Mr.. Boyle, Chairman of the PanElectric In
vesigating Committee, has difficult task to
perform in the preparation of his report. His
party expects him to wbitewash the Pan
Electric statesmen. How to do this in the face
we'll appal stouter heart. AS Mr.. Boyle has
been practically defeated for renominationihe
might better seek the good opinion of his coun-
trymen rather than the favor of a Pan Electric
Administration.
1t is to be regretted that Mr.. Morton did not
find it consistent with his other engagements
tC accept the craftsmanship of the Republican,
County Committee He would have made an
excellent chairman, and would have brought to
the place integrity and ability as well as pOpu-
larity The expression of hope on the part of
members of the committee that he may yet be
able to arrange his engagements so as to recon-
slider his determination not to accept will be
generally shared by the party.
Ludlow Street Jail is to become less of a
horror to poor debtors, as the bill amending the
law regarding imprisonment for debt has been
signed by the Governor. Hereafter six months
is to be the limit of imprisonment on arrests in
civil actions. Within five days all prisoners
who have been incaIcerated for that length of
time on such actions III this State are to be re-
leased 1t is q cause for regret that such a
worthy reform should have been so long de-
layed.
All yachtSmen VIII whistle Tor WIND TO-
day, for to-day, for the first time the four big
sloops are all brought together. The four
finest specimens of yacht architecture in
America if not in the world will try their rela
tive merits over the New-York Yacht Club
course. This course is unfortunately not
good one for fairly testing the yachts, the wind
in the Upper and Lower Bays being almost
always unsteady and the tides and currents
playing too important part in vessels pro-
pulsion. Still there is good stretch OF open
water from Sandy Hook to the Lightship and if
there is sufficient wind shall learn some
thing definite as To what our pet yachts can do.
Governor Hill appears to have acted on
settled policy in dsposing of the 40 bills be-
fore him at the expiration OF the thirty days
after the adjournment of the Legislature.
One-ha!f of them he approved, and the other
half failed for lack of his signature. Among
the measures signed is the one appropiiating
$500, 900 to enlarge canal locks. This is I'M
porlant as indicating the Governors approval
of the policy of improving this waterway. The
bill to secure adequate compensation for street
railway franchises and the one to encourage
the growth of circulating libraries are among
the principal acts signed. number of
equally important measures have been allowed
u fail without any explanation OF Executive
disapproval. The temperance people had no
teason To expect anything whatever from the
