Keid said that at the h'.st election the Democratic part- was brought into power b- a curious combination of cir eumstaiKCS, the result of a, hundred causes, not with candid deliberation, but is a result in a laree mcasuic, ol the apathy of the American people.

At the present moment, continued Uecd, no man can kn.vw what will be the result of the act ion of this Congress upon the manufacturers ol this country.

Nevertheless he believed the Sherman net and tlie ac cumulation ol silver was the earlie tin- thealion ol the disaster wlucli vc are approaching and thai it h;;s p!acil a pat t, not entirely unloi tunntc, i:i warn ng us that we can be saved from still further misfortune and doubt, lie did not believe tlie Uemocraltc t. oiynss even il iiiliucnced bv pressure on the part of the people ol the United States wili s ) re the tariff that workingiuau will be brought hack even to a coiuli t ion of work men under the Walker tax id", but that there will be doubts and difficulties and reductions he had not the slightest doubt. .

It has been made the foundation of dis trust by a variety causes. If, then fore, repeal will relieve the batiks and give them confidence; if it will send back deposiloi s to the counters; il it will ease t he rates of moiicv, we shall be able to get over this disaster with less harm, Uss misfortune. Keed was m favor of repeal lor another reason; lie was not o:i v c-csirous ol thering the storm with as few sails blown to pieces as possible, but he was looking for an upward movement which is sure to come and which ca:i onlv be postponed by bad management and bad jettons.

Sickness and absence of members caused a lack of a quorum 3'csterday when the time came for holding the reg ular meetings of the Joint Board and the Hoard of Aldermen. However, Mayor Patton, Aldermen Cosby and Wcstall ar.d Advisors Sawyer, Gw3'n and Mil lard were present and business was talked over informally. W. T. I'enuiman, representing the property owners on South Main street, consulted the members with a view to learning their opinion of the friendly suit proposed to be ln ought against the city by South Main street property owners. One point made b- Mr. I'enuiman was that he objected to paying benefits assessed against him b3' reason of the widening of the street and then having to pay, in addition to this, his pro rata share of the damages awarded to owners on another portion of the street. The members present ex pressed themselves as favoring the suit proposed, as it seems that suits will be instituted in any event, and it is pref erable to have the question decided if possible before January, when the lirst assessment becomes due. Officially, however, the Hoard could take no action. Dr. John I Icy Williams, the newly elected member of the school committee, was sworn in. Mayor Patton then brought up the question of a committee man to take the place left vacant by the dec lination of A. Kankin. The Mayor, falling in with the idea of The Citizen, said he hoped the Board could get some gootl, practical woman to take the place. lie had taken the libertj- ot asking Mrs. 1 .
