WORK ON MARKET STREET.

South Market street looked quite lively
yesterday. Concrete work commenced
and was being pushed by good sizet
force of men. The grading was nearly
completed to Douglas Avenue and work or
the curbing commenced at English street
On North Market it was scene of de.
struction. or at least of tearing down. The
curb and guttering on the west side of tn {
street between First and Streets was BEING
removed. Mr.. Geo. H. Blackwelder. who
had paid for good deal of it did not en-
| joy the change He said if he had discov
cred that work of that kind was going on
| in time to save it he would have presented
| an Injunction, but it was too late when he
found it out. 1t is proposed to lower the
grade on the corner of First and Market
| four inches and at Second street about fif-
teen inches. The Sedgwick block grade
| for sidewalk, curb and guttering has al
| ready been changed three times and this
calls for a fourth and to get uniformity the
curb and guttsring on First will be
changed calling for change of all the
sidewalk. On Market street where the
changes were commenced yesterday the
| cement blocks will be used making curb
and guttering about equal to sandstone or
at least resembling it in appearance.
IN MEMORIAM
In memory of Mrs. Ruth Lawson. who
departed this life October II.
The good soul suffered much in her last
moments until the silent messenger re-
lieved her of her pain. She will be missed
by her many friends who are deeply panied
to learn of her sad death. Mrs Lawson
was noble woman, and to know her well
was to love her much. Possessed of educa-
ton, refinement and culture, imbued with
the Christian graces and endowed with a
generous heart, she was well fitted for the
mission of love and mercy which she filled
on earth. Mrs. Lawson was the mother of
Mrs. Charles A Stafford. who is we'll
known here by many friends who tender
her their sincere sympathy.
Thou art sleeping now in deaths cold
embrace,
The Lord hath called thee with him to
dwell,
On thy placid brow there is not trace
OF sutferings left the tile to tell
And as gaze on thy pale, sweet face,
/ hear a voice murmur: All is well.
Thy sun of life hath gone down in the
West,
Never to rise on this earth any more;
The loving hands crossed on thy quiet
breast.
All toll is ended. all pain is DER:
May thy beautiful soul forever rest.
May you sing with the angels, Gloria in
Excelsis.
Mrs NJ. A. TANGNEY.

FOR 1880
And for the Democracy.

The Sun believes that the campaign for
the election of Democratic Congress in
1890 and Democratic President in 1892
should begin on or about the fourth of
next March. The Sun will be on hand
at the beginning and until the end of the
most interesting and important political
conflict since the war, doing its honest
utmost, as ever, to secure the triumph of
the Democratic party and the permanent
supremacy of the principles held by JEFF
ferson jackson and Tilden
The great fact of the year is the return
to absolute power of the common enemy
of all good Democrats-the political or
ganization for whose overthrow the Sun
fought at the front for fifteen years. the
memorable years of Grant and the Fraud
Hayes and Garfield and Arthur.
1t is the same old enemy that Demo
Gratis now confront, and be will be in
trenched in the same strong position. II
has been carried once by brave and hope
full fighting. Do you not believe with The
Sun that the thing can be done againf
Wait and see.
The hope of the Democracy is in the
loyal efforts of a united press, cherishing
no memories of past difference in non
essentials, forgetting everything but the
lessons of experience, and that victory is
duty.
Probably you know The Sun already as
newspaper which gets all the news and
prints it in incomparably interest
ing shape; which chronicles facts
as they occur and tells the truth
about men and events with absolute
fearlessness, making the completest and
most entertaining journal published any
where on earth, and which sells its opin-
ions only to its subscribers and purchas.
