( hnrgeH, and (plick time in Thead vaorem system cried for by some Will the Asheville Banks Accept the Trust 7 EditokThb Citizen: It seems to me very important that the banks inform the citizens authoritatively at once, be fore the election, whether or not they ac cept the trust of the sinking fund. It is due to the citizens to be informed wheth er or not the only financial security pro vided by the act is to be available. The banks were required by the act to accept or decline the trust written sixty days after the ratification of the act, although by the consent of the board of aldermen they may do so later. They have not done so yet and there are rumors that two out of the four will not accept the trust. The refusal of any two banks to accept renders it illegal for the other two banks t act as trustees. n that event the board of aldermen and ecil; treasurer constitute the sinking fund commission. The name of our pres- entcity treasurer, J. K. Knukin.isa tower ot strength, but the term ot olnce ol a city treasurer is only two years and Mr. Kankin s term expires with the present board. The amount of the bond of the city treasurer is determined by the board ot aldermen. As treasurer, in the man agement of the sinking fund, he would be absolved Irom his bond, except in case ot frnud on his part, by showing the or der of the sinking tund commission, com posed nt himselt and the members of the board. For a bond, binding the sinking fund commission, as thus constituted, there is no provision inside or outside the act utul the treasurer is an appointee of the board. If al! the banks or any three of them will accent the trust with a joint and several liability as previded and which follows the (icccptance, the security to the poople will be ample. The liability of any one ot the banks on account of the others can by means ot collaterals to be pledged by each as occasions demand be made verv small, ims arrangement has, 1 understand, been provisionally bv the banks. If the profits to the banks Irom the trust is hardly worth their acceptance, still their public spirit would undoubted ly be rewarded by the indirect Dentins ot ncreased Uusincgs.

It was said that the colored people held the balance ol power heie. Therefore he thought the framcrs of tin bill should have consulted the colored men before the bill was passed. The while people were responsible lor the mistakes made bv the colored men. MEAL IN THE POTTAGE,. Rev. R. P. Rumlcy talked for ten min utes on the subject. He wanted the city to improve. He said the bill itself, like the pottage mentioned iu the Scripture was bitter, but meal had been sprinkled over it by the candidates for the offices until it was sweet to the taste, lie wanted to see the improvements, and was expecting to build his new church with some ot the money which the pas sage ot the bill would bring here. 1 he A VERY QUIET MAY DAY.

The matter ot selling out delinquents was explained by C. H.

Then someone cnea, jmiow us aai pa ;Ih Lecture at the ira..d l.aal Jttlltllt. Sam Jones "gol time" at the Grand last night. The Ray Iiios., anil U. L. Brown did not. The audience was not equal to that frequently pres. nt al. third rate theatri cal entertainments. Mr. ones is beyond all queslion a genius as a talker. .No man is better known in the south than Samjoncs. By reputation all know him. There was H' rhaps not one erson disappointed Inst night. The exact reason of ins .ower as n sieaker might be difficult to assign. Perhaps he has got the "get there" him self. Nine persons out of ten his lecture last night would strike nt the right place in the right way, in some portion of it. The tenth man would be honestly bored with the talk, and he staid at home. His lecture throughout was fresh, bright, thoroughly practical. His illus trations are original and paint the point to be shown distinctly. lie does not at tempt what the books call oratory, but a more quietly beautiful piece of word painting would be difficult to find than Ins icroration. Mr. Jones thorough-going common sense was shown by the advice he gave Asheville with regard to improvement, "W'liat my veins and arteries are to mv body," said the the speaker, "good streets and sidewalks are to a city. Without them, it is dead." Mr. Jones referred to the growth and prosperity of Atlanta, and attributed it to I lie fact that Atlanta had better streets than any city in the south. If Asheville had "get there" in proportion to her pos sibilities, said Mr. Jones, it would be a city of fifty thousand inhabitants in a few vears. At Marseille.., the Socialists had a Demonstration, ;bnt It was Dis persed by Cavalry Verv Calm In Other Towns. Paris, May 1. It is now raining here. All was quiet until about noon, when there was a scene of great excitement in the vicinity of the Rue Berry. The cause of the tumult was a loud ex plosion, which broke the windows all around the locality mentioned. The streets, happily were deserted at the time of the explosion, consequently nobody was injured. No one seems able to ex plain the motive for the explosion, which is said to have been caused by a bomb. The police yesterday evening arrested about SbO anarchists and other persons coming under the category of "danger ous characters." Marseilles, Mny 1. 1 p. m, A so cialist demonstration took place here this morning. It was of a disorderly character and those taking part refused to disperse when ordered to do so by the local authorities. , The services of the military were called lor and failing to persuade them to disperse the cavalry men were ordered to charge the mob. They rode at the crowd at a slow trot and quickly scattered the socialists, ar resting several. Among those captured was M. Antide Boyer, socialist member of the chamlier of deputies, who repre sents Bouchcs du Rhone, or the fifth electoral district of Marseilles. Komi;, May 1, 2 p. m, There has been no disorder here to-day up to this hour. King Humbert, this morning, drove through the quarters inhabited by work ing men and women, and was greatly satisfied with the result of his drive, lie received a great ovation. London, May 1 .Reports from Lyons, tiencva, Vienna, Berlin, Brussels, Lisbon and Oporto, show that perfect order pre vails at these places. Not Helleved. Jt KiiNSTiHVN, May 1. I'p to this hour, 11 a. m., no news has been received here of any steamship lieing nshore at Kinsale and the report published in Lon don this morning that a trans-Atlantic line vessel had stranded there lust night is not believed here. As Kinsale is only thirty miles from this port, it is hardly probable that a steamer could go ashore there and no intelligence of the accident reach here.
