The street Chr strike.

New YORK, February This morn.
ing there were no cars running on either
the Fourth, Sixth or Seventh avenue
lines, and but one or two on the Broad
way line. The strikers number about
1850. The strike is due to the refusal
of the company to operate the road &C.
cording to the recently adopted time
schedule forced upon the company by
the Executive Board of the Empire Pro-
tective Association of New York. All
of the employees of the road, including
the conductors, drivers, stablemen and
hitchers, are affected by the strike. The
company's stables at Thirty-third street
and Fourth avenue were deserted this
morning, cars stood empty on the tracks
and no more than half dozen men can
be seen about the place.
Superintendent Newell yesterday af-
ternoon was visited by a committee
from the conductors and drivers, who
demanded that the schedule be so
arranged that the men will work less
than twelve hours, and that the present
pay be continued The drivers asked
that the pay of S2.35 per day be con-
tinued for reduced number of trips.
The Board of Directors held short
session to-day at which the Superin.
ten,lent laid before them the demands of
the men. He explained that owing to
the stormy weather and blockades the
working time had exceeded twelve hours
a day. If trips could be made on sched-
ule time there would have been no
grounds for complaint. The Directors
voted to concede to the demands made
by the men yesterday and Superintend-
emit Newell was instructed to notify the
strikers that within week the schedule
would be arranged in accordance with
their wishes,

The brilliant editor OF the s. +.
Alta, in long and labored editorial
the other day, beaten at all other
points, returns to the old and ex-
ploded claim against Southern Cali
fornia, that it is "dry" section OF
the country. AS regards Los Ange-
les county, il would be very difficult
TO convince anybody here that this is
a dry year, or that last year was, or
the year before, or, in fact, any year
for the eight last past. The truth IS,
this is not droughty region. In all
but the most exceptional years, at
long intervals apart, we have an
abundance OF rainfall that is neces-
sary for any agricultural purpose
here in this county, without relying
on irrigation at all. Besides, we pos
sess remarkable advantages for irri-
CATION, notwithstanding the state
ment Of the Ala that our supply for
that purpose is "limited." The nu-
merous streams, as the Santa Ana,
San Antonio, San Gabriel, Arroyo
Seco, Los Angeles river and others,
that flow down from the inexhausti-
BILE reservoirs of nature in the ada
cent mountains, afford unexampled
facilities and supplies for the work Of
irrigating the soil, where such is
deemed necessary; and the multi
tude of artesian wells almost every
where obtainable, rising up from sub
terranean depths, and unceasing in
aow. supplement the streams and
furnish generous quantities OF the
aqueous fluid at points not accessible
to water from these streams. We are
informed that more than 200 artesian
wells, scattered all over the county,
were bored last year. And this is not
all. The Sierra Madre mountains, on
the nights Of which the rain falls in
torrents every winter and percolating
to the bases thereof, and finding its
way finally in underground channels
to the ocean-these mountains are full
of water. To run tunnel into the
mountains only a few hundreds OF
feet is to strike a splendid vein OF
water, sufficient in amount to irrigate
large tracts. There is no 'limit" to
the extent that this can be done.
Anywhere and everywhere that a
tunnel can be driven a few hundreds
of feet through the rocky ribs OF the
mountains their veins are pierced and
the crystal torrents burst forth in
plenty, to revive and gladden. vegeta-
BILE life OF every kind. This is not a
"dry" or droughty section in any
sense, and in view of the facts we are
surprised that the Aud falls back
upon this ancient fallacy.

MONEY SPENT IAvIsHLY.
Committee Clerks Get $l8 Per
Day-The Newspapers Treated
With generosity.

Special 10 the Herald b. the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, February 4.-Assistant
Acknowledgement Montgomery has rem.
dered decision regarding the appro-
priatious made by the last Arizona Leg
stature, in response 10 the representa-
ton Of the case made by Governor Zu-
lick. The decision states that the ap-
preparation for printing exceeded by
81, 407.70 the amount limited by Con
gress. Continuing, Assistant Attorney
General Montgomery says. II find that
pages, presumably small boys. were
paid s240 each, and as the Legislature
could not, under the law, sit longer than
forty days, this would be six dollars per
day, precisely the per diem. allowed by
law to tho honorable members of the
same Legislature. Again, while the law
of Congress allows chief clerks OF the
respective branches OF the Legislature
SO per day, find an assistant chief clerk
and assistant enrolling clerk in each Of
said branches, four in all, at salary OF
l.720 for forty days, making slS per
day, being Just three times the per
diem allowed by law to the honorable
members. This certainly seems TO have
been an extraordinary display OF liber.
atty, especially so in view Of the fact
that there is nothing whatever in the
documents before me to show
that the clerks made any di-
vision Of their salaries with their
muniticent benefactors. IL further ap.
pears that the higher branch of the
Legislature, although consisting Of only
twelve members, employed no less than
nineteen committee clerks at salaries
ranging from $500 to $40 each. These
salaries amounted TO 50 and Sl3 so per
day. 1t further appears that said Leg
islature appropriated S3O70.S0 to pay for
newspapers for the use OF its members,
there being thirty-six members all told.
This amounted to little over SS5 per
member, being upwards of 81 per day
each. The United States Senate Is ex-
plicit that no appropriation shall be
made by which members or officers Of
the Legislature are paid any compensa-
ton other than that provided by Con-
gress; and yet the Legislature, in the
face of this law. proceeded to appropri-
ate $40 for each member of the lower
house and 500 for each member OF the
higher" The decision Of MIR. Mont
gomery is that all OF the appropriations
enumerated above are in violation Of the
law and are void. tits not known what
action may be taken by Congress in re-
gard to the matter.

DAY DISPATCHES.

New YORK, February 4.-The snow
storm which swept down on the city
yesterday continued with little abate-
ment all night. 1t is regular Western
blizzard, and undoubtedly the worst
storm New York has experienced since
1882, the winter of the Park fire. The
streets are being rapidly filled with snow,
and the street cars are pulled along bur-
led rails with great difficulty by double
teams of horses. What adds to the diff
ficulties of the situation is the strike on
the Broadway and Seventh Avenue
Railroad, the Broadway Surface Rail
road, the Sixth Avenue Railroad and
the Fourth Avenue Railroad. No cars
have left the stables of several compa-

of the elevated railroads have been
crowded to dangerous extent all morn
ing. Many business men have been
compelled to walk down to their offices.
All the mails are delayed, especially
those from the South and West. The
Boston mails were only an hour behind
time. Some mails have not yet been
heard from:

Out OF the Times own mouth II

DURING the Presidential campaign
of 1884 Republicans were sure that
the country would go to destruction if
the Democrats succeeded in electing
Mr.. Cleveland. Now, after nearly a
year OF Democratic administration Of
public affairs mot Of rule" as
our Republican friends would say,
not only have their dire predictions
entirely failed, but the country is
more prosperous than it has been for
years. There are probably very few
Republicans that do not think away
down in the honest depths Of their
hearts that it was a good thing that
Blaine was beaten, and that there has
been change in the administration.
