A STRICT ooNsrRucTIoNrsr.


why Collector Robinson Resigned
from the Republican State Com.
mittee.
Collector Robinson, it appears, has re-
signed his position on tho New York Re-
publican State Committee, because, being
a Federal officer.holder, he conceives that
his service on that committee might subject
his party to criticism and TO many worthy
people might seem q violation of the law.
Referring to this matter, tho New York
Tribune says IL may be doubted, with some
reason, whether just construction of the
law would exclude Federal officials from
participation in any form of party activity,
save those which involve personal connec-
tion with the collection and disbursement
of money. Though State Committee has,
in certain senses, control of collections and
control of disbursements, Ii is we'll known
that, as o matter of fact, that branch of
work is entirely intrusted to subcommit-
tee and to individual officers of the com.
mitteo.
No sound reason. exists in tho public
policy, of excluding from the formal con-
sultations of a party those who occupy oili-
cial positions. The law cannot exclude
such men from private consultation with
those who have been their political asso-
ciates and friends, and no possible good can
be done by prohibiting their public partici-
patton in the management Of campaigns to
this extent. But the course of Collector
Robertson in this matter reflects honor
upon himself and his party, because 1t
shows disposition to regard the laws most
scrupulously and to obey them with strict
fidelity, even when there Is reasonable
doubt as to their proper construction.

TRYING TO DOWN THE DUST.
A Novel Crowd OF workers on Capt..
tOl Hill To-day.

A novel and interesting sight was pre-
sented this morning on A street, between
Sixth and Seventh streets southeast. For
several days past workhouse gang, in
charge of Officer Arnold, has been cleaning
the cutters and alleys in East Washington.
Yesterday and this morning they appeared
in force on A street, between the streets
aforesaid, and piled up the filth and dirt
that has been accumulating there for a
year or more, preparatory to carting it
away. And so anxious were tho residents
Of the street to prove that cleanliness is
next to Godliness," they put to work their
littlo girls and boys, ranging from 2 to z
years old, with toy and stove shovels and
old brooms to assist in the yeoman work
being done by this gang.
One little girl about seven years old
handled large coal shovel with consid-
erable ease, and all were as busy as bees in
honey time. Although A street, between
Sixth and Seventh southeast, is improved
by good and substantial houses the owners
and occupants of them are continually an.
noyed by its dusty and filthy condition.
They therefore earnestly hope aud pray
that tho Honorable Commissioners will ere
long recognize their wants and give t.em
an asphalt, block or some other good and
substantial pavement and thereby do away
with such filth and dirt and the services OF
said gang and little children for the pur-
poses aforesaid.

citizen from the assault and trespass of

Judge Mills as q iurist of intelligence and
as man of marked eommon-sense, but re-
gret and deplore the fact that hc displays
phenomenal ignorance in his decision that
n citizen has any rights which police Of
flcer is bound to respect. We have no doubt
that Judge Mills was actuated by manly
principles in declaring in favor of the citi-
zen, but we are surprised that gentleman
of his long experience in the city Of Wash.
ington should display such boldness aud
utter disregard for preccdonts as to utter a
dissenting voice in favor of the house.
holder as against tho police officer.
We are afraid that If Judge Mills con-
tinucs this sort of thing he will demorallzo
our force into behaving themselves by at
tending to their legitimate business and
compel them TO be decent officials.

In the address on the envelope brought the
circular to your number, and as II gave you a
favorable opportunity 10 ventilato your init

regret that the error should have occurred is
largely mitigated. Most men, knowing that q
clerical error had been made In the address,
after reading the circular, would courtoously
have returned the same TO this committee for
correction, but your sense of the courtesles
and amenities OF neighborhood relation seems
to have led you In another direction.
This being matter OF taste aud education,
this committee is too closely engaged with Its
legitimate duties to indulge in more than an
acknowledgment OF your favor, and TO give
you the assurance that It does not expect any
further contribution at your hands, you hav.
ing given already very liberally OF that ol
which you seem 10 be most possessed.
You're, &c.,
