of tho senato to secure u compromise. -1 thero is to bo compromise it must first meet the approval of President Cloveland and then bo sub- mitted on the democratic side of the house. What I have said_about compromise was to democratic sonators. Must Be Manazed by Democrat “1t will be in especially bad taste for re- publicans to seek a compromise. Congress was called togethor in extraordinary session by a democratic president to unconditionally ropeal the silver law, and he has at his back a decisive mafority in both branches of the national legislature. The conduct of this bill is by democrats, and whatever its fate may be it will be due to democratic manage- mont. Therefore, any compromise must be presented to the senate on the democratic side of the chamber. Individually, I favor a compromise. 1 would provide for the adop- tion of a bill repealing the purchasing clause or the Sherman act and at the samo time creating u law which would enable tho sc retary of the treasury, at his discroticn, to sell bonds for the purpose of replenishing or increusing ttie gold reserve. ‘The_ bill would also provide for the coinage of 50,000,000 or 60,000,000 outces of silvi in the treasury into subsidiary money. bill would also provide for the purchase of 200,000,000 o 00,000,000 ounces more of silver bullion as a commercial commodity and to be represented by the issuance of certificates. But there should be u definite time fixed, and that not vory far aistaut, when the pur- chase of silver by the government, for any purpose whatever, would stop.” This proposition of Senator Manderson's meets with much favor. O 's Postoflice, Senator Manderson and Representative Mercer called today upon Secretary Carlisle and a conference ensued in which & final d mination of the Omaha federal building question was reached. Both of the Nebraskarepresenta- tives stated to the secretary that they desired granite used in the superstructure aud the contract to be awarded at the earliest possible day. Secretary Carhisle said he had come to the conclusion, after consulting with Supervi ing Architect O'Rourke, that it would be better, even though the appropriation would not admit of dressing and carving the gran- ite, to do that work after the mater- 1l was .. pub in the wall and to use it in the rough. This agreed upon, the secretary said he would see Architect O'Rourke, and that the contract would be awarded this week. The contract, he said, would go to Drexel & Son of Om: whose bid on granite was the lowest. Colorado pink granite will be used instead of Minne- sota_granite, as the Colorado product is the lighter in color and handsomer. South Dakota's Hatchery. Senator Pettigrew today made inquiry at the headquarters of the fish commission about the anticipated report which is to be made upon the investigation into the feasi- bility of establishing a fish hatchery in the region of Hot Springs or Spearfish, S. D. Tho senator secured an appropriation of $1,000 in the last congress for the purpose of making an investigation with the view to hatching fish in southwestern South Dakota and supplying the streams thereabouts and the investigation was completed some time ago. p’IIO was informed today that the attache of the commission who made the investiga- tion wus now in Tennessee and would not return fo the city under some weeks. He also learned that the report upon the South Dakota investigation will be, made to con- gress some timo this winter, together with the, result of other kindred investigations. Senator Pettigrew is confident that the fish commission will recommend the establish- ment of a fish hatchery either at Hot Springs or Spearfish, where the conditions are faverable on the report is made to congress he intends to make an effort to secur iati 3 The senator has taken o keen interest in the question of supplying the rivers and lukes of the great northwest with tish, and he sees no reason why South Dakota streams and es should not also be supplied by the government, and with this object the estab- lishment of a fish hatchery in the BlackHills will be u great convenience and saving of time and expenses. The question is one of great interest to northern Nebraska, as that section would have its water courses sup- plied with tish from the South Dakota hatch- cry. 4 Miscellaneous, The comptroller of the currency has becn advised that no assistant cashior of the Firsy National bank of Crete will be selocted in place of B, C.
