PREsERTE COLUMBIIS NEW SITE.


Whatever may be the fate OF the bill intro
duced by Senator Plmkitt at Albany on Monday
last providing for the opening Of various streets
in the neighborhood of Moningsde Park, it is
earnestly to be hoped that the clause relating to
One-hundrod- and nineteenth ST, between Am
sterdam-avc. and the Boulevard, will not be
enacted There is no valid reason why that
street should be opened, and there are potent
reasons why it should not lie. In the very
nature Of the case there can never be any con-
siderable amount Of crosstown traffic at that
point and what little there is can without the
least hardship make a slight detour of one short
block and pass through One hundred andtwc
tieth-st. On the other hand the opening OF the
street would utterly ruin the proposed new site
of Columbia College by cutting off One-fourth
Of it, The value Of the property for college
purposes largely depends upon its remaining in
single block. and it was on the supposition
that it would be allowed so to remain as pro-
vided by law in 1898 and again in 1884, that
the authorities Of Columbia selected it. Should
the proposed street be opened, they would per-
hans be constrained to abandon the property
altogether and seek another site, somewhere be-
yond the limits of Manhattan Island.
II is absurd to claim that there is any public
demand for the opening OF any street between
One-hundred andsixtcenrh and One-hundred-
and-twentieth-a distance OF only $50 feet or
that any public service would be rendered there
by The proposal must have originated in ig
norance or misapprehension of the circumstances
Of the case. or something worse. and a simple

There can be no question about the fraudu-
lent character of the Tammany enumeration
The figures for the Ist Assembly District on
which we commented yesterday, furnish sufli-
Gent proof of tbs. Now that they are complete
they show an increase Of population Of almost
u goo since the regular Federal cens's was
taken. This is prcposteIous. But still more
fragrant clsc comes to notice in one election dis
trct Of the With Assembly District. There
were Az voters registered here last iall, lndl-
eating a population IF 300 or 5000. me
Tammany counters place the population OF TINS
district az 9.OS5 The aim appears to have
been to make the population of the entire city
100000. And it is on such frauduenty
swclled returns that the reapportlonmcnt OF SEN
ate and Assembly districts is to be made while
at the same time in the country districts the
count has purposcly been kept down as small
as possible. Have the people no redress for such
an outrage?
