THE COMMERCIAL MARINE.

The bids for ocean mail service are more
favorable than the low premiums paced upon
new enterprises by the shipping legislation OF
last February encouraged us to hope for. There
are four offers for mail service under the
American flag on routes which are not now fol-
lowed These bids are outside the range Of the
operations of the existing American lines in the
carving trade with Brazil Nassau, Cuba, Mex
leo. Venezuela, the Isthmus and China. There
is promise of improved service with all these
countries with the exception OF Brazil. SO far
as we can Judge from critical examination Of
the proposals and the transportation resources
of these lines, at least nine new vessels will
be needed to meet the requirements of the
improved service on the old routes. This IS a
most satisfactory result, which will be worth
every dollar paid for carrying the mails under
the Postal Subsidy Act The organization of
four new routes is result of even greater i'm
portance.
One Of these routes includes weekly service
between Boston and Liverpool in steamers of the
first class averaging 5000 tons ard capable
Of making 30 knots. The bid is offered by the
Columbia Safety Company new enterprise Of
whose financial resources we know nothing. The

the first importance in the restoration of the
American commercial marine, and we hope that
the offers have been made in good faith and are
amply supported by capital. 4 second and
wholly trustworthy bid is made by the New
York and Cuba Company for service with the
lower ports of the Plate This is an offer in
entire conformity with the proposals for 16-knot
ships of 5000 tons which will reach Montevideo
and Buenos Ayes in eighteen days from New
York. The time now occupied is between thirty
five and forty days under the most favorable
conditions With transfer Of passengers and
freight at Rio to European lines.
Two other offers are for service between Gulf
and Caribbean ports. One is made by the Pa
ciic Mail Company for regular trips between
New-Orleans and Colon. with stops at BluefieldS,
GreytOwn, Port Limon, Cartagena and Savanilla.
The other is from new company seeking to
establish commun atoms between Galveston and
the Venezuelan and Colombian ports. The ser

irregular and inadequate, and it is to be hoped

Judge Barrett in a decision rendered yester-
day, takes the same view as Judge Dugro, on
which comment was made in these columns yes
terday, that thirty days residence in an election
district is necessary to entitle citizen to vote.
No other construction of the specific language
of the Constitution is possible. The decision OF
Judge Patterson that Assembly District (not
election DISTRICT was meant, was based it seems,
on an incorrect copy of the Constitution, and
Judge Patterson now agrees fully with Judge
Barretts Interpretation of the section in ques-
ton. This decision is especially gratifying to
Republicans. They have taken this view of the
matter all along, and are confident that they will
now be better able to defeat Tammanys iniqui-
tous schemes.

SENATOR MILLER'S SPEECH.

After the thrill and excitement of the great
meeting in Madison Square have passed away
there will remain the fact that the participation
of ex-senator Miller and Senator IlScOcll was a
tremendous blow to Democratic hopes. 1t is not
necessary TO recapitulate the false assertions
made week after week in countless forms by
Democratic papers and speakers, to the effect
that Mr. Miller and his friends were offended
and would stab the Republican ticket this year.
This was the only answer that could be made
to the open and perfectly well-known hostility
of many influential Democrats, including some
Of the most worthy in the State, to the ticket
put up at Tammany Hall. When Mr.. Miller
delivered his strong argument on Monday night
that refuge of falsehood was taken from the
Democratic party.
What Mr. Miller said was worthy of atten-
ton as well as the fact of his participation.
His chief argument was that the dictation OF
Tammany Hall would be resented, rebuked and
suppressed, by Democrats as well as by Repub-
leans He charged that the Democratic party
of the State had abdicated it's only right to ex
list as a party which should express the wishes
of its members, and should therefore permit
them to exercise an equal power in its control
citizens, consulting for the public good and
actuated by an equal personal interest in the
welfare of the State, Democracy now offers a
secret society in which a few men hold absolute
control. which has absorbed all political power
in the city of NewYork fills all the offices here,
controls the disbursement of many millions
yearly, hires thousands Of hands, blacllmals
thousands of business men, property owners, sa-
loonkeeperS men engaged in various avOcations,
lawful and unlawful, and through that vast
power has finally taken by the throat the Dem
ocratic party in the State dctqtine its candidates
and its policy. Mr. Miller is absolutely right
when he makes this assertion:
a few nen-you can count them On the fingers Of
one Hand-tOday dictate to the Democratic party Of
this city every candidate for every office to be filled by
the votes of the people. Not only that but they con-
troll every appointment that is TO be made say that,
I'm Republican form Of government is opposed to the
interests Of the people and to their liberties
Such an organization only condemnation from
Democrats as well Republicans
The question is whether such a deSpotiSm can
maintain itself in the Empire State. The Re-
pubcans are perfectly justified in claiming that
this question lies behind all issues between par
ties regarding the tariff, the coinage of silver. or
other matters of National importance. Whether
right or wrong in these matters to-day, the Dem
ocratic party Of New York has become a menace
to the liberties of the people If this despotsm
of four or five men can be successful in this
State, "what is to prevent it from exercising the
same control over the destinies Of the National
Democratic party ?' The Democrat must be
dull indeed who does not see that the National
