The Cyfy Council.

Our City Council is now on trial, and
to some extent our party is involved,
since the majority of the Council are
Democrats. Fairly and openly the
Democratic Party assumed to be the
Party of Economy and Reform i'll all
matters Of good government. and es-
pecially in the reduction of the taxes.
To this the Democrats are each and all
fairly committed. They are bound in
honor to reduce the taIes if they can do
so the coming year. The opposition will.
with few exceptions. endeayor to prevent
this. We believe there are several MEM
bers OF the Council who will not carry
their partizanship to this extent. al
taugh they are decidedly opposed to our
party. Among these we place Messrs.
Febiger and Jones. Indeed we feel a
confident hope that our Council has been
90 greatly improved that we could not
name man in it whom We could allege
would wantonly advocate an eItrsva-
CANT measure merely to defeat his oppo-
nents, We. should like to feel fully as
.ured that such time had passed.
But our Democratic friends in Council
are OF trial. If they rigidly adhere to
system of econnmy and do what they
have promised fairly, reduce the taxes
I another year, the people will sustain
them and be glad TO recognize them as
City Fathers. Mr.. Hayes holds the
purse strings. He is the Chancellor oi
cur City EIchequer. He cannot pre-
vent expenditures. He may make it hii
duty 10 / keep the committees informed el
the condition Of the funds, and to re
restrain them and remind them Of th'
necessity Of economy. But as.ChairmsI
of the Water Committee. Mr.. Haye
will be able to do great deal. Mucl
will depend upon Mr.. McMenamin. A
Chairman Of the Street Committee 1t
may contract 10 considerable degree.
He is one OF the best of men for position
where there IS work to be done. Th
fesr is that gentlemen in this position
forget that they are only agents OF tn
people. and they undertake TO be opei
handed and liberal, when the publ
sternly demands that they shall be n
zidly careful Of expenditures. To
much money has been expended in tn
street department for several years.
Mr.. Paynter as Chairman Of the Pull
lie Buildings Committee, will exert hi
utmost influence in favor Of economy
Messrs. McIntire, Lynch and Fare
will be expected TO render efficient al
n all this work of reform and econom.
they are competent and VIC feel SUI
will do all in their power to keep tn
Democratic party in its proper positio
tefore the people whom it hopes fairl
10 represent through the action Of thss
gentlemen.

All financial plans that are not pre-
ceded by very large reduction Of
Government expenses and taxation
will be but beating the air.
viii men build houses while the tax
gatherer must have three per cent. on
their assessed value, whether any in.
come is derived from them or not.
Who will put money out on bond
and mortgage if taxed on the amount
as personal property three per cent.
when the property built with the
money received on the mortgage is
taxed also three per cent. on its
assessed value!
Will any person use capital in dis
counting business paper when the capi-
tai used is taxed TO half the legal inter
estP
Will sny one put capital into incor-
porated banks while the taxes ON theiI
capital amount to nearly per cent?
1t is the enormous increase of the
salaries of officials, with the needles
increase Of the number of employees
in all departments of government, tina
is eating away the prosperity of tn,
nation, and making paupers of multi
tudes of people that would be profit
ably employed if the public burden oil

The first work OF Congress, Stat,

Trouble i'm the Coal Fields

The aspect Of AFFAIRS In the coal re-
glons seems TO have changed consider
ably since Tuesday, and there are ap-
prehensions of serious trouble. In re-
sponse TO the call Of the Sheriff of Lu-
Serne county, made last Sunday, for
troops, the Government directed Gen.
Osborne TO furnish such troops as he
might deem necessary. No request for
the actual presence of the military was
made until Wednesday, when Gen. o.
borne Informed the Governor that the
sheriff had called for troops to maintain
the peace in the townships of Jeddo and
HazletOn, General Osborne sta ted that
be was acting as rapidly as he could,
and would 60 to the points named with.
out delay, and he requested the Gov.
ernor to order forward the First Regi-
ment TO Hazleton. The Governor at
once telegraphed to Major Gen. Provost
at Philadelphia. to direct Colonel Ben.
son to move his regiment to Hazleton
by rail, aad place himself in eommunl-
cation with General Osborne. The lat.
ter arrived at Harleton Wednesday eve
ming, and the first regiment, which left
Philadelphia, in q special train, passed
Lehighton on Its way to the same place
at $40 p. M. In addition to the first
Tegimt ut, the Ninth Infantry, and the
Wyoming Artillery of Wilkesbarre,
with battery of -four guns, were or.
dered 10 Hazleton. The sherlff's ap-
plication 10 General Osborne for troops
stated that "rlOts, breaches of the
peace and unlawful assemblages are
existing and going on" with destrpc-
tlon, and with threats to destroy pro-
perty in a certain portion OF the county
OF LuzeFne, and he designates as the

left Mauch Chunk for Hazleton We'd
nesday evening. A raid was expected
TO take place at Buck Mountain that
night, and it was intended to detach a
company of so men for that place on
the arrival of the military at Ilazletop.
A number of the Especial policemen"
seat on from Philadelphia to gaOrd the
breakers at Audenried, Jeddo and 9TH
er places, started back for their homes
Wednesday. They say they were sent
to work in the mines without being
given pistols to defend themselves in
the midst of hostile population. They
rebelled against this, saying they were
engaged as special policemen, and they
asked transportation bacl, to Philadel-
delpha. This was refused, aud they
then started to walk back. One of
them, named John Mobary, was killed
between the bumpers of coal train on
which he was trying to get a ride.
1t was rumoured at Pottsy:lie We'd
nesday that the Reading Raj lroad shops
at Palo Alto would resume operations
on Monday mex I, but it was not known
whether their employees would aban-
don their organization to return to
work, or whether a compromise had
