The Dirt Flying.

Dirt has been flying to and fro about
the Military plaza city hall for a long
time now, and this morning at 8
o'clock the administration began to
throw it in real earnest, ground being
broken at that hour by about eighteen
Mexican laborers, four mules and a
pillow, for the new city hall foundation;
Contractor Ed. Braden set up several
kegs of beer and a great lunch of sau-
sage, cheese and bread and called the
multitude to eat and drink. City
Weigher Sanchez served the lunch
and Henry Krempkau tapped the
beer. There were lots of professional
orators and politicians present, but no
speeches were made.
Contractor Braden expects to have
the hole dug in about two weeks.

hours were spent in knocking the ball about,
and stopping and catching it. The ten men
were Hines, Boyle, Healy. Shreve, Moffet,
Bassstt, Buckley, Seery, Esterbrook and Be-
CART Healy was tho only one
of the number who had had
any such practice since last fall and most
of the men appeared to enjoy it thoroughly.
Boyle was as lively colt, and Bassett handled

The park is not yet in playing condition, the

a Trick TO Injuro squire smock.

Some peculiar facts are coming to light re-
garding the suit brought against Squire Smock
for political purposes, in the name of James L.
Wheeler and they demonstrate that the mem
bers Of the gang are still ready to stoop to any
thing, no matter how dishonest, in order to gain
political point. Al inspection of the complaint
yesterday revealed the fact that the signature of
Mr. VIII eeler was written in the same hand as
the body OF the complaint, and as it was known
evident that the signature was not his. An
other strange feature in the complaint was that
the plaintiff had not sworn to it's allegation.
The suit looked as il it had been
prepared and filed without the knowledge of Mr..
Wheeer. He was at his home on North
Mssis sippi street by a Journal reporter last
night, and on being requested to state what he
knew about the case he said: 81 have just got
out OF bed after being sick two weeks, and re-
ally do not know what has been going on. As
soon as I am able to get eut intend TO set my
self right in the matter, but do not feel like
making statement tonight"

The additional suits which it is said were be-
ing prepared have not been filed yet, and they
probably will not be since the exposure of the
scheme in this case.

Trustee Many, with Less Money than
His Predecessor, Does Better Work.
He Meets Current Expenses Without Creating
Debt and Reduces That Left by Ktz-A
Despicable Campaign Trick Exposed.

The twisting and willful INSTRUMENTATION OF
figures to which the Democrats, favoring the
election Of s. N Gold as township trustee, are
resorting. cannot destroy the damaging fact
that Ernest Kitz. the last Democratic trustee.
after being in Office four years, left township
debt of So, 900 for his successor to face How
well Capt. Many has fulfilled his trust to the
people. with this burden, created by Democratic
extravaganza. to carry, the following from the
books OF the Office show: Kitz was trustee for
two consecutive terms, and during his four years
expended from the township resources $196, .0s
In addition he contracted debt OF $64, 900, max
ing in all for which he is responsible $3.50
an average expenditure OF $64, 02a77. Compared
with this Captain Many. during his first year in
Office expended only $40, 400 AZ, and the second
year $43. 263. 80 He had a balance March l. of
this year of $12. 4O4. 60. His average expendi-
ture on the $50. 1873 q for his two years was
$42, 866 66, as compared with the $64 029 II, the
average of Kitz.
In addition to this showing OF affairs well
managed, Many 1auidated the claim of teachers
for $4, 900, whom Kitz left unpaid, reducing the
debt to 100000, and the LIST of October last he
paid additional sum of $4,000 on the debt.
bringing it down TO $54.0 900. During the same
period he also paid out So GOO interest on the
debt. Captain Many never gave but one time
warrant, and that, for only $780, has been paid.
| He has warrant of any kind out now against
| the township, or any other funds
1t is also sought to place the Captain in the po-
| sition OF expanding more for assistance than
| kitz did. The latter paid one of his assistants
| $l5 per week, TWO $12 each, one 81 and his book
keeper $50. The latter item is not spoken of by
those who want Kitzs Office expenses to appear
| as small as possible. They say that altogether
he did not pay more than $40 per week for this
service. when, in fact, he paid out 81,
| compared with the total of $40 paid
out by Captain Many. Tha Captains
| bookkeepes receives only SIS, while Kitz had
| his wife, who received $l2. assist his book
keeper who paid $50. making in all $37, for
| work for which Captain Many pays only $15.
During the winter kitz had an extra man on an
average of four months each year, to whom he
| paid SIS per week. Captain Many had but one
| extra who was kept only three months in the
winter. Another extra man for whom
| the County Commissioners are responsible, and
who is paid by them serves as an outside visitor
