A Source Of Danger.

Nothing IL more pleasant or more health

heat OF the day, than walk in Central
Park. Thousands avail themselves Of that
privilege of New Workers and thousands
moro would do SO but for one drawback.
The fact that the Park is left in dark.
ness, without q gas lamp to relieve the
gloom, dcters large numbers of persons
from seeking its pleasant paths and sweet
smelling meadows after sunset. Except
on nights when there is a bright moonlight
the Park is SO dark that no unprotected
female cares to venture there, notwithstand-
ing the crowds by which the principal
walks are thronged. AS the most pleasant
and desirable promenade in the city the
Park ought certainly to be lighted. We
spend large amount of money on gas, and
nowhere else can public lamps be placed
where they will be more useful or more
welcome to the people. The main
avenue ought at least to be brilliantly
lighted, and then the police would
have better opportunity to guard
the less frequented paths. The present
condition OF the Park is an encouragement
to rowdyism and vice, and u source of evil
in many directions. Occasionally outrages
or insults are brought to public notice, but
it is certain that many occur which meyer
reach the light. The people would not Be-
grudge an additional appropriation for gas
for the purpose of making the Park safe
evening resort, available to females who
have no escorts as well as to oil others but
we really spend enough money on the Park
to warrant demand that this most neces-
sary improvement be made at once. With
proper economy enough might be saved in
other items OF expenditure to secure the

The members Of the socialistic labor pnrty
in the United States are called on by their
leaders in this city to contribute money
toward fund to be used in Germany for the
support of the families Of Communists ar
rested there. At the meeting held at Citizen
Schwabs quarters last night the German
Emperor was denounced as atyrant; but the
speakers forgot to remind their hearers to be
thankful that they live here ina free coun-
try. where they may say and print what
they please, vote as they like, and are re-
quired only to keep the peace. After all.
when Citizen.Schwab compares his condi-
ton in the United States with that of his
brethren in Europe, he can hardly help
feeling a certain degree of respect for the
political institutions of the United States.
They might be a great deal worse.

Lees ce.

A correspondent thinks the HERALD is un-
just to Lee, of Newark, in designating the
unfortunate mistake which lost him the
single scull race at Henley an ''unaccount-
able piece of ignorance" We cannot see
how his blunder can be called anything
else. In rowing o race'a contestant ought
certainly to make himself familiar with the
course over which he is to pull and with
the spot where the race is to enA He might
almost as well get into his boat with one
scull as to start in ignorance of this very
necessary knowledge We believe that Lee
would hnvo won the race if he had not made
this unfortunate blundeS but as it enabled
his competitor to pass the winning line
ahead Lee lost the race and it is useless to
cry over spilled milk. After oil, the great
victory of the Columbus is SO distinctivoly
an American victory, won by so distinctly
a representative American crew, that we
can we'll afford TO rest satisfied with it.
Lee would no doubt have carried off the
honors of the single scull championship
but for mistake which ought never to have
lost him the victory for which no struggled
SO manfully and so we'll.

High Press ure.

We ore beginning to receive complaints of
a scarcity OF water in uptown districts, and
while there does not seem to be much
danger Of repetition Of the annoyances of
the last two or three years continuance Of
the dry weather may yet occasion much in
convenience from deficient supply. The
Public Works Department has already
adopted measures for economizing the use
aud preventing waste of the Croton water
and has accomplished much good in that
direction, but ut this time extraordinary
efforts are needed to prevent scarcity
which during the present excessive heat
would bc more than ordinarily injurious
and annoying. At the last session of the
Legislature law was enacted authorizing
the expenditure Of portion Of the iunds
already appropriated for the purposes OF the
Croton Water Bureau in securing higher
pressure and better supply in the upper
districts Of the city. 1t is to be hoped that
no distractions will be placed in the way
of this desirable work. We ought, to be
sure, to havo some better water policy than
q mere tinkoring to fight off q famine but
while we are compelled to depend on our
present insufficient resources let us at least
do all that can possibly be done to prevent
the Inconvenience and danger Of an insult
hcient delivery.

Another Trade I'm Danger.

Another fendish attack upon labor is
reported. The Governor of Iowa is said to
have issued proclamation urging the
property against tramps, even by the aid
Of the military 1t may be all very well to
prevent the robberies and insults which
follow the advent of tramps as naturally as
small boys follow the official dogcatchers;
but does this Governor realize that If the
extreme measures suggested by him should
become necessary they will result in the
utter ruin of one of the most serious of busi-
ness interests in the country? We refer to
that Of body-snxtching, or, in moro polite
terms, the supplying of physicians with
subjects. All the conditions of conflict
between the military and the tramps indi-
cate that it would terminate in the utter
decentralization of that business of which
officials of certain Western colleges have
lately spoken and written in n manner as
charmingly vague as the supposed inten-
tions of Premier Disraeli The Militia OF
Western State is sure to contain
number of good marksmen; the
trhnpS ukS "DSNs "o hNA1A~A~ss" "''
fence posts and rs disinclined to
move, so large supply Of subjects"
would be q foregone conclusion. They
could be shipped in large invoices and at
low rates, and taking them ut their own es-
Inmates as given during life they are oil
subject to physical disorders OF such mar
vcllous complications as to make them the
means of shedding upon pathological sci
ence an amount of light compared with
which that afforded by subject taken from
nh uneventiul life and quiet grave would
afford only a faint glimmer. Both in guam
tity and quality, therefore. the goods at the
disposal of the military would be sure to
drive out of the market those of the regular
operators Doubtless there will be resur-
rectionists' mass meetings and resolutions
and protests, but before it comes to this we
trust that Iowa's Chief Magistrate will real
ize the full gravity of the course he has
taken, and that he will retrace his steps be-
fore it il too late and he finds himself ire
vocably classed with grinding capitalists,
bloated bondholders and fendish monopo-
| lists.

Country Thieves.

The robbery of n young lady in coun-
try house by ruffians who held sponge
full of chloroform to her mouth until
she became insensible; the burglary
of Governor Van Zandt's house III
Newport; the garroting Of a passenger in
Troy street car in open day last week,
which is now suspected to have been the
work Of an organized band of thieves-these
and other similar incidents of life away
from the metropolis seem to show that the
noble fraternity OF thieves and burglars who
usually do business in the large cities are
taking the benefit of little country air.
We suspect they will regret the change. In
the city we have become SO accustomed
to being robbed that, though we complain
to the police, we regard it as too inevitable
nm incident of urban life to be resented by
reasonable men. But in the country q
burglary is still regarded as an insult and
the burglar as an intruder whom society
unites to bring to punishment Our de-
spatches relate that the Troy garroters are
already in Jail, and of the three thousand
dollars of which they relieved their victim
the greater part has been recovered, while
at Newport SO handsome reward has been
offered for. the rogues who made free with
pretty certain to be caught. A burglars

prison must give him some pangs OF regret,

pendaee to the other Anatolia will. under
the protection of England's Hindoo troops,
and an Anglo Ottoman administration, be-
come as much British dependency as the
Punjab. But sthe treaty is rs yet only
made between England and Turkey. 1t is
said in London that it is necessarily apart
from the labors Of the Congress, and can
not be changed by this body. But we can
not see that England, having extorted this
compact from the fears of the Sultan, is in
a different position from Russia when she
had extorted also from his fears the Treaty
of SanStefano; and as one had necessarily
to be ratified by Europe, so must the other.
If there is any difficulty made on that score
the decisions of the Congress will yet be
repudiated. and Russia will stand by the
Treaty Of San Stefano as England by her
latest scheme foo the protection of Ottoman
''independence."
The text of the convention that is
to govern the occupation OF Cyprus by
England is now before us, rs also the
Lord Salisbury and Minister Layard re-
garding the arrangement to counteract the
influence gained by Russia in the posses
sion of Batouln. In both can be seen the
determination of England to decide ques-
tions in her own interest, entirely inde-
pendent of the will of the Congress. She
arranged for Cyprus before the Congress
assembled, and by an article Of her conven-
ton stipulates that she will surrender that
island to the Sultan only when Russia
cvacuates Armenian strongholds which the
Congress of the Powers has formally agreed
the latter should possess.

Pistols and Police.

The three detectives who went out on the
steamer Schuyler last Sunday with an ex-
cursion party, and on the return of the
boat arrested three young men who at
tended the bar for selling liquor in viola
ton Of the Excise law, appear to have per-
formed the feat more with view of perse-
cutting the owners and commander of the
boat than for the sake Of enforcing the law.
From the evidence it seems that the de-
uctives were the first to call for beer and
liquor at the bar, and thus to invite and
incite violation of the law. The fact that
the owners of the Schuyler have brought an
action for false imprisonment against o
police captain no doubt accounts for the
onslaught made on the barkeepers of the
in the case, provided the law was violated,
and does not excuse the violators. But it
is of questionable propriety for the police
to invite the sale of liquor by calling for it
and drinking it themselves, or to make arbi-
trary arrests in case Of disputed author
ity, when the offenders might have been
served with warrant and notified to an
swer the charge in accordance with what
are understood to be the orders of the Police
Board.
Above all, it is both illegal and inexcus-
able for police officer to draw his revolver
and threaten the lives Of persons on q
crowded steamboat when making an arrest
for a simple misdemeanor. The detective
who was guilty of such an outrageous act
on board the Schuyler is not fit to be in the
service The proprietors of the boat were
responsible for the alleged disregard of the
Excise law, and the bartenders, who are
only employees, could have been secured
whenever wanted. The idea of a police
detective drawing and threatening to use q
| loaded revolver in such case is preposter.
Gus, and charges ought to be preferred
| against the officer who so far exceeded his
authority. II he had shot and killed any
|. one on board the boat his crime would have
been murder The Police Commissioners
will fail in their duty if they do not dismiss
| from the service 30 indiscreet violent and
dangerous person.

Mr.. Zachariah Chandler q Grant
Man.


When that famous patriot, Colonel Sell
lers, declared in favor of ''the old flag and
m appropriation" he struck a familiar
chord in the American political bosom.
Here comes the Hon. Zachariah Chandler,
and, as it were, acknowledges the corn.
He is for General Grant in 1880, and Mr.
Chandler for Senator He reverses the old
proverb. and thinks all play and no work
makes Zack a dull boy. He longs to return
to the Senatorial halls, where he used to
hold the British lion up by the tail and
excite the derision of the public toward
that miserable beast He does not think
much of Mr.. Hayes, who did not think
enough of Mr.. Chandler to remember him
in the distribution of foreign missions.
But he ''goes for Grnnt"
About these times that is to be expected
General Logan would like to get back to
the Senate, and he is ''for Grant" also.
That eminent patriot, e. A. Storrs, of Chi
cago, who figured not wisely but too much
as General Babcock's counsel, is ''for
Grant" Wherever republican politician
turns up in these days as q Grant man.
Meantime we hear from the other side OF
the Atlantic that this idea Of serving again
in the White House amuses General Grant,
who enjoys his well-earned leisure and
does not think very highly of the discern
ment of those who pretend to want to nom-
mate him in 1880. He has had his turn and
thinks himself entitled to rest, and he
knows that his party has other men besides
himself able to administer the affairs of the
nation. We suspect that General Grant, if
he were asked, would be found 10 be o
Conkling man and as his advice and wishes
are certain to be consulted when the next
nomination comes to be made we shall be
surprised if he does not then signify his
belief that Senator Conkling is the fttest
man for the republicans to put ut the head
of their ticket Meantime it is pretty GER
tain that he understands the motives oi
those politicians who attempt to use him as
a sort of horseback to climb into seat Of
their own.
