THE SIXTH WARD.

A Meeting of Citizens to Resolve Rela-
tive to the Levee.
mass meeting of the citizens and ia K
payers of the Sixth ward was held last
evening in Bircher's hall to consider the
question of various Improvements in the
ward that have been pending 80 long in
the board of public works. On motion Of
ex-Ald. Mccarthy Jas. Starkey was called
to the chair, on assuming which he stated
the object of the meeting, after which
Henry Belland was chosen secretary.
Messrs. Mccarthy, Wilde, 4. Lawton and
others addressed the mes4eag, ali express
ing determination to remove the lethargy
that surrounds the board of public works
in relation to the levee construction.
The following preamble and resolutions
were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, The necessity of the construction of
a street or levee along the bank of the Missis-
sippi river in the Sixth ward has long since been
conceded by the state legislature and the muEnc-
ipal government of the city; and
WHEREAS, To that end various measures both
Legislative and municipal have from time to
this often prayed for improvement: and
WHEREAS The property of the citizens OF the
ward has already been condemned and taken fol

Watch Presentation.

Mr.. Joseph Oppenheim, president of the
board of education, was very greatly
pleased man last evening. At the close
of the meeting of the board, Mr. Donnelly
asked the members towait few moments,
as there was some important business to
attend to. He called Mr.. Gilbert to the
chair and asked Mr.. Hamilton to explain
what the business was. That gentleman
proceeded to do so, and stated that when
Mr.. Oppenheim was elected president he
regarded it as great mistake. He feared
that it was a political movement that
would work injury. He was ready to admit
that he was mistaken and that
Mr.. Oppenheim had made a most
excellent, industrious and energetic presi-
dent, and that he had performed his duties
IN most admirable manner. The abuse
heaped upon the president by the German
papers was an insult to the board. So far
as the abuse of the paper applied to him
(Hamilton), it made no difference. It
passed by him like the idle wind and he
never would refer to it, but such attacks
upon the president of the board was a
different matter. That was an insult to
the board that panied him. These mat

could not see why the board
should not go forward now in a
spirit of harmony. The schools of
st. Paul were not what they ought to be
but they will be improved Mr. Hamilton
then called attention to the progress and
improvement of the schools under Mr.. OPP
penheim's presidency, and asked him to
accept as token of the respect and es-
TEEN the members of the board had for
him, of the watch he then held in his hand
encased in handsome morocco case.
The presentation was a case of genuine
surprise. Mr.. Oppenheim received the
watch and managed to say that under the
circumstances he felt that he
was called upon to say some
thing more than merely "Thank you,"
but while he felt thus he did not know
what to say or how to express himself. He
had endeavored TO do his duty conscien-
tiously and according to his best judg-
ment, and he hoped that those who diff
fered from him would do him the Justice
to reconsider their opinions. He could
not but feel profoundly impressed by the
mark of confidence which the members of
the board had bestowed upon him, and he
hoped the discharge of his duties as a
member of the board hereafter would be
such as to indicate that he was sim
cere and just. He regretted that
he had no home just at present
to invite them to but he would do the best
he could by inviting the members to &C
company him to Ramaley's Ice cream
saloon. The invitation was accepted and
all joined in little social reunion for an
hour or so at Ramaley's. Altogether it
was quite pleasant little affair.

TIE Democratic state committee of
Ohio, is, according to John G. Thompson,
friendly to Hoadly. Mr.. Bargar, the
chairman, was Hoadly delegate in the
state convention. The committee will
work harmoniously with and for Hoadly.
The committee, however, is not friendly to
Pendleton, and will not assist his sena-
tOrial desires, but will advocate Henry B.
Payne, or Bookwalter. This feeling will
not in any degree work injury to the state
ticket, or diminish HOadly's majority a
vote. The committee will not countenance
old Durbin Ward as a senatorial cand1-
date, neither will the senatorial contest be
permitted to engage the public mind to
any extent until after the October election.

Of course Commodore Davidson was

evidently spoke with much feeling. The
kindly faces of his old friends and neigh
bors made an impression upon him which
was not concealed. He referred in pleas
ant manner to a time eighteen years
ago when he came here to
bring General Sherman down from
Fort Smelling. He had now come here to
stay and live among the citizens of st.
Paul. He explained that the naming of
the boat est. Paul. was due to Gen.
Averill and Captain Blakeley. He referred
to his early struggles and tot
he still greater and more serious
ones hehad at st. Louis, and
concluded that the effect of them was to
teach him wisdom. With all his troubles
and Universities had come warm and strong

REPUBLICAN, DECAY III toUA.

Phenomenal and improbable as it may
seem there is prospect worth considering
that the Democrats will carry Iowa this
year. For twenty eight years the state has
always gone Republican by majorities
quite discouraging to Democratic expecta-
lions. The State convention at Des Moi1a5
last week, both in its nominations and
platform, struck a weakening if not fatal
blow. The defeat Of Judge Day, who pro
nounced the prohibition amendment IN
constitutional, was accomplished. he
platform adopted was written By Jas Z
Wilson, who as a party leader is an unsafe.
impolitic, dangerous man, and there Is 10
Republican OF good common sense who
approves it. The majority of the conven-
ton seems to have been of the class who
are too good for this world, and,as they had
the power they nominated men of their
clerical cut, and adopted resolutions on
the liquor question that indicate mid-sum-
uer madness. To add to the folly com
uitted these eminently good Republicans
propose to have prayer meeting cam
paign which will be the climax of senti-
mental nonsense.
Ex-senator Kirkwood, who was a mem
Der of Garfeld's cabinet, says the conven-
zion acted most unwisely and committed
not only a mistake but great wrong in
defeating Day and lowering the respect
paid to decisions of the supreme bench.
He condemns the temperance resolution,
which he says may mean the advance
ment of the principal of constitutional
prohibition or the determination to hold
it in allegiance until the bench is recon
structed. While Mr.. Kirk wood said these
sharp things, he would not go any farther
and say whether he thought the ticket
would be elected or defeated.
The feeling at Davenport and in Scott
county, over the defeat of Judge Day, the
declaration in favor of prohibition and the
support of a protective tariff is bitter and
ressntful. The county usually gives Re-
publican majority of 1,400 or 1850. 1t
is now thought that 5000 of the 1000
votes of the county will be given to the
Democratic ticket.
State Senator Wright of Council Bluffs,
Che home of Reed who was nominated
over Day, says the temperance resolution
Is trucking and two-faced. Senator Shro-
scr is 80 much incensed at the defeat OF
Day and disguised with the platform that
he announces he will not be candidate
for reelection as he had intended to be
as he will not vote the Republican state
ticket.

The July Meeting HeId-The German
Question Wins by Close Vote. -
The Board of Education held its regular
meeting for July last evening, with every
member present. =
The annual report of the treasurer
showed 1858, 179. So receipts, and expendi-
lures $326,767.1O, leaving balance of
So, 392.49.
UThelreport suggested that the teachers be
pRid the first part of each month except
the closing month of the year. He also
suggested that the bank designated as de-
pository for the funds should be an institu-
ton willing to advance funds when the
board desired.
The committee on real estate reported
that the high school furniture had been re-
moved from the building owned by Mr.
Lindeke, and the buiIGiu5 tprned over to
the owner on July 1.
They also reported that the Adams
school would not be completed in time for
the opening of the schools in the fall.
The following janitors were reported
from the committee and duly appointed:
High school, James Gear; Franklin, w.
R. Johnston; Madison, n. Stadtfeld; Lin
coin, j. Ferguson; Van Buren,, August

engineer of high school, VIM. Stephens.
Mr.. Benz, from the special committee on
insurance, submitted report reducing
the insurance on the buildings and prop
erty about $4,000. The report was refer
red to the committee on real estate
Two reports were received from the
committee to whom the study of German
was referred. The majority report favored
continuing the teahcing of German, but to
have it optional with the pupils, and the
recitations to be outside of school hours.
The minority report favored the study as
heretofore in all buildings where there is a
separate room. and in the other buildings
where there is no separate room at such
times as may be arranged, outside of
school hours if possible.
After considerable debate both reports
were lost by tie vote of 6 to 6. The
question then came direct upon the reso-
luton excluding German from all the
schools save the high school, and there
making it optional. This was lost by the
following vote:
