The revised ordinances of Chicago take all
telegraph wires or other electric conductors of
any kind whatever out OF the air and reuulre
them 10 be placed underground. Not only are
aerial lines forbidden to be erected In future,
but those new existing are required to be put
underground By the first OF May, 1883. Chicago
has but anticipated the other cities OF the
United States IL this action. Telegraph poles
and hundreds OF wires interlacing each other
have become an unbearaDle nuisance, aud the
companies might as well be preparing to abate
1t. for 1t has been universally condemned By
public opinion.

The people Of st. Louis take every occasion
TO manifest their sympathy with the strike
against the street railway companies When
the striking conductors and drivers appear
they are applauded by the men, and are
greeted With encouraging smiles from the
ladies. Men who undertake to run cars against
the strikers, are Jeered and hooted aad In sew
eral cases have been violently pulled from the
cars, not by the strikers, buL by sympathizing
citizens. The street Car corporations had
gradually increased the working hours and
decreased the pay OF their employees, until
public sentiment was driven to support the

Those who talk of Mr.. Frye as being "Blaine's
man" and as having "recited Blaine's speech
are singularly misinformed as to the status of
the new Senator from Maine Those who know
him at home are aware that he stands quite as
1rmly On his own pins as any man In public
life. and that his late speech In the Senate rep.

one of the first things to leave an unfavor-
able impression upon the minds OF strangers to
our city is the frequent importuning for aims
on Our public streets; and to our own citizens
it Is none the less annoying. Were there occa-
sion for this, we might brook, though with IL
grace, this un-American habit, and set It down
as one OF the penalties Of city lfe But so far
as this easy going rule applies TO Washington,
there is no occasion for It We hazard little
in asserting that money enough IS given away
for charitable purposes il our midst to relieve
double the number 1T ever reaches. And why?
Because OF the lack of that perfect system which
obtains In all large cities and which has re-
duced aims giving almost to a science. 1t is
not enough to give only when the emergency
demands 1t, but TO provide for the Inevitable
"rainy day in such manner as Will lessen the
burdens OF the giver. both In pocket and In
mind. and tighten the load the poor have to
carry. Organized charity alone can accomplish
this and we are pleased to learn that a meeting
has been recently he'd at the residence of one
of our weil-known citizens where the matter
was fully discussed, and the promise is given
that at an early day plan Will be perfected
and submitted to the public that cannot fail of
approval

The Star Route Frauds.

A table Of the star routes. which are now the
subject OF investigation, shows the manlpuIa-
ton OF ntnety-tbree routes out OF 9,225, whereby
the annual cost OF the ninety-three routes was
raised betw cen July l, 1878, and January /, $780,
from SI21,ll9 10 s., S02,2I4 The regular appro-
priation for star route service for the year ended
June 50, 1850, was So $780, GOO. OF this amount
g .St2,2l4 was absorbed by the ninety -Jhree
routes embraced In the table, leaving So .091, 156
for the remaining 9,132 routes. The frauds
seem TO nave been mainly In connection With
the routes in louisiana, Texas, Indian Terri
tory, Kansas. Nebraska, Dakota, Montana,
Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona,
Utah, Idaho, oregon, Nevada and California.
The rates of increase obtained by contractors
In many OF these cases are enormous. One
route In the Indian territory was swelled from
$1,000 to $50 900; one Ia Dakota from 81, $50 to
$4,000; one in Wyoming from 81 900 to $50, COO;
one In Colorado from $3.50 to S., 1873, etc., etc.
In considering the aggregate Increased pay
shown by the table, 1t should be borne In mind
that the increase extends over the remainder OF
the contract term, the full term being four
years. Assuming that three years Is the aver
age period for which the increased pay would
run on the ninety-three routes described the
aggregate OF the arbitrary awards on these
routes would be Sc 49, s5.

LONDON, December 23.-Mr. Pyatt,
former proprietor of the Dublin
Irishman, who recently issued articles
respecting the Land League, pub
lished letter further explaining his
views, in which he says he believes
that Fenianism is practically extinct
in America and in Ireland, and near.

no rent manifesto has caused such
a run upon the resources Of the Land
League that they must soon be ex-
hausted, and that probably the gen

will lead to such exasperation that
there will be organized attacks On
the military and police, and which
attacks can be efectually stamped
out. and the League with them.
