WE call attention to card in our adj
vertising columns from Mr.. Basgs, the
Union candidate for Superintendentof
the Water Works. II seems that there
have been some persons who We're en-
deavoring TO make head against the
Union ticket by representing That Mr..
Bagrs was not on that ticket by his
own consent, or from his perfect free
will and choice, and that MS he did not
care to be nominated so hewas perfect
" Indifferent as to an election. Mfr.
Bawgs puts all doubts and misrepresen-
tntions as to his position Mt rest by his
card. He is gratified to be the nominee
of the Union party, and itelected, as we
hope and trust he will be, will serve the
city TO the bestof his ability.
We call upon Union men in every
ward to rally to the support of the
acket-not OF any one or two men on
it,-but of the whole ticket. Let some
good and telling work be done every
day and every night from this until
sunset next Monday evening. There
should be meetings and consultations
as lEe1iuelltlS 10 HSSS4DAet anu llN hNtS-
rable means necessary to success should
be neglected. 3a aai4e elf5
A WRITER in the Chicago Tribune
urges steam communication with the
South from that city. He says grain
can be loaded there in canal boats and
be taken TO Richmond. Va, without
breaking bulk, by being lowed down
the Illinois and Mississippi, up the Ohio
and Kanawha, and through the canal
to Richmond, thus gaining a eominuniS
cation with the ocean, and escaping the
high prices demanded by the Eastern
shippers. The only difficulty we see
about the plan is that there Is no canal
from the Kanawha to Richmond.
THE name of the delegate nom Put

stead of John J. Taylor, as published

seNing-Mnchine Contest at allentown

From Me AiieRtotCn Daily NetDs
Pursuant TO agreement, the Florence and wilcox
& Gibbs agents met at Khne's Hal, on tuesday,
une f6, at / O'Clock f. NJ. BY request, the prosi-
dent OF the meeting held a wee previous-Mr E. ID.
Leisenring took the chair. The secretary read the
minutes of said meeting.
After some argument the Florence gent chose W.
II. Biumer, and the Wilcox & Glbos agent chose
Samuel McHose rs their judges and the two then
chosen selected e. d. LeIsenrnR their third jud
After a lengthy discussion a modus operdndi was
adopted the substance of which was that both ma
chimes should have their different points Of merit
Thoroughly and practically tested.
The Florence side opened by claiming asuperioTitH
for their locksttch contendlng aRainet this the
Wilcox & Gibbs sewed q stlalght seam along a
piece Of CLOTH and the Florence, with the same
thread and on the same piece OF goods, sewed a
paral el seam piece was then cut from this about
one inch IN width, and was handed to the judges,
who took hold and pulled. The Florence seam gdCe
tray, tchile the Wiucor & Gibbs held firm.
The Florence side then contended that it was
never required for their machines to sew such short
lenoths, and thereupon sewed another piece, and
knOtted the ends, when a general discussion took
place. The Florence side refused to practically test
the different points OF the machines but as it ap-
peared, wanted only to try their machine
The Wilcox g. Gibbs side did not yield from the
ground they occupied from the arst and the Flo
renee side not agreeing with them the trial was sus
pended aud the judges quietly left Before leaV'
ing they were asked whether the Florence
side had not acted justly throughout the
whole of the trial. The answer was that
the Judges had no decision to render. During the
discussion the Florence agents produced cheap
single.thread machine, which they stated was equal
TO the Wilcox & Gibbs machine Thus IL IS clearly
eyideat that all in the po1oer of the Florence side
done to bar the proceedings Of an honorable trial
The oIsa pointed crowd then dispersed.
