THn OBSERVANCE Of the Fourth In this
city was quiet enough during the day, q
result no doubt largely due to the rainy
weather, but the night was fairly made
hideous with noisy demonstrations. Market
street was crowded with people until late
hour, and the deafening din of cannon
crackers, mingled with the whiz of rockets
and binding glare of other fireworks, was
almost incessant. There was less damage
by fire than usual for which the elements
can be thanked, but there was much dis
orderly conduct and two serious affrays be-
tween negroes, both of which are likely to
result fatally. The accidents, fortunately
were not numerous, but several people
narrowly escaped serious injury from the In
discriminate use of fireworks and
firearms. In summing up, it can b'
| truly said that we were fortunate u
escape so easily. However, there is ne
necessity for again incurring the danger ant
anxiety incident to the prevailing manner o
celebrating the Fourth of July and l
Council will only start to work at once an
pass an ordinance prohibiting the use 0
fireworks and the discharge of firearm
within the city limits at all times, ou
future Fourth of July celebrations will
as quiet and rational as Philadelphia's ar
under the judicious and effective admins
tration of Mayor King.

IT IS REALLY too bad for Mayor Wales
'model' police force to be getting into dis

with the intention of showing the public
what elegant guardians of the peace would

Carpenter simply because they wanted the

THE "RING" received another slap from
the City Council, on Monday evening, in the
election of Lewis Zebley as Street Com
missioner. The result was only accomplish
ed after bitter struggle, and although the
"Ring" had sufficient strength in the
the caucus to nominate their can
didate, they knew they could not
consummate his election and therefore were
forced to agree to Mr.. Zebley. The latter is
gentleman of excellent character and good
reputation, but his ability to discharge the
important and perplexing duties of hi
responsible position can only be proved by
his official course.

From Christmas to the Fourth
of July, whatever the Alma
macs say, is the spring half
year of trade.
The first part of this period
has to be used in recovering
our balance after the strain OF
the busiest time of all the year,
and in preparation for the
next busiest. The second
part is usually a period o.
great steadiness of trade. But
the past month or two has
been marked by a singular
furry with us, on account o
the extraordinary breaking 0
prices.
Now is the time when thu
summer slacknecs of trade
begins; and SO when we cal
look obout us and gather to
gether the remnants of goods
the debris of stocks, the odd
and ends, the sighted, the re
iected; when you expect sucl
things to be sold for whateve
they'll quickly fetch.
We expect to do thes
things with even more tha,
common liberality; and t
point out, from day to day a
: they occur, some of the oppol
: tunities to pick up usefu

ell to make room for the negro Clayton, has

mittee healed his wounded spirit by giving
him the position of Collector in the Water
Department. If this thing goes on much

WELLINGTON. WEDNESDAY,, JULY O.
cnrIons Colncldeneea.

The Philadelphia Times discovers a few
perplexing condolences growing out Of the
election Of General Keifer as Speaker of the
House of Representatives. The first is that
in appointing his committees the Speaker
selected Benjamin w. Harris, George NJ.
Robeson and Alfred G. Harmer as the
first three members of the Naval Com
mittee, while the Committee on Naval
Expenditures, whose business 1t is to see
that the Naval Committee does not spend
too much of the peoples money, is headed
with the names of George M. Robson,
Benjamin w. Harris and Alfred c. Harmer.
Thus, by this curious coincidence, Speaker
Keifcr appointed Messrs. Robson, Harris
and Harmer a committee to see that the ex-
penditures of Messrs. Harris, Robson and
Harmer were kept within bounds.
Another little coincidence discovered by
the Times is that when a committee report
was presented TO the House several years
ago, rejecting severely upon Robeson's
management of the Navy Department, q
minority report was presented by two mem
bers of the committee, who complimented
Robeson's administration of naval affair:
in the highest manner. These two dissenters
were Benz. w. Harris and Alfred G. Harmer,
who are now the colleagues of Robeson, on
the naval and naval expenditures com
mittees.
Curious condolences often happen In
human affairs, but not even the "marines'
would credit Speaker Keifer with lack Of
intention in thus arranging his material fol
the House Committees. The assembling O
a Republican Congress and the election o
Keifer as Speaker were the signal for thu
opening of the doors to the jobbers and lob
byists who had been fairly starved ou
while the Democrats controlled Fedora
legislation. The large surplus in tn
treasury, accumulated from the exces
sive and burdensome taxation uselessly i'm
posed upon people, was a temptation tha
could not be withstood, and the enormou
sums to be expended under the various al
preparations show how the jobbers graspe
this opportunity to revel in their old tim
vocation. Regardless of how the peopl
suffer from the high prices of living, tn
Republican Congress at Washington refuse
TO relieve their burdens, and increased tn
public expenditures to the highest poin
This is the result of the coincidence" thi
made Keifer Speaker, and shaped his con
mittees with such peculiar results.
