It sorely re- flects on the council, whether guilty of trying to whitewash the af. fair or not, to take such action it did last night. The whole sum and substance in the matter seems to be that the respective factions, one in favor of the city engineer, ‘till death do us part’’ as it were, and the other in favor of Mr. Lyon, the assistant, seem to be afraid of each other. The committee appointed to investi- gate the charges against Mr. Lyon stood two to two, and things were getting pretty warm up at the com- mittee meeting when City Attorney Lightfoot as a conciliatory measure, arose and called attention to the fact that they stood two to two, and could argue the question until dooms- day, and would still two totwo. He Suggested that an ordinance defining the duties of the two officers be sub- stituted for a fight, and they cvom- promised on the ordinance, and de- feered the fight. No charges of incompetency have ever been lodged against Mr, Lyon, however, It would be bad enough lo keep in the employ of the city a man who neglected bis duty.

Mr. Cleveland issued an order to the effect that no officebolder, and es- pecially those in the postal depart- ment, would be permitted to engage actively in politics under penalty of being removed. Mr. Heath has an- nounced that any person in the em- ploy of the postal department would be permitted to engage in the full ex- ercise of his prerogative as a citizen. This, he explains, includes taking part in the primaries of the party to which the employe belongs, attending conventions, making speeches on the campaigo stump, etc. The only qualification made by Mr, Heath is the natural one that the employe must not neglect his duties to the service. Io view of this order of First As- sistant Postmaster General Heath, the postmaster at Owensboro, who took such an active part in the lat ways endangered bis sta.di. with the department, and the fight of Hon, Geo, Jolly against the so called “ring’’ in the Second district less.

Broadway should be reconstructed and the street made of the most sub- stantial material, A storm sewer on Broadway should be built and the city needs » new market house. But it would be most unwise at this time to order or provide for the reconstiuct- ion of Jefferson, Court and Wash- ington streets. The fact that the city’s bonded indebtedness all, should not cause our city fathers to become careless in providing more bonds, The people also when they come to vote bonds, whether for the mayor’s proposition or of a less amount, will no such financial management or ap- parent jobbery as exists in the new public school building. We imagine that it will be difficult for the people to bring themselves to the point of reposing sufficient confidence in the present council as to give it the privilege of letting contracts to the amount of $100,000, THEODORE ROOSEVELT.

They struck a snag when the section of the ordiownce was read relative to plans of sewerage plumbing on houses. Mr. Ezell suggested that there might be some additional cost attached to the d ng of the plans, and wanted it specified that the plans shall be furnished by the plumber without extra charge. How they were to be restrained from making extra charge was not stated. Mr. Elliott didn't think it neces~ sary. He said any one could draw the simple plans required, and no trouble was anticipated on account of it, as the section was taken from the rules of Memphis Capt.

Mr. Elliott, chairman of the sew- erage committee, offered a resclution relative to the duties of assistant city engineer, in lieu of a report in the Lyon investigation. Mr. Ezell asked if the committee offered the resolution as a report. the mayor} Mr. Elliott said it was, Mr. Ezell then said that he was opposed to the resolution as @ report. That be thought it was a good reso- lution, but that there had been no trouble in any of the departments except the engioeering deparment during the ten months the council had been in office and that charges of derelection of duty had been filed against one, and incompetency against the other. He moved that the resignation of City Kngineer Postlethwate and his assistant, Mr. yon, both be requested by the coun: Capt. Fowler said he was in favor of the report and would stand by it. Ut was offered by the committee ap- Pointed to investigate, and he had confidence in their discretion. Mr. Elliott said thought the resolution would remedy the evil and that as the duties would theo be defined, there would be no further clash. He remarked, how- ever, that the next ‘‘racket’’ they had he would be heartily in favor of a motion similar to Mr. Ezell’s. There was no second to Mr, Ezell’'s motion, and the resolution of the committee was adopted, which dis- poses of the recent trouble, all charges having been withdrawn.

There was no action taken because, if avy is necessary it will be taken next Monday, The mayor reported that the city had entered into a contract with the American Carbon Co, to furnish car- bon for the electric plant at $19 per 1000 pairs.
