II is to the interest of every man, woman
nomically conducted. We urged last win
ter upon those in authority the necessity for
outstanding our means, and thereto the em-
ployment only of so much force as was
necessary 10 keep affairs In order. Hut our
argued differently. They maintained It was
the duty of the city to find work and EN-
ployment that the community ought thus
To aid men TO a living. Our advice was not
taken-the expenses were large, though not
exceeding other years. But when the cleo
tlon day rolled, our neighbors, fiusted and
frothed over the extravaganza OF our old
friend McMenamin and the result was O
disapproval of the very policy that the Re-
publican and Commercial themselves urged a
few months before.
We do not propose To urge anything upon
the Council that we do not believe will be
TO the interest of all and we are glad to
find the Republican members OF Council
now looking to the contract system as a 20
luton to the difficult problem of economy
II that system is adopted and worked fairly
and honorably, (Which is the correct way,)
the city may save thousands upon thous-
ands Of dollars, the taxes be reduced, and
real estate ascend in price instead of being
reduced more and more every year until
1t now will not average four per cent. on
the assessment after the taxes are paid. Let
us help ourselves out OF the difficulty in
stead of looking to Uncle Sam.

The Radical perpstua,son Game.

Special dispatch TO the BALTIC. Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-It is quite
clear now TO every reasonable man that
the desperate men who are seeking to
perpetuate their own power have deliber-
ately conspred to the use the corrupt
machinery of returning boards to defeat
the will Of the people as expressed at the
ballot-box. In South Carolina they do it
by defying the highest legal tribunal in
the state, and Florida they deliberately
manufacture returns from u democratic
county days after the regular return had
been made by the proper canvassing Of
ficers. In Louisiana another game is
being played. There they expect to be
justified for throwing out the votes of five
parishes and disfranchising more than ten
thousand people by clever stage trick.
The story of the negro woman, Eliza Pink
ston, was fixed up for the purpose of
shocking the northern mind and in the
hopes Of narrowing up the peoples feel
lngs to such an extent that they would
justify any decision that the returning
board might make in the casesof Ouchita
purish. Is it possible that such transparent
stage tricks will avail to shield the men
from popular wrath who attempt TO nullify
the will of the whole people ofthe countryP
II the house of Representatives acts firmly
and wisely all such trickery will soon be
exposed and the people will soon make
these mlscreants tremble for their own
safety.
