WHAT SWEENEY SAID.

While the Twelfth ward lies on eX-
tremely high ground and it's refuse and
sewage has for years polluted the
wards of less altitude. Its residents
oppose paying for sewers which will
only extend to the edge of the ward but
for which the ward will have to bear a
propOrtionate expense. That was Mr..
Sweeneys argument against the pass
age of the measure He and Mr.. Wirth,
of the Nineteenth and Mr.. Norton, of
the Twentyfrst, cast the only negative
votes.
For six or seven years the property
owners of the lower wards have been
clamoring for sewers to rid them of the
filth from the Twelfth above and from
their own localities, but favorable ac-
ton has never been taken owing to the
opposition of the Twelfth constituency.
The board of health is largely RESPONSE
BILE for the present action.
There We're no reports from commit
tees, other than the usual prosaic doc
ument from the auditing committee.
An important communication that in
wolves possibly a great expense to
property owners on Spruce street, be-
tween Wyoming and Penn avenues, and

TOPICS OF THE HOUR.

The arrest of N. Monwar, we'll
known as the faithful law clerk OF
Hon. Paul Neumann, appears to us
to have been either a case of gross
carelessness, or miscellaneous piece
of malice on the part of some one
endeavoring to injure his good repu-
tation in the community After the
remarks of Judge de la Vergne, in
dismissing the charge against him,
that there was absolutely no evil
dence against him, one begins to
wonder "where we are at" in this
funny little republic of the Coopers,
Doles and Hydes. Are we to be sub
jected to the same style Of police
tyranny as are the residents of Rus
STA, France and Germany. The
INDEPENDENT has called attention to
several similar cases, and, in fact, to
others of greater Importance. We can
only imagine that our Machiavellian
rulers desire to so Cypress the peo-
pie that they will prefer annexation
to the present Government.
