He came in with another attack on Gov

Colonel Noel concluded by thanking the
audience for their attention.
The band played the March to the
Cataract of the Ganges,' and then Mr.
Heidenhain arose and went forward to the
stand. Here arose a prolonged shouting,
principallyfrom the bad part of the assembly.
This continued so long and so boisterously
that the intention to prevent Mr.. Heden-
hahn from speaking soon became evident.
Mr. McDuff attempted to quiet the mob,
but without success Mr.. Heidenhain still
kept his ground but whenever he made
gesture of speaking, the outcry arose to
perfect storm.
Recorder HoughtOn now stepped forward,
but his voice was drowned in the roar.
Judge Sloanaker spoke few words, but he
succeeded no better.
Colonel Noel took the stand and be-
seeched the shouters, in the spirit of fair
play, to let Mr.. Heidenhain speak. Judge
Sioanaker seconded Nr. Noel, and! pres
emily nun bers of the listeners began to call
for Heidenhain. But the moment he COM
menced, the uproar was renewed with
greater violence than before. However
loud he raised his voice, the mob raised
theirs still louder. In fact, the boys had
got the noise in them and it would come
out They found their shouting could ST.
lence the speakers. and they continued to
shout in the same spirit that would impel
them to throw stones at dog that had a
tin kettle tied to his tail.
They we're prompted and considerably
assisted by men among them and behind
them. 1t was Of no use to try further, and
the meeting was broken up. Mr.. McDuff
made a bow to the blatant audience and
babe the revelers good night.

in case it proves too tough
for their tax-psying fathers, is, what
will be the present indebtedness of
the city - amounting to nearly
a million and a halt of dollars-when
it is converted into new debt, at the
rate of one dollar for every seventy
five cents? How long can the policy
of meeting old obligations as they
come due, by converting them into
new bonds of increased amounts, be
carried out without bankrupting the
city?
The Policy of heaping up mountain
high a city debt, for the encourage
ment and benefit of posterity. has not
been regarded by prudent men here
tofore as the highest wisdom. Let it
once be understood in all parts of the
country that we have deliberately re-
solved upon paying bonds with bonds
and, with frightful rapidity, are
magnifying the debt rather that re-
ducing it, and capital and immigra-
ton will avoid our city as though il
was afflicted with the pestilence. The
policy is most depIorable, and will en-.
tail upon the prosperity of our city {
mildew that will blast the bright
prospects and anticipations heretofore
INDUCED in by our people.
We do not expect that any warning
will be needed. It was freely an
nounced during the canvass lac
Spring that large increase of deb
was essential to the permanent growth
and prosperity of the city, and the ap
parent endorsement of that policy ha
emboldened its authors to rush reck
lessly forward in carrying it out. TIL,

THE antics ofthe German Tel graph
IN its aerObatic attempts to get the
Reform party" out of the unfortunate
position in which it placed itself, by
the "filching Of the good names" of
men Of character aud responsibility
who were never consulted as to their
sympathy of the movement, and some
of whom have felt called upon to pub
licly denounce the outrage as unsu-
thorized, are quite amusing. The
Telegraph tries hard to wash off the
stain of false prcteEses" from the
frOntspiece of the new party, but the
damned spot" won't out, and tho
Telegraph is at its wits end. Having
run out 'ofammunition, il is now keep

all the old tunes it has played for the

pose of imposing upon its neighbors,

the Income Tax.

The House Of Representatives has
very materially changed the income
tax, making the rate 3 per cent. in
stead of 3, as now, and the amount
exempted two thousand, instead of
one thousand, dollars. The House
also put clause in the bill that the
exemption for house rent shall not
exceed five hundred dollars a year.
These changes in the law will prob
ably not result in any considerable re-
duction in the aggregate amount of
ncome tax collected. That they wilt
make the law more popular than it
now is there can be no doubt. We
are not SO certain but that it would be
better to abolish the income tax alto
gether. The refusal to allow the pub
LEGATION of the returns. and the special
inducements held out for unscrupu-
lous business men to make fraudulent
statements, imposes the bulk of the
tax upon the integrity Of the country,
and offers a premium on rascality.
We think this all wrong, and would
prefer that the law be abolished alto
gether. or so changed as to more eff
fectually secure honestreturns.
