The 14th prcx has been determined on
by the council. as the date to fill the va
cancy in the scoDd word. This was done
under the statute requiring twenty days
notice for an election to ill vacancy, he
Republicans have announced their pur-
pose to disregard this action Of the council
and vote for two candidates on the 5th.
There reason for doing this is somewhat
hard to fathom, unless it is, that all three
judges of election being republican, they
hope to run in votes that are under the
statute clearly irregular The election laws
Of 1879 state in 8 So: IF more persons
are designated for any Office than there are
candidates to be electe6-such part of
the ticket shall not be counted for either
of the candidates" Taking one consider
alton with another it would be a very
graceful thing for one Of the three Repub-
lican judges Of election in that ward to
resign and make place for a Democrat.

will deny, and we have no doubt
that in time some such change
will be made, but the advocates of

worse state of things than really exist.
They should have been content with the
assertion that the water we received from

from the rapids, but in their haste aud
eagerness they must goJoutside of that and
try to make cut, what no man

The report that Attorney General Nc
Veagh is thinking Of resigning is probably
without foundation, but it and some othe1
similar rnmors that have been sent over
the wires lately are strong proof of the
existence of feeling, that's the reverse Of
harmonious, in the Republican camp.
Garfield has, in his attempts to please
all factions Of the party succeed in stirring
up some as pretty rows. as man could vel
hope to, in the short time he has been in
Office; nomination made to placate one
wing would only have the effect of making
the other mad. and reversal of ;favors
the next day would not seem to carry with
it that pacifyiDg effect, that the president
fondly hoped for. Federal patronage is a
good thing for the receiver but it is death
on the dispenser.

of school of political economy in this city
under the tuition of Mayor Carse and hi
fellows on the ticket. The first course Of
lectures will be on 'thow to borrow money

by assertions on the moral effect of dykes
and the influence of Rock Island water on
the mental powers. The promised course
is an instructive one. and it is to be hoped
that the voters will. by their action on the

devote his full time to the undertaking.
