Judge George Hillyer was elec

The city govt)cm mt,for a nun:

they were ac'ive ward wo kers and
politicians, and occasionally men
got into places of power who art
charged with using ihat piae« for
personal beneti/s.
This state of affairs has not ten
ded to elevate the city Govern

class of citizens determined this
fall to take a hand in the control
of their own affairs, and p'aced in
nomination Judge Hillyer for May

such a ticket eop'd defeat the old
schemers with money, aad
well for the city-
THE liEUISEATUKE
We have looked over the pro.
ceedings of the Legislature for
the last week, hoping to find some
filing of interest to the general
readers, bul outßide of the local
cptiou bill which passed the Sen
ate. we find nothing of general in
terest. This body has now been
in session over one month and the
history of Legislation iu this state
will hardly find a parallel c.f as lit
tie done in the same length of
time. The first two weeks of .he
session was devoted to the elec
tions. This cannot be avoided,
but since that time, there seems
to have been a preconcerted effort
to kill time. One little contested
election case from the county of
Burke has occupied as much ‘ime
as the most important bill intro
duced.
The programme laid down is to
kill as much time as possible in
ordei to force a summer session-
Ttns will be done, and we may ex
pect to find at least a three months
session next summer. Tbe prece
dent set by the first legislation
will be followed until a change is
made in the method of paying the
Legislature. If instead of a per
diem, the members were paid a
salary of S2OO or $250, with the
privilege of remaining there as
ioDg as they desired, at their own
expense, the bus ness would be
pressed thiough, and forty or fifty
days at Ibe most would enable
<hem to dispose of the business.
Untill Ibis is done there is no
Hope of reducing the session to
less than eighty or ninety d^iys.—
I’ would be be ter to return to
bi-annual sessions of forty days
each.'

Congress met last Mouday
Th's is the long session aud
will probably continue until next
summer. The Tariff question,
that attracted so much atten
tion at the last session, wifi proba
blynot be biought prominently
forward during this tension. Hu
ihe verdict of the people as em
pbasized by the last National elec
ion, is in favor of a reduc'ion of
'he tariff in accordance with tl e
Morrison bill, or k as expressed in
'he Chicago platform, that it
should be limited by the necessi
ties of the governaent economical

'he policy of the incoming admin .
istration there can be no question

of its National policy and ithas le
ceived the endorsement of the pec
pie at the ballot box.
Dr Burchard is getting to be
about as famous as Guiteau.—

AT THE POINT OF A DAGGER
MR ROONEY CALLED FROM HIS HOUSE
AND GIVEN- A TERRIBLE
BEATING
Yesterday moruiDg about half
past one o’elock, Mr Rooney, who
lives at 44 Harri street, was en
ticecl from his house into his yard
and given a terrible beating by a
negro scoundrel.
Mr Rooney Is well advanced in
years, and occupies a residence
a.one with his wife. Saturday
night they retired quite late, and
as a natural consequence, soon
fell into a heavy sleep. Abou.
half past one o’clock Mr Roouey
was awakened by a noise at his
froat gate, and as er listening in
tently for a few seconds became
convinced that some one was ly
ing on the pavemeu* suffering ter
ribly. Groan after groan indica
tive of intense pain was borne to
his ears, md awakening bis wife
Mv Rooney announced hir inten
tion of going out
TO SEE WHAT IT MEANT.
He and his wife left theifr bed,
and while he was putting on acme
cloth'mg she made a light. All
t iis time the groaning Jontiuued,
oecoming louder and more dis- 1
tressing each second. Fina"y, bv j
ing ready, Mr Rooney opened his I
door, and, looking out, said:
‘•What’s wrong f”
Receiving no response, he again
asked the same question, when a
terrible groan came up from the
gate.
“Is there any one out there! If
«n, let him speak." again said Mr
‘•Help, help,” came the f< eble re
spouse.
•‘All right, I’ll be there in a sjc
: oud.' said Mr Rooney, as he start
ed down the steps toward th«
front gale. As be opened the ga e
be discovered the form of a man
lying across the sidewalk, and
turning around bade Mrs Rooney
bold the light iu the door. Then
turning, he s‘oopeddown over the
prrslrate man. at the same time
asking,
“Are you much hurt?
“Yes, I fell and ” but the
sentence was never finished Just
as the man the last
word Mr Rooney was Dying his
hands on him to help him. This
brought Mr Rocney close to the
man, who
SUDDENLY THREW BOTH ARMS
about the old gentleman's neck
and quickly springing up liegan
striking at his benefactor. The
aitack was so quick aud violent
that Mr. Rooney, hardly realizing
what t ad happened, oould not de
fend hitnaelf. Finally he manag
ed to elude hiv assailant and be
ing unarmed beat a hasty retie it
into the house. Iu the affray the
uegro, for such the rascal was,
struck Mr. Rooney several severe
blows, bui none of them were of a
serious character. Mr. Rooney
felt greatly outraged at the as -
saull and after waititg a few min
utes started out for a policeman,
but while he was gone the second
chapter of the outrage took place.
Soon after Mr. Roojey left, the
negro, who had evidently been
watching him. walked up to the
front door of 'he house,
and turning the knob
created the iinpresiion wi h A/rs
Rooney that it was her husband,
and induced her to unlock the
door. As soon as the key timed
in the lock the nogro forcibly push
td the dour open and walked iu.
Believing that her life was iu
great dangei, Mrs Rooney du-id -
ed to die fighting, and made a
reach for a heavy stick which was
n*ar the fireplace, but the negro
anticipated her designs, and grab
bing her with one hand, drew from
his breeches pocket with tbe oth
er hand, a long kuife, which he
opened with his teeth. Then
looking Mrs. Rooney in the eye
the negro said:
“I ain't going to hurt you if you
do as I say, but if you don’t do as,
i say I’ll kill you, and if you yell
out I’ll kill you. 1 want your
money, that’s ah. Give it to me
and I’ll go away and not bother
you. If you don’t give it to me
quick I’ll kill you.”
HE GOT TllT MONEY.
The negroes eyes showed that
he meant just what he said, and
believing that he would execute
his threat, Mrs. Roorey told him
all ihe money they had was in a
purse under the head of the bed.
Fearing that she had no. told the
truth, the negro dragged, rather
than lead her to the bed,and rerch
ing under the pillow pulled out,
the pocketoooa. This he opened
and from it took a roll of money
amounting to thirty t wo dollars,
she money the negro p'aced in
his pocket and then closing np
his knife he released Mrs. Rooney
and went out the front door and
disappeared before Mr. Rooney’s
return. Yesterday morning Mr-
Rooney sought Capt Couch, to
whom he related the facts and to
whom Mia Rconey gave an accu -
rale description of the negro.—
Mr. Rooney is a hard working
man and has the respect of all
who know him. He can illy afford
to sustain the loss. Patrollman
Harris and Hilderbr.iu d are now
working the case.—Constitution.
By way of a sort of negative
p'atform for the administration es
President Cleveland permit ns to
saggest the following :
1. No Gift-Taking.
2. No Nepotism
3. iVo filar Routeism or Whisky
Ringiam.
4 No Belknapiog
5. No Juuketism at Public Ex
pense
6. No Kitchen Cabinet.
7. No Rypocracy iu the White
ffose.
8. No Flummery.
This would be in 'ho nature of
reform, and that is whai the new
administration stands pledged to
give the country. This platform
should not only be printed and
hung in the white house but in
the departments as well.—New

At the residence of Mr Bud
McNeal, who lives seven irihe
