1t would be very gratifying to the public
II the courts could construe the act of
November o. 1862, to prohibit the string
ing of any more overhead wires in the
District. There Is no lack Of Congressional
prohibition against such nuisances, as
there Is now a law on the statute books,
the application Of which has not been
questioned-it being the latest legislation
on the subject-but this Is held to be in
operative because 1t fails to provide a PEN
atty for its violation. The omission Is an
other of the many instances Of hasty
poorly prepared legislation. The only other
barrier between the telegraph, telephone
and electric light companies and complete
possession Of the upper regions is this
act Of 1862, which is sufficiently precise
In the matter of penalties, fixing a fine
of from $25 to $50 day for the occupa-
ton of public space for private purposes.
The erection of overhead wires is an ele-
ment Of great danger in any large city,
where the streets are closely built. and the
danger from fire increases with each
square foot q ground occupied by build
ings. To leave the upper regions free from
obstructions so that the fire-fighters may
not he hampered in their work Is but the
merest precaution. such as would be OBJ
served by all property owners without
being compelled by law to conform to the
rules of good sense. 1t is unnecessary to
repeat the many objections to these ugly,
disfguring and dangerous wires. If there
be any virtue In this law of 1862 let it be
applied in all its severity, and then let
there be strong effort made next winter
to obtain from Congress a new law. and
an adequate one. that will not only pro-
hibit under penalty the further stringing
Of overhead wires. but also require the
removal Of those that are now in the air.

PAY THE BILL.

Isn't il about time the State House
land condemnation commission were
paid their bill for services?
The Court has scaled their bill down
to n pittance that will deter these gen.
tlemen of the commission, ut least, from
tackling another job for the State, and
there being nothing now left in
the bills to oppose, it would seem the
quite decent thing to pay the bills and
discharge the commission. We con-
fess we don't just know whose
business it is to pay these bills,
whether the Courts official o. k. is
sufficient to make draft
on the treasury or whether
the Assembly must appropriate the
money. But it is certainly not the
business of the three commissioners to
go dunnng for their fees or to set them
selves to hunting for their delayed pay.
Meanwhile delay in settling this obli-
cation is costing the State money. AS
has already been pointed out, some
time ago, interest on the amount,
whatever it may be, to be paid
the former owners of the con-
demned land has now been running
some seven months. Assuming that the
condemnation commission allow $685.
600, or one-half the claims, this interest
is running on at the rate of about $50 a
day. Since the day that the Court fixed
the price to be paid the com
mission for their services, this interest
has been piling up unnecessarily,
and if the land is not shortly paid for
the interest Will eat big hole out of the
$4,000 which the judgment of the
Court saved TO the State when it
shaved down the claims of the commits
sion.
Somebody, evidently, ought to do
something.

CLEMENCY TO REBELS.

The nagging of the government OF the
Republic of Hawaii by the President
and Secretary of State of the United
States is again demonstrated TO have
been as unwarranted as it was i'm
pudent. Secretary GRESHAM sent a
communication through Minister WILLIS
in the interests of the Hawaiian rebels
that contained an ill-concealed threat,
and the cuckoo press joined in a great
hue and cry about holding the govern
ment in check and not allowing
it 10 proceed with its assumed determine
ton to exterminate the rebels. News
papers and men generally who were
possessed OF n measure Of horse
sense recognized that the Gov
ernment Of Hawaii was gov
ernment of American citizens and
they looked for no barbarous slaughter
of captives and no action whatever that
would be repugnant to civilization.
Confidence in the good sense and human
ity of the Hawaiian government was
strong among the American people.
Now it appears that the Hawaiian
government has agaih disarmed the
unfounded fears and suspicious and
the general alarm that impelled
the hysterical GRESHAM to again
meddle in Hawaiian affairs. A
goodly number of the convicted
rebels have been released from
arrest on parole to leave the country.
One prisoner has been sentenced TO a
years imprisonment aud fined and we
read that ION account of i'll health the
hard labor feature of the sentence is
omitted" Five years Imprisonment
and fine is the punishment meted out
to man who was active enough in the
rebellion as to undertake the capture of
the telephone station.
Evidently the government of Hawaii
is conducting this delicate business with
that measure of judgment and wisdom
which is 10 be expec ed from the
kind of men who are running the
government-enough sight more judg-
ment and wisdom it may be
said, than the CLEVELAND admiDistra-
tion has displayed in its treatment Of
our fellow citizens in the island Re-
public.
