It thus appears that the city is paying at
one bunk seven and eight per cent interest
ior the use Of n small portion Of its own
money, and is paying ten per cent at other
banks for tie use of money when it has
plenty Of its own in the hands Of the tCity
Treasurer.
Bear in mind That one gear ago certain
responsible banks offered to pay into tho
City Treasury four per cent interest on its
deposits, and to make temporary loans to
Tie city at Tie same rate Of interest, and
that the Offer Was rejected at the instign-
tion Of the Bame Ring who have renomi~
Lated Frnnk Wentworth for City Treasurer.
The scoundrelism Of this transaction Is
beyond the power Of words to depict.

enough money in bank to meet these liabil-
tiles. The moasy,M is tine, belongs TO
other city funds, but why, in the name Of

THE NECESSITY FOB REFORM At THIS

Do the people or Chicago reflect upon
the effect which the reelection Of the Ring
ticket will have upon the credit, the char
ucter, and the interests of Chicago? Let
them nsk Oh which side their hopes, wishes,
and interests would be il the people Of
New York city would lay aside for muni-
cipal election all party lines, and unite to
rescue that city md county t.om tho con-
troll Of the haspies aud blood-suckers who
have fastened upon it, md who hold in
sheir grip every Office, and every approach
to Office, IN that vast city. Would not
every honest mnn in the broad land, of
every party, rejoice at the prospect Of put
ting an end to the reign Of the terrible
dynasty which governs the commercial me
tropolis Of the country? Tue same feel
ing exists everywhere in regard to the
pending election in Chicago. Every man
who OWLS foot Of land, or contemplates
owning foot Of land, in Chicago, takes up
with horror the Chicago tax levy Ut 1st9-7O,

ADDRESS
Ia Tie 1vfer. cf tie County Of Cook ia,
H:k.x az ~ ..e.ix,a


The Convention which assembled ut Ii
brar3 Hail, On the l4th Of September,
to nominate ticket for city and county
officers, passed u resolution that "The
Republican party possesses the virtue, will,
and integrity to correct the evils aud reform
the abuses that are incidental to the exez-
else Of largely and widely-e1tended patron
age and power to greater degree thAn any
party OF faction which seeks to supe1sede
it." They also passed resolution stating
that the ticket nominated by them me1ited
their cordial aud united support.
We must, therefore, conclude that the
Republican party Was not represented in
that Convention; for, while admitting the
existence of evils and abuses in our local
affairs, they make 20 promise Of reform,
beyond tAat which is implied in turning
the public offices over to the same clique
who are responsible for the evils and
abuses complained Of. This, fellow-citi-
zens, we submit, is not in the nature Of a
vigorous reform. We believe that shorter
method can be fonrd to secuse tho results
which the Library Hall Convention pro-
fessed to deaire, but were unable to accom-
ylish.
In Initiating movement for this prr-
pose, it is we'll to ndvert to the mode md

What Sleep VIII do.

The cry for rest has always
been louder than the cry for
food. Not shat it Is more inn
portant, but it is often harder
to get. The best rest comes
from sound sleep. Of two men
or women, otherwise equal, the
one who sleeps the best will
be the most moral, healthy and
efficient.
Sleep will do much to cure
irritablllity of temper, peev-
ishness, uneasiness. 1t will
cure insanity. 1t will build
up and make strong a wesIy
body. 1t will do much to cure
dyspepsia, particularly that

a Warning to Husbands.


A lady in the Revolution
(Sisler Anthony's paper)
writes as follows:
"The great want of women
at present is money-money
for their personal wants, and
money to carry out their plans.
| propose that they shall earn
it, that they shall consider 1t
as honorable to work for mons
ey as for board; aud demand
for them equal pay for equal
work. l demand that the
bearing and rearing of chill.
dren, the most eXacting of EN-.
ployments, and involving the
most terrible of risks shall be
the best paid work in the
world; and that husbands shall
treat their wives with at least
consideration, and acknowl.
ekge them entitled 10 as much
money as wet nurses"
The meaning of this is that
wives are about to strike for
greenbaoks; so much dor every
baby born. No greenbacks-
no more sons and daughters.
No greenbacks-ho more pop.
ulation; no more boys to carry
forward the great enterprises
of the age. 1t is said that the
scale of prices for maternal
duties will appear in the Revo
luton next week. We give
he list in advance: Girl babies
800; boy babies, 5000: Twins
$500; twins, Tboth boys,) S4OO
triplets, $500; triplels, Gall
boyo,) $1,000. Terms: q. Q. D.
No credit beyond first child
The motto being, ~Pay up OF
dry up" Husbands who wish
to transmit their names to pos.
terity will please notice and
take a new departure.-Er.
