The Ohio Legislature, the same as
that of Pennsylvania, has killed the
bill excluding dressed meats from that
State, and 1t 10 probable that a bill of
this kind will be killed in every State
where II is presented. The advent OF
Western meat, ready dressed, into our
markets has had the effect Of greatly
decreasing the price, and therefore
Legislatures should not attempt 10 in
terfere with It. But some means should
be taken TO know thai this meat is
good and wholesome, for if 1t is not, it
will be dear al any price. II there is
any Just reason TO suppose that un-
healthy cattle are slaughtered st the
Chicago yards aud their meat sent out
over the country, 1t would be well for
Congress TO make the inspection Of the
cattle before they are slaughtered, aud
also the meat afterwards, a matter OF
Federal supervision, as 1t is clearly the
duty of the Government to do all In its
power to provide the people with
healthy, unadulterated food. II is only
question OF time before ali the meat
used In this country will be slaughter.

The suit Of william H. Robinson vs.,

The suit OF William H. Robinson VS..
the Mayor and Council Of Whining
ton has brought out several facts that
Il will be well for our citizens to heed
In the future. This is an action to re-
cover damages Tor injuries which II is
alleged the plaintiff sustained by fall
Ing in hole in the pavement. When
the jury was drawn Mr.. Bird, the at
torney for the plaintiff, objected 10
several on the ground that as they
were residents and tax payers OF this
city they were interested parties and
consequently incompetent to serve as
Jurors. This point was decided in his
hvor by the court and this decision
gives rise to the question, where would
ajury be obtained 10 try n case against
the county, Every man in the county
rs, or should be tax payer, and
therefore If a suit was brought against
the county 1t seems that according to
this decision we would have TO 20 to
Kent or Sussex county for jury. Ac-
eording to the same rule if suit was
brought against the State we would
be obliged to ask one of the adjoining
Bates TO loan us dozen men 70 try ii
for US.
Another question is the responsible.
ty Of citizens In cases of this kind
Ot course If there was such a thing as
Mr.. Robinson obtaining the SIS, 900
which he claims, the pro rata share of
every man, woman and child in this
city would be about 20 cents. 1t
therefore seems that it is the duty of
every citizen who may notice hole in
the sidewalk or street, to notify the
proper authorities at once, and then il
they do not attend to it, ii seems moth.
Ing more than just that they, instead
OF the city should be held personally
responsible for any damage that might
result. There are now a half dozen
or more suits against the city, the ma
jority of which are the result Of the
negligence Of city officials, and /,
scarcely seems just that when the city
employs and pays men to transact its
business, 1t should be held responsible
for their failure to perform that duty.

COIL IND RAGES.

There has been much outcry OF late, especial
ly among Democratic politicians and journal
lists, about the intolerably low wages paid in
Pennsylvania coal mines. The coal barons, ii
has been said, being protected by the tariff,
plumber the public in the price charged for
coal, and plumber the miners in the low wages
imposed. The ignorance Of such criticism may
be in part apprehended when it "a remembered
that no duties whatever protect anthracite coal
producers, who have TO meet competition from
the producers of other coal costing in this
country less than half as much. The official
report for the last year shows that the actual
value Of anthracite mined was but 81 90 per
ton, but in the same State, Pennsylvania, the
average value Of bituminous coal mined was
but 95 cents, in Maryland the same, and in
Ohio SO cents per ton.
The question as TO actual wages paid is less
easily settled, and yet abundant evidence il
accessible for any who honestly desire it. A
short time ago, for example, there was con-
tributed 10 1.-THE Engineering and Mining
Journal table taken from the actual pay
rolls Of Schuylkill County colliery for the
year 1888, showing the exact amount earned
By each individual, the number OF days work
and the average rate per day Of ten hours, the
figures being in every case net wages, after de-
Quoting the cost Of all powder and supplies The
following shows the actual earnings of the ten
who earned most during the year, and also Of
the ten who earned least, at this colliery:

xEW MADISON SQUARE GARDEN.


The enterprise Of erecting upon the site of
the Madison Square Garden huge building de-
voted to rational and instructive diversions now
seems sure of being carried out, after long
period of deliberation. Three-ffths of the
necessary capital has been guaranteed by men
Of such standing in the community that it is
natural to expect q cordial response on the part
Of the general public, which is now invited to
share in the undertaking. In spite of all it's
drawbacks it is hard to see how this city could
have got along during the last ten years with
out the Madison Square Garden. 1t has, to be
sure, been the scene of many exhibitions of
human greed and folly which we could well
have spared, but it has also furnished accommo-
dations unobtainable elsewhere for many en-
tertainments which we could have ill.afforded
to lose
The proposed structure win supply the prime
demand for great inclosed space, which has
been the one merit aside from its location, Of
tho existing structure, and in every other con-
ceivable respect it viii be splendid acquisi-
tion. 1t has long been matter Of regret, If
not Of reproach, that q site 50 large, 60 &C.
cessiblc and 30 central should be occupied By
50 shabby and ill-conditioned building. An
edifice more unbecoming to great city and
more unworthy Of its dignity, intelligence and
fberality probably exists nowhere on the face
OF the earth. It's indispensableness for GER
tain important uses has alone made 1t toIerabIe,
and the plan TO replace IL by noble and COM
manding pile, admirably adapted for the varied
purposes Of public instruction and amusement

ELEVATED ROADS ON THE VEST SIDE
Mr.. Lawson N. Fuller, who is an earnest
advocate of rapid transit, calls for an elevated
road up Tenth-ave. to Kingsbridge- Other
propositions have been made from time to time
for the building of an elevated road upon the
Boulevard. Evidently the few broad avenues
lying between Central Park and the Hudson
River are in some danger of undergoing the
same gobbling process that has been so effect
lively carried on further downtown.
We believe public sentiment to be firmly OPP
posed to the building of any more elevated
roads, but il there is any quarter OF the city
in which an addition to the number would be
particularly unfortunate, it would be in that
choice section known as the West Side. This
promises to be for many years to como dis
tinctively residence section, with only enough
of trade to supply its local wants. 1t has been
mostly built up since the recent development
in domestic architecture began, and, as re-
suit, there is more diversity than in any other
quarter of the city and while variety does not
always mean beauty, the West Side is taken
altogether, section OF handsome homes These
are multiplying rapidly, giving that part Of the
town picturesqueness and interest not to be
found in the older quarters, which were built
when brown-stone fronts were turned out in
long rows as much like each other as bullets
from the same mould To build an elevated
road on the Boulevard would destroy one Of
our most beautiful avenues, which ought to be
preserved just as it is for all time To build ono
on Tenth-ave. would simply sacrifice another
broad street to little purpose. Two elevated
roads would not carry passengers appreciably
faster than one. They might make 1t prac-
ticable to carry passengers in greater comfort
for a time, but the growth Of the city would
probably catch up with the new road by the
time it was built and we should have two
crowded roads instead of one.
1t must not be forgotten that the problem Of
comfortable accommodations for passengers
moving to and fro on this island may be found
to be well-nigh insoluble. The peculiar con-
formation of the city makes it necessary to
carry large majority Of the business population
backward and forward along the same line
morning and evening, instead Of distributing
them in all directions, as in most other great
cities. 1t may be that when we get our real
| rapid-transt roads built, we shall find them
| crowded, TOO, though they are not likely to be
so badly choked as the elevated roads Of to-day.
But If they can run swift express trains instead
of the jog-trot accommodation trains, to which
the elevated roads are limited by the nature Of
their structure, the discomforts Of the morning
and evening journeys will at least be of shorter
| duration.
