Tho Only Democratic Congress District
in philadelphia.

Since the death of Mr.. RANDALL several
free trade newspapers have asserted that
the Representative in Congress from the
Third district OF Pennsylvania held his seat
for years simply by Republican consent. That
is to say, because RANDALL believed In the
protection OF American industry he was al
lowed by the Republican leaders to go back to
Congress year after year ne Democrat,
when the district could have been carried by
the Republicans II they had chosen to oppose
RANDALL. The malignant Erenin0 Post
went 30 far the other day as to accuse the
dead statesman OF proflting by corrupt
bargain by which he betrayed his party In
order to retain his seat in Congress.
This falsehood has apparently no other
basis than the circumstance that at the two
last elections OF congressman the Republic
cans in RANDABI's district ran no candidate
against him. In 1883 Mr.. RANDALL received
17,e42 votes. against 112 for all other candi-
dates. In 1886 no Republican wns nominated.
But In tho six preceding elections the Re-
publicans contested Mr.. RANDALL's seat
and he was chosen by pluralities ranging
from a little less than 5000 to a little more
than 1000 votes.
How far there is truth in the story that
tho Third district Of Pennsylvania Is not
Democratic district may be judged from the
vote OF that district for President In 1888.
Mr.. CLEVELAND received 16,795 votes TO
10o28 for Gen. HARRISON. CLEvELANDs
plurality was 0.767. II there was any bar-
gain between Mr.. RANDALL and the Republi-
cans, Mr.. CLEVELAND profltsd by 1t.
The two principal Democratic candidates
for the vacant seat so long occupied by the
great Democratic leader are WILLIAM Mo
ALEER and JAMES NJ. BECK. AS there seems
to be foolish intention on the part OF some
body TO inject the free trade question into
the canvass for the benefit Of the latter gen.
tleman, it is quite possible that the party's
hold upon the single Democratic district in
Philadelphia may be weakened or lost.

Tho Morthles Of April 23.

This ia tho day celebrated in history as
the birthday Of WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE,

and CHAuNcEY MITCHELL DEPEw; and like
Wiso as the anniversary Of tho death Of VIII
LIAM SHAKEsPEARE, MIGUEL DE CERvANTEs
BAAvEDRA. and BRIAN BoRU.
There is no positive proof that SHAKE
sPEARE was born on April %. That date is
assumed. first, on tho strength of a tradi-
ton that the day Of his death was the ami
versary OF his birth: and, secondly, because

ary to baptize immortal geniuses and other
babies when just three days old.

nected with the April day that is now re-
volving. DEPEw Is unQuestionably the most
fortunate He Is alive and the rest are dead.
Tho best that they had in life is ut his dis
posal, and in addition he Is getting great
deal OF fun that they missed. There are Few
men on earth to-day who would not rather
be CHAUNCEY NJ. DEPEw than WILLIAM
6HAKEsrEARE or BRIAN BoRU.
We congratulate the Hon. CHAuNoBY M.
DEPEw on the event that occurred In Peeks-
kill nfty-slS years ago to-day: an event to
which he himself owes 50 much that is en-
joyable, and to which this town is indebted
for the possession Of q citizen who unites In
ono remarkable individuality something of
the Imagination and insight OF SHAKE
sPEARE, something OF the broad and sturdy
democracy OF DOUGLAS, something OF the
personal dignity and gentlemanly tact OF
BUCHANAN. something OF the humor and
Wit and human kindlness OF CERvANTES,
and something Of the bold initiative and ag-
gressive energy OF BRIAN BoRoIMHE the
most celebrated OF tho MAcKENNEDYs.

Not Advisable.

The Official lot OF a Commissioner OF Street
Cleaning In this city is never very happy or
enviable, for, however energetic and viRilant
he may be. he cannot hope to satisfy the
often unreasonable demands OF those who
are not acquainted with the obstac ces he has
to overcome. These obstacles arise mainly
from the laxity OF tho ordinances, the
character and condition OF the pavements,
and the changes almost continuously made
In them by builders. by corporations, and by
various city departments. The recent Com
mlssioncrs have been subjected to much crit
scism; yet the streets Of this city have never
been better cleaned.
Changes Of plan and method have been pro-
posed. in the interest of efficiency, by those
In charge Of this department; and one Of
these proposals, which is now II subject OF
discussion. seems to us open to serious obiec-
tions. 1t is that the workers in this de-
partment shall wear as uniform a single
garment OF the same color and quality
as is used In the Neapolltan prisons. and on
tho back OF each man number is TO be worn
conspicuously. BY this number and not by
his name 1t Is proposed that he shall be
known In tho department. The result
expected from this cranky innoVatlonIis that
1t will enable persons who may be disposed
to criticisO the sweepers and cartmcn to
identity them for that purpose. 1t will
also secure uniformity Of apparel. and be the
means Of preventing too many applicants

ment. When once they underBtand that
such garb must be worn, and q numerical
designation borne on the back Of It. they
will be likely to withdraw.
That the number Of applicants would be
diminished by this means there is little
doubt; but would that single fact justify the
introduction Of such system2 Uniforms
or liveries for public functionaries such as
are worn by postmcn. policemen, railroad
conductors, porters, or firemen, are necos-
sary, because these persons have to do di-
rectly with the public, and It Is desirable
that no mistake should exist as to their
identity. The custody Of letters, tho main
tenanoe OF order, tho collection OF fares on
cars, tho charge and responsibility for
baggage, aud the control oil premises which
are burning, or have been burned: all these
tasks require that those delegated to per-
form them should be identified, az q matter
OF public protection and convenience. But
what confidential functions Of responsibility
are intrusted to the street sweeperS The
Job is not one in which person is likely to
engage who ia not paid by the city for 1t, and
II he should assume 1t without authority no
harm would ensue; the cause OF cleanli-
ness would be promoted.
Besides the uniform worn by subordinate
public funotionaries is not badge Of dis
grace; It is an emblem Of authority. The
uniform proposed to be given the street
cleaners Is the mark OF convicts; and the
roll call In an important public department,
II conducted by numbers instead OF by
names. would not be an edifyinR spectacle.
II each sweeper is to have particular ter
ritory allotted to him for his labors, no rea-
son whatever exists why the designation OF
numbers should supersede that of names.
Irate and censorious persons who desire to
file complaints can still do so Just rs effec-
lively as by the proposed use Of numbers.
About the only uniform required for the
streets Of New York is uniform cleanliness;
and that Is not to be secured by convict suits
or prison regulations.
