The municipal election in Indianapolis last Tuesday was a landslide. Thos. Taggart, the democratic candidate for

defense Mr. James made some discoveries not complimentary to the city government’s business methods. The ordinance placing it in the power of the council to build a wall about the town was published, as the proof on tile shows, before the adoption of the ordinance. A second ordinance on the subject has been enacted repealing the first anil altogether the matter is in such a muddle that it would be very difficult for the citys legal guide to tell where he is at.

The news from Indianapolis had not been satisfactory and as the minutes wore on the faces of the Mayor, Marshal, City Clerk. City attorney ami live of the lawmakers elongated fearfully. The face of theother councilman, however, was Illuminated with smile* and his face expanded like the cheeks of a flat head Indian. Some consolation was derived troni a long and strong pull on the public crib as follows. CLAIM ORDINANCES. J. M. Ponnohue’ police S 25 00
