THB ROAD TO THE DELAWARE need
mot be o hundred feet wide. Seventh
street is not more than about fifty feet
wide and there seems no need of ii be-
ing made any wider than its present
width. The caussway is not more
than sixty feet wide and it has an
swered all purposes. Market street is
not moro than sixty feet wide, and it
is as wide as necessary, Fourth street
is about eighty feet I; and read to
the Delaware Of that width would be
as wide as necessary. Indeed, as a
stroot 1t would be much pleasanter not
to be 20 wide. However, after pass
ing into the marsh, if the Dredging
Company prefer to make road one
hundred feet wide to one OF eighty
feet, in order to have place to dis
charge their mud, no objection would
be raised, since the width of street
could be regulated by the City Coun-
ell. Market street has double track
upon 1t and 1t has all the room that is
neeied. Were it as wide as Fourth
street 1t would only be the more dus-
ty and expose pedestrians more fully

MAKING FUN OF THE MAN WHO
GAVE NEW YORK TO GARFIELD
The Philadelphia Telegraph has the
following in ridicule of Mr.. Conk-
ling, but lately the greatest leader OF
its party:
''Peopie are sometimes compelled
to laugh at funeral. Mr.. Conklinp
yesterday hastily left Albany to ap.
pear - counsel in the Elevated Rail
way cases. The ex-Senator's position
~ the most "elevated" man in Ameri
can politics to day, his hopes having
been knocked higher than Gilroy's
kite, will cause q broad smile il
Court"
The daily gazette., 1881-06-04

THE New York Herald leans very
decidedly toward the Conkling faction.
In referring to the remarks of Mr..
Hayes about Conkling that paper sug-
gests "that Mr.. Hayes might have told
the reporter what he thought of the
star route disclosures, and why he had
not discovered in four years the stu
pendous frauds which President Gar
feld found in week. He might have
given some information as to the de
velopments in the Treasury during the
administration. There are many eues-
tions upon which Mr.. Hayes may en-
Tighten us of more interest to the coun.
try than Mr.. Conkling's mannerisms,
and Of more interest, also, TO his own
fame and the fame of his administra.
tion."
All true, very true. But then Conk-
ling's friends, Grant and Dorsey, and
many others high in authority, were
mixed up in these little Irregularities.
And then, again, Mr.. Hayes had about
as much as he could do to keep his
own friends from ''seuealing" about
the Louisiana frauds, and he might
have feared to expose frauds on this
account. Beside he had to do the bid
ding of John Sherman, and to see that
he was not exposed. Indeed there is
no telling what Hayes and Sherman
had to suffer and conceal in conse-
quence of fearing the exposure of their
own short comings.

The Comparative Wealth of Ma.

tiOns.
The total valuation of the nationa,
wealth OF this country as compared with
That OF other nations, as given by L. M.
Coan in recent humber of "Harpers'
Magazlne," is as follows: We stand near
the head OF ihe list-lhird on the list of
all the Western nations. The United
Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland
heads the list with a capital valuation of
IA, 100000, 900, then comes France with
S3s ,l0O, ,0O0,00O, the United States with
S32,000,0OO 900, Germany will 22,000,-
100000, Russia with $15 200, 900, ,00O, and
the Lower Countries with $l1, 10000 of
capital collectively. These are the val
uations made by those countries of their
entire resources. What is the average
annual income per inhabitant in various
couptries' We come to the front in this
comparison. The average annual in
coBe IN the United Kingdom is Sl65. in
the United States Sl65 also, III the Low
Countries $l30, in France $125. in the
British Colonies 800, in Germany and
also In Scandinavia $85. In this reckon
Ing Russia, with her ninety millions of
people, is out of sight as yet; she will
not be very long. On the score of an
annual accumulation our case is even
better, relatively far better. The annual
accumulation of wealth In Germany is
500, 1000, 900; 1t is $325, 100000 in the
United Kingdom; 1915, 100000 in
France; In the United States 1t is $S25.-
000,900 Our increase of national wealth
since 1S50,says good English authority
would be enough to "purchase the whole
German Empire, with it's farms, cities
banks, shipping, manufactures, etc. The
annual accumulation has been $S25, ,OOO,.
600, and therefore each decade adds
more 10 the wealth Of the United States
than the capital value of Italy or Spain.
Every day that the sun rises upon the
American people 1t sees an addition o,
$1,000. 900 to the wealth ofthe republic. y

SEVERE LANGUAGE If NOT DE-
sERvED.-One could hardly find in the
most expanded vocabulary of Billings
gate more derogatory, pointed and
severe language than that used by the
Now \ ork Tribune and Times in re-
gard to Mr.. Roscoe Conkling, and ex
Senator Dorsey, of the Star Route
notsriety. 1t must be born in mind
that the former gentleman was held
mp a. the greatest leader of the Re
publican party in the last campaign,
and the latter held the purse-strings
and through the Craftsmanship of the
National Committee directed the
course Of the "machine' for the elec
tion Of Garfield, which Conkling is
now denounced for claiming the right

ture benefit as he used it for the bene.

denunciation is not deserved. Bur
We do say that it was deserved befor,

In reference to Dorsey it might no

Of the Star Boute frauds. But it wa

The Shooting Of President Garfield.
An event little lees startling than the assas-
sination OF President Lincoln, and hardly less
momentous In Its possible results, occurred In
the waiting room of the Baltimore and Potomac
railway station In this city this morning.
President Garfield had arrived there at twenty
five minutes past zine o'clock. to take the lin
ited express train. which was to leave five
minutes later, for the purpose Of joining his
family at Long Branch, when he was shot
twice by person standing In the crowd which
usually assemblies on the arrival and departure
Of trains. Full particulars of the deplorable
tragedy will be found elsewhere lin this issue,
together with such later Incidents and details
as have since transpired.
This dreadful affair must be productive of
grave and varied thoughts and suggestions,
Its most startling feature Is the fact that as
sassination has come to be a recognized mode
OF reaching those for the time being called to
the head OF our government. Laying aside its
effects upon the incumbent Of that high place
and these Immediately connected with him.
and without attaching much Importance
TO the character or purpose of the murderer,
the fact that two Presid ents have fallen by the
bullet OF an assassin, raises the question
whether the simple surroundings AMI quiet
modes OF life heretofore adopted by our PrasI-
dents as consistent with the genius OF our In.
situations and becoming TO the head of re-
publican form OF government, are, after ALL
wise and sufficiently safe. If the Chief Execu-
tive of the nation Is to be target for the bullet
OF lunaties, disappointed asprants for Office or
political malcontents, Il will be necessary to
surround the Office and Its incumbent by more
formal and efficient means Of protection tnac
have yet been devised or thought necessary
In the case OF President Garfield, as In that Of
President Lincoln. political disappointment ap-
pears to have been the inspiring motive Of the
assassin. This circumstance makes the AFT air
the more deplorable and impressive, and 1t Is
this feature Of the subject that will deserve
and doubtless receive the most serious consid-
Grafton. That the act In this instance was that
OF single individual, PROBABLY a lunatlc,
doubtless without accompllces, does not take
away from the situation any of its dangerous
probabilities Indeed, that fact may be said 10
rather add to them.
At this writing the probable fate OF the Presi.
dent cannot be accurately foretold. There are
however, ample grounds for apprehending the
most serious result. But this can be said:
Whatever his fate may &c, that distinguished
gentleman and his family will have the pre-.
found respect, the deep sympathy and the
fervent prayers not OF the American people
alone, but those OF every civilized nation on the
face OF the earth.
