ARE TIE STREETS To BE CLEANED!

Il was impossible for the Street Cleaning
Department to make any satisfactory answer
TO the charges presented to the Mayor by the
City Club Every citizen knows that this de-
partment has failed to carry out the law in re-
gard to the block system and has failed to Keep
the streets clean. No one knows this better
than Mayor Gilroy himself, and it is evident
that change in the department is sorcly
needed. Nothing was submitted to the Mayor
in the hearing yesterday which could break
the force of the overwhelming proofs of incfli-
cheney and of the violation of the law which
are afforded by the Obvious facts. II is mat
ter of general observation and OF common
knowledge that the present management OF the
Street Cleaning Department has not succeeded
in cleaning the streets and in keeping them
clean, and it has failed to put in effect the
provisions of the law In fact this manage
ment has never made any intelligent, earnest
effort to carry out the provisions OF the law in
good faith.
But no matter how we'll informed Mayor
Gilroy may be as to the complete collapse of
the Street Cleaning Department during the
winter and as to its deplorablc failure to do It's
plain duty. intelligent people have little hope
of any relief from the Mayor. There can be
no question Of the imperative necessity Of a
thorough going revolution in the methods and
management OF the department. The cnor-
nous Accommodations of filth which were suffered
to lie undisturbcd for months in the winter
and early spring were the strongest witnesses
of the ineiiicency of the department and of
the absolute need OF a change The evidence
of such witnesses cannot be set aside, and it
cannot be answered. But Mayor Gilroy will
make no change unless Mr. Croker gives the
order If Mr.. Croker does not give the order
the people Of NewIork may ere long be com
PEELED to decide whether they desire 10 keep
Mr. Croker in power and invite an epidemic, or
whether they prefer to cast out Mr. Croker and
protect themselves from pcstilcnce. III the
Street Cleaning Department remains under its
present management the plague threatens our
homes. Which do the people of New-York
prefer? Croker and cholera? Or health and
good government?

STEP THAT rs NOT LAWFCL.

II is stated by some Democratic journals that
the Administration, in order to arrest the ontgo
of gold. will refuse to redeem new Treasury
notes except in silver dollars 1t is to be feared
that this would prove a grave mistake, as re-
spects its practical consequences AS the new
Treasury notes have thus far been freely re-
deemed in gold, refusal to pay out gold for
them would have strong tendency to create
alarm, and consequently to prompt Withdrawals
of gold by those who could get it. Nor will
the business world overlook the fact that the
legal-tender notes, according to the language
of the laws authorizing them, are redeemable
in "coin, as well as the new Treasury notes,
and if necessity compels the Government 10
use its discretion as to payment of silver coins
in one case, men may infer that it will soon
do the same in the other case. While it is al
ways difficult to foresee the immediate effects
of such STEP it is at least quite likely that it
would prevent further payments of gold to the
Treasury or deposits of gold in the Treasury,
and would largely increase Withdrawals OF geld
by presentation of legal-tender notes for re-
dempton
A grave objection to the proposed course is
that it would be contrary to the express re-
quirements of the law. The act authorizing
the new Treasury notes. the Silver act of 1890.
declared it to be the intent to maintain the
parity of gold and silver coins and notes. 1t
has been held by Republican officials, with the
hearty approval of the business world. that this
provision of the law deprives the Treasury Of
discretionary power as to payment Of gold or
silver for either kind Of Treasury notes pre-
sented for redemption. because refusal to pay
gold would establish discrimination between
the two kinds of coin. Undoubtedly President
Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle, before taking
any step so important. will take the opinion
of the law adviser of the Administration re-
garding the import and force of this provision
of the act of 1890, and it seems hardly pos
sible that they will be advised that any dis
elimination between gold and silver coin or
notes is permitted.
1t needs no legal opinion to make it clear that
refusal to pay gold. where gold has been paid
and is still demanded, would be discrimination
of tho most effective sort against silver coin,
and against the notes to be redeemed in silver
coin only. 1t would be an official declaration
by the United States Government that it no
longer could or would maintain the parity of
gold and silver in use. Since it cannot be sup
posed that the Administration assumes the right
to disobey the act of 1890. however much it
may desire to have part of that act repealed,
the only possible conclusion would be that the
Government had found itself unable TO main
tain the parity of the two kinds of money, and
therefore was compelled under the stress OF

THE LEAGUE To MEET.

Tho Republican National League meets on
MAY 10 at Louisville. A great and interesting
assembly is anticipated. Chairman Carter of
the National Committee has summoned that
body, the highest organization of the party, to
meet mt the same time and place, and there will
be brought together the men most conspicuous
in party work and public service from every
State in the Union II has been suggested that
q more suitable occasion for the League Con-
ycntion might have been found later in the
year, but that matter was determined by the
Buffalo Convention, and not subject to
review on the part of those who have issued the
call for the Louisville meeting. 1t is to be
horne in mind, too, that it takes time for the
results of such an assembly to be carried all over
the country and to bring forth the fruit in
party work prior to the fall elections which
they are intended to secure. One thing is GER
tain-thc Republican party cannot be hurt by
too much discussion. Ours is not the party that
suffers by having its plans and purposes ana
lived and explained, or by putting its leaders
forward in full view OF the people.
The general officers OF the League arc max
ing great efforts to insure the success OF the
convention. These efforts should be sustained
by the League membership in every State. 1t
should be full convention NO element OF tho
party and no part of the country should fail
Of representation The influences that will
nrocccd from the acts and deliberations of the
convention can be made most powerful in aid
of Republican success wherever there is state
election next fall and every resource should
be strained to render them commanding.

1t is too much TO expect Of this inefficient and
corrupt Legislature that it will seriously address
itself ut this late hour of the session to tn. bill
which provides for the maintenance OF State Gle
vators at Buffalo. But it is evident from what
the canal boatmcn are saying that they are
strong in the opinion that the present elevator
charges to which they are subjected Mt that port
are extortionate. They find in these charges the
explanation Of the decline in grain shipments. 1t
is evident that reform of some sort in this matter
Is necessary.

Mayor Bishop, Of Buffalo, played one of his
trump cards yesterday. On charge OF NAL
feasance he removed from office James llanra-
han, the President of the Common Council one
of the two officials authorized by the notorious
Sneak bill to name Police Commissioners.
IIanrahan will have the privilege later of show
ing why his removal should not be permanent.
The indignation in Buffalo over Sheehan's re-
cent performance is intense and the people are
with the Mayor in the fight he is making Thus
far the advantage is wholly with the opponents
of Sheehan and his gang, who have done so
much to bring the city into disrepute.
