On Monday last the first number of THE
Providence NEWS, the new Republican
paper of Rhode Island, made its appear
ance. The Times naturally takes an es-
pecial interest in the News, for from this
cradle Of journalists who have made their
mark in the world have gone forth John
L. Heaton, Eliza Putnam Heaton and AL
bert II. Langtry-all of them New Eng
landers by birth, extraction and sentiment
who, under the firm name of Heaton
Langtry 81 Co., assume responsibility for
all that the NEWS may say or do. And we
are glad 10 say that the News is little
daisy, and gives promise in its opening
numher OF the success that we believe
await t.
Thcrc is a moral in the story Of Provi-
dence journalism ,hat may we'll bc he,Ged
by newspaper men everywhere Khulr
Island, although circumscribed in terri
tory, is one OF the great industrial States
of the Union. and one of the most intelli-
gent; naturally, il is also one of the old
stronghOlds of New England Republican
ism. In the Providence Journal IL had
for years an intelligent reflex of the senti-
ment of the people, and the Journal
flourished, keeping step with popular sen
tment and prospering by popular appre-
citation.
" But Jeshurun waXed fat and kicked"

fated with the idea that its editorial wis
dom was wiser than the concentrated
wisdom Of all the rest Of Rhode Island.
aud from that fateful year of - that tried
the veins and heart of American news
papers. the Journal, and its annex. the
Bulletin, have been hopelessly sunk i'm the
quagmire Of Mugwumpery. They have
made good fight, but the people have re-
pudiatcd them.
II is in the midst Of n community weary
of Mugwump journalism that the Repub-
lican NEWS makes its appearance. We
think it will succeed. We know IL will
deserve success and we don't think that
anything that deserves success is likely to
fail i'm Rhode Island.

fair grounds. but he would stop the
machinery and everything calling for
especial labor. He thought that sacred
concerts and moral lectures might be given
without serious infraction Of the sacred
character OF the day. There is no way to
get the opinions of the people ON this
question. We can only guess with more
or less shrewdness as to the result of a
vote, if one was possible. There are COM
munities which would vote against Sunday
opening. In the West. including the Pacific
Coast, the majority would probably vote the
other way. In this city ehureh-goers visit
the park and other places of resort Sunday
afternoon. 1t does not occur to them that
there is any wrong in so doing. The notion
is growing that good entertainment may
be enjoyed Sunday and that q bad one
should be prohibited at any time People
whose religious sensibilities would be
shocked by the opening of the fair on
Sunday are not shocked at the sight Of
streetcars thronged with pleasure-seekers
and private carriages whirling in every
direction except toward a church.

THE posroFFIcE SITE.

Postmaster General Wanamaker turned
his visit to San Francisco to practical ac-
count by examining the various sites which
have been offered to the Government for
Post0ffice, and it is believed that before he
left he had nearly made up his mind which
was the best to select He sought little
counsel except from single citizen, whose
knowledge of the city is large. In his COM
pany he. visited personally every spot that
has b e. n recommended and acquainted him
self with its advantages and its drawbacks.
The result of his observations he keeps to
himself; indeed the final selection rests with
a commission, of which he is only one MEN,
Der.
He appears to have made mp his mind on
two or three principles which should govern
the selection of a site. In the first place, 1t
is not at all essential that the site should be
in the center of population. Nne-tenths OF
the people who use the Postoffice never 90
near it. They get their mail from carriers
three or four times day and they dispatch
their correspondence through the droD-letter
boxes. To the resident of the Western Adj
dition or the Mission it is immaterial where
the Postoffice is located, and the same may
be said of the resident of South San Fran
cisco.
lis essential that the Postofice should
not be too far from the points from which
mails are sent Out-that is TO say, from the
water front, at which steamers lie, from the
ferry landings at the foot OF Market and
other streets and from the railroad depot
at Third and Townsend. Between the time
at which the mail-pOuches are locked at the
PostUffice and the time at which the ferry
boats, trains OF steamers depart not over an
average of fifteen minutes should elapse.
This principle appears to limit the selection
of a site to an area whose extreme west
boundary would be Stockton street and
whose north boundary would not be far
north of California street.
Finally, the site must be large, so that
mail-wagons can travel round the building
with dispatch, and that the building itself
shall accommodate. not only the various de-
partmentS OF the POstoffice, but the United
States courts, the Surveyors Office and the
other Federal offices.
San Francisco occupies the same position
on this side of the continent that New \ Ork
occupies on the other. The two cities are
the front doors Of the nation. At them
foreigners knock for Ambulance. 1t was
deemed important to the national prestige
that the Government building at New York
which confronted the nations of Europe
should be imposing, as beftted the home of
the national authority, and some six millions
of public money were expended on its con-
struetiOn. II would be wise economy TO
spend as much, if it were necessary, to con-
front the nations of Asia with a building at
San Francisco which would impress them
with a sense of the greatness and wealth of
the United States.

AGAINST A SUNDAY SHOW.

The New York Independent has obtained
the opinions of ninety-seven Roman CathoIic
and Protestant Archbishops and Bishops on
the proposition to close the Worlds Fair on
Sunday. The ayes have it by a large
majority. Nearly every one of the
Protestant prelates opposes a Sunday OPEN
ing. A small minority Of the Roman
Catholic would permit short session on a
Sunday afternoon. But two Professionals
would allow even an afternoon opening
One colored Methodist Bishop thought the
public should have a chance to visit the
fair on Sunday. One reason given is that
Sunday is so seriously attacked that the
church cannot give its countenance to
any further laxity in regard to the obsery-
aDce of the day; another that the exhibit
ton cannot be opened on Sunday without
shocking the religious sensibilities of a
great majority Of our people. Archbishop

the supposition that larger proDOrtion Of
