multitude OF enactmeats bearing on the subject
were patiently examined, the debate lasting near
" two hours. The conclusion was finally reached
that the time for the induction Of the new city ad

mittee of the Citizens party, and by the Mayor
and Aldermen elect. All present eoncurred fully

this decision, unanimously made by such dis
tingulshed body Of legal gentlemen, any further
agitation Of the subject would be worse than use.
