ROOk Controversy.

TO lie hdil0T Of TIE Erenin0 UTitic'
Those who are seeking to expose school
scandals are being called "fault-hnders and
cranks." We are told by ga Parent" In your
issue OF october 80 that the matters consid.
cred are Of no interest to the public. The
question at Issue Is not which bookseller sells
the greatest number Of books, or whether Mr..
Taxpayers are interested In Investigating
whether Mr.. Wilson has made percentages on
booke, school buildings or any school ex'
pense. The board, whether 'owned" or not,
has not been able TO control the actions OF Mr..
Wilson. The only redress for the public is an
appeal TO the press. JUSTICE.

THE political situation in this city is not
calculated to inspire Democrat with any
particular hopefulness or happiness. Al
though the men who can and will vote for
Blaine have been constituting an exodus of
several days duration and very imposing
proportions, there is still enough Blaine en-
thusiasm and confidence in town to make
the election unanimous.
In tho Departments where the question
is of such vital interest and fears and
doubts arc so easily aroused and SO NOR.
bidly brooded over, the utmost confidence
prevails. Those who have doubted doubt
no more. There is degree of happiness
that is delightful. The character and ex-
tent of the majority and how many South
ern States Blaine can carry are about as
much discussed now as the probability of
Blaine's election was a short time ago.

THE local Democrats have gone for some
time on the supposition that the Republi-

that things do not have that appearance.

A GENTLEMAN in this city received yes.
terdny postal from the Democratic Repre-.
sentative in Congress of one of the leading
cities in New York, in which the Repre-
sentative states that Blaine is certain to
carry the Empire State. Coming from the
source it does, this is pretty big straw.

The telegraph pole nuisance is a serious
