MORE BuODLEn WOPK.

IF the Aldermen are not well remunerated for
the work they are doing in giving away street
railroad franchises, their conduct is inexplica-
Bile. Since the election they have been doing
rushing business in this way. Mayor Grace's
vetoes have no effect on them. No attempt is
made to answer the Mayors arguments but the
vetoes are promptly o,erruled. At each one OF
the meetings of the Board for the last few
weeks a franchise has been voted away. Yes
terday two we're granted, one over the Mayors
veto. The other will undoubtedly be vetoed.
anil then passed over the veto as usual.
When the Cantor Act was nassed last year it
was supposed that the opportunities for the
Aldermen to give away franchises were cut
short. But this seems to be delusiOn. The
General Railroad Act provides that no company
can run its cars over the line of any other COM
pany for a distance greater than 1000 feet
without the Consent of such other company.
In the franchise passed yesterday for double
track road on FGlton-st., and in the one passed
over the Mayors veto last week. the grants are
in such q way that the new roads will, it is
claimed, each run over 1000 feet on the line of
another company. Naturally no one can bid for
such a franchise without first getting the con-
ScDt OI tUe COulpduy opOi"e'bS e"S to"u "'o""y
in existence. In this way competition is shut
out. But the Corporation Counsel decides that
this is not in violation of the law Hence, by
resorting to this means the Aldermen can make
q grant exclusively in the interest of one cor
poration. which can afford to pay them well for
their work.
There is DO need of so many street railroad
companies. Fulton-st. for instance, is mar
row, crowded street, aud double-track rail-
read in it will be serious impeachment to travel
there. Ii is not to be supposed that the Alder
men are making haste to cover every street with
railroad tracks purely in the interest of the
public. II they are not Initiating their
"boocle predecessors then the crcumstantial
evidence against them is singularly misleading.
Indeed, there is talk about the District-At

Henry George is fond of discussion, and has
again presented his views In regard to land
ownership, in long letter replying to Arch
bishop Corrigan's pastoral on the subject. His
contention is that I" Land" is not the result OF
mans exerton consequently it IL not property
and man has no right to ownership in 1t. TINS
is, of course, mere quibblng over terms Ibe
Archbishop might reply that if land itself ~
not the result OF exertion, possession OF 1t gen.
orally is. But it is hardly likely that the prelate
will be drawn into controversy. He is not
running for the Mayoralty. What he meant to
saw was that the Roman Catholic Church would
not tolerate attacks upon the acknowledged
right of private ownership in land or anything
else; and he said SO clearly.

an EXiRADITION DECISION

The United States Supreme Court has de-
cided disputed point of extradition law. In
the correspondence between Mr.. Fish anu Lord
Derby respecting the surrender Of WiaslOw,
the British Government held that fugitive
criminal could be tried only for the offence for
which he was extradited. Mr.. Fish declined to
give the required guarantees protesting
against the assumed right of the British Gov
ernmont to limit by Act of Parliament the
scope of all international treaty. The effect of
this correspondence was to commit the United
States to the unsound principle that fugitive
criminal may be extradited for one offence aud
tried for another that is not included in the
treaty. There have been frequent miscarriages
of Justice of this nature, especially in the ex-
tradition Of criminals from Canada. The Dis
trict Courts Of the United States haze been
gradually falling into line and affirming the
necessity Of restricting prosecution to the crime
for which extraditon is asked. The question
has finally been considered by the highest
court, which fully sustsns tn IS view.
Chief Justice Waite dissents from the opn-
ion OF the court on the ground that he can find
In the treaty between Great Britain and the
Uaited States no prohibition OF this sort. The
treaty authorizes cxtradiiOn it does not in
the Chief Justices opinion, prescribe or limit
the conditions of trial in the country from
which the fugitive has escaped. The new treaty
negotiated p London by Mr.. Phelps contains
clause restricting prosecution after extradition
to the offence for which the fugItives surrender
Is asked. If the proposed treaty were the basis
of extradition law the Chief Justice would be-
able to concur In the judgment OF his colleagues.
But with their opinion in the Rauscher ease,
the whole controversy is brought to a close
without tia Incorporation Of the restrictive

One of the most charming and characteristic
features of Prospect Park is in danger of being
seriously impaired, il not entirely DESTROYED.

the beautiful forest trees which form chief at-
traction of the Park. Their idea-at least the
idea Of the one member of the Board who Ia
most active in this busness-is to aopeu

are animated by zeal without knowledge. The
work Of destruction has already been begnn,
and it is high time to call halt. The portions
of tho Park which it is proposed to mntilate
were planned by that accomplished landscape

norant themselves, they have not sought the
advice of gardeners competent to decide what

I The work of getting jury in the McQuade
case furnishes ample evidence OF the need OF
change in the jury laws. The question has
been frequently before tho Legislature but
practically nothing has been accomplished.
There are too many exemptions for one thing
md too much discretion is given to the Com
missioner of Jurors. This subject ought TO re-
ceiye tie attention of the next Legislature
7 Twenty -e ght manufacturers of knit goods at
Cohoes have decided to open their factories to-
day. Their attitude seems to be that each en-
ployer shall hire whom he pleases and dis
charge no one except for cause. If the mills
en- up rapidly, and with competent hands, tnis
move will strike severe blow at the power of
The Knights of Labor. Practically it only
changes the lockout into strike.
The sum of money which the Secretary Of the
Treasury thinks might be wisely spent in river
and harbor improvements during the year
1Ss7-ss is over $50 OOO,O 900. This is going in
far the old flag and an appropriation with
a vengeance. 1t will be noted, perhaps, that in
tAe fall of 1883 an important election takes
psaee IN the United States. A good many
voters could certainly be kept employed by the
expenditure of $50 1000, 900. and every one of
them would heartily support the Administration
which furnished the work. But nobody about
the Treasury Department is politician enough
II have thought of that of course.
