Annoyed on Centre street.

To the Editor:
I wish to call attention to a nuisance that ex-
ista at the corner OF Centre and Chambers streets.
| frequently have occasion to pass up Centre street
towards the Post-ohice about II p. NJ. and | am
nearly always annoyed by women. who seem to
make their headquarters around the pole and in
the shade OF the electric light lamp at the south
west corner OF Centre and Chambers streets. Lone
ly pedestrians who may seem likely prey passing
this way after . or s.3O p. N. meet with 4 storm
of entrenties. solicitations or vulgar remarks.
The place No. Il Centre street Is pointed out
as being a desirable place TO pstronize. The side
walk from the commencement OF Centre street
towards Chambers street is pstrolled by the vul-
lures. Two policemen sometimes meet under the
awning Of the saloon opposite Engine House No.
:, yet on such occasions these birds OF prey do
not take to night, How Is It! Do the police not
know: Trusting that this may be Of benent In
obtaining a remedy to such a disgrace.

RIGHTING A WRONG.

The Democratic fractional fight In Buff
falo would have very little interest for
people outside that city but for the fact
that Lieut.-Gov. Sheehan, the lead OF
one of the factions. has assumed a die
tatorship over the State Democracy and
has used his official position to promote
his personal ends against the public in
terests.
When Mr.. Sheehan sneaked through
the Legislature bills which reversed the
decision Of the voters of Buffalo in their
municipal election. violated the Demo-
cratic principle of home rule and seized
control of the police directly denied him
by the electors. he made not only the
citizens OF Erie County but the people
of the whole State his opponents.
R~etribution came upon him from his
own city and county last November
when every candidate OF his faction run
ming for office was defeated nj the ballot
box. His punishment by the people OF
the State was commenced last week by
the passage in the Assembly of bills
repeating all the shameless partisan laws
he secured by undue means a year ago,
These bill SHOULD not meet any oh
struction In the senate. The more
prompt the rebuke the safer the State
will be against ~Sheehanism in the future

DOING SOMETHING FOR THEMSELVES.

The Socialist meeting at the Windsor
Theatre on the Bowery last night was
attended by over a thousand people.
and the speakers were rather violent
In their utterances. Think" said one
OF them, 'of eighty thousand working
people. desperate with hunger and fran
tic with suffering. and the State doing
nothing. II something Is not immedi-
ately don for the unemployed. they will
do something for themselves"
The State is the people, and the peo-
pie are doing very much for the unein-
ployed ~workingmen of the city and the
w~orkingmen are doing much for them
selves. Never was b~enevolence more ac-
tive and nobler than 1t Is at this time,
and the authorities, both of the state
and the city. are seeking to hasten on
those public works that will give en-
ployment to the idle. Never have the
honest toilers shown more strlkingly
that they are deserving Of the sympathy
and aid of their fellow-men thar during
this Winter Of suffering. by their patient
endurance Inc their respect for law and
order.
The agitators who seek to incite them
to lawlessness and violence are their
worst enemies. They exaggerate the
evils. bad enough without exaggeration,
and II they could find men mad enough
to back up their incendiary teachings by
acts they would delay the relief now
happily near at hand. With the renewal
of confidence will come restored prosper.
fty. and the workingmen OF New York
will find that they w lone much for
themselves by their patient endurance.

regard Of the destructive teachings OF

Height OF wOmnn's Ambition.

A vast deal of nonsense is talked and
written about woman's ambition, and
the dizzy heights to which her mission
may lead. To the multitude of men self
support is the pane of contentment, and
the multitude of women will hardly
reach a higher plane. Women who are
self-sustairing are legion. while tho
