The People and Their Servants.

The only appeal from our City
Council is to the people, and the
Board does not seem to regard the
will or wishes of the citizens with
much awe or consideration. Some
weeks ago, when by vote of ma
jority of the municipal orators, with
out investigation or trial, Detective
HARRIS was peremptorily dismissed
from the service, we reminded the
gentlemen that custom and courtesy
usually accorded the accused in such
cases an opportunity to explain the
act or acts on which the charges
against him were preferred, but no
attempt was made toward the repara-
ton of an error which we were then
inclined to regard as the result of
hasty and unconsidered action. Since
the dismissal Of HARRIS a petition for
his reinstatement, signed by a large
number of the leading citizens, busi-
ness men and property owners in the
city has been laid before the Council.
This has been treated with contempt
uous silence. Naturally the signers
of the petition feel offended. They
have right to be heard. In the Ian
guage of one of the signers, Common
decency demanded that the case should
be Investigated after the presentation
of petition signed by so many citi-
zens." We do not assume the position
of adviser and counselor to the Coun-
Gil. We fully comprehend the useless
ness of offering suggestions to body,
q portion at least of which is composed
of gentlemen who verify the truth of
the famous couplet in HUDIBRAs, still
we would again remind them that it
is better and more commendable to
acknowledge and repair an error than
to persist in wrong doing. The wishes
of citizens are entitled to some consid-
GRAFTON, and the public servant who is
80 ignorant as not to recognize this
fact will soon find himself deprived of
his little brief authority.

what Bowen has to Say OF the Wit
ness stand.

New YORK, May 9th.-Henry G.
Bowen was interviewed by reporter
last night on the subject OF the tripar-
tte agreement and the arbitration in
Moulton's house. Bowen said the ar
bitrators were called together to act
for Tilton and himself. They were
not invited to Moulton's by Beecher.
He had no share in the affair what
ever. The arhitrators for the time
being were Court. but did not and
could not discuss or even consider any
other question on any subject than
what Tilton brought before them.
They were only called to listen to
what Tilton himself had to say, not
what Beecher had to say, either by
himself or by attorney. Beecher's
name was not mentioned in the paper.
1t would have been ridiculous for the
arbitrators to have made any reference
to others not interested in the arbitra-
ton. He thought that Clafiin would
he called to contradict him, and would
be particularly gratified to have either
of them say who acted for Beecher,
or spoke for him on the occasion, and
by whose authority or permission.
The arbitrators might either thereto
fore or thereafter have spoken. Ii so,
he did not hear them.

Agree on One Point.

The Record Union says: "There is
no perceptible difference between the
Democrats and Independents = they
both claim the same principles and
both denounce the Administration.
That is very clever for the Record
Union; we hardly expected SO much
from that source. If there were half
dozen other parties in the country
they would all agree in denouncing
the third-term Administration party
their usurpation of power, their pecu-
lation in office, and their prodigal
waste of the public funds. There
never has been, nor there never will
be, an honest party in the nation that
will not agree upon these points. The
Democrats and Independents are nc
doubt at work for the same end, viz:
Save the country from disgrace and
ruin, and it is not surprising that they,
as sensible, honest men, should agree
in very many principal points. and we
shall not be surprised to see them har-
monize and come under the same ban
ner. And the sooner they do it the
better for the country.

Suspicious Admissions.

The Chronicle, which means FRANK
PIXLEY, or FRANK PIxLEY, which
means the Chronicle, is giving place
to editorials of a somewhat discourage
ing nature to the Republicans. But
what is the most remarkable, all
things considered, is the assumption
at the outset that the Independent
party is so certain Of overwhelming
defeat that it is not to be considered
in the fight. These arguments of Mr..
PIXLEY are to be taken with many
grains of allowance. The concession
of certain victory to the Democratic
party by Republican paper, edited
by an Independent leader, at this early
stage in the campaign, is suspicious,
and savors strongly of design to fos-
ter that toverweening confidence which
is so frequently a powerful element of
defeat. The admission of invincibility
from an enemy, before a trial of
strength is had, implies either cow
ardice or treachery; and those Demo-
Gratis who accept these pats on the
back as matter of course, believing
that no matter who the party nomi-
mates, or how great the discord within
the ranks, success is certain, are lay
ing fiattering JUNCTION to their souls,
which in time may prove burning
blister. The policy of the Chronicle
may be to increase the number of can
didates for Office, in the hope that un-
worthy and incompetent material may
be selected, which will be repudiated
at the polls, and its own candidates
selected. The election this Fall will
not be child's play, and no ticket will
be permitted to walk over the course
without contest. The Independents
and Republicans will select their best
men; and if the Democrats expect
victory to perch on their banner, they
must see that it is carried by men in
whose ability and honesty the people
have confidence.

One of the finest improvements in
the city will be the rebuilding OF the
Lafayette Hotel. The whole Of the
back of the house is already being
torn down, and the front will shortly
be built up. The stores will be just
half as large as they are now, and, as
the Important has very large stock
on hand, they will not have half room
enough for their goods and in order to
prevent them from being damaged by
dirt and dust, they have decided to
sell all their Spring goods at less than
cost, land others, such as cOttons, table,
linen, etc., at exact cost. We advise
all to call at the Important and con-
vince themselves Of the great bar
gains. Such bargains they can never
get again, and in order to prevent a
great rush, we advise all to call early
and take advantage of the building of
the Lafayette Hotel. ale

The silver state. [volume] (Unionville, Nev.) 1870-1903, 1875-05-18

AT a recent meeting of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee of Ohio,
twas decided to hold the State Conven
ton at Columbus on the 18th of June.
Speeches were delivered by number
OF gentlemen, among them Senator
Thurman. He thought it was apparent
to every one that unless the Republican
party could carry Ohio this fall its fate
Is sealed, and if the Democratic party
carry the State this fall it would settle
the question Of party ascendancy in the
nation. He said the Republicans were
doing their utmost to redeem the State
organization by the use of money, by
misrepresenting the actions of the last
Legislature, and he was sorry to say by
cultivating secret Know Nothing or
ganization. He Thought the Democrats
should insist upon being the attacking
party, and with good organization
victory was assured. Is
