THE SIATE SURVEY.

The annual report of the Commissioners Of
the State Survey is short, clear, straightfor-
ward business document. The operations of the
year have been confined to computation for the
reason that the funds at the disposal of the
Board were not sufficient to continue the field
work of the survey. The question for the
present Legislature to determine ISIS OF is 1t
not sound policy to make an appropriation for
the survey sufficiently large to allow the i'm
portant work In hand to be diligently prose
cuted until it is completed
The Commissioners report that an eSpend-
ture of $4,000 per annum will secure tOpo-
graphical maps and surveys of from three to
five counties a year. the maps to be issued
shortly after the completion of the field work
in each county. They arrive at these figures
from an examination of the experience of other
States in the execution of similar works. The
total estimated cost is $505,200.
The sum asked for is insignificant In COM
parison with the signal benefit which it would
secure to the people. One of the pressing pub
lie needs Of our State Is trigOnOmetric and
typographical survey. Until it is accomplished,
no authoritative maps of the counties can be
furnished. The State Board of Health, an or
ganization the value Of whose labors Is gener-
New-York tribune., 1885-02-05

ally conceded, finds that the want OF such maps
seriously embarrasses them. The Director OF the
State Survey sacts as Engineer OF the Health
Board, and in his capacity Of Engineer ne
testifes as follows:
Az tho public health work IA developed the need OF
Typographical maps OF part of the state becomes
more aud more apparent There are many important
questions concerning the protection OF water supphes
that the B.,ard is unable to deal with for want Oh
maps aud there are great districts OF inc
state wbero the distribution OF prevailing diseases anu
tho remedies for nhealthu conditions are so dependent
upon tor structure that the State Board Oh
Health could not make investigations requested by the
legislators until the State Survey should prepare the
necessary maps.
The work, then, being necesstyit only re-
mains to be determined how it can be best ac-
complished Scientific authorities have united
in testifying that all that the StateaSurvey has
done thus far has been well done. The Com
mssioners report that economy and efficiency
reauire that the survey be prosecuted con-
tinuously and on q large scale. This would
seem to be q commons conclusion. The
subject is one that demands and will doubtless
receive careful consideration at the hands oil
Our law makers.
New-York tribune., 1885-02-05
B1REJNG AT REPUBLICANS.

Prone, as usual, to suspect rascality and job
berry where none exist, andi TO make unjust
charges against Republican legislators. The
Neu- York I ines laboriously denounccs the res
olutions passed by the Legislature favoring the
Hennepin Canal project. In effect its reasoning
is that canal from the Mississippi to the lake
must be worthless, because n canal from the
lakes to the Hudson River has of late years
proved comparatively ineffective in competition
with railroads. 1t is not here proposed to dis
cuss at length the merits of the Hennepin plan,
But The objection which that paper raises merits
notice for its very foolishness
1t has long been notorious fact that the
rates charged for tTanspor tatiOn of grain and
other freight. by the roads from the Mississippi
to Chicago. were altogether disproportionate 10
the rates charged on any other portion OF tho
long route from the farms TO the seaboard.
The official reports of these railways illustrate
this fact they are among the most profitable
roads in the country, and have been able to
expand themselves over the whole Northwest In
their efforts to grasp new territory and new bus-
ness mainly because they have been enabled to
exact rates of freight which to Eastern trunk
lines have long been unknown. The roads
which transport in competition with tho Erie
Canal, as appeared from the last statement oi
the State Engineer, charged last year an
average of only "a of n cent per ton per mile.
and that for all kinds of freight, both through
and local. The average rate on the roads from
the Mississppi.t to Chicago is nearly double this.
Comparison of the prices at other Western
cities and at Chicago will show that the tax
for transporting grain to that city is fully twice
as great per mile as the tax for transporting
from that city to New-York The Erie Canal
rendered incalculable service. not only TO the
State and to the City of New York, but for
many years to the whole country, by limiting
and, in effect, steadily reducing the railway
charges for freight Under tho influence of
that competition tho railway system has here
been so developed that the canal can hardly
compete with it. Precisely the same service Is
needed on the western cad of the route from the
wheat growing regions to the sea. If IA canal
from the Mississippi TO Chicago would cut
down he al rates on that part of the route rs
much as the canal from Buffalo to Albany has
cut down the rates from Chicago to New
York, the country could afford to pay for the
construction Of such n canal every year for the
next ten years, and would save money by the
operation. Yet New York built her own canal /;
and Chicago need not BE- too bashful in imitat
ing good examples

THE INSPECTOR OF BUILDINGS.


We print this morning full statement from
Fire Commissioner Van Colt of The facts In
reference to the resignation of Inspector Ester
brook. 1t breathcs throughout spirit of sym
pathetic consideration for the ex-lnspectOr, and
the kind hearted Commissioner Is evidently
much disturbed by his sudden retirement But
we are not at all surprised that Mr.. Esterbrook
made ND his mind to go. Mr.. Van Colts col
leagues may not always have shared his rouc-
tance to EN- barrass the Inspector by partisan IN
reference. We regret that the city has lost the
services of thoroughly honest, competent ard
Woodworking official, whose pOsitiveness and
pertinacty were merits in that place. In the
enormous mass of shambling construction
which disfgures and disgraces great part OF
our city lies dau ger of the gravest sort. New
York needs public servants who Will not budge
an incl, no matter though millionaire property
owners rage and politicians murmur.
Our Fire Department is well disciplined,
prompt and efficient. Our citizens justly have
great confidence IN it. But the swiitest and
best drilled fire service will often fail to save
property and even life, If the building laws are
not enforced with unsparing severity. Our
Fire commissioners should keep up the dis
cipline of their force but their department will
fall short of its whole duty unless they fill the
position of Inspector of Buildings with n man
as stubborn for the right as Mr. Esterbrook has
haan

POSTMASTER AByES REMOVAL.

On another page will be found n recital as
thrilling as any chapter OF "Ihe Fools
Errand." 1t is detailed account of the assas-
,ination of Postmaster Able in Florida by an
organized band of Southern miscreants. His
Northern friends speak Of him In the highest
terms as a public spirited citizen and Christian
gentleman without fear or roproach But no
was Republican, courageous, sincere and out
spoken and this was crime which his Demo-
cratic neghbors could not cOndone. The secret
society formed for rdding the community of
obnoxious Republicans determined to remove
the Postmaster. They dccreed his death and
appointed the e1ccutioners. He was murdered
In broad daylight under the most atrocous cir
cumstances. Two cowardy assassins used their
shot-guns at short range and then cut his throat,
and the lifeless body was taken out in a small
boat and dumped in the bay. In this SUNNI Try
fashion was the Postmaster removed
The fate OF the Postmaster, it appears. was
decided by this Democratic tribunal some time
before the election, but the execution of the
sentence was deferred for prudential reasons. so
as not to embarrass Mr.. Clevelands canvass IL
may be that the victim marked out for assas
sination was generously allowed the privilege OF
voting as a Republican, although precautions
were undoubtedly taken to dispense with the
counting of his ballot But when the election
was over and the time for the outrage was op-
perfume, the murderers took counsel together
and assassnated him. He had displayed great
energy in effecting the rapid settlement of the
county where he lived and in promoting the in
dustrial interests of his adopted State. He was
good citizen. an efficient ofHce-holder, q peace
able neighbor, and most excellent man. But
he was also Republican. That settled 1t. He

TIE EYPOSIJTON FINANCES.

The financial difficulties of the managers OF the
New-Orleans Exposition seem to increase. The
last Of December they stated that they were
5000, 900 in debt. The second week in January
this amount, was increased to $268,O0O; and now
it has been further increased to 1000, and a
committee has been appointed to ask Congress for
further appropriation of $5OO.OOO "to save the
Exposition from ruin" The indebtedness has been
rapidly increasing. although the Exposition has
been open seven weeks, during which time large
amount is said to have been taken in from sub
scriptions in New Orleans. The attendance has not
been sufficient to pay running expenses, and Con
grcss is asked to furnish money to pay the
employees. contractors, ETC., and TO build railroad
and supply other conveniences. If this Is the con-
dition of affairs now, what may be expected Ii tie
Exposition continues until June
There is already about $1.3O0,000 of public
money Invested in this enterprise, without
the prospect of getting any of it back. To
ask for another appropriation under the cir
cumstances appears ridiculous. If any action
whatever is taken by Congress it should be in the
nature of q thorough investigation of all the
receipts and expenditures of the Exposition up to
the present time. When application was made to
Congress for appropriation it was stated to the
House that the managers then had SI5O,O0O
in their treasury raised from private subscriptions
and that the STOCKHOLDERS nad NOteu 10 lncredbo
their subscriptions to $1OOO,O00. exclusive of the
100000 appropriated by the State of Louisiana
and the City of New-0rleans. 1t now leaks out
that no such sum of money was in the hands OF the
managers or if it was there il has been diverted to
ot.er purposes. The debt instead of being $4,000
il probably NEARLY twice that amount, as there is
no money to pay the $125.O00 advertised in pre-
miums. Ii the people of NswOrleans do not take
sufficient interest in the Exposition to pay up their
subscriptions, then it should never have been
undertaken.
There are bills now before Congress to appropriate
5000, 900 for an Exposition in Chicago, an equal
sum for one III st. Louis and about the same amount
for representation in "a proposed American Expos-
tion in London Mexico is going to hold an Inter
national Exposition. when another large appro-
pration will he asked for If Congress is going into
the show business, then it should employ Banum
or some other experienced manager. and not incur
surh foolish risks as have been undertaken In New
Orleans. II that Exposition is to be continued ut
the expense of the public treasury then it should
be moved 10 place where there will be prospect
of some better return on the investment.

The British troops in Southern Egypt, after
the fashion of true soldiers, are reckless III the
extreme; but they are as lucky as they are
reckless and brave. The last dash from qua

business, not to ruin it. There is no chance
