The Dog I'm the Manager.

No better illustration of the dog-in-the-
Manager policy of some of our city corpora
tons could be given than the farce which
has been enacted during the last two days
before the Rapid Transit Commissioners.
The commission is in session for the purpose
of hearing objections to the construction of
an elevated railroad in Third avenue, the
Bowery and Pearl street; and our readers
who have watched the proceedings have OBJ
served that the directors are not the prop
erty owners in these thoroughfares, but
such corporations as the Third Avenue Rail-
road Company and the Underground Rail-
road, whatever that may be. 1t was
from such sources that the opposi-
ton was to be expected. These COM
panies will not give us rapid transit
themselves and if they can help it they will
not allow any other company to do it This
is the meaning of the long arguments of Mr..
Parsons and Mr. Vandenburgh before the
Commissioners, and to gain their end there
will yet be almost endless discussion. 1t is
due from the commission to the people of
New York that this dog-in-the-manger policy
should not triumph. If there is any one
thing which the city needs more than
another it is rapid transit For this we look
to the Commissioners. Objections such as
are urged to the construction of an elevated
road in Third avenue will confne the i'm
mense travel of that street to the slow and
overcrowded horse cars, against which so
many complaints are constantly made, and it
must be as plain to the Commissioners as it
is to the people that this opposition only
means the street railroads forever.

We publish this morning an abstract of
the first report of the Canal Commission
but of much greater importance than this
document is the testimony which accom-
panied it and part of which we print. The
story of the Albany Basin, now made public
for the first time, is in itself an astounding
revelation. An inspector was appointed to
measure this work, and, according to his
own testimony, he not only falsifed the
record but was paid bonus of ten
cents for every load of sand delivered
to the new Capitol Commission. Such un-
blushing corruption as this scarcely dis
eraced the city of New York in the worst
days of the Ring. Besides, some testimony
is made public in regard to the improve
ment of the Oneida Lake Canal which shows
that George d. Lord and his associates in
that work were able to obtain ninety-two
thousand dollars by special legislation above
the amounts to which they were entitled
under their contracts. The deeper the COM
mission probes these frauds the more as
founding do they become Every work,
however insignificant in itself, was q noun
tain of corruption. The Canal Ring, which
Governor Tilden's enemies last year declared
had no existence in fact, managed to rob the
State in every direction and with an effron-
terry which Tweed would scarcely have
shown, and we fear that now the exposures
are net even complete. One thing at least
is certain-namely, that punishment has
been slow in overtaking fraud. On this sub
iect we have right to demand of Governor
Tilden what he is going to do about it If
he was as sincere in pursuing the canal
thieves as he pretended to be year ago now
is the time to punish them. These expos
ures must be made TO bear correctional
fruit, and for this we look to the Governor.

THE SUGGESTION for fund for the relief of
the families of deceased firemen, which we
print in another column, is not only timely
but honorable to great city like New York.
No class Of men in the community, as was
shown in the recent fire in Broadway, run
greater risks to life and limb in the service
of others than our fremen, and it is certainly
due to the widows and orphans of those who
are always ready to sacrifice their lives in the
performance of duty that the business men
of the city should raise sum which will
keep the families of deceased fremen from
want

The Street Cars-Mr. Berghs Plan.

We print this morning a communication
from our friend Mr.. Bergh, the President of
the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, in reference to the car question.
Mr.. Bergh has come before the public with
so many Utopian schemes for the further
ance of his pet hobby that when he really
falls upon subject of public interest like
the car question his recommendations are
worthy of praise and respect. Mr.. Bergh
gives an amusing description of his adven-
lures in the street cars, in which he will
have the sympathy of those of our people
who have undergone the horrors of the
middle passage" between the HERALD
Office and Harlem. Mr., Bergh proposes to
strike the whole thing at the root. He pro-
poses a BILL drawn up by an accomplished
lawyer, which makes it incumbent upon the
railroad men to provide seats at least twenty
inches wide, divided by an iron rung or
arm. When the car is full the conductor
shall so signify in a notice on the outside Of
the car. 1t will be q misdemeanor for the
company to allow any more passengers than
the car can carry, and the officers shall be
liable to arrest for a misdemeanor This is
to be punished. The execution of the act
will be left to the officers of the society of
which Mr.. Bergh is President. We need
not say that this will give us an assurance
that the act will be enforced.
Altogether, we like this bill, although it
may be amended in some respects, especially
SO as not to give Mr.. Bergh the inquisitorial
power that he sometimes assumes in the dis
charge of the peculiar functions of his Office.
We are not without hope that the owners Of
our cars, now that they see that the people
are in earnest in opposing the outrageous
manner in which they abuse their franchise,
will amend their course. The ownership of
these routes is franchise of enormous
value. The people are willing that these
owners shall have good interest from their
investment but they are not willing that the
journey from the HERALD Office to HAIR
lem and Manhattanville shall be like the old
slave ships in crossing the Atlantic with
their human cargoes. These routes were
given to the owners, not to carry cargoes,
but passengers.
This whole question of transit and rapid
transit must be settled upon proper basis.
The time is rapidly Ginning when the monop-
oily of these long lines will come to an end.
We must have rapid transit The money of
the railroad people may delay the measure,
but the tide of public opinion will 60 in re-
sistless flow. Rapid transit will take away
from the longer lines good part of their
business, but it will leave them as much as
they can do with due regard to the comfort
Of the public. There will always be large
travel on the street cars from ladies going to
shop, passengers south of Thirtieth street,
people who have leisure and are indifferent
about time, visitors who wish to see the city.
There is business enough for two classes of
railways.
| We trust that the bill of Mr.. BerRh may

CRossTowN CAREY.-The people of this
city cannot fail to understand the impor-
lance which the horse railroad companies
attach to their privilege of overcrowding
when it is known that these corporations
keep such man as Crosstown Carey at
Albany to lobby against the "No seat no
fare" measure. But Senators and Assembly
men must remember that the people of New
York are also aware that there is only one
argument which lobbyists can use against
the rights of the public and that bribery
is punishable offence. In the beginning
we warned the Legislature against lobby in
fuence in this matter, and now that it is
manifesting itself we can again call the at
tention of members to the dangers of deny
ing the people their rights in the interest OF
grasping monopolies. Neither Crosstown
Carey nor any other agent of the street rail-
roads must be allowed to defeat measure
so necessary TO the comfort of the entire
population of this city, and every member
will be held to the strictest accountability
for his vote.

The Interest in Manly Sports.
We print this morning an interesting arti-
Gle from The Turf, Field and Farm, weekly
sporting journal printed in this city, de-
scribing the game Of polo, now so much the
vogue in England and India. This article
embraces an extract from the London Ieie-
graph describing the game as played at Cal
cutta by some officers of the British army.
We infer from the letter that the game has an
Indian origin 1t is odd that we should be
indebted even for our games to that wonder
full people who are now honoring the Prince
of Wales. The description is exciting
enough, and we infer from what the CORE
spondent says it is game of ball played on
horseback, requiring unusual agility and
courage 1t ranks with the best class of
games-namely, those which require the
open air, close physical training GOODNESS,
nerve and endurance. The tendency of
men of Saxon blood toward games of this
character lies at the bottom of their stamina
and their power of conquest 1t is said of the
Duke of Wellington that, as he stood looking
at group of Elton boys chasing cricket
ball over the field, he remarked that it was
in such sports that the battle of Waterloo
was won.
There is no reason why the game should
not be adopted here, especially as the Mexi-
can mustang ponies, which are well adapted
to it, may be readily obtained. With us it
is not familiar pastime but we ought
to welcome every new sport and every
attempt to make popular the old ones. We
are not enough in the sunshine in this eager.
hurrying, money making, ledger-grubbing
age. We need q revival of manliness as
not know, with all respect to Brother Moody,
whether a revival of religion would not
come more surely by teaching the people
the value of exercise and training and a
development of all our faculties. Brother
Moody is one of the sturdiest men in our
generation and looks as it, should the worst
come to the worst, he could get away with
the Hon. John Morrissey without violating
the rules of the London prize ring. He
himself should take the initiative in
teaching sinners that true religion
means the enjoyment of all inno-
cent amusements. Exercise makes healthy
man, and healthy man is sure to be good
citizen and the best material for making q
good Christian. This revival in athletic
sports-in coaching, yachting and field
games-is, therefore, one of the most crafty
ing signs of the times. The centennial year
will give US an opportunity of seeing what
our friends across the water have been able
to do with the whip and the rod, the oar and
the bat, the horse and the rifle. Whenever
we have had q fair chance with our friends
we have been able to hold our own, and in
some cases, as when the America went
abroad some years ago and the rihemen last
year, we have gained triumphant victories.
There might be a series of international COM
petitions during the year in all sports in
which we have attained any proficiency.
Whatever looks toward encouraging out
door life and the sports of the field will
give manliness and dignity to the national
character.
