The Democratic members OF the
State Senate will either have to vote
in favor of holding Constitutional
Convention without any further cleo
ton, or place themselves and their
party on record as being opposed to
q change In the organic law of this
State. For years that party has in
each campaign promised the people
that q convention should be held for
the purpose of changing that anti
quated instrument, but when the time
came for action II has always been
''wait little longer" Finally the
last Legislature, unable to Withstand
the pressure of public opinion, gra
ciously permitted the people to hold
an election, but fixed 1t at time when
II was pretty certain that q full vote
conld not be polled. They now take
the ground that another election should
be held, which would defer the time Of
holding the convention for at least two
years, while the Republicans are in
favor of holding II now. The majority
OF the Democratic party are opposed tc
anything that savors of reform, but
have deceived the people by promises
which were made to be broken, Now,
however, they will have to meet this
question squarely. and either vote
through their representatives In the
Legislature In favor of convention
Or else by casting their votes sgaiust /

In connection with tine repayng of
Brooklyn streets, which has become a
subject Of pressing concern through the
recent outlying of the Mayor, an inter
esting point has been made concerning
the effect Of asphalt pavements on trees.
Experience shows that in streets where
such pavements have teen laid the trees
do not flourish, if indeed they do not
speedily wither, The reason is not far to
seek. II lie apparent on moments
thought that It 10 almost impossible for
water to penetrate to the roots of the
trees beneath such an impervious cover
ing, and hence their decline is inevitable.
No plans are now view for increasing
the asphalt payements in Brooklyn, but
this matter is worth keeping In mind
against the possibility that the question
may be raised at some time in the fu ure
Asphalt pevements have certain un
doubted advantages, along with equally
undoubtei disadvantages. The drawback
mentioned here lie doubtless seldom takeI
into account.

The terrible cyclone which visited
Reading and other points in Pennsyl-
vania yesterday was the worst ever ex
perienced in that State. We in the
East have been accustomed to read of
these terrible visitations in the far
West, but within few years we have
commenced to experience them our
selves. Three or four years ago the
steamer Reybold IVES almost torn to
pieces by cyclone, then another
passed over the southwestern part OF
this State, tearing down barns, up.
roofing trees and leaving desolation in
in its track. Then came the terror Of
last August, which is still fresh in the
minds Of the people. Now Pennsyl
vania has had a visitation, which
wrought havoc along its entire track
and swept eighty human beings into
eternity. While We can be thankful
that this city escaped yesterdays yisi
tation, we also extend our sincere
sympathies to the people of Reading,
