A A A The OrOer of Council Disregarded, ami Tho City Sinking Deeper into Debt! A HALT SHOULD BE DEMANDED. THE condition of the city Trensuiy is such, that we deem it our duty as a public journalist to uall attention to some facts which we respectfully urge upon the city council to investigate, in oHcr that a remedy may be applied. And first we may say that the oily government is now being conducted on borrowed money at the rate of cent, interest, payable in advance, The last half of the June tax has been swallowed up, und since these have been exhausted, $6000 has been borrowed as a temporary loan, and the interest lias-been withheld by the party loaning the funds. Of this 8GOOO, all luis been paid out except the small sum of $150, and there are nre bills allowed in the clerk's office amounting to $400 or $500. At the next meeting of council full SGOO of monthly salaries will fall due, and other bills will no doubt swell thi.

amount to full S2500. Between this time und the of January bonds to tho amount of $10,889.20 will fall due, some of which are past due, nnd have been deferred ami interest paid in advance i the tirafc of January.

A PROJECT is on foot on the part of our merchants in this city to build a steamboat to make i tups from t.hi.s port to Pomeroy. Wu heartily commend the enterprise to our commercial en as being one i i prove beiu- ficial to the city, and to the cities and tou ns above us. Much of the Li ade which finds its way to Cincinnati, can be diverted and become tributary to the cordon of towns and cities between here and Pome- ill opon channels of trade, and not the rule. The publication of ordinances In the city papers a few weeks ago cost four times what it should htwe done, and it aeems that one man has been allowed to waste, the public funds without limit, The street graveling system has been oue of the most extravagant and highhanded acts ever consummated by member of the common council of the city of Portsmouth, The circumstances are these. On the 1st of May Mr.

Varner asked council that ho be al- owed to contract for yards of screened gravel to be piled up and used when necessary upon streets, This was granted, but at the next regular meet- ug, May 15th, on motion or' Mr. Gist, the mutter was reconsidered, as he it was inexpedient to expend' so much on the streets, and on the 19th of June the council, by unanimous vote, united the amount of gravel to be contracted for to 1000 yards. By reference to Council Journal Vol. page 172, tho following will be seen: 'Mr. Varner read the bids for gravel, the lowest being Win.

Stokely and Bard, each at 90 cents per yard, and fteied the following resolution Resolved, by the City Council of the Jity of Portsmouth, That the Cotumit- ou Streets be and are hereby required contract with the lowest responsible Bidder for such an amount of screened dating his customers in every way in his power.

And to say that the right here we de- closcet watchout should be instituted by property holders.

The police force are doing their duty, but they are not ubiquitious. They can not be everywhere. Other cities have been burglarized and Portsmouth cannot hope to escape. It is the duty of all good to strengthen the hands of tho municipal authorities instead of howling und complaining because the cowardly and scoundrelly grabber and his miserable hireling is slandering the police. The city under its present municipal authority is the most quiet and peaceable city in Ohio.

IN answer to interrogatories made to me daily by men of both parties in relation to office of County Commissioner, I wish to state why I became a candidate in the manner I did.

I was solicited by a number of good men of both parties to be a candidate. My reply was that I would have to take time to consider the matter; but if I did consent, I would never agree to be a partisan candidate for that office, as it was the people's money that had to be spent. I would go into the office as a people's candidate, or not at all, as it was getting to be too ex-pensive to elect partisan County Commissioners, and that I would be expected to use the office for the benefit of the party that elected me, and in that case the people were bound to suffer. I believe that a very large portion of the tax-payers think as I do in relation to tbis office, and it is to them xhat I look for support, If I am considered capable of filling the office, with justice to them and credit to myself, as I would want the office under no other circumstances, I should be glad to have their support.
