Of blessing TO the poor wonder II The
name Mahomet, or Confuclous. or Buddha
unlocks mems hearts for charity as does
the name Of Christ DO the poor Of other
faiths and other lands rejoice upon their
natal days and bless the Almighty for their
coming. Let us hope so; but we KNOW
that wherever the cross points skyward as
the sacred symbol of Christian faith, the
hearts of the poor will be made glad in the
revelation that Christ has come and is here
to-day. We need not to see him In the
flesh, as when he walked on the stormy sea
Of Galilee OF rose tTansfigured from the
Mount. The eye of faith sees In the work
he has accomplished as tangible evidence
of his being, as Moses had amid the
thunders of Sinai. or as Elijah had as lie
sped heaYenwar1 in his chariot of fie.
Aud so remembering the poor with an
extra and generous bounty, let our hearts
rejoice with thankfulness and praise.
Perhaps before another Christmas shall
roll around some of us may realize some-
where away be, ond the stars, the life
dream of crowns of light, and harps Of
gold and streets of Orient pearl. Perhaps
not, but If all sha end in unbroken and
everlasting silence we shall be no worse of
for the belief and the hope which was our
sheet-anchor, and our consolation here,
and which, when the eye grew dim and
the heart beat faint, enabled us to walk
unfalteringly and bravey up to the grim
portals that divide eternity from time,
chanting in a c eerful voice the hopeful
anthem of the psalmist: Though | walk
through the va ley of the shadow of deaf b
1 will fear no evil, for thou art with me-
thy rod and thy staff they comfort me-"
! Yours truly,
BROADBRIM.

TEHE SUN.
For 1889,


Some people agree with THE SUMS opinions
about men and things, and some people don't;
but everybody likes to get hold of the newspaper
which is never dull and never afraid TO speak
its mind
Democrats know that for twenty years THH
SUN has fought In the front line for Democratic
principles, never wayering or weakening IN its
loyalty TO the true interests OF the partyIt serve
with fearless intelligence and disinterested vIg-
or. AT times opinions have differed as to the
best means Of accomplishing the common purs
pose; 1t is not THE SUNS fault II 1t has seen fur
ther into the milestone.
Eighteen hundred and ninety is the year that
will probably determine the result Of the FreS
Dental election Of 1892, and perhaps the fortunes
OF the Democracy for the rest Of the century,
Victory in 1892 is duty, and the beginning Of
1890 is the best time to start out in company with

one else would be supposed to heed the re-
quest of the Board.
The nroprietors of the Cafe Royal and
Diamond Saloons filed petitions to conduct
their business.
Colonel ]. W. Guthrie appeared before
the Board and asked permission for the
military companies to use A street, from
Tenth to Twelfth, as a shooting range.
There was no street there, and probably
never would be. The regiment proposed
to have il surveyed and then construct a
range, where they could shoot at all times
of the year. They intended to expend
about $500 in building bulkheads and
stands.
The matter was referred to the Street
Commissioner, with full power to act.
Isaac Joseph appeared before the Board
and asked whether or not any conclusion
had been reached concerning the matter of
the city paying any portion of the expense
of paving Oak Avenue, He said it had
been put off from week to week, and the
citizens interested wanted the thing settled
one way or the other.
He was informed that the City Attorney
had not yet rendered an opinion in the
matter.
Mr. Joseph said he was weary of dane
ing attendance on the Board week after
week, and the property owners along the
avenue were weary of the delay, and SO
were the contractors who did the work.
Oak Avenue, he said, is not an alley, and
is entitled to its snare of the special fund
voted for street improvement,
Trustee Mclaughlin asked Mr.. Joseph
what the Oak Avenue people intended to
do if the Boord should see tit not to allow
one-fourth of the expense.
Mr.. Joseph replied that they would OPP
pose the payment by the city of any portion
of the expense for street work commenced
prior to the bond election. Oak Avenue,
between Fifth and Sixth. and K, he said,
had been widened twenty feet from its orr
ginal lines. and was accepted by the city as
street. Therefore it was entitled to its
share of the money.
After some further discussion the matter
went over another week.
The matter of H. G. Megerle's allege
double assessment for taxes was taken up.
1t was shown that the petitioner was two
years behind on his taxes for 1889 and the
Board decided that if the arrearages were
paid up it would consider the matter of re-
ducing the assessment levied for the pres
ent year.
A resolution was passed ordering the i'm
provement of Fourth street, from R to 8,
by rounding up.
The Board then adjourned.
