A PUBLIC
UMCTIXd XICS-SAHT.
A citizens metiii should be
t ailed to discuss the amending of
the. city charter at the approach
session of the legislature. The
people ought to know what sort of
an act is to Ite passed, and should
at least act in conjunction with
the tily council in proposing it.
TWa question ought to be dis
cussed and pome definite plan out
lined. The only satisfactory way
to do this is by a public meeting
of citizens. It would be in place
for the city council to a i such
a meeting at the aij urned
meeting of the council to
morrow evening, as the time is
shott and action to W effective
iniiat lie prompt. Citizens gener
ally demand that in amending tht
city charter, enlarging the poweis
uf the council, the people should
have a voice, and as all are work
ing to a common end the advance
ment and progrtes of the city,
there should be a unanimity ol
action, and the demands of the
fieople should not he disregarded.
Let a public meeting )w called at
an early day to discuss this ques
tion uf amending the charter, in
order to arrive a satisfactory and
harmonious solution of the problem.
voice and menacing gesture,
denounces the measure as the most
tyrannical and the least 'patroitie
on record. Every harangue is
made to empty benches. Two or
three democratic colleagues are
napping in their chairs and as
many republican opponents are
writing letters, reading newpapers
or chatting together. Nobody on
the floor listens on either side.
The speeches may be read the
next morning in "The Record,"
but not the alightsat attention is
paid to them when delivered.

Tue cry has been raised and
reiterated that the terrible McKin
Iry bill would cause all foreign
nations to loycoti the World's
Fair, but those assertions are like
all Mie others that have been made
for partisaii purpose only, and
areeiactly the reverse of the truth.
Tue Cl ronicle learns that the
tiguB are multiplying that the
foreigner will take as great an In
terest in our World's Fair as he
has taken in any other similai
exhibition. We are certain of
U.tving a line Chinese and Japan
rye exhibit, for extensive prepara
. tious are being made in both oi
i 'lose countries to eclipseanythin
tl.ey have previously done in the
way of showing the outside bar
barian what their artistic and in
dustrial capabilities are. Now we
aie infosuied by East Indian
pipers that great interest is being
manifested in that vuot country,
aud that the possibility of still fur
ther extending their trade with
America through the agency of the
Ciiicago fair is being discussed.
Much of Fast Indian art ware
bought in this country coiuesto nt
Iioiu 1'arisaud London, compara
tively little beiug shipped direct
to the United States. It is the
inipress.oii ol many, ol the
Fast Indian dealeis that if a direct
trade were established with the
I'nited Matey, a-i it may lte I t
hawing the attention of A met icun
hnye
in ti.e !hape of Inxurie, tni
i-ountiy, with its great wealth,
miijlit become tlieir best uustouier.
I lie aiue ideas which intliience
liiese men in the remote Orient
will operate as powerfully in l lie
I viiU hi. The enormous and
rapidy increasing wealth of the
I'niicd Sratts ii potveiful n
magnet to be iVi.-ted by any eo-r-le
having pR-da tor sale. In
bi'ite of our taritl they know that
f ir some years to cine the I'nited
'ta'e must remain a consumer oi
foreign g'jods, and lliat her prople
wil: always be able to buy mute
luxuries ttian any other people on
tii;glole.
Somk of the Eastern papers still
cherish the idea that Indiaim can
be placated, and purchased into
reasonably good behavior. That
treaties and agreements with them
is worth something in the political
economy of the nation. Thus the
St Louis Globe-Democrat 1 as been
trying statistically to prove that it
would have been cheaper to have
treated and purchased them than
to have expended so much in mili
tary operations against them. The
close observer of the conduct of
Indian affairs, especially in
matters pertaining to indian tribes
west of the Kooky mountains, and
immediately east of them, has ;
long since come to the conclusion
that the treaty and buying up ,
business has been one of enormous i
expense Loth in blood and money. '
The only effective argument with !
them seems to have been the '
bullet and tire bayonet strait.
