Messages from Mayors of Brooklyn have
for many years told Of an increasing city debt.
Year after year. under Ring rule. a million or
two has been added. until property owners
groan under oppressive taxation. and pros
poets for future prosperity are dimmed. The
document that Mayor HOWELL sent yes
terday TO the Common Council was not
an exception. II tells that the city debt
has been swellcd to the enormous sum OF
$37,475.3ls. an increase Of tl23j.5GG over
what it was n year ago. The bridge, the costly
Park the grand boulevard drive to Concy
Island. the unnecessary reservoir. have helped
to impose burden that the Mayor says must
be borne by two generations. with prospect Of
its becoming still heavier.
The message is a gloomy showing for Brook

gance and dishonesty that has attended its
government

Fraudulent Issues.
(Elgin Leader.l


There were goodly number of white
Union men IN the South during the war.
A large number Of Southern Union men
entered the Union army. Our republican
| friends claim that there are a large num-
Der OF original Union men now in the
South who would vote the republican
| ticket were they permitted to do so. At
least one-halt or the people of the South
opposed secession originally There are
probably not more three or four original
secessionlsts. men women aud children,
now alive. And scarcely one who
would favor secession now. But grant
ing there are the original mum ber-say
four millions. The population in this
country is not far from $4,000, 600. The
danger of solid south" is apparent,
a follower cry was pever made. Solid
south" means democratic. Missouri
is solid south" state. So is Kentucky
and Maryland. It matters not that these
three states furnished their quota of
troops for the Union armies; they are
solid SOUTH" New York, New JERSEY
and Indiana are Democratic, aud there
fore, solid south" states. The lower
half of Illinois is solid south.
The cry of ''solid south" is fraudulent
through and through. 1t is astonishing
how the Republican leaders can hold their
own even as well as they do on false
issues. They have not made manly,
honest issue since the close of the war.
Sectional politics will last as long as the
Republican party is in power. It lives
only on the bitter memories of the war 1t
plants discord and waters hate. tt dare
not raise live issue. Il lives in the
past. Il is party of has beens." We.
