PENALTIES OF CITY LIFE,

The Rev. DR.. Rainsford, of New York,
yesterday delivered at Chautauqua an
address on the general aspects of civiliza-
ton. He will be remembered as the
clergyman who recently astonished the
world by proposing that the church should
fight the liquor traffic by opening saloons
under its own management. DR.. Rams
ford spoke yesterday on subject he has
studied much, and the wisdom of his re-
marks indicates his familiarity with it. 1t
is one of the most important questions of
the day, whether from social, moral,
political or economic point of view. He
said, ''the church scarcely understands
the city, and the poor certainly do not
understand the church, And he clearly
indicated that hitherto the fault has been
mainly on the side of the church, by
pointing to district in New York where
the population has increased by 100, 900 in
ten years, while the number of churches
has simultaneously decreased by sixteen.
Some idea of the extent of the field
which is open to ameliorating influences
may be estimated by his statement that
there are 1873, 900 children under years of
age in New York, and that 160. 600 live in
tenement houses The same thing is true
in less degree of Pittsburg and every
city where men and women gather to-
gether in unnatural numbers. There is
ample room for improvement here. Con-
trasts abound, and luxury is found within
stones throw of drudgery. And surely
the dwellers in palaces can do something
more for the inhabitants of disreputable
shanties than they have tried to do hith-
erto. From the most selfish point of view
it is to their advantage to make the whole
city as healthy as possible, and even in an
age of competition it will pay to make
comfort and cleanliness replace over
crowding and fifth.

PAvEMENTs FOR THE FUTURE.

A recent paper by Mr.. Robert Gillian in
the Engineering Neaos gives a valuable
statement of the experience of American
cities with pavements and the results de-
duced therefrom. The article gives the
mileage of pavements in the different
cities. The mileage of first class granite
block ranges from 321 in New York to 43
in Atlanta, and of second class from 400 in
Philadelphia to "a in New York St Louis
leads in macadamized streets, having 294
miles, while Chicago has 226, Milwaukee
POI, and other cities less amounts. Wood
pavements survive in Chicago to the ex-
tent of 40 miles, while no other cities
reach 100 miles. Buffalo leads in asphalt
with 135 miles
The average life of granite pavement
is 30 years with light traffic, but under
heavy traffic it is reduced to 10 or 10 years;
wood pavements 3 to 10 years; asphalt
10 to 20 years, which evidently presumes
better pavement than some in Pittsburg's
recent experience; but no better than one
pavement of the sort which is now nearly
20 years old.
The recommendation of Mr.. Gillian for
city streets is granite block for heavy
traffic, and macadam for streets of light
traffic. The latter recommendation will
strike most minds as rather singular.
While it can hardly be approved for lead
ing suburban streets, it is worth consider.
ing for side streets. There are many
streets in Plttsburg left unpaved on
account of the cost of the regulation
pavements, which could be made very
attractive by macadamlzing at cost of
about dollar per foot front. On street
where heavy traffic would not wear the
macadam into ruts its smooth surface
would make the roadway pleasanter for
driving than any pavement except the
costly and comparatively shortlived
asphalt.
One consideration with regard to pave
ments this writer appears to neglect He
recommends block pavements on the
principal streets for its durability This is
correct as far as it goes, but it does not
give full weight to the economic value of
perfect smoothness. This is affected not
only by the wear and power required by
present means of using the streets, but by
the adaptability to future developments.
For instance: We spend perhaps $40, 900 9

PlTTSBU RG. TUESDAY. AUGUSTA 1892.
TWELVE PAGES
THE TIME RIPE FOR A TEST.

The first State election since the open
ing of the national campaign was held in
Alabama yesterday. The contest has been
exceedingly bitter between the Farmers
Alliance and Democratic candidates for
Governor. The Republicans placed no
ticket in the field, hoping TO profit in the
future by the dissensions in the formerly
solid white column. Kolb, the Alliance
nominee, was State Commissioner of
Agriculture, and claimed great popu-
larity among the grangers. Governor
Jones was renominated by the regular
Democratic Convention.
A feature of the canvass has been the
promises made by each faction that they
would protect the colored voters who cast
their ballots with them. The first returns
received indicate that the old-line Demo-
cratic ticket has been successful, and
claims are made that large numbers of
negroes voted that way. While the result
is not directly satisfactory to those who
have desired break in the solid South,
the fact that the colored citizens were
allowed to vote at all is an encouraging
feature.
Of an overwhelming victory for Mr.. Jones
yesterdays election can hardly fail to act
as a check to the third party campaign,
not only in the South, but throughout the
country. Western Republican farmers
are not likely to allow themselves to be
deiuded into chasing chimeras while the
Southern planters cling firmly to the
Democracy. By thus opening the eyes of
the enthusiasts of Kansas and Nebraska
the result could hardly fail to be benefi-
cial to the Republican cause. And, even
in Alabama, the future is not without
promise. The Democrats may have
defeated the Farmers Alliance, but
that does not afford definite
indication of the result of three-cornered
struggle, in which protection is an aggres-
sive feature. Animosities have been en-
gendered within the hitherto united white
ranks which can scarcely be entirely OBJ
liberated before November. And then,
too, the negroes having once been allowed
to vote, may insist upon continuing to do
so in the more important national contest.
The matter should be thoroughly tested by
an active and earnest Republican can
vass in every Southern State.

and then $50, 200 per mile must be spent to
provide track smooth enough for rapid
transit vehicles If the whole street were
made sufficiently smooth the day is in
sight when independent coaches propelled
by storage batteries could travel over them
without any tracks. The saving would
pay for repairing with asphalt every 10 or

1t is well to judge by experience OF
pavements as Of everything else; but the
possibilities of the future are also an

be planned to meet them as well as

WILLIAM AND BISMARCK.

Emperor William is visiting England
and much powder is being burned in his
behalf. The echoes of the powder reach
us through the cable dispatches, but fur
ther results from the imperial visit are to
be expected.
In his early reign William undertook a
large amount of travelling for thepurpose
of visiting other royalties in the expecta-
ton of settling off-hand the problems of
European craftsmanship. He was rather
disposed to snub England at that time for
private reasons as well as the considera-
ton that it is assuredly governed by rep
resentative body. The changes Of time
have made him more assiduous in visiting
England than any other country. What
he hopes to accomplish there is not clear.
Perhaps he desires to incite his grand
mamma to the royal stand of refusing to
have anything to do with Mr.. Gladstone,
and set up claim to be the realruler OF
England as strenuOusly as the grandson
does concerning his imperial power in
Germany.
While the Emperor is travelling and pos
sibly keeping up the delusion in his mind
that he is aiding to rule Europe, Bismarck
continues to growl because he is not al
lowed tv aid in that task. The changes
effected by the whirligig of time are
most apparent in the latest assertion of
the man of blood and iron that "the will
of the monarch must be brought into har-
mony with the peoples convictions. u
What an immense difference it makes even
to great statesman whether he is on the
inside or outside of the governing power

CANADIAN CATHOLIC SCHOOLS TO GO

The Decision That Separate Schools Can
not Be Maintained Sustained.
OTTAWA, ONT. Aug. There is consider
able excitement among Roman Catholics
over the judgment Of the Manitoba school
case by the Imperial Privy Council. the
highest court in the British empire. British
cablegrams indicate that the decision over
rules the Judgment of the Dominion Su-
preme Court, and maintains the constitu-
tionality Of the act passed by the Manitoba
Legislature abolishing Catholic separate
schools in that province.
A test case resulted in the refusal of the
Winnipeg Catholics to pay taxes in support
of the public schools. The Catholics won in
all the inferior courts until they reached the
Privy Council.
