enmity OF ALEXANDER III. BISMARCK mas
said, and is now certain to repeat with en-
phasis. that il any increase OF the German
army be needed, the necessity is due to the
official incompetence which in brief space
managed to transform the Russian auto
crat from friend into foe.

tended to precpitate a war between France
and Germany at q time when war as ne

with a patriotic and some with base mo-
tive, CApRrvI now accuses him OF inventing
the whole story. and brings forward several
documents which he pronounces inconsist-
emit with BrsMARcK's assertion. Germany.
he says, instead OF pursuing the Machia-
vellian course imputed to her. was by no
means the aggressor in 1870. but. on the
contrary, did her utmost in the way OF con-
Citation. CApR1vI's aim. Of course. Is TO
put BISMARCK into the position OF de-

expose him to odium by accusing him OF

an "old weakling."
There is none OF CAPRrvl's charges which
cannot he reconcilcd by an impartial audi

his country and his King But they have
been publicly and deflantly made before
the Parliament Of the German nation. and
they challenge an answer. We have no
doubt that reply will be promptly forth

may have cause to regret the hour when
they forced BISMARCK to confront them in

temperance Of the ex-Chancellor in a
chamber which was the scene OF his Par

An Infamous Scheme.

PARKHrRsr's scheme OF organizing
vigilance committee, or Vigilance League
Us he calls It. proceeds on the Assumption
that the regular forces Of law ana order III
New York are negligent OF their duty anu
that accordingly private individuals tiius'
step forward to save the town from gong
to the devil.
IT does not appear that no proposes 10 go
so far IA the famous Vigilance Committee
OF San Francisco and preserve the morais
OF the town by the administration OF iEhch
law. He merely wants to carry out MS oe-
tective operations on large scale anu with
the assistance of great number OF sub
ordinates His scheme is TO appoint
young fellows as supervisors OF tho
public morals in each OF tho 1,l37 cleo
ton districts. and to set them TO
work at sowing about their neighborhoods
to find out whether anything wrong is
roinp on. or course they will discover
what they are after. even II they have toget
up the wicLedness themselves. Their curl
osity will be stimulated. and the COMPETE
ton among them to gain distinction as de-
tectives will be eager.
How the public will regard this new and
extensive industry Is another matter.
Under PARKHURsT's plan every inhabitant
OF New York is liable to be Swallowed by
these impertincnt young chaps. The
names. residences. nationality. and politi-
cal standing OF the people OF every district
are to be obtained and tabulated MS IL they
were suspected thieves. As a matter of
course. the swarming spies will seek to
magnify their detective officc by keeping
an eye on all the doings OF the citizens to
see whether they follow tho line PARK
HURST lays down for them. These shnd-
overs. also. will watch the saloons and
scrutinize every house and every business
place for the same purpose.
1t is. in fine. the spying system in its
worst form. volunteer and not directed by
official authority. Nearly twelve hundred
loathsome creatures will be educating them
selves in the art Of poking their noses into
other peoples business.
Vice and crime are bad enough. but they
arc not SO bad as such a systematic hound
ing by horde Of amateur detectives as
PARKHuRsT Is planning. Only despicable
young fellows would engage in the bust
ness. and the longer they pursue it the
more Shiny they will become.
1t ia q contemplate scheme. IN out
rageous project. and tho self-respect Of tho
people should at once rise up to compel the
defled PARKHuRsr to devise some other
and less insulting method OF keeping up
the notoriety which he Is after.

II is n queer craft that DIR. NANsEN will
pilot into the Arctic ice next summer. Only
lOl feet long. her breadth is q third OF her

is plump and rounded. the keel hardly prof ects

curved. In fact, the littlo tub has been made

she may be lifted and not crushed by leo press

ering the North Pole.

Going to Pieces.

The Boston Herald pcrsistcntly shuts Its
eyes to The SUNS demonstration OF the
size of the Mugwump anti-Tnmmany factor
in the politics Of this town. which is math-
ematically measured by tho difference be-
tween tho vote for Mr.. CLEVELAND and the
vote for Mr.. GILRoY for Mayor. "A is now
we'll known. the difference Is just 2O7.
II our esteemed Eastern friend will con-
fine it's attention to the enumeration OF the
Massachusetts Mugwumps field OF inves-
tigation wherein we should not think OF
disputing its authority. and kindly permit
us to attend to the Now York end OF the
census. where we are perfectly at home. tho
cause OF statistical science will benefit
greatly thereby.
BY actual count on election day the num-
Der of New York Anu-Tammany Mug
wumps was 297. These figures. however.
do not represent the present strength Of
the organization.
Deduct the Anti-Tammany Mugwump
who has shaken from his feet the dust OF
New York and cmigratcd to the Maritime
Provinces. where he has already begun to
shine in Dominion politics.
Deduct Disguised Mugwumps who have
taken passage on tho steamship Dubble-
dam for Rotterdam.
Deduct for the Hon. CARL SCHuRz.
who will probably desire not to be reckoned
among the 2D7 as long as he thinks he
stands q chance for Office under . strictly
Democratic organization.
Deduct for safety (three) individual
votes In the editorial Office Of the Ne,o York
Times; votes at present controlled by the
Mugwump leaders. but likely at any mo-
ment to be lost through the sale Of that
newspaper to Col. ELLIOTT T. SHEPARD. or
some other uncompromising Republican Of
the particular species for which Mr.. STILL
MAN. Of the law firm OF BUTLER. ST1LLMAN
g. HUBBARD. once devoutly thanked Provi-
dence for sending around at times to buy
up poor Investments.
Thus 1t appears that the autl-Tammany
Mugwumps Of New York. in spite Of the
bold face they put on when demanding
equal representation in the United States
Senate with tho 65o.0oO Democrats OF the
Empire State. are not holding their
strength. Even the Boston Herald must
recognize the signs Of dislntegration in the
massive organization which Mugwump
| energy and moral courage have built up in
this METROPOLIS,

fully vituperative attack upon the character Of
tho Hon. LAZARUS BAKER. 1t calls the patient
and cheerful little old gentleman "a seeker
after Federal patronage" 1t even calls him
"sly Mr. BAKER"
We need not point out the Infamous false
hood and injustice Of those aspersions. Tho
Hon. LAZARUS BAKER is no seeker after Fed
eral patronage. He is merely waiting with
true dignity and unex ampled patience for an
intimation that Mr. CLEVELAND Is ready to re-
ceive him for such conference as may be nee
essary for tho best interests Of the people. II
he wore brazen. vulgar ofllco seeker he
would boldly ascend the steps Of Number II

Nor is tho Hon. LAZARUS BAKER "sly." II
he were sly he would long ago have crawled in

In dlscourslng upon that interesting typo
graphical indicator. tho hyphen. our learned
contemporary the Tribune. says:
"In conversation or in public speech there 10 NO sign
Of sound or silence which marks the hyphen"
This Is an error. In reading aloud. and IN
all vocal speech. the time-spacs between
hyphenated words is less than between words
that are separate from each other. Take for
example. the compound word "time-space.'
in which tho hyphen marks instancy. and
thus aids tho understanding. Tho mechanical
adjunct here affects tho mind Of tho reader.
Again We quote from the Tribune OF last Sun
day upon punctuation
MANY readers Will perhaps agree that books as they
now issue from the press contain TOO many commas
too many quotation marks too many strokes OF vari
GUS kinds that appeal only to the vision. Let MS hope
that the tendency may set in to make them fewer"
Tho question Of punctuation has been under
debate for ages. and the debate upon 1t has
been especially active since the invention Of
the art OF printing To those distinguished
Venetian printers Of the sixteenth century,
ALDUs MANUTrus and his son IAuLUs. we owe
a debt Of gratitude for the splendid service
they rendered to mankind in setting up an or.
der OF punctuation.

ton" in which these marks are not So much
used In newspapers the tendency nova
days is toward the loose system: but in books.
especially books OF science. law. metaphysics.
and theology. the close system 10 generally
used. Many authors believe In close punctu-
alton. and hold that IL helps the reader TO

| LYLE. CoLEHIDGE. EMEEsoN. BANCROFT. and.
indeed In the great majority OF serious works
In our language. the close system is riCidly fol-
lowed. The writings Of many OF the German
metaphysicians. especially those in which the
styles involved. would be unntelliglbleift they
were not closely punctuated. The comma. the
semicolon. the colon. the full STOP and even
tho EN- dash are very serviceabls to deep
thinkers Gs we'll as to thoughtful readers.
In THE Sun We use punctuation marks Of all
kinds Just rs often us 1t seems to us that they

not belong to the school OF close punctuators or
