CoNcERT.-The second in the series OF
musical and literary entertainments, held
las: Friday evening, was like its prcdeces.
sor, highly successful. Tho rendition OF
the several selections, was, ali things con-
sidered, highly creditable, and was well
received by the large audience present.
Unfortunately the performers, aside from
the orchestra, We're placed at great dis,
advantage, owing to the annoying and
vexatious delay caused by the non arrival
of a piano and music ordered for the occa-
sion. The piano was shipped and enroute,
but, owing to wreck on the line, did not
arrive until too late FOR the concert. The
music hooks Were also delayed and suffl-
cicnt time was not given for thorough re-
hearsal. However, in spite of all these
draw backs, the programme was well rem
dered, and we are justified in saying, that
under more suspicious circumstances, the
concerts will certainly exceed our cxpecta
tions. A decided improvement was mott.
chile in the selections furnished by the
orchestra, the instruments harmonizing
and the rendition being more smooth and
even throughout. The address by Mr..
Darling was, in the main, well received
although there was some criticism and eX-
ceptions taken to statements made, yet the
effort was nevertheless creditable and
showed throughout careful preparation.
Of the vocal and instrumental selections
we will say, rs criticism is not allowable
in any event, and would be ungenerous
considering the great disadvantage under
which the performers lahored, that We
that Morris possesses the talent to inaugu-
rate, and successfully carry out, so credit
able and praiswcrthy an enterprise. The
ladies and gentlemen who so kindly assist
at these entertainments, are entitled to
praise and thanks, for TO their efforts is
wholly due the gratifying success. We
may state in this connection that the new
piano, ordered for special use at these con-
certs, has been received and is in position
at the hall, where it will remain until the
close of the series. The instrument is en-
tirely new, and being in tune, will allow
our pianists full scope to give exhibitions
of their skill. 1t is the intention to vary
the programme for the next concert, and
on behalf of the management would say,
that they will do all in their power to pro-
vide an entertainment that will eclipse any
previous effort. The managers, at the
start, have had much TO contend with,
but they now lave all arrangements made
| for successfully CARRYING out their plans.

aAAhls0A's kJL0aY OF HI3 ACTS,
. The Administration Of Mayor Harrison
has been noted for the prevalence OF every
form OF vice and proflieacy in the City OF
chicago. The gamblers, the houses Of pros.
11at'on, the bunko~dens, the low concert
saloons, the confidence men, and criminals
OF all classes have to a certain extent. direct
~ or indirectly, enjoyed his protection. He
ooasted yesterday in his speech to the Demo-
cratic City Convention that there were
"onls " fourteen gambling ng-houses in the
City OF Chicago. This is the number Of such
institutions, all Of them illegal, which he .as
authorized and stands responsible for. How
many more there maybe outside of his pro-
tectlo1', but conniyed at BY his police, he
cannot tell, because possibly lie does mt
know. But this many lie is aware of and
mas publicly asowed full knowledge Of. So
1t IS with the houses OF prostitution. He
spoke OF them as lightly as if they vera
licensed institutions. They do exist, he ad-
United. and from his manner it was evident
that he Knew what they were, where tAey
were and now many Of them we're i,sxist-
ehce, and who patronized them. He con-
1essed. virtually, tha! he had established or
permitted system Of inspection and author

authority of Law or A1e consent or knowl

MAYOR HARn1soS's speech to the Demo-
cratic City Convention yesterday was re-
markable both for its length and its charac-
ter. It was more than an hour long, and
was addressed not to the audience before the
speaker, but to the reporters, and through
them to the public. 1t was au apology for
the present City Administration, and the be-
ginning Of defensive campaign; diffuse and
egotistlcai, as all the Mayors oratorical
efforts are; and disingenuous. as they are too
often Mr.. Harrison admitted that he had
not enforced the laws and ordinances. He
said. in effect, that they ought not to be en-
forced. In other words, he made himself
the judge'of What was proper and what was
wrong in the statutes Of this State and the
acts Of the Common Council. He assumed
that he was both the law-making and the law
executing power; and that he deserved the
credit for ali the good work Of the Common
Council while that body was responsible for
all bis blunders and follies.

IT has been officially announced that there
will BE- no extra session Of Congress before
fall, If then. The President Is not at all Ger
tain that the new Congress would pass a
better Refundins bill than the one vetoed by
President Hayes. Some OF the Republican
Representatives favor 5 per cent bond, and
others favor the Carlisle anti-Nat1ona}-
bank idea Such congressman are sufficient
in number, acting with the Democrats,
to be able to pass an Objectionable refunding
measure In spite OF the more conservative
and far-seeing Republicans. The Secretary
Of the Treasury intends to use the surplus
money now in the Treasury and the surplus
revenue throughout the year. which will
amount in all to s15o, 1000, to redeem the
6per cent maturing bonds. It is announced
that under law of Congress the Secretary
can borrow about s15o. o,ooo at and s1{

TIE Committee of seven business-men-
more or less-who Endorsed Mir. Carter Har-
rison's financial administration the other day
virtually admitted that he had only adopted
and confirmed the policy beQueathed to hi,n
by Mayor Heath. Said the Committee In
their circular:
a policy Of retrenchment Was enforced jby
Mayor Heath. and to enable the city not onlY to
meet maturing indebtedness, but provide for the
future the expenditures were limited to IS per
cs@t Of The "a tx COLLECTIONS 1he same policy ;oas
td7pe ertcat, but to bring about cash payments
as early as noss soe cnrtaiments were made in
and Void ne
efficient performance Of public duty and de-
mand.
There it is all in nutshell Mayor Heath
had begun the IS per cent policy. Mayor
Harrison merely continued 1t. His financial
policy was Invented and handed over to him
by his predecessor. But Mr. Harrison as
sunles not only that he originated It, but that
he carried it out alone, whereas Republican
Council controlled the appropriations. He
had not the power to be extrayagant if he
had wished to be. He never had and never
could have the power to spend more money
than he had. 4 good Council and the con-
'Istitutional Limitation prevented him from so
doing. The Committee of good business
men, when they enlarged on the clty's credit
and low debt as compared with other Cities i,
must have known, or should have known,
that the State Constitution has regulated all
that by limiting the power Of contracting
debt and neither Mayor Harrison nor the
Democratic party had the power to increase
the debt beyond that constitutional limit If
they had been ever so much disnosed.

AyOWeuiy under the care or the p0llcc. w
| venture to say that neTer before was such
revolution in the municipal affairs Of "a cit
1 wrought by one man, or, having beef
accomplished, publicly acknowledged AM
boastcd Of.
| Along with these authorized sources o
corruption there has grown up number O
other evils for which the present Admins
tration is also primarily responsible. Whil'
as yet no licenses have been granted tt
| thieves their business has been indirectl,
encouraged by the protection given to dis
reputable pawnbrokers and fences" tt
whom stolen goods are carried and sold. The
Mayor did not state i'll his speech how man,
receivers of stolen goods were on the books
Of the police. But we judge that there nust
be more than fourteen. They have piled
their calling with such Industry that it is
much caster to get back stolen goods than to
prevent their being stolen or to punish the
stealers. The arguments In favor Of a sys-
TEN of licensed licences" are precisely the
same as those which justify public gaul-
bling-houses. The Mayor might have said
that "Men will steal and will dis
pose of their steallngs, and it is bet
ter fot the police to have an under
standing with receivers of stolen goods
than to persecute them and blackmail them."
The same argument can be applied to all
lawbreakers and criminals, and municipal
government in the end be made only col1l-
promise between society and those who prey
upon it.
The business Of the police being now chiefly
to inspect and regulate unlawful institutions,
it follows that law-abiding citizens do not get
the protection which they need. The streets
nre not patrolled with that view; crime Is
notpreyented, but compounded; the youth of
the city are not guarded, and the resorts Of
suspicious and evil characters are not broken
up. There are scores Of places where minors
may take easy lessons in drunkenness, lcwd-
ness, and crime every day Ill the week, Sun
days included. There are headquarters for
thieves as well as for gamblers. There is a
complete league of crime which is, if not
authorized by police headquarters, within
Its immediate knowledge, and tolerated BY
its extraordinary policy of license.
Mayor Harrison went into the Convention
yesterday we'll knowing that he had the sup
port of all the disreputable classes in the
City Of Chicago. His knowledge Of this fact
ought to have moderated his enthusiasm and
made him at least doubtful whether his Ad-
ministration had been In all respects fault
less. But it did not. He justified ami de-
Tended it at all points, and in 30 doing as
su.ned full responsibility for the disgraceful
state of affairs which now exists. 1t will be
the duty Of the decent-lninded and iaw-abid-
Ing classes to hold him to strict account for
it, and TO array themselves as soiidly against
his reelection as the lawbreakers are united
in his favor,
