, ditlons.

iitli-Place of playing the gnnie shall be-

decided by tossing.

Kindly understand that We are not do-

ing th ie because we feel that we -won ui.- fairly but simply in the interests of good sport and the carrying out of the league series.

THE annoys MAIL.

THE CITY LIGHTING-

Sir:-in regard to the Electric Light proposition now before the people it do -_s seem to mc to bc iiii open question whether some of the newspapers give expression to hon- cst conviction in tlie-interest of the popu- lace or paniier to those of capital at the expciisc of lcss wealthy and less active citizens.

This, with us. has always been a vexed

question. VVhen we voluntarily placed ourselves in the hands of the present con- tracting Light Co. wc did hope that all trouble would soon lic over, but, before long it was ii case of “Save us lroiii our friends" for the first cliuiiges eilecteri were in iiicreased rates. We can readily recall the wide-spread indignation that followed. Some niercharits were soincen- sed that they a_ppealcd to the Legislation for a charter to them as a Coiupnny that they might provide Electric Light inde- pendent of tnc denounced monopolists.

A change of sentiment, however, is|evi~

dent iii these people from wliiitever cause or influence, for their exertions have since been put forward in the direction of rc- ncwing the city light contract with this same Company. '

And noiv every day wc read ciTusious

from those interested, setting forth arguments against civic oivnersliips, ` and the papers not only open their columns to such but print editorials fiivoralile to them. Under these circumstances it is hard to reconcile the pretensions of the newspapers to “maintain the pcopie's rights," with their conduct. Even the object lesson we have in our excellent water system seems to be lost oii those who are acting either unthinkingly or unserupulously. Just now wc recall the able writings of the late Dr. McLeod and Mr. James Mc- Donald on the water works question and it redoimds to their honor tlint, imbued with honest patriotism. they did not weaken to' the opposition they met from even those in high places in thc profess- ions as well as from influential liiyiiien 'who attempted to bring our water supp- ly under thecontrol of a private company- We must _coiicede,. _ sir _ to you, ranch and the only credit

_d_uc to the - press iii regard to this

important ligiit question for you liiivc ably and honestly kept it before thc people and I do trust that the good sense

Chamber|ziin's Cough Remedy the Best Made-

" In my opinion Clianiberlaiifs Cough

Remedy is the best made for colds," says Mrs. Cora Walker, of Portervillc, Ciiii- fornia. There is no doubt, about its being the best. No other will cure acold so quickly. No other is so sure a prcventivc of pneumonia. No other is so pleasant and safe to take. Tlicsc are good reasons why it should be preferred to any other. The fact is that few people are satisiticd with any btlier after having oiicc_ use his remedy. For salc by all drugglsts
