Superintendent Miles Report on the Rel
alive Merits Of Two Telephone Systems.

Superintendent Miles Of the telegraph and
telephone service has been busy for some time
past examining the relative merits Of the Game
well and the municipal systems of telephone
patrol service. His investigations were made
with view of deter mining the best system for
use in the new police precincts. Today
he submitted to the District Commits
sioners his report on the subject
He says that the municipal system, in order to
present new features in the service rendered,
undertook TO do many things unnecessary to
the service and thereby complicated their sys-
TEN to an extent that will endanger its success
ful operation in the hands of unskilled men
who have to use it. After noticing in detail
the difference in the two systems, he says:
Divest the municipal system of its complica-
ton OF switches aud bring it down to do only
that which Ia necessary and you have the Game
well system, but incumbered with polarized
magnets. On the other hand, he says suppose
IL is necessary to record the calls automatically
by time sttmp, to make citizens
and that vsyisu multiple calls should be used,
which are not new in use by the District, the
system now in use could be made capable OF
rendering that service by the introduction of a
patrol service just two practical calls to be
made. One Is the report call and the other
that the patrol wagon is wanted. Anything
beyond this, he says, serves to complicate
rather than improve the system. The citi-
zens' key. he said, was in use nearly twenty
years ago and abandoned because it was use
less.
IN conclusion he SAYS that even were the two
systems exactly equal in merit and reliability,
still. IN the light Of the fact that two-thirds
Of the precincts are already covered by the one
system, he would not think it good policy to
Change.
The Commissioners will carefully consider
the above report III board session and decide
upon the system to introduce into the new

1t is rather interesting, il not surprising,
to find in the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
m editorial over the initials of Mr.. Murat
Halstead, in reply to some criticisms which
contrasted his independence as a journalist
few years ago with the somewhat circum-
scribed course of his paper as party organ
at present. The reply to this contrast,
offered by Mr.. Halstead, is as follows:
The period of free-lance journalism, to which
complimentary reference is made, was, in my
Judgment educational 1t resulted in the con-
viction that the highest public usefulness was
attsinable on the inside rather than the outside
Of political organizations. That it was better
and stronger to be an inner guiding force than
70 offer objections, suggestions and criticisms,
or to dole out incoascqCent appreciation from
the exterior.
This view might be open to discussion as
bearing upon the respective merits of inde-
pendence and party journalism, if the main
purpose of a newspaper was to exercise
political influence and to secure political
power to its editor; but it has no cogeney at
all # the important function os newspaper
is to give its readers unbiased, full and re-
liable views of what is going on in politics.
Mr.. Halstead entirely forgets the importance
in newspaper work Of giving the public

A SOUTHERN STORM.

The row which has been raised in Atlanta
during the past few days appears to have
been kicked up especially for the sake of
showing the survival of the old pro-slavery
barbarism. Under the rules Of the civil
service, and as the result of an examination,
q colored man got an appointment in the
Atlanta postofice. He was put in place
where ne would have to hand papers and
work in the same room with female clerk,
and the Southern blood boiled over at once.
The young woman resigned, the mob has
burned the postmaster in efigy, and Mr..
Grady's organ of the New South, the Atlanta
Constitution, is indulgirg in enlightened
paragraphs about 'the newest attempt Of
the Republican party to humiliate the peo-
pie of the South with q fresh dose of
Niger"
This almost justifes the feeling that par
tisan malignity, race hatred and color-line
stupidity are unconquerable. But there is
reason to hope that the intelligent Southern
people will In time have leisure and grace
to be ashamed of themselves. They have
at times, during the past, expressed some
willingness to keep abreast with the ideas of
civilization, and after they get over this
furry of giving way to the most stupid Of
mob passions they may take time to reflect
that there should be some relation between
promise and performance.
