Oh! He Has Got Them.

Got what?
Why, the best line Of cheap suitings In
the city, and as low as S22. so, and some OF
them are perfect beauties. and as for his
trouserings, you should just see what he
puts up for five dollars.
You don't say he puts up good pair of
pants for five dollars?
Yes, sir; that's all l paid for these, and
! can't see for my life the difference be-
tween his five dollar pants and some /
priced other places for seven to seven-fifty,
and l am positive they are trimmed and
made as well, and as for the cutting, Mr..
Phillips says that his cutter, Mr.. John
Oettlin, cuts the best pair Of pants of any
cutter that he has ever had, and he being
the oldest merchant tailor in the city, and
having had some of the best cutters that
could be found in the country, ought to
know what he is talking about; and hear
other disinterested parties say, also, that
he cuts splendid garment, and excels
anything in the city on pants.
But has he the fine trade? l should
think. his prices being SO low, the ''bon ton"
would not go there.
There is where you are mistaken; he has
some of the dressiest people in the city as
customers, and you can rest assured they
know what's what, and want as much for
their money as any one else, but they must
be put up in good style or it is n.g.
Well, want suit, extra pair of pants
and spring oyercoat, and | will just go to

their work. The first trial, as understand
it. was made in Dayton, city full of the
most bitter and relentless partisans on both
sides. Its success for good, has been be-
yond the most sanguine expectation OF its
friends, and its influence and effect has
been only for good.
How ridiculous claim that every lamp
post set, that every street crossing made, or
every cart load of dirt hauled, must be
done in accordance with either republican
or democratic national platform. When
men get down so low on their knees to wor-
ship at the shrine of such party spirit,
their usefulness for good In any broad
sense has gone and they have sunk the pub
lie interests out of sight.
But Mr.. Rawlins is not alone in his
pleading for keeping paid officers in the
family. There are democrats who hold
the same views, and for the same reasons.
But whether held by democrats or repub-
licans, the holding is just as antagOnistic
to the best good of the people. have
seen its effect, and know that you cannot
make a partisan board, in the spirit now
contended for, without placing that board
under obligations for serving the party at
the expense of the people.
Why not adopt this new plan for the
good it offers and make it more efficient, by
thoroughly committing thereto, both
parties?
If this plan is adopted without the nom
partisan feature, and two parties are all
the time cOntending for the mastery, much
of its good will be sacrificed, and uselessly
sacrificed. to the whims Of impractical men,
and partisans, who have no interests in
these boards, except to seek and hold office.
Adopt plan with this new feature, and
the city rests in quiet and security, in SO
far as its material and moral interests and
good government, are concerned.
Adopt any plan resting upon party ba-
sis, making the city's interests play for
political power and plunder, and there Is
neither security nor peace nor good gov
eminent.
Adopt this plan, and with good men in
office you will have better government
than you have ever had; whilst with bad
men even. you could not have very bad
government, because of the checks which
will hold them back. Reject this plan and
go along under the old system, and with
the best men you cannot have govern
ment equal to your wishes; whilst with bad
men you can have q government beneath
which all interests will suffer without a
remedy.
Why, then, throw away all prospect and
assurance for good on mere squabble
about spOils, and unmanly conventions?
