NOW TAKE AWAY THOSE STABLES

Commissioner Robb, Of the Board of Park
Commissioners, has done what we felt conf
dent he would do when he had had time to
consider the matter carefully-he has caused the
abandonment of the scheme to ruin the upper
meadows by placing the menagerie in them
We regret that he did not also offer resolu-
ton to compel the removal of the Stokes
stables from their position near the spot where
General Grants remains are lying. and we
repeat our urgent appea! that he do this, and
do it Immediately. 1t is impossible to think
that his associates IN the Board, reckless as
they have becil of public opinion, would dare
to oppose such a motion. We do not forget
that Mr.. Robb has expressed himself as in
favor of letting the stables alone, but it ought
not to take a great deal of rejection to con-

The trouble in st. Paul over the census was
scttod yesterday by a decision OF Secretary
Noble that a recount must be made On the
facts as set forth by Census Superintendent
Porter no other decision appears to have been
nossible. It is unfortunate that the necessity
for recount has arisen anywhere, but the fact
does not tend to cast discredt upon the census
in general. Naturally there have been par
tisan outbursts against it here anu there, but
MS whole the people arc disposed to accept 1t
as fairly accuratc-as nearly accurate, prob
ably as any census can be under our system.
In some respects they do these things better
abroad-the rule being TO take the census with
in single period of twenty-four hours-but
our method has given tolerably good Satisiac-
ton in the past and will doubtless continue

The Police Commissioners have deferred for
another week the consideration of the question
of appointing matrons for the station houses
When increased patronage has no political
value those eminent reformerS are devoted to
the interests of retrenchment and frugality to
degree that is most affecting. Let practical
reformers take advantage of the weeks delay
and exert themselves in every possible way to
have a measure which is urgently required by
considerations of public decency and morality
carried out in accordance with the design OF
the Legislature.

The President has promptly signed the Orig
inal-package bill, thus completing necessary
niece of legislation which was forced upon
Congress by the recent decision OF the Supreme
Court. The new law will put stop to busi-
ness which has flonrshed in certain regions,
contrary to the wishes and expressed inten-
tons of the people thereof. The right of the
people of State to regulate the sale of liquor
within its borders, whether offered for sale in
original packages or not seems perfectly OBJ
yious, and the action of the lawmaking powers
merely confirms right which had uniformly
been assumed and exercised up TO the time
that the Supreme Court declared it to be non
existent. 1t is a right that accordS with COM
mon sense as well as established usage.

Having himself discounted it in advance,
Mayor Grant yesterday made public the report
of the Commissioners of Accounts on the Park
Department. 1t is not a formidable document.
How much revision it was treated to after
being first handed over to the Mayor there is
no means of knowing: but certainly in fS
present shape it contains no material that the
Park Commissioners can seriously object to.
Most Of the minor irregularities that need cor
rection were mentioned in the Mayors let
ter, published yesterday. They show the need
of looking after the little things as well as the
great ones in the Park Department, though in
reality they are triies-as, for instance, whether
labo-er was paid twice for three days labor

Secretary WINDOWS reply 10 tie SenatcS IN
ouiry concerning the shipment of Asiatlc imports
in sealed cars over the Canadian Pacific Hallway
into this country is satisfactory, ana indicates
a step in the right direction. This country mas
had all the proof it needs of the folly OF Treasury
Department regulations which serve to build up
the Canadian Pacific at the expense OF our own
lines Not only the regulation which permits
sucL shipments as the Senate inquired about, Dut
all other similar ones, should be stopped Inc
Canadian Pacific was never justified by any COM
mcrcial demand in Canada. IL lives by lis
American business, and by reason of the fact
that il is outside the operation or onr laws.
Every rule which restrains and cocrces our own
carriers is Just so much more liberty 10 1t. ana ii
is qnic5 10 avail itself of every opportunity which
such situations present. We shouldn't 50 much
object TO this if il were private corporation
engaged in IA business which made lis existence
necessary But it is a political machine. IL Is
the Canadian Government prsonliied, and lt'
purposes are both politically and commercially
hostile TO the United States. Instead OF being
encouraged in its lawlcss competition with our
roads il should be stcrnly and severely held In

There is certainly screw loose in Boston.
A correspondent of The Journal writes to that
paper Crossing the Common on Iuesday' my
eye was attracted by new signboard on one
of the trees in the old battle-ground ana on
the board, in large letters, was this inscription

are buried" II is not surprising that the
writer of the letter was shocked and hastened
to expose n foul plot to undermine the fair fame
Of his native Cor adopted town Buried win
two RS. And in Boston, Surely an enemy hath
done this. The case plainly calls for pcremptory
and drastic action. 1t is rendered all the worse
by the fact that Boston only short time ago
provided itself with elaborate commission
in order TO prevent the infiction upon its pnbilc
parks and places of any statuary that was no'
fully up to the mark artistically. 1t looks as
though another commission was needed TO fuhi
the function Of making sure that all Inscriptions
on public objects are spelled according 10 the
accepted photographed standard.

One OF the banes of modern rural and suburban
civilization is the locomotive whistle. Tho whistle
itself and the engineer or fireman who controls 1t
are alike destitute Of bowels Of compassion. The
whistle respects neither age nor color nor pre-
vious condition of manhood or womaulood. It's
fcndish shrek pcnctrates with equal power the
ears OF the Just and Of the unjust. II has 10
mercy upon the suffering or tic sleepy; in fact
the human hand that controls it is apt TO put it
through lis most appalling PAGES in the dead vast
and middle of the night. when its far-echoing
noise is won't to arouse from sweet slumber many
whose wooings Of the drowSy god are oft lire
Quilted. Everybody has heard the locomotive
whistle ONLY 81 be veXed in spirit. il not half

be Interested in the attcmN which is being made
in the Connecticut city Of Waterbury 10 curb its
impctuosiy within somewhat reasonable limits.
dispatch from thnt place tells of fifty suits
which have been brought against railroad com
pany for violating the law which forbids
whistling within the city limits Each suit is
for 81 90 damages; total thus far. $1,000. The
city officials appear 10 mean business and promise
that unless the nuisance Is abated, they will Sc
cure evidence and begin action in every case Of
unlawful whisling This effort to teach the
locomotive whistle It's rightful place in the
economy of nature will command widespread ap-
probation.
Dr. Shrady's suggestion that the same phys-
clans who witnessed the execution of kemmer
should be present officially at the next execution
