THE TBAMWAY NUlSANCES.


The amount of inconvenience the people of
this city were subjected TO last week by the
miserly policy of their two chief streetca
lines is almost incredible. When heavy
snowfall occurs sensible folks expect some
difficulty in getting about, but when thirty
six hours or more have intervened it is only
reasonable to expect that the usual accom-
modations, always meagre enough, will be
resumed The F-street line we believe the
meanest in the world. Its track is so rough
that IL is torture TO ride over parts of it, and
when car gets oil the track, which happens
oftener on this than on any other street-car
line we know Of the jolting passengers re-
ceive is simply terrific. But II the company
will not relay its track so as TO make 1t rea-
sonably smooth, or provide for keeping its
cars on the rails, it might at least furnish
cars enough TO give passengers seats. As 1t
dispenses with conductors, compelling pas
sengers to perform service they might
fairly refuse, in letting 60 the straps to (which
they are suspended TO hand up tickets, II
ought TO spend part of the amount thus
saved in the pay of employees in running
more cars. II Mr.. Beck's bill to compe
these monopolists TO pay some regard to thu
rights of the public does not become law
IT will not be because the companies do no
furnish ample provocation to Congressiona
action. When will the Ilerdc coaches ap

N. Bit will now be in order for Mr.. J
w. Thompson to make another tour of hi
business acquaintance and again beg then
not to advertise in The SUNDAY HERALD.

BRETETs FOR INDIAN WARS.

1t is understood that the President will
soon send list Of nominations to the Senate
for brevet commissions in the Army for
service in Indian campaigns. Officers who
are serving on the frontier feel that
they have just cause for complaint that
these brevets have not heretofore been con-
firmed, as they have twice been submitted
to the Senate by President Grant and it is
the concurrent testimony of all who are
familiar with the subject that some of the
most conspicuous acts of gallantry have beer
performed by those officers in the Indiar
wars of the. past decade. Besides this thu
Senate has already confirmed one list o
brevets for similar services since the passage
of the last act of Congress in reference to tn,
subject.
Brevets cost the Government nothing
and they confer nothing upon the officer
but empty titles, but they constitute tn
only means lett for rewaraing our officers 70
conspicuous gallantry in battle, as actua
promotion is, with but few exceptional cases
entirely by seniority.

4 GREAT BRITISH BATTLE.

General Sir Frederick Roberts is the hero
of the hour in England. He has been the
guest of the Queen at Windsor Castle, Cat the
time of Lord Beaconsfeld's visit,) and has
been much feasted and toasted. Old Ameri-
can soldiers, accustomed to the long distances

versed, will be at some loss for the grounds
upon which all England is pronouncing
Robertss march from Cabul to Candahar,
(3ls miles in % days,) entirely unopposed,
such a splendid military achievement. II
was fair marching, but not at all wonderful.
But when the same old soldiers have read a
few of the columns which the British press
is gushing about the battle of Maiwand, in
which Roberts's force defeated Ayoob Khan,
they can hardly help, when they come to the
end of his official report, which has just
reached us in the English mails, to break
out in uncomfortable laughter when they
discover that in this "great battle of Mai
"wand" her Majesty's forces had Just fort!

lP the Senate will act promptly OH the Dis
trict code, there is a fair prospect that the
monstrous anachronisms Of the laws under
which we are governed will be wiped out at
the present session. There is no other spot
of ground on the continent where such an
absurd and obsolete set of statutes are in
force. This is because nothing has ever been
enacted to take the place Of the Maryland
and colonial laws of century ago, while
everywhere else the statutes have kept pace
with the progress of civilization. Not
lawyers and judges only but litigants and
business men also will feel grateful to those
Senators and Representatives who have spent
so much time and labor on the work of codi-
flying our laws.

GENERoLLS GAS MEN

The Washington Gas-Light Company ad-
vertises itself by subscription to the Inau-
guration fund. 1t would be better for the
monopoly to avoid notice. Every body knows
that it is not generous with money it has
fairly earned, but is trying to throw dust in
the eyes of the public with money flched
from the public's pockets. Then the increased
consumption of gas, or the increased opror-
tunity for making out big bills which the
Inauguration crowd will afford, will add 60
much to the monopoly's profits that it could
afford to give ten times the amount Of its
subscription
