The widely known and widely honOred rector
of Grace Church has been elected Assistant
Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Diocese of
New-York. Many names were before the
convention, and the rector of Trinity re-
ceived strong support until his name was
withdrawn. There have been abundant signs
of strong undercuuent of feeling among
EpiscOpalians in the city over the question of
filing this position, but the opinion will be
general that no better choice could have been
made.
As the head of Grace Church DR.. Potter has
originated and carried on an extensive
and admirable system of schools and missions,
charities which were described in detail not
long ago in THE TRIBUNE. No church in the
city is the centre of a more varied and effect
i've organization of beneficence than this large
and wealthy body. The loss of such a rector
will be sorely felt by the parish, but the COM
munity win gain by his transfer to field
where his opportunities for benefting his
fellow men will be still broader than at preFent.

Is USUAL.

Of course, Judge Hoadly is going to be
elected, in the opinion of most Democratic
journals. A Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor in Ohio always is elected, in their opin-
ion, about the first of October or sooner. There
was not the slightest doubt, we remember, ac-
col ding to The Nelo- York World, The Gin
cinnaf Enquirer and other journals of that iik
that Governor Allen was elected about October
l, 1875, though Governor Hayes afterward
kindly discharged the duties of the Office
Governor Ewing was elected past all peradven-
ture, as late as one day prior to the election in
1879, but Governor Foster was good enough to
do all the work for him. Nor was there Dem
ocratic journal anywhere which did not trium-
pEanty elect Mr.. Bookwalter in September,
1881, though it has always been mystery that
Governor Foster contrived to stick to the place
just as if no election 10y the people had been
held. 1t is the standing misfortune of Dem-
ocratic candidates in that State That their
friends always elect them about fortnight
before the whole people vote on the subject.
Afterward, by some mysterious fatality, they
get Republicans 20 take all the abuse and the
worry of the Ofice--to say nothing of the power
and the pay.
In view of these facts, we assume that Judge
Hoadly is pemocratically elected. The Dem
ocratic journals all have the news, and nobody
else, aud they are quite too cock-sure to he
mistaken. We infer that he will calmly retire
to his law-ofice, after October 8. and await
further fees from the Sage Of Cipher Alley in
the matter of Cronin of Oregon. The ana

TTRN on Tile LIGHTS.

Only those persons who visit the Park habtu-
ally and frequently are aware how rapidly the
work of defacing and disfguring the peoples
pleasure-g ground is going on. Since the Com
missioners began to transact their business in
secret session no warning of any mcditated
brutality is given, and the mischief is only
discovered after it is completed or well under
way. The public wranges of these worthless were
disgraceful enough, but their secret councils are
more dangerous. Occasionally, however, they
open their doors and advise the public of some
threatened outrage. For example, at Wednes-
days meeting it WAS announced that stables
for the dromedary and other beasts we're to be
set ND in one of the most charming meadows OF
the Park. The reason assigned was that the
people living near the Arsenal objected to the
present location of the menagerie. THIS is the
old story. When Peter b. Sweeny filed the
chair which MI Ollihe now adorns he reported
to Mayor Hall that the gentlemen on the
Avenue had a right to an uDObstructed view
from their residences THAT they had paid for
q sfull and free view of the Park. There
fore. openings were cut through the surround
ing tree belt, just as has been advocated by
Superintendent Jones and the Commissioners
of to-day. And now when some gentleman on
the Avenue objects TO the bears, the Board at
once decides to clutter up with dens and cages
a fair stretch of rolling greensward within a
wooded border and transform scene of un-
sophisticated natural beauty into a fenced and
painted show-ground.
This is considerably worse, because on more
impudent scale, than the saltwater vista.
Not one of the Commissioners has ever been
charged with possessing any Taste or training
In landscape art, and yet revolutionary changes
in the structure of the Park are undertaken by
some one Who is deysing the new plan I?
What landscape architect is advising and super
vising this menagerie scheme? The people
have a right to know this, and they need to
know it now, for at this same last meeting the
Board coolly demanded of the city 1907, 300
This vast sum of money intelligenty expended
would be ample for all proper construction and
maintenance, but there must be enormous waste
when such sum is confded to men who have
no comprehension of what park is or what 1t
is for. In the hands of ignorance it will be
worse than wasted. IL had better be thrown
into the river than given to men who viii use it
to dishgure and destroy what they are APP
pointed to conserve and maintain. There is
Just one thing worse than ignorance In the con-
duct of city department, and although the

lario., which some persons call the Presidential
fever. will have been expelled from his system
by doctors more wise and more mighty than
any in Philadelphia. On account OF the vast
Importance of his private practice, MI Hoadiy
will doubtless induce Judge Foraker 10 look
after the duties of Governor of the State In bis
stead inst az Mr. Tilden modestly substituted
President Hayes for himself. But wise and
witty Democratic organs will continue to speak
of Governor Hoadlyp all the sar1e, even after
Governor Foraker has completed the term of
Office, and may perhaps call upon the people
to rise in their might and punish the great
wrong of 1888. by clecting Hoadly again about
October l. 1891. 1t is little unfortunate
and odd that our Democratic friends contrlve
to elect their men quite so early. III they could
school themselves to wait until election day,
and to elect their candidates. then, perhaps they
might occasionally get one to perform the
duties of the Office.
The valuable news that we are now getting
about the progress of the Democratic campaign
in Ohio bears the hallmark of eminent re-
spectability. 1t comes from those trustworthy
puryeyDrs of news who havenever failed to
furnish us with supply of that sort just before
every Ohio election. A person OF gambling
propensites would stake his existence that it
must be tue this time, because it has been
false so many times before, Just as he would
confidently bet his last cent on the white,
after the fatal black had fallen to him twenty
times in succession from the revolving wheel.
Men do sometimes go out and kindly shoot
themselves, after an evening spent in this in
teresting experiment at the gaming table.
But Democratic folly is less gracious, and will
not rid the world of itself. About two weeks
before the next important election IN Ohio, we
shall surely hear again the voice of the Demo
cratic prophets, crying in chorus, "a Demo-
cratic victory in Ohio is now absolutely GER

PILL RO1D UIIIKYERv

One thing seems to trouble Leon Albeit, the
Democratic candidate for Governor OF New
jersey. Some one has called him railroad
LAWYER The circumstance that an eminent
Democrat whom he calls by name is against
him Mr.. Albeit tries to bear with equa-
nlmity, and also the circumstance that Mr..
@Willy Walter Phelps" of whom he speaks
quite costemptuously, opposes him. Possibly
the least and worst reputation Mr. Phelps has
ever gained may seem to him rather preferable
to the great reputation Mr. Albeit has
achieved, as a leader of political bummers and
"a postmaster in the arts of political knavery.
But the main thing with him is that some
people have suspected him of leaning toward
corporations. 81 am a lawyer" he says sand
Gas q lawyer | am obliged to take railroad fees
"and railroad cases"
1t is not supposed that Mr.. Albeit is starving.
In fact his friends whisper that he is going to
be elected, because money will be no object
in his campaign. But lawyers who are not very
rich, lawyers who are very poor. IN fact, have
been known TO refuse cases which seemed to
them dishonest dishonOrable, or contrary to
public interest. LAWYERS of that stamp, to be
sure do not often succeed as Tombs shysters,
or in defending notorious criminals. III Ar.
Albeit puts himself on a level with the other
so-called lawyers who cannot afford to refuse
fees, however bad the case may be, 1t is his own
doing That he is and has been some sort OF a
railroad lawyer is admitted.
There are gentlemen who are not ashamed OF
that designation. Mr. Chauncey Depew WAS
not afraid to be known as gentleman who had
defended great corporation, when he was a
candidate for Senator of the United States.
Judge Dillon, though constantly employed by
powerful corporation, has never been ashamed
to have the fact known. How is it that there is
difference Perhaps these other gentlemen
have never done anything as railroad lawyers,
that they have occasion to blush for. But MIR.
Albeit evidently feels aggreved because some
have referred to his legal intercourse with cor
porations III New-Jersey. He best knows why.
The short of it is that Mr.. Albeit pretends to
be what he is not. lie claims to be a candidate
of the people, and he is only candidate of the
liquor saloons and the political strikers. He
claims to be an opponent of corporate agrees
sions, and he is only very convenient rail-
road lawyer, whose election as Governor OF
New-Jersey would just now suit any great cor
poration inclined to crooked dealing

FACTS ABCUT RECENT CALAMITIES.

An official report of the Italian Government
states that the mortality caused by the recent
earthquake in Ischia has been grossly exS
acgerated. The number of lives lost was
1890, and the number of persons seriously
injured 374. The mortality, terrible as IL Is
admitted to have been in the official report, Is
only one-third or one-quarter OF what 1t was
originally reported to have been. Compareu
with previous earthquakes in Europe IL was
an insignificant catastrophe. The loss OF lie
at Lisbon has never been estimated as less
than 10000, and as many as 100000 persons
persisted in Calabria by successive earthquake
shocks in 1888. A century ago, however, the
mortality from such catastrOphes was largely
a matter OF guesswork, whereas now 1t Is
ascertained with painstaking care by Governs
ment officials or scientific commissions.
Ii is probable that the loss of life by vol"
canic eruptions and sea-waves in Java and
Sumatra has also been largely overestimated
The earliest accounts of the calamity bore
internal evidence of exaggeration, and 1t was
manifestly impossible for any eyewitness to
form an accurate idea of the extent OF the
physical changes that had been wrought or
the waste of human life with which those dis
turbances had been attended. While admitting
the need of caution and scepticism in receiv-
ing the recent accounts of this great volcanic
outburst, Nature is disposed to pronounce 1t the
grandest and most destructive phenomenon oil
the kind occurring in modern times. 1t con-
siders the loss of life at present matter OF
pure conjecture, and evidently rejects the
elastic estimates that have thus far been made
The most remarkable physical features Of the
catastrophe to which it directs attention are
these the election of enormous quantities OF
fragmentary materials, producing clouds OF
finely commnuted dust that darkened the
heavens and covered the surface OF the sur
rounding seas changes in the form OF kra-
katoa Island, and the formation of a new line
of volcanic cones on assure opened IN the
sea-bed and the occurrence OF earthquake
shocks and sea-waves of great destructlveness.
1t is probable, however, that the magnitude
of these physical changes, like the estimates
of mortality, has been grossly exaggerated.
1t is to be hoped that the Dutch officials IN
the island will order Il survey OF the channels
and thorough investigation of the conse-
quences of the volclnic ernpuons and subse-
quent earthquakes.

ANOTHER THIEF IN A CITY OFFICE.


These are not comfortable days for the tax
payers of this city. 1t is not long ago that
two cases of extensive thefts of public funds
were discovered in the Dock Depart-
ment. When the well known politician
Edward Gale died, it was found that
he had been stealing public money for years.
Only q few weeks ago the Carroll frauds IN
the Controllers Office were exposed. Then the
Department of Public Works had its turn, and
it was made known that two of its trusted
employees were no better than hlghwaymen.
Close upon the heels of this disclosure comes the
arrest of a clerk in the Bureau of Tax Arrears,
who has been for long time putting IN his
own pocket money which belonged to the city
treasury How far does this corruption extend 7
What Department will be the next to prove
rotten?
Our Democratic friends keep themselves
black in the face with their outcries against
the "rascals" in the Federal service. The
government of this city is i'll Democratic
hands. Is 1t good model for the great de-
partments at Washington? The credit of New
York must suffer unless the most thOrou gh
measures for the purging of our municipal ser
vice are taken. The Democratic factions that
govern us have been trying to unite at Buffalo.
Their union, and the strengthening OF their
hold upon the city government, would prove
serious menace to the prosperity of this COM

chinery to make themselves felti They must
