Now this shows that last years levy was

A proper question 10 be considered is, what
has become of the money. In the first
place, we raised this year s375l.4o for the
bond fund, while not dollar vas raised
tor that purpose last year. Then we have
paid the Indebtedness of the old board
which was handed down to us as legacy
of nearly $1,000. We have paid the cur
rent expen es of the city besides, and have
in the treasury to-day, in the different funds
in cash, the nice little sum of 81, 1885
There are no city orders floating about and
wanting purchaser at IS cents on the
dollar as was the case last year, because we
have funds to pay them in full. And this

Who is Responsible .


1t is asserted in some quarters that the
opposition among certain democrats here to
the Peoples Movement. emanates from sew
eral articles published by the REPUBLICAN
a few weeks since, intimating thereby that
the fierce opposition of the democracy to
what they are pleased to call s'Republican
rule in our city affairs is of quite recent
growth. But such is not the case, and it
can be easily proved that as long ago as
last fall Republicans were bitterly assailed
and held responsible for the result of the
previous Charter election which gave the
city government into the hands of the Re-
publicans. Threats loud and deep were
then made against any Republican ever
again holding city Office, and TRADE of
abuse, venom and lies have been heaped upon
the few Republicans holding Offices ever
since. We are now witnesses of the result
of this style of talk and buster in divid-
ed and distracted community with the mem
bers of the miserable Union League, ready
to take advantages of our differences, and
step into power.
We do not wish to ignore the fact that
many, very many of the democrats were
unwilling to lend themselves to any such
small potatoe clap-trap talk about Republi-
cans, and had no part nor lot in the matter
of poisoning the minds Of the community
against men, who, although Republicans,
had performed their duty towards the city
and worked for its interests and welfare.
The responsibility for the want of harmony
in favor of the Peoples Movement, and g
peoples city ticket should rest where it
belongs, upon the shoulders Of those demo
Gratis who desire the ascendency of their
ps ety, rather than the advancement of the
interests of the city. To hold the aEpUB.
LIoAN accountable, is very gauzy indeed un-
der the cireumst snces.

March 10, 1876,
Meeting called to order by Pres. Sleeper.
The Committee on Invitations reported
that they had drafted circular which
would be printed and distributed without
delay.
Your committee beg leave TO submit the
following recommendations as to programme
of exercises for the Centennial Celebration:
PROGRAMMES:
Tuesday morning, July 18th, after q
o'clock, National Salute, Ringing of Bells
and National Airs by the Bands.
National Salute at Sunrise,
At 10 o'clock in the forenoon, procession
to be formed under the command of the
Chief Marshal, to consist Of the City Off
Gals, Fire Department. Military and Civic
Societies, Citizens and Farmers on Horse
back and on decorated wagons, Young
Ladies representing the States of the IN
ion, on properly decorated platform wagons
Your committee suggest that wagon
representing the kind of vehicles in use in
olden times and mounted by persons show
ing styles of l776, to be followed by anoth-
er, showing the contrast as existing in 1875
would form an interesting feature of the
procession, and we recommended that the
same be adopted
We also recommend that farmers, mech
anics, manufacturers and others be invited
to make display representing their various
occupations, and making an exhibition of
their products.
A wagon with platform and arranged to
represent independence Hall, with members
of Continental Congress, would also be an
appropriate and attractive feature, which is
submitted for your consideration
Alter the arrival of the procession on the
grounds Grove is recommended
for the ceremonies-Music, Singing, Read
