THE prRLTC WOEKS DEP4RTMENE

PUBLIC
We print this morning in another column
some brief arguments by William V. Smith,
Deputy Commissioner of Public Works III sup
port of bill introduced at Albany under when
it is proposed TO reOrganize the department.
and consolidate various bureaus. So far as
these changes are clearly In the public interest
and in the direction of retrenchment IHE
TRIBUNE is heartily in favor of them. IL is
perfectly true that the department is full OF
antiGuated and cumbrous machinery, and its
efficiency suffers seriously from the clogs and
burdens left as legacies by Hubert 0. Thomp-
son. Mr.. Squire and Mr.. Smith have made re-
ductions In the working force within the last
few weeks and have cut down expenses, without
essening the practical results accomplished.
They have incurred the violent hostility OF the
leaders of the County Democracy by 80 doing.
Every effort to administer municipal depart
ment on business principles is sure to excite the
epmity of that organization, the most corrupt
and injurious in its influence of all the political
organizations which New York has known
since the time of Tweed. When public
official is denounced by the men who rule the
County Democracy, the chances are that he is
trying to do right. If Mr. Squire and Mr.
Smltu WISH 10 NCll III bhS NPii'4i' Va ''iO
public spirited taxpayers, they will continue to
do all in their power to defeat County Democ-
racy schemes and jobs.
SO far then as the bill introduced by Assem-
blvman Bruins makes easier the task OF re-
organizing the Department of Public Works in
the direction of greater economy and efficiency,
| it deserves hearty support. But we DO not be-
| lieve in adding to the powers OF the department
at present or in putting under its control any
streets or parts of the city now in charge ol
other departments. If the bill is passed all
changes of that sort should be removed by
amendment. The Public Works Department Is
already enormous and unwieldy. To use It's
vast powers and resources Alright Is task for
mdablc enough to engage the utmost ability
and zeal of the Commissioner and his Deputy,
Until the department is purified ana improved
in every nook and corner of Its tremendous
structure, and its machinery is put IN such
order that there will be no hitch or jar in It's
workings, the sphere of its operations should
not be extended. If Mr.. Squire and Mr.. Smith
succeed in so reforming and eleyatinS it as to
make it a model for other departments, then
they may fairly ask that n still wider field OF
usefulness shall be opened to them. And not

REDTCJyG CITY Salaries.

sFrancis NJ. Scott is well known to be in the
confidence of Mayor Grace and to represent nm
at Albany. his being the case, we are not sur
priscd that Mr.. Scott has been opposing the
Public Burdens act introduced by Robert Ray
Hamilton, chairman Of the Assembly Commit
tee on Cities. This bill proposes to reduce by
ten per cent salaries paid by the city to the
aggregate amount of $I,5O0,0 900 annually.
The bill would thus save to the city treasury
S45O,OOO per year, although the policemen,
firemen and school teachers are especially eX-
empted from its operations.
Every one knows that in nearly all OF the
municipal departments there Is great extraya-
gance, prodigality and waste. For amount
and value of work actually performed this city
is the most liberal paymaster anywhere to be
found. Its spendthrift bounty goes so far as to
be vicious and demoralizing. Its scale of re-
muneratOn is rs a rule many times higher than
that of the State or National Government Re
trenchment is sadly needed, and the only effect
i've way of securing it is by such n hard and
fast measure as that introduced by Mr. liamll-
ton. If any Official or board in this city ls a.
lowed discretion in reducing salaries favorlt-
ism will appear instantly and little Will be
saved. The taxpayers now know well no"
NayOr Grace rewards his favOrites. Mr. Ham
iltoD's bill should become a law. One of the
many good reasons for this is that neither TIE
Nayor nor any board III which his influence
prevails can be trusted to carry out any plan OF
reform without prejudice or partiality. City
salaries must be cut down, and Mr.. Hamilton
plan is fairest for all concerned.

The effect of the General Master Workman
secret circular to the Knights of Labor protest
ing against unnecessary strikes Is having
marked effect among the discOntented shoe
makers at Lynn. The 1000 or more men who
have been thrown out of work there accuse
their leaders of folly in ordering a strike and
boycott which take employment from many
men not directly concerned in the matter at Is
sue The manufacturers, on their part, accuse
the Knights leaders of bad faith in having
commanded a strike before complaining o.
grievances, as they had agreed to do. With
both employees and employers against the lead
ers of the organization, there ought not to DC
much trouble in settling the difficulty.

U1TER-TIGHT MAILBAGS.

The great loss and Inconvenience to business men
caused by the sinking Of 50 large an amount Of
mail matter in the Oregon suggests the desrablIlty
of improvements in the manufacture OF mali-bas9
for ocean use. There is no reason why these recep
taces should not be made water tight. There are
pIentv of materials to choose from in ettectug the
change. 1t might involve some extra outlay,
tbougk that is not certain. The leather mail-Dags
now empoyed could be used for land service, and
waterproof material would perhaps not be more
costly than the present kind. II would be ncces.
sary so tO construct the bags that when closed no
entrance for water would be left. This would de-
mand ingenuity, but it is certainly practicable
and there can be doubt that whatever 1t cost to
make the change would be more than offset by the
increased security obtained for the mail matter =
In these days mails are so heavy, and 50 many
valuable documents of all kinds entrusted to the
Post Office that the sudden elimination OF the nun
drcds of bags carried by one of the ocean steamers
creates widespread embarrassment, trou pe and in
jury The fact that such disasters seldom does
not weaken the argument for whatever precanton-
ary measures would render them les mischieyOus
If the mail-bags used at sea were waterproof the
sinking of them even for several days would not, in
the majority OF cases materially injure their con
tents and it would be worth while to take steps for
their rescue even after the lapse of considerable
time As it IS the mail matter is 50 little protected
against water that If by any accident sea should
fud entrance to the mail-room Of steamer. though
the latter was not wrecked, the mails might DO
greatly damaged. All business men would doubt
less concur in lndorsing Il demand for more com
plcte protection of the mails, and the adoption
of vater-tight mailbags is obvious ana practical
n device that it should recommend itself to the
postal authorities without further argument.

HOP IN BEL AIR.

The young men of Bel Air held the first of
their pleasant summer hops in the Town Hall,
tuesday night. The attendance was com
paratively small, as several Of the Bel Air Young
ladies, pleading fatigue from the Bazaar of last
week, decided to remain at home. They were
unable, however, 10 absent themselves altogeth-
or, and during the early part of the evening, in
their street costumes, they occupied the benches
as an audience, attended by some of the blase
young men who have given up hop-going. At
ter the usual order of dancing, about half past
twelve the German was started by Mr. John A.
W. Richardson, gracefully assisted by Miss Fan
ME Archer. Several strange ladies were pres
ent, who SO graced the occasion, that one might
have imagined that they were really natives of

A Sharp Debate.

An exciting debate took place in the House,
last Friday, between Messrs., Compton and
Findlay. The latter charged that ex-Post-
master Veazey, of Baltimore, under his con-
struction of the civil service rules, in less
space than year turned out every Republi-
can in the postoffice and put a Democrat in
his place, without missing fire once Mr..
Compton defended Postmaster Veazey with
much warmth The civil-service commission,
he said, had sought by every effort and every
means 1t could employ to show that Mr. Yea
zey had violated the law of that service be-
cause he had removed from office a lot of po-
litical scalawags and unprincipled scoundrels
the associates Of his colleague in last fall
campaign, when he (Mr. Findlay) had sought
to defeat the Democratic ticket. s.
Taken all in all, Mr. Findlay got the worst
of the argument. t.
