or With the Tracks,

The reasonable petition OF the English
Lutheran church on Sixteenth street
brings once o into prominence the
Inconvenience and the obstruction OF
the tracks on that street. The difficulty
OF tho situation is hat the tracks are
there and the railroad company can
keep them there until some solution
agreeable to the company is reached.
Several months ago the B. 4 O. had n
scheme ready to submit, but it never
was presented to Council, probably be-
cause the informal discussion developed
the fact that the city is not in financial
condition to meet the company on the
basis proposed, even if that seemed de-
sirablc. Between Council and the rail-
road company 1t should be possible to
mature 4 practicable way out OF the
trouble.
The tracks must come Off Sixteenth
street. That thoroughiare is too i'm.
portant to be practically given up to
anybody; Main and Market and Chap
line streets arc too important to be
b~lockaded by anybody.

How To Propose.

We are sure that our trends the un-

trary men have been asking women TO

a formula for this important business it
would have been n great accommoda-
ton to all who have come after him and
TO the generations OF mcn yet 10 come.
An English woman who processes to
write out OF tho ~iullness Of fifty years
experience tells at great length how q

her space is given up 10 telling how not
to do it, which may be necessary to the
proper laying OF the foundation. man
who goes 10 n house TO propose mar.
riage should not take his hat in the
drawing.room with him, for in case OF
refusal he might have to tumble
around forit; which would be extremely
embarrassing and might prejudice the
girl against him in case no comes to
enc his suit.
A man should not 60 down on his
knees to propose, for that is undigniiled
and is likely to make n girl laugh. A
man should never propose from 4 dis

except in very special circumstances

case OF acceptance, should man brush
the fringe from oifhcr forehead to look

girl does not like to have her bang dis.

Sneaker Crisp With His Party.

Before the spcakership contest came
to an end the INTELLIGEScER pointed
ont the uniairncss Of some OF the
attacks on Mr.. Crisp, particularly that
based on the assumption that he is
lacking in thorough devotion to the
free trade principle OF his party. Moth
ing in his career Warranted such an
accusation.
Some OF the Democratic newspapers
and their Mugwump allies made the us.
sault because they love Mills more. Mr..
Crisp took tho very first opportunity to
reply in defense OF himself. What he
said on this point is worth repeating:

Could Mr.. Mills have promised more
than this? Speaker Crisp yields to no

Tho City aud the Electrical Company.
The Wheeling Electrical Company is

II wheeling Electrical Company Is
willing 10 sell out to the city Tor the
face value OF its capital stock, which is
understood to DO about $4,000. The
proposition is backed BY something i'll
the nature OF IN argument by whichit
is sought to show that it will be only
common justice to deal on this basis, so
that stockholders may come out whole.
1t would be the rankest idiocy, the
baldcst misrepresentation OF the peo-
pies money. The electrical company
has no thought that the city will do
anything Of the sort. So much OF the
company's property and assets" as the
city is obliged to buy, if it DO obliged
to buy any, represents the very small
end of $4,000. 1t could be bought new
for enough less to leave as q balance a
comfortable fortune.
Under the act OF 1891, which regulates
the transaction, the company's grounds
and buildings are excluded from the
purchase. The city is TO take only $50
much of the property and assets, not
including grounds and buildings, Of the
Wheeling Electrical Company, as may
be intended and used for generating,
: distributing, controlling or using cleo
tricity ior lighting purposes"
There is no $4,000 in that. Nor
would there be ii the buildings and
grounds were thrown in. Measured by
the market value OF the company's
stock, the whole value OF everything it
has, buildings and grounds and fran
chise included, is q little more than a
fourth OF $4,000.
Ii the city is to buy the water in the
stock that element OF value should be
measured by the gallon and sold ut the
market price OF Ohio river water. Ii
the stockholders made u bad investment
when they went into the venture it is
not for the city to make good their
loss, and the city would not be permit
ted to buy on that basis ii it desired to.
On the supposition that the company
is serving its customers as well us it can,
it has q very unsatisfactory outfit worth
very little money. Ii the price shall
over be fixed by arbitration, as the act
OF 1891 provides, and ii the arbitrator
be business men and honest, they will
cut an enormous slice off the asking
price.
The company will have to take what
itcan get by arbitration or get out OF
the city's way. This is the law as the
company had it amended before it was
passed.

have believed that tho Democratic
party would DO 4 fit instrumcntality for
the accomplishment OF thrift reform and
for the clean and honest administration
OF tho govcrnInont.-NeU York Times
(Mugwump-Free Trade).
Tho two wings OF the Democratic
party have been fighting each other
with all tho intensity OF men who have
rooted convictions and whose convic-
tons are, moreover, supplemented by
personal interests OF the gravest nature.
II the western and southern policy
should be adopted, Mr.. Cleveland would
have to stand aside for somebody else.
No wonder there was intense feeling,
and the result Of tho decision which
the caucus finally reached cannot
be definitely anticipated.-Mew York

This result is a triumph for the con-
s~crvative forces in the Democracy and
o kick at the ~mugwumps. 1t is n prom
ise OF Il safe course on the part OF the
majority in the house. 1t makes
brighter the prospect Of electing 4

His election represents the conviction
OF tho majority that the end aimed at

dent spirit in the great Democratic
majority.-NeC York World (Dcm.)
