Particularly Wralhy anil Saja It Wilt Tarn Its On Unadrrd and Hlghtaaa Tole. tn Belter Aciiml N.it Year. The reorganization of tho Borough Council is tho nil-Important tonic. In some places ltisn subject which causes expressions of hitter indignation, while In othors there is much jubilation. It is qultecertnln that tho work of the eight Democratic members on Monday night is not by any means satisfactory to tho wholo party ami if a small part of tho threats now niadoaro fulfilled next spring it will not bo difficult to elect a local Ho- publlcnn ticket. The hottest set of people aro tho mem bers of tho National club, which is coin. posed of a large number ot tho most In fluential and active young Democrats. As the story goes, and It comes from tho members themselves, tho club worked plant and dnv for tho support of the bor ough Democratic ticket at tho last elec tion with the Implied understanding time one of its members, .Jolin Jennings, a young man well qnulltied as to both char acter and nbllity, would be nppointed on the police force, in carrying out Its part of tke, bargain the club claims credit for one hundred and eighteen votes. This number of votes is nulte an Item when tho majority is but from 17 to 50, and the club unite naturally feels that It really elected tho ticket. It is not surpris ing that its members aro angered to llnd themselves dumped Into the soup lu splto of Its Influence. Quito a sensation was caused yesterday by tho btatement that tho new member of tho police force is not a citizen and cannot rend or write. It was stated that he had resided in this country but three years and six months. The report had been changed somewhat since, however, as it has boon discovered that the man secured his citizen's papers a few days before ho was appointed on the force. Tho question about his ability to road and write is still opon and it has been said that if this part of the report is true Council will be called upon to take some notion. Somo surprise has been expressed over tho failure of the Democratic eight to stnnd by AI. At. llurke, Esq., for the Boniugh Solicitorship. There is no doubt that ho was on the original slate, but two old members of Council who have been actively identified with tho public water works project during the past year made n hard light against him and eventually broueht tho rest of the Democratic eight over to thoir way of thinking. One of these said last night. "Wo had no objec tion, personally, to Mr. Hume. Mr. Pomerov has had charge of tho legal matters attending tho public waterworks since tho start ami there is no doubt that he has civen trreat satisfaction to both tho Council and tho people. For that reason wo concluded not to allow political partisanship to lnllueuco us in tiio selec tion of a Borough Solicitor and retained Afr. Pomerov." It is hardlv necessary to sav that the (ierman Democrats feel that they lire literally out or signt. uut or rourreeu nnnointments thev didn't get a smell.
