GREAT FENIAN RAIDI
The City Still Under the Control of the In
vading Forest
Brilliant Strategy of the German
Commander

!
Last Friday morning a large force of
Fenians suddenly appeared on Bridge
street, in this city, armed with pick-axes,
shovels, etc., and Immediately began to
throw up earth works. This onslaught
was planned by the distinguished COM
mander of the forces aided by a no less
distinguished F Pennington strategist, and
was so sudden that the opposing forces
were utterly off their guard, but were not
routed, for they were not there. The
Mayor and the Street Committee adopted
Buchanan's Rebellion tactics, first edi-
ton, and requested them TO "please
don't, " and after searching for some or.
dinance bearing on this proceeding they
came to Jimmy Buchanan's conclusion
that these fellows had not right to throw
up earth works, but that there was no law
to prevent them. The invading forces
paid no attention to the ''powers that be, y
aud went on. They put down some sort
of machine" in the iptrenchments and
covered it up. This machine is not likely
to explode, even if tempered with, but it
is believed to be rather dangerous af-
fair to let lie around loose,
The invading forces are still in possess
sion of the captured ground, and SO far
the city seems to be powerlessly in their
possession.

The Sewer on Bridge Street.
Some months ago the authorities of the
Roman Catholic Church in this city asked
permission of the Common Council to lay
sewer from the school house along
Bridge street, to connect with the city
sewer built along Maiu street from Bridge
to Swans Creek, and emptying into
Swans Creek. 1t is believed by many
yersed in the law, that this perm ssion
could only be given by an ordinance regu-
larly passed. But by some means, reso-
luton was hastily passed giving the con-
sent of the city, upon certain conditions.
The work, however, was not to be done
until written agreement was made pro-
periy guarding the interests of the public,
and the work was to be done, (if done),
under the direction of the Street Com
mittee.
The granting of this permission was
felt to be an infringement on the rights of
property holders in the vicinity of the
proposed sewer, and legal efforts were
taken to prevent any action. The Com
mon Council were epjoined by the Su-
preme Court from allowing the work to
be done, and it was supposed that no ac-
ton would be taken until the Court de-
cided the right of the Council to grant
permission. But to the surprise of our
citizens, early last Friday morning some
thirty or forty men began to dig french
on Bridge street for the proposed sewer,
and the men worked as they never worked
before. Even dinner was passed by in
the anxiety to get the work done. By
two or three o'clock the trench had been
dug, the sewer pipe carelessly put in aud
carelessly cemented at joints, and the
trench filled up. Some of our authorities
entered mild protest against the work.
A greater outrage on public rights has
never been committed in this city. What
right the Rev. Father Ter Woert had to
bring gang of men to dig up street
and lay pipe, we are at loss to know.
The contract required by the resolution
of Council had not been executed, and
the Court forbid its execution. Even if
he had the right, the resolution of the
Council also expressly stated that the
work is to be done under the direction of
the Street Committee.
Even granting that the reverend gen
tleman is entitled to all the rights he
claims, his methods were not those usually
practiced by men who know they have
right on their side. The secrecy of be-
ginning the work and the hurry of doing
it, all suggest the consciousness that the
action was questionable if not illegal. A
religious teacher should be the last one to
directly or indirectly encourage defiance
of law and of legal authorities.
The sewer being in, the question, we
suppose is What are you going to dc
about it? ?" We cannot say, but 1t is tc
be hoped that every legal method will be
exhausted to prevent the success of 9
scheme sought TO be accomplished in sc
defiant manner.
