THE TRUTH ABOUT THE CENSUS BILL.

THE TRUTH dBOUI IHE CE-NoCo DILL"
II is a particularly well-known fact that Gov
ernor Hill vetoed the Census bill of 1885 for
pmelv partisan reason. He vetoed it in the
interest of his own ambition and that of the
Democratic party. In other words he vetoed
it because he was afraid that it gave General
Carr. the Republican Secretary Of State, too
much patronage for the good of his political
opponents. The bill provided that the Score
tary of State should appoint the census
enumerators. In doing that it simply followed
precedent. But the Governor insisted that the
County Clerks should appoint them, having in
view the places which would thus be made for
his heelers in New-York, Kings and other
Democratic strongholds. The veto was the
result of the refusal of the Republican Legs
lature to yield to the Governors demand on
this point. And so it came to pass that Gov
ernor Hill ignored the popular will and brought
to naught a mandate of the Constitution be-
cause of his devotion to the spoilS system.
All this is within the knowledge Of every
person Of intelligence who kept himself in
formed in regard to what was going on in Al
bany in 1885. Nevertheless, 1.-The Brooklyn
Eagle" in an article devoted to a Jealous but
indiscreet attempt to vindicate the Governors
veto, endeavors to displove it. 1t says:
The Republicans maintain that Governor Hill first
vetoed Census bill, because he wanted the county
clerks to have the appointment Of the cnumerators and
not the Secretary Of state, who was then Republican
named Joseph b. Carr. But Governor Hill vetoed the
same bill a while afterward when the Secretary Of
State was a Democrat named Frederick Cook who
stl holds the office. After this fact. any Republican
paper which attributes Governor HIPS veto 10 the
politics OF the Secretary Of State, instead Of TO the
reasons which the Governor advances, that an emu
meratlon. and not census, should be taken, imports
such OF conscious Misrepresentation into the
argument as dlsentitle it to recognition among self
respecting controversationalists
There might be relevancy in this, in case
il was true. But it is not true. Governor Hill
did not veto a Census bill while Mr.. Cook or
any other Democrat was Secretary Of State.
The only bill upon which he exercised his
malevolence was the bill Of 1885. He vetoed
it on April 20 of that year. General Joseph B.
Carr being then Secretary of State. No sooner
had the Legislature adjourned on May . than
the Governor issued proclamation converting
hat body in extraordinary session to consider

ONE UORD MORE.

The people Of this city ought to be fully
aware by this time of the gravity of the ques-
ton whose decision in all probability hinges
upon their action or inaction at tO-day's meet
ing of the commissioners charged with the duty
of erecting the new municipal building. Put
in its simplest terms it is the question of pre-
serving or running the City Hall Park, so far
as it's uses as a park are concerned. While
the COMM ssioners are inclined to proceed with
the plans for a building which they determined
upon some time ago, they have pursued the
Trustworthy course of seeking the wishes OF
the people on the subject. If the people dis
play the same apathy and indifference as were
apparent at the first hearing fortnight ago.
the commissioners will feel justified in assum-
ing that they have public sentiment behind
them, and will doubtless 60 ahead at once with
a project that involves the cOvering-up of the
whole eastern side Of the park with building
as big as the granite Postoffice which itself
wiped out slice Of this limited open area that
could i'll be spared.
Is there to be repetition Of that folly now?
Will not the people put veto upon such n
scheme Of spOliation ?. Is it not wise to pre-
serve this tiny park-indeed to enlarge it by
sweeping away the dilapdated structures that
cumber its northeast comer-especially at a
time when the city is laying out millions in
the requirement of new park territory? All
who hold to these views should fake some
meani--either by personal attendance or
through cOunse-to make them known at the
Mayors Office this afternoon. The meeting
there is to take place at 2 o'clock. This is
probably the last chance to enter an effective
protest. The decision is in the peoples hands.
VIII they speak or let the case 90 by default ?

LOOKING HAPPY IN TWO COUNTRIES
A dispatch from Rome concerning the recent
assault on Signor Crisp Prime Minister of Italy,
includes the curious statement that Caporah, the
culprit, threw the stone because Slgnor Crspi
looked happy and contented' This opens an
interesting question in our National politics.
For five years now our fellow-citzens the Mug
wumps have been throwing stones at Mr.. Blaine :;
has it been because he has looked happy and con-
tented ?
As the reader well knows James G. Blaine has
been the Mugwumps' nightmare II Mr.. Blaine has
travelled from Washington TO New-iork in n
parlor-car they have accused him of trying TO in
duence the parlor-car vote II he has come in a
daytcoach, they have wildly shouted that he was
trucking TO the day-coach vote. IL he has
walked, they have asked the country to look at
James G. Blaine trying to corrupt the tramp
vote. If Mr. Blaine has been seen on the piazza
of his hotel wearing Prince Albert coat they have
cried that he was boated aristecrat unworthy
the confidence of the common people If he has
been seen wearing cutaway coat, they have de-
clared that it was only a scheme of his to ruin
our shipping interests II he has been detected
with sack coat, " see,' they have shouted, how
South American They have thrown stones at
james G.. Blaine till the supply of natural stones
has been exhausted and they have fallen back on
pieces of concrete. For five years Mr.. Blaine has,
like SignOr Cri,pi, been looking happy and con-
tented, and during ali this time the Mugwumps
have been throwing stones at him; is it not
reasonable TO suspect that the latter fact has
been caused by the former?
There is still another point contained in the dis
patch concerning the assault on the Italian Prime
Minister which, we think, goes TO show that we
have parallel case in this country. After stat
ing that the reason Caporal threw the stone was
that Signor Crispi looked happy and contented,
the dispatch adds: while Caporal had had
nothing to eat for two days" 1t has been much
longer space of time than two days since the
Mugwamps have had anything TO eat They

simultaneously with the submission at Au-
burn of arguments on the constitutionality OF
the law providing for execution by electricity,
an extravaganza statement on the subject was
made in London yesterday by the chief cleo
trician of the Postoffice Department. Mr..
Preece stated without qualification that our law
would have to be repealed, as it was impossible
to get current sufficiently powerful to Kill a
man with certainty. But he went so far as
10 act down as nonsense the statements that
persons had been killed by shocks from electric
wires. This was indiscreet, TO say the least.

Washington dispatch. published yesterday.

A Washington dispatch. published yesterday,
said that "the lack Of proper material is causing
considerable delay on the Texas and that
number Of men who were at work
upon her have been suspended. That work
has been suspended upon the battle-sh1p
Texas should cause surprise, for Secretary
Tracy stated three weeks ago that the work would
have to be suspended for a time because OF
serious plumbers having been discovered in the
English plans of the vessel showing that she
could not carry her own weight if constructed
from them. The Secretary also stated that the
trouble arose through difference of opinion
between Chief Naval Constructor Wilson ana
Constructor Bowes. The latter calculated that
she would have a margin of eighty-elght tons IN
displacement over and above her estimated weight
Constructor Wilson made calculation showing
that she had been underestimated 200 TONS the
effect of which would be to sink her eleven
inches more than her displacement should call
for. The Secretary appointed board to go over
the figures and decide which is correct, and the
resumption of work will probably depend upon
their report.

BY the will of the late Professor Loomis the

astronomical science. The estate amounts to
nearly $500, OOO and the legacy is most
generous one. The income of the LOOMS Fund
is not TO be used in the erection of buildings
or the purchase of apparatus-in fact, Yale is
well equipped in these respects-but in paying
the salaries Of Observers publishing the results
of their work, etc. Professor Looms'S own
experience doubtless taught him that money
expended in this way will be productive of the
best results.
