The Board of Public Works.

From legal standpoint the present
discussion over the legality of the in
stitution of the Board of Public Works
is quite nonsensical. In the whole
question there is but one point, and
that is whether the Legislature has a
right to regulate municipal affairs.
That question was settled when the
State of Massachusetts established Its
State Constabulary force, and when
New York inaugurated the system of
the Metropolitan Police. Never was
legislation harder fought, both in the
Courts and the bodies that instituted
these systems; and it will be remem-
bered that in the contest in New York,
FERNANDO WOOD, being Mayor, sur
rounded the City Hall with his entire
force to prevent the entrance of the
Metropolitan Police to take charge of
the office, or assume their functions
over the City Police under the law.
The matter was fought by both force
and argument, and under the decision
of the Supreme Court, or rather both
that and the Court Of Appeals, the
metropolitan Police still exists. In
Massachusetts there was not so vigo-
rous opposition to the State Consta-
bulary, yet the same objections were
nd hn do
cided that the State constabulary was
legally constituted body. The high
est tribunals in these States aid down
the rule that has ever been sustained
and is familiar to every student who
has read hundred pages of BLACK
STONE, that the Legislature can make
any enactment tending to the public
good, not in conflict with the specific
provisions of the constitution. Upon
this principle the States of Massachu-
setts and New York have decided that
the Legislature has the right to thus
legislate in regard to municipal af-
fairs. The constitution governs the
application of legislation, and the SUI
preme Court alone can settle its legal
ity. We understand that an amount
of nearly two thousand dollars has
been raised by the opponents of the
Board to fight the matter of opposi-
tion through, but we think that under
the existence of we'll established pre-
cedents it Is money mis-spent. The
principle is so firmly established and
adhered to by the courts that there
can be no doubt that both the Legis-
lature will be sustained in creating
the Board and the Governor in MAX
ing the appointments.

The benefits of competition are tru-
ly great. We learn that before the

fare from Los Angeles to Prescott, but
now the fare has been reduced by op-
position to S28.

the editor, Judge Wiseman, on the
brilliant scintillations which emanate
from his pen. No one can doubt, af-
ter reading his writings, that he
spends his days with Addison and his
nights with Steele.
1t is expected that the business of
securing the right-of-way for the Ca

railroad building. That he contem-
plates an effort in this direction, is
presumable, in the event of his ever
securing a satisfactory government
subsidy to the Texas Pacific road. But,
if we may judge by the demands al
ready mace, it is hardly to be sup
posed that a satisfactory subsidy will
be voted that road during the next
century, and on this failure we may
safely predicate our opinion that the
Colonel will leave no record in the his
tory of his day and time as a great
railroad builder. AS railroad man
ager the Colonel has succeeded in ex-
tending his authority over number
of roads. He is now either President
or Manager of the following compan
les: The Pennsylvania Railroad, the
Pennsylvania Qeasing and operating),
the Pittsburg, Cincinnati and st. Lou
is Railway, the Northern Central
Railroad, the Baltimore and Potomac
Railroad, the Texas and Pacific Rail
way, the Indianapolis and Vincennes
Railway, the Jeffersonville, Madison
and indianapolis Railway. The re-
ports of all these companies show
that they are heavily in debt, and it
appears these liabilities have been
contracted within the period o. the
COlonePs connection with them. 1t
cannot be set down to his superior
managing ability that some of these
companies are bankrupt and their busi-
ness in the hands of receivers. We may
add that the Colonel has had official
connection, either as manager or di-
rector during the past few years with:
The Erie Railway, the Union Pacific,
the Atlantic and Pacific, the Philadel-
phia and Erie Railway, the Southern
Railway Security, the Northern Pa
cific Railway, the Kansas Pacific Rail-
way, the Allegheny Valley Railway,
the California ana Texas Construction
and the Arizona Land and Mining.
1t is to be regretted that none of these
companies have grown wealthy
through the superior managing abil-
ity of our friend, the Colonel. They
are, we believe without exception,
all seriously involved and a majority
of them are financially bank krunt The
Colonel has had unlimited control of
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company's
affairs for a long time. An examina-
,tion of that company's statements
since the close of the rebellion does
not reflect credit on the managing
ability of our friend, the Colonel. The
following table shows the increase of
the company's liabilities:
