Nix. EDToE.-The late grab made by the
republicans upon the city treasury, of near.
" $500 for services not rendered by their
city attorney, should admouish democratic
aldermen 10 be more vlgiaut in protecting
the treasury. suppose, If they had moved
to lay Jackson's bin on the table until II
could be properly investigated, aud called
for the yeas and nays on that motion, the
result would have been the same-but this
slpposition does not excuse them for not
having done so. The proposal to allow the
bill without giving time for investigation
was irregular, and should have been resist
ed. Cannot our aldermen see that, if they
had made such motion, and called for the
yeas and nays, they would have compelled
Roseuheld, Shaw, HAYES and Spencer TO 90
upon the record on the question? If they
voted against the motion they would place
their party in bad fix. just so of Muir
dock. The democrats lacked tact and skill
in the matter--or quickness Of perception /;
and it is to be hoped that the new aldermen
will be more wide awake and vigiant No
bill should be allowed (uness there ls some
very extraordinary reason for It, and every
alderman kHocs it to be right without first
being referred to the finance committee. II
should altcdyS lie over until the next meet
ing; undergo careful examination, and
come back with the written Endorsement of
the committee. And even then, any alder
man who doubts its business should give his
reasons for opposing it, and demand the
yeas and nays on its passage, Republicans,
by such tricks as they played on Monday
evening are expected to seize upon the
peoples money whenever they can; but
democrats ought to be sharp enough to al
ways defeat such schemes.
EYE OPEN.

ton for getting Jackson's bill allowed ? The
extreme anxiety Of the republicans to rush
it through without examination and before
the democrats came into power, looks rs
though there wAs something wrong about it,.
