that they constitutionally have the power TO

Before Wednesday Governor Cleveland must
sign the bill depriving the Aldermen Of New
York of any power to confirm the Mayors nomi-
nations. or veto it, or allow it to become law
without his signature. There has been some
fear lest his long delay to approve the measure
was owing TO his unwillngness to do so; bat it
is now said that Mr. Cleveland has been occu-
pied in preparing a statement OF his reasons for
signing the act in order to forestall dcnuncia-
ton from partisan Democrats. Every body will
hope that this explanation Is correct. 1t is GER
tainly hard TO conceive how the Governor could
make up his mind to veto the bill in the face
of public opinion, Moreover, he has been
Mayor himself.

THE ARTTFIcIALIrY or PRISON LIFE

While it is certain that politics is accountable
for very much of the slowness of penal reform In
this country, a careful examination Of the progress
made under governments not 50 hampered
shows that there are other factors in the case.
An important one, though scarcely ever considered
even by veteran Psychologists, Is the arthcialitJ OK
prison life. Even under the recent approved penal
systems this is patent. The criminal on entering
the prnItentiary passes into world, which has
few or no parallel. outside. Now, however care

siblc that il should be effective substitute for
those powerful and constant influences which
mould mems characters In the active
world; and the more the convict adapts HIM
self to his new conditions the more
untitled for active external life Is he liable to be-
come There Is, in fact danger that under the
elaborate modern systems of supervision aud direc-

If the experiments now making at Fort
Hamilton with the dynamite gun show that thlS
engine of destruction will accomplish all that
its inventor claims for it, we are on the eve Oh
great change in the methods of naval warfare
and indeed of all kinds of warfare. The dyna-
mite is placed in a huge projectlle when Is
thrown from a gun by compressed air. There
is no explosion $50 the inventor says until tic
hugo dart strikes the object at which 1t Is
aimed, and then the destruction is great enough
to sink the heaviest iron-clad. The point, OF
course, is to keep the dynamite, which Is more
sensitive to a slight shock than is pleasant
sometimes from going Oft as it leaves the gun OF
in its course through the air. To sec If tins
possibility can be avoided is the object OF part
of the experiments now being conducted by the
War Department.. They are reported to be
reasonably successful. 1t would hardly be wise,
however at this stage Of the proceedings Tor

the Navy lest this last terrible weapon should

The sales in this city of beef dressed IN Cm,

increasing. But if the charges made by the
butchers of New-Y0rl arc true talling-o1 III
sales will soon be noticed. They say that TINS
beef is mainly preserved by chemical treatment
which makes it unwholesOme toeot. 1t mas
generally been supposed that all that was
necessary to keep the beef fresh was to carry II
in refrigerator cars that in this way it reached
New York in perfect condtion-much better
than it would have been if the cattle had been
brought here alive. The statements or the
Butchers Unions on Saturday and yesterday
however seem to be made in earnest, and the

The straits to which the once powerful
tribe are reduced is pitiful. With no
provisions, and starvation staring them
in the face, would it be a wonder if
they should make wal on the herds of
cattle adjacent to their reservation?
A famine in Ireland or any part of the
world. .enlists the sympathy of all
Americans, while in our midst are more
than 5000 people actually starving, and
not a finger raised to help them. This
