SHALL We HATE BRo4DWAT BAILROAD'


II has not generally been supposed that when
the present honored leaders of the Newly ork
Bar retire from the active practice OF their pro-
fcssion their successors should be sought IN the
ranks of the Democratic members OF the Board
of Aldermen. But the thorough mastery OF
pIcccdcnts and the sure grip on the great I'M
deriving principles of jurisprudence, which have
been shown by Aldermen Kirk and Shells IN
the discussions on the subject OF Il railroad IN
Broadway, make II probable that when the
Office Of Corporation Counsel becomes va
cant these two gentlemen will be prom
inent candidates for the place. 1t Is
true that the legal studies of Mr.. Kirk were at
one time interrupted by his excessive and de-
cidedly cratic devotion to the duties of n
school trustee, while Mr.. Sheilss delvings
among codes, revised statutes and court reports
have been diversified by personal investigation
of the ingredients of an immense variety of
mixed drinks, and by prolonged testing OF the
effects of "Quinine" in large doses on the
human system. But in spite of these draw
backs the two Aldermen have accumulated
such stores of legal learning that they know
great deal more than the present Corporation
Counsellor, at least, they say they do.
We fear that members of the Board have
laid their hands on something else than legal
principles in connection with this Broadway
franchise. No one who understands the origin
of most of our Democratic Aldermen, and the
means by which their nomination and election
have been procured, will believe that there are
no itching palms among the members, or that
the men who voted to give outright TO Jacob
Sharp and his allies franchise which can be
sold for two millions OF dollars were influenced

nRE4D AND MAT ~ ENGLAND.


The interesting announcement made in the
spring of 1883, "that the Royal Household
would not eat lamb during the season" may
have seemed nimportant TO many. Nevelthe-
less. the example of the Royal Household ap-
pears tohave so far checked the consumption
IN Great Britain that the number of lambs.
which had been rapidly declining, has since
greatly increased. The official statement of
live stock for lssl shows that the proportion
of lambs to sheep is now 80 per cent, and there
has been am increase of nearly one million in
the number Of both, or about per cent. The
unhappy lack Of cattle also, which caused meat
i'm Great Brtain to become uncomfortable high,
has been in some measure repaired by an in
crease of 27s, 900 head during the past year
and 1873 900 head, or 7l2 per cent, during the
past two years.
The official statement does not make the
acreage of wheat quite as great as had been es-
timatcd. In Great Britain and Ireland it is
only 2,74j,1Sj. The estimated yield is thirty
one bushels per acre, which would be about
$4,000. 600 bushels a little less than has been
supposed in trade circles, but not enough TO
affect the price Out Of 100000, 900 bushels
required for the consumption of Great Britain
and Ireland, only about 100000 bushels, or
80 per cent, is raised in that country. For the
rest, Great Britain depends upon foreign COM
mercc. drawing about half its foreign supply
from this country.
Ii is also interesting TO know that. notwith-
standing the increase i'll number of cattle.
Great Britain still draws large part of its sup
ply of meat from other countries. Gables re-
port a decline in beef in London markets.
American refrigerator beef being offered there
AT little above ten cents. The official statement
of imports of animal food for the last year.
1888. shows that not far from IL zoe. 900
hundred weight of meat food was imported.
amounting to about twcnty-eight pounds for
each inhabitant and costing about 81 pcycapita.
| The consumption IN this country has been est
mated AT over 100 pounds per capita, but II may
be doubted whether the portion of the British
supply drawn from abroad Is not nearly half
of the entire quantity consumed.

Some of the Democratic and Dependent news
napers have tried to make political capital out
of the death of the Secretary of the Treasury,
saving that he was really killed by the Repub-
lican party which did not elect HIM Governor
of this state two years ago. There Is, OF COURSE
no truth IN such IA statement. MI George hiss
in letter which Is printed in another column
of this paper declares that Judge FolSer took
his defeat with equanimity and felt no partc-
ular personal disappointment over it.

The friends of Hanlan. the oarsman, will re-
ioice that his defeat at Sidney. in Australia, ON
August lG, does not prove that Beach, the victor,
Is the better man of the two. 1t was not fair
race in fact. although technically it may have
been So According to the most trustworthy
account Hanlan, who was ahead, was disturbed
bytheproximity Of a steamer and pulled his BOAT
suddenly to one side so that II fouled with
Beach's she'll. The Canadian claimed foul
but it was not allowed; and as Beach was first
at the winning post the victory was given to
him. Thus he is fairly called tho winner, al
though Hanlan can certainly row faster than
he.

There has been a great deal of nonsense written
about too rapid reduction of the public debt"
Much Of il is based upon mistaken recollection OF
the days when largo part Of the debt was held
abroad, and consequently its payment involved a
disbursement 10 foreign nations. As matters now
stand when SIO. 900 900 Of the debt is paid, the
money gocs from the Treasury of the United states
to citizens of tho United states. who put II INTO
banks or trust companies. or themselves directly
employ it in productive industry. Trace this money
closely and we shall see that it is drawn from the
pockets of the people by taxation only 20 Tar rs inc
taxes are paid by American consumers. But the
taxes in part paid by foreign producers so that

Mr.. Blaine built at Washington a more costly
house than he could afford, the Democratic papers
report with fierce delight. True and being poorer
man than he expected TO be. he has rented 1t as
Mr. Phelps stated in his letter some months ago.
Mr. Blaine never was worth a quarter of million
though his investment in coal lands and in railroads
promised to return him larger sum. But he never
enriched himself by wrecking railroads, as Mr. Til
den did, nor by demanding the Governmental taxes
due and either of Mr. Tldcn's two houses probably
cost four times as much the one which Mr. Blame
built in over-hopefuness and was unable 10 occupy
1t is charged too that Mr.. Blame is a richer man
than Mr.. Cleveland. That is true In his brains
Mr. Blaine has a capital which returns by the sale
of one book more money than Mr.. Cleveland ever
earned in his life

The wonder is that the conllagration which
has lust afflicted Cleveland did not occur be-
fore. The position of the great lumber yards
ON the flats has been a standing menace to
the business part of the city for years. Num-
berless fires have broken ont among them
which have been checked only with the great
est difficulty. If the municipal authorities of
Cleveland allow the space now burned over to
be used hereafter just as il has been III the past
the scene of Sunday night may be repeated
within six months. II the flats must be given
I'D 20 lumber yards, the whole district should be
under the strictest regulations as to precautions
AGAINST fire. The oil works on the flats are an
other source of danger which Cleveland would
do well TO look after.

1t has long been the opinion of careful OBJ
servers of municipal affairs that the only thing
our public officials as general thing have any
fear of is the authority of the courts. Public
opinion they entirely ignore, but they don't
dare disobey judges order for fear OF being
locked up for contempt. That this is a correct
observation is shown by the action of the Alder
men at Their meeting yesterday. They began
