r. fleyl'i Opportunity.
Andrew II. Dill deee net accept Wm.
I Scott's statement that Dill was tlie
Mdfdate of tlie Pennsylvania railroad
fefKOTMrmr. Mr. Dill ought te knew
Id this natter whereof he speaks ; but he
does net content himself with his own
authority, referring Mr. bcett for partie
alar Information te his friend, Mr. A. J.
Cassatt.
New, It must be admitted that this is a
particularly happy reference, net only
bccauseMr. Cassatt Is known te be fully
posted upon tlie political predilections
of the Pennsylvania railroad at tlie time,
being the head devil in Its manipu
lations of that kind and having
ft particular iutetcst In the ene thing
which It wns then gunning for ; but also
because Mr. Cassatt Is new a very par
ticular friend and financial chum of Mr.
Scott. They are together In various en
terprises, having lately been bearing
Jersey Central and Heading ; wlicre their
fingers were burnt, and having, therefore,
the cohesion of comrades iu suffering ;
and being new engaged In building :i
railroad down the Peninsular Sounds,
from newhere te nowhere, upon nothing
but bends, but expecting te be n link in
a coast line extending te .Charleston,
and te And their sands golden and te
make their water wine.
New, It is clear, upon the mentl in of
these circumstances, that Mr. Cassatt Is
just the man for Mr. Scott te ask whom
he and the Feuns lvanla railroad sup
ported for governor in 1S78. In fact, It
seems se peculiarly appropriate that Mr.
Scott should seek this Information from
Mr. Cavatt, before stating that the
Pennsylvania railroad was for Dill, that
we are almost persuaded that he did sd.
Butithedid, Mr. Cassatt mint have
told him that he and the Pennsylvania
railroad were for Heyt In the election,
unless he lied te him, which he doubt
less did net, since he would have no par
ticular object in se doing.
But Mr. Cassatt may have told him also
that be was for Dill for the Democratic
gubernatorial nomination ns against
Hepkins, ns that was doubtless the fact.
ItiB, In truth, only this Unit Mr. Scott
clearly stated, though as he emitted te
mention that alter the nomination the
Pennsylvania railroad was for lleyt, Mr.
Dill. Is justified in construing htm te
have intimated that he and net lleyt
was the Pennsylvania railroad candi
date. And se te deny It ; and te quote Cassatt
in contradiction et it; and te refir him le
Cassatt for Information as te the narrow
escape he had from being tent te the
penitentiary fur bribing the Legislature
te ray Ihe riot bill. Mr. DM says
that it wns the consideration for the
Pennsylvania railroad's support of
lleyt that he should support the
riot bill. A consideration of this
character has been generally un
derstood, and new Mr. Heyt has nn
excellent opportunity te correct it if it is
uet true. The ex governer.beine a vcrv
reputable and clever gentleman, by leug
odds the ablest and decentest Hepubll
ran politician in Pennsylvania, has a
standing te maintain, which calls en him
te correct the Impression, if it In false,
tnnt no inpseu irem grace aim compro
mised his integrity bya bargain with Mr.
Cissatt, which could net honorably he
made.
"We would have known all ab nit this le: g
ngeitMr. Kembleand his fellow prison
era had net se obligingly kept, their
mouths closed as te the fact of their em
pleyment by Mr. Cas3att ; a politeness
ler which, however, they seen had their
reward in their early relcisa from im
prisonment. The governor was kind, as
they had ticeu kind, and they came out
of jail as Cissatt had kept out. By all
means let Mr. Scott ask Mr. Cassatt
about theie things, and th"i tell what
he hears. It will be decidedly mere
preDtable than te be opening old sores in
the Democratic family and seeking te
set Its monitors by the ears. We invite
Mr. Scett'a attention te the Republican
patty, ami Gov. llejt's attention le him-
Etlf.
The County Tax.
The Republican members of ;he pres
ent beard of county commissioners de de
serve no credit whatever for their
boasted reduction of thoceuiiy debt en
or about the first of April tills uar. In
1883, when they proposed te levy a three
mill county tax, ex Commlsileuer Ment
geinery demonstrated unmistakably
through these columns that a two and a
half mill rate of tax would raise sulll sulll sulll
clentmoney te meet all the expenses of
the county and pay off a large ah.ne of
the debt, qulte ns much in was neces
sary te be paid in nny slngle year. In
the face of this, the commissioners In
slated en the unnecessarily high tax
levy. The county tax Is paid in early In
the summer and fall. Many of the col
lectors, In order te make the five per
cent, abatement for themselvei, pay the
tax te thoceunty before they themselves
have gathered It in. The result is
a great plethora et money In the
CJimty treasury from about August te
Ayril. It Is net needed for public lues,
and the fact that in the present cam
paign the deposit and control et the
tretsury balances are a great stake In
me uepuuucan contest gives force te
the suspicion that the extra tux levy of
one half mill was imposed for the pur
poss of raising money from the people
for private benellts. Commissioners
Sumuiynnd Myers cannot plead any
error of judgment in this matter, for they
were shown at the outset of the year that
their levy was inordinate. They muit
nnswer te the peeple for having collected
a hundred thousand dollars from them
for the baneflt of thesa who have the usa
of it.
This year they reduced the tax rate te
2 mills, thereby admitting that last
year's levy was oxcesslve ; hut as Mr.
Myers is a candidate f)r reelection It is
likely the reduction was made for enm
palgn purposes ; it is being used that
way. But I he burned child ought te
avoid thn Are. The policy which Mr.
Myers has represented in olllce eheuld
recelve emphutie condemnation. Treas
ury surpluses and heavy taxes te raise
money for balances te be kept en dopeslt
eight months In the year, nre tlie bane et
geed government nml it temptation te
official extravagance.
Edwin Stuiieis, of the Mtitz school
beard, it Is reimrted te us, says that he
did net knew what he wns doing when
he signed a petition that thoceunty com
missleners should award the collection
of the county tax In Warwick township
te the higher bidder. Perhnps net, but

Itie Inaugural AUilress.
Mr. Chairman nnd Gontleraen of tbe
Joint Conveutlen :
In assuming the ofllce of mayor of La n
caster eity, I feel oenfiout that I will
roceivo your oerdial cooperation Iu the
dlsaharge of my official duties.
Having full contldeuoo in your honest
intentions aud legislative wisdom, our
united offerta should proveadvautageous te
the affairs of the municipality whleh we
uew have iu ohnrge,
Constituted as our city goverument new
is, both the oxecutive aud loglnlatlve
branches being of the aame politieal coin cein coin
plexleu, thore will be no escaping the
responsibility should bad government
prevail. Tbe important Interest of a eity
llke ours requires eareful supervision.
A population of 25,000 persons will leek
te us te se regulate their inuuleipal affairs
that they will peaceably enjoy their rights
as oitizens ; and that the taxes they pay
will be eoenomloally expended, and that
they will reoelvo substantial value there thero there
fer. Te give them nu efficient and economi
cal administration I believa will be the
honest effort of us all
The citizens are te be congratulated that
there will net hercafter be auy danger of a
water famine, ene of the greatest calami
ties thnt could befall any community.
Tlie new (1,000,000 gallons Worthlngteu
pump Is new nearly completed, and but
for want of connection with the twenty
four Inch main pipfl, would today be,
pumping water This pump, lu addition
te the present 9 000,000 gdleu pump of
the same make, will furnish all the water
required for years te oemo
List S iturday I accepted the kind Invl .
tntien el Hen. Jehn T. MaeG jnlgle and
the water oemmitteo te acenuptny them
en their last official visit te the wtterl
weiks, nnd had the pleasure of witnessiinr i
the movement of this beautiful ami power
ful ptoeo of mechanism, I
loe much credit cannot be given te
thnie through whose efforts the elty has
e ene into possession of this pump I
hope, however, Hint it will net be taken
amiss If I here mention that the pump hns
net been pild for, nor has any prevision
been made for Its payment by any nppre
priatien out of the anticipated receipts for
this year. In Justice te ouraelvos and
without intending any reduction upon the
former administration it is but right that
the cltlzjns should understand that we
are encumbered by heavy debts left un
paid by the firmer administration and
that if the negotiation of a new lean or an
Increase of the tax rata becomes neeessary
It is net by reason of nny expenditure en
our part. I simply wish that the rospen
slhtbty should be placed whero It preperly
beleng, With your permission I will
further state that I find that teal ostate
consisting of four engine beuses, pur
abused by the late administration, nre te
te be paid for by us. I knew that you
may answer me that they have been pre
vided for by appropriations out of our ex
pected receipts for this year. That Is re ;
but it has necessitated the cutting down
of the appropriation for repairs of streets
uid ether npptoprlaMen te such an ex
tent that the unecssary work canuet be
dene.
The flre department of our elty l effi
cient. The city Is net, ns under the old
system, being constantly thrown Inte
excitement by false at inns of 11 re and the
promptness aud disaiphti displayed when
a tire actually does occur ontltles this
department te our support and commenda
tion. There e in be no room for doubt that
thore is almost universal eimplaint of our
citizens ngatust the present moth id of
lighting thn streets with the Maxim
olectrie light Tlie failure of se many of
the limps te bum when they are most
needed and the high flgure that is bMtig
raid for this light Is sufibleut cause.
Tbe division of seme of our largest wards
into voting preclucts is being spikeu of,
aud if seme of thorn oeutinuo growing iu
sir.e as they have within the last few years
it will bo:etno a necessity. The Sixth
aud Eighth wards for instance Inve lu
thn neighborhood of ene thousand voters
living iu oaeh, and the polling of that large
vete besides beiug ten labarieus for ene
beard of ekoMen officers, often ttmes eis's
tbe c.tizans the prlvilege of voting by rea
son of the throng around the polls.
Iu reference te the iiolleo ferce I would
respcetfu'ly suggest that It is Impassible
te properly police the eity with the pre
etit small force. There nre but uine officers
ou duty nt euu timeaud they nre supposed
te be ou oeutiuu ins duty for twenty-four
hours. I bave no hesitation in styiug that
the duty rcquired of them is entirely tee
ouerous nnd they are uuabln te faithfully
perform all that is required of thorn, nnd
tbe citizens therefore de uet reoeive the
protection te which they are entitled.
I have but brirlly alluded te a few of the
lmpertaut matters which will be mero
particularly called te your honorable
bodies. I shall always be glad te co
operate with councils aud nssUt you iu
any way in my power.
I wish te publicly express my thanks te
Hen Jehn T. MaoGemglo, my predecessor
for bis courtesy nnd kindness shown me
while seeking information lu reference te
the duties of my effice.
At the conclusion of tlie rending of
the address thumiyer and ex-mayor re
tired.
Mr. Riddle made a motion that a vete
of thanks be exteuded te Hen. Jno. T.
MncG)ttlgle ler tbe efficient and faithful
manmr iu wh'ch he has fulfllled the
duties of his office. Thn motion was
unanimously adopted.
