THE LIEN BOOKS, &C.

For the Gazette.
MIR. EDITOR 1T appears that during
the year 1877, Mr.. A. b. Starr was en-
ployed by the Republican Council to ex-
anime and fix up the lciu book. II am
not mistaken he was at the same time
empi ,yed as Clerk in the Surveying De-
partment. On the 9th Of December he
recei we'd twenty.tiv five dollars on account
of services for satisfying lions. On sth
of May, 1878, he received one hundred
and fifty dollars for the same work. The
minutes show that the Clerk was author
lied to satisfy the liens as per Mr..
STAIRS report on December 9th, 1871.
1t appears from the records that the
Council squandered away two hundred
dollars by paying Mr.. Starr for work
which former Clerks of Council had ne
elected. Where W the Republican ut
that timo TO cry out against extravaganza
in long editorials. Echo dnsDers, Wnere?
1t Is strange that the books were left in
such bad condition after spending two
hundred dollars TO cor :ect the errors. No
doubt at this time there are hundreds OF
liens unsatisfied which have been paid.
The book will show for ,tself, commen-
cling at 1870, neglect and carelessness
upon the pant of those whose duty 1t was
10 make the proper entries, and page sf-
ter page still remain unsaiished. what
work Mr.. Starr did Is mystery, As the
whole thing, from 1870, Is still standing,
a. an evidence that no attempt has been
made to correct aud satisfy tue large
amount entered AZ liens against nearly
all The prominent bust ness men in this
city for curbing and paving side walks.
You have urged this matter, ano u Is 10
le hoped that this Council will have this
important matter att, nded to, and when
finished report will be made to Council
that can be- understood. IL is in efhcient
| hands at this time, and hope the whole
u, ject will receive careful aud thorough
iuvestigation, and the taxpayers inform

MONDAY. SEPT ~ 1879.

RAcxIN0 UUr.-At last the RepubH-
can backs out from the charges it made
against one of the Collectors OF this city.
It now says:
"If Mr.. Carpenter, Jr., was half as
much concerned about IL as the GA
zETTr pretends tO be, he would In all
probability have come TO us himself to
set matters straight, without employing
q newspaper to protect him from mis-
representation. We have known Mr..
Carpenter, Jr., for quite a number OF
yean and are pleased TO say that he
ranks amongst our most enterprising Cit
liens. We wish we only had more such
Carpenter, Jr's., in Wilmington. We will
also admit that he has made quite as
efIsctive q tax collector as the law re-
quires OF him. Of course he has net
troubled himself about hunting up ke-
p,fblicans and making them pay poll
taxes Tor the law never intended that ne
should do so, but he has sat in his office
and received the taxes that were brought
to him, Just as effectively as any other
tax collector could have done, and we
believe he has been honest and punctual
In pay ing over every cent he collected to
the County Treasurer. We believe also
he has been dillgent in importunlng
property holders 70 make them pay their
taxes and in all respects Mr.. Carpenter,
Jr has been q model collector 50 far as
the Law II quired him o be-"
Nothing would have pleased the Re
publican better than to have had Mr..
Carpenter to call and beg it 10 correct its
misrepresentation" no debut. But he
did not care to lay himself under any
such obligations to thai paper.
But just there the short-sightedness OF
the Republican crops out again. The
GAZETTE was not anxious to have it
back down OH Mr.. Carpenters account
only. 1t was bound to have tha, ac.
knowledgement because the Democratic
party had intrusted Mr.. Carpenter will
the custody of the seal of the county tas
receipts and as he was its representative
to that extent it might be held bound 70
his action.
Had we delayed in demanding thi
retraction until next election was OF
our heels We should not have secured it
The cunningly devised stories of tn
Republican are all of the same characte
as those it now retracts about Mr.. Can
penter. When 1t does tell the truth it

nations and apologies and has to b

Perhaps IL we had not thus extracted

people would have looked after the We
fiattering and truthful announceme
the Republican has been forced to de
