A Cure for Western Unions Woes.

Why are we always hearing Of new tele-
graph projects; of opposition to the Western
Union Company; of government tele-
graph; of new lines and new companies, as
that one which has just now been formed in
California, and which has some hackers, by
the way, whom neither Jay Gould nor Mr..
Orion, nor both combined, can Brighten?
Is it not because the present companies do
not serve the public as well and as cheaply
as the public ought to be served, and as it
feels and capitalists feel it might be served
Year after year the Western Union Com
pany has bought mp rivals and swallowed up
other and newer enterprises. 1t now possesses
an enormous capital, heavily watered, accord
ing to all accounts, and paying a handsome
dividend on its stock, water and all 1t is so
large and important a concern that even
Commodore Vanderbilt has for some time
thought it worth his attention, and has by
his efforts added to the efficiency Of the line,
while of late we hear of another great opera
tor who is itching for its control. West
orn Union is in fact, one Of the
speculative stocks; and like all enterprises
which arrive at that stage it is bcset on every
hand with eager men anxious in some way to
get share in its profits, either by control
ling or helping to manipulate it, or by threat
ening il with the interference of new lines,
or by persuading the government to set up a
postal telegraph. Now all this must cause a
good deal of trouble and expense to the
managers of the Western Union Company.
To keep off the government they have to go
to Washington in the winter and give costly
dinners to influential men. To keep the field
to themselves they must waste money in
buying rival lines, and often matchmaking
lines, no doubt. In this and many other

people !?

We return, with pain, to the word "blab-
bing," as applied by the World to Mr. Nor
rissey. The more we think of it the less we
like it. "Blabbing' is, according to Web
ster 'telling indiscrectly what ought to be
concealed" Another definition, simpler,
but still worse, is 'tattling." A "blab" is
zone who betrays secrets" 'babbler," a
'fell-tale." To "blab' is to talk thought
lessly or without discretion"
Do these definitions fit Mr.. Morrissey? Is
he really 'tell-tale?" Has he been 'tat-
tling?" is he "babbler" Milton speaks
of one who was avoided as a blab;" does
any one perceive that Mr. Morrissey is in
this category? Byron asks, ''for who will
open himself to blab or babbler| But
II great many judicious public men have of
late opened themselves to Mr.. Morrissey.
Spenser speaks of one ''that cannot hold his
peace and blabbing tongue Is this appli-
cable to the great Ajax of the democratic
leaders at Saratoga?
We should be sorry to think so. We are
persuaded that Morrissey like Noodle in
Martin Chuzzlewit, has his mission, and in
spite of his detractors we doubt if it is TO

malice and disappointment. That General
Smith should make n war upon his colleagues
merely because they failed to make him
President of the Board of Police is a story too
absurd TO be readily accepted as true. His ac-
cusations are too direct and too much to the
purpose TO have sprung from any such mo-
tive. the venerable Matsell to the contrary
notwithstanding. The Commissioners cam
not deny the disorganization of the
police. and for this they must be held
responsible. We have endured the evil
of corrupt police captains and bru-
tai subordinates too long already, and
the only practical measure of reform is by
the reorganization of the Board of Police
Commissioners.
1t is time we gathered some of the real
fruits of reform. The republicans and the adj
herents of the Committee of Seventy looked to
Mayor Havemeyer for the beginning of the
new epoch. Matsell, Voorhis and Disbecker
in the Police Board are a singular common
tary upon that expectation. BY some strange
fatality all his appointments turned to Dead
Sea fruit After Mayor Wickham succeeded to
the Office Governor Tilden seemed to stand
in the way of even necessary changes. The
Mayors charges against the Corporation
Counsel and the Fire Commissioners re-
manned Enacted upon for months, and it was
only yesterday that Mr.. E. Delafeld Smith
was removed. At last, however, the work of
sham reform seems ended and there
is at least a beginning of very important
work. We hope it is only be-
ginning The charges against the Fire
Commissioners are next in order, and when
these are disposed of the accusations Of Gen
eral Smith against the Police Commissioners
should be ready for action. Mayor Wickman
must act in this matter at once and bring this
important question to the attention of the
Governor without delay. We can see no rea-
son why Matsell, Voorhis and Disbecker
should be in Office twenty-four hours after
the Mayor communicates the story of their
incompetency to the Governor, and we look
measures. If the police force of this city is
to be reformed at all it can only be by the
reorganization of the Board of Police Com
missioners and the appointment of capable
and intelligent men in the place of the pres
ent incapable and inefficient officials. This
is what is demanded by the people of New
York, and this is what we have a right to
expect from Mayor Wickham and Governor

Senator Morton in Ohio.

The increasing popular disgust with the
imitation platform of the laundering demo-
Gratis in Ohio was shown on Saturday, when
Senator Morton, a well known republican in
fationist appeared in Ohio as the unex-
pected opponent of initiation. Mr.. Morton
has quick eye for the set of public opinion,
and his speech in Ohio may be taken as good
evidence that the tide is setting against the
swindling policy which Allen and Carey
have so shamelessly advocated before the
people of Ohio, and which the republican
Kelley came over to that State to speak for
also. 1t was natural for Mr. Morton to hoist the
''bloody shirt whenever he spoke. That is
what whist players would call his strong
suit" 1t was said of his longest speech in
the Senate last winter that it was only a con-
tinuous shout of murder murder muir
derv He does not like the democratic
party; for which we do not blame him. for it
is a matter of TASTE and he has good many
people with him in the dislike. But it is
surprising that so shrewd a politician as he
is does not see that the "bloody shirt" is no
longer an effective exhibition. Since Poker
Jack went back in security TO live under the
peaceful democratic rule in Arkansas the
garment which he first hoisted has fallen
into disrepute. Does Senator Morton really
still believe that the Force bill and the
Arkansas message were necessary or justi-
fable measures? Or does he imagine that
the peoples fears can any longer be played
with as they have been?
The next Presidential campaign cannot be
fought on that line. 1t is time to reason to-
gether, and the people are not going to be
driven into the republican party next year
by the exhibition Of the rebel spectre. If
the republicans mean to win they will have
to show craftsmanship they must produce a
peace policy The war is over.

The Mountain Meadows Massacre.

The trial of the Mormon Bishop, Lee, ac-
cused of being one of the chief instigators of
that act of wholesale assassination known as
the Mountain Meadows Massacre, has at
tracted the attention of the whole country.
All the circumstances of the trial have been
strange. The jury Vas composed largely of
Mormons, and contained-so the telegraph
reported several men who were relatives of
the accused. The defendant endeavored to
throw the blame of the murders upon the
Indians but chief asserts that Lee bribed
the Indians to help in the killing by the
promise of clothing guns and horses,
and that the Indians had no per-
sonal hostility against the emigrants.
Some of the Mormon witnesses swore that
they had lived near the Mountain Meadows
great many years and had never heard
about the massacre An effort was made to
show that Brigham Young was not connected
with the atrocity, but it is not known here
whether he has been able to clear his skirts
entirely. OF the atrocity of the massacre there
is no doubt. Many of its details have been
known for years, nor has it ever been at
tempted to charge it upon the Indians unin-
stigated by white men. How far this trial
and others which may follow it may fix the
guilt upon the Mormon leaders at Salt Lake
remains to be seen. The disagreement of
the jury in the Lee case was expected, and
settles nothing, except that it will be difficult
to get justice done upon the actual muir
derers.

time he has written to Mr.. Green ac-

he bore witness to the truth.
