The Washington Post pertinently r.

The Washington Post pertinently re-
marks:
The grinding greed of monopolists, ably
seconded by such legislation as they see
fit to demand of their servants in Con-
press, is responsible for the dangerous
communistic spirit that was so apparent
in the labor demonstration in New York
on the 9th.
One Of the two things must happen in
this country before many years. We
shall either have our government changed
into military despotism strong enough
to keep labor under foot while it is being
plundered, or the present tendency will
be reversed, compelling capital to submit
to fair terms, and giving labor its just
proportion of the joint earnings Of labor
and capital.
We have to say that there is q great
deal OF truth in that. II is a very un-
pleasant truth. It suggests some very
iisagreeable consequences. II the Re-
publican party, with its monopolistic
tendencies and its repressive ideas con-
tinues in power q few years longer, the
country will be face to face with revolu-
tion. The Republican party is sowing
the seed that will ripen into the com
mune, and perchance q bloody harvest
Its leaders are blinded by their own greed
and their own bigotry. It Is time the
people were warned Of the consequences
that will certainly overtake the country
The remedy is In the hands OF the peo
ple, and 1t should be applied before j
Is too late. The Republican party should
be retired from power while there Is We
time. Plain Dealer.

oscar Wilds on Children and Flowers

In conversation with Tribune re-
porter recently, Oscar Wilde said that
the most interesting reading that he had
seen in the newspaper lately had been
the letters in the Tribune describing the
excursions of the Fresh Air Children.
He quoted from several of the letters the
savings of the children, and said in that
connection. 1.-THE best thing that has
been said about flowers I believe since
Christ talked about the lilies, was said
to me by child in the streets Of Lon

OPENING STREETS.
Now the Time to do it Before Property Gets

Now the Time to do IL Before Property Gets
too High.
AT this time, while property is cheaper
than it will be next year, or any year IN the
future, and while so many buildings are
going up and The city improving in every
direction and property becoming daily
more and more valuable, the city council
should look ahead and see that prominent
thoroughfares are opened out in such
nlaces and directions as will be OF future
benefit to the whole city, and where it is
now evident already that such streets must
be opened sooner or later. Remember that
Sufficient until the day is the evil
thereof and delays are dangerous, and in
this case most expensive, and it is short
sighted policy indeed to put OIL until TO-
morrow that which should be done to-day.
Asjan instance in point we are told that
there is no cross street between Main ana
Elm streets, in East Dallas, from Leonard
street to the east corporation line, ois-
lance of LOO feet, and this is
a great oversight and should be remedied
as soon as possible, while there is vacant
territory that can be purchased TO open
Floyd street. Again, between Elm street
and Bryan street there is no cross street
from Sycamore to HARDWOOD street, o dis
lance of 600 feet, q great inconvenience to
ali parties living south of Elm street who
may wish to go out on Oleander, Masten,
or San Jacinto streets, or vice versa. Har-
wood street, south of St. Louis street should
be opened to the south corporation line,
and the city charter provides fully the man
ner of having property condemned and the
cost thereof assessed upon adioiuing prop,
erty benefited, and the cost to the city will
be mere-trifie in comparison with the
given benefit to the whole community. We
hope the city council Will see the impor,
lance of moving in this matter. at once and
open these streets now before they are built
upon and closed forever.
