FOR GOVERNOR IX IS72,

Washington C. De Pauw,

OF FLOYD OCXTT.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14,1871.

The Cincinnati & Tcrrc Han to Railroad— The JJiity of the Common Council, and the Petition of the Citizens.

The petition, signed by a large majority of the freeholders of this city, asking the Common Council to subscribe one hundred thousand dollars to the capital stock of the Cincinnati & Terre Haute Railroad Company, was presented to that body on Tuesday evening. The petition is based on the following specified conditions First, That this company propose to build a double track narrow gauge road from this city to Cincinnati, and that it shall pass over the rich mineral and agricultural districts of Clay and Owen counties. Second, That the company propose to build this road if this city will subscribe $100,000 to its capital stock. Third, Said company to commence the construction of this road within thirty days after the City Council shall have made the subscription as aforesaid, and within four months after such commencement the company to have its road completed ready for the cars to Eel river, in Clay county. Fourth, That the city is not to i.ssue lier bonds, or pay any of the $100,000 until twenty-five continuous miles of its road from this city is built, and a train of cars run over them.

The company, by L. A. Burnett, its agent and one of its directors also, at the same time, filed a written acceptance with the Common Council, accepting the conditions of the petition, and the subscription of stock to be made under it.

The question now arises, as to what is the power and duty of our City Council in the premises. The act of May 4,1S69, under which the petition to the Council is made, and which governs this case, Page 114 of Davis' Sup., Vol. 3, Indiana Statutes, is in the following words to-wit:

Suction 1. Beit, enacted by the General Assembly of the /Stale of Indiana, That any city, incorporated under the general law of this State, upon petition of a majority of the resident freeholders of such city, may hereafter subscribe to tlio stock of any railroad, hydraulic company, or water power, running into or through such city, or near the corporate limits of said city, or to make, on petition of the majority of tho resident freeholders of such city, donations in money or the bonds of such city, to aid in tho construction of any such railroad, hydraulic companies, or water 'power subject, however, to the limitations, direction and restriction named in tho provisos to tho sixtieth section of tho act untitled, "an act to repeal all general laws now in force for the incorporation of cities, prescribing their powers atul rights, and tho manner in which they shall exercise the same, and to regulate such other matters as properly pertain thereto,"- approved March 14, i8G7.

The provisos referred to above in section sixty as found on page 93, same volume, are as follows:

Provided, That said donations shall not be payable, either in money or bonds, until tho road in. aid of which it is given shall be so far completed as to admit-tlie running of trains from the point of commencement to such point or points as are designated in the petition, in tho caso of railroad, or passage of wagons, in tho ease of other roads, and when so far completed, it shall be obligatory on the Common Council of said city to contract and do whatever may be necessary to carry into eifect tho substantial meaning of such petitions, and the obligations herein enjoined may bo enforced in tho courts of this State having competent jurisdiction, on tho application of any signer of said petition, or President of tho road in behalf of which such donation may have boen made, at any time after said petition or petitions have' been presented to such Common Council, and for any debt in pursuance of tho provisions of this section in carrying out the intentions of the petitioners, aforesaid, the Common Council shall add to the tax duplicate of such years thereafter, a levy sufficient to pay tho annual interest on such debt or loan, with an addition of not less than live cents on the one hundred dollars, to create a sinking fund for the liquidation of the principal thereof, which fund, with all tho increase thereof, shall bo applied to the payment of such debt, and to tr other purpose.

By the above law it will be seen that subscriptions, as well as donations made by a city to aid in the construction of railroads, can only be made upon a pet ition of a majority of its resident freeholders, and the money or bonds of the city cannot be paid to said company, until the road in aid of which it is given, is so far completed, as to admit the running of trains over it from the point of commencement to such point as may be designated in the petition which in this case is twenty-live miles, commencing at

this city,

The law further" provides as is when the road

above written, that wiien the roaa is completed as above stated, "it shall be obligatory on the Common Council of said city to contract and do whatever may be necessary to carry into effect the substantial meaning of such petition, and the obligations therein enjoined may be enforced in the Courts of this State having competent jurisdiction on the application of atiy signer oj such petition or president of the road in behalf of which such donation may have been made at any time after said petition or petitions have been presented to such Common Council.

From, the above it will be seen that the Common Council have leally no discrecretion left, but to comply with the terms of the petition. Aud that is just as it should be. The Common Council are but the agents, or representatives of the people of the city, and when a majority of them have petitioned, under the law, that a certain thiug be done, their wishes should be strictly complied with, as expressed in their petition. It may be contended by some, that as the statute says the city "may" subscribe, etc., the word

may therefore leaves

with the Council to grant the prayer of the petition. But under the repeated decisions of the Supreme Court of this State, the word "may," as used in the above article, must bo construed as imperativeon the Council to comply with, the prayer of the petition, and not discretionary. In the 7th Indiana Reports, page 110, in the case of Witter vs. Taylor, the Supreme Court decided that where an affidavit for a change of venue is made in compliance with the statute, the court must grant the change, although the statute says "the court in term, or the judge in vacation 'may1 change the venue of any civil action, upon the application of either party made upon affidavit, showing onfc or more of the following causes etc." The Court says "the word may, as there used is clearly imperative, and not discretionaryIn the 7th Indiana Reports, page 123, our Supreme Court lays down the true rule upon this subject. It sajrs ''the cases in which the ord 'mr/y' imports 'shall,' are those in which public interests and rights are concerned, and where the public, or third persons have a claim

lde

jure} that the power

should be exercised." The case before our Council falls exactly within that rule. Here a large majority of the freeholders of this city petition the Council and they have the right under the statute to demand that their wishes shall be complied with, and the Council, under the above rulings of our Supreme Court, have no discretion left them, but must grant, the prayer of the petitioners. There are numerous decisions of our Supreme Court to the same effect as the above, but it is unnecessary to refer to more, as these fully establish the construction to be given to the word may as used in the above act, and show that it is imperative and not discretionary. But as the proviso to the act itself says that it shall be obligatory upon the Common Council to do whatever may be necessary to carry into effect the substantial meaning of the petition, there can be no room for a doubt left in this particular.

As the early completion of this narrow gauge railroad is of so much inportance to the people of this city, let us hope that our Common Council will at once give the assurance to said company that the city will comply with the terms of said petition, so soon as it shall build its road in compliance therewith. If that assurance is given, within thirty days, work will be commenced, and within four months we will have cars running as far as Eel river, which will give to our city a valuable trade we have lost, and add largely to the general prosperity of all our citizens.

We are aware that some of the Council are opposed to the petition, but that opposition should not for one moment control their action. The people whom they represent have spoken and said what they want whether it is right or wrong, or whether it agrees with the private views of any Councilman, should not be a question with him. If the people have asked for a thing, that in the end may prove injurious to them, that is their fault, and not the fault of the Council, and of course the people must sutler the consequences. In all matters affecting the city, except in case of aid to railroad companies, &c. the Common Council are left discre tionary to do as they may think best for the good of the city but in case of aid to railroads the Common Council have no power to give it, except upon petition of a majority of the resident freeholders, and when such a petition is presented there is not any discretion left to the Council, but they must grant its prayer. Such is the law of the land, and being the law, certainly it is not to the interest of any one to violate it, or attempt to thwart the will of the people.

It is now stated on the authority of Hon. Robert B. Roosevelt, Democratic member of Congress from the Fourth District of New York City, that the debt of that city is not less than $200,000,000. The assessed value of the real estate of the city and county of New York for the year 1871, is $709,302,250, and that of personal property is $306,947,223, the total being $1,070,249,473. The debt of the city is, therefore, more than 1S.V per cent, of the assessed valuation of its property, and 26 per cent, of the assessed valuation of the real estate which is the only part that can be counted on to pay the debt. Of this enormous burden, more than $103,000,000 or over four-fifths have been added since Jan. 1, 1S69, under the administration of the ring.

This is taxation with a vengeance, and corruption in the most approved New York style. Still this is in keeping with what is going on in the whole country. The moment the President of the United States so far forgot the dignity of the position he occupied as to take everything offered him, and then give office as a consideration therefor, he corrupted officials everywhere. The demoralization consequent on these unprecedented acts of Gen. Grant, has become wide-spread, and pervades the whole country, and if we are to have four years of a continuance of them, God help the taxpayer.

Tun telegraph reports on two defalcations of office-holders this morning. One a paymaster in the army, for $500,000, and the other in the Postoftice Department at New York for $115,000. Both had been engaged in stock gambling in New York, and both lost.

This ain't much, only perhaps three quarters of a million of the people's money. They can stand that—they are getting used to it.

SlNCE*the collapse of the oil speculations which set the country wild about oil lands and flowing wells a few years ago, comparatively little has been said about petroleum, and few people have any adequate idea of the important rank that the fluid holds among the productions of this country. From the report of the Bureau of statistics it appears that last year petroleuai was the fourth article of export from the United States, and exceeded only by breads'tuffis, cotton and corn. The totaf value of the petroleum exported amounted to nearly thirty-six millions of dollars.

A CORRESPONDENT informs us that the Hou. Charles SumnSr has recently said that «en. Grant is mentally and morally far inferior to all the former Presidents of tli© Uuiteu States, uud that even Andv Johnson towers above him in the qualifications of the mind and heart. We publish this statement, not merely on the authority of our correspondent, but because the saying is true, whether Mr.

One is most unwilling to believe it, yet the logic of facts proves that malice toward all their fellow-ci'eatures is an essential part of the constitution of many people. All the particles of matter, we know, exert on each other a mutual repulsion. Is it so with the atoms that makes up human society? Many people dislike a man just because they know nothing about him and when they come to know something about him they are sure to dislike him even more. In a simple state of society, if you disliked a man, you would knock him on the head. If an Irishman, you would shoot him from behind a hedge. The modern civilized means of wreaking your wrath on the man you dislike is different. You repeat tattle to his prejudice you tell lies ^bout him. This is the weapon of warfare in Christian countries.

Recently a nondescript concern, manipulated by a couple of Chicago Wholesale Merchants, came into Terre Haute to make money out of the UNPAID FOR STOCK of A. Johnson A Co. We soon found out that these men were running a regular "Peter Funk*' establishment, and that they refused to sell anything that did not bring a big profit. We were shown many goods bought of them for which the buyer had paid nearly double our retail prices, and in no case that came under our observation had the goods been bought as low as we would have sold them. We therefore proposed to drive these illegitimate dealers in UNPAID-FOR GOODS out of town, EVEN IF IT TOOK A LOSS ON OUR PART OF FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO DO IT. To this end we immediately closed up our store for one day and marked down our entire stock, in many cases to FIFTY CENTS ON A DOLLAR, thus virtually selling
