rho Veto.

While the grounds assumed by the Presi-
dent in bis veto Of the Chinese bill may be
technically tcnable, from the standpoint Of
the New England thcorist and the cheap
labor monopolists, they will prove wholly
incompatible with the first great law"
of the public welfare. Whether the Presi-
dent, in view of his relation to public af.
fairs, could have done. less than interpret
the bill as he did with reference TO existing
treaties, il is hardly worth while TO in
quirc. The practical question involved is
one of social ethics, and no form of treaty
or fiction Of international courtesy can
alter the logic of facts as they exist.
The facts, briefly, are that American
Labor has made up its mind that the un-
restricted immigration Of Chinese is men,
ace TO its interests; not merely on the
Pacific Slope, but at large. Having so
decided, the vast masses of voters who
make up the Labor element of American
society have determined to force an ex-
preston of their views in legislation, and
the bill which the President has vetoed
was the response of the legislative branch
of the Government to that demand.
Under these circumstances the veto simply
adds another factor to the already we'll
defined issue between American Capital,
which wants cheap labor, and American
Labor, which wants good wages.
Chinese immigration is calculated to
supply the cheap labor which is the dcsder-
atum of Capital. Therefore the Labor ele-
ment will view the veto as an espousal OF
the cause of Capital by the President. 1t
is idle to suppose that the workingms IN
who oppose Chinese immigration will
trouble themselves to follow out the Presi-
dents argument. They will simply view
the act of veto as a whole and condemn |,
as an assault upon then interests. That is
all. But it is enough.

There is a vehicle In Washington city which
is worthy OF the attention of visitors. II ranks
with the unfinished Washington monument
and should be seen, II possible before the his
toric buckskin trousers OF the Father OF tho
Country, which hang in such a belittllng and
reproachful way I'm the Patent ONCE. II Is the
private carriage OF Benjamin H. Brewster the
Attorney General of the Republic of the United
States. Mr.. Brewster is a very fair Phila-
delphia lawyer with New Jersey ancestry,
but IL is a weakness with him to believe that
he has an aristocratic not to say noble, lineage.
Like the snob, Pierrepont, whom we sent to
England as Minister few years ago, he has
not been able to prove 1t by the records, but,
as Brother Beecher said Of his belief In a
future iife' "he feels 1t in his bones" 3
This particular carriage has yellow wheels
an especial mark of nobility In England-and
in due time, we presume, It will be inscribed
with the ducal insignia OF strawberry leaves.
1t has on each door armorial bearings rs large
as the bottom of a saucepan. There are besants
and golpes on gulcs, and a green dragon jes-
SAINT shaking his paw at pair OF red-eyed
New Jersey grasshoppers adossed' 1t Is un-
the Heralds' College, and that 1t has strict ref
erence to Mr.. Brewsters family, which has
never at any time since the days of the Nor
man conquest been entirely destitute of crest.
The fiamboyant covers which adorn Mr.. Brew
ster's carriage horses, and which are insepa-
rable from them, no matter what the state of
the weather, also bear the knightly device en-
broidered in rich colors. There is profusion
of kingly yellow and royal black In all the out
fittings Of this gorgeous vehicle, and when 1t
is surmounted with n driver all cockaded, liv-
cried and gold laced, the spectacle Is some
thing TO amaze.

And now it is Brewster's yellow-wheeled
carriage with armorial bearings on each
door that is catching it. 1t does look q
little odd, that's fact, and the st. Louis

THE Democrats are jubilant over the veto.
They regard 1t as the deathblow TO the Re-
publican party in California, and are conf
dent that no other measure can be introduced
and passed this session to remedy the evil
complained of by all classes Of citizens in the
far West.--EOst.
Then the Democrats have no regard for
the people of the Pacific coast. They are
"jubilant at the prospect of the continu-
ahce of the troubles under which those
people lasor, and in order to gain tenn
porary party advantage are willing, appar-
emily, to see them aggravated. Truly, this
is a question that must commend itself to
the suffering people of that section.

District Estimates and Expenditure.

To the Editor Of The EgejinQ Critic:
For the Improvement Of existing streets and
the extension thereof beyond the present city
for an advance or additional appropriation Of
eight or ten hundred thousand dollars "to be
reimbursed by annual installments from the
District revenues" for the reason, they state,
"that the current revenues OF the District arc
entirely inadequate to accomplish these neces-
saiy Improvements within any reasonable
lime" III the current revenues are entirely
inadequate for the purpose, how are we to
make 'annual reimbursements" therefrom
For instance, II the advance Of one million of
dollars were made exclusively for the I'M
pr0yement OF existing streets, II would not i'm
prove two-ffths OF the streets already specin-
With the remaining million and a.half still on
hand, to be immensely increased by the ap-
parently contemplated extensions beyond the
city Limits and very III large % number Of Snim
cluded in the Commissioners estimates, con-
stantly pressing upon us for "immediate
surplus for "annuai reimbursements ?"
For the fiscal year 1888, the Commissioners
have Already submitted their estimate for
street improvements aggregating 50 $50 ,562.-
65 (See p. 260, Elk. Doc. No. 3, LIST Ses., 47th
Cong.), and out OF that amount, excepting
their errors OF computation, they select 1885,
S25, accepting their error OF footing, for I'M
mediate improvement. lSame Doc, p. 26o.)
Practically, the Commissioners now propose
10 increase their ''schedule of streets requlr-
Ing immediate attention" one million OF dol
lars. Then why not submit a statement
showing in detail the work proposed to be
undertaken by them during the fiscal year
next ensuing and the estimated cost thereof'
as plainly required by the law? The Com
missioners now seem TO have discovered that
''in ORDER TO secure an impartial application
ofthe funds advanced, the selection OF streets
and avenues 10 be improved and extended
could be embodied in the act making the
appropriation" TO men Of ordinary business
qualifications, unaccustomed TO duplicity, this
would long ago have been obvious. Then why
not submit the estimate the law requires?
How else can II be embodied In the act?
Respectfully,
April 4, 1882. S. @. CLARKE.

OUR esteemed correspondent, Mr.. s, G..
Clarke, was slightly mistaken as to the cost
of our District triple-headed Executive. 1t
is true the three Commissioners get $4,000
hut Major Twining is paid S3,s26 by the
United States Government as Major Of
Engineers and $l,174 by the District, to
make his salary equal to those of the other
two Commissioners. But to this sum of
$1l ,174 for Commissioners must be added
T,040 for clerk and messenger hire and
$4,000 for contingent expenses, making
$2l, ,214 the cost of the personal office of
the District Executive, which, without the
figures before us, we will venture to say Is
more than that Of any State in the Union.
Add to these, for they belong t. the
Executive Office, the Auditor and Comp
troller's office, $4,000; Assessors Office,
s23, 600; Collectors Office, $l3,500; Sink
ing-Fund oiice, $500; coroner's office,
$500; Attorneys Office, $1,000; Building
Inspectors office, s7,66O; Property Office,
sl0,s65; Street Inspectors, $1,000; Gas
Inspectors, 5000; Engineers Office, $751;
$50, and general contingent fund $4,000,

all nonsense. He was simply the selection

Arthur to retain the said James as p. NJ.
