One of the plans talked up by the Taxpayers
was to have Alderman Knowlton hold over,
but We doubt very much if they would have
dared to attempt it. At Mondays proceedings,
Mr.. knowlton, with his usual modesty and
generosity, stepped aside for the man who was
not elected, stating that ''Mr. Haney repre-
sents me-" If that announcement had been
made on election day, it would have ensured
Mr.. Pitchers election by at least fifty majority.
Neither Mr.. Knowton nor Mr.. Knowlton's rep
resentative could have been elected in Ward 3.

1t is a strange state of affairs when ward
clerk undertakes to elect an alderman. If this
precedent is allowed to stand there will he no
occasion in the future to 20 to the polls. The
ward clerks will attend to that. In the ward
two case there was not even Il plausible pre-
tense for claiming the election of Mr.. Haney,
and when the polls closed it was announced
that there was no election for alderman. Sub
sequently Mr.. Haney was elected by the Alder
man-eect from ward one, an alleged lawyer,
through the instrumentaity CT the ward clerk.

The board of assessors think that an item in
last weeks journal reflects rather severely on
them, and it certainly is open to that con-
struction. 1t was not our intention, however,
to impugn the integrity of the asse>sors and
we feel bound to accept the declaration of one
of them that no question of politics or religion
on other consideration, has Influenced his dis
charge of duty. The inference must therefore
be that in one of the cases We had in mind the
parties assessed misrepresented matters to the
assessors. In another case it is hard to account
for the inequality, which bears heavily on a
TaX-reducer. OF course there are certain UNI
ayoidable inequalities in taxation, but this does
not seem to be one of them.
