In requesting the directors to take steps
for the sale of the Homewood Driving Park
property the stockholders merely bow to the
inevitable. Though nearly quarter OF amillion
of dollars was spent for grounds and improve
ments, the enterprise was not success. Dis
tance from the railroad and from other means
OF access had something to do with the failurei
the law against pool-selling also was factori
but the chief reason for the Driving Parks
want of success was decline of public inter
est in trotting races. Baseball as the national
game absorbed so much interest that there was
little left for any other sport; while the per-
formances of running horses have of late years
proved of more general attraction on the turf
than the contests of :rotters. The frequent
disruption of Pittsburg's streets, too, for the
laying of gas lines, cable tracks and other use
full purposes, has lessened the old-time ardor
for rapid roadsters. 1t is singular and agree
able fact, however, that, though the Park AS
sociation's venture was distinctly losing one
on the results of racing, the prospects are that
the great rise in the price of real estate will let
the present stockholders out without loss.
Anywhere from S25O,OOO to $500. 900 is probable
figure for the one hundred acre tract which
ten years ago was bought by the association
for about $4,000.

PETTY FAuLT-FINnIHG.

The quality of some of the criticism Wis
tied upon President Harrison's administra-
tion is very thin and strained to an uncom-
monty fine degree. Here we have the New
York Sun in state of mild Mysteries be-
cause Postmaster General Wsnamaker in
vited the Pan-American delegates to his
store, and sent out notices to numbers of
people through the mail announcing the in
tended visit. But after reading all the
clever and sharp things of the Sun apropos
of this, about the bargain counter" and the
enormity of the Postmaster Generals enter
tanning the delegates at his store as IAN ad-
vertisement of his business" we are moved
to inquire wherein does the offense consist
Is it wrong for Mr.. Wanamaker to stay in
trade while Postmaster General? Why
should he not have the privilege of inviting
the Pan-Americans to see lis store, just as
they were invited to see other large business
concerns in every city they visited? Also,
why should not Mr. Wansmaker, merchant,
have as full right to use the mails as Jones,
Brown or Robinson, so long as he duly buys
his postage stamps?
The anti WaDamaker criticism we are
afraid is becoming very petty and on the
whole rather senseless. Itis rather tribute
to Harrison's administration that the oppo-
sition party finds it necessary to take up
Wanamaker's bargain counter" as a ma
tional issue.

MUTUAL RIGHTS.

A good deal of criticism is being INDUCED
in by some of the Philadelphia newspapers
because the Pennsylvania Railroad is build
ing cutoff by which its through trains
can GO through directly to New York from
a station this side of Philadelphia, leaving
the latter city, as the Philadelphia papers
put it, ION a side-track" To raise antag-
onism to the Pennsylvania Railroad because
it seeks to provide the most direct route for
its through business is not founded in JUS
tice. Neither Philadelphia nor any other
city has the right to object to any railroads
providing the most direct route for traffic to
and from other points. 1t has the right to
claim that the best facilities shall be fur
nished for its traffic, and to recognize the
right of the corporation to do the same with
its other business.
1t is with regard to the latter point that
Philadelphia is justified in objecting to the
policy of the Pennsylvania Railroad. That
corporation is fully entitled to make its
New York cutoff; but 1t is not entitled in
justice to prevent other roads from gaining
ample facilities for handling the Phila-
delphia traffic. The Belt Line project is an
example by which Philadelphia wishes to
give all competing railroads free access to
her water front; and this is understood to be
antagonized by Pennsylvania Railroad in
fuence, If Philadelphia can secure full
terminal facilities for all competing roads,
she can let the Pennsylvania Railroad i'm
prove its facilities for handling through
traffic without any prejudice to her rights.
In other words the proper basis of action
as between communities and corporations is
to recognize the full right of cities to have
the fullest and freeest opportunities for
transportation under competition, and the
right of the railroads to provide the most
direct and advantageous lines for the traffic
in which they engage.

eRnHrKG.WHoLEsALE TRADE.

The activity which has crowded the rail-
roads, stifened up the iron and steel mar
kets, and kept all our mills and furnaces in
active operation, is shown by commercial
reports to have extended to the mercantile
trade. The wholesale interests especially
are full of activity, and show q large and
steadily increasing trade. One of the most
gratifying indications of the growth and
enterprise of our city is the expansion OF the
wholesale traffic which has taken place dur
ing the past few years. A little more than
a generation ago Pittsburg was the dis
tributing point for vast extent of territory.
Ten years ago it had lost through railroad
determinations great share of the trade.
With improved transportation facilities it
has regained a great portion of the old
traffic, and is still extending its wholesale
connections. In proportion as, in the fu-
ture, it provides itself with competing rail-
road facilities it can rely on the expansion
of this element OF its prosperity.

TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
PITrsBURG. THURSDAY. NOV. 2l, 1SSa
THAT BRITISH GOLD.

The very interesting interview with a
Pittsburg broker who has been studying, in
London. the subject of English investments
in American enterprises, fully presents
some very important phases of the move
ment.
Mr.. Wells investigation shows, as THE
DISPATCH has often declared was most
likely to be the case, that the movement is
largely a speculative one; that its proper
tions are exaggerated by the large number
of unauthorized agents who are trying to
get options; and that there is material in
iation of the capital between the price at
which the property is sold here and at
which the investor buys it abroad. If the
water does not exceed the twenty per cent
stated by Mr.. We'll, it is necessary to re-
mark that the English investor gets off
easier than his American brother.
On the other hand, as an indication Of le-
gitimate demand, it is an important theory
that the talk of Continental wars leads cap
ital from all over Europe to seek safety in
American investments. This brings in fac
tor which serves to explain the magnitude
of the demand more adequately than any
other that has vet been offered.
Nevertheless we imagine that our Euro
pean friends, when they find that not sin
gle one of the American companies in which
they have put their money has monopoly
of its business, will claim that they have
been swindled.

THE POLITICAL GRAB GAME.

The usual result Of the political grab
game is foreshadowed in Montana by the
discovery that the Democrats will be able to
deadlock the State Senate, prevent it from
proceeding to the election of the United
States Senators, and thus stop all business
until the session is over, when the Governor
can appoint two Democratic Senators.
This is, of course, utterly at variance with
the spirit of Republican institutions. but it
is the inevitable result of the party spirit
which is always ready to take an unfair or
dishonest chance to twist the result of elec-
tions to partisan advantage. One party slips
in few dishonest votes; the other secures
the returning machinery and throws out the
whole precinct, securing control of the State;
the first then deadlocks the Legislature and
declares that public business'shall stop, the
choice of the people be defeated, and
the machinery of government paralyzed un-
less it is given the plunder.
In all this there is exhibited on both sides
the utmost disregard as to whether the spirit
of representative institutions is preserved or
an honest expression of the will of the peo-
pie secured. If there was desire to secure
honest and fair returns, it would be very
easy to settle the primary contest on non
partisan grounds, and to go on with the re-
suits of that settlement without delay. But
all that these politicians wish is to grab the
offices; and honest government and fair re-
turns may go hang so the party comes out
on top.
The people, however. should recognize
that popular gOvernmentis1mpossible unless
both parties unite to secure the honest result
of an election. In other words, they should
be American citizens before they are Repub-
licans or Democrats. To secure that i'm
however, it may be necessary to
clean out the present breed of politicians.

He Gets Poem and a Photograph From the
GosDOdar.
From the New York Herald.I
A New York Montenegrin received copy of
GIas CTno0orcG, which is the official newspaper
land the only one) published at Cettlnje, the
capital find in it an item that take the lib
erty of translating and sending to you, know
ing that your many readers, not only in the
United States, but in all parts of the world, will
find it interesting, and to many am sure it
will bring agreeable surprise at finding in the
hero of the Black Mountains kind, noble and
liberty loving prince, who not only admires the
American institutions and government, but
loves its people, for they like the Montene-
grins, have fought bitterly for their freedom.
The item translated from the GlGs CrnogorcG
(which means "The Voice of the MOntene-
grin'') in its issue of October 26 is as follows:
''His Highness our Gospodar'' received very
interesting letter and a beautiful photograph
from an American boy who resides in the city of
New York, U. ). A. In the letter the young
American politely requests the Prince to send
him his photograph which he desires to put in his
titled the Sunny Hour. and begs the prince to ac-
cept his photograph, the back Of which the
young American wrote as follows;
ITO the bravest prince of the bravest land, from
'arELLo J. D'APERY.n
Our Gospodar was so much touched by the SIM
pie request of the young American gentleman that
he Immediately ordered his private secretary to
forward to Mr.. D'Apery his latest, photograph,
taken recently, and as further mark OF kindness
the Prince wrote the following poem which was
sent together with the photograph, to the young
enterprisIng American.
This is the translation Of the poem, which is
written in Slavoniau, by the Prince:
What, little child from far beyond the sea,
Ask you of the autocrat?
The leader of wild mountaineers
To send his lmage-to America-the free.
Here, little dear, is the portrait then;
Put it upon the pages fair
In your young journal there, and tell
To all your own free, happy countrymen
That here among ou1 mountains dark and drear
Their wisdom, and their greatness too,
We know and hold in high repute,
And are in love Of liberty their peers.

A Fashionable Wedding at Butlers At
tended by Many PIrlsburgers.
There was notable wedding at the residence
Of Judge McCandless, in Butler yesterday
afternoon. A large and fashionable company
gathered to assist at the marriage Of his laugh
ter, Miss Katharine McCandless to Mr.. John
g. Jennings, son of R. D. jennings the widely
known petroleum producer. Shortly after 8
o'clock the ceremony was performed by Rev.
W. E. Oller, of the Presbyterian Church. The
bride wore white silk dress, her ornaments
being pearls aud diamonds, the latter the gift
of the groom. She carried large bouquet of
white roses and presented charming appear
ance against back ground Of ferns and palms.
The show OF wedding gifts was splendid, there
being beautiful pieces of antique silver and
pottery with pretty decorations AS on SINH
lar and recent occasion, Judge McCandless'
gift was Government bond for 81, co.,
The groom, though young man. has been
remarkably successful in producing oil, and
has the pleasure of possessing quite fortune.
After a tour of the Eastern cities Mr. and
Mrs. Jennings will return here, but within
few months will reside in Allegheny. A most
interesting feature of the marriage was the ap-
pearance of four handsome ladies in remarka-
ply handsome dresses.
There were goOdly number of guests from
Pittsburg, j Johnstown, New Castle and other
nearby towns. Palms, ferns and flowers

THAT BRAZILIAN BUSINESS.

ST. LOUIS Globe Democrat: Brazil will
hardly choose Dom Pedro its first President.
Nevertheless that country will have some
trouble in finding better man for the post.
PHILADELPHIA Times: The surprising
feature of the revolution in Brazil IS not that it
has come to pass-for that was ineVitable-but
that it has happened go suddenly and silently
and with so few direct premOnitions.
Boston Herald: The fugitive Emperor
Dom Pedro will have difficulty in finding any
body among the crowned heads of Europe to
cheer him up. About the only rulers who may
be said to be truly happy are those who owe
their elevation to the sutfrages Of the people
they govern.
CHICAGO Ne,0s: Most likely the days of the
Empire are over forever, but there are good
reasons for believing that the dethronement Of
Dom Pedro was the work Of bold faction
which has not vet gained the confidence Of the
people. Perhaps the provinces will ratify the
work, but they can scarcely have done so al
ready, the telegraph to the contrary notwith-
standing.
NEW YORK Tribune: The United States of
Brazil is now the natural ally OF the United
States of America. These two mighty repub-
lies rich in resources and in patriotism, should
be bound together henceforth by indissoluble
ties of commerce and common interests. They
stand one in the North and the other in the
South for government BY and for the people,
and for the pacific destiny and enlightened
progress of free and self-reliant democracy.
CNcINNATI Commercial Gazette: The EN-
pire of Brazil has fallen. and with it the author
ity of crown passes from that part Of the
Western Hemisphere south of the Canadian
border. The only semblance Of monarchical
government that survives between the SHOWS
of Canada and the ice of the South Pole is ex-
ercised by the Senate Of the United States in
its secret session. This is the last intrenchment
of political imperialism. The secret session
must 60.
CHICAGO Herald: Probably the ragnetic
attractions of Mr.. Blaine are responsible for
the revolution in Brazil BY which its people
have overthrow the monarchy and set up a
republican form Of governments His affection
ate regard for South America was limited TO
its republics, and, to share it on equal terms
with the rest, the Brazilians probably thought
they had got TO become republic themselves
1t is striking proof Of thepoWer and influence
of Blaine magnetism.

REDUCED RATES STILL GO.

The announcement of the Chicago, Bur-
lingtOn and Quincy road that it will acceptits
reduced proportion Of through rates to North
western points, whether announced in through
tariffs or not, shows that the last attempt to
screw up rates is meeting with no better
success than lis predecessors. This Western
railroad is evidently determined to carry
freight at rates which will stimulate the
movement; and the results of such rates,
as shown in the present traffic of the roads,
certainly afford a good deal of justification
for that policy. The repeated failure of the
efforts to sustain arbitrary tariffs by agree
ment should begin to convince railroad
managers that their only course is to put
their charges on the basis fixed by legiti-
mate and honest competition.
