Il shs Geld, and there vas a good deal Of
epeeulatiou as to what would be the result
of tho appearance Of this new party in the
political arena. They had candidates in
illinsis, Minnesota. Wisconsin aud Kansas
and developed in those States far more
strength than was anticipated. Ia Wis
consin the 4" Oranges" nominated William
h. Taylor. for Governor, a nomination
which was endorsed by tho Democrats.
The Republicaa candidate was the pres
sut Governor, Cadwalader G. Washburn.
In 1871 wien Governor Washburn was
previously elected, he had 0379 majority,
but hs is now beaten by Taylor, Who has
about 10000 majority. Tho coalition
hes also carried majority OF the State
Legislature, which at the last session had
twenty-niue Republican majority on joint
ballot. Minnesota similar tactics we're
pursued a. in Wisconsin. Asa Burton being

however, succeeded in clcctng one OF their
candidates by small majority T.. w. Dixie
Who was nominated for State Treasurer
In Illinois there was no State office to
be filled, the election being confined to
county Offices aud few vacancies in tho

Most of the streets are one chain (66 feet
wide. except Washington and Franklin streets,
which are one hundred feet wide, and Union
Water and Commerce streets, which are only
fifty feet wide, and Cameron street, north OF
Christ Church. and Potomac street, are forty
feet wide. The sidewalks of the one-hundrcd-
f. et-wide streets are eighteen feet in width on
these sixty six feet wide they are twelve feet
wide, except on King street where they arc
fourteen feet on Water, Union and Commerce
streets the sidewalks are nine feet wide, aud
on Cameron street, between Washington anu
Columbus streets, they arc to be eight feet
wide. The sides of the squares, running north
and south, are $50 #. = ln., and those running
east and west, FAC feet 10 inches. The squares
between Water and Union streets run SOU feet
east and west.
The Streets as laid out in 40 and 1863, are
nearly identical with the streets as now existing;
but some mistake or change led to the extern
sion of the squares between Royal and FIT
streets TOO far to the west and those between
Prince and Duke, and between Duke and Wolfe
too far to the South; but the Council passed
an act confirming these extensions, but provlu-
ed that none of the houses on the old street
lines should he removed uotil the owners chose
to change them. Hence in going south on FIT
streets one or two old houses on the east side
viii be found to set back from the street, and
one or two Oh the west side pre-. ect into the
street. These houses stood on tn, old street
lines. They were all built before April, 1875.
The grading and paving Of the streets rnn MN
east aud west stopped with the paV,9g e ei Lux
street, more than 70 years go,and Wofc strGeI
remains now in much the same condition 1t did
in 1899. The present decade is probably des-
tined to see revival Of street improvements
