TIE LICK OBSERVATORY.

We call the special attention of our readers
10 an admirable letter on the sixth page In
which Professor Edward s. Holden describes
tho great Lick Observatory, now nearing COM
nlc,ion ON Mt. Hamilton, California. 1t is inn
nossible to read Professor Holden's letter with
out sharing his enthusiasm, or without hearty
apprcciation of the good fortune that has
nlared him at the head of the University OF
California, to which this superb gift to as
Economical science more particularly belongs.
MIR. Lick set apart 100000 for the accom-
phshment of his noble purpose, and when the
work of construction and equipment has been
complecd about 100000 will remain for an
endowment fund. The income derived from
this source will be far from sufficient for the
constant employment OF all the resources OF
the Observatory but there is some compcnsa-
ton for this present waste in the TACT that the
trustees will thus find amplcr opportunity TO
carry out their purpose OF welcoming 10 MI.
hamilton as resident Observers for stated perl
OILS eminent astronomers from other lands.
Every detail of Professor lloldcns descnp-
ton will be read with interest, but his sug-
gcstion Of the wonders which tho Photographic
lens NAV reveal and record is enough TO cX-
cite the imagination and stir the pulses. The
transformation at will Of the great telescope
of the world into a gigantic camera is an al
most romantic exercise of power. From first
TO last the undertaking now practically
achieved has brought nothing but credit TO
those associated in it. The spirit in which
the enterprise originated the fidelity with
which the trust has been administered the
know ledge which has directed the work the
precision which has characterized every process
and the skill which will employ the resources
thus gathered for the benefit Of the world
all combine to make the Lick Observatory
ono Of the most perfect and potent instrument
alitics ever placed at the service Of science.

THE DEPUTY CoMMIssIoNERsHIp.

1t would scarcely have been necessary again
to refer to the subject OF General Ncwton's
appointment Of his deputy in the Public Works
Department had not he himself. unless he is
misrepresented by al least two of our morning
contemporaries. given the public to understand
that he contemplatcs filling the place with d.
Lowber Smith. We earnestly advise General
Newton. not less for his own sake than for
the publics, to abandon any such idea 1t is
with a long sigh Of relief that the public well
comes the Generals accession to this much
prstituted department Of the city government,
and it entcrtalns high expectations OF what
he is to accomplish First Of ALL the essential
lightning Of everything else, it expects him to
lift tho department away above the abomln-
able plane Of immoral politics into the sphere
of honest, businessllke effort to serve the peo-
po without the slightest concern for what
the "halls" and tho bosses think or say.
But if General Newton begins his career in
Office by appointing D. Lowbcr Smith his chief
representative, he will make serious mistake.
and afford keen disappointment to the general
public. He should secure for that Office
man who occupies as nearly his own place in
the public esteem as he can find. Mr.. Smith
is by no means such man. He did very well
for Hubert O.. ThompsOn's deputy. He is of
Thompson's kind He is fine specimen OF
what our factional politics develops. He served
Thompson as a spy upon Squire, and upon
Thompson's death he transferred his allegiance
to Mayor Grace. 1t is well known that all
his backing comes from that element of
the County Democracy controlled by Grace,
and if he is appointed in the face OF the unan-
mous popular hope that the dav Of political
dctaton in that Office is done. the public will
be forced to conclude that General Newton is
not the kind of man they think he is.

tuyins out the Irish landlords at the expense

buying out the Irish landlords ut the expense
of the English people.
Undoubtedly Mr.. Gladstone would have made
this announcement In Parliament before the
second reading, II no could have prevailed
upon Lord Spencer and Mr.. Morley to accept
his Judgment The first election address which
he delivered was interpreted as remuneration
OF the Land bill and when it was followed
at Newcastle by Mr.. Morley's reafiirmation
Of the Governments original policy, the Min
istry were placed in an equivocal position
A reconstruction Of the Cabinet was imprac-
tcable at that stage Of the controversy, and
Mr.. Gladstone in his Manchester speech was
compelled to revise his previous utteranccs
and to reinstate the Land bill as vital part
of his Irish policy. Dir. Morley remained
Irish Secretary. but thousands OF votes In Eng
land and Scotland were transferred to tho
Unionist candidates. Now that Mr.. Gladstone
is leader Of the Opposition. he returns TO the
platform of his first Midlothian speech. The
constituencies he contends have decided that
Home Rule and land purchase are not to be
combined.
This declaration, while it may be quoted tenn
porarily TO Mr.. Gladstone's disadvantage as an
other proof of his readiness to repudate for
mer pledges, will strengthen the Home Rule
party in Parliament 1t removes the chief
barrier between the Gladstonians and Mr.
Chamberlain's followers, who objected prlm-
a,ily to land purchase "a entailng enormous
financial burdens on the English people. IL
will also clear the ground and leave the OPP
position at liberty to critcise and condemn the
Tory project for indcmnlfying landlords at the
expense Of the Treasury.
