Ii is a good illustration of the persistcncy Of
the popular demand for rapid transit that the
greatest OF the horsc-car companies has at last
been goaded INTO an attempt to fWnlah
what is hardly more than counterfeit
of the real article Scarcely has the
announcement been made that the Ele-
waited Railroad proposes to push its line
up the East Side before the Third Avenue
Company asks permission of the Mayor and
Common Council to transport its 3OOOo,OOO
passengers Il year by steam power. The IN
vention which is to be utilized has been tested
elsewhere, and with apparently good results
and the officers of the company seem TO have
10 fear in introducing steam power on
their crowded thoroughfare. The public
VIII be glad to see this experiment and
an experiments tried that lead in the
direction of rapid transit. Having Gu
dured so long the despotism Of the horse
ear companies and having waited 50 long for
the capitalists to come to their relief, they
will witness now with the utmost cOmpldccncy
the competition between the capitalists and
the companies for their favor. 1t IS about
time the community and the common carrier
resumed their proper relations

President Hayes has put the whole theory
into three words. The institution on Wall-st.

ure of Office during good behavior 1t is a
happy phrase.

There arc strong indications that Greece Is
drifting into war. The people and press have
already declared themselves in favor OF aiding
Russia. The popular sentiment has now COM
municated itself to the Deputies, who nave
overthrow the Ministry, which has hlther-
to observed a cautious policy. Strong et-
forts Will doubtless be made by England to
restrain King George, but he may be MS pow
crlcss as was his predecessor to resist the
national will. Should he go with the current
he might send $4,000 men and Il war ves-
sells. including one ironclad, against the COM
mon foe. The strategic position OF ms KING
dom, however, renders its alliance OF greater
consequence than its military strength.
Can't Howgate is fully in earnest as to the
projected Polar expedition. He proposes to
send ont q vessel under command OF Cant.
Tyson to make preliminary arrangements at
the north. The plan and the selection OF Capt
Tyson seem alike judicious. When the British
expedition under Capt. Mares was preparing
for sea, there were heard frequent expressions
of regret from our merchants and others that
nobody in this country was ready to start ON
a similar expedition, and that America was
likely to be distanced in the race to the Pole.
An opportunity is now afforded to give 4 tan
giblc shape to the ambition for Arctic discov-
erv, since the new feature of Capt. HOwgate' ;
plan requires a small subscription oil money
and materials for outfit.

1t is easier to assemble Parliament than to

UuR INDIAN POLICY.

There is no escaping the conviction
that our Indian policy has been mis-
take from the very first Apparently
the government has never vet deter-
mined whether the Indians sustain the
relation of conquered enemies, belligere
ant enemies. or co-proprietors of the.
country, Sometimes our policy would.
Indicate that we regard them in one
character. then the other, and then
finally as having, in both their race and
tribal capacities. equal. Al least. if not
superior civil rights 10 the citizens
proper OF the country. The weak,
vaeillating, sentimental policy of the
government, which obtained for at least
= quarter Of a century before our late
civil war, produced two very grave and
serious effects First, il proved to the
untutoFed savage mind that the govern
nlent regarded their strength as being
formidable, and the evidence os it was
plaiuiy seen in the elaborate defenses
prepared against their possible incur
sions. Secend, ii taught the savage that
in a contest with the white man, he was
invinclhle, becaase personally he had
more strength and endurance The
savage WAS taught by this criminally
weak policy, that where the white man
could muster thousands OF warriors, he
could parade millions. That proper
ton has been maintained in every con,
siderable contest which has as yet oc-
cured between the government aTi the
Indians. Until now, at this late day,

scaipers aaunt a defiance in the face OF
