Never Delivered the Goods.

Washington May 22.--The comptrol-
Ter OF the treasury has decided adverse
~ to the claimants in the case Of Dud-
ley & Kitchener against the government
for equitable compensation on account
of an alleged breach Of an alleged con-
tract for the purchase from them in
1898. OF 10000 Mauser rifles and three
million cartridges. The only evidence
OF contract in this case, says the
comptroller. Is found In a quoted letter
TO them from Gen Alger secretary Of
war. directing them 10 deliver the arms
and ammunition within five weeks from
that date. on August rs. the goods not
having been delivered the order was
countermanded. The comptroller holds
that in the war department a valid eX-
ecutory contract cannot be made by
correspondence. and even II that were
not the case. there is no evidence to
show that the claimants did any work
or incurred any expense In the way OF
procuring the rifles and cartridges, ana
hence they have no valid claim for
damages as contended.

CTTY POLITICS.


As the city campaign has lined up
until now it is the main topic Of local
interest. Various candidates are plead
ing working, urging, promising and in
sisting why they should receive your
support. 1t Is sometimes really anus
ing to see how they act and how good
they appear to the colOred man. Some
will arm him and will speak and shake
hands, who only a few weeks ago knew
him not. Some will ask how are you
getting along How are the folks Some
will say how is your man Blagburn
coming out and win perhaps on election
vote against him, then other candidates
will try and study In the by-gone past.
they have done In the by-gone past.
And then there are others SO anxious
to receive the colored vote, will promise
to give them places that they don't
mean, Of course they are not exactly
living. We can only say this ought not
to be done. Our politics ought to and
must be elevated and purified for It's
safe purpeturity and commentator
among the better class. For our num-
cipal politics are almost so low that
good, worthy citizens will not enter or
permit their names to be used for any
office. While If men would be honest,
sincere and pure, in politics as In
commercial or other business. there
would be no trouble about good gov
eminent and having good officers. Let
each candidate rest upon his merits ana
not use unfair methods or mlsrepre-
but be honest and fair ele-
waiting politics to the much needed
higher plane.
