DLSRESPECT TO TIE BENCM

AZ first sight there is something grotcsqnc
in the appearance of the counsel oi "l'iia'n
NJ. Tweed rebuking Mr.. Charles OConor Tor
the crime of attempting to shake the popular
trust in the purity and incoruptibliiy OF the
iudgcs. Judge Comstock is not responsible,
however for tho bad character of his client,
and although it j. true that Tweed is the
greatest rohber of the age, and has been
one of The most insplcnt corrupterS OF the
judiciary, he is nevertheless, entitled to the
protection of the laws equally with every
honest citizen, and it. is of the utmost I'M
portanco to the entire community that he
should only he punished in n strictly legal
way. The communication from Judge C0mstock
therefore, which We print Tbs morning de-
serves an attentive reading. and affords ample
food for reflection. A. an old member of the
Court winch Mr.. O'COnor ha~ lIriienod, and
nudge of unspOtted record, not less than as the
counsel of Tweed, what t,iis able lawyer has
to say deserves respectful consideration.
II seems to us that in hi- severe ccn-'ne OF

the grcaics! freedom. The idea that to qne'-
ton the soundncs- Of Il iudgc's law. or even
to look into his moiyv-. constitutes a con-
TEMPT of court, is entirely foreign 10 the
! spirit of American Institutions. II viii never
hr accepted in this country, and II never o"ght
10 prevail in any free land. Mr. Cows!oct
himself While apparently processing II Oh one
side Of his mouth, fOuts it with the other; i"r
he treats judge Davis with even worse disre-
epect than lac accuses Mr.. OCon0r OF showing
| 10 tbe Court OF Appeals. Mr.. OConor limited

tribunal were suspicious Judge Comstoch goes
| further, and asserts that the Court OF Oyei ana
Termincr, in prcnouncing "an unprecedented

are disposed to buy oil paintings for the cost
of the canvas and the oil. Tho public has
been trained to forget this and tc expect
lower prices than could he safely given. Re-
tail prices have in some cases been made
higher than was necessary to cover abnormal
discounts, and this has only increased the de-
moraizaton.
A wel-stocked bookstore is desirable In every
town. 1t cannot he sustained without rea-
sonablc margin of profit. 1t is, therefore, well
for the public to pay this profit. If the book
trade of the country, by fair means, can regain
n living profit, it is well that it should DO So
If it can give the public its books at an non
est price to all alike, and possibly replace the
unwholcsomc discount system by some liiti-
mate reduction in the general retail price, so
much the better. The movement which has
produced tho American Book Trade AssocIa-
ton and organized the Book Fair seems to
have the double purpose OF promoting sound
business principles and inspiring the trade
with real sense of the importance ot It's
work. SO long as it holds wisely to these
aim, it deserves the public support.

THE cry TINES.

The Board of Supcrv visors have finally settled
on ~ 81 per 800 as the rate of taxation Tor
the current year. The rate was ~ eo IN
1874. 50 50 IN 1873, aud ~ 90 in 1872. 1t
thus appears that the rate for 1875 is higher
than if was in either of the three preceding
years.
The amounts of the taxes levied on property
In each Of the four years arc a. follows
ls75 S32y677ii - 1873. .s:.s. .22S 400 ~
Is1I... 32,3I.,s1G O2 ls72.... 32,0JG20O 81
The amounts inserted in the levy for the in
tercsi on the City Debt i'll each OF these years
have been as follows:
1878 ~ 80. 300. 900 1873. ........s ~ 0OO.OOO
is7i........ s.3oo'Oo0 is72........ sAst.3oS
The total amount Of interest to be PAID this
year is fully S1O,OO0O00, OF which over
800, 900 will bo derived from the revenues
from Croton water, included in the receipts
of the Sinking Fund FOR the payment OF IN
tcrcst on the City Debt. These $l0,00o,OOO
include some 81 300 900 paid on stocks belong
ing to the Sinking Fund. The City Debt Is
still Increasing. as appears from the following
statement of its amount, after deductins the
stocks in the Sinking Fund, on the 3lst of
May in each of the last four years:
May 81 1s72i 227 7SO May 81. 1874 81 o762. 300
MAY 81, 1873. IO7.ss30l3 May 81, 1870. l27oli.71O
This shows an increase of tceaty-seren per
cent in three years. The overthrow of Tam
many, the panic tho stagnaiiou of business,
come and go Except that the last still fingers
with us), bni nothing interrupts the growth OF
the City Debt. 1t is useless to hope for lower
taxes while the Debt continues its present
alarming rate of increase. Borrow, borrow,
