CLEvELAND's CABINET.

President-elect Cleveland seems to be
constructing a cabinet that will be re-
markable for the absence from il of men
OF weight, in national or party affairs.
III it is to be headed by Judge
| Gresham, as is now understood there
Will be distinct falling-off from the
standard that has been maintained
through all administrations since the
war, and distinct lowering of the
standard established by Mr.. Cleveland
himself IN his former term. Judge
Gresham was once one of the leading
Republicans in the country, and he had
very strong following in the Republi-
can convention in 1888. Since then he
has at various times plainly shown that
he was seriously disappointed, and he
has allowed his disappointment to drift
him into the Democratic party. He
has changed his political belief at a time
when there was no reasonable excuse
for so doing open TO man in his posi-
ton. IL is impossible TO believe that
conviction is at the bottom of his course.
The other men mentioned for cabinet |
positions are all below the best that the |
party affords in the way of ability.
Carlisle is able but weak Lamont is a
shrewd business man, but has not de-
monstrated that he is in any sense a
statesman; Bissell is New York state
lawyer who would have remained al
most entirely unknown had he not hap
pened to be Mr.. Clevelands law partner.
The cabinet timber selected by Mr..
Cleveland thus far is distinctly second
class.

ELECTRIC ROADS.

In connection with the prospective
equipment of the Union railroad with
electricity, an enterprise in Jersey City
of similar kind offers an interesting
comparison.
The company intends to establish an
electric road connecting Jersey City,
Newark, Elizabeth, Plainfeld, Passaic,
Paterson, Bloomfield and the Oranges.
The total population reached by the
roads is about 100000, and it is ex-
pected that it will require $50 miles of
road. 1t is intended with the main
lines of the system to compete with the
steam railroads for suburban travel.
BY extending the system of Provi
dence to Bristol, Pawtuxet valley and
Valley Falls, the Union Railroad Com
pany could reach population of $50,
600, with less than sixty miles of track.
If the projected improvements in
Jersey city are promising those of Provi-
dence are more so.

TOO MUCH POLITICS.

No other excuse than that of the SUM-
posed political necessities of the case
can be offered for the unseemly haste
which characterizes the governments
action toward Hawaii. States are not
made in week, but the politicians in
Washington are so anxious to seize a
new one that they are stopping to con-
slider nothing
Nothing is to be lost by tempering
politics with judicious consideration of
existing conditions.
The overtures for annexation have
come solely from the people of the
islands, and their action grew out of no
previous advance of ours, but simply as
supposed necessary measure of pro-
lection. IL is question of business
only, and one which offers as little
political agrandizement as would the
passage of the regular appropriation
bill. Yet the apparent anxiety of the
Republicans to settle the issue at
once is as great as was the anxiety 70
settle the question Of our northern
boundary or the Missouri compromise.
The United States secured Alaska bv
purchase few years ago, but so far as
we remember its purchase has never
been used or even thought of as politi.
cal argument. Any action in regard 10
Hawaii will be of equally small political
value.
II is true that the commerce Of
Hawaii is almost exclusively with the
United States. The imports in 1890
amounted 10 50, 300, 900, of which 81, 200
600 were American. The exports were
$4,000, 900, practically all to the United
States but its income for that year
only exceeded it's expenditures by S12.-
600, and while in 1889 the expenditures
were only Sl,400,0O0 in 1890 they were
S3,2OO,OOO, an increase of 12j per cent i'm
one year. Its population is about 90. 900.
OF which only 400 own real estate and
only 40 per cent are able to read and
write. That population is made up of

A PROVIDENCE DIRECTOR.

Much of the opposition in Massachu-
setts TO the lease of the Old Colony by
the Consolidated road has been over
come by fact that is not only valid TO
the eastern stockholders but should
teach lesson to local capitalists. 1t is
that under the new arrangement not
only are some of the Old Colony officers
retained but its large stockholders will
become important factors in the new
board of directors which will manage
the whole system.
1t becomes most pertinent question
to ask, Why is not Providence repre-
sented on the board of directors? New
Haven with less than 81, 600 inhabitants
and of much less importance as a source
OF transportation has representatives on
the board who will care for her interests
in every step that may be taken.
Providence has nothing to influence
the management but its city council.
The owners of the road have no interests
here, and it is only TO be expected that
'Hio wy VIII Dc SUCH ldClllUleS
as its business imperatively demands.
1t is unnecessary to indulge in reminis.
cences Of the time when five railroads
were owned and practically managed in
this city. The results of that local man.
agement have not been so noteworthy
as to be remembered to the disparage-
ment Of the present managers. From
any point of view, the look backward
can cause little regret We have only
to aim at the best obtainable results and
plan together for their accomplishment.
The ownership even in a proportion
ate ratio to our interests in the new |
consolidated roads is quite out of the
question. Our capitalists prefer other
securities to local railroad stocks. Small
as is our holding of the stocks there is
enough owned here, and busi-
ness represented, to warrant at least
one member of the board of directors
being chosen from among Providence
citizens

GREEK CHURCH IN RUSSIA.
Mrs. Edmund Noble of Boston speaks at
the He'll Street Chapel


the Bell Street Chapel
Mrs. Edmund Noble delivered an ad-
dress yesterday afternoon at Bell Street
Chapel on "The Greek Church and Rus
sian Civilization" Mrs. Noble is a Rus
sian woman now living in Boston, and
she lectures I'm her native costume, which
consists OF loosely fitting gown of several
colors. The chaple was filled with an
audience which repr .sented ali classes of
society. as Mrs. Noble has been heard n
this city previously, aud her simple I'M an
ners and peculiar Slavonic accent have
won her many friends.
Mrs Noble began with graphic des-
cription OF the introduction of the Greek
Church into Russia when at the insti-
Ratio OF the priests Of the new religion
the people were induced TO throw their
heathen gods into the river Neva to prove
whether they could save themselves or
not. and when IL was found that they
were powerless the people hocked TO the
standard of the Creek Church and were
baptised by thousands, though they did
not know what the ceremony meant
From that time whicn was away back in
the middle ages, the Creek Church game
power till finally IL was made the st ate
religion with the Car at its head
Comment ng on the results of the com.
ing OF the new religion the speaker said
that there could be no doubt that the
civilization of the Slavonic race has been
aided aud advanced by tho advent of the
Greek Church. In many res poets the re-
ligion Is inadequate for the needs of all
the people though it has rescued them
from barbarity and from almost a savage
state.
part of the address was devoted to n
description of church life in Russia, and
Mr.. Noble said that oneithing that makes
church life in this country 50 much more
attractive than in Russia is the various
social devices used by the churches of
TINS country to bring pastors and people
together, which is entirely lacking in
Russia.
Mrs. Noble said that she was an Amer
lean In everything but birth, having
married an American and living In
American style in Boston. She saws she
