New York state is not big enough for Gov
ernor Hill. In his inaugural address he not
only gives sound advice concerning important
state issues, but, turning his attention to ma
tional affairs, advises amendments to the fed
eral Constitution which shall provide for a
presidential term of six years, the President
ineligibility to reelection, and salaried seat
in the Senate for retiring Presidents.
The recommendation of single presi-
dental term of six years is excel
lent In itself. but it will be more appro-
priately and effectively addressed to the Con-
gress of the United States by President Hill in
1893, if he happens to be nominated and
elected to that Office. Perhaps, however, under
such circumstances, he would not be so en-
phatically in favor of presidential ineligibility
to reelection, especially as the suggestion of
Efe-ofices in the Senate for ex-Presidents is
not likely to be received with popular enthu-
siasm. 1t is doubtless the safest plan TO make
such recommendations when one is in position
to be dsinterested in his views, and when the
expression of ones opinions has not the conse-
quence of a possible shortening of ones
official term. The ex-Presidents will be CRATE
full to Governor Hill for remembering them in
his inaugural.

The result of the experiment OF keeping the
Metropolitan Museum Of Art in New York
open two evenings a week will be watched
with considerable interest by those interested
in the management of such institutions,
because it has sometimes happened in the
past that the public has failed to avail itself
of advantages thus afforded. in compliance
with generally expressed wish. The expert
ence of the Corcoran Gallery of Art in this
city may be cited a case in point. Some
years ago ii was opened free one evening each
week during the winter season. For little
while the attendance was quite large, but it
soon fell off, both as to numbers and the char
acter of visitors, until tine attendance was made
up largely of street arabs or half-grown
urchins with loose ideas as to the propriety Of
conduct, apparently drawn to the place by the
light and warmth of the galleries, and more in
tent on the DETACHMENT Of statuary and other
works of art than study or enjoyment of beauti-
full things. To meet this difficulty a nominal
admission fee of ten cents was afterward
charged, with the view of excluding, in a
measure at least, the noisy and mischievous
elements, and affording at the same time bet
ter accommodations for those likely to be
really benefited by night exhibitions. The
gallery was, however, in nowise the pecuniary
gamer from this charge. 1t bore all the extra
expense involved of lights, fuel, service, etc.,
and turned the gross door receipts over
to the Washington art club, an or
ganization then in existence, and
in need of help. This experiment seemed to
answer the purpose for while, but later on
the attendance fell off to such small proper
tions as to lead the management of the insti-
tuition to feel that the facilities thus afforded
were not greatly desired by those for whom
they were specially intended, viz: those whose
pursuits or engagements prevented them from
visiting the gallery by daylight. In conse-
quence the evening exhibitions were discon-
tinued several seasons ago, and have not since
been resumed

Two states, Michigan and New York. cele-
brated New Year day with the inauguration
Of a governor. At Albany the incomer will be
also the outgoer, the Hon. David b. Hill. who
figured through most of the year 1887 as
formidable rival of Mr.. Cleveland for the
democratic nomination for President. and who
is now, probably, pretty glad he didn't get it.
In New York city, MIR. Hewitt steps out of, and
Mr.. Grant into, the mayors chair, and an era
of remarkable activity in municipal reform
comes to an end The great metropolis will
hardly recognize herself under an order of
things, in which the mayor is merely hum
drum, everyday sort of an officer, with an eve
to the main chance in Tammany politics all
the time, and no crotchets with which to startle
press and people. As for Mr.. Hewitt, what is
left for him but to resume his sufferings from
sleeplessness, and write letters to the papers
about those performances of his successor
which do not suit him?

The patent leather trust has suspended its
price-list framed last summer, and we can all
get our dancing-pumps at a reasonable figure
till the screws are put on again. This is COM
Portable for the public, but how about the
trade? The list was made in summer, when
most of the retailers were laying in their sea-
sons stock. All the brisk buying having ended
prices are broken; and now every petty mer-
chant who has not loaded up with high-priced
goods can buy at his own rates and underseIl
his neighbors. That is the way the trust sys-
TEN works, every time. The people who pat
ronize trust and help swell its wealth, are
those whom the trust deserts and leaves in the
lurch as soon as passing chance of selfish
profit seems to present itself.
