The wholo park system was n swindle. 1t was voted upon the neuply of Chicago by gscallawags who were bought up to do it, and by men who bad real estate speculations to pro- mote by it. But the mischicf was nlready done. Bo far ns the. Park Cominissioners were con- cerned, they were men whose Integrity no one questioned. No matter what they hiad done, THEY SOW BTOOD QUT AGAINBT THE RING that was secking to plunder the people of the gouth Town, and for that reason, for (od’s gake, let them stay there. This investigation was urged by the same ring,—the Dunlevy- Colehour ring. The fdentical reaolutions In- troduced here had been presented to hin at the Pacitlc House, and he had been urged to futro- duce them.

Hayes would lcave ‘o-day d1d not become known until this morning, Ascarly as 10 o'clock the streets between his residence and the depot had nssnmed o hollday appearunce, and vast crowils of peoplefllled thie sidewalks along the routc to the depot. The Columbus Cadets ond other military organizations, preceded by the United States Barracks Bund and n onge procession of clifzens, escorted the Presidential suite to tho depot, where they wers met by an fmmense gathering, - After the Governor's specch, as the private car was attached to the rearof the traln, the ebgincer of the switehing-enging spoke to Gov. Hayes, who was standingat the platform, and safd, *‘Goad-by, Gov. Hy; QGod Dbless you! Gov. Hayes extended his hand. and, as the traln moved off, bade farewell to the cngincer.

A PIECE OF LITTLENESS, In connection with the great outpouring ol the people last night to attend the recep- tion of Gov. and Mrs, ilayes, tho disagreeable fact §s made known that a Dhalf<dozen who were appointed on the Counnittee of Reception came out in cards last evening giving their reasons for not taking part In the reception. It appears that, when the subject was first talked about by prominent tizens of both political partics, it was deemed adyisable to place upon the usual committoes AN EQUAL NUMBER OF EACI POLITICAL PARTY. Tt not belug positively known until late Tues- day night wheu the reception would take place, the Committee held o meeting and appointed botn Iadles and gentiemen to appear and ns- sume the dutles which the Executive Committeo had asslgned theni In the programme which ap- peared In the morning papers. The Democrats on the Exccutive Comtnittee were in the ma- Jority, and nssumed the responsibility of nam- ing certaln persons of thelr party to mct on varlous committees, the Republicaus dolog the same. The time heing so short, thero was no tlme to personally consult with all, and, as the reception was Intended to be above anything naving political slgnificance, the arrangements scemed most porfoct. But, In order TO GIVE THD A¥PAIRR S0MD PARTISAN COLOR, Mr. Bell, wife of the cx-Secretary of State, who was defeated at the luts election bviBarnes, Republican, came out fn & card declining to serve, or In any waoy toking. part m the festivities. This card was followed by another signed by five Democrutie politicans, There ia a feeling of completo disgust by nearly cvery citizen—Democrats as well as Republle- ans—that the signers of these cerds should so far forget cven commou civility os to thus prominently {ntimate that there was any pare tisanship connected with the reception, It is PARTICULANLY EMDARRASSING TO THUE DENO CRATIC MEMDERS on the Committee of Arrangements, who made the appointments in good faith, It is ‘most geatifying to kuow, however, that they were not misscd. That thelr cards have given themn a notorlety which they never ocfore enjoyed Is evident. The distinetion that they have them- selves assumed 18 not of n character to Increaso in any degreoa sentiment of respect and ad- miration among the peoplo of this city, .
