THE FREE BRIDGE BILL.

The House has passed the Free
Bridge bill with amendments in which
the Senate may or may not concur II
is TO be hoped no differences will arise
that may not readily be adjusted in
conference. The House is unques.
tionably right in rejecting the pro-
vision for draw The necessities of
navigation do not require it.
But why the proportion of the cost
of construction fixed by the Senate
should have been changed we cannot
understand The Senate provided
that the District should pay one
fourth. The House, on motion of Mr..
Reagan, raised this amount to one
half. Upon what reasonable ground
this change is made we doubt If even
the gentleman from Texas could tell
us. 1t is not at all probable that the
Senate will agree to 1t or that full
House would have voted it.
1t is certainly strange proceeding
tia in matter like this-the con-
struction of free bridge over the Po-
tomac to connect the National Capital
with the South, and virtually bring the
two sections of the Union together
without the Intervention of o toll.
gate-such question should have been
raised in the Congress of the United
States as to whether the people of
Washington should be taxed to pay
one fraction or another of the expense.
1t would have been entirely proper for
the Government TO have assumed the
whole. 1t is q National structure.
There is really no more reason why the
taxpayers of the District should be
called on to contribute TO this improve
ment than to the reclamation of the
Potomac flats or the building of new
city postoflice. The bridge is for the
whole people, and not merely for the
accommodation of Fairfax, Loudon
and Alexandria counties, Virginia, and
even were there no citizens here out
side of official circles, the Government
would still need the bridge.
There will be no widespread or vio-
lent complaint, however, whether the
sum is finally fixed at fourth or a
half The bridge must be had, even if
the District has to stand the whole bill.
1t is only the principle of the thing
that we most object to-that the people
of the District should be taxed half for
the benefit of the country at large and
the Government half for its own par.
ticular benefit.
The Washington critic., 1886-05-11

any possibility possess. 1t Is the de-
vclopment Of practical thought from
practical knowledge, and is lesson in
thinking which every laboring man in
this country who is honest and fair,
and Just aud industrious should learn
from beginning to end. 1t embodies
the principle on which may be settled
every business issue between labor and
capital, and between labor and labor,
and is worthy of all commendation. 1t
teaches TO capital as well lesson of
moderation and justice which must be
learned before peace and prosperity will
bless the land.

reached in the House, it was stated

ested in this question were out at the

The prospects are that 1t will be indef-
nitely postponed us all such fool lcgis-

MIR, GLADSTONE AGAIN.

The subject Of Home Rule came up
again in the House of Commons last
night on Mr.. Gladstone's motion for
second reading Of his bill. Those who
have been predicting weakness and
even retrograde movement on the
part of the Premier, when the discus
sion was resumed must have been
greatly surprised and taken aback. Mr..
Gladstone was as fully and firmly
equipped for the debate as any friend
of Home Rule could desire. He re-
affirmed the statement heretofore made
by him that nothing was contemplated
by the Government leading to sever
ance Of the empire. On the contrary,
what was proposed would tend to weld
IFS component parts inseparably to-
gether.
1t had been proved beyond doubt,
he said, that the great majority of the
Irish people of Ireland wanted self.
government; and Mr.. Parnell had
given assurances that all that was
sought under that name was the au.
tonomy Of Ireland. He drew a parallel
between Ireland and the Dominion of
Canada, saying that before the latter
obtained Home Rule she was in Just
such a mood as Ireland now is. The
Dominion did not get Home Rule be-
cause she was loyal but she was loyal
because she secured that right. But
Mr.. Gladstone was strongest when he
dealt with his opponents. That fac
tion has been saying and saying again
tha, the affairs of Great Britain are in
"a critical position and making all sorts
of gloomy forecasts. But there they
have stopped. TO those gentlemen
Mr. Gladstone spoke directly in the
persons of Churchill and Harrington.
Tie path of boldness had become the
path of safety, he said; and then he
appealed to Lord Harrington to an.
nounce plan if he had one, He spoke
Of The opponents of his measure de.
nouncing his proposed methods and
admitting at the same time that some
thing must be done, but having no dc.
finite idea Of what that something
should be. He wanted them to show
a way out of the difficulty if they knew
of any. They evidently have no such
plan, for Mr.. Gladstone was not an.
swered even by hint or suggestion.
BY thus pointedly bringing the matter
home Mr.. Gladstone greatly strength.

Cooperation for sewing-women.

EDITOR CRITIC Your most excellent
editorial of Saturday in behalf of INDECENT
good women suggests that a cooperative
womens sewing society or circle, where
all kinds of outer aud under clothes could
be cleaned and repaired, If not made, at
reasonable compensation, not starvation
prices as paid by tailors, would be worthy
trial in this and all large cities.
For instance, man wants a waistcoat or
pantaloons or drawers or shirts repaired or
made or cleaned, and has the requisite ma
terials. II such cooperative shop were
here in this city, many charitable men
would go to II and thus assist these deserv-
ing women. Permit me to express the hope
that you will try to induce some good
women to try such cooperative shop in
Washington. II. c. B.

THE NEW YORK PRESS.

The Herdtd this morning says, In regard to
the Issue forced by Canada: "Our first
step must be to reach an understanding with
Great Britain whether she ratifes or dlsavows
her colony's seizure of our vessel If she dis
avows II, the trouble will come quickly to an
end. If she ratihes 1t, the bills introduced
into Congress yesterday by Senator Frye and
Representative Dingley Of Maine are de
signed to invest the President with a power
adapted TO the occasion"
The Tribune says "The policy advocated
by Mr.. Powderly is the only one which can
bring the order tKnights of Labor real iphu
ence and power for good. If it should be
found necessary TO expel the advocates of
violence, and to relegate them to the society
Of the Anarchists. toward whom they are
tending, the organization would lose nothing
by the change"
The Sun says: "The first AMI instant duty
of the present Congress has been and Is to
provide for a system of national self-dafense.
Millions for Jobs, but not Il cent for
national defense, Is that to be the motto ana
epitaph Of the Forty'nlnth Congress ~
The sStdr believes that the objections to
the River and Harbor bill are unreasonable
and that the Government ought to be gen
erous In its expenditures. There are more
appropriations In the bill that are worthy than
all the little items which have been picked
out by It's opponents for criticism"
The World says Capitalists are being
taught most expensive lesson, TO the effect
that the demands of Labor are always 10 be
carefully considered and Justly treated. Bat
the moral OF tho occasion points in the other
direction as well. The losses of Labor are
very great also II Is meet time for
both Capital and Labor TO reflect upon their
errors and put an end 10 them before things
grow worse than they are.n
The Times, after reviewing tho various pen
sion projects now before the Senate calling
for hundreds Of millions Of additional ex.
pendlures, says; "The fact that the Nation Is
surplus was less than sis,OOOOoo last year
seems to have been forgotten by certain SEN
ators who ought to bear such things in
