Buriingame is talking big now, and passing

committed suicide few days since on the
Dubuque road few miles from Davenport
He was an Englshman and had paid his ad-
dresses to a lady who refused him. In des-
peration he sought to take her life, but fail

afterwards he sent for doctor, but he ar
rived too late to save his life.

The STREET COMMISSIONER, The Dem
ocrat Of yesterday contains an article ex-
culpatory Of our Street Commissioner, Civ
ing him credit for not regarding the wishes
of his fellow citizens in the improvements
he has made. The editor thinks, or rather
says, tina that official has improved our
streets in judicious manner Now we
should like to know what has been done ja-
diciously. Was it iudlcious to cut that ra'
vine back of the bluff, taking the dirt to MI
ND his own lots and etlectuaIIy cutting oil
all communication between Harrison and
Brady streets Waa it judlciona TO make
that deep cut in the rear Of Ill. II. Smith'5
residence Was it ludcious 10 make such
wretched piece OF work at the corner OF
Fourth and Rock Island streets when Mr.
Cook offered to furnish the plank gratis for
building good culyert We might null
tiply examples, but having specified these
will our Contemporary mention single i'm
proyemeat that may atrictly be term ID judi.
ciou., that the Commissioned has underta-
ken of hia own accord Perhaps he may
regard the money laid out Oh Harrison st.
as judiciously expended. II may he, so far
as the Street Commissioner personal in
tereets are considered, but not as respects
the interests OF the city. Perhaps, at the
same time, our neighbor can enhghten us
in regard to the farce now being acted up
on Iowa street Why, after having dug
down that street several feet, men are now
engaged 10 filing it up l. this also ia ac-
cordance with the requireme nts Of an ord.
nance passed by the City Council, OF does
the Commissioner do it of hig own free
will
Seriously, we are not disposed to fnd
fault with Mr.. Mackintosh he is but obey
ing the law Of aelfinlerest, a Characteristic
of human nature the blame properly at
taches to those voters who elected to the
Office OF Street Commissioner man who
had SO much property to improve. II ls
ear-bought experience, but if it teaches
them to be more guarded in future in this
particular, the money expended loosely
may not be altogether wasted.
