Little Delay as Possible.
The Rock Island party which went
to Galesburg yesterday to appear be-
fore Judge Smith in the mat.
ter OF the controversy over
the Twenty-third street paving
material, returned home last evening
Those composing it were: Mayor
Medill' City Clerk Huesing, City At
torney Haas, Aids. Kuschmaun and
Dauber, and A. W. Vanderyeer and
George Baker, the latter two repre-
senting the Edwards e. Walsh Con

William Nevins, the latter on behalf

The Courts Stand.
The committee appeared before
Judge Smith on its arrival, and he
asked the city attorney if he had
seen the bill of the petitioners for
the writ of injunction, and that Off
clal replying that he had not. the
court reauired'that it be submitted
TO him, and he then instructed the
committee to appear again at noon.
Meanwhile Mayor Medill and CITY
Attorney Haas perused the bill.
They found it a voluminous docu-
ment which had not been completed
until yesterday morning. 1t set up
that the paving ordinance was de-
iective; that all the proceedings were
defective and irregular; that there
was collision between the council
and the Edwards & Walsh Construc-
ton company. whereby that firm re-
ceived the contract, and that the
Galesburg Terra Gotta brick were
superior in quality to the Rock ISL
and brick
The court granted the committee
an audience after the noon recess,
when after looking into the case, he
dcclinedito interfere in the contro-
versy, holding that it seemed like a
disposition to seek the dictation OF
the court to the Rock Island council
as to what brand OF brick should be
used in paving contracts. That he
did not propose to do. 1t was an
extremely delicate question for him
to decide furthermore, as he was in.
terested in the two brick plants a,
Galesburg. and he could see no rea
son why the matter should not orig.
inally have been taken before Judge
Peasants in Rock Island. or Judg,
Glenn, and so saving he dismissed
the petitioners.
Nature of the Petition.
The nature of the petition viii oc.
casion some surprise in one respect
as it was generally supposed the pc
sition of the property holders wa.
only aimed at the character of the
brick, and this is probably the case
but the attack on the city ordinance
to say nothing of the reflections OF
the moral attitude of the council
would seem to indicate q purpose tC
obstruct paving operations entirely
which THE ARGUS has been informe &c
by the property holders most di
rectly interested in the application
is not their desire by any means.
Whether the matter will b,
brought up before Judge Glenn re

Just how the fire started is
unknown, but the depot and sheds
are burned to the extent of about
$4,000 damage, partly covered by in
surance. The depot is one of the
first ever built along the Peoria road,
and with its destruction goes many

that the fire started from sparks

gagged in switching.

were laid off. Thirty-five of these
were brakemen and the rest
were firemen. The men have been
laid off indefinitely, and most of them
reside in Galesburg. By this, seven
crews are taken off the main line and
part on the division between Gales
burg and Ottumwa, and seven off the
Ottumwa branch and onto the Quin-
cy branch or pool. This action
means the bursting of the seven
crews of the Quincy pool.

IN A NUTSHELL.

Thoughtless people who decry the &C.
suing $50,00O,O00 in bonds to guard
against absolute disaster should reflect
for a moment as to the cause of such &C.
ton by the secretary. The bond issue is
unfortunate, of course, and no one re-
Allies more than the powers that be how
unpopular it must be with the masses,
but the men now in control are not of
the cheap John species who falter when
there is duty to be performed. Who
placed upon the statute books the laws
that brought on this panic and throttled
the commerce of the nation? The st !,
Louis Republic tersely tells the story
thus:
"Republican tariff legislation injured
trade and reduced revenues. Republican
extravaganza wiped out the surplus and
substituted deficit. Republican bullion
buying made the mass of idle bullion
menace to the silver market and to the
stability of the currency. Hence the
panic.
Secretary Carlisle tells the senate COM
mittee on finance what the Republican
panic has done for the treasury. Expen-
ditures 60 on under Republican laws, and
revenues fall off as a consequence of
other Republican laws.
creed and Mckinley tried to make
tariff reform an impossibi,ity. They did
not succeed, but they have made mess
Of the fiscal affairs of the government"
And yet the Albuquerque Democrat has
the temerity to term this "cuckoo" jour
nalism. Upon what meat doth this, our
caesar feed?. The Democrat should dig
up its Democratic primer and study
straight Democracy for awhile.
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1894-01-22
IMPOSED UPON.

The Albuquerque Citizen will again
sand corrected. It asserts editorially
that all the witnesses presented on be-
half of the prosecution in the Chavez as
sassination case are convicts from the
penitentiary. This is about as near the
truth as the Citizen appears to be able
to get. Out of the twenty or more wit
nesses examined one had served q term
in the penltentiary for crime which it
is yer, doubtful if he ever committed, and
ane other was convicted of violation of
the Eumunds act. But the Citizen is in
I. measure excusable for such assertions.
Ii is notorious fact that the editorials
appearing in that journal of late, which
30 grossly misrepresent affairs in Santa
= Fe county, are not written by the editor
OF the Citizen. They are written at San
Ia Fe by parties whose only motive it
would seem is to shield crime and who
appear to have personal interest in
thwarting the ends Of justice In this par
ticular case. That such things can be
written and calmly accepted and pub
lished as facts In the editorial columns of
a paper that claims to be "willing to
stand shoulder to shoulder with the New
MEXICAN in favor of law and ORDER" is
one of the saddest commentaries on good
journalism that has ever come under our
observation in more than decade of ex-
perience in New Mexico newspaper
work. Editor Hughes is being shame
fully imposed upon by some one at San
