No Prospect Of War.

There are no indications that the cars
death will have any effect upon the re-
lations Of the countries of Europe. For sew
eral weeks before his death the opinion
was freely expressed in European capitals
that his death would be quickly followed
by war. The basis of this opinion was
probably the cars well known inclina-
ton towards peace. He had witnessed
war in its worst forms. and was well
acquainted with it's horrors.
There is not now any cause for agrees
sive action on the part of any one of the
European powers. and it is hardly prob
able that any one of them will seek TO
disturb the peace of Europe until it is
pretty well understood what sort of a
ruler Nicholas IL will be- Comparatively
little is known of the character of the
new czar. and it will be quite awhile be-
fore much is known. 1t will take him some
time to adjust himself TO his new situa-
ton, and get a comprehensive under
standing of his duties. 1t Is impossible
certainty the sort of man into which he
viii develop under the pressure of the
vast responsibilities that rest upon him.
It is not known. however, that he is am
bilious to enlarge his empire, or that he
has desire to exert an undue influence in
the affairs of Europe.
If his character up to this time affords
any indication of what his policy will be
it is pretty safe to assume that he will de-
vote himself to the upbuildIng of his coun-
try, and to the promotion of the welfare
of his people. There is not as much specu-
lation now in the European press as to
whether or not war will follow the cars
death as there was before the cars i'll
ness became serious. 1t is quite a safe
conclusion, therefore. that there is no i'm
mediate danger of the disturbance of the
peace of Europe.

Hill,s Prospects d sueeess.

The reports as to the outcome Of the
political contest in New York are so con-
hicting that no prediction relative to the
result is worth much. The democratic
Z leaders express confidence in Senator
Hnrs success. They declare that the en-
thusiasm he has aroused outside Of New
York city is so great that he win be elected
/ even II his majority in New York city is
much below what the democratic ticket
usually receives.
on the other hand, the republican man
ayers are claiming an extraordinary ma
iority for Mr. Morton. They declare that
he viii be elected by 100, 300 majority. A
claim Of that sort ought not, and probably
does not. command much attention. There
is nothing to indicate that II Senator Hin
should be defeated it would be by tidal
wave majority.
There is no doubt that Senator Hill is
making a most remarkable campaign, and
that he is gaining additional support every
day. But powerful influences are arrayei
against him. The independent democratic
ticket will take from him many thousands
of votes and the disclosures concerning
the rottenness of Tammanys rule in New
York city. though he is in no respect re-
sponsible for Tammany's wrong doing
viii lessen his chances for success.
The main object in showing up Tam
many's corruption at this particular time
is to assist the anu-Tammany municipal
ticket but while the testimony before the
Lexow committee is hurting the Tammany
municipal candidate it is also hurting
Senator Hill, because he is looked upon as
Tammanys candidate for governor. In
fact. all the anti-Hn elements are saying
that Tammany cannot be crushed
and thoroughly defeated if Senator
Hill IS elected This is said Of course to
turn against Senator Hill the hostility
to Tammany.
Still, Senator Hill has an excellent
chance of winning If he should win,
one Of the most notable triumphs in the
history of politics of this country would
be his.
What adds special interest to the New
York campaign is the belief that man.
have that II Mir. Morton wins he will be
the presidential nominee Of his party in
1895, and that if Senator Hin is successful
he viii be rewarded by the presidential
nomination of his party. There is, OF
course, something in this. Many things
will happen before the campaign of 1896
however, and it is just as likely as not
that no one of the next presidential can
didates will be New Yorker whatever
may be the outcome of the present cam
paign In New York.

choosing Judicial omeers.

The Morning News has said many times
that the way judicial officers are chosen
in this state is Lad one. and IL now
seems to be the very general opinion that
it is. The best men, the men who ough.
to be elected judges and solicitors gen
eral. stand very little chance of being
chosen on their merits. If they are good
canvassers for votes and can help other
applicants for office they may. succeed in
getting what they want. Otherwise
they are likely 10 be given very little
consideration.
There are. of course, objections to all
the methods that have been tried for
choosing judicial officers, but the method
in this state is probably the most objec-
tionable Of all of them. It would be
very good method if legislators would act
conscientiously and be guided by high
sense Of duty, but IT is too much to ex-
poet they would do that They have
friends whom they will help regardless
of the question Of whether or not these
friends are 1T for the places they seek.
About the way the thing is done is this:
Almost every member of the legislature
has close personal friend to whom he
is under obligations, and whom he wants
to oblige. To get this friend into an office
he enters into an agreement with other
members by which he promises TO vote
for their candidates provided they will
vote for his. In many cases old politi-
cal debts are paid in this way and many
unfit men are elected TO the responsible
office of judge or solicitor.
There are objections to choosing the jul
dicial officers by popular vote, but we
feel certain that more acceptable and
better qualified men would be chosen
in that way than is the case under the
existing system. It might be given a trial.
If it did not prove satisfactory it would
not be impossible to go back to the old
method.

A Wall street lawyer named James NJ
German has . rather novel scheme for
making a good big fee. The Trinity Cor
poration has sold St. Johns churchyard
situated at the corner of Hudson and lie
roy streets, to the city of New York for
S250.OC0. The purpose of the city is to turn
the old cemetery into a public park
Lawyer German holds that those who
bought the burial lots in the old cemetery
bought them for all time, and that their
heirs now own them-that the Trinity Cor
poration having sold them once cannot
sell them again. and that whatever money
New York city pays for the old cemetery
must go to the heirs of those who orig
inauy purchased and paid for the lots.
The Trinity Corporation objects, of
course, to this view Of the matter but it
looks as II Lawyer German had good
case provided he can find clients and prove
title. The outlook is for an interesting
law suit as Trinity Corporation will not
give up the s25O.OOO without legal fight.

legislature to waste more time on the

settle It is to be hoped, therefore, that
the legislators win buckle down to their
