THE WAY TO Build THE NEW AQUEDUCT
This is a good time for the people of New
York to warch this Legislature, and to en-
deavor by every proper means to influence Its
action for the right. The bill introduced by
Senator DAILY yesterday, providing for the
construction of q new aqueduct. is the most
important measure Of the session, 80 far as
the interests of this community are concerned.
No pains on the part OF the Legislators and
the people can DO too great to make it sure
that the plan adopted for enlarging our
water supply is the soundest and best
possible. We have had careful. intelligent
and thorough report from the commission
of citizens appointed by the Mayor Now 1T is
matter of the gravest moment that COM
mission Of the right sort shall be made up to
take charge az the work. Ii this immense
undertaking is suffered to fall into the
hands of jobbers and patronage mongers,
it will prove the monumental steal of the
century. The taxpayers OF the city and
State have suffered grievously from the
methods pursued in building the State Capt.
toll and the Brooklyn Bridge but here is
a scheme which in its opportunities for cor
ruption and its temptations to thieves far sur
passes either. The estimates for the new aque-
duct, dam and reservoir make up the stagger-
ing total of 5000, 600, and these estimates
are made on the basis of honest con-
struction. So at the start we confront
q certain outlay-even with economy and pru-
dence-much greater than that for the Tweed
Court House, the Bridge OF the Capitol. With
the extravaganza, the leaks and the robbery
that have made the burdens Of these three
structures SO heavy. We might expect that the
twentieth century would open with our aque-
duct still incomplete and q crushing addition
of $50, 100000 TO our city debt.
The report Of the citizens commission re-
commended in effect that the work should be
put in the hands Of an bipartisan, unpreju-
diced, impartial and disinterested commission.
THE TRIBUNE heartily approved that recon-
mendation, and insisted upon 1t as
the very foundation rock ON which this
construction should be based. Repeatedly
before the report was made public, and
on the day on which 1t appeared, this
journal urged in the strongest terms that the
work could not safely be entered upon in any

THE DYNAMITE SCIENCE.

There is "A new science with national schools
in every quarter of Europe. II is the sclebce Oh
Dynamite. Each days budget OF cable dis
matches contains evidence of the startling pro-
gress which its pupils are making in their edu-
cation. fortnight ago premature explosion
of chemicals led to the discovery of an organ
lied community of Anarchists in Belgium.
about the same time the Spanish detectives
arrested twelve hundred members of a secret
society in Andalnsia, known IA "The Black
Hand.n on charges of completely in various
aprarian murders and dynamite outrages. In
Paris. Lyons and other quarters of France, the
Socialists have been displaying tnwOnted actv-
ity. so that even NJ. ROchefort has been forced
to appeal to the police for protection from vio-
lence. In Geneva, society has been proclaimed
an organized infamy by formidable assem-
hlage of Communists. In England, the crude
experiments in dynamite tried ut the Liverpool
Town Hall, the Stafford Barracks, the Mansion
House and the Office of the leading newspaper
have been followed by terrific explosion in
the Government buildings. So successful was
this final attempt to diffuse alarm that import
ance Is now attached to the wildest rumors.

ST. Petersburg, and the Governor of Moscow
has received warning that the Krenlin will oe

The dynamite fever seems to have become cpl
demic in Europe. Governments are harassed
with secret dread. A feeling of suspiciousness
and panic Is diffused through communities
that are ordinarily tranquil. In every quarter
there are signs of social unrest. Everywhere
there is chilling sense of danger.
There Is little indeed in this melancholy er-
hibit to promote faith IN any comfortable gos-
pei of political optimism. Yet it would be q
grave error to infer from the destructive ten
denotes and infectious fear witnessed abroad
that the world Is any worse than 1t was. This
is not the first time that the dangerous classes
have awakened TO consciousness of the
wretcbedness of their lot and of the glarng inc
qualities OF the social order. Ancient Rome

The erection Of several apartment houses in this
city of unprecedented height has provoked the in
quiry whether IL would be judicous to set any limit
10 the dimensions of such structure. the subject
has been debated by some of the officers connected
with the Board of Health. They allege that where
buildings are carried SO high that tho sun never
peneirates 10 the. street below, powerful element
in the laws of hyeiene is Withdrawn. In this cOun-
try we have never adopted the law OF easements rs

air over the adjacent ground, and the law will not
allow buildings to be erected TO a height which
will intersect an angle OF 400 from the lowest OF
such windows. In the City of London this princi-
pie has been relaxed recently by some judges. and
especially by the late Sir George Jesse, Master Of
the Rolls and of the judges of the Court OF
Appeal. Still tue old comm0u-law maxim holds
good so to use your own as not TO Injure an
