About the only idea which the Ncw-Yoril
public has of the new aqucduct is gathered
from the petty squabblcs in the Aqucduct
Board, and the impression naturally prevails
that, excepting the cost, it is a comparatively
small Job A more correct notion of the char
actcr of the undertaking, however, may be
gathered from an article printed on the eleventh
page of this paper, describing visit to one
of the aaucduct shafts at South IOnkers.
This makes clear the greatness of the enter

Observers Of English politics allow them
selves to be encouraged. Mr.. 7. p O'COnnor
suggests chat the Irish tenants will be modcr-
ate and reasonable. probably, if the Irish land
lords are the same he advises the former to
accept reductions of from 20 10 80 per cent on
rents and to pay up, if by any possibility they
can arrange to do so. The significance of these
statements lies in the fact that Mr.. OConnor
is the elcctionccring agent of the Irish party
in England, and is often brought IN close con-
tact with the friends of Ireland in the Liberal
party He is also the near friend of Mr.. Par
nell. 1t looks. therefore, as if the English
Home Rule Liberals were throwing their IN
fucncc AGAINST no-rcnt campaign and It's con-
sequences. and that Mr. Parncll was in sym
patty with their views But will the landlords
have reason and refrain from eyiclions when
possible

that the day after he nominated he had an

politics of the State as late either of those

II is not clear how indicting three of the
Kings County Commissioners OF Charities ana
Correction is going to remedy the overcrowd-
ing of the Fatbush Insane Asylum. That the
institution has tried to care for too many pa
tents has been notorious for years but adj
ditionai accommodations have not been pro-
yided and the Commissioners have not been
able to build for themselves. They should have
declined to receive any more patients; but
their failure to refuse hardly constitutes
crime. The Kings County grand jurors have
probably grown weary of making prescntments
on the subject, and thought they would see
what an indictment would do. This is little
hard on The indicted Commissioners. but their
trial may call attention to the overcrowdine
at the asylum in such way as to remedy
the abuse.

Society.
A worthy namesake Of the populaE Afien
Singing Society, of the Heights, is the
Arion Ladies' Society, composed of the
wives and daughters of the singers. While

their vocal abilities, the latter have directed
all their energies towards aiding the poor
and destitute in their district-tha Fourth

commendahle socisty has rescued hundreds
who died in INDECENT circumstances from
pauper graves, and given them respectable

No intelligent reader Of the Anarchists
disturbances will confound the men who
are responsible for the disgraeeful violence
that has marked them with the men who
are engaged in the labor movements Of the
day, They are no more related to the
honest labor of the country than the still
letto of the assassin ia related 10 the plough
share of the husbandmap. While there
may be differences of opinion as to the
proper method of meeting the questions
presented by the industrial classes, there
can be no two ways Of dealing with these
social deamens, whose cresd teaches mnr-
der, and arson and thieving as its central
doctrine. They should be stamped out
with an iron heel. They believe In the
equal distribution of property. and so re-
spect none or the laws by which society
protects men in the enjoyment OF their
estates. Revolution is the one principle
of government they recognize, and so they
respectnone Of the safeguards with which
government surrounds society. Their
methods are secret and plotting, cowardly
and unmanly; attacking men, IL they at
tack them at all. only when they arc I'M
warned, and not scrupling to humble
them by the murder OF their wives ard
children. Their weapon is the torch,
when il can be used against sleeping vic
TINS; the dagger, when it can thrust in
the back; the bomb, when it can be hurled
from ambush. They are the modern
Ishmeite, whose hand Is against every
man; and every mans hand should be
against them. They should be hunted
from, their holes and trodden under foot
like the vermin they are. Society cans
afford to let the refnements Of civilization
stand in its way in dealing with these des-
perate and cowardly outlaws.
