THE GAIN In MORALITY.

DR.. Howard Crosby's recent declaration
that the moral condition of our cities has
been improving for the past fifty years at
tracts good deal of attention, and right
fully so. 1t may be calculated to provoke
the comment that if New York, for instance,
is better than it used to be, it is a wonder
that it ever escaped the fate of the cities of
the plain; but it will be sufficiently crafty
ing to the hopeful sentiment in society to
cause its general acceptance.
In the main, too, it is undoubtedly correct.
We have faith in the theory of social eyolu-
tion by which the element of virtue is stead
lily strengthened and the more obvious
forms of vice are gradually stamped out. But
it is question whether the process is a
steady one, or whether there are not ebbs
ana flows in the work of reform. AS COM
pared with fifty years ago we may be better;
but as compared with twenty or thirty years
ago, are vice and crime much diminished?
Another question is whether if actual
and recognized vice of the grosser
forms is diminished, there is not as much
or more of that which produces crime,
namely, unscrupulousness in the higher
levels of society. Are men not Just as
ready to make money without regard to the
rights of others as they were in the last
generation? And does not the administra-
tion of the law turn its blind eve to illegal
operations which have successfully heaped
up great fortunes and direct its punishments
solely to the manipulators and combines
who have come to ruin in their endeavors to
attain financial greatness by similar means?
However these questions may be an
swered, one thing is certain. Whatever
progress has been made in the improvement
of society has been secured by the exposure
of its evils and the attack upon injustice,
dishonesty and wrong wherever it exists.
There is still plenty Of room for improve
ment; and the critics of evil in the present
day are furnishing the influence which, if
effective, will make the next generation
better than this, as this is better than its
predecessor.

PITTsBURG, SUNDAY, OCT. ID, 1889.
SAFETY OF ELECTRIC LIGHT WIRES.

1t is pleasant to be assured, as the public
is, by the gentlemen in charge of the electric
lighting of the Pittsburg streets, that our
wires are safe against such terrible fatalities
as are occurring almost daily in the streets OF
New York. Even although the assurance
must be taken with the allowance due to a
necessarily er pdrte statement, there is some
mitigation for the absence of all effort to put
the wires of this city under ground in the
belief that the killing by electricity is not
likely to begin at once.
The statement is corroborated by the fact
that fatalities from electric light wires in
Pittsburg have been comparatively rare
One case, two or three years ago, is all that
can be recalled at present; and so far, at
least, Pittsburg seems to be free from the
dangers which surround the unwary pedes-
trian in New York. But what is the guar
antee that this immunity will be perpetual?
Is the insulation of our wires indestructi-
bic? Are there none, like those in New
York, which are safe at first, but when ex-
posed TO the weather become unsafe? If a
wire is broken by storms, will the exposed
end on the ground contain no perils?
These are questions which can only be an
.swered by experience, and an unfavorable
answer would involve too great cost of life
to make it permissible to take any chances
The only adequate and permanent security
is to be gained by the safe disposition of all
wires in underground conduits, as is being
done in New York.

THE GAS PROBLEM,

The subject of gas shortage naturally takes
a good deal of prominence, and various
theories more or less satisfactory are pre-
sented to explain the very undesirable fail
ures to furnish fuel during the past week.
One gentleman, prominent in the gas
business and supposed to be especially
versed on the field of production, is quoted
as declaring that there is no lack of gas at
the wells. The insuficiency is, in this
view, to be found in the lack of pipeage
facilities, the trouble being that consump-
ton has largely increased while the exten-
sion of pipes has not kept pace with it.
This explanation affords hope of remedy
for the difficulty when the new mains are
opened; but it places the responsibility for
the shortage directly on the companies. The
gas business should by this time have
reached a stage when the companies can
gauge their sales somewhat closely in &C.
cordance with their capacity to supply their
customers.
Another explanation comes from both the
critics and the friends of the gas companies,
in somewhat changed form, but practically
amounting to the same thing. In gas cir
cles it is declared that the shortage would
be much ameliorated it the waste of gas was
prevented by the use Of meters; and from
the opposition it is intimated that If the
companies were as anxious to keep up the
pressure as they are to keep up prices and
introduce meters, the trouble would not
exist. Both views may have good deal of
foundation. There has been great waste of
gas; and the meter system, properly sup
piled, is the most equitable way of selling
the gas. But the meter system should be
introduced so as to make it an object for
consumers, instead of burden. When the
price is actually increased. the consumers
charged IS for a job in setting the meter
that does not cost the companies much over
a dollar, and forced to expend from $25 to
S1oo each in improved appliances with little
prospect of getting it back, the course of the
companies does not seem calculated to con-
ciliate public opinion.
However true these explanations may be
and we think that they are all of some
force-they do not give the gas officials much
justification for talking about the disap-
pearance of the supply. By such talk they |
place themselves in the attitude of either |
having thrown away large amounts of the |
corporations money in pipe extensions if
true, or of depressing the companv's stock |
by false reports if untrue.

Is JUSTICE POssIRLEi

If one-halt the reports that come from
Chicago concerning the Cronin case be true
the court there is confronted with the most
inscriptions organization to defy the law
and render tree government impossible, that
has ever been known in this country. The
statement in yesterdays dispatches that
two of the bailifs employed In summoning
talesman had been detected in fixing Jury
men in favor of the defense, is, if true, a
remarkable display of determination to
override justice, 1t may be well to remem-
Der that, just at present, Chicago is in a
state of mind to believe anything about the
Cronin case, no matter on how slight foun-
dations. For that reason it is enough to
say that if such plot has been discovered
in the surroundings of the court itself, not
only the bailiffs should be promptly sent to
the penitentiary, but the men who employed
them should be ferreted out and made to
bear them company.

RFE0RN BY RIOT

A decided and indeed violent determine
ton to establish temperance reform is re-
ported from the usually peaceful little
village of Lafayette, o. That place passed
an ordinance prohibiting the sale of liquor,
and closed all the saloons; but a LIQUOR
dealer from another town opened a small
speak-easy and continued selling despite all
warnings. Legal proceedings against him
failed by the ruling of the Court against the
legal authority of the ordinance. Finally a
crowd of some hundreds of people gathered
at the place and tore the saloon into such
small pieces that there is hardly enough of
it left TO swear BY. The impression is that
it would be hard to get a jury that would
convict the rioters, and the saloon business
seems to be wound up at that place.
This exhibits passionate and, in the ab-
stract, praiseworthy attachment to total
abstinence principles; but it takesa material
form that is decidedly Objectionable.
Drunkenness is bad thing, but it is worth
while to remember that there are worse
things. Defiance of law, the settlement of
social disputes by appeals to force, the rule
of the mob and the violent seizure of other
peoples property are, anyone of them, more
destructive of social morals and more VIOLA
tive of the rights Of fellow-men than the re-
sort to alcoholic stimulation. The people
of Lafayette combined all these evils in one
act, and committed greater offense against
human and divine laws that the drunken
ness which they are trying to keep out of
their community.

MRS CLEVELAND is anxious to engage in
some line of endeavor which will raise her

THE RIGHTS OF THE RIVER,

The irrepressible conflict between the
river interests and the railroad bridge build
ers has broken out again. The complaint
of the river interests against the closing of
the channel for building the new bridge at
Wheeling, at this juncture certainly seems
to be well-founded. When the complaint was
against the obstruction of the river in another
case, during the summer at time when navi-
cation is generally suspended, it looked as if
there was room for some toleration on the
part of the river interests. But in this case
the proposition is practically to shut up the
river at season when the fall shipments of
coal are almost certain to be obstructed.
Such an important branch of commerce
should not be tied up to suit the convent
ence of railroad company. If an AMIGA
BILE arrangement cannot be made, the coal
men will have good ground for asking the
interference OF the Secretary of War.

and conventionalitles, which that lady is
perfectly able to disregard if she chooses.
Mrs. Frank Leslie sets up as objects for
manly energy what she already possesses,
but beyond that thinks she should like to
show how a man should make love; and re-
port has it that very considerable number
of gentlemen would be glad to have her In
struction on that tender subject.
The most sensible reply to the not very
profound inquiry is that of Margaret E.
Sangster, who points out that neither men
nor women can do better than "to do justly;
love mercy; and walk humbly with God"
Before that reply all the other speculstions
are reduced to about the same level as if
number of plain Americans should be in
duced to give their ideas of what they would
do if they were raised to the position Of the
Gar or the Great Mogul.
twill be noticed, however, that none of
these ladies intimate that they would like
mans privilege of donning the neither gar
me nts characteristic of masculinity. Per
haps this is due to a secret conviction on
the part of all of them, that being women of
character and energy, they already wear the

WOMEN AND MEN.

Sundry prominent women answer, in
various detail, the question what each
would do ii she were man, in number of
letters, printed elsewhere. 1t is interesting
to observe that even the ladies VINO confess
10 wish that they had belonged to the male
side of the house, do not develop any very
original or novel ideas of human effort. In
fact the majority of them set for the objects
which with slight notifications are already
within their reach.
Ella Wheeler Wilcox gives number of
excellent maxims for manly courtesy and
good chsracter, all of which, with unim-
portant changes, are equally applicable to
women. Louise Chandler Moulton envies
man his freedom from the tyranny of dress
