THE CASE OF DR.. HOWARD
TOBACCO TAX QUESTION
Foreign News
FROM WASHINGTON.

Washington, April s.--A dispatch was
recently sent from this city stating that
Senator Trumbull had declared that he
would not be candidate before the Cincin-
natl Convention, and that he believed that
Judge Davis would be the strongest candi-
date that could be named.
Lieutenant Governor Koernor, of llli-
nois, seeing this dispatch, wrote to the Sem
ator asking whether it was by authority |;
to which Senator Trumbull replied to-day
in dispatch saying: ''.Ihere is no founda-
ton for the dispatch to which you REFER"

OUR STREET CARs.-Our street rail-
way cars have become literally ons-horse
concerns. That is to say, some Of the cars
are drawn by one horse, except up the
heavy grades, where additional power is
used as usual; and we believe it has been
decided by the President to change all the
cars on the line to one horse cars. This
might not be a bad idea if lighter cars were
used, but it seems to us that one of the
present vehicles, without the additional
weight of a single passenger, is quite as
much as one horse can draw, if any regard
is to be paid to the welfare of the horse.
Whatever may be the result of this experi-
ment, however, the public have reason
to hope for more efficient street car
service. Mr.. Crenshaw exhibits an
appreciation of the public requirements, as
well as a disposition to meet them; and
we have faith to believe that he is suffi-
GENTLY enterprising and progressive in his
ideas to render the road more serviceable
to our citizens than it has heretofore been.
This desirable result may be reached, it
may be, through tedious and costly exper;-
ments, but will be all the more valuable
and satisfactory on that account when it is
obtained.
