The West Town Board Of Audit met last night

except Justice Sheridan. The room Was packed
and jammed with the "byes long before the
meeting began. aud members Of tho Board we're
iudustriouhly button-holed II behalf Of the vari-
ous little jobs it was desired to put through.
The first business in order waa the LIST Of NOM
nations for Deputy Assessors. On motion OF
Justice Scully, the Board resolved itself into \
Committee Of tbs Whole on the nominations,
and retired INTO IN adjoining room away from
Assessor Ryan, and his chisf-elerk, Crowley,
followed them in. and e1-Asseesor Rafferty, waa
afterwards called in. Tho subject was pretty
thoroughly canvassed, and, on motiop Of Justice
scully, it WAS finally resolved that eight

ing Of the Boarl for the Office work, made no
thirty, aud as the List handed in BY the Asses
sor numbered thirty three, three unfortunates
were dropped. Larry o'B1ien and the Assessor
cancuaing together to make tho selection.
The slate WAS further spoiled by motion Of
Judge scnllY that the different rationalities
should be represented in the list Of deputies, in
order 10 secure efficiency IN the assessment. So
many sections or the West Side were occupied
by non-EnEilsd- speaking residents that this Was
necessary. Justice Morrison and others sup
ported tho motion. which was adopted unaui-
mously- 1t was then determined to adjourn to
Monday evening, in order to g1ve tame to the
Assessor to revise his nominations on that basis.
The Committee then rose, and the Board re-
turned to the other room.

Latte Fotks' stnp, BY Harry Kyle Dazas.
There was little girl once who wanted tho

for her. FIRST her papa, because he waa 90 tall

reach it. But be declared that the thing could
not be done, and advised her to be contented
with doll, 8 big one with blue eyes. that topened
&nd shut, and real yellow hair-a doll instead OF
the moon-but he did not understand She
could not make him SEQ that it WRs the moon
abe wanted, not doll.
Then she went to her mother. Best sud dear

was kind. She said ahe remembered wanting
tho moon herself; but no one ever got it for

Mamma was kind, but shs did not quito under
stand either. Oh, no.
Then there was her big brother, who grinned,
and leased her; and her big sister, who begged
her not 70 cry, and gave her great, sweet sugar
but abe knew better.
That night, when she went to bed, she aaked
the nurse. old Dinah, whether it was true that
she could never, never, never reach the moon
and Dinah considered, under tile red aud yellow
turban like small conaagration, and 1fter con-
aidering, she said:
"Wen. honey; reckon you can't reach de-

Sorereisms Of Endmsfru.

The Sovereigns receive oysters every Satur-
day evening. They commenced with three
gallons week last week they had four
teen.
Persons who know what they are talking
about, and who are not, as the merchants
falsely claim many are, afraid Of the terri.
bio vengeance of the company, are Of the
opinion that some members Of the council
working in the scale works use time them
selves and cause others to use their time in
the shops in talking about matters pertain
ing to the council, thus interfering with the
efficiency Of the companys help. This is to
be regretted, and the company are not to be
censured if such get their "walking papers"
The talk, however, that members are scared,
and "wish they were out Of it," is an utter
falsehood fabricated by certain angry mer-
chants out Of whole cloth, and is told by
them when the truth would do better. We
are aware that it has been remarked by a
would-be prominent ring man that this Or
ganization is mo real benefit to the workmen
because they don't know enough to keep
money it they do save it in purchases, and it
had better be in the hands Of the merchants
who know how to use it," but the lump of
light that uttered this brilliant sentiment
don't represent ,ho sentiment of the Fair
banks company so clearly sometimes as he
would like to, aud this we believe is one of
those instances. Besides, he is pretty sure
TO get beaten in whatever he undertakes,
whether it be the "boosting" OF relative
into a republican nomination, or the election
OF ring tool to Congress. We presume
there are anti.council influences at work
which have their effect on the company, but
it is significant fact that nearly if not
quite all tho men who have recently been
discharged were anti-Polaud men in the late
campaign.
