The REASON WHY BATTgRN
STREET CRADE Il DELINQUENT.

Because IL never has been completed
according to contract. The City Sur
vevor made a mistake of over $500 in
the amount of excavation, and pus in q
box drain. which Was not called for and
Is useless, at n cost Of over 5000, and
the sidewalk was put down in a cheap
ened manner from contract. and no
rebate allowed for such cheapened
work. There was considerable side
walk we paid for by order OF the City
Council but short time before, and the
contractor used the same and charged
us at the rate Of SIS per thousand feet,
and allowed as no rebate for the lumber
30 used. We petitioned the City Conn
oil at txo different times to make a Just
rebate for work not performed, and
declared we were ready and willing to
pay what was Just, but they refused to
grant our petition. and We refused to
pay an unjust bill to fill the pockets of
unjust men, and concluded to wait until
there was Council that would render
justice. We are ready to pay what is
right. a. We have offered 10 do, and not
saddle II on the general fund either.
Il. CALvKRT.
l.. Il. LEBALLfsTER.
W. X. PHILLIPS,
The foregoing has the right sound to
il. These people. rather than DO
wronged and oppressed. have deter
mined 10 make an honest and honor
able resistance, not for the purpose of
escaping their rightful burden. but of
carrying only what belonged TO them,
ard reproving attempted imposition
and fraud. Their cases are quite diff.
ferent from those of other individuals,
who, by all manner of technloa ities,
quibbles and delays. are eudeavoriug
dishonesty to evade their just charges.
Under the circumstances, 10 will be an
safe u elect such men to positions OF
municipal trust. No man who owes
the city dollar. with out good
cause for owing il. should be put into one
of these places. Among these delinquents
are j. b. Metcalfe nearly $500, III. l..
Yesler $50, J. +. Mcknight 5000 and
B. +. Day x274. Thomas Clancy, q
nominee who has Withdrawn from the
fight. is also behind to the extent Of
$500. In the case of such men as Day
aud Clancy the situation Ia aggravated,
for as members of the Council they
voted for the improvement OF the streets
fronting their property, they got the
benefit Of the work done, and now they
apparently repadiate their share of ths
pnyment. A load of seventy or eighty
thousand dollars May be showed of the
shoulders of a few private Individuals
upon the citv by the action, inaction or
wrong action OF the city government
during the next year, aud II behooves
all who have the good of the town at
heart 10 do what they can TO prevent
such isiquity, by eleoting men 10 repre-
sent them whose records In this par
ticular are clean and nnimpeachable.

European Socialism

London, 15.-In Berlin, to-day, it
is emi=oHicially announced that
the principal 20 wers of Europe had
agreed to join in the confederation
proposed jointly by Germany and
France for the suppression OF all
ansrchical forms of socialism. The
announcement was, however,
coupled with the statement that
the country most necessary to the
success OF the confederation,
Switzerland, had finally un.
reservedIy refused to join. The
Swiss FEDERAL council in note of
destination, takes the position that
the nature. of the government OF
Switzerland forbids and renders un-
necessary the espionage and dis
elimination prOpo ed, and states
that so far as Swiss experience has
shown the SO called anarchists are a
vulgar and uninfuential lot of
criminals, easily made amendable

that the action of the House of Re-

sion of sympathy with the German
people in their great loas, and the
House has no concern with those
relations between legislative and

which prevented that
of sympathy from reach

FITZ-JOHN'S CASE.

Wa-hingtcn. I5.-It has been un-
derstood that the Fitz John Porter
bill, having been returned 10 the
House for its concurrence in the
Senate amendment, it would go to
the foot Of the list of measures on
the Speakers table, and be covered
by loo Senate bills now lying there.
A gentleman we'll posted in the
rules practiced by the House, stated
today, however, that this bill under
the rules was readily accessible and
could be taken up any day when the
majority desired Under the rules,
after the morning hour had expired,
a motion to go the Speakers table
may be carried by a mejority vote.
The order of business then is to take
up the first executive communities
tons, which are generally disposed
OF as they are received; next, to
take up bills returned to the House
from the Senate with amendments.
Under this heading the Fitz.John
Porter bill would b. quickly reached,
as there are but one Or two measures
ahead of it, so the dill whicn many
thought was pigeon hGIed for a
while, may be brought up any day.
1t is expected by some memb rs
that it will be taken Up The first part
of next week.
