It seems to be necessary to call Mr. EIL1o11
AxTHoNY's attention to the law as it is. In
his opinion on the constitutionality Of the
ordinance regulating the sale of fireworks
he recommends the passage Of nn ordinance
prohibiting the use, and not restricting the
sale, of rockets and crackers, forgetting, or
overlooking apparently. The provisions al
ready in operation. Chap. -, Sec. l, of Re
rised Ordinances, provides as follows:
No eauib, rockets, crackers, eerpents, or other
fireworks containing powder OF other combust,ole
or explosive materials shal be kept or stored with
in The limits OF tho City Of Chicago. except the
same be kept OF Aored in q fire proof vault. ANY
person, f;rm or corporation violating the proris-
ions of this chapter shall be subj to fine OF not
less than $50 nor moro than 500 for each ofcnsc,
and like penalty for every twcnty-four hours that
said rockcls squbs. crackers, or other fireworks
containing the aforesaid materials shall bc kept
stored after the first conviction for violation OF
this chapter.
Sec. Is of Chap. as Of the Revised Ordin-
ances provides as follows:
No person shall fire or discharge any cannon.
gun. fowling- piece. pistol, or firearms OF any de-
scsiption, or fire. explode. OF set of any squib,
cratkers other thing containing powder or other
sion from the Common Council, or written permits
sion from the Mayor, which permission shall limit
the time OF sEch firing, and shall be subject to be
revoked By the Mayor or Common Council At any
time after it has been granted. Anyviolation here
OF shall subject the party to fine OF not less than
Two dollars nor exceeding ten collars.
1t only remains for the police to rigi dly
enforce these enactments, aud the people
Of Chicago arc inclined to see that such
enforcement is rigid This sentimental re-
gard for the burning patriotism of the small.
boy is commendable, until it puts the punk
in his fist and starts him on his indammahle
demonstration Of his love for his country.
The urchin will recover from his disnppoint-

The manner in which contracts for the
erection of public buildings are manipulated
is almost as mysterious as the whereabouts
of the missing book OF LIvx or the lost
pleiad. Some little episodes in connection
with ths building Of the new Court-Housa
have oozcd out during the, past two or three
DAYS which are, not devoid OF interest, as
tending to- show with no little directness the
Incubation Of q good deal OF fraud
and corruption in connection with that job.
A little over q year ago, and two months be-
fore the contract for the Courthouse was
let, EDWIN WALKER, familiar name A. ound
the County Building, made block Of eight
notes OF 5000 each, payable to his own
order. These were secured by trust-deeds on
property IN Chicago and Lemont. As it Was
stated about that time TINT 900 would be
paid for the contract, the question naturally
occurs,. We're not these eight notes
made by WALKER for corrupting the Com
miss;opers or others who had influence?
WALKER failed to get the contract, his bid
being too high; aud it WIS givpn to MCNEIL,
who, in his turn, sold out to the unsuccessful
bidder in constellation of certain Per
diem while employed as superintendent, and
two Of the notes. The remaining six prom
ises-to-pay are supposed to be locked up in
the Fidelity Bank, in the custody Of
q journalist, who, it is said, will
make a pro rata division thereof should
there accrue to w41xEn a profit
in the work. One of the notes
originally given to MCNEIL has passed
through several hands, it is said, in the
natural course Of trade, and about two
weeks ago Judgment was. entered upon it.
It is now in the possession Of franklin
street merchant WALKER says the notes
are absolutely worthless, as they were qivort-
ed from tho purpose for which they were
originally intoAded. What that purpose Was
is not within the ken of any but the parties
to it, It is more than fair presumption
TINT it was corru ption and bribery.

MIR. rICKARD'S RESIGNATION.

The public, or that part Of the public
which takes an interest in our educational
progress, will view with regret the unfortu-
nate disagreements in the Board of Educa-
ton, and the equally unfortunate circum-
stances which have led to Mr.. P1cKARD's
resignation. Upon the one side, it is to be
said thxt Mr. P1cKARp has been oversensihve,
and has not acted with that discretion or
diplomacy that most mon in a similar situa~
tion would have displayed. When he found
that his assistant was transcentling his duties
and becoming insubortlinate, it was<his duty
to have demonstrated with him and demanded
an explanation, and, if this did not prove
satisfactory, to have made formal or in
formal complaint to the Board Of Education,
setting forth the nature of that insubordine-
ton, and asking for advice or assistance in the
matter. This would nave completed
his duty in the premises, and placed
the responsibility Of his assistants derelic-
ton of duty where it belongs. Instend Of
that, he was acquainted for long time with
that assistants conduct, and kept it to him.
self, made no complaint to the Board, ten
dered mis- resignation without explanation,
and did aot open his mouth until it became
absolutely necessary for him to do SO.
On the other hand, it is to be said that
there has been for long time reports OF q
CLIQUE inside the Board md outside of it,
who hnve made no secret Of their intention
to oust Mr. P1cKARp from lis place; that
this determination was male in Mr. Coli
WIS time. and that he was privy to it, aId,
if we mistake not, nnade open boast that he
should be driven ont; that place was
made for h1r. Dorr, and that be
was imported to freeze Mr. P1cxARD
out by petty acts of woTimcnt and
iritation and that the class 1t this CON-
munity now e1ulting in Mr. P1cKARp's resig-
nation is not the class which has the best
interests Of the schools at heart Under
these circumstances, our citizens cannot but
regard the situation of the schools with np-
prehension and if it shall eventuate that the
Board places Mr.. Dorr in Mr.. P1oKARps
position it will confirm the unpleasant
suspicious so long aaoat, and result in an
emphatic protest 1t is to be regretted in
this connection that the adherents Of Mr..
DoTY are composed very targety OF those who
have no interest in education ut any time,
aud Of those who have withdrawn their chill
dren from the schools. If the elevation of
Mr.. Dorx would result in returning these
children to the schools, there might be some
compensation for the violent sacrifice the
real friends of education are called uro'' to
make; but, as there is no such prospect. they
are simply called upon to make this sacrifice
of an able and experienced educator without
any compensation. In this contingency, the
people Of Chicago will look to Mayor HEATH
and demand of him that no detrinent or
prejudice shall come to the schools through
the plotting Of cl,ques.

THE sUNDAY-sALO0N AGITATION.


There has never been tina when TIE
TRIBUNE has refused its sympathy and aid to
any movement calculated to promote tenn
perance in the communitJf And not the
least efficient assistance it has given in this
direction has been III the way of timely pro-
test against Incorporate or ll-ju4lsed efforts
to coerce instead Of persuading, and its con-
demnation of movements which always re-
suit in union of temperate drinkers with
the intemperate and vicious classes against
attacks on personal freedom. One would
think that Chicago had already had strife
enough Of this kind, md that the results of
such strife had been sufficiently damaging to
prevent its revival But the ladies Of the
Woman's Christian Temperance Union have
had no personal experience, as rule, in the
evils of turning over the City Government
into the hands of the deprived classes, as
sisted by the respectable Germans and tenn
berate drinkers, who had no other way to de-
fend their personal rights than to join hands
with them. These ladies, in blssfuli ignorance
Of corrupt city officials and high taxes, arc
making an effort to begin the old Sunday beer
war all over, with the absolute certainty that,
if they succeed (Which fortunately is not
probable), the taxpayers and respectable
people of Chicago will have to suffer for it,
and the saloons will remain open oil the
same.
The point in'regard to the State law is not
now, and Messrs. DENT i BLACK, in the
opinion they gave the ladies on the subject,
were right only in SO far Us the law is on the
tatuto-book, and, if enforced, must be by
means Of indictments, trials, and tho usunl
process of enforcing State laws. There is
nothing in the State laws which requires or
permits tho city authorities to maintnin
police force and levy taxes for the enforce
ment Of any State law; but the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union has now
the same right that it would
have if there were q city ordinance
toesend out spies, produce informers before
the Grand Jury, get indictments against
those who keep their saloons open ons6un-
day, and bring them to trinl But conviction
under the State law will be difficult to secure;
it has often been tried and failed. The law
simply provides that, tswhoever keeps open
any tipping -house, or place where liquor is
sold or given away, upon the first day Of the
week, commonly called Sunday, shall be
fined not exceeding 5000" This law comes
down on the books from about half cen
tury ago, and was passed originally during
the apprentice system in this State, when
roadside inns aud tippling-houses we're a
moral nuisance, and especially threatened
the youths who enjoyed holiday from their
apprenticeship On Sunday. 1t served good
purpose inits day; but it is doubtful whether
