POLICE EsPIONAGE.

The alleged "shadowing' OF Con
gressmen and others, under orders of
the Police Department Is in all proba.
bility myth No such orders have
been issued by the present Chief, nor
was any such policy couutenonced by
his predecessor. At the same time it
is not to be questioned that in times
past there has been more or less Of this
sort of espionage, with tho cDnnivlncc
of the police authorjlie, nor is there
anything TO prevent it- being carried
on now. Detectives can readily he
found to engage 10 the ,n'nnou' busi-
ness by those who have objects 10 sub.
serve by the pursuit aud the money to
pay for the service.
That such espionage IS any part "
our present police system. or would BE-
countenanced for moment, we doubt
if anybody not ignorautly credulon7,
can believe. 1t il something wholly
foreign to our institutions, absurdly
unnecessary in q political sense, and
would prove disastrous and degrading
TO the dignity, efficiency aud discipline
of the entire department.
In the unfortunate complications
which have arisen involving the repu.
iation Of an officer long respected and
considered trustworthy to the last de.
gree, 1t is to be hoped the findings will
dis lose some satisfactory explanation
for an apparently ineXplicable course.
Lieutenant Arnold should not be hastily
prejudged, nor will he be. He is en-
titled to a fair hearing and will be
given it, II it shall appear that he has
been misled or misinformed, or is the
unwitting victim of conspiracy,
there should be wide allowance for his
imputed fault. If, upon the other
hand, it is shown that he has been de.
liberately guilty of the scandalous con-
duct charged against him, there can be
but one result. No man knows better
Il an Lieutenant Arnold what the con.
sequences of such reprehensible insub.
ordination would necessarily be. 1t is
to be hoped that the case is not so seri.

And In the dOuryard tree q bird
Trills sleepily his evening hymn.

What shall i Teach Herr


AT recent social gathering, says the
Charleston Is. c. Dispatch, some one pro-
posed this question: "What shall teach

handed In:

"Yesn and stick to it.
Teach her how to wear calico dress,

fort as well as for appearance.
Teach her TO cultivate flowers aud to keep

THE TORCH OF Liberty.

The Lighthouse Board announces
that 1t was obliged to discontinue the
use of the electric light at He'll Gate.
because 1t operated as hiudrance,
rather than help, to navigation. For
the same reasons which applied
in that case 1t might be dsin-
clined to place lights upon the Bar
tholdi Statue, even if it had the money
or the authority to do so. 1t would
never do to send glare out to sea
from the summit of that lofty structure
TO bewilder and mislcad the incoming
mariner.
The inference therefore, Is that
whatever progress is made by the
much snubbed Goddess toward the en-
ligltenment of the world will have to
be done by daylight, her nights to be
spent in compulsory darkness and utter
inutilty to the liberties Of mankind.
That she should be condemned to such
an ordinary routine of days works,
subserving no object ut all during the
long hours between suudown and sun

pointment, not only to her eminent
sculptor, but to hosts of liberly.loving
friends of all nations. 1t was certainly
not the purpose of the designer that
she should go to roost, as it were,
every night, but rather that his colossal
conception should be at all times visi-
BILE, shedding its most benign illumina-
tion, when no longer rejecting the light
of day, as beacon and guide to those
that go down TO the sea in ships.
This is what sthe statue should be
and what in time it will probably be-
come. If the electric appliances now
in vogue are unsuited to lighthouse
use, improvements must be made for
their better adaptation to the end In
view. 1t does not comport with the
dignity of great government that it
should thus early settle down to such a
commonplace conclusion as that Of the
Lighthouse Board and consign the
noblest adornment Of the harbor of
New York to darkness.
If the electric light will not ans wer,
let some other illumination be tried; let
no pains be spared or experiment g
untested, to render our modern Colos-
sus of some beneficeut and practical
service to navigation.
No matter whether the electric light
at Hell Gate Is failure on NOT, II
should never be said that the big
Bartholdi bronze cannot be lighted at
all.
Sooner or later will Science come to
the rescue of Iiberty-lf not the
science Of the United States, the sGeuc
of France-and set her towering torch
ahame SO that all the world may see.
Even the closing session OF u Congress,
not conspicuously fruitful Of good
works, will scarcely refuse the neces-
sary appropriation to keep IL burning.

HENRY GEORGE Is quoted by his
brother as saying that he believes fully
100. 600 men started for the polls on
election morning with the intention Of
voting for him. Why they did not all
do so was owing in great measure t,
their being inundated on the way.
This is scarcely credible. The pro.
portion of those who were "intimiaa.
ted" to vote for George was, no doubt,
two to one as against those who were
intimidatcd not to so vote. The disci
pline of the labor organizations IS
proving itself to be stronger force
than the influence of old party associa.
tions, and this is something for the
politicians to seriously consider in all
their calculations.

A VINE MOVE.

The resolution of the executive
committee of the anti Chinese League
to invite ladies' to attend their meet
ings in future, is a wise one. No
great social reform has ever been ac-
complisled without the active sym
pathy and co operation of women;
and if we can succeed in enlisting
the good mothers, the true wives, and
pure girls of Haley in the anti Chi.
nese cause the hated Mongolian will
have to go-and quickly, too. So,
let formal invitation be extended to
the ladies, to attend the meetings.
Their presence will incite the speakers
to their best efforts, the audiences to
greater enthusiasm, and everybody
concerned to more frmness in the
good cause.
