CITY AFFAIRS.

The meeting on Monday night
may be the beginning of the end,
or it may amount to nothing. All
present acknowledged the previous
wasteful management of the public
money, acknowledged our urgent
need of better police force, and spoke
feelingly of the present danger to
citizen and city, to life and proper
ty lying patent in such a condition
of affairs.
The facts are beyond question,
and the only thing now is to trans
late conviction into action. If this
may be done by the united action of
our citizens, the future of our city
is assured for just now she is on the
high tide of prosperity which leads
to fortune But her rivals are ca
ger in the race Palatka's marvel
Gus advantages cannot assure
her position without the intelligent
action of her people, and if the
ball of fortune once roll from our
feet it will require hard effort and a
long race to regain it.
In view of the probable call for a
mass meeting by the committee just
appointed, we wish to urge the inn
possibility of decIination by any
candidate named. If the committee

do our duty, in her growth we shall

The gentlemen capable of uniting
the elements of our population in
such an effort as is now required are
very few; our need is urgent, our
duty plain.

Judge Hilton, of the Economist,
accuses THE News of eliminating"
that there is no constitutional power
vested in our legislature, paid or
not, whereby money can be legally
voted for the New Orleans show.
The gentleman is entirely wrong;
we take pride in saying that we
never eliminate" anything on such a
question.
We stated squarely our honest
conviction that the governor had no
authority to call an extra session for
any such purpose; we stated just as
plainly that if the legislature was
convened we could see no power
given it by which an appropriation
for such purpose could be legally
made, but we said also that if a SEES
sion was called, we did hope no
member would hesitate to take hon
est pay for services honestly per
formed. Even though a session
should be called without constitu-
tional authority, if it was convened
under the forms of the law, we
think each member would be emit
tied to his mileage and per diem.
We were satisfied Gov Bloxham
would not call the session unless he
could legally do so. If the legisla-
ture found itself convened illegally,
we hope it would simply say the
governor had exceeded his powers,
and adjourn siue die, but even I'M
der such circumstances each member
would be entitled, in all equity, tc
his pay.
We thought Gov Bloxham would
never call the session, because we
believed it illegal; we think these
extrayagant appropriations by con
gress and legislatures should be
Immediately stopped by vigorous
protest from press and people, but
honesty in public affairs is not diff
ferent from honesty in private bust
ness, where it is always allowed thai

in good money.
But despite the hue and cry lee
by such influential politicians as DR.
Harris and Senator Mann, W,
were never apprehensive that Gov
Bloxham would call session unless
it was authorized by law; conse
quently we have never thought i
necessary to give hard facts and tn,

convincingly.

may it prosper and rejoice in an
ever increasing constituency of

We call the attention of our read

1t seems to us that England is a
little too previous in her request
that we help her fight the dynami-
tiers. The democrats at least should
remember enough of Jefferson's
warnings to beware of "entangling
alliances" When we had civil
war on our hands, she was very
careful to pay attention only to her
own interests. There would be po-
etc justice in commencing her sell
tishness by our own conduct just
now. Ochiltree and his like, with
the apes of the aristocrats in con-
gress, may together be too many for
the wise to control, but our interests
seek no outlet in that direction now.
