ROCK GREEK PARK.

The House District Committee, having
heard a number of prominent citizens
yesterday on the subject of the establish
ment of the National Park along the
beautiful valley of Rock Greek. decided
to report fayorably to the House.
Following this action win be the Sc
curing of like report from the Senate
committee, which, in view of all the
facts, should eventnate similarly.
Hand in hand with the establishment
of this Park is the establishment of the
National Zoo, which, in the nature of
things, should be a part Of the Park.
The Zoo is almost a foregone conclu-
sion and the Park should also be.
We have nothing of this sort at the
National Capital, the place of all others
which should be so endowed, The ques-
tion Of expense always comes first and
in this instance 1t is really the least i'm
portant, for the Rock Creek Valley Is
almost now Park, and such Park as
no other city in the land can present.
Nature has done all the hard work at no
expense, and now if Art is permitted to
lend her finishing hand the National
Capital will have Park which will be
for all time magnificent monument to
the legislation and the Legislators in
strumental in its foundation and devel-
opment.
1t is a necessity as it will be luxury,
and the thousands who visit it and en-
joy its beauties will ever hold in kindly
remembrance its founders,
Governments of other countries are
never backward in making such pro-
visions for the people, and the capital
city of every civilized country on the
globe has at least one great Park which
is a pride to the Nation. We are behind
all others in this respect, and it is not
creditable to the American progress of
which we boast on all occasions, that it
is SO.
Congress should examine thoroughly
the merits of this case, and In the spirit
which has made us the foremost country
Of the world add another long step to the
phenomenal progress we have made In a
national existence shorter than that of
any Of our recognized competitors.

HAULING IT AROUND.

1t is something of an in novati0n on
our American ideas that the seat of
government can be removed from
Washington without the authority of
congress, but President HARRISON
doesn't stand back on a little techni-
cality like that when his personal con-
venience is at stake. 1t suits his con-
venience to be at Deer Park during the
summer, SO he has provided for tenn
porary removal of the seat of govern
ment to the top of the Alleghenies. In
times past it has been the custom of
presidents to take summer vacation,
but it was always done upon the theory
that the government was left behind
when they went away from Washing
ton. 1t is not that way with HARRISON,
however. He has got himself SO mixed
up with the government that he can't
tell 'tother from which, but is inclined
to the opinion that he is the govern
ment, and that the departments at
Washington are merely side issues of
himself This all comes from getting
the swellhead, and if this thing is kept
up the national capital will have to be
put on wheels for the accommodation of
this peripatetic administration.

WE GIVE THE NEWS.

We observe that our state exchanges
pretty unanimously indorse the GLOBES
editorial views concerning prize fight
ing, yet some few of them take us to
task for having devoted so much space
to an account of the late mill between
SULLIVAN and KILRAIN. Our critics
fail to remember that the GLOBE is a
newspaper, and that our mission on
earth is to get the news from every
source and to serve it up IN the most at
tractive style. That we are fulfilling
that mission is clearly evident from the
class Of criticisms we have provoked.
Only the other day correspondent, in
lodging similar complaint that we had
given too much space to the prize fight,
mentioned the fact that the report of
the battle of Waterloo covered only a
half column OF the London Times.
That's hardly a fair comparison, for it
only goes to show that the Lon
don Times of that date wasn't
much OF a newspaper. The Lon
don Times of this date had three
columns of cablegram on the Rich
burg battle. That's the difference be-
tween old-time and modern journalism.
NoAH's deluge was not mentioned in
the papers of the time at all, yet the
Couemaugh flood got pages and pages
of both the American and European
press. All of which goes to show that
this is progressive age, and that the
GLOBE rides high on the tide of prog

Sunstroke falls upon the unsuSpecting
victim almost without warning, and yet
there are but few cases that might not
have been avoided by proper OBJ
Servance of diet and a due at
tention to the slight premonitory
symptoms which usually precede the
attack. If at any time during an ex-
cessively hot spell you experience dizzi-
ness or momentary blindness you had
better look out for what follows. An
eminent authority says that you should
heed these symptoms in hot weather as
you would the yellow flag of smallpox.
they are the signals of an approaching
sunstroke, and the first thing you should
do is to get into the coolest place you
can find and take rest for three or
four hours. Then moderate exercise
will remove the danger. The next dan
ger arises from diarrhetic diseases.
The safest precaution in regard to
these is by proper attention to diet and
dress. You want to avoid the carbons
of winter food and guard against too
free indulgence in the use of ice water.
You should remember that whatever
adds to the heat of the body hastens the
danger of disease. Therefore you want
to wear as few clothes as possible, and
they of the highest material that the
prOprietieS will admit of.

THOSE TELEGRAPH BILLS.

The Western Union Telegraph COM
pany is one of the most independent
monopolies of the country. The peo-
pie know little about its mode of opera
ton, and it would be surprising if it
could be brought to time by WANA-
MAKER. He is said to have now dis
covered that he was hasty and under
miSapprehension when he cut the rate
for the government from one cent to one
mill. He had supposed that private
firms and corporations were served at
the one-mill rate, but he learns since that
they give returns i'll other ways than
those that involve cash. While WANA-
MAKER IS looking into the matter he
might find out what sort of recon-
pense corporations or individuals are
able to give that will cover nine-tenths
of their telegraph bills. The govern
ment grants special favors to the tele-
graph people, and should have the best
rates. The public could be easily in
duced to believe that there is favorit-
ism and unfair dealing in the telegraph
business, and that some are made to pay
more than others.

bricks in this country artistic enough
to satisfy Republican simplicity, or they
can be had cheaper abroad by cutting
off the tariff. Perhaps 1t encourages
American manufacturers, too, i'll some
occult way, but some are disposed to
doubt that officials or the government
should have privileges of this sort not
accorded to private individuals.

NIGHT EXECUTIONS.

1t is probably all right to prevent the
morbidly curious from collecting i'll
crowds to witness a public execution,
and to have such events conducted with
a show of order and decency; and yet
we fail to see how the humane features
OF a gallows scene are improved by wax
ing a man out of his sleep to be choked
to death. Our new state law, which
requires the criminal upon whom
the death sentence has been passed
to be hung before daylight, to our mind
is a species of refined cruelty. The
gallows is a dreary enough object in
daylight, without giving it an additional
tinge of horror by enveloping it in the
cloak of night at the hour when it Is re-
quired to perform its work of death. 1t
may be but a sentiment which causes
the mind to rebel at the thought of a
night execution, yet it is sentiment
that has been respected by all people
who have made pretensions to higher
civilization. Even the barbarism of
RoBEsPIERRE stayed the blade OF the
guillotine until the light Of day had
flushed the sky. Why. then, should we
go back to the practice of the dark ages
just for the sake of giving little more
nriyaey to an execution?

THE CAMERON CLAN.

Don CAMERON seems disposed to dis
credit the theory at once adopted by the
public that the death of the father will
conclude the public appearance of the
CAMERoNs. He doesn't take that view.
He is very wealthy. and has had all the
honors he can ever attain, but he posi-
bly, has some constituencies over the
supposition that his position is chiefly
attributable to his being the son of his
father, and he may have detected in
good WANAMAKER an undue eager
ness to succeed him. For the million
aire who has need of little other exer-
ton than to protect the interests of
capital, the United States senate is
very comfortable place. CAMERON pro-
poses to remain there, although QUAY
and the administration are understood
to he actively for WANAMAKER. He
has the sagacity of his father to know
how to keep out of needless and I'M
profitable fights, and to win when he
does go in. He has kept out of the
prohibition and factional wrangles, and
can make things extremely interesting
for the combination against him.
