THE CHICAGO MAYORALTY.

Law Discovered that Fits the Case-A
Temporary Mayor to be Appointed and
Special Election Ordered to Fill the
Vacancy.
CHICAGO, Oct. 31.-For nearly ten
hours yesterday Corporation Counsel
Kraus and his assistant attorneys, Pal
mer and Deifler, searched the statutes
of the state for some law. clause or
section that would have some bear
ing on the present emergency. They
were on the point, at a late hour
last night, of abandoning the effort
when, by the merest accident, they
resurrected section of the old city
charter that provides for just such an
emergency as has now arisen. The
new city charter, adopted in 1872, un-
der which the city government is now
being run, provides that such sections
or provisions of the old charter. as are
not inconsistent or in conflict with the
new city charter shall be considered
operative The corporation counsel
feels certain that the courts will take
such a view of this case.
This section of the old city charter
provides for the election of a tempo
rary mavor. who shall be vested with
the full powers of the regular mayor,
by the city council, and who shall
serve until new mayor is regularly
lected. 1t provides further that the
city council shall call a special election
for the selection of mayor within
ten days after vacancy has oc-
curred. The evident intention of the
law is that suck an election shall
be called to be held within a reasona-
BILE time, the intention being to I'LL
the vacancy without delay. Under
the provisions of the new election law
a special election may be held with
twenty days notice, the only provi-
sion being that the names OF the candl-
dates must be certified to the board OF
commissioners fifteen days prior to
the election.
Assistant Corporation Counsel Pal
ner agrees that the city council must
call a special election for mayor not
later than next Monday; that such an
election must be held within a reason
able time. not later than twenty days,
and that in the interim the council
NAV choose one of it's number to act as
mavor, such member so chosen oelng
vested with all the powers OF the OF

justing duties on imported articles, to
enable the home manufacturer to com
pete more successfully, and so to shut
out a larger share of foreign imports,
the intention there is to prevent reve-
nue. and not to raise revenue. The cam
did mind can find only fiat hostility TO
the solemn declaration and the pledges
of the platform, in any attempt TO fix
duties so that home industries may
live, because by doing so the imports
of competing foreign products must be
diminished, and the raising of revenue
correspondingly prevented.
What the democrats ought to do is to
admit that their declaration and pledge
were such as ought not to be carried
into effect, and particularly that would
be madness to do so with industries pros
trated as they are now. But no such
honest franllness is to be expected from
the party which declared all protection
unconstitutional. Nevertheless it is in
order for workingmen everywhere
earnestly to petition congress not to
make any change of duties which will
close American works, or subject Amer
lean labor to greater foreign competi-

AN EXPENSIVE CHANGE.

Eject the Industrial Situation OF
EIecting a Democratic President.
The industrial census taken by the
American Economist gives some idea
of the paralysis resulting from the dem
ocratic threat of free trade and the
financial stringency resulting from the
free silver agitation. The industrial
situation is summed up in this: Thers
was a decrease of 81 per cent in ths
number of persons employed, compar-
ing the week ended September 2, Of
this year, with that ended November
< of last year while the wages paid by
the SAM establishments were 6915 per
cent less, compasins the same weeks
AS to commerce, the amount " trade
throughout the country during the lat-
ter of the two weeks compared was
only half that of the former.
The country has already paid dear
for the change" voted by the people
must be noted, is of the week previous
to the presidential election last Novem-
Der with the opening week Of Septem-
Der of this year. Consider that the
shrinkage shown refers to only
one week; figure how long this de-
pressed condition has lasted and how
long it may be expected to last, and ex-
tend the estimate to ali the industries
of the country, as well as its trade, and
the total will run far into the hundreds
of millions. Then consider the addi-
tional fact of the shrinkage in the
value of stocks and other securities and
of other properties affected by the de-
preston, and figure up the sum total
1t is estimated by experts that the
shrinkage in stock values alone has
been fully $500, 600, 900. 1t is reason
ablv certain that the election Of dem
ocratic president and congress has cost
the country as much as the entire war
of the rebellion.
Democratic administrations come
very high. Do they pay?--Toledo

THE FINANCIAL END.

The Part of the Fair that Most Interests
Those Having the Bills to Pay-The
Total Paid ADMISSIONS Nearly Twenty
One and Half Miilions-Three and "A
Half Millions OF Dollars Received from
Concessionaires-T VIII Likely Be a
Small Dividend To Original Stockholders.
CHICAGO, Oct. 31.-With the grand
total Of 21,477,212, paid admissions the
Worlds fair was officially closed to-
night Though these figures repre-
sent the paid admissions during the
time allotted by congress in which
the exposition should be kept
open, yet it is calculated that
at least 1000, 900 tickets will be
purchased before the beautiful White
city is dismantled and leveled to the
ground. When the fair closed Sunday
night, the total paid admissions up to
that time were 21,269, ,039. When the
receipts were counted to-day it was
found that the total was 21,477, ,212.
The total number of admissions on
passes was 2,052, 1873, making grand
total of %, 529, 400.
After every debt Of the Worlds fair
has been paid there will remain at
least 81 900, 900, and perhaps much more,
to be distributed among the stockhold-
ers Treasurer Seeberger made this
pleasant announcement yesterday af-
ternoon.
Since its organization the Exposition
company has paid out $50, ,55S, ,S45.01, or
three tunes the amount the managers
expected to spend when they com
menced building the fair. The gate
receipts during the exposition period
proper were little oversize. 900, 600. To
to-day IS, 100000 had been collected
from concessionaires by Mr.. Brick
mars department and nearly 5000, 900
were paid before he took hold.
The returns from concessions was
one of the big surprises of the fair.
Nobody was reckless enough to pre-
dict that that sum would be realized.
The Paris exposition got but sS00,000
from that source, while the Centen-
nial people, being better managers
than the Frenchmen, got 81, 100000.

unsafe to predict that as goes Ohio in

an epoch-making campaign that is be-
ing waged in Ohio. An old-fasbioned
republican majority Of from $4,000 to
40, 600 in Ohio means the tina settle

without change. The matter was
written by a democrat for demc-
cratic paper, and was given to the
