The Telegraph Wire Nuisance.

Experiments have fully proved that wires

when strung over poles, the only objection sug-
gested being as to the durability of tho mate
rials used in this system. Any difficulty Of
detail in that line ought to be easily removed
in this age of scientific ingenuity and re-
search. The main points of perfect insul0-
there can be no reasonable ground to doubt
that all tho other questions Of detail can be
readily solved.
The duty of the district commissioners is
now plain. They should not cease pressing
tho corporations until every telegraph, tele-
phone, electric light, or other wire used in
trio current shall bo put underground. The
board has tho entiro approval Of tho COM
munity for what it has already done in this
matter, and can rely upon continued support
in following up their war upon the air lines.
Let tho work now in progress be hurried to
completion as speedily as possible, 80 that its
success can be used as an example and answer
to all objeotors.
For experience, here and in other cities,
shows that the great corporations will be
very serious objec tors Scientific perversions,
tho laws battling delays, all the many expe-
dients which unbounded wealth can always
procure to be used in its interest, will be
employed to throw doubt over the practica-
bility of the underground system and prevent
its use. 1t will require steady, unwavering
resolution on the part of the commissioners
to secure the buryng of all the electric wires
in this city, but it is in their power to ulti-
mately bring it about, and thereby greatly
benefit and beautify the city they govern,
Not only this, but such victory would bring
about speedy imitation in every city in our

in London, A mock trial, in which the judge

monstranco to be made against such atrocities
as tho one which will be committed in the

The judge remarked at another time: "There
was young man by the name Of Veterinarian

house, of the same faith that she was, and who
had known her long. In addition to the EVIDENCE
which he gave at the trial, he told some very sin

A Deadly Menace.

In Washington underground telegraph and tele-
phone cables connecting the capitol with other
public buildings are now being tested on an ex-
tensive scale. Extra cables have been laid, and
the fire and police wires have been attached so rs
TO connect fro headquarters with one of the en-
gne houses, II is said that the superintend dent of
the fire alarm telegraph has made such tests as
have convinced him that telegraph wires need
not be strung on poles. 1t is gratifying to learn
that so much progress has been made at Washing
ton. The other great cities Of the country should
follow its example and rid their streets Of the un
slightly, inconvenient and dangerous telegraph
wires and poles. Indeed, as recent terrible acci-
dents indicate. tho municipal authorities will be-
fore long he obliged 10 remove the wires on
grounds of public safety alone. The wonder is
that they have been allowed to cumber and dis

WHILE it has been understood that the ma
tional convention is to be held in the exposi-
tion building at Chicago, as it was in 1880, it
may be found on investigation that the new
board of trade hall is better adapted to the
needs of the convention. The poor acoustic
properties Of the immense exposition hall and
the nuisance of numerous trains passing so
close by it as to frequently stop all proceed
ings for time are two strong grounds of OBJ
lection to its use. The new board of trade
hall will accommodate over 5000 persons,
which would seem to be ample. The dele
gates and alternates provided for, there will
remain room for 5000 spectators.

tho memory of great man. Oliver
p. Morton was ono of the strongest

ing the political area as governor of
Indiana just before the commencement of the

the foremost figures of that heroic period.

and tho PEOPLE honor themselves by honoring
his memory. The statue which is soon to be
unveiled has boen provided by popular sub
