How ARE You Now Certain democrats
who voted for Murdoch, Shaw and Spencer,
declared over and over again, both before
and after they SO voted, that neither OF these
men would go for an exclusively radicalset Of
city officers. They declared that these men
would not vote to turn out Chopper, nor
Barnes, nor Higgins, nor Taylor, nor La
mont, nor Andy Huffman, nor Engel, nor
). NJ Buford, nor any other good man. They
had promised not 20 do so. One enthusias-
tic Murdoch man even went SO far as to tell us
that, If it rested upon Murdock's vote to de-
eide who should be city printer he would
vote for the ARGUS instead of the radical
paper. He said Murdoch was a secession.
ist, Pendleton man, and had voted oftener
with the democratic party than with the re.
publican, and that he was warm personal
friend of the ARGUS, and didn't like the I'm.
ION at all. What is the result? In every
case where Murdoch got a chance he voted
to cut off the heads of democrats. and elect
ed the most bitter and rampant radicals.
What now do they think of radical promises,
or radical harness, or radical gratitude? S:

THE MAYORS COMMUNICATION, though
covering good deal of space, will seriously
disappoint those who looked for recemmen.
dations of extended and, as they claimed be-
fore election, much needed mprovements.-
He commences by recommending that the
streets and alleys be cleaned, because he is
afraid of the cholera. Every mayor does
that, every year. He don't recommend the
purchase Of any steam fire engines. He hits
the Board of Education hefty wipe, and
says they ought to have better streets in the
ward he lives in. but don't recommend that
anything be done anywhere. He thinks it
important to have "a careful, conscientious
assessor-who will assess the rich and poor
alike" We "reckon" the poor would object
to this, if "alike'' means the same sum to
each. He says saving might be made by
abolishing the Office of sidewalk supervisor.
In this he is mistaken, as that officer never
received any pay from the city, except it
was assessed upon and collected from those
whose sidewalks he built. He thinks good
| - WA - iSos W HdNlbk aEoehct
bridge tender on the Camden side. So do
we. He closes by sugar coated pill to the
people about the horse railroad which NAV
be construed to mean anything you please.
He says the Moline concern SHOULD have
| such privileges extended to it as will ensure
its early completion" This may mean ex-
elusive rights on all the streets it wants, and
pay from the city treasury to build it. He
then SAYS at should not be allowed to pos
| sess the use of all the streets, to the detri-
ment of other enterprises of a like charac-
ter" The concern don't ask for sail the
streets'-it only asks that no other company
shall be allowed to travel over the streets
which it does ask for,-and that is just what
the council should not grant to any COM
pany. But the new Mayor very gingerly
avoids saying whether he is for or against
| this idea. sre
If the people can find any positive recon-
mendation Of any kind in the message, ex-
cept to clean up the streets, they will do bet
ter than we can. Is that all the progress
and improvement the radical party has to
otter? Here is what he says:
81 would recommend the work of cleaning the
| streets and alleys soon as the weather permits
| as there are many men who have been idle ali
the winter who viii find work elsewhere. and who
VIII DO glad to obtain present employment, whose
families greatly need the compensation they will
| obtain"
That IS all the labor offered to those who
4 need employment. In effect IL is this -

and beat your own friends shall have few

ried last night. This is nothing strange,
for people will marry, whether school keeps
or not" The calathumpians have no rever-
ence for this sacred institution, however, and
were out in full force, with choice orches-
ira of bells, gles,drums, pans, and horse
fiddles. Night was rendered hideous in the
superlative degree. If the young man SUM
bered any, it was more than we could have
done. The clash and clatter continued
until a late hour. Every one of the rowdies
should have been lodged in Jail.

DRAWN Our.-The little steamer VIM. Fl.
Thompson, which has been lying in critical
condition in the slough for many weeks,
hedged in with ice, and filed with wa.er, has

will be shortly ready for Sturgeon Bay, or
any other sporting locality.

OLD SEEDs.-Did ever anybody see such
proportion of chronic ofhce-seekers as sue
coed in getting places under the new radical
rule in this ciiy7 Of course it was very
proper that that old "court house barnacle, y
Mclaughlin, should have place. The pub-
he have supported him in Office, for the last
twelve years, and probably will have to do
so for the balance of his days-and find him
stoves besides. Then there is that ssloyar'
and patriotic individual, John Lusk. who
never performed days labor in his life, if
he could get chance to attend the court
house or jury room door. He ought to be
supported by the public. Several othe,
seeds" and persons affected with chronic
laundering after Office deserve notice-bui
we haven't room to attend to them to day.

HUNGRY-The pressure upon the radlca !
members of the city council for Office, by
those who think that if they vote the ticket
they are entitled to pay, was absolutely ap
palling. 1t was not till yesterday afternoon
that they could agree on their ticket-and
now comes one general howl from the dis
appointed. The broken promises of the
newly elected radicals stare them in the
face at every corner.

BARBER-ous.-Thef food was no respector
of persons but overhowed the Just as well as
the unjust. Of course Charley fishers shop
was ''plum full, up to the street, and every
thing ahoat. But his shaving and shampoo
ing establishment is all right now, and Char
ley is ready to wait upon his numerous friends
and customers with all the politeness of a
French dancing master.

DANGERous.-The covering to the Jeffer-
son street sewer has rotted out, and near the
foot of the street has fallen through, leaving
dangerous holes in the street 1t will have
to be taken up and relaid, either with timber
or stone-and should be done a. once.
