Attention was called in THE TRIBUNE yester-

in Iowa and that the wisdom or folly OF prohlbi-

tested in that State. In a dispatch from
Dubuque, which is printed IN another
column. it is said that Deputy United States
Revenue Collector whose district includes half
the counties of the State, has just returned from
a tour of inspection and declares that at every
place where he stopped the prohibition law was
freely violated Liquor and beer were sold
openly, and no questions asked. This Is not

New York Society.

Twelve years ago there were two distinct
social sets in New York, says New York
correspondent. They were called the down
town" and the "up town The down town
set really was the swell society set. for it was
headed by the Astors, and included all the
society families, the foundation of whose
wealth had been laid at least several genera
lions ago. The up town set was composed
entirely of the newly rich people, whose
wealth had been but recently acquired, and
who made rather a vulgar display of it. The
in those days you had ntimated to member
of the down town set that a member of the
up town set would ever gain admittance into
the former, the representative of the down
town set would have thrown up her hands in
holy horror. But today the old distnc-
ton between these sets no longer
exists. This is how the merger
was brought about: Three winters ago it
was announced that Mrs. w. X. Vanderbilt
would give fancy dress ball. A few days
before the invitations were issued Mrs. Aston
called upon Mrs. Vanderbilt. Every one
knew what that meant. Mrs. Astor received
an invitation to the ball and attended it Her
entrance into the Vanderbilt house was the
entrance of the Vsuderbits into society. The
other new rich" followed them with rush,
and the distinction between down town and
up town was obliterated. There is no reason
why the Vanderbits should not hold their
own with the Astors; for both families rose
from equally humble circumstances.

s'the Standard Oil Company and the
Cincinnati election" Unlike most other
statesmen who have discussed this ques-
ton. Senator Hoar endeavors to point out
the practical means by which the existing
wrong may be righted, and his sugges-
tons in that direction deserve general at
tention.
Senator Hoar has been an earnest be-
lever in genuine reform of the civil SER
vice from the first, and he is supported by
a constituency which has perhaps as clear
an idea of the meaning of that reform, and
as strong desire to promote it. as any
other in the country. His criticisms of
the Presidents conduct cannot be brushed
aside with easy Indifference, and they will
have weight with people in all parts Of
the country who sincerely care for reform.
Others will agree with him that the hon.
est criticism of the President by republi-
cans is indefinitely more respectful to
him" than the style of treatment adopted
BY most OF his former supporters, which
Mr. Hoar likens to DIR. Johnson's judg-
ment of woman's preaching: Sir, a
"woman's preaching is like dog walk
ing on "his hind legs. 1t is not done
well. But you ''are surprised to find it
done at all ~. Y. Tribune.

An UnhOly Alliance.

Attorney General Garland signalizes his
return to Washington by denying ali respon-
si5ility for the suit brought in the name of
the United States to annul the Bell Telephone
patents for the benefit of a rival company, in
which he is director and owns stock whose
par value is 81 500 900 He saws that he did
not authorize and had no knowledge of the
bringing Of the suit Solicitor General
Goode announces that he desires to shoulder
all the responsibility. He brought the suit
as acting attorney general in MIR. Garlands
absence, and without regard to the parties in
interest.
This is very well, but it is not the end.
The attorney general very properly shrank
from using his high public office to push his
private interests. But is he willing to allow
his subordinate to do what he thinks he can
not do himself with propriety? He is the
head of the department of Justice. The
TELEPHONE suit may have been instituted with
out his approval or knowledge, but it cannot
be continued except by his consent, either ex-
pressed or implied According to J. w.
Rogers. Mr.. Garland refused to bring the
suit himself from motives of delcacy, at the
instance of his Cwn company, the Panelec-
tric but consented to allow the solicitor gem
eral to move in the matter, in behalf OF the
National Improved Telephone Company. a
small concern, IN which the attorney gen.
eral owned no stock. This explanation is ex-
tremely thin, As the invaidatlon of the Bell
Telephone patents would inure to the benefit
of all rival companies, leaving this fight for
precedence amongst themselves. As the
Pan-electric Company and the National I'M
proved Company were evolved from the
teeming brain of the same individual, and
seem to have for the most part the same
owners, there il not likely to be any deadly
rivalry between them.
Why the Pan-electric Company should not
proceed against the Bell Telephone Compa-
ny tor infringement through its own private
suit, instead of asking to have the United
States made the plaintiff in its behalf, does
not appear. The course pursued is a most
unusual one, and the Attorney General will
doubtless perceive the impossibllity of using
the money and machinery of his office to
press what is, to all intens and purposes, his
own private suit With all the democratic
political interest which Pdn-electrlc Tele-
phone Company seems to be able to command,
there ought to be money enough obtalnable
to support the expense of their own lawsuits
Mr.. Garland's defense is satisfactory only In
case he shall prove his sincerity by divorcing
in some way the unholy alliance now exist
ing betw cen the Pen-electric Telephone Com
pany, the Attorney General and the Depart
msnt of Justice. Let him sell his stock, re-
sign his office, or dis continue the suit

The democratic papers in New York
are disposed to make merry over the re-
fusal of the mugwumps to support Hill,
but it is noticeable that they are profound
ly silent over the reputation OF the dem
ocratic state ticket by the New York
Staats Zeitung, the leading German paper
in that city. The bolt OF a large number
of German voters to Davenport. which is
predicted by one of the editors of the
Stats Ieitung ia an interview published
in the Albany Journal is a serious blow
to the democrats. and. when added to
their other embarrassments, makes the
democratic outlook gloomy indeed. Yes,
the failure OF the democratic press to grow
mirthul over the loss of their German
contingent in New York is easily ex-
planned.

The Chicago Railway Age, in its issue
of Oct. |. shows that the number of new
railroads propose and in progress during
the last nine months has been 626, with a
total mileage OF II 1898. From this record
it argues that "a surprising awakening of
activity in regard to railway building has
become evident" But the activity seems
to be mainly in the projecting of railways
on paper, for the actual construction of
roads has been less this year thus tar than
in any other year since 1873, only about
LOO miles having been built. against
over 1900 to the same date last year. and
about Z 300 to the same date in 1882. The
question is whether the money can be had
for the great swarm of new railway enter
prlses proposed. In the present condition
of the market for securities. and with the
confidence OF capitalists at its present low
ebb. it seems rather unlikely.
