Chicago appears to have got rid of the in
cubus of miserable weather, which was such
. blight upon the Fair in its opening days and
seriously retarded the work of preparation.
This work is now so far advanced that in a
week or ten days-about June 1.-The Fair WILL
it is believed, be practically complete. All
things considered June will doubtless be one
of the most desirable months in which to visit
Chicago. The greatest crowds may be looked
for in July and August, when, of course, there
will be the hottest weather, and September till
lack the freshness of June. Those who are
not limited to time will do well to go to the
Fair as soon as possible, or else postpone going
until the heat of SUMMER is past.

THE BOARD OF TRADE

Both the retiring and incoming presi-
dents of the Board of Trade yesterday
in their addresses touched upon the
subject of the apathy of the organiza-
tion and its neglect Of public interests of
the city and state.
For years past the burden of the
speeches of newly-elected and retiring
presidents has been this apathy, and
now in the twenty-fifth year of its ex.
istence Mr.. Pierce reiterates the hone
that the members twill be more ac-
tive"
There is certainly no reason why they
should not fulfill the hope. and every
reason why they should.
The Providence Board of Trade has
nearly five hundred members. Com.
bined they represent three-fourths of the
capital of the city and state, and an
equal proportion of those who may be
called the most successful business men
of the community They are among
the most shrewd and energetic of New
England's merchants. They constitute
the brains that has given our state and
city prominence in manufacturing.
Despite these facts the Board of Trade
has been apathetic regarding the great
public questions Of the day.
In his inaugural last year President
George referred to many questions of
pressing local value. Terminal facili-
ties, harbor facilities and other munic-
ipal topics were urgently called to the
notice Of the members, and their coop
Grafton asked 20 further the needs of
the city.
The year has passed and the retiring
president is compelled 20 refer 20 his
term of Office rs entirely unevent-
full Though losing thousands Of dol.

The State League for Good Roads
that was organized yesterday ought to
be productive Of excellent results.
The reformation of the prevailing
methods of dealing with road-making
and maintenance must be a matter of
growth aud education. The first thing
to do is TO convince the people, es-
pecially those who struggle to maintain
poor roads in the rural districts. that
the money they expend is largely
wasted, and get them to agree to bet
ter system.
The work of the state league must.
for some time at least, be chiefly edu-
cative. Legislation should not be at
tempted until the public sentiment JUS
tifies it, and doubtless will not.
This newly-organized society to pro-
mote the public good may do a very
great work, and it is apparently so con-
stituted as to Justify the hope that it
will

ing the price of their stupidity.
The New York Herald, for example
gets somewhat excited because Mr. Ed.
Murphy is to be given seat in the
United States Senate as reward for
services rendered last fall. 1t says that
"the war is now on" and intimates that
some very dire "fate awaits the Hill
Tammany dictatorship"
1t is not quite clear what the ground
for complaint by these newspapers is.
They knew last fall that it was for Tam
many they were fighting. They knew
that Mr.. Cleveland had been bagged by
Tammany. Certainly they knew Tam
many and what Tammany would do
with victory If 1t was won.
The election Of Ed. Murphy to the
Senate seems not only the most logical
result of the election, but the only logi-
cal result. Nobody has a right to be in
the least disappointed; least of all those
papers in New York that have for years
fought and constantly exposed Tam
many and its methods.

The caucus nomination OF Edward
Murphy, Jr., for United States Senator
from New York, emphasizes fact
in American politics which the
purist as well as the independent will
do well to face at once.
The fact is that careful and persist
ent party work deserves and will nearly
always get its reward.
Despite Mr.. Cleveland's opposition in
behalf of alleged party purity and dig
nifty, Murphy is almost unanimously
nominated. To the question why this
was done one of the leaders in the assem-
bly, replied that sin the fullness of our
victory we refuse to sacrifice our leaders
on the altar of our devotion to De-
mocracy."
This is the true doctrine of the Demo-
cratic success. 1t is an unavoidable
fact that must continue so long as
parties continue TO exist.
Much as we might desire that all Of
ficials should be selected on the basis of
merit alone, without regard to past ser.
vices, that desire is impractical at pres
ent. There is vast deal of party work
which must be done, and must be paid
for. If we are not willing to do it our
selves, others less honest and honorable
will do 1t, and name their own price.
Edward Murphy, Jr., represents the
reward in politics of the man who places
party success above all else. The victory
which he has personally won during the
past three years, contrasted with the
decline of the indepen.
dent faction in politics, is significant
evidence that the millennium has not
yet come and that if we are to place
parties on higher plane, those who be-
ieve in elevating public office must de-
scend to the present level of politics and
light. for a time at least, the present
leaders with better than
heir own weapons.

GREEN ERUII.

The more or less entertaining and
enterprising correspondents of the Bos-
ton papers have pretty nearly settled
the whole political business of the Re-
publican partyin this state. and there
seems to be very little to be done now
but to carry out their well-laid plans.
1t probably has not occurred to them
that the Republican party will care to
exhibit much interest in the matter, and
possibly upset their plans.
We should not in the least wonder if
something of that nature might happen.
But as the Republican party is not
yet worrying much about the spring
campaign, it occurs to us that it is too
early to worry about the gentlemen to
evolve Providence news for the Boston
papers. They are having their fun
now. We are quite willing to wait to
pluck political exclusive information
until that at present unreasonable fruit
shows some signs Of ripening upon the
tree.
