RAPID TRANSIT STILL REMOTE.

IL is impossible not to feel touch of disap-
pOintment at Mr.. Steinway's confession that the
Rapid-TIansit Commission has made no APP
preach to a decision as to what plans it will
ultimately adopt" and that at least month or
two must still eapse before the public can ex-
pect any action. OF course we realize the i'm
portance of proceeding deliberately and of Civ
ing full consideration to all the advantages and
disadvantages of every plausible scheme sug-
gested. The Commission is asked to do perma-
nent work, to solve the great problem OF city
life and it may well be said that the preliminary
work is the most important of all, and that time
spent in rendering future mistakes impossible
is well spent. All this is as true as it is OBJ
viOuS, but 1t is also true that the Commission
has had the subject of rapid transit before it
for over a year, and that its authority has been
complete for two months 1t did not come, when
the Act of January % was passed, stranger
TO the problem and certainly enough had been
said and done since i was first named to i'm
press it's members with the extreme urgency of
the situation. Every month that passes brings
into the city 1000 more passengers, and every
day the crowds in the elevated and surface cars
become denSer and more impatient for relief.
The occasion does not often arise when the
public is justified in asking q number of busy
men to set aside their affairs and to give them
selves over to the business Of the community.
But when such an occasion does come, to be
asked to respond TO it involves compliment
that is we'll worth the sacrifice. The settlement
of this supreme question of transit could only
be intrlsted to Just that class of men whose
minds, hearts and hands are already full to
oyerfowing. Only that class would have the
experience or the public confidence necessary
for such a labor. 1t is asking a good deal of
the Commission. we know. but not more than
men of public spirit and zeal for the welfare
and progress of their great city should be will
ing to give. The people are painfully tired of
the existing situation. Every hour of its pro-
ongaton is an hour of widespread ANNOYANCE

they serve so faithfully her girls are enormously

the contrary, Utica, by means Of her sons who are
in the newspaper business, has done its best To
exasperate her into dying with all her songs I'M
printed. II the Sweet Singer of Corn Hill had
not been as plucky as she is poetic she might
have submitted in silence to the outrages piled
upon her In that case Utica might still hold
up her head, since the general public would not
have found her out But having made up her
mind few days ago not to condone the conduct
of the Utica editors any longer, she turned upon
them she charged at them in a style which was
worthy of the Light Brigade itself. Listen to
her we quote from The Observer:
THE MEAN EDITOR.
He keeps your manuscript and stamps,
And silent is thereafter
While you arc forced TO tears-then he
INDUCES In gay laughter
While you grow thin, for want of luck,
lie fattens on your sorrow,
He does not publish what you send
To-day, nor yet tomorrow
We hope sometime he'll get his pay
In being snubbed most greatly:
BY some one in authority
To use him up completely.
We know not why an editor
Should not more courteous be:
And, when big letters como TO him
Their contents try to sec.
He might find them superior
And. too, regret some future day
That they away were thrown.
II will be admitted by impartial observers that

of mankind as q literary centre. But after
Lis revelation Of her pronounced cruelty to
one of her own offspring, poetess by birth,
achievement and the habit of inclosing stamps
to editors for the return Of her unavailable
verse, Utica might as well cherish an ambi-
ton to be known as volcano centre or a seaport
centre or date palm centre. She will doubtless
long continue to be hop centre, but her literary
goose is cooked, and that, too, by her own hand.

A new French law empowers the courts. when
dealing with offenders who have committed crimes
not of the highest grade, and who have never
been previously accused, to suspend sentence on
the criminal for period of five years. and if in
that time no additional accusation is made the
offender escapes punishment The Judges in this
State, without formal authorization by law, fire.
queatly allow young offender to go free after
he has pleaded guilty, with warning that il
subsequently arrested he may be compelled 10
serve a term of Imprisonment on the original
charge. The French law legazes such system,
and if the judges act with discretion it is possible
that young men. led by sudden temptation into
first offence, may be saved from criminal
career through leniency in the disposition of the
cases against them. The punishment for second
offences is made correspondingly heavy.

The line between expert and nonexpert testi-
mony is fine one. The other day physician
was on the witness-stand in Trenton court. when
the question, " How many ribs are there in the
human body?' was put to him. He refused to
answer on the singular ground that the question
was a technical one, and that he was not under
any obligation to answer it because he had not re-
ceived fee for expert testimony. The Judge,
properly we think, committed him for contempt of
court. 1t is to be presumed that every doctor
knows the correct answer to the question. This
witness, however, may have suffered lapse of
memory. In that case there would be no impro-
priety in the Judges excusing him on the ground
that to have confessed his ignorance would have
involved loss of professional standing, and con-
sequent loss Of fees.
