TIKI PAID FIRE DEPARTMENT.

The argument Oh the Paid Fire Department
before the Court of Appeals turned naturally
on legal questions of no particular interest To
the public, nor are the grounds of the decision
vet known to us. But the decision itself is OF
immense importance TO the city, and to every
owner Of property in il. II is decision i'll favor
OF security to every dollars worth of consum-
able property in NewYork-not to speak Of III.

more to-day than yesterday. More important
still it is decision in favor of good order and
good morals, both which have been too fire.
auently outraged by the Fire Department as it
has Of late years existed.
What has been called the Volunteer Fire
Department is very different organization
from that which formerly made the name al
honorable one and gave local popularity to
the system. The department has been invaded,
and TO great extent taken possession of for
political and other purposes, by representatives
of the worst classes in the city. That it has
been a powerful political engine New-York
knows to its cost. That it has admitted
members whole companies as we'll as
ndividuals-whO were positive nuisance
and danger rather than iafeguard
at any fire, is equally well known.
That the facilities which it afforded for the legal
organization of violent and reckless men were
dangerous to the public peace has oten been
evident and SO lately as day before yesterday
at Flushing l.. l., was again demonstrated by
a Firemen's Riot of gigantic proportions and
disastrous consequences. We have lad, also,
the direct testimony Of the Presidelt Of the
Police Commissioners that the Firemel of New
York instigated and shared in the Juy riots of
1868 Mr.. Acton is not the man TO mike such
an assertion without evidence, and hB position
is such that il any man knows the facts he must,
so that we are bound to presume hehad good
reason for a charge which in itself would be n
cause for abolishing an organization capable Of
such mischief.
But aside from and beyond all this, the expe.
rience of other cities proves that Pad Depart.
ment under control of officers not elected by
its members is immeasurably superior to Vol.
unteer Department which appoints it, own Off.
GERS and which from that circumstance alone
can never be properly disciplined. The Insur-
ance Companies of this city, whichhave the
most direct practical interest in the question
were unanimous, or nearly so, in favor
of the paid system and thar judg.
ment was based on the working
of similar system in Baltimore, in Boston, in
Cincinnati, and other cities in America, as well
as Of the much less extensive yet efectual or
ganization Of the Fire Brigade in London. And
as the greater part of the opposition to the 70.
construction of the Department has come from
those who had either personal or political
interest in its P0rpetuatiOn, the public bus seea

Death or Mrs. Seward.

The death at Washington yesterday Of Mrs
FRANCES SEWARD, wife Of the Hon. William IL.
Seward, will be widely and sincerely mourned as
more than family bereavement. Mrs. Seward,
born Frances Miller, daughter of Judge Elijah
Miller, one of the honored pioneers OF central
New-York had attained the age of sixty years,
and had filled for thirty years an exalted position
without once exciting an enmity or alternating q
friend, and without ever meeting one who had
either the power or the wish to speak i'll of her.
Intellectually gifted and cultivated far beyond the
average not merely Of her sex but Of her time she
gave much heed and thought to public affairs with
out neglecting or sighting any of the duties of a
beloved, exemplary wife and mother; and every
pulsaton of her heart beat strongly for Justice,
Humanity, and Freedom to All. An invalid and
sufferer for several years past, she had necessarily
withdrawn in great measure from society solaced
by the admring love Of devoted family and walk
ing cheerfully heavenward in the light Of an I'M
shadowed Christian faith She has remained for
the most part at home during the last four years,
but hastoned to Washington on the first tidings of
tho murderous assault on her husband and son, and
the overtaxing Of her impaired physical strength
by that trying journey probably shortened her
earthly career. All her children three sons and
daughter) survive her. Her mortal remains will
doubtless rest in the cemetery of Auburn, the city
of her birth, which, though not always her resi-
dence, was always her home.

TRIBUNE:

at appeals to the people Of the South to give the
suffrage TO all the negroes but with what KIND OF grace
dosa this come from journal published In New-f0rk
State that does not permit any negro to vote who
does not own property Is 1t reasonable OF even de-
cent to require the South 10 go further IN TINS than
New. York goes? We have indicated the classes OF
negroes that may perhaps receive the suffrage but II
viii require time for them to get it, and they must get
it in constitutional way. How ridiculous IT 49, then
TO rave on such subect-to require Southern men to
give more than Northern men do and to attempt 10
force the question ahead without any constitutional
lines or limits =
Answer.-THE TRIBUNE has at all times, but
especially in 1916 and 1859, when special efforts
were made to redress this wrong, opposed the
inequality and injustice foisted into our State
Constitution by Democratic politicians in 1921,
and maintained by them to this day. The Herald,
on the other hand has steadfastly sustained the
wrong and vehemently resisted every effort to
redress it, Negro Acknowledgement in our State
is Democratic Offering to the Slave Power-a
Democratic bid for Southern presidential votes
and dry-goods bait for Southern patronage and
custom. Now that Slavery ia dead, there is not
an excuse for its continuance, and We joyfully
trust its end is near
But. if New.Yorks example is conclusive,
let the South go soJar as "New.York goes -
by enfranchising every negro who owns, wheE
he offers to VOTE $3.50 worth of real estate. If
she would do even so much as that-thOugh this
would hardly enfranchiSe Immediately one
