coed to investigate the political loyalty OF
Mayor Wickham2


The precedent established by Mr.. Justice
Donohue, in deciding that bill of particulars
must be furnished in the Tweed case, has not
been without It's effect in other quarters. As
our readers will understand, the value of this
precedent is that when public officers plumber
the treasury they have only to steal the
forged vouchers or any documents in the
archives that will establish their guilt to be
free from prosecution. We learn from Albany
that important records thro wing light upon
the canal question have been abstracted from
the office of division engineer. 1t is believed
that the abstraction of these documents will
defeat any investigation of the canal system
Of New York. If it should be found neoes-
sary at any time to bring suit against those
members of the Canal Ring who are supposed
to be guilty of frauds the absence OF these
records will enable them to escape with as
much impunity as Tweed himself.
Every year adds something to our knowi-
edge of the practical operations of the law. 1t
is great deal to know that if one steals
ham under certain circumstances he may be
sent to prison for twenty years; but if he
steals five million dollars he has only to pay
half million to lawyers, leeches and black
mailers to remain in undsturbed possession
of the balance of his spoils. If there should
by any means be probability of justice
working its will upon him all possible trouble
can be removed by repeating the robbery
forcibly entering the archives of the govern
ment and destroying the public records
which might lead jury to pass an ugly
opinion upon the crime.

On tho Wrong Scent.

Tammany Hall and its renowned leader
have evidently got on the wrong scent and
committed grievous blunder in their
attempts to purify and harmonize the organ
ization. That powerful statesman, John
Morrissey, and his harmless henchmen have
been practically kicked out of Tammany for
the offence OF having denounced the reduc-
ton OF the city laborers wages and sympa-
thized with those who hold Tammany Hall
and John Kelly responsible for that policy
Their course is declared to have been unjust
and revolutionary, inasmuch as it is claimed
that Tammany Hall and its renowned leader
have In fact ''clearly and forcibly placed
themselves on record as opposed to the recent
reduction OF wages in this city, and have
thoroughly and fully condemned" such re-
duction.
If this be the case it is manifest that Will
lam Fl. Wickham, and not John Morrissey, is
the mischievous and refractory member of
Tammany Hall Mr.. Morrissey is a plain,
blunt man, not educated as lawyer-acute
in the worldly sense, but not q pro-
found thinker or close reasoner. He may
be excused for believing that Tammany Hall
is responsible for the deduction of forty cents
day from the laborers' pay, because he
argues that Tammany Hall is John Kelly );
that John Kelly is Mayor Wickham that, as
Wickham reduced the price of labor, the re-
duction must have been known to and ia
vored by John Kelly, and, ergo, by Tammany
Hall. Indeed, the present proceedings against
Morrissey prove that John Kelly is Tammany
Hall, and as Kelly publicly claimed Mayor
Wickham rs ''my candidate it seems only
fair to conclude that he is responsible for the
Mayors action. But if the assertion of the
committee that disciplined Morrissey be
true, and if Kelly and his organization have
in reality thoroughly and fully condemned
the reduction of laborers' wages and "clearly
and forcibly" placed themselves on record
against it, then William III. Wickhams brief
career in Tammany Hall ought to be ter
minated, and on him, instead OF on
Morrissey, the brand of the political
pariah should be set. His appointees in
the departments cannot we'll be reached since
none of them belong to Tammany Hall. lie
must, therefore, bear the punishment alone
AS the nominee and representative of
Tammany, and as its leaders, ''my candi-
date, a" he has initiated policy in the city
government in direct opposition to Tammany' 5
interests and wishes and in defiance of its
Thorough and full condemnation" II he
took such an important step without con-
sulting Kelly and Tammany he was guilty Of
INSTRUMENTATION and that very Setting up fer
himself of which Morrissey is accused. If
be reduced the laborers' wages in defiance of
the ''clearly and forcibly recorded opposition"
of Tammany and lis renowned leader he is q
more incorrigible rebel than the OBrien him
self. VIII the Committee on Discipline take
these SUGGESTIONS into consideration aud Dro-

PIimsOil's Victory.

In attempting to extinguish the humanita-
rian Plimsoll Mr.. Disraeli made quite mis-
take, as he has found out by this time. The
case of poor sailors sent out to sea by
gambling scoundrels, who hope they may
never come back touched a chord of sympathy
in the British heart that throbbed to the very
parliamentary eloquence of Mr.. Plimsoll.
1t was not quite polite of the humanitarian to
shake his fist at the Premier of England and
hint that he was in league with certain
scoundrels inside and outside the House of
Parliament who made a trade of sending
rotten ships to sea In order that they
might be lost and these same scoundres
But, unfortunately, these charges are
VIGOROUSLY true, and somehow Jack
Tars have always been favorites in the
eight little island, and the people will not
see them cheated out of their lives if they can
help it. Therefore, when Mr.. Disraeli turned
the good-hearted Plimsoll out Of doors be-
cause he objected to bill being cast aside
that affected the lives of thousands of Jack
Tars and Plimsoll shook his fist at the gov
eminent benches, all England-all that Eng
land, at least, that loves honesty of purpose
and fair play and Jack Tars-shook its fist
also at the government benches, and Mr.. Dis
raeli finds he has made mistake. So the
government has resolved to back down, and
some law will be passed to prevent ''scoun-
drels inside and outside of Parliament trad
ing in the lives of the honest sailors, and this
result is chiefly due to the unparliamentary
shaking of good-natured Mr.. Plimsolls fist

prevent any material DETECTION at the point
If the load. There seems TO be no doubt
of the safety of the road, and the estimated
cost is not SO high as the elaborate character
of the structure would suggest The Meyers
and Widmayer project il new and Is well
received by the Commission. This also con-
templates wide span of two hundred and
sixty feet, extending from block to block,
the supports being wrought iron columns,
curved outward and strengthened by curved
ribs and tension rods. The structure is light
and tasteful, but whether it possesses the
requisite strength is a question for experts to
determine This plan offers but little OBJ
struction to surface travel, one set Of the sup
porting columns being placed between the
two horse railroad tracks and the other set
on the outer side of one of the tracks. Thus
one track of the horse cars would run under
the elevated road and the other track on the
outside of its columns. The Ehler arcade
scheme is an ingenious one, but is open to
criticism. 1t sandwiches a railroad between
the covered sidewalk and the upper stories of
the buildings, making the road, in fact, oc-
cupy the position of the first story front
rooms Such projects generally look better
on paper than elsewhere. Nevertheless, the
proposition will be entitled to and will no
doubt receive proper consideration. The
Morris depressed project proposes a rapid
transit road that would be partially sunk in
the centre of the avenues and streets through
which it would pass, leaving an open cut,
walled up, and with bridges over the cross
streets. This idea has been popular with
great many people. The Fourth avenue tun-
mel, and, more recently, the Harlem Railroad
cut along Fourth avenue, are regarded by
some as offering the true solution of the rapid
transit question, as pointing out to us how
we may build road, neither underground
nor elevated, which will be unquestionably
safe, and will leave the streets and avenues
without Disagreement and encroached on
only to the extent of the width of the rapid
transit tracks. One important, if valid, claim
made by the protector of the trench road
for SC it may be called-is that trains could
be run on it at a much higher rate of speed
than could be safely used on any elevated
road. 1t Is also claimed that the maintenance
of o road on an earth bed would cost less
than on an elevated structure. These and
other points are for the consideration and
decision of experts. The plan is worthy Of
mature consideration. The Evans plan COM
bines arched bridges and cables spanning
from block to block. The object of the Com
mission will, of course, be to decide upon a
plan of construction that will command the
confidence of capital With such plan, and
the most populous route in the city selected
as the rapid transit line, we shall not fail to
secure the great improvement of which the
city is in such need.

Homa RuIn in JnDAn.

The voice Of the home ruler is heard not
only in the nnteroom of Mayor Wickham
and in the streets of New Orleans, but even
in far away Japan. In the beginning of this
present year, while the New York short hairs
were growing at Fitz John Porter; while the
Alabama democrats were digging out Senator
Spencer; while Packard, in Louisiana, was
making his last secret effort against the
Wheeler adjustment; while the President
was sticking Brooks and other carpet-baggers
into federal offices in Arkansas; while the
carpet-bagger was setting up his final howl of
despair the Meiroku Society held a meeting
in Jeddo for political discussion, in the
course of which, according to report before
us, Mr. Mort remarked that, in his opinion.
the talk about the liberties of Japan was all
fudge "The power of the people has become
so weak that it has almost disappeared" said
Mr.. Mori, and added the following to illus
trate his meaning:-
man from Satsuma becomes the Governor OF
Kaga and a man from Choshiu becomes the Gov
ernor OF Oshlu. But these men, not being natives
of the provinces they were appointed TO govern,
take no sufficient pains to acqualnt themselves
with the state OF a1alrs OF the provinces they are
thus sent to govern. Judge, therefore, that the
power OF the people to-day Is weaker than 1t was
during the time Of the daimios, and In proof or &c
! adduce this fact, that the people OF province
cannot choose their Governor from among the
natives OF that province, but rest contenteGly
under the rule OF man who comes from another
province. This seems TO me ike person living
In a house submitting to have his Housekeeping
affairs controlled by his neighDor. Surely this
cannot be called independence l am man OF
Satsuma and | would not permit a man OF any
other province to rule over me. l would take him
down and have q man of Satsuma put IN his place
The government OF u province can only be accom-
pshed with success by a native OF that province.

CHEATING AT THE POLLS AND IN THE jury
Box.-Two of the meanest of crimes are be-
coming common in this country because of
the light punishments inflicted on their per-
petrators or the neglect to impose any punish
ment. These arc cheating at the polls and
the corruption of juries. The first is a crime
against the sovereignty of the people and is
morally equivalent to treason. The second
makes o mockery of justice. Instead ofdm-
prisonment for two or three months man
convicted of fraudulently changing cleo
ton returns deserves Imprisonment for ten
years, and those politicians who "count out
majority and put the minority in power
ought to be locked up for life. But the pun
ishment of such offences is so utterly dispro-
portionate that counting out is considered
virtue by professional politicians. Men
who elk juries are not less contemplate.
The case of plaintiff in suit in the Marine
Court, who is charged with attempting to
bride jury, came up yesterday for investiga-
ton, and, if tho testimony given is true, the
Court he has outraged and insulted should
make him an example.
