At the meeting ol Um Common
Council Monday night, the 2nd mist.,
utter adopting the report of the Com?
mittee on Btoeets, quite a spirit?sl
waa ii cition
lr tux
-
volte a franchh>e, it munt be passed
upon adversely by two successive
eoiineils. It was adopted as recom
mended, but later, defeated in the
Run rd of Aldermen.
Upon motion of Mr. Burke, ? com
mittee had been appointed to pro?
vide , rive pHvim ts lor Clay Ward,
Alderman Ruben wno a member of
Use committee rle Raid he bad not
been notified of any meeting and ac?
cordingly had no {?roposition for
one more precinct in Jackson Ward.
Hf declared t hat lie would not sign
Um report for a precinct in Clay
Ward, unless they would sign his
report. Be told Councilman Mitch?
ell thc condition of affairs, who secur?
ing a copy of thc City Ordinaacea
pCOCeodedT to draft a division of the
Ward into rive precincts, defining
boundaries, lt was about two hours
wuk, and was being done while the
routine business of the Council was
being transacted.
When it was ready, A liter lim ll
Hallen took it to the Committee, and
td though some of them bad promis?
ed to sign it, they refused. Ile being
the only Republican member OD the
Committee, his name only was .-im?
pended. It was regarded useless to
proceed further wita the Committee.
Later, when Councilman burke
arose to offer the report of the Com?
mittee in laver of live precinct! in
Clay Ward, Hr. Mitchell offered is au
amendment an ordinance for five
precincts in Jackson Ward. It was
read, although it. embraced three
pages ol foolscap.
When the president was about to
pat the question. Mr. Mitchell arose
and said; "Mr. President, it .^
vident that no more important
measure has been offered in this
Chandler affecting as it does the fair
name of the"city of seven hill. "
We come, sir, to ask you give us
justice. Gentlemen, if all ol you
could have visited Jackson Ward
and have seen that long line, in
which could be found men who had
gone there at \> o'clock the night
before ami have witnessed this Rae
standing there when Uta sun went
down on election day yon would l
think Ix1 disposed ttl vote for this
measure, lt has been announced in
the House ol Representatives, thai
you lia ve DO desire to retard the
Colored men in the exercise of the
electi\e ^franchise. You have an op?
portunity tonight to demonstrate
that fact.
You have announced that as in
comparison to the men of the North,
you are our best friends, yon haVe
an opportunity now to prove it. I
need not sir, gO tO the Constitution
of the United States, for the Hill of
Rights of old Virginia guarantees
to us rights and privileges. Every
citizen by its pro visions has the
righi to cast one ballot and have it
counted as he cast it.
I do not ask for a division tonight
on party lines, but would prefer one
upon that of religion. This is a
baptist Council, or rather the major
iny of the members are baptists,
anti 1 am a baptist. If upon no
other plea, that tit* religion should
affect you.
Gentlemen, I tit) not understand
how you can hesitate in this matter.
It was tho black man that stood
by yon during the late war. lt was
the black mammy, in the words of
i but now dead Henry
iv. who sleeps beneath the
valley, ......t. "led you
smiliu:r|i:ito sleep." Tht -se black man
al, that although it
ail stronger chaine
that bound also wore the gray.
They too threw up your
breast works, anti I might ask you
to do them justice, (live them more
precincts in Jackson Ward.
Gentlemen all of us stands sworn
toi recognise the civil and political
?equality of all men before the law.
Wc cannot enter noon the linties of
?office without taking that obliga?
tion, and I beseech you to act square
ly in this matter and give to US
those privileges guaranteed bj the
laws of our mother-state."
The report ol the Committee on
Elections was adopted. Councilman
Courtney stated that as it was an
important matter, he'd move to
refer to the Committee on Elections.

before tlying as Mrs. Hettie Lewis
and amit her witness testified he
gave her his keys, papers ftc and
told he that he left her all of his
worldly possessions. This of course
under the law could not apply to Iuh
real estate, but strange to say the
bulk of his property was in bonds,
Stock vV.c it? the snug amount of
two hundred ami twenty four thous?

away. The total value of property
including his real estate WOUld reach
a quarter ol a million tit dollars.
Allie counsel have been employed
on both sides, and the fight promis

Thomas always acknowledged
his colored daughter, and she will
contend kw the personal property
he left her. His nearest white heirs
are cousins.

thought that the ea the
Supervisors system, now billowed in
the large cities, would be be most
satisfactory to the country, and this
view was adopted.
The committee was instructed to
report a bill providing that Super?
visors shall l>e appointed In every
Congressional district in which loo
roten ask for it. These Supervisors
are to have all tho power to partier
patt- ia the registration, thc voting
and the count of the ballots BOW

large cities. The Chief Supervisor,
who is appointed by the Circuit
Court, ami certain subordinates, .-in?
to form a board in each district, to
certify tt) the Clerk of the Louse the
result of the election, and the candi?
date st) certified is to have tbe prima
Lacie right to tba seat.
Representative Frank.of st. Louis,
made an excellent speech in support
of the measure, but opposed t he sea t
ing even temporarily of a member
holding the certificate of the Board
of Supervisors unless at the same

cate. The Howell bill provided that
in case the Supervisors and the Gov?
ernors did not agree that the seat
