THE ITALIAN ELECTIONS,
Significance Of their Postponement to
European Politics.

LONDON. July 23.-The dispatch from Rome
printed here yesterday morning announcing
that the italian cabinet had resolved to post
pone the legislative elections attracted little
attention, as its full significance seems not to
have been understood. In Berlin and Vienna,
however, it is accepted as circumstance of the
highest importance, inasmuch it is notice to
both Germany and Austria that the triple al
nance. upon which so many fond hopes have
been built, Is, at least. so far as Italy is con-
cerned. only rope of sand. 1t has been well
understood in Berlin and in Vienna that a very
powerful minority in Italy fought the alliance
tooth and nail, and it was also well known that
this opposition to Premier Crispi's policy had
recently become very formidable and aggressive,
but neither Germany nor Austria were pre-
pared for the information that it had swollen
to such proportions that the italian premier
did not dare to submit his policy to the people
for their approval. But this is exactly what
the news from Rome means, and there is no
doubt that Crispi's enemies have obtained the
upper hand. The Berlin papers yesterday COM
mented on the news as boding i'll to the alliance,
but in Vienna 1t seems to be accepted as its
death warrant. No hope is expressed that
Crispi will he able to recover the ground lost,
no matter how long he may delay the elections,
and with Crispi.
MUST FALL THE TRIPLE ALLIANCE.
Ever since it was given out in Rome that the
uSaeg "Au tNO SluptIOIS lHpOStu
Italy the obligation to send 100000 soldiers
to the aid of Austria in case OF war the people
began to drift away from Crispi, until now il is
very certain he finds himself and his party
hopelessly in the minority. The leader of the
opposition, Senator Jacini, raised the cry which
seems to have rallied the whole kingdom to his
support. What" said he in his place in the
Italian chamber, ''are we to see our sons and
our brothers dragged to Poland, there to bleed
and die for Austria?'
All Italy took up the cry and echoed Clear
full! Horribler' and for over two months moth
ing else has been talked about in the clubs and
cafes of Rome and Naples but the horrible fate
to which the premier had doomed Italy's sons
When, beside, it is remembered that Austria and
the Austrians have been the Italians pet abomi-
nation for centuries, something of the intensity
of the feeling which is now stirring Italy to its
center can be understood.
The Vienna Free PreSse sums Up the situa-
ton with the declaration that Austria and Ger
many must now make new plans for their own
security with Italy left out of the calculation.

NO MORE COBBLESTONES.
A Protest from South Washington
The Commissioners Action.

The statement that the Metropolitan railroad
company would be allowed to pave between
their tracks on Al street with cobble stones is
denied by the Commissioners, who say that
they have not yet settled the question.
1t will be remembered that The STAR some
days ago referred to Capt. Symons' recon-
mendation that no exception whatever be made
in the order of the Commissioners with regard
to paving with granite blocks.
This morning the Commissioners received
the following letter from Messrs. Dwyer and
Parker, with the appended petition, signed by
upwards OF seventy-hve property owners on
AZ street:
UNFAIR TREATMENT ALLEGED.
1t appears from the morning Press that you
have, to the great detriment of the citizens of
South Washington, revoked the order for paw
ing between tracks on AZ street southwest with
granite blocks, allowing instead the old-time
cobble stones, and at the same time favoring
another section, by requiring the granite
blocks. Ii people of East Capitol street are
entitled to granite blocks, people of south
Washington are as good, and If honestly treated
will get the same expense to railroad company.
We inclose the following petition protesting
against the unfair treatment for the reasons
that AZ street is improved from AZ to O,
having 431 houses and 10 vacant lots. while East
Capitol street, LIST to 9th, according to Hopkins
atlas, has 172 houses, 10 vacant lots
again property-holders on Az street have
paid three times for the improvement of said
street and think it strange that the Commits
sioners will favor one section and impose on
South Washington the disgraceful cobblestone.
Why not grant the petition and carry out Capt
Symons excellent recommendation, which, by
the way, resulted in the issuance of the best
order the Commissioners ever made.
We see no reason for exceptions. All tax
payers are supposed to be equal and entitled to
the same rights, and drive over the street
would show the Commissioners that the people
Of South Washington are justified in their
demands

IDAHO'S CONVENTION.
Fillibustering Over Two Reports on
the Missouri Question.

BOISE CRY, IDAHO, July 23.-The convention
yesterday agreed to limit the state indebted
ness to IA per centum of assessed value of
property. Towns and cities are not permitted
to incur Indebtedness above revenue, burmay
co-operatewith capital in making improvements.
Some days ago the committee on elections and
suffrages made a majority and minority report;
the former by the republicans and the latter by
the democrats. The majority would prevent
the vote of the Mormons, while is would also
allow the legislature to make other limits and
terms for preventing the vote of persons hold
ing higher allegiance to organizations they
deem above that of the state and United States
government. The minority report is so framed
as to cut off legislation, and, in the eyes of the
anti-Mormoasleaves loOphole through which
the Mornnons, may crawl and secure the control
of the political power. A proposition to take
these reports up IL committee of the whole
caused some flibustering, which blocked all
business for some time. The matter was finally
settled by an agreement to consider these re-
ports Thursday. Hundreds of Mormons with
drew last fall to evade the test oath and VOTE
and this makes the anti-Mormons anxious to
give the legislature the power to make new
limits and restrictions that the Mormon church
now colonizing portion of Idaho, may not
participate in politics. This question has
caused the chief trouble during the convention.
