THE DESTROYER ABROAD.

There will be no cause for wonder if an abb
normally high death-rate in New-lork ana
BROOKLYN be maintained for several weeks more
There is at largo in the streets a potent ana
whnton destroyer of health and life. 1t IS an
enemy with which this public has had semi
annually to contend for a long time, and which,
twice in every year claims long llst OF VIC
Tins At the present date conditions are such
that its victims are certain to be Tar more
numerous than ever before. Were cholera, or
smallpox, or typhus fever TO become epidemic
and prove one-tenth as fatal, there would be
manic. But with this merciless and worst OF
all. utterly unnecessary destroyer among us for
its semi-annual campaign, the public Is COM
naratively Indifferent and the officers of the
law inactive.
We refer to the open horse cars; and we are
guilty of no exaggeration in our reference. For
wears it has been the custom OF various COM
panies TO put these iniquitous vehicles upon
their lines at an seas0nably early date in the
spring, and to keep them there until far too late
in the fall. Many protests have been made and
disreQarded. Physicians have denounced the
use of the cars ursparingly, and have explicitly
attributed thereto nnumerable cases Of illness,

not show greater zeal in their evil course if
they had a profit sharing agreement with the
doctors and undertakers who further deal with
their unfortunate patrons.
The case has been bad enough in previous
years. But it is much worse now. The last win
ter and the present spring have been marked by
climatic or other conditions unusually conducive

pulmonary and kindred ailments. Under such
circumstances one would suppose that street

sense and common decency to exercise more than
ordinary care in all matters pertaining 10 the
health Of the public But, no. Early in April,
the most capricious and untrustwOrthy month Of
the year. out came the open cars, just as be-
fore. with a contempt for comfort and safety
that it is hard to consider not malicious True,
there have been hours at midday when their
use was tolerable or would have been tolerable
had it not been for the fact that a car, starting
on It's trip with the thermometer at summer
heat might not improbably return an hour later
in an almost wintry air. During the present
week these engines of destruction have been
run day and evening up to midnight or later.
The result may not be particularly specified in
the vital statistics, but it will be there in the
form of terribly increased death figures.

THE FOREST COMMISSION.

The report of the Assembly Committee on
Public Lands ana Forestry upon the Forest
Commission and its work Is special order III
the Assembly to-day. 1t will be remembered
that after prolonged discussions, and not little
wranghng in committee, report adverse to the
Commission was made by majority OF one
vote in a committee of eleven members. 1t IS
known to those familiar with the history OF this
report that the final result was unexpected until
the last moment At the end the four Repub-
can members of the committee ana one DEM
ocrat presented minority report sustaining the
Commission There has been during the last
wear some reason TO suppose that the crest OoHl-
mission has not acted wisely and ScrupulOusiy
in all respects. inasmuch as two OF It's mem-
hers constituting majority, are Democrats, and
neither of them is thoroughly well fitted for his
post. We should not have been astomshed IL a
careful and honest scrutiny had discovered Cd
iactionable work. But all sensible persons who
have followed the campaign OF criticism ana
abuse which has been conducted during the last
winter must by this time be convinced that
there was never much basis Tor II. Not a
few of the charges made and urged with
much bitterness were completely reiuted and
made ridiculous by the report OF the COinmls-
SION presented TO the Legislature soon after the
opening Of the session. since that time TIE
TRIBUNE, in common, we believe, with most OF
the citizens OF the State who have taken an in
terest in this matter, has been inclined 10 sus-
tain instead OF condemniug the Commission.
And this favorable sentiment must, in the nature
of things, have been immensely strengthened
| by the fmsy and absurd report adopted by the
majority of the committee, which Is to come up
for discussion in the Assembly to-day.
We do not remember seeing more ridic-
ulous outcome of grave charges stlenuously
made. With much palavenns and at great
length the majority report charges these things,
and nothing else, namely: That the reports Of
the Forest Commission have been meagre; that
the Commission has not rendered annual reports
in January, as required by laws that the Com
mission has not made and amended from time
to time the forestry rules it should have done

RECIPROCITY OF THE RIGHT KIND.

RECIPROCITY OF THE RIGHT KIND.
There are still found men of fair intelligence
in ordinary affairs who imagine that Reciprocity
is in some way modified or limited form of
Free Trade The trouble with these gentlemen
is that they have not yet learned enough of the
political alphabet to know what Protection
means Most of them economize their own
thinking powers, and suffer some sO-called In
dependent newspapers to do their thinking for
them. 1t is not very strange that such persons
have as correct a conception Of the Protective
policy as a useful watchdog has of astronomy.
The essence of Protection is discrimination IN
duties on imports in order to restrain imports
of articles with which this country does or ought
10 supply itself by its home industry. 1t is not
4 departure from the Protective policy in the
slightest degree to admit free of duty anything
this country cannot produce. Free admission
of tea of gum arabic or spices, is not contrary
TO the Protective policy. Neither is free ad-
mission OF India rubber, coffee, or of sugar be-
cause many years of high duties levied for the
pllrpose of revenue have failed to demonstrate
that protective duty would enable this country
10 supply itself with sugar. Neither is free ad-
mission of hides contrary 10 the Protective pol

more abundant, and 50 much cheaper than any

The baseball season had a brilliant cOening

seen from the beginning, but it seems safe to
predict, not only from the opening game, but
from a variety of consenting circumstances, that
the most notable season in the history of our
National game has begun. The attendance at
the Polo Grounds yesterday was over 1900.
A finer day for the first contest could not have
