The STREET RAILWAY,
AT a meeting of the Board of Alder
men held on Monday evening, an ordin-
ance was passed in relation to the street
which embraces all the ideas which con-
trolled the corporators in asking the
privileges now granted, free from the
restrictions upon which we commented
some time since as embraced in the
original ordinance. Bonds will be issued
as soon as printed; and Capt. McLoud
goes to New York to-day for thaf. purpose.
This Is another step forward in the
progress of Asheville towards city life.
It is gratifying to note how much has
already been done in this direction by a
town of six thousand people. There is
now in existence a system of electric
lighting not equalled in North Carolina;
there is in partial existence, and with
large addition now under construction a
system of water works with exhaustless
supply of pure mountain water, to be
distributed through every part of the
city; there are four miles or more of
maeadamized streets, and g large addi-
ton to street improvement Just under
taken; there are some of the finest hotels
here in the South there are three banks;
there are three large tobacco warehouses,
nneaeroRs faetur5es: there ere three
7t5a briggs sfoss the rivers here, and
there are other improvements, in pro
gress public and private which indicate
even still more significant develop
ment. -

an organization of the State Democracy
and an appeal to the Democrallc party
to make an effort to correct the evils
complained Of In the line OF this APP
peal to the party they hope to induce
able and experienced leaders of the
Democratic party to become candidates
for the General Assembly in their re-
SpcCtlve counties before the party IN
such counties. Tney hope to rtorgan-
lze the State Democracy, in the city
of Baltimore with such material as will
at once command the confidence, re-
speCt and support OF the great body OF
the party in the city and State. By
appealing to the party in the CouIiics
TO relieve itself from notorious and adj
united evils and Encouragement, they
hope TO restore the Democratic party
to its old hold on the affection and
to purge it of the abuses which now SO
seriously impair its strength and use
Iul:1ess and jeopardrze its life in this
State. They believe that wh,n this
appeal is made by an open canvass Of
the State on the stump and IN the press
it will be responded TO by the Demo
crazy of the State, who will sink all
personal antagonisms and will reorsan-
lze the State Democracy on the firm
basis of Democratic principle and pub
lie confidence. The gentlemen con-
Quoting this movement insist that there
is no personal object in it; that no
personal aspiration or selfish motive
has any Influence or gives any direction
to it. Candidates to represent it must
be selected by public opinion as most
fit in their lives and character. to be
the proper opponents of the principles
announced and the issues made by the
movement"

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND treated Con-
gross and the country at large To- sec
ond annual message on Monday. 1t
cannot be considered in any sense a
remarkable document, unless its vague
and indefinite declarations on the tariff
question entl'le it to that distinction
As we'll as Mr.. Cleveland's opinions
can be ascertalaed in his message, he
is a self-contessed free-trader. And yet
his utterances are not acceptable to
prominent free trade journals, the Phil
adelphla Rcfo,d thinking that it IS
neither dignified or polite to lug into
it (hs message) "a labored indefinite
ness in regard to the tariff" On Civil
Service Reform the President is too
aggressive by half to suit the Demo
cratic leaders. Taken as a whole it
may be justly said of the message that
at leaves the impression that there are
a great many tangled threads in public
affairs and that Mr.. Cleveland is unable
10 unravel them.

LAST week we commented upon the
absurdties and inconsistencies of the
petty system of competitive bids adop-
ted by the Government, and showed in
the case of the mail route between Elk
ton and Appleton, the starvation rates
paid 10y the Postofice Department for
that service. Mr. John Seth has since
informed US that the Department is now
allowing him 5000 for carrying this
mail until the 10Th of une next, an
advance of ST over the amount stated
by US as received by him. Another in-
stance illustrative of the beauties of this
competitive system comes from Wash
