The opposition to waterwork at the
polls was, in the first ward 6, second
ward 81, third ward IS, and fourth
ward g, total 40. The vote for the
waterworks was, in the first ward 1s1,
second ward 2s7, third ward 1873, and
fourth ward 145, total sl1. This il as
nearly unanimous as a popular vote
ever gets to be. We + glad of this,
because this vote not only represents
an overwhelming majority of tax pay
ers, but it also represents an over
whelming proportion of the city'a
property. If a tax is to be assumed
at-all we are glad that it is so generally
and unanimously approved that it will
be cheerfully borne.

We cannot conceive that Mr.. Tilden

THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

The republican nationalconvention met
at Chicago, last Tuesday, and organized
by the election of John. R. Lynch, OF
Mississippi, a negro over, Powell Clay
ton, the Arkansas carpet-bagger, who
had been named by the executive COM
mittee, as temporary chairman.
Gen. John b. Henderson, of Mo-,
was made permanent chairman.
The platform is notable for nothing.
It straddles the tariff question as
gracefully as David Davis did political
questions when he had the itch to be
president of the senate.
The balloting only began yesterday
afternoon. 1t was conducted amid
great excitement as follows:-
First ballot-Arthur, 27S; Blaine,
1872; Edmunds, 80; Logan, 63; Sher-
man, 80; Hawley. II; Gen. Sherman,
IL; Lincoln, 4.
Second ballot-Arthur, 276; Blaine,
$40; Edmunds, Sc; Logan, 81; Sher-
man, %; Hawley, Is; Gen. Sherman,
Il; Lincoln, 4.
Third ballot-Arthur, 275; Blaine,
s75; Edmunds, IS; Logan, 60.
Fourth ballot-Blsine, Ala.
After the nomination of Blaine the
convention adjourned until 1880
O'Clock.
At $3.50 Logan ofIllinois, was nomi.
mated for vice president, by acclama-
ton.
Well, we all did our duty this time.
The waterWorks committee carefully
and at q eat pains secured a good con-
tract, Mr.. E. Winsor, its chairman.
doing most ofthe work, which is cheer.
fully attested by his colleagues. The
council passed the necessary ordinance
unanimously. Mr.. Keller as news
paper correspondent, sent the news
abroad. The Register fought we'll for it
The lntelligehcer printed more matter
in its favor than any and all others.
Mr.. Jas. c. McGrew took the leading
part in its favor as a citizen. Judge
Wood, Col. Rathbun, MI. Hall, Mr..
Davis, Mr.. WinsOr and others aided
with their voices, and last, but above
all, the people responded to the efforts
and arguments made, with their votes.
Tins we have again exemplified that
Lexington can act literally, promptly
and intelligently when her interests
are at stake. She did so when the
subscription to the cannery was neces-
sary; when the subscription to Central
Female College was wanted: when the
subscription to the Wentworth Acade-
my was needed, and finally when the
waterworks were to be secured. W.
have learned the value of cooperation,
fits immense power. If as much had
been done to build up the town every
year since its existence there is no tel
ling wherei it would be by thus time.
Who will say that we cannot do fully
as well every year in the future? W.
are very sure that as our business
grows u ability to give or invest will
increase with it, and we do not believe,
moreover, that anybody has been hurt
by what they have done up to this
time.
