this, we learn she went to Bloomington,

in Missoula, Montana, furnishes the
following item, which will be read with
a good deal of pleasure by the friends of

trustees put the Bridge m Charge OF man
with better variety of Judgment. Mr.. Martin
confesses that If the steps had not been there
panic might not have occurred, and he also
confesses that an inclined plane without steps
Is practicable. 1t is absurd to say that an In
cline will be moro dangerous in winter than
these six flights of steps. There are many
streets In this city which are sleeper than this
Strengthened footway would be, and most
people would prefer to take their chances upon
them on an icy day than on SIX successive stair
ways.
The Bridge authorities will make serious
mistake if they allow themselves to take Mr..
Martins view of this matter. Public sentiment,
revealed in many ways, and especially by
floods of letters to THE TRIBUNE and Gother
city papers, demands the obliteratiOn OF the
steps. The people have a right to be heard on
this point. They, and not Mr.. Martin, have
paid for the Bridge. 1t is their highway and
they have right to insist upon its being made
passable. We repeat what we said at the time
of the accident. The best thing to do now Is
to shut up the Bridge to pedestrians and re-
construct the footway without steps. Then II
Mr. Martin refuses to profit by experience, re-
move him and put in his place man who, If
he be not endowed with foresight, shall at
least be capable of hindslght.

WHAT IT rs HERE FOE.

Tho Louisville Courier-Journat inquiries
"What is the Democratic party here for' excep'
to reform the tariff ~
Well, we can think Of half dozen thlngs
that 1t is here for that have nothing Whatever
to do with the tariff.
It is here to give the Republican party some
thing to defeat every four years.
1t is here to excite envy In the breast OF every
American humorst as it discourses OF Central
i-za- -tion, as If it were really mentioning some
thing.
1t is here to give striking illustration or
inane unfairness and cowardice by sneerlng
" fraud at an electoral commission which IL
helped to form and by whose decision it agreed
to abide.
1t is here to show how long party that Is
clean out of principles and whose record can
not be safely handled without first being
deodorized, can keep above ground simply by
force Of momentum.
It is here to determine whether, being hope
lessly divided against itself on the free trade
issue, 1t can be glued together in 1884 by a
platform committee.
1t is here as the most notable political shock
ing example known to our history.
1t is here to sit up nights, supplcating the
smiling people to make a change for the sake
of change.
New-York tribune., 1883-06-06
TAKE AWAY TIE STEPS.

The panic and slaughter on the Bridge re-
vealed two things with startling clearness,-
first, that the stairways were dangerous and
were bunder, and second, that the police
force on duty was inadequate in experience,
physique and numbers. 1t did not require any
engineering skill to perceive these defects.
Yet Superintendent Martin goes before the IN
quest on the panic and says that he considers
his police force In every way adequate, that it
is the same now as it was at the time of the
panic, and that in his Judgment the steps are
not only preferable to an inclined plane, but
that the particular kind Of steps on the Bridge
are the best and safest possible. In other
words, lie thinks the panic was due entirely to
the stupidity Of the crowd in falling down
these safe" steps, and that if another crowd
allows itself to get into another panic there is
nothing to do but let them kill dozen more
people.
The public does not agree with Mr.. Martin,
and If these observations are the fruit OF his
best judgment the public will insist that the

from Murphy, however, as by the terms OF
compromise agreed upon he was paid only
$500. The cause of political morality Is hc-
cordingly promoted to the extent of $500, and
Mr. English has saved also that precise
amount.
In view of these facts the Democratic party,|
if it had sincere hair in its head or believed
at all in the Reform itpretends to be so anxious
for would nominate William Fl. English not
for Vice-President but for President Here is a
Democrat who is not only refOrmer but re-
formed. Having discovered after tho elec-
tion that his agreement to pay stump speaker
81 200 for his services was contrary to the Con-
stitution, subversive Of good morals and in
violation of New-York statute, he nObly
closes his pocket book, and from purely con-
scentious motives refuses to pay cent. What
could be more admirable than such an attitude
in these degenerate times! 1t is a great thing
for the cause of political morality, and il will
probably teach Murphy not to stump Indiana
again except for cash. Mr.. English ought, as
has been said, to receive his party's nomination
for President He is the only reformed Dem
ocrat of any prominence in the country. But
we fear he will not. His noble stand for the
Constitution and political morality will excite
prejudice instead of winning friends. He was
somewhat dead before; we fear he is now
deader than ever.

UHAT WILL THEY DO WITH HIMr

The whole State Of Massachusetts, is agitated
with the absorbing question, VIII Butler run
aqain next fall, and II he does can he be
beaten2 If he does reconsider his determina-
ton not to be candidate for reelection and is
renominated, it is evident that the State will
see the liveiest campaign in It's history. The
Governors remarkable course has naturally
aroused n great commotion. He has devoted
al, his energies since coming into Office to
persistent and unscrupuous assault upon tho
good name of the State. Whatever was re-
spectable and honored he has attacked, and he
has shown no squeamishness in the choice OF
his weapons. The result is that lie has sue
ceeded in uniting the respectable voters of all
parties solidly against him. He has madc it
matter of State pride for every loyal son of
Massachusetts, to denounce his course. If he
goes before the people for reelection it will be
as the candidate of the ignorant and disreput-
able, and the only question will be whether
those classes or the intelligent and respectable
people are numerically in the majority.
A Republican leader in the State says that
Harvard's refusal to give the Governor n
degree instead of injuring the Republicans will
help them for it has set the keynote of the
next campaign. The issue will be on the per-
petuation of Butlerism or the return to dig
nifed and respectable administration. Butler
has certainly not succeeded In developing
any other issue. His Tewksbury inquiry is
confessed ON oil hands to be failure, and
there are unmistakable indications that be-
fore the defence Is closed public sentiment will
censure tho Governor for his course in tho
whole business A Bostonian said day or two
ago that the boys definition of chemistry ap-
piled perfectly to Butlerism Us displayed In

At the meeting of the American Medical
Association yesterday, in Cleveland, the ques-
tion of revised code of medical ethics Datu-
rally obtruded itself the first thing. The
delegates were all asked to sign what is sub
stantially pledge to support the old code.
Most of them signed it, but some of them
would not. Official regret was expressed that
no delegates were present from New York.
Considering that last year the representatives
of the New-York State Society were refused
admission to the association meeting, their
absence this year is hardly remarkable. 1t
takes time to cultivate fondness for rebufs
New-York tribune., 1883-06-06

Nothing was done officially by the Ohio Re-
publicans at Columbus yesterday, beyond the
organization of the convention. The serious
work was carried on outside the hall. Friends
Of the three leading caDdidates-FOrakc r
Turney and Lawrence-pressed the claims
Of these men for the nomination with
great ardor. 1t was reported in the eve
ming that Mr.. Turney had withdrawn from the
contest. There was persistent agitation
IN favor of Senator Sherman, which was quieted
only by the most positive assurances in his be-
halt that he was sincerely opposed to his nomi-
nation. On the whole, Judge Foraker seemed
to have the best chances of becoming the choice
Of the convention to-day. The earnestness of
the delegates to do what was best for the party
is noteworthy. It's plain that the Ohio Repub-
icans are going into the fight this fall to win.
Even the uninitiated will read with interest
the full report which we publish this morning
on another page of THE TRIBUNE Of the pro.
ceedings of the Grand Lodge of Freemasons
Of this State, now assembled In this city. Free
masonry In these days occupies 30 little of the
public attention that many persons have sup
posed that 1t was gradually dying out The
address of the Grand Master, however, indi-
Gates precisely the contrary. The craft is
fourishine, it is said, none the less because it
makes no noise about It. The last year has
been one of prosperity in New-York at least.
