WHY IT CAN'T BE DONE.

THE DISPATCH some days ago suggested
that if Wall street desired to inspire the
outside public with the confidence neces-
sary to general purchasing movement of
railway shares it should begin by striking
off the Exchange lists ali corporations in
which the notorious practices of manipu-
lation. stock watering, determinations and
construction company contracts had been
resorted to. The New York Telegram
thinks this 'is not unreasonable if it Could
be effectively complied with" But after
a little browsing around the subject it
concludes: 'Whether such censorship
as our cotemporary suggests can ever be
successfully established may well be
doubted
Of course it may. for numerous reasons,
two of which are aIl-sufficient in this con-
nection. First, it is by just such practices
as these that the great powers of Wall
street have built up their fortunes and
the minor powers hope to rival them. If
Wall street should attempt to put these
methods under the ban it would have to
ostracize nine out of ten of its great lead
ers, for there is not more than ten per
cent of the great fortunes built up in
corporate management which does not
owe its rise to the successful practice
of one or more of these methods for trans
ferring the money of small investors to
the pockets of big operators. If that con-
sideration were not conclusive the fact
that the lesser operators would have to
abandon their hopes of great fortune and
.content themselves with the slower gains
of legitimate business would knock the
last breath out of such an attempted re-
form.
The other reason is equally cogent If
all stocks of corporations fostering these
devices were stricken off the lists there
would not be enough left to keep the
Exchange busy for fifteen minutes of each
working day. We might almost adopt
the remark of Sairy Camp, and declare
that we ''don't believe there amt no such
a corporation"
All of which is conclusive against the
adoption of such reform until we ap-
proach the millennial stage? 1t is equally
conclusive that if the ordinary investor
wishes to put his money where he will
have reasonable assurance of getting
back his capital and interest he should
steer clear of Wall street

THEIR CHANCE TO BE USEFUL.

Senator Quay takes the lead among the
Pennsylvania delegates to Washington, in
advocating the Lake Erie ship canal
What are the other Congressman doing
The Senator is Shrewd enough TO grasp an
opportunity to commend himself to public
favor He shows a disposition TO make
himself useful. The other Pennsylyanians
at Washington have been dumb enough to
pay little or no heed to the project until
the public voice forces it upon them.
THE DISPATCH has frequent occasion to
oppose Senator Quay's judgment and
course in the politics of the State, but it
relieves in giving him and others in public
Iiie credit just in proportion as they show
capacity and disposition to serve the in
terastS of their constituents. The poll
ticians who are the first to realize that the
12ere peddling of patronage or furtherance
OF personal ambition does not constitute
craftsmanship or any claim upon the
public. viii have taken long step in the
right direction. The man or set of men,
who can promote the substantial interests
of the community will always have a
superior claim
Let the other Congressman of Western
Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio and West VIr-
ginia, regardless of party or faction, or
personalities, join Senator Quay in start
ing the Government surveys for the ship
canal!

A EINE-CENT SLIT

\ law suit for five cents looks pretty
small, but it sometimes involves a large
principle. The suit for that sum, decided
agains; the Pittsburg Traction Company
yesterday, is of that sort; and the plaintiff
who went to the trouble of pushing ii in
order TO maintain his rights is to be con-
graduated on his success.
A rule of traction companies that when
two or more cars are running in conjunc-
tion passenger in one cannot pass to the
other, after properly proving he has
already paid fare is arbitrary and un-
necessary. A desire to accommodate the
public should lead passenger railway COM
panies to facilitate such changes where
they would increase the comfort of the
passengers. The policy of the companies
has been in the other direction: but, when
they came into collision with the law in
what by the peculiar circumstances of the
case is made the court of last resort, they
may get new light.
The immediate question at Issue in this
case, viz, the right of passenger to 60
into the smoking car to take smoke-was
not perhaps very vital one. But the ey-
ample of the man who is prepared to push
q five-cent suit against big corporation
for the assertion of what he deems his
rights is one which American citizens can
emulate with public profit.

A FIELD FOR FORESTRY.

A recent paper by M. Demontzey, of the
French forest administration, should have
2 strong bearing on question of great
Importance to Pennsylvania, but which is
generally neglected The subject is the
reforesting of mountains
The necessity of protecting mountains
from loss of soil by erosion and the use of
the mountain forest as reservoirs to hold
hack the waters in the spring and dis
tribute them evenly throughout the sum-
mer has been before the French Govern
ment for nearly half century. Some ex-
periments were begun in 1876, and ten
Gears later loss of s50,O00,O00 by floods
melted the Government to take active
measures. The law now in force, passed
in 1862, offers bounties for landed propri-
etors and communities to establish forests
on mountain lands, and empowers the
State to compel such improvements where
necessary. The Government has under
taken the reforesting of about one-fourth
of the nearly 5000, 900 acres OF mountain
lands but its work will cost more than
the private reforestation of the remaining
three-fourths.
lhlS example is OF immense value to
Pennsylvania. This State has an immense
quantity of mountain land of such slight
value for agriculture that very small
premium might make it profitable to
pursue the enterprise of forestry. We
have already reached that stage in the
denudation of the slopes indicated by the
violent floods which follow the spring
fhayyS and tho summer storms and fba
shrunken flow of our rivers during the
protracted periods of pleasant weather
Many mountain slopes denuded of their
valuable timber are now waste land with
a scrub growth upon it which might be
made of great value to coming generations
1t would certainly be good policy for the
State to follow the example of France and
