OILY M PA
THE ELECTION.

The election is over. 1t may be two or
three months before the finances of the
city can be fixed up in any sort Of shape
by the new city government elected yester-
day, as it does not go into power for a
month yet. If the councilmen whose
terms expire next month have the best in
terests of the city at heart let them, except
McBratney, resign and Mayor Horr do
likewise. The council as then constituted
(McBratney, Sickels, Ward and Ford)
could at once select O'Bmen, TaIcott,
Phipps, McBratney and Springer as the
successors and new election for the vail
dating of the debt in excess of IL per
centum of taxable property and also the
funding of the debt could be called within
the required time Of thirty days. This
would be the best way of Immediately
Strengthening out the finances. Will May
or Horr and his colleagues doit?
The election yesterday was surprise to
some people, principally John Miller Muir
ply, who was defeated for member of the
city council from the First ward by Charles
R. Talcott. The defeat of Mr.. Murphy is a
pretty good indication that the people are
heartily sick and tired Of the blunders of
the present city government. The infusion
Of new blood into the "town board" will
probably get the state capital out of the
rut into which it has fallen by imbeciIity,
twisting and trimming. All of the mem
berselect are under so years of age and are
considered good citizens. They are bust
ness and professional men of known skill
and integrity, and should bring to the dis
charge Of their duties intelligence enough
to keep alive a progressive spirit
for public Improvements. The state
capital cannot afford to be left in mud
hole without rapid transit from one end to
the other much longer, and the TRIBUNE
believes that the new city council ought
to address itself first, to fixing up the
finances Of the municipality; second, to
completing odds and ends of street i'm
provements already commenced; thirdly,
to giving the citizens decent street car
service, and lastly, to the passage of an
ordinance requiring the city treasurer to
place the funds ofthe city equally in all
the banks Of the city and requiring them,
through the city treasures to give a good
and sufficient bond for the safe keeping 81

COYssE ON DEMOCRACY.

The democrats are beginning to feel un-
easy in certain quarters at the prospects of
an Eastern man being nominated for presi-
dent at their ticket in 1892 Hugh Coyle, a
bright newspaper man and straight
goods" democrat, has been all over the
Western country combining business with
politics. He was the advance representa-
tive Of Forepaugh's great show and met all
sorts Of people. He was in Olympia last
September for a day or two. He says the
democrats must nominate Western man
if they want to succeed. Coyle knows
what he is talking about. He is an ency-
clopedia of ofinformation and is one of the
best posted meni in the country. He is un.
der so years of age and has had some won
derful experiences outside Of publishing
and editing a democratic newspaper in
Washington city twenty years ago. Coyle
was drummer boy in the navy before the
war and during the war organized all the
drum corps in Hancock's army corps. He
has been all over the Holy Land, was in the
harbor Of Naples in 1859 when King Bomba
died and again when the second crater of
Vesuyius was formed. He was there the
night Garibaldi entered the city. 'Three
days before that night, SAID Coyle, 1--WE
let go the starboard anchor of the old frig-
ate Macedonian in the harbor. We were
lying there on the Fourth of July along
with a Russian frigate and an entire Eng
lish fleet, composed of twenty line of-battle
ships. The former manned the yards and
dressed the ship gayly in honor Of our ma
tional birthday, but the Englishmen did
not show much outward qualification.
They just ran an American flag up at the
fore. Somehow or other the Russian and
American sailor always fratern1zed, and
we were generally in a row with English
men when ashore. remember that we
were lying in Naples when the news of the
Heenan and sayers prize fight in England
arrived, and the result occasioned bad
blood and some collisions. Everybody,
from captain down to powder boy was
betting on Heenan.'

something about the cost Of running a

Tt is reported that Governor Ferry has

reached that point where one of two things
had to be done: Either the governor had
to do without his newspaper luxury, or the

The standard number in nearly all
cities Is four men to a company, and
when il is considered that one man must
box after the team and do the driving,
his services st fires being required only
in cases OF emergency, THE ARGUS thinks
the Rock Island council had better start
out right and put in the additional man
four IN all to company.
