TOWN MEETING.


Before our mkt issue. Town meeting
will be Il thing of the past. The names
OF the several candidates have been 40
jnggled, with view OF gaining some adj
vantage, tibet it is difficult to make any
thing liks Il correct prediction oi the Re-
suit.
As heretofore stated the News has no
pet candidates and does not advocate
the cause Of any particular candidate
or set-of candidates for the reason we
beIisve,nny one OF, the tickets that will
be placed before the electors tomorrow
contain the names Of the gentlemen
capable and worthy.
While we are in accord with the views
and principles OF the friends OF some of
the candidates. we have not nught to
say against the particular candidates
ON account of the selfish motives and
shortcomings of their friends. How
ever, we cannot refrain from expressing
our belief that some of The candidates
will unjustly suffer on account OF their
over jealous friends who are acting from
purely selfish motives.
The News pledges it's support TO the
officers selected by the people in 40 lar
as their efforts are exested for the best
interests of the town.

CONCERNING PARTY WALLS.
Decision of Importance to Propert,
Owners in Suburbs

Owners in Suburbs.
Judge Cole, In Circuit Court No. 1 of the
supreme Court of the District of Columbia
rendered decision this morning of much
interest and Importance to property own
ers In Georgetown, Columbia Heights and
Mount Pleasant, and, in fact, to all land
holders within the District, but without
the original city. limits
Mr.. G. L. Wilkinson recently brought
suit against Messrs. Barr and Sanner to
compel them to pay him one-half the cost
ara street, they having used such wall in
building on the adjoining lot. The defend
ants refused to pay Mr.. Wilkinson, alleging
that the building regulations did not apply
70 party walls outside the original city lin
Its, and that they. therefore, had the right
70 use his wall without contributing their
snare OF Its cost. The case was argued
last Sa aturday by Messrs. VIM. F. Mattingly
& Son for the defendants, and for the
plaintiff by Mr.. E. Hilton jackson and the
plaintiff himself.
Judge Cole, held in his decision that the
stated that they were for the District of
Columbia, and that the only question was
whether the District Commissioners had
the authority to regulate party walls with
in the District. The regulation of party
walls by statutes had been the rule from
almost time tmmemorial, the judge said,
ana II the regulation of party walls was
properly building regulation, then Con-
gress had authorized the Commissioners to
make such regulation where, by Its act of
June Ii, 1878, 1t had direeted them to make
building regulations for the District of Co
lumbia.
The Judge held that the regulation of
party walls was within the authority of the
act of Congress, and, being a reasonable
regulation. was therefore valid.

RAILROADS IN CHINA.
n hihsionnry's Account OF the DIm-
cultieS Under Which They
Are Conducted.

a missionary writing from China to
friend in this city recently described
the difficulties under which the newly
completed railroads are conducted in
That country, says the New York Sun.
Passengers in the first-class coaches,
he said, exhibited SO strong Ii desire
10 carry off various articles from the
cars as souvenirs of their trip that the
coaches were speedily stripped OF those
things that contribute 10 the comfort
OF the passenger. They took away with
them hat and bundle racks, mirrors,
lamp brackets, hooks, small tables, and
even doors. They were considerate
enough to leave the car frame and
wheels. And the purloiners were gov
ernment officials and people belonging
TO the wealthy classes.
The stations along the railroad over
which the writer Travelled were rude
sheds, very unclcan and without O
chair or bench. The cars, too, were
very dirty. While this was especially
true of the second-class coaches, which
were oftentimes crowded with half
naked, unwashed people, the first-class
coaches also became very unclcan in
short time. Ii sooiI became necessary
10 take out all the upholstery and re-
place il by plain seats.
When the railroads were being built
reports were spread that the foreign
contractors were stealing Chinese chill
Gren and burying them in the roadbed
SO as to propitinte the god who rules
over railroads. These reports greatly
excited the people, and in one instance
q mob attacked two missionaries near
Peking and would have killed them had
not detachment of soldiers rescued
them. Under guise of these reports
children were really kidnapped md taken
into the cities for immoral purposes.

HIS EXILE AT AN END
After Many Years Executive CIemen-
cJ Is Exercised In "a Singular
Cnse I'm South Carolina.

Gov. Ellerbe has pnrdoncd l.. T. Cor
bett, member of one of the best fam
lilies in South Carolina. and now n citi.
zen OF San Francisco, Cal. In the spring
OF 1856 young Corbett. then n lad of IS,
was experimenting u store on his ia
Tiers plantation in Sumter county. 1t
was charged that the boy sold liquor to
the negroes, and, having no license,
prosecution followed. The boy fled the
country, without giving any intimntion
OF his intentions. Immediately after
ward he was tried, convicted and in his
absence n sealed sentence was left by
Judge kcrshaw, who has since died. II
has never been opened.
1T now transpircs that young Corbctt
went TO Colorado. where he worked
hard and met with success. Then he
went to California and prosperity fol-
lowed him. lie then married and is now
highly respected citizen in his new
home, and deacon in the Presbyterinn
church.
Some time ago he heard Of his con-
vIction and then OF the failing health
of his father and mother. lie wished to
return to see his parents alive. but the
sentence stood In his path. When the
people about his home heard OF the cir
cumstanccs they prepared strong peti-
tion. Gov. Ellcrhc granted n pardon
within nn hour after the recent of the
petition. The scli-bnniShed young man
was tclcgr"rhed to bps'en across the
