"They manage these things better In France. 81
In Paris, the moment the surface of street is
broken workmen are set to work repairing It,
almost before 1t has become fairly noticeable to
passers by. In fact, repairers are kept con-
stantly In the field there, generally doing
large part OF their work at night Thus it Is
that the streets of that city are made the stand
Ing admiration of the world, and kept so, too
at minimum OF cost In money as well as at q
minimum of Inconvenience to travel and busf-
ness. In Washington. on the other hand, the
rule seems 70 be to let break in the street sur
lace get about as bad as 1t well can before tax
Ing IL IN hand. A f0rcible illustration of this
policy may be seen at the turn from Pennsylva-
MIA avenue into Fifteenth street, and along that
street to New York avenue. There is no telling
how many carnage springs have been Injured
or how many wheels wrenched In this particu-
lar much-traveled locality, but the damage Of
that sort must already be considerable; and the
repair to the street itself, which at first would
have required little or no outlay, will presently
cost quite round sum. Other places in the
city may be nearly or quite as bad as this spot,
but it is referred to as an easily seen specimen
of what is complained Of.
Whether the authorities or the street cOntrac-
tors are directly to blame for this state Of
things. we do not know. Nor Is 1t material,
But what is apparent and material is the fact
that this practice Is not good administration
nor true economy. Laying aside all questions
of how the comforts and rights Of the people are
affected in the matter, there is no branch OF
public or private economy where the old adage
that ssa stitch In time saves nine" applies with
SO much force as 1t does TO the care Of streets
and roads.

The Cincinnati Commercial says that Stanley
Matthews and Judge Taft are the great Grant
men" In that corner of the state but it does
not think they will work well enough together
to carry Hamilton county for their candidate.
1t says: I'VE understand perfectly the opposi-
ton to Sherman here. 1t is in the ring that
has been fastened upon us for some years, and
is composed Of members of both political parties
allied for the purpose Of making personal profit
out OF public affairs 1t says further, that the
democrats are Grant men until he is nominal

boom. The Commercial f1atters ITSELF however,
that the exposure of the scheme will assure Its
defeat.

The action of the regular democratic state
committee OF New York yesterday shows that
Tldens hold upon it is as firm as ever. Only
three members manifested any sort Of opposi-
ton to the carrying out of Tildens plans. By
its course in referring the entire duty for which
1t was called together-the selection OF time
and place for holding state convention-to a
subcommittee the committee betrayed its fear
of the antiTtlden sentiment. This was an un-
usual proceeding, and 1t was done to prevent
Tammany from carrying out its threat Of hold
ing state convention at the same time and
place. If T1lden has the grip upon his party In
New York that Is claimed by his friends why
need he fear an opposition convention9 The
call must be made public, and no doubt John
Kelly will follow it Immediately with call for
the assembling of his friends.

The Hostile Move Against the Wash
ingtOn Monument.

We hope there Is no truth in the report that
the committee on public buildings and grounds
propose to bring In bill to appoint Joint COM
mittee, to sit during the recess of Congress, for
the purpose OF selecting q plan and msstug ar
rangement~ for the completion OF the Washing
ton monument. A step OF this character is
hostile to the construction OF this long-delayed
work. is reflection upon the committee for the
District of Columbia in the House, now charged
by the House with this matter, and means sus-
pension OF present operations, and plunge into
the sea OF rival designs and most costly monu-
ments, with the hopes of bringing up from the
deep some other design to take the place of this
imposing obelisk. 1t means that no effort is to
be spared to prevent the completion Of the
present monument, or Of any monument, what
ever; for from the well-known excessive cost of
the architectural designs suggested,-from
three to five million dollars,-it is quite
certain none Of them will be adopted.
The determination to complete the national
Washington monument was settled by Congress
in the act OF August I'd, 1876, and not one Of the
numerous reports, by special or regular commit
tees in either branch Of Congress, from the time
the cornerstone OF the existing structure was
laid to the present moment, has been adverse to
its completion. We have personally examined
the work now going on upon the monument
and are convinced that every obstacle to the
successful completion of the Obelisk has been
overcome by the joint commission having the
work in charge; and we feel sure IL the general
sentiment Of the people of the country could be
consulted 1t would insist upon pushing the shaft
to completion with as little delay as possible
Certainly the people who selected the design for,
and have built what is now existing of this
monument, would not be inclined to stultify
themselves by pulling down their work, or by
covering it with an Italian campaniie.

There is no prospect OF an alliance between
the democrats and greenbackers in Connecti-
cut. The latter refuse to listen to any PROPOSE
ton OF the kind, even from their own party.
They have deposed Alex. Troup, about the
ablest greenbacker in the state, from their
state committee, because he advised a union
with the democrats in the approaching cleo
ton. The greenback- labor party seems deter
mined to play lone hand in the presidential
game, and the rapid manner in which their
numbers have declined during the last year or
so indicates that there will be but few mourn
ers over their fate. 1t will strain the party
machinery to find followers enough to compose
electoral tickets In all the states.

The reported quarrel between the
President and Secretary Sherman
is probably manufactured out of
whole cloth Their relations are
the best and will probably remain
so. 1t is well to observe the rule
that Republican quarrels are manu-
factured chiefly 10y democrats, and
have no real foundation. The repub
lican party have an idea that the
present year is to be one of great
importance in our history, aud they
do not propose to fritter away any
chances by iudulging in personal
quarr"Is.
The elections committee of the
Senate have voted to commit as great
an outrage as their fellow democrats
proposed but failed to commit III
Maine. They will try to steal the
seat Of Senator Kellogg OF Louisiana
for Spoiford, who claims it simply be-
cause he is Bourbon like the pres
ent majority, and because, if possible
they desire to secure control of the
Senate for the future. They will
find, however, that Senator Blaine
learned something about these things
in Maine, and will apply his knowl.
edge in this case, and there are
plenty of republican Senators to help
him resist this infamous game.
Captain Fades has been before the
Congressional Committee again to
tell about his plan for ship rail
way across the Is,hmus. He shows
over and over again that it is much
cheaper than any canal project ever
presented. The committee and mem
bers generally are very favorably
Impressed with Captain Fades show

General John B. Hawley's resign
alton as assistant secretary of the
Treasury was unexpected. He was
not satisfied with the position, and
is likely that his resignation was

his chances for the nominato on for
Governor of Illinois may be in
reased
The Star route efficiency bill has
passed the Senate. 1t gives the pub
lie printer eleven hundred thousand
dollars, which is quite an increase
over the amount appropriated 10y the
