The indignation that the Legislature should
not have repealed the outrageous Tobn Dressed
Stone law in its entirety is tempered only Il
littleSby the fact that paving-stones are exempt
ell from its provisions by bill which has been
passed in the Assembly. This proposed modlll-
cation of the demagogic statute has, however,
led to the Introduction of measure for the
expenditure of S3,OOOO00 in paving New-iork
City streets. Under the present administration
this sum will be spent only as needed. and then
In an economical way. But in the mean time,
other important public Improvements are ham
pered by the absurd law. The building Of an
art museum in Brooklyn hinges partly on the
repeal of the Tobin monstroslty, and in this
city the Rapid Transit Commissioners fear TO
begin their great work while the price Of stone
remains thus artincially high. 1t isn't too late
for the Legislature TO go Il long step further
and to wipe the Tobin law from the statute
books entirely.
