4 SIGNIFICANT SILLNCE.

No serious attempt has been made in any
influential quarter to give the last Legislature
of this State a character. The silence OF the
Democratic press is significant 1t Is not un-
inst To interpret it as the graycSt sort of an
indictment OF the Democratic Senate and the
Democratic Assembly OF 1898. Nevertheless
these same Democratic journals will do their
hest we may be sure, to continue the LcgiS-
lat,lre in the hands Of their political friends
Very few Of them, according TO present ap-
pcarances, will bolt "rcgular' Democratic
nominations for that body, although candidates
NAV be presented who contributed according
10 their ability to make the last Legislature u
costly disgrace. There may be exceptions to
this rule of partSanShp at the obvious expense
of the common welfare. Thee is reason 20
believe for example that II Mr.. Shcchan at
tempts to send Shcchan undcrstudies TO Albany
this fail he will be compelled 10 reckon with
ont the leading Democratic organ of Erie
Comfy. BY the same token the leading Dem
ocratic paper Of Kings County may be cN-
pccicd to refuse aid and comfort to Ienominces
for the Senate or the Assembly who made a
mess of it in 1913. There may be other hon
orabe exceptions, although at present there
are no signs of them.
IL will be interesting to note III what terms
the coming Democratic state Convention will
speak of the last legislature it cannot well
ignore it. AID yet without doing violence TO
facts known 10 the great body oI intelligent
voters II will be unable To commend II. Anti
home rule and an increased tax rate are not
things To which Il cOnN cntion, no matter how

pressing question in Brooklyn. Owing to the
winding course which it takes, there is no
street parallel with Fulton into which part
of the travel can be diverted. Livingston-st. IS
parallel for half a mile or so, and there is talk
of building railroad there; but that would
afford no relief below the City Hall, where
the lam is worst If greater number of cars
could be switched off and turned back at the
Bridge it would be a decided gain but the
railway company is not inclined to arrange for
this. in view of the fact that when the new
Bridge station is built it will have its work to
do over once more. Altogether, the trolley
which bids fair to supplant horses entirely in
BROOKLYN has not done much to promote the
comfort of persons dependent upon the surface
railway lines, and has accomplished almost
nothing in the direction Of more rapid transit.
With the inevitable crOWding and crushing on
the Bridge railroad, and the blockading to
which the trolley cars are subjected, the lot of
the resident in Brooklyn in the present year
Sf grace is by no means happy one. When
he can look for substantial relief is question
that no one is able to answer.

One thing is sure-if the Democratic leaders
really intend pass the Silver act repeater, they
must amend the rucs by adopting those devised
by Speaker Reed in 1890. Sooner or later they
must confess that the vicious invectlvc they be-
slowed upon him during the List Congress and
upon the Republicans for supporting hls PROPOSE
tion that organized obstruction is intoerablc, was
wrong, un-Amercan and dangerous to the rule

make that confession.

DEvIN WANTS HIS CHILD,

And Judge johnson Wants to Know
Why He should Not Have Her.
Charles E. Devin has petitioned the Su-
perior Court to give him possession of
his five-year-old daughter, Lulu Maud
Devin.
He recites in his petition that in De-
cember, 1891, decree of divorce was
made divorcing him from his wife, Jose
phine Devin, and awarding her the GUS
tody of the child; that he was not present
in court at the time, and that previous to
that he had entered into a written con-
tract with her that he should have the
{ entire custody and control of the child.
he further alleges that she has no yisi-
BILE means of supporting the child, and
that she is not tit and proper person to
have custody of her, not having proper
affection for her and treating her coolly
and leaving her under the control of
strangers; further, that the decree of the
court gave him the privilege OF visiting
her at all times, but that she is now in
the care of one Mrs. Fredricks, who
abuses him in the presence of the child
when he goes to see her and has for the
past three weeks refused to let him see
her.
Also, that in the decree the court or
dered the mother not to take the child out
OF the jurisdiction OF the court, but that
Mrs. Fredricks told him the last time he
went to see her that her mother had taken
her to Dutch Flat.
He claims that it will be for the best in
terest of the child that he shall have the
custody of her, and therefore prays for
an order to that effect.
Judge johnson issued an order 70 the
mother to produce the child in court on
May 5th and show cause why the father
should not have the custody OF her, as he
aaks.
