Give us afire station on the West Side ami give the Negro boys a chance to "fight fire." They will prove themselves worthy and will make a record of which the entire city will he proud. We are still against the mis fit constitution and also the patched constitution. We are against a ticket no matter who wants a job. We stand where we have always stood, that is Tor justice and right. Nobodv knows who turned I Insurance the (Negro over to the mob at Osage. Yet the man was in the hands of an officer, and of course the officer was asleep and does not know who took his prisoner. The Hamilton Club proposes to dictate the politics of this county aud Doug is dictating to the Hamiliton Club, If you are for one you are for the other the Douglas platform and all. H. F.

The Phoenix gets the city printing, but its Dem ojratic stockholders see that their masquerader does not sup port Republican officials. . The Republicans can carry this county and district if they are wise enough to do the proper thing now; if not, there will be trouble4 in the future. ljit us have the right kind of harmony not the Douglass brand; the brand which seeks from us the harmony of voice less acquiescence, hut the bar mony which comes from the recognition of the rights of all. The amended, patched -constitution is worse than the first ertort; in fact, it reminds us of the bmmlesome work of an in experienced boy who tried to mend the rent in tlfe rear of his trousers but who failed to cover the rent or to add. to beauty and comfort of his ap navel. Harmony. The degree of harmony now existing in the Republican party is about nil. The fellows who aim to call a County Convention and nominate a ticket by re convening the convention just adiourned will of course add to the harmonious condition of affairs. The conspiracy to commit murder by the assina tion route also adds to the pleas ant condition of things and the grand stand plays of the sprint ing Colonel will put flavor in the harmonious pie. The Grand chorus of the hamiltonians, "where ho leads me 1 will follow." the solo by him of goatee fame, lends color and charm to the concordant chorus, while the bass solo by the borhorts recently admitted to the inner circles of the silk stocking outfit through the tem porary suspension of the color clause adds diversity and pict ureskness to the well attuned whole. This soothing melody will just naturally and irrisist- ably draw all the offices to the hamiltonians. Everything is now serene. All is well from the captain of the squad of liftum dungi to the members of the congressional committee. It also made big chunks offhanuony when chair man Falwoll refused to order a roll call when Huck was defeat ed for member of the State Committee and declared Huck elected. PAINLESS.
