WIIAT 0 DO ATOUT IT. Accompanying tho communication wnsa sched- ulo of tho fim{mrly proposoed to be turned over to tho clty by Mr. Gage. Ald, Richardson moved that the communica- tion bo not reccived, If was bigh time that the Council know somothing of the standing of Mr. Gngo. It was first nocopaary to first make a de- mand upon his bondsmon to mako tho moncy good, 80 that thore could bo no quibbling. He would like to know whethor thoe bondsmon pro- posad to back down or not. Beforo the Oouncil did anything it was necossary to know the status of those bondsmen, 8o that thero could bo no equivacation. Then lot Mr, Gage muko 8 sworn ?tatnmoul. of his property, and not pick out a fow tema. Ald. Camphboll was of the opinion that the Council should take no sotion in the promises, but it should first be considered by the Corpora- tion Counsal. ¢ Ald, Richinrdson moved that the Finauce Com- mitteo bo instructad to roport at tho noxt moat- ing of tho Council the city's standing with reforonco to Mr. Gago. Ald, MoGrath aid the Council had notbing to do with it. The Comptroller must procood in tho mattor, Ald. Richardson sald this was juat what ho wanted the Corporation Counsel to determine by hisoptvion. * Ald. McGrath hoped the mattex would nat bo roforred to the Finance Qummittee, Immediate action ehould be taken. Hoe hoped it would be Inid over and published, aud mads the special order of Monday ovoning. Ald. Dixon snid thot tho resolutions contem- plated giving tho Muyor, Comptrollor, snd Fi- nauco Committoo unlimited power to make tom- porary loans. ‘I'ho Mayor srid it was evidont that Ald, Dixon did not undorstand the resolutions. No such thing was contomplated, 3 Ald, Campboll moved that the resolutions bo adoptod, in order that the Comptrolier might be ot ouce empowored to procecd at-once to raise the monoy necessary to meot the debt maturing in Jaounry. Ald, Dixon withdrow tho motion to refer, Ald. Moore movod to waive eugroysment and pass the roeolutions, Ald. Cullorton moved to lsy ovor and publish, and make them tho special order for Moundsy ovoniug, Ald. Richardson insistod upon hia motion in- structing tho Finance Committeo to veport upon Mr. Gago's defeloation Monday night. Ald. Mooro gsid tho matter was now in tho hauds of tho Comptrollor, who had not agked for the nssistanco of {he Common Counail. Ald, Riohinrdeon said it was reported that Mr. Gago's bondsmon would not make good the de- fleieney, and that Mr, Gugo proposed to turn over o lot of green beech wood in paymeont of Lis doficiency, Ho wauted to know somothing about what was proposed to bo dono, "'ho Mayor suggested that the Comptrollor had given a full repoit of the condition of the ne- couuts, Ald, Richardson repliod that it was roported that the Financo Committee had held coufor- ences with Mr, Gago and lis bondsmen. Ald. SBchaftuor snid that the Finance Commit- teo bad done nothing of the kiud, Thoe matter wha iu tho hands of the Comptroller, and he, for one, did uot proposo to put his foot in it, Ald. Dixon said that, Ly the torms of the char- tor, Mr. Qage still bad thirty days to make good tho deficioncy.

To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune : Bm: BMany aud various projects are being discussed, and muoh {8 being urged, with intent to provide employment for the poor during the coming months of winter,—which s undoubt- edly proper and commondable ; but it strikes me that tho ardor of our zonl may dofest the object in view for want of s proper disorimination in theselection of tho Bubjects, Tho fall exodus of tho summor's floating influx of Inbor-population sliould leave but little more in the city than could find a far demand for thelr labor during the intorval, of winter, and I Lold it to be the duty of our citizens to employ, during that sendon, ouly men wlho aro pormae nont residents, aud have families depending for their support upon tho procoeds of the day's work. I boliove we violato our dutyas good citizons, and entail great suffering on the peorer clags, by retaiving in our employmont during wintor nou-resident unmarricd men, whon hun- drods with large familles to provide for aro seok- iu’r for work, ''ho principal sources of employment in this city aro gas-worke, wator-works, sewer-works, building, sud stevedoring, ‘Theso works can only bo carried on during the summeor-months, and an immonse foroe of itinorant labor is ugual- ly then put ou. Now, to provide for the winter we have packing-houses, It scems to mo that a vory luglu force could also bo ndvnnlnfiunusly worked in_cloansiug ouv our eowors. It fuan cstablished fact thut, in many localitles, thelr filthy and putroscont condition ronders them a dangerous and nlnrmlng nuisanco. No refloo- tion whatover is intondod on the partics Laving such work in chargo; but so vital a necesity should bo attended to, and whot better time could bo choson than the winter to do such work? One thing {8 cortain: many must be provided for the coming wintor; charitublo organ{zations will be sorely pmuundy and it s botter to pro- vido worlk for the poor, so that thoy can maiutain thomuelves, than to pay taxes to maintain thom in idlencss, And, as before observed, o large number could bo profiiably employed to the nn.{ by cleansing out the sewers in tho'winter; and would respoctfully suggost the matter to Mayor Colvin nu& tho Qommon Councll for consleine tion, | Cucaao, Dec, 16, 2878 THE COURTS. State and County Taxes for 1873, Important Bills Filed to Test the Va- lidity of the Assessment And the Legality of the Railroad-Aid Law of 1869, The Cases Taken at Once to tho Su- preme Court. Patent Suits Decided---Bank- ruptcy Items. Pursuit of an Tilegal Constable. A NEW PHASE OF THE TAXATION CONTEST. A now stop was taken yosterday in thostruggle against tho valuations mado by tho Biato Board of Equalization, The bill in the Republio Btato Lifo- Insuranco Company caso waachiofly directedtothe illogality of tho aots of tho Btato Doard, aoting without restraint and making rulos of theirown, which were alleged to be entiraly arbitrary, and from whosé decislon there could bo no appeal. Pour suits wore bogun yostorday in tho Circult Qourt, inwhich an entirely now ground of attack wag takon, Without giving serintim {ho allogations of each bill, wo give an abstract of tho charges made, After sotting out the as- sossmont of tho property, whether personal or roal estate, tho mode of operation of the Assos- sor, tho equnlization by the County Board, stops which are too familiar to nced furthor specifleation, tho bills sot out that the Stato Board raised tho equalization thus equalized, in tho caso of real estato 107 por cont, and in tho cago of porsonal proporty 68 por cent, and these valuations weroe cortified by the Auditor to tho County Clerk ss tho bpsis on which the txes wore to bo oxtendod and collacted. It is charged that tho sssessments by the Town Asscssor were tho only legal assossmonts 3 that they wore tho only valuations made by any porson or persons eleot~ od or authorized by law to make any basis on which to nesosa taxos for the yesr 1870, ror Btato, county, or park purposos. The assess- ment by tho Town Asseasor is still unimpeached ; its truth is not donlod ; it has boon eworn to as showing the fair cash valuo of tho taxable prop- orty; the ofcors who mado such valuation are unimponched ; no complaint has been made against thom for mulfensnnce; no sllogations brought of sny crimo, and no indictmont has boen found agaiust thom, Again, if the taxes aro collocted on this in- crensed bnale, part will bo paid to tho Btate, port to the county, and part to the town, and a multi- licity of suits must be Lrought to recover the Pl]egnl excess, Tho Collectors will not be liable for cxecuting tho warraut, bocause it will not l}‘))peur onits faco toho void for irrcgularity, Tho Stato taxes will bo wholly loet, because an actioni cannot bo brought ngainat it, Tho valuation made by tho Auditor is 2 7-10 mils_ on tha dollur for poneral np- propriatfons for Stato purposes, and ning-tonths of a mill tox for the school fund, or 27cents on each $I1U0 for Btato taxes, aud 9 conta for school tnx. Tho nggregate valuation of the &xropertv of the Btate by the enhanced val~ uation is $1,340,501,611. If 7i¢ conts on each £100 bo levied for school tax, it would produce $097,876.20, sufliciont for the Brato school fund. Ninotcen cents on ench 8100 would produce $2,- 627,698.04, moro than sufticient for the genoral expenses of the State, or a total tax of 2614 couts on each §100 valuation, wheress tho lovy sctunlly ordered to be mudo is 86 conts—an ox- cess of 934 cents onoach €100, Theamountwhich tho Auditor has attompted to lovy besides tho school tax, is §2,000,000 for spproprintions snd 1,500,000'for tlio paymont of othor demands on the Btate Troneury, and. in countios which owo railrond aid dobts, the Auditor is lovymg about $1,000,000 for the payment of snid debts, in addition to tho genoral tax levy of 28 cents, and the Auditor is thus lovying doublo tha sum leviad by faw, for tho purposo of paying do- monds on_tho Treasury in violotion of his power, and in definnce of the Constitution, Threo of tho suita are for an infunction, the fourth for o mandamus. Ilnmilton M. Walrath filed bi bill against P, AL, Cleary, the Colloctor of Houth Chicago, to prevent him attemptiog to collact taxes ou the enlarged valuation, alleging hio owns lands on Calumot avenue, William Bross filed his bill against Herman Liob to pre- veut bim from oxtending taxes onany other boais than that of the Town Asscssor's caleula- tion, and J. M. Adsit, whoso proporty was por- sonal, brought bis sult sgaivst both County Clerk and Collector, to provent the ono from oxtending the other from collecting taxes on the now valuation, Dayton B. Morgan filed a petition prayiag for o mandamus instead of an injunction sotting up the samo materiol allogations; and_alleging that whoress Lo Los made o demand on tho County Clork to extend the taxes on tho old voluatlon: and hoon refused, lie has no other remedy in tho premiscs whereby he can pay all his legal taxes, he is compelied to ask for o mandamus to compol the County Clork to ox- tend the taxes on tho valnation of tho Assessor. Tho cases _wero, whon flled, takew to Judge Farwell. A formal demurror was ontered and suatninod in the cose of Walrath and Brosv, and complainant electing fo stand by the demurrer, the cases were olsmissed for want of equity, From this order nu appeal was aeked and obtained ou filing a bond for $250 in each cnso. 'The case of Mor- gan was not urgued. In tho case of Adsit, which Pruucuted soma different features, o temporary ujunction was grauted. By this moans the caecs aro at once brought up bofors the Supreme Court, The facts being admitted by this demur- ror, the wholo caso can bo determingd st once, and a double hearing saved. Therois a determined rosolve to test in the quickest possible mannor tho legulity of the sots of tho State Board of Equalization, and, if possible, to have the mat- ter decia®d 80 na not to iuterfero with tho levy of the tax for the prosent yoer, THE CLINTON WIRE-CLOTIL PATENT UASE. A declsion was made yostorday by Judge Drummond, in tho case of the Clinton Wire- Cloth Company agaivat W, A.

THE LEADING NEWSPAPER N TR, NORTHVEST THE PAPER FOR THE FARMER, MECHANIC, MANUFACTURER, MERCHANT, DBANKER, PROFESSIONAL AN, AND THE FIRESIDE, PRCSPECTUS FOR 1874, Tho coming year promises to be the most oventfulin a political sensoe that we have seen since the close of tho war. Tho quostions which have engrogsed and divided the public mind during the past twonty years are rapidly passing away, and wo find growing up in different parts of the country & party called by vari- ous namoes---in California the Indo- pendent party, in Jown the Anti- Monopoly party, in ‘Wisconsin the Reform perty, in Illinois the Farmers’ Movement---having o com- mon purposo and inspiration, and oexhibiting a strength which proves that it answors one of tho chiof de- mands of tho hour. The CHICAGO TRIBUNE will give a large share of its attention to this NEW MAN- IFESTATION OF PUBLIC SENTI- MENT. It holds: 1st. That tho old party organize- tions aro essentizlly corrupt and fraudulent. Having no longer any principles to carry into eflect, thoy have bocome mere businoss entor- prises, meking o show of opposition to ench othor, but really sharing in. tho proceeds of profligate and dis- honest legislation. To supposo that any healthful roform can flow from the pretended efforts of theso worn- out and demoralized partnerships is altogether vain and illusory. 2d. That tho tariff’ system now in voguo is & cunning device to rob the many for the ber~"*of tho fow, and that its effect is w cvouso farm pro- duets to exchange for about one-hulf the quantity of foreign or * pro- toeted” goods they would othorwise buy. 3d. That railronds cannot exact moro than a fair rate of interest on the capital actually invested in them, and that when, in addition to this, they claim dividends on watered stock and {froudulent bonds, the State may rightfully interfore for the protection ot the people ; thatunjust diseriminations between different localitios are in violation of law and should be prohibited. 4th, That subsidies or bounties of money, land, or public credit, to railwey, steamship, or other corpo- rations, are flagrant abuses of the powers of government, fraught with tho gravest dangors to the people, and tending to promoto corruption, extravagance, spoculation, and financial disastor. The general character of THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE is too well ostablished to need recapitulation. It is always indepondent and foar- less in the expression of its views. In its news department it is second to no paper in the United States. The Wesltly Edition containg a care- {ully preparod summery of the news of the weck, brought down to the hour of going to pross. Literary, political, financial, so- cinl, and egricultural topics will constitute, as horetoforo, leading features of the Weokly Edition, and no pains will be spared to incroase its attractiveness in these dopart- meonts. Its markot reports are un- surpassed, embracing all the infor« meation which farmers roquire for the intolligent transaction of busi- ness, both as sellers and buyors, THE WEEKLY TRIBUNE is a largo cight-page sheat, of the same gize as the Daily Tribune, consisting of flfty-six columns of -closoly- printod matter, and, as a family newspaper and in its genoral make- up, is unsurpassed by any peper in the land.
