Who Can Believe ItP

To the Tobacco Leaf-Chronicie;
The "Old Man" IL undoubtt dly In
his dotage, or past reaching that un-
happy state, Judging from one Of his
recent utterances. For instance he
said a day or two ago that The sales
from now to the end Of July would
be / 800 Hhds. per W. elk. Now, grant
ing that the receipts for June will be
5000 hhds., (Which Is not pr0bable)
the total receipts will be 5000 hhds.,
and not more than 25. 900 for the year.
At present only 1900 Lhds. are actual
ly for sale. Now add to this tho
8, 900 to como. we will have II, 900 for
sale. Selling at the rate Of |, 500 hhds.
per week, the unsold stick July 1st
will be only 1900 Hhds. Who can
believe this? YOUNG MAN.

PRESIDENT HARRISON.

10 Il to the credit 0f the American
people. and particularly that portion
which bclongs 20 the party victorious
in the lati elucli1n, that amid the Wild
roioicings and the n,lsy enthusiasm
over their triumph they have with
al.,ost entire unanimity accorded
President Harrison respectful aud
friendly treatment. There have been
n foy instances--we have heard Of one
or two in Utah-whore speakers ut
jollidcatlon meetings have undertaken
to nllude suceringly to the chief mag
istrate, but in every case 40 far es re-
ported such hlluslons have been re-
ceived with cold displeasure by the
audience, and the ill.mannerod ora
tors have met the silent but
none the less effective rebuko that they
merlted. No matter how widely ut
variance with some ideas OF policy and
government he may be, the fact re-
mains that he has occupied during
nearly four years, and still occupies,
the highest office within the glft OF
man; distinction and an honor that,
apart from any characteristics 81 his
own, will not be denied To him hy any
save those destitute Of taste anu breed
ing.
But Precedent Harrison has other
claims upon the consideration Of his
fellow citizens than those which
merely rest upon his occupancy Of the
White House. According to his lights
he has performed his duty faithfully
and In the main accoptahly.
He has brought to his high oillce
sincerity and integrity. In himself
or In his administration there has not
been found taint OF scandal. Affairs
have been managed with cleanneas
aud patriotism. Mistakes no may have
made, and some OF his acts have not
escaped sharp criticism; but he has
given proof OF slncsre devotion to
Atuerlcanism aud n strong desire TO
promote tho national veal. In his
home life there has been a sweetness
and a simplicity that has warmed the
popular heart, and In his recent be-
ruavoment he has shown the world
how TO bo manly In the deepest sorrow.
Political enemies admit that his course
has been slngularly upright and con-
sentative, and none can point to crisis
which found him inadequate.
II would therefore seem that In these
daysof his domestic bereavement aud
political disappointment lac deserves
from others besides Republicans n gem
erous feeling and a hearty display OF
sympathy, esteem and respect.

At either end Of the sacrament table
which was likewise covered with white

THE EIVEPSIUE IMPROTEUENT.

The Riverside Drive is by common consent
on, of the gl0ries of the metropolis. We are
all proud of it, and We all should stand to-
gether in the determination that whatever is
necessary 10 be done TO render il as attractive
a, possible To the greatest number shall be
done, and done promptly. Of late TIE TRIB-
rNE and nearly all the other New orIi
papers have been fighting to preserve Central
Park from vandalism. These efforts have been
crowned with success-there will be no speed
way built in that superb pleasure ground OF
the masses. Now, let all who were engaged
in that great popular crusade join heartily in
the movement looking to doing as well by the
Riverside Drive as by Central Park. II needs
no argument to prove that If the Riverside
Drive is TO be "a JOY forever to New York
ers and to all the rest Of mankind who sooner
or later come here to visit, it is necessary that
the waterfront forming its western boundary
shall belong to the city and shall be restricted
and improved.
Therefore the action taken by the Commits
sioners of the Sinking Fund at their last meet
ing is of general interest. Controller Myers
insisted that the waterfront stretching from
the railroad tracks to the river should he ac-
quired by the Department of Parks rather than
by the Department of Docks. There may be
room for discussion on this point, but there
can be none on the main one which is the de-
STABILITY of New-York asserting her right of
eminent domain to the end that the waterfront
shall contribute to the common enjoyment, and
shall not, by being left in the hands of num-
Der of private owners, who may Or who may
not be public spirited, become an eyesore and
Il nuisance.
The authorities of New-York for what they
have done in this matter are entitled to the
heartiest commentator. In deciding to ac-
qure in behalf of the city the entire river-front
from Seventy -second-st. to One-hundred- and
twenty nnth-st., they have done our city a
service whose value it would be difficult to
Overcstimate. The past of tts Riverside Drive
is secure and this action secures its future.
