thias Krziiereer, in tendcrim: his
resiLrnati(iir a.s minister of finance,
based his action, it is said, upon a
desire to have the investiuution of
his allegedly lulsified tax returns
proiceed without preibdicc or con
sideration for bis official position.
Tho minister's retirenint and its ai
leired motive were completely eclips
ed by the character of evidence which

i. the supreme need. Tho city, in
realization of this want, proposes to
take active steps in ibis direction be
lore the summer shortnee is upon us.
Even at this early date Ashland creek
is at a low ebb. although there is
plenty for domestic, use. The irritru
tion period is what tests the system
and i hp ulan is to devise ways and
means for addiiur to the supply before
the critical time arrives, and thus
tide over the months of Julv, Aucust
and September. With this end in
view, a mass meetini: has been called
tor Saturday evcninir. February -3.
at the city ball, at which all interest
cd should attend, and this means
everybody. Professor Keiiner of the
experiment station, will speak, bis
talk beimr alonsr tbo lines of on im
perative, demand for water in behalf
of crons. Other speakers will ex
press opinions as to supplementing
the domestic supply, the expectation
bciatr that these discussions will re
sult in active efforts beinu taken
towards permanent, instead of merely
temporary relief. r
