JSj next Tuesday you will again have the opportunity of saying whether you favor a new jail cr T'hether vou favor sending Bates county prisoners to Clinton, Nevada and Harrisonville. The proposition this time is plain and simple, the court asks you to vote 12$ cents on the one hundred dollars and they promise to build Bates county a $10,000 substantial jail. There will be no bonds, the tax will be direct. nd no man who pays taxe6 on one undred dollars worth of property will feel the l'2i cents additional ax. In short the jail will be built and no tax payer will know that it as cost hiin a cent. This is not a iarty issue, it is a question ot pure economy ana every man in iates county should vote for the proposi ion. The jail is built to protect le law abiding citizens from the icious and wicked vote for the ail and let us have a good substan tial building of our own to retain the criminals of this county.

A special session of the City Coun cil was held Tuesday night of last week, to consider the feasibility of submitting the question of Water, Gas aud Electric light works for Butler. The onlv proposition sub mitted for the condideration of the Council, was that ot Dr. Betz. in which it was agreed to put in three plauts at a cost to the tax-payers o fifty eight hundred dollars per year The Council after considering the matter, bv a unanimous vote decid ed to accept the Doctors ordinance aud the same was put to its first reading. At its second reading the necessary amendments will be made by the Council, and should changes made by the Couucil be acceptable to the Doctor, the ordinance will be put to its final reading aud passage at the first regular meeting of th Council in November. After which the ordinance will be published an submitted to a vots of the people Provided the proposition receives the sanction of the people, then Dr Betz, proposes to put up one thou sand dollars without reserve as guarantee of good faith that he wi comtlv with the dictates of the ordinance. Fiftv eight hundred dollars a vear looks like a very stiff price for the tax payers of Butler to rav for water and light, and in our opinion it will take some pretty fa financiering on the part of the coun cil to figure out just how (withou materially raising the taxes) they ) would be able to meet the expense and keep up the actual aud necessary running expences of the city govern- j ment.

Since the passage of the McKinley bill the state has been given the benefit of wide publication of manufacturers' circulars, notifying dealers of in creased prices, owing to increased tariff.
