curing quick as well as cheap transit to and
from the East.
The conclusion of so advantageous an ar
rangement with M. de Lesseps is diplomatic
achievement which will give MIR. Gladstone's
Government additional prestige. 1t Is posi-
tive success that will commend itself TO the
practical Judgment of all classes ana receive
immediate recognition from commercial cor
porations, boards of trade and ship-ownerS
organizations. 1t is directly in accord with
the commercial interests of the nation, and is q
logical consequence Of General Wolseleys
campaign and the abstention OF France from
Intervention during the crisis In Egypt. me
Suez Canal has virtually become an English
ditch, for NJ. de Lesseps has conceded every
point for which Euglishmen bave been clam
oring. The details OF the projected construc-
ton of a new canal have not jet been made
public. Mr.. Gladstone indicates loan OF
$40. 900. 900 from England at 3lo per cent and
fresh concessions of land from the Khedive.
IF the second ditch be dug without an increase
in the capital stock, the British Government
will retain its two-fifths interest in the whole
enterprise. II the capital be- doubled, share
owners will naturally be offered the pr ivilege
of doubling their investment, aud the BRUSH
Government, which purchased in 1876 from
the Khndve 176,602 shares for something
less than SIC, O0O,000, aud now advances
SAC, 900 900 as loan, will probably take ad-
vantage of its proprietary rights. But what
ever may bs the financial details of the new
arrangement, il is a distinct and important
success for q Government which expected
when IL entered upon Office to do its best work
at hume, but has actually accomplished 1t
abroad.

DEMOCRATIC ORGAN OUT OF ZINE

DEMOCRATIC ORGAN OUT OF LINE.
The Rochester Union is the organ. IL Is OPP
posed to the prison contract system. 1t calls
upon the friends of "prison labor reform to
takr steps toward making their power felt in
the coming fall campaign" 1t speaks of the
villainous and ruinous character of the contract
system.n IL declares that every State officer
as we'll as every Senator and Assemblyman
elected next November should be sound on
this question.
Our contemporary must have short memory
or it certainly would not be found thus consp'c-
uously departing from nariy orthodoxy. Has
it forgotten that the Democracy OF this State
made record upon the convict labor question
in the Legislature of last winter-a record de-
monstrating that the party believes that the
convict labor question is good thing TO
dodge The Democratic State Convention that
met at Syracuse year ago placed an anti
prison contract plank in its platform. But it
evidently meant nothing. The Democratic
Legislature proved it to be a sham by deibcr-
ately deciding to shirk the Issue. Instead of
passing bill doing away with the convict labor
system it resorted to the subterfuge of submit
ting the question to the people. The DemOc-
racy had been asserting for many years that it
had deep and earnest convictions in regard to
convict labor. But jnst as soon as it was
afforded golden opportunity to act upon any
deep and earnest convictions that 1t might
possess il simply fiunked" to the best of its
ability. Unless the coming Democratic State
Convention is prepared to indict the late
Democratic Legislature it will say in the plat
form:
ffo,
that the convict labor question In the future as IN 1888
ought be carefully lodged by AL those called upon to
represent the Democracy of New-York.
On reelection The Onion cannot but realize
that il is very much out of line. Will it take
heed to its steps, or continue to advocate anti
prison contract ideas ut the expense of practical
Democracy

TIE sUsz CANAL AGREEMENT.

Nj. de Lesseps has reluctantly accepted
the logic of events. He has made au agree
ment with the British Government whereby
the Suez Canal passes under the control OF the
Power which is now responsible for the general
administration of Egypt. The scheme for con-
structing second canal received such power
full support from English financial corporations
and excited SO much enthusiasm that the
French engineer became alarmed. He now
makes three con cossons to the British Govern
mont which cannot fall to be received with
satisfaction by merchants and shippers and by
the nation at large. These concessions are the
construction of a new canal parallel to the first
she reduction of tolls, and the appointment OF
an English surveyor of traffic. The necessity
tor new water Way has become apparent, for
tho business OF the canal has doubled since
1879 and the facilities Of traDsit are now un-
equal to the requirements of commerce, block
adcs being OF frequent occurrence. A reduce
ton Of tolls Is the legitimate result Of an
enormous increase in the. bulk Of traffic, and ID
substantial gain for the nation which already
controls four-dfths of tho carrying trade
through the canal. The appointment of an
English surveyor Of traffic gives the Govern
n,ent, which holds direct proprietary rights
In the canal by virtue Of the purchase Of shares
under Lord BeacDnsfela's administration, q
voice in tho general management of tho enter
prise. OF the three concessions, the last will
appeal most strongly to national pride, while
toe others will be heartily approved by msr-
chants and ship-ownsrA who are bent upoa So

Tantah, where eight deaths from cholera are
now reported, is the centre Of the Egyptian
railway system and city OF considerable i'm
portance. 1t lies between the Rosetta and
Damietta branches of the Nile, and is some
thing over third Of the way from either Alex
andria or Damietta to Cairo. 1t marks the FUR
thest point yet reached by the disease since
the outbreak in Damictts, refugees having
carried the infection up the river to Sherbin,
Mansurah and Samanud, and finally inland
along The railway to this new centre of popu-
lation. While Europe and America may escape
q visitation OF this dreadful scourge this year,
there is every probability in favor of its max
ing great ravages in Egypt. The towns and
settlements there are notorious for filth and
general uncleaDliness, and if there be one
thing on which cholera thrives better than on
any other it ia dirt.

The second plank in the platform adopted
by the Republican State Convention at Harris
burg, Penn, will attract much attention and
provoke no little discussion. 1t declares that
the surplus in the National Treasury, after
paying the National debt as fast as posi-
Bile, should be distributed among the diff rent
States of the Union, to be applied to the re-
duction of local taxation. While such plan
is novel, it is not entirely without precedent.
1t has been so slightly discussed, however,
that it is impossible to say how it will proba-
bly, be regarded by the people after rehec-
ton.

After the Federal Grand Jury had made a
presentment in regard to tho shocking state ut
affairs IN Ludlow Street Jail, little necessity for
further investigation remained. The next
proper step would have been the presentation
to the Governor of charges against the Sheriff,
who Ia of course responsible for the condition
Of the Jail. It was matter of course that after
the psrsentment la the Federal Court was made
known the jail would be improved for awhile.
It is not strange, therefore, that the Grand
Jury of this county yesterday found the build
inp in Ludlow-st In tolerable condition. The
fact that the work of cleaning was not finished
till a. IN. was not denied by the Warden, but
he said he had been unable ~ get money to pay
for it before Possibly tina cxcase is better
than uone; but probably it is not. The newly
whitewashed walls in the Jail were called to the
attention of the Grand Jurors. 1t looks as IL
the Sheriff, the Warden and their friends hope
to get the wh;tewash extended to their manage
ment.
The friendly relations between France and
England may be strained, but there will prob
ably be NO rupture. The Republic Is Just now
In an exasperatsd state of mind because Of her
neighbors soccess In the Egyptian imbrsRlio
and because of her own humiliating relation
to that business; but she will not be foolish
enough to 20 to war with the British. The
people will tolerate conquest abroad; but they
want no war at home just now. 1t ia likely,
therefore, that after good deal of vainglorious
eloquence in the Chamber of Deputies about
the dignity and honor Of glorious France the
French leaders will have the common sense and
wisdom to make tho required explanations and
Preparations for tho insults which Admiral
Pierre offered to the English In Madagascar.
