The Finance Board met last night.
The official bond of Alonzo Calhoun,

and approved. All the monthly pay
rolls were c~oncurred in and warrants
ordered drawn. Mr.. James Brann and
a dozen other members of the Third
District Citizens Improvement Associa-
ton were present. Mr.. Brann announced
that he represented the property owners
and churches of Second street. The
sewers he declared in First, Second,
Third and Fourth streets were so choked
up with filth that sewage could not es-
cape. The result was that 1t backed up
into cellars and Easements, drove ten
ants out of houses and rendered living
in the district dangerous.
The first and Third street sewers are
only lateral outlets, while in Second and
Fourth streets they are main sewers.
The who'll difficulty, as explained by
Mr.. Brann is that the four sewers in ques-
ton are supposed to empty into he
Second street sewer at Henderson street.

Just how dear to Mr. C~leveland's heart
the people of the United States are VIII
be shown in a few months when new
tariff laws, devised in the interest OF the
people of this country, are presented 10
him for approval. To be sure. MT. Cieve-
laws, but whether or not he will have
the courage to do it is a matter OF
speculation.-State Gazette.
If the Republican Congress purposes
passing a new Mckinley law, 1t will
no doubt rave the experience of having
1t vetoed by President Cleveland. The
Democratic party is not only willing
but eager to go into the Presidential cam
paign with such an issue thus galvanized
into life.
The Democratic tariff is now displaying
its true effects. Every mill and fac
tory in the country is flooded with bust
ness. Every one is earning profits for
the capital invested and almost every
one has increased the wages of its en-
ployes.
In addition to this, the shipping bust
ness and all branches depending on the
importation of foreign goods are once
again 1ourishing. The country is broadly
and universally prosperous, and only the
movement of the crops is awaited to
bring about a season of teeming plenty.
In spite of the income tax iasco, the
Treasury is getting into good shape.
The gold reserve holds It's own and the
income from custom duties and other
sources is now affording an immediate
probability of exceeding the needs of the
public service.
This is the state of things. There is
every reason to believe that it will be
even more strongly defined in every
respect at the time when Congress meets
in December next. The Republican party
will be confronted, In the immortal words
Of the President. with "a condition not
a theory"
If, in the face of such a situation, the
Republican leaders think 1t wise to raise
again the STANDARD of high protection,
the Democracy will welcome the issue.
The logic of facts will be with us as
well as the distractions of economical
science. The jibes of Tom Reed will
be of small effect against ten per cent.
raises in wages. and a capitalist will
b. apt to place more confidence in his
dividend check than in a solemn plati-
Jude from Major Mckinley.
Let the battle begin. Thu Democracy
Is ready.
