The Carnival of Flowers.

In some of the larger foreign cities in
southern Europe it is the custom annu-
ally to have what is known as Carnival
of Flowers when Nature is robbed of her
fairest and sweetest blossoms and con-
servatories are laid waste. The flowers
are festooned, used to decorate all con-
ceivable objects, worn on the person, and,
in the end, used to pelt people with.
The finale of the carnival is always a
battle of blossoms. This is the month
Of fiowers-the joyous Maytime Of poets,
when Nature doffs wholly her gray garb
and decks herself in brighter habiliments.
Now ia the time when the lover of nat
ural beauty should take ride down the
valley and witness nature in all it's splen-
dor and when you return your appetite
will be sharpened by the exercise taken,
then 60 to Sparks and buy some OF those
fine goods that he always keeps in stock.

TERMS OF THE DISPATCH.
PITTsBURG. SATURDAY. DEC. 26. 1891.
UNIQUE TUT SEoRT-SIGHTED

In an interview elsewhere the theory of
the traction roads that they can do no
better about furnishing comfortable as
well rs rapid transit is reduced sharply to
its logical conclusions. Those conclusions
are that great as the boon of rapid transit
has been, the present agencies will simply
demonstrate themselves inadequate if they
cannot give better seating capacity than
they are now doing.
II is ridiculous to expect that half the
passengers will be content to go on hang
ing to straps or crowding the platforms
tor all time through four, five or six
mile ride. That is all right during an
emergency, but it would never do to con-
template it as the permanent idea of the
standard of comfort and safety in travel
Chief Brown puts the case quite uniquely
when he says: 1.-The trouble is there are
too many people'-but that is trouble
that will grow as the city grows; so that
unless the traction lines take the more OBJ
rious view that ''the trouble is there are
not enough cars" their inability to meet
the demands for rapid and comfortable
transit will only be the more pointedly il
Illustrated as time passes
1t may h, as the managers say, they
can do no better; but ii they cannot the
question of elevated roads to help them
out will quickly come to the foreground
Meanwhile it would be well for Councils
10 give attention to the subject.

HILLS DEFIANCE OF LAW.

When THE DISPATCH, long before the
announcement of Governor Hills deter
mination to hang on to the New York
Governorship, pointed out the probability
that he would keep Jones out of the place
the conclusion was based on the obvious
desire to exclude a dissatisfied Democrat
from the inside of the State administra-
ton. Events have proved, however, that
there was more positive function for
Hill to exercise 1t was that of exhibiting
partisan and demagogue Governor set
ting the law and courts at defiance in the
interest of seating illegal representatives
of his party in the State Legislature.
Everyone who knew Hill recognized that
in his mind partisan success would be
placed above honesty or respect for the
laws. But the length to which he has gone
in defying the laws and the decisions of the
courts is more than the public was pre-
pared for, even from Hill. 1t is already
on record that in each of the cases where
the returns were manipulated in carrying
out Hills scheme to seat Democratic
Leg gslators the courts have decided against
him. Both Demcratic apd Republican
judges have agreed in their Interpretation
of the law; but that makes no difference.
He has removed two county clerks for
carrying out the order of the courts, and
has capped the climax of his defiance of
judicial decisions by pardoDing Thomas J.
Welsh who was sent to prison for running
off with returns he WAS ordered to deliver
to inspectors of election for correction.
- In this act Hill has completed the practi-
cal declaration that neither law, judicial au-
thority nor honesty avail anything against
his partisan determination to steal an elec-
ton. A party organization in which such
men as Hill and German are supreme.is
one that honest and law-abiding citizens
should carefully separate themselves from.

THE TROUBLE WITH INGALLS,.

Amusement and instruction ming.e in
the announcements from political sources
East and West that if ex-senator ingalls,
had not, as one statement of the case puts
it, been guilty of "cowardly desertion of
his party principles, no one else would
have been considered in the appointment
of a successor to Plumb. But as ingalls,
turned his back on his party the Governor
of Kansas declares he is shut out of the
competition.
This is especially interesting because
the alleged "cowardly desertion" con-
sisted in single speech by Senator ingalls,
at the close of his term, in which he ex-
pressed grave doubts as TO policy of
legislation and administration which
builds up great fortunes in the hands of
the few at the cost of the masses. The
fact that this was clearly case of DEATH
bed repentance, and that ingalls, has since
Topped back very nearly into line, does
not condone his sin with his Republican
censors. But such criticism is remark
able in its allegation that the policy of
creating millionaires by legislative and
corporate favors-which ingalls, tardily
and weakly antagonized-rests on party
principles If this were true the fact
would be good deal more severe on the
Republican party than on ingalls,.
Such talk is all the more striking by its
contrast with the laudations which the
same party organs are giving to the men,
ory of the dead Senator Plumb. The fact
is that Plumb went miles further out of
the party lines than ingalls, did. He op-
posed the Mckinley bill in speech and
voted against it on final passage, while
ingalls, carried it through. Had ingalls,
gone the same length to catch the tide of
public unrest he might have been Senator
to-day; but the Mckinley bill would prob
ably not have passed.
These facts show that the real trouble
with ingalls, is that of all men who have
suffered defeat Politicians cherish
neither hopes from nor mercy for politi-
cal lame duck.

WILL NOT GO BACKWARD.

The persistent antagonism of certain
classes of Dem ocracy to the financial sys-
TEN created by the war administration is
illustrated by the introduction by Senator
Harris, OF Tennessee, within two weeks
of the opening of Congress, of bill "to
repeal all laws discriminating against the
circulation of State banks" As there are
no discriminating laws against the circu-
lation of State banks, but simply law
LAYING a tax which prohibits all such cir
culation, the Senator's purpose is evil
IDENTIFY to restore the old state of bank
imitation, when man who had a dollar
bill in one State did not know what it
might be worth in another. If it would
not be an equal discrimination to enact
that all State bank bills should be of a
color, shape and texture radically different
from the national currency, such pro-
viso would render Senator Harris propo-
sition comparatively innocuous. II might
even, if it were not for the principle of
the, thing be worth while to pass his bill,
in order to have practical demonstration
of the way in which people would refuse
to be imposed on by payments in uncer-
tain State bank paper.
Senator Harris makes the mistake COM
mon to the Bourbon class of supposing
that the wheel of progress can make revo-
lutions backward. The people of the
United States will never return to the
fiuctuating and local State bank after a
quarter-century's experience of paper
issue national in its standing and assured
in its value.

Why . Big Navy Should he Built.

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
In the talk for and against q navy it is as
serted that the European governments
have spent millions IN building warships
that to-day would be of almost as little use
in case OF hostilities as the wooden vessels
of 80 years ago. True, but the fact remains
that those governments do possess navies
ready for instant and terrible use chow in
srant and how terrible Italv's poverty alone
prevented her demonstrating to US last
spring., while We have by comparison none.
Changes and improvements are constantly
taking place in all things, navies included,
and to refuse what the present offers on the
ground that the future may produce some
thing better of its kind is simply puerile
Let us have swift cruisers, then, and pow
erful battle ships of the most improved pat
tern, and have them now. If alterations
rebuild. Arbitration, diplomacy, the spirit
of peace and good will toward all the
world are excellent, no doubt, and worthy
this mighty nation of ours, but let it be borne
in mind that the olive branch is far more
potenS in the grip of the silken glove when
the latter covers the steel gauntlet. Sup
pose Chile were England or France? Let the
Berfng sea dispute, the Canadian fish fuss
and the case of Samoa, when the Stars and
Stripes were tramped upon by German
soldiers answer. In those instances we
arbitrate or resort to the glib toungue of the
diplomat, not from fear, perhaps, but be-
cause We lack the means OF showing our
strength and asserting our rights and dig
nifty as q nation. while the little South
American State we want served up at once
and hot with gunpowder sauce. Perhaps
she deserves thrnshing, but less eagerness
to give it would be better till we are in
shape to bestow a similar dose on countries
of larger growth. Arbitrate first, fight
afterward; only pursue the same policy with
all, whether weak or strong.

at least s., ,009, 900 in the next six years.
As a consideration for this-which does
not appear in the published contract-Mr.
S. W. Allerton, who is in a position to
know, states that they are to receive dis
examinations and drawbacks which will
enable them to do business at a profit,
while outside firms can make nothing.
With these facts before the public the
rise of few to egregious wealth and
controlling position needs no further ex-
planatiou. The corporate claim that
combination prevents discrimination in
such things is also sufficiently ventilated
by the fact that these practices were sup
ported by the railway combination organ

these firms were started on the road to
