The people also take a great interest in the welfare of the public schools. It has fourteen large school buildings and an excellent corps of teachers Four additional buildings are in course of construction. All the buildings are large and beautiful.

As an evidence of the progressive and energetic spirit of the people it need only be cited that in establishing their public works they brought the water over thirty miles to the place and the system for dis tributing the supply is of the most approved kind There has been one great drawback to the city for years, but the prospects for doing away with it are of the most encouraging character For the past fi vo years there has been much complaint by the people against 1 he smoke aiising from the smelters in the vicinity of the city. Various plans for abating the nuisance have been suggested and finally one has been adopted. It provides for the erection at each smelter of a steel stack 500 feet high, which will throw the smoke above the level of the roofs in the city.
