to detect illegal voters, and Republican
clerks inside whose duty 1t was to keep
a list Of names of all the voters. These
men all discharged their duties, 1t was
said when the election closed, faithfully,
1t was therefore impossible for six or
seven hundred illegal Democratic votes
to have been polled without their being
able to detect hundreds Of them, and
yet the Republicans failed to show after
two weeks of labor assisted by able
lawyers, that more than eight or ten
persons voted the Democratic ticket
illegally, and they are in the hands OF the
law, arrested by Democratic officers, and
if we do not mistake indicted by a Demo
cratic Grand Jury. So this shape of the
Republicans falsehoods is plainly shown
to be utterly incredible.
The second shape in which the false
hood is placed to do d.scredit to our city
abroad is worse even than The first and
proves more reckless still. 1t says,
"There were about fifty repeaters who
voted from two to fifteen times piece,
at that rate it would not take long to
roll seven hundred votes"
Could it be possible that with their
window men for whose expertness and
earnestness the Republicans have al
ways been noted, and their judges and
clerks, that this could have been done,
and the parties not be detected and
pointed out at once, and the Republi-
cans on the committee in Council not
refuse to report the election fair and
regular? 1t is bold falsehood and is
injurious to the good character and mo-
rality of all of our people, because they
are all "mixed up" in relationship by
| marriage and otherwise. IL Is also q
detractive SANDER upon the Republican
window men, clerks, and judges.
The third shape in which the false
hood Is stated by the Republican is as
follows ave also said that there were
a great many votes cast by Democi ats
who could not be called repeaters, but
who had not paid any county tax with
in two years, whose names have been re-
turned as errors. These persons were
furnished with tax receipts and they
voted"
1t may have been that the names Of
several hundred Democrats were return
ed as errors and so were the names o.
several hundred Republicans, doub less
But the Democrats had their names put
on the assessment lists, as provided may
be done in the law, and we have beer
assured by the collectors that no receipt,
were issued to persons whose names
were not on the assessment lists. Th'
books of the collectors were open to ex
, ANNA ion, aid they prove tina. the state
ment above, if it alluded to any grea
number of votes, is false. In fact, we ar,
r assured by the collectors, who made al
examination Of the matter and con-
d, pared to certain extent tie poll list
with their books, that more Republican
A seem to have voted without the paymeI
:, of taxes than Democrats.
,s In conclusion, we have only TO sa
h that the people Of tlis city have bee
T stigmatized by tie Republican in th
n most false and unworthy manner.

TRYING TO EsCAPE.-The Republi-
can is trying hard to escape the effect OF
the false language it used in regard to
the late city election. 1t now says it
"never said there were six or seven hum
dred Democrats who voted illegally but
it did say there were from six to seven
hundred illegal Democratic votes cast"
1t matters not, either statement is false
and unfounded, and is intended TO be
used for political purposes hereafter as
well as to destroy the repui alton of the
Democratic voters OF this city. The
Republican does not seem to understand
that illegal voting is a crime. Had il
viewed 1t in that proper light perhaps the
assistant editor would not have beer
caught voting without paying his tax
But illegal voting is crime according to
our statutes, and so we have ever repre-
sented it in the GAZETTE. Perhaps the
Republican will be disposed to ridicult
our morality a, regards this; but tha
would only be following the practice o
other reckless and careless takers ant
thinkers. When the Republican charges
falsely that six or seven hundred Demo
cratic illegal votes were polled at tn,
city election it only adds to the crime
that it would make people abr. ad be
lieve was rampant in Wilmington, ant
we do not wish people abroad to form s.
false an estimate of the virtue of ou
people. They do not wear their charac
ters so lightly as to descend to the com
MISSION OF crime, to save dollar, tha
would make them flee the State or stan
costly trial at New Castle and be DUR
ished with heavy fine. The Demo
Gratis in the City Council threw 10 iu
pediment in the way of the Republican
proving any election frauds. The r,
publicans had active window men on

THE CITY HOSPITAL we nope
there will be no opposition to the aboli-
tion of the "city hospital" 1t is one OF
the ulcers that belong to the past pollti-
cal regime of the Republican party-ln
this city. and came into existence about
the time the hold of the "Rins" upon
the control of the city was being broken
by the change of political sentiment
from the Republican to the Democratic
side. The Republicans had for long
time entire control of the city and run
1t into all manner Of experiments caus-
no debts that could only be managed
by funding them into permanent loans.
The costly "English Bull" and the more
costly system Of macadamizing the
streets was another relic of the bad
eminence of the late Republican man
aeement. These macadamized streets
are required to be sprinkled with water
at cost of some $l2 to SIS per month
10 the CITY Z; and number of the pro-
perty holders on the streets have with
held the payment for the work on the
plea that the macadamizing makes the
street more dusty than it was before the
work was done. Many more misman-
aged affairs might be mentioned, with
out recurring to the most costly and dis
polling Of all, the planning and misman-
agement OF the new reservoir. Out OF
all these operations "divies" are sup
posed to have been got by the Republi-
can party managers; as well as out OF
the sale and purchase and management
of the "city hospital" the subject under
our immediate notice.
It was to hold on TO these "jobs" Sc
cured from msmanacement, that the
Republican leaders resorted to the use
fist of forged receipts and on which tovote
some seven hundred negroes, and when
this was discovered the collector
ty tax receipts, by an act of the Legisla
ture to prevent these forgeries, then som'
Republican party leaders had the stdml
so successfully counterfcited that it wa'
not detected until it had been used owe
year. The votes of mean whites and o
the seven hundred negroes were used Il
keep the Republicans in power, and tina
party never was defeated efiectually vi
til the counterfeting was detected an
exposed. 1t is true that it was psrtl
broken by union of the Democrat
with the Republicans in the Seyent
Ward and the election of WIN. N
Candy. But it took active vigilance
root out the bad men who lived upon I'll
substance of the people.
We are not arguing in favor Of all

City Hospital. We are only asking thi

SQUAW SUSAN, who so heroically bent
her energies to save the captive wife and
daughter Of murdered Agent Mceker,
was herself once rescued from death in
a romantic manner. Susan was captur-
ed by band of Arapahoes, who put up
a stake at the mouth of the Cache La
Poudre, intending to burn her to death.
The commanding officer at Fort Collins,
having heard of the proposed ba' barity,
by alternate threats and promises obtain
ed Susans release. 1t probably was in
remembrance of this that the squaw be-
came so devoted TO Mrs. and Miss Meek
