THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY. OCTOBER 6, IST8—SIXTEEN PAGES flo pot betray the least apparent consciousness (bt they are zuiley of @ mean and selfish act. : it isa question not yet settled oy the on etiquette whether or not it is a leman's duty to et up aund stand and wa lady to usurp the seat that hss cost s five cents, We hold to the opiuion that it s merely a matter of taste or of politeness on the partof the gentleman. Tlere are many zood . peacons why the ladies sbould do their share of ke standing. Ouu is, that they appear to much better sdvantage, and show off their -rood ciothes to better effect, than they do when Seated: and to display their iue feathers is one of the cief comforts of female existence. —————— Judge BraDWELL has been requested by a Sarge umber of the citizens of the Second Dis- trict (Second, Third, and Fourth Wards, Hyde Park, and Lake) to be an fndependent candidate far Representative to the Generul Asscably, and ke has eonsented. The call is signed frre- epective of party. While the Judge is a Repub- T1zan in polities, he Is not willing to submit his name ‘o a Convention which may be manipu- Jated by certain wire-pullers, as was done in the First District. e vrefers to 2o to Springfield yntrammeled and gupledzed, whea he am work for the best interests of the people with- out cmbarrassment. Judze BRADWELL was * cletted to the House four years ago by an im- mense majority, and wasanexcellent Represent- ative. ‘The experience he then acquired would be valnsble to him this winter. Those who have asked him to run are confident be can be elect- ed. A great many Democrats will undoubtedly vate for him, as they are disgusted withthecsn- didate the Bummer Convention ground out for them; and if they “plump” every vole counts three. The Southern States, 2 Democratic paper pub- Jished in Okolona, Miss., in its issue of* Sept. 95, 1875, speaking of the anuouncement that Ronznr LixcoLy will mot be a Congressional candidate in Titinois this fatl. says:” & That begins 10 1ok hetter. 1t 6eems that the e of the Liscorx family i8 losing its power, even in the former hot-bed of its popularity. That 3¢ just as it should be. It bespeaks a better time, for the white wreath of conciliation will never be twined by Southern hands above the altar of the Thion while the people of Paritama uphold the memory of LiNCOLN,—2 memory that we loathe ¥nd-abiior as we Joaihe and abhor the memory of 8oy other tryant.

The Springfield Liepublican says: The latest ease of the clergyman in politics is the ‘ pomination for Congress by the Nationals in the Rochester District of the Rev. A. B. LAMBERTON, 2 snpernumerary Presoyterian minlster, a rich wife and a hankering after public Jife.

Judge Bradwell is a candidate for the Legis- laturc io the Second Senatorial District. Ie has announced himsclf as such before the peo- ple—not before the Ward Club. Fér of the tyranny aud the blood-sucking capacities of such an orzanization, he ssys. he bas had - qaite cnough It was known that Judee Bradwell was o candidate, and it was probably due to that fact that e was astonished a day or two ag0 by the receipt of the following letter: CicAGo. Sept. 27. 1878.—Judge James B. Brad- iwell—DEAR Stn= The Third Ward Club recently appoluted a commitiee to make urrangements for a mecting at Central Hall, Twenty-second street, to be sddressed exclusively by candidales for the dif- ferent offices on the South Side.

Very traly yours, the cotleetions. VEF 0¥ "Bivien, Secretary. he Judee is an old campaigner in theso m’{is, but he was ]dm:idcdlv stageered when he . his letter. 1o {lflei"}:rt Seen anything of the like. He had never before known of a candidate being charged 20y- thing for the privilere of making a’specen. T'he thing above all others which he had con- sidered was Irce in this counlry was speech- making. He did not feel inclined to lend his countenance to this new-faneled idea of taXing aman for the benefit of a bar in order to enable bim to make u speech to the persons whom be desired to represent, so he did not send in Diis contribution. A reporter for THE TRIBONE, in whose bands thie *letter came, Was also as- tonished by it. e was familiar, as is evers- Loy, with the rapacity with which candidates for ofice are assailed by the mob of strikers, Dlowers. bummers, dead-beats, ‘and intluential politicians, who hung around .saloons and politi- Eal beadquarters, but he has pever Known be- fore of this sort of business being resorted to by a ward clud prior to. nomination, and that | club, too, belonging in one of the wealthicst and best wards in.the aty. - He knew. thag this sort of business was flourishing in New York and in Brooklyn to the rreat delectation of those fellows who, put for this system of direct taxation upon candidates, wonld otherwise spend the scasons in the Bride- well or the Boorbos But he had uo idea of it introduction here. i "G B MR. BIRCH'S NAME' appaared on the document, he went in search of that gentleman for the purposc of finding out what he knew about it. = “Who authorized you to send letters to can- didates asking them for money{” said the re- vorter. - «There was 8 Committee of the Third Ward Club appointed s0me Liwo Or tiree Weeks 320 fur Hamill, e T. Bright, Dryan, Harvey Edgerton, C. 8. Fiela, » James John, W. P. Black. James N. Yourg, Elot Bawley, 3. 1. McCausland, the purpose of arranging for a candidates’ meeting to be held at Central Hall, and the Club made it a partof the duty of the Com- mittec to raise money to pay the éxpenses, The Committee met and decided that ench candidate should pay so much if he chose to.” “\Vho compose tue Committee?”? “ Mr. Jayne, Mr. Guild, Dr. Montgomery, Mr.Wheeler,—{ think thatis hisname,—andmy- self. We met anl divided up the work.” “'\What part was assigned to you?? “ After huvinz assessed prorataas mear as they could the different candidates, they assizn- edto me the_ task of writing the letters and notifying them ot the fact:” * [hd any of them send you money?? ¢ “Yes * How many did you rend letters to?” “ [think { sent letters to every candidate on the South Side except Couch and " ex-Ald.

That would e $U3 in all " “Yes." “ How was that.to be paid but?” *The reut ol the ball i3 $25; music,—there was to be a band-wagon if there was movey enough,—325 or $30; posters, $10 or §15, and also advertising.” * How many- responded *? “ Notall.” How many?? ** Oue County Commissioner, two legislators, and one Congressmwan did not.™ “Did you approve of this assessmeat busi- ness?” *“The task was imposed upon me—a disa- greeable one—and I disliked very much to do it. I was, o the first place, opposed to any siich meeting, aud_endeavored to get the Cou- mittee into communication with committees of the Fourth and Second Wards, and to a have 2 mass-meeting and_good spealie out refercuce to their being caudidates. proposition was objected to by the Committee, because they were appointed to et up & candi- dates’ meeting, and, if the other were bely, the Club would have to pay the expenses, when it bad limited them to the candidates, mwany of whom were seen before apything was 8aid about the meeting, and -bad agreed to bear their share. ' The letters were worded so that it they wanted to they could pay, and if they did not wani to the could leave it alone, - The expeénses would be about §85 anyhow.” * Isu't it customary for the Club to pay for such a meeting” "~ - “+1¢ is very unusual to have such @ meetiog, and, as 1 said, 1 opuosed the resolution, but the Club refused to pay, the understanding being that the candidates were to foot the bilis.”” Mr. Birch intended to move g reconsideration of the action at the meeting of the Ciub last evening, but was unable to_muke the mation, not arriving until after Mr. Jayne had reported progress, as mentioned elsewhere. e sad to the reporter that he would send back vhe, money he had received, g8 it was not cnoush anyhow o puy theexpenses. The wmeeting, bowerer, will be held, at least so said Mr. Kirk Hawes. THE EXPLANATION which Mr. Bircn makes shows that he is acting simply in au otleial capacity; that the action of the Club seemed to him unwisc and in bad taste; and that he fought it. While he is thus relieved, the stigma sull remaws upon the Club. 1t is a reproach upon those prowmincut citizens who are members of it that they should have allowed themselves to have been swamped by the rabble and to bave permiticd the inaugura- tion of such a system of blackmail,—for it is but little else. 'The talk about taXing these men in order that the Club wmay be free from expenses scunds very poor when 1t comes from an organization which is better able, perhaps, than uoy similar one in the ¢ity to reise funds for all campaign purposes. The expeases of the meeting are esttmated to amount to about §55. It is a strange thivg'if the Tnird Ward Clab is unable to grapple with the payment of that amount. No, the excnse is a worthless one. It is simply an attempt on the partof a little crowd thar happened to eapture the Club that evening to. fntroduce here the system in vogue ot the Last. If it is legalized, it the Cinb does not retract this step, otlers will imitate it, and jr will- become com- mon law here that from the mowment a man is anuounced, or_auuounces himself, as a candi- aate down to the hour waen the polls ¢lose on election day, he is to be 8 prey to.the members of his own party in their collective nnd organ- 1zed capacity. It has been the custom at the meetings of the various ward candidates, before und after nomijvation, to put up the beer and the cizgars. But this is about the first time in Chi- cago'that a direct monetary tax -has been levied upon candiaates. This evil esample is already being iwitated, and some of the clubs on the West Side are getting ready to levy a poll-tax upon the men who want to represent that sec- sfon of the city.’ If not checked now, it proba- bly will become a rule,—certainly if the ball is sct in motion Yy a club like that which existsin the Third Ward. . TAXATION. “TRE TOIRD WARD REPUBLICAN CLUB held a regalar weekly meetines last evening, g all his_cxpericnee he bad- President Custer in the chair. There were about 200 members present. On motion of Col. Roberts,jthe selection of delegates to Couaty and Senatorlal Conventlons was postponed for oe week. Mr. Jayne reported that the arrangements for the mass-meeting- to be held ac Central Hall Tuesday evening were progressiug, and the prospect was that tuere would be a large turn- out. ‘The Special Committee, composed of Messrs. Lazarus Silvermau, D. K. Tenney, ira W Buell, aod A. J. Galloway, ‘appointed to cxamine and report upon the best meaos for reduciog the burdens of municipal -taxation in this elty and county, submitted a report, which isin sub- stance as follows: The main object for which the Committee was raised was to find out the best means to bo sugzested for the reduction of the rate aud gross amount of taxation now levied for all pur- poses Ly the several municipal corporations in thecounty. The Committee recognizethe imoor- tance of the reduction of* the number of agen- cies for imposing, collecting, und disbursing public revenues, but find constitutfonal obstruc- tions which prevent the decrease of their num- ber. ‘There are at present a2 County and City Government, three: Town Boards, and varfous Park Boards, all with ‘power to levy taxes. Were it coustitutional to legislate speciatly for municipal corporations, and if the present constitutional provision re- garding new counties did not exist, the ecity Imight be so enlarzed ds to take in all the parks and other suburban_appendages, abolishivg: the town system ana substitutive one wunitipal povernment for all existing oues. , This, how- ever, is impossible. - The real value of all property in Itlinols is estimated to be $1,800,000,000, $i00,000, being in lands, $500,000,000 in tuwn lots, $200,- 000,000 in railroads, und $400,000,000 fu persoual property. About one-sisth of this belongs in Cook County. A tax of 2 per cent thereon would yield an annual revenue ot 56,000,000, leaving off 600,000 as deducted as the share of the State revenne from Cook County, §5,400,000,—a sum more than sufficient to cover every legitimate local expenditure. If this revende could be lonestty and fairly assessed, the burden of tax- tion would not be onerous to bear. But such an nssessment canopot be made until the valua- tions for the whole county are under the charyre of one single head. When the proper data had been once fumly obtained and recorded ina permanent form, a very tew experts, under the direction of an efficient head, could make all the additions and subtractions {rom year to year requisite to main an equitable distribution of public burdens. 'The change iv the mode of making assessments could be_eflected with- out any chanze in‘ the State Constitution by ordinary legislation, and this alone would be a great reliel. - The total amount of taxeslevied in_Cook County for .municipal purposes 1o 1877 was $7.379,692. Could tms aggregate be reduced to the sum previously mentioned, and the assess- ment be honestly made, the exactions from ‘the present real taxpavers would probably not ex- ceed 50 per cent of the present amounnts paid py them. Indeed, a fair distribution slone would almost secure that result. In addition to the amount: collected for mu- nicipal purposes, the State tax was $651,573, mgking a total of $8,061270 paid by Cook Coun- 1y, exclusive of special Assessments. °; The aceregate valuation of 1378 is a littie over $197,000,000,—64 value of the entire wealth of the countv as compared with the' total ' computed wealth of the State, white the State . Board claims ‘10 have equalized ‘on a Dbisis per cent [or the- entire-State. T'his addition of 14 per cent to the valuation of Cooit County was offset by a reduction of about 3 per cent from the averare for tne rest of the State, which is valued; on tke average, at a little over 47 per cen. This overvaluation dves not _nex rily joerease mumcapal taxation, but itis feared the opportuwry wiil be seized “clubs' tor the* per ceut of the par | on by taz-imposing Boards to force the lovy to the hizhest coustitutional limit. The Committee do not wish to be understood as censuring officers, but rather the system itself which confers such vast and dangerons oV Ly 1t is sugeested that the Club pass a resolution cordially inviting organized clubs of all partics in the county to unite it & cancerced demand upon the lesislative delegation from Cook County to seek for the passuge of 2 law abol- ishing the oflice of Town Assessor in counties containing more than 100,000 inhabitants, and authoriz:ng the Governor to appoint, with the consent of the Senate, & competent person for cach of such countles to be desiznated as a @ County Supervisor of Revenue,” or “County Assessor,” to hold office for four years, with power to appoint all necessary assistants or clerks, ete. It is also recommended that, in order to se-, cure the more prompt pavmen? of taxes when due, and to remove slt cxeuse for ‘temporary loans on the issue of certificates agaiust 1uture callections. the time for redemption from tax- sales be extended to five years, the purchaser at such sales to be allowed 20 per cent per anuum, not only upon the purchase-money, but all sut- sequent taxes paid Ly bim, and the certain re- funding of his money, with-lawfal iaterest, from thie State, county, or ¢ity, When the sale proves to have been illegal-or void as agulnst the original owner. A reasonable penalty deainst delinquents should be provided to protect the purchasers where redemptions are made within _six_ months or a vear from the date of sale. The rate of interest would he ample to_secure purchasers of delin- quent taxes ifabsolute seeurity azaivst ultimate fuss were provided, and the five years would makea zood investment for capital, and give reasonable time for unfortunate owners to re- cover from tinancial embarrassment. If final failure should result, and the purchaser dcquire title; his cquitics wonld be'greatly fortified, and the courts look much more’ favorably upon his title than they uow do. ‘Lhe report was accepted, and Mr. Gibbs moved that it be adopted. 3 DISCUSSION. Alr. W, f. Eddy moved to strilce out “20 per cent on subsequent taxes.” - “Ihie Cliair ruled the motion out of order; the poiut being made by Mr. Galloway that the re- port of 4 comtnittee could uot be smended. Mr. Tenney suid there was a zood deul of talk about taxes, but nive-tenths of the people didn’ kuow what the trouble was. It was not steal- ing’ but the faulty assessment of property. If thé taxes could be equally distributed “upon realty and personalty the burden would be com- aratively light,—not more than balf what it is. fle had looked into the matter of taxable real- estate in the city, and was satisfled that its salue was $1,200,000,000, but be had placed it at 3900,000,000 to be "inside. The assessment last year was $94,000,000. - The personalty liable to taxation was not less than $300,000,000. In 5 ent was $19,000,000. e had more than that himself. {Laughter.] A voice—Were you assessed! Mr. Tenuey—Not a doilar, [Renewed laugh- ter.] £ 1ie went on to say that some of this property was assessed at 75 and 80 cents on the dollar, and some of it at. 5 cents. The $19,000,000 was not a *flea-bite 7; nine-tentbs of the personal proper wasn't assessed at all. There was no pretense to cquality, * How_miich money do you suppose was in Chicazo May 1, 18771" he asked. Quoting from the report of the State Board, he answered $19,000. [Lsughter.) ile read a lony list of the corporations which were not assessed at all on_ their capital stack, aud, he said, many of them did not pay taxes on 5 per cent of their taxable property. The whole railroud property in the State was assessed at £36,000,000,—hardly 10 pet cent of its value, in the speaker’s judemwmt. One of the ‘principal difficulties now encountered in taxation was that no man dared to be honest in making o statement of hik "personalty, because he knew lus neighbor woald not be. It was dog cat dog all over the State, cach Assessor trying to eet the lowest assessment. He favored a Stute Assessor with_deplics in cach county, —a systemn modeled afterthat of the Geueral Goveérnment, which collected fromall equitably. There would then be no témptation for s coun- ty to get down Jow. No min who depended on votes was safe. [Applause.] The State As- sessor should be appointed by the Governor, and he should have power tospy out the sneak: Mitlions could be discoveréd’ LY bim. Mr. Ten- ney concluded by advoeating the adoption of the resolutions suggested in the report. Air.

The, Sputh Town made no levy, s it had Some mond{ilets over;-the West Town levied $58,000, anddtne North Town 871,- 000. Thic assessment of Lake was $823,000, of which §233,543 was delinquent taxes of previous years, the owners ha abandoned the prop- .erty . because. they. could not.. pay the taxes. Hyde Park levied 'a tax' gy $350,000, aod \the vroperty apandoned was ore than the amount of the taxes.

He indorsed Mr. Teuney’s idea us to & State Assessor. Under the present assessment the'rates were §7.90 on real estate apd §6 on personaity. le thought the expenses of the local, (jovernment could be reduced two or three millions.

LOGAN was then called ou for au (nccount of bis trip throujeh the State, but he ouly said that there was more juterest and gobd fecling than for- mely, things looked welicund bopeful, and he believed if the Republicans woried hard and faithfully they could carry the State by a hand- sowe majority.

The First Ward Republican Club held a regu- lar meeting in League Hall (Grand Pacitic Ho- tel) last evening, at which nearly 100 members were present, among thein the on. Jonn Went- worth and other promiuent gentlemen.” Abuer Taylor, President, occupied the chair. 8.R. Keozh offered preambles and resolutions regarding the conduct of the First Senatorial District Convention, The first preamble stated that the right aod title invested in all conven- tions'to a fair and impartial hearing and decis- fon in seating contesting delerations was {rus- trated and denied by the arbitrary actiou of the Tenth Ward delegation, alded and assisted by a Chairman who was wrongfully seated by the Senatorial Uommittee, two members of which were candidates seeking nominations. The sec- ond preamble recited that the said delegates, tozether - with a coutesting dclegation from the = Ninth Ward, did, in violation of _the nprinciples of equity aud justice, and_without belng properly cou- vened, and in deflance of the carnest protests of the First Ward deleration, attempt- to place in nomination condidates for lerislative honors. The third preamble notices the withdrawal of 1he First Ward delezation and the contesting delezation from the Niuth Ward from what is termed the ** Nominating Mob.” The resolu- tions called for an_indorsement of. the action of the First Ward delesation and a repudiation of the actfou ot the *-said nominating mob and its maniputators,’” and piedred the support of the Club_in benalf of the nomineces of the First Ward and the contesting Ninth Ward deleza- tions. .Mr. Keozh spoke strongly in’ favor of the resolutions after moving their adoption. Messrs. M. R. Bacon, . Rockwell, and Lewis Coburn spoke in opposition to the resolu- tious. Mr. D. W. Nickerson made a statement of the occurrences in the First Senatorial District Coovention, and said tne First Ward would give the alleged bulldozing deleations to under- stand that they could 1ot run it as they saw fit. And the three gentlemen who had spoken be- 1ore him were defeated candigates on a delegate ticl b Mr. M. H. Naber ex | difficuity would be amic: . ‘the party could not suceeed with two tickets. He did not favor the passaze of the resofutions, and-moved 2 postponement of. their considera: tion for two weeks. Capt. Stephen F. Brown questioned the ex- padiency and poliey of condemning tne Repub- Ticans of the Ninth and ‘Tenth Wards, and said it struck hitn as « queer way to solicit the votes of those wards. Sy A ‘The questjou was called for on the motion to postpone the consideration of the resolutions g&r two weeks, and it was lost by & tie vole,~ 3 to Capt. Brown theri’ moved a postponcment for one weeky but it found no ‘second. and 8 vote was taken on the motion to adopt tne_resolu- thons, whith stood 24 to 23 in favor theréof. The Club then adjourned.

R, Corbin, Charles Hardin, R. M. Berlitzheimer. The mauner in which the proper number should be sclected from_the lot caused quite au animated discussion. Mr. Washington Hesing strongly opposed the selection of the men who rccelved the highest number ol votes, but urged that the wames be put.in a hat and the proper numbers be drawn there- trom, Ileclaimed that therc existed a ring in the ward which tried to control things and bhad the names for Jelegates already in their pock- ets. To prove these assertions, he produced a postal-card which hud been seut to certain mem- bers of the Club, and which contained the fol- 12 invitation: ) iere will be 8 meeting of the Eightcenth Ward for consultation.

Finally a motion by Mr. Coliyer, that ail candidates be sclected by the Club in the usual manuer, prevailed. Mr. Mulliken, Chairman of the Committee to look into the qualifications of candidates for position ou the Republican ticket, -stated that thus far the Committec had takenno steps o the matter, but would do so as soon as pos- sible. On motion, the Committee was discharmed. ‘The following were elceted as the candidates for tie Club as delegates to the County-Con- vention: L. C. Huck, E. A. Otis, J, C. Brooks, Dr. Isham, H. W.

THE FIATISTS. : Flaving at last managed to scrape together a few Fiatists in the county towns, the party managers wot them together yesterday at No. 119 Dearborn street for the ourpose of nominat- ing Commissioners. The Convention consisted of eleven delegates, while there were about as many lovokers on. . After three hours of bard work, the following ‘were nominated : Secona District—H. F. Holcomb, of Jeflerson, who i8 Superintendent of s silver-plating estab- lishment inthe city. Fourth District—A. D. Titsworth, ex-Police Commissioner, who as- pired to the Shrieralty aud falled, and then put his eyes on Congressman and el sbort again. He now hails from Lyons. 8ixth District—. 1I. Sikely, of Lemont,—subject, however, to ro-Y consideration, if he is not a Fistist, he beinz on the Democratic ticket. s NOTES. Tt is reported that Judwe Lambert Tree, can- didate for Congress in the Third District, has declined the nomination, and that, at a gather- ing of prominent Democrats in Chicazo last ‘Phursday ‘evening, it was decided to urge the name of Dr. N. 8. Davis, of Eyanston. It will be remembered that Dr. Davis’ name was before the Convention, and that ne showed great strength. ¢ A very lively contest 1S’ going on between the friends respectively of J. R. Fitch and C. G. Arcrs, candidates tor the Couniy Commission- The excitement is likely to culminaig in a elosely-fought battle at the primary Satur” day. The friends of eack candidate are confi- deut of sccuring the delegation. O. Huse will also make a_struzgle for the same, it is said, but it is believed be has no chance whatever of success. A weeting of Greenbackeré, generally averse to MeNally and all his works, aud dignifying themselves by sn assumption of the title of Execative Committee, was held last evening at Burke’s Hotel. Mr. George W. Waite was called to the chair, and several expressed their regrets at the dissenslons fn the party end their desire for a revrmanization, and sn ern of peace, good-will, aud more greenbacks. After 8 vast amount of palaver, it was decided to meet this afternoon at 3 o’clovk in Maskell Hall for the purpose of explaining the objects of the Greenbuack party and putting it to the meeting whether it will acceot the present nominees or make other nominauions. Scanlan, Murphy, and other orators will let themselves Joose in an en- deavor to reconcile the, at present, conflicting clements in the party. The Esecotive Committee of the Seveath Senatorial Republican League met at the Grand Paciflc vesterday afternoon. The object was to inake arrangements for conducting the campudgn, but in the discussion which tovk place the sentiment scemed to be that o yumediste action would be premature. It was the gencral impression tha’ the Committee, while acting in harmony with the County Campaign Commit- tee, could, do effective -work independent of that body, and sbould be allowed tomanage the campaign in_the Sevemth District with the ITunds to be allotted toit. The tollowinz Com- mittee was appointed to consult with the can- didates and others, and prepare a plau of action to be submitted to the full League Oct. 1f: E. P. Hanson, of Worth; Myer Bioom, of Wheel- jng; aod E. J. W ead, of Cicero. Col. Payve was added. The Committee then ad- journed. 0. L. MANN. To the Editor of The Tribune.
