RALLROADS IND GOHERNMENT.

When William Walter Phelps opened his
speech in the New Jersey Republican COnven-
ton, not with empty platitudcs, but with
singing rebuke Of railroad for contliving the
defeat of worthy Republican candidate, every
one felt that the remarks were Just, though
great many thin-wasted politicians felt that
they would never have said any such thing. 1t
was not exactly the sort of speech that a timor-
Gus and lodging Office seeker would have made
or approved But it afterwards appeared to
represent the wishes of the majority in that
convention, aud it will be found to express the
sentiments of thousands of Republicans and
other good citizens in every State.
The relations Of the Government with the
railroads are unfortunately confused by the dis
tribution of the powers and division OF the re-
sponsibihties of government. The National
Government can hardly regulate railroads
within State. The State can hardly apply
effective and reasonable restraints to railroads
which run partly in and partly out OF the State.
A conspicuous cause OF the unsatisfactory
working of railroad laws in Western States is
that the important roads running from one
State into another, and engaged largely IN
transporting freight across several States, can
not be satisfactorily subjected to local laws.
Nevertheless, the desire to impose some re-
straint, and the opposing desire to resist legis-
latlve interference, have made the railroad
question an intensely practical and important
one in nearly all parts of tho country. Seek
ing to secure privileges or Ito resist encroach-
inents, the railroad companies have welded
great political power in many States, and in
some have become so strong that one hardly
knows which is truly sovereign, the State or
the railroad.
| There is possible wide difference of opinion
among intelligent and upright men, as to the
| nature and extent of restrictive measures which
may properly be applied to railroad companies.
But there can be very little difference as to one
thing. Intelligent and upright men must agree
that railroad has no business to own or to run
q State government. an election, a Legislature,
| or an executive. The interference OF the cor
poration in politics. whatever its aims, can
hardly fail TO be corrupting and demorallzing,
dangerous to popular rights, and harmful to
the company. If the people cannot be trusted
to do what is right without manipulation or
trickery, the one thing certain is that any cor
rupt attempt to influence their action would be
UNNECESSARILY more dangerous. 1t would breed
a swarm of strikers and blackmailers, who
would fssten on the corporation on any and
every .pretext or without any, and it would en-
gender host of demagogues, whose principal
aim and endeavor would be to enkindle popular
feeling against the corporations. III there is
any State in which corporation has once ac-
| quired the bad habit of running elections or
buying Legislators. the chances are ten TO one

S1VE THE ACKNOWLEDGES.

The Mohawk River is said to be lower than it
has been for many years. and the Upper Hudson
has rarely been so shallow. This is one item in
the general report of failing streams and dried
M springs which comes from various parts OF
the district over which the long drouth has pre-
vailed but the fact of interest in regard to the
rivers above-named is that their flow has this
year shrunk to smaller volume than 1t has
done in former years when the drOuth was quite
as pitiless. This means that the destruction of
the North Woods is beginning to tell visbly
upon the navigation of the Hudson. There Is
no longer any need of argument TO prove the
destructive eject of stripping of their forest
growth from the high lands where rivers head.
The a priori reasons for experimenting that
disaster must follow such imprOvldence have
been so often aud so convinciugly set forth
that every intelligent man is now familiar with
them and appreciates their force. More than
one abandoned hfTbor testifies to what has
already happened in historic time. If the earth
which covers the stone skeletons OF the Adir-
ondack Mountains is not to be swept down into
the bed of the river and deposited IN bars at its
mouth, the woods must be protected against
torch and axe. .
The Adirondack Commission was created to
devise means of escape from these aud other
dangers, and the people of the State with rare
unanimity approve of its appointment by the
Legislature. They feel that the interests ut
stake are vital. They demand a thorough and
comprehensive examination Of the whole ques-
ton. There is no danger that the action of the
Commission and of the Legisl AZURE will fail of
support on the ground that it is too sweeping
and decisive. No tempOrizing policy will sat-
isfy the public feeling. No individual interest
will be allowed to stand in the way of the gen
eral good. Some strong, positive recommends
ton is what the people are looking for first, and
then some prompt and forcible enactment by
our lawmakers. The North Woods must be
pleseIYe1.

GET THE BEST.

THE SUNDAY TRIBUNE will hereafter be soid
at three cents a copy.
This is the first time in New-York that the
unusually expensive Sunday paper has been
furnished at the same price with the other
issues of the Daily and T He TRIBUNE stands
alone in doing it now. The uniformity III
prjce will simplify our business and the re-
duction viii place the paper within reach oil
greatly larger circle of readers. Its high char
acter will be maintained in every respect anu
il we should ever fud that the price now hxed
will not warrant the present and an even
greater outlay upon onr columns, we should not
hesitate to put It up again. Whatever hap
mems, THE TRIBUNE will maintain its night 10
the distinction it has long enjoyed Of the largest
circulation among the best people.
The SUNDAY TRIBUNE has already received
an unexpected and unusual support 1t is the
Youngest and has been the highest priced Of all
our issues yet from the second number 1t has
been constant and increasing source OF profit
During the present year, in spite OF the pre-

and Sunday but the last has been particularly
favored. Early this year The SUNDAY TRIB-
uNE, for the first time passed the Daily In cir

We can keep THE TRIBUNE up to its highest
standard, and furnish every issue at three cents

CHANCE FOR THE BAR Association.
The Bar Association of this city has appar-
emily AZ many critics within its own doors as
outside. Many of its members say that they
retain their connection with it chiefly because
of its library facilities, and that they nave
given up all hope of seeing 1T accomplish any
positive results in the directions to which 1t de-
voted so much attention on its first organlza-
tion-the securing OF good judicial nominations,
and the prosecution and dIsbarment of lawyers
who have been detected IN fraudulent practices.
The habits of the COURTROOM and Office appear
to cling TO the lawyers club, and when the,ques-
ton of furnishing an unscruDulous attorney
comes up, they hesitate to take any vigorous
steps lest the action should look like an attempt
to strike down a legal brother, or else they look
upon the matter with indifference as being
case in which they are not RETAINED" ana
therefore have no interest. On the subject ot
judicial nominations, the association Is placldly
Inactive. Political interests or political am
billions interfere so conspicuOusly with all OF
tie society's action that 1t frequently comes
down TO a question OF party vote.
AT its next meeting in October there will he
an opportunty for the association to prove
whether it will continue to occupy this equvo-
cal position. Charges will be presented
against several attorneys accused OF fraudulent
practices in divorce cases, and an effort VIII be
made TO secure some action that will insure the
selection of fit men as candidates for four
iudgeships to be voted for at the next election
Several prominent lawyers of the city have
taken this subject actively in hand. They say
they propose to make this a test meeting as to
the purposes and spirit of the association AS
whole.
