H0RSELESS CARRIAGES,
The "Automobile" Not a Success in
New York.

SNAhS''ODlS iNON d ouSIcSS vi
New York.
The fixing of maximum rate at
which horseless carriages may travel
on English roads denotes that these
vehicles have now acquired in Eng
land q vogue which they give nc
promise of gaining here in the inn
mediate future. One of the first ex-
periments in the USE of these ma
chimes was made in New York last
summer, says the Sun, by big de-
partment store, and thars was q
promise that the delivery wagons of
this type would be extensively used
in case the experiment proved sue
cessful. Bayo q peculiarly nau
seating smell of oil and a jerky mo-
ton which woull hav, ultimately
shattered the nervous system of any
driver, the trial vehicle proved salts
factory enough. The machine was
seen on the streets for only q short
time, and now year later not more
than three or four of the vehicles are
to be met with. New York has
steadfastly refused to become ex-
cited over the horseless carriage,
Notwithstanding that one of the
drawbacks to the popularity was re-
moved when somebody substituted
for its first clumsy designation the
name automobile. New York's
streets are little adapted to the ma
chimes, and this and the public's alb
sorption in the bicycle are supposed
to explain the lack Of concern shown
in the newer method of travelling.
Occasionally bicycle operated by
steam may be seen laboriously roll
ing up Fifth avenue, as heavy and
cumbersome machine as human in
genuity ever devised. There are,
however, already predictions that
the horseless carriage will have as
important an effect on the business
OF England as the bicycle, and a
number OF important manufacturing
firms have made elaborate prepare
tons for their manufacture on q
large scale. Several factories have
been established in this country,
but whatever their ultimate fate
may be, horseless carriages have not
yet appeared in any numbers on our
streets. One of their disadvantages
as pleasure vehicles is believed to lie
in the difficulty with which the pas
sengers have to contend in adjust
ing their faces into an expression
less self-conscious and embarrassed
than the persons photographed in
these vehicles usually wear. Gen
orally they look ineffably sheepish,
or make an ineffective stagger at ap-
pearing entirely unconcerned, which
is even less dignified. Perhaps the
habit of riding regularly in one of
the vehicles removes this difficulty,
but the carriages will never be
popular In Central park until this
feature has been satisfactorily set

POLITICAL PRODIGALs.

One of our correspondents has sug-
gested that one of the happy signs OF
the times is the manner in which many
neoDIe who have heretofore held alool
from ANYTHING connected with the GOV
eminent or politics are constantly
changing their tactics and endeavorlng
to cooperate with the officials OF the
country. This influx of new material
has perhaps been more noticeable In
the military companies, where are now
men who at one time were prepared TO
fight or do anything to upset affairs.
In the American League, as well, new
faces and new leaders appear. The
Government looks upon this movement
with favor and it is to be hoped that
the anticipation of barriers being grad
uaIIy broken down will be fully real
lied.
Though the Government held affairs
down with a strong hand when forced
to protect the country, the officials have
shown themselves quite ready to over
look the differences of the past and al

the past to turn back and come into the
fold on the same footing with those

AUSTRALIAN STEAMER SERVICE.

The efforts of the Canadian and Aus
tralian line to obtain a subsidy from
New Zealand have been persistent il
nothing more. The recent advances
according to dispatches have not met
with particular favor because the APP
preaching elections give the politicians
something else to think about.
The New Zealand Herald maintains
that the colony already has one good
Pacific mail service and that ought tC
be sufficient considering the condition
of the public treasury. It is suggested
that the Vancouver people go tC
Queensland for a subsidy. Speaking
of New Zealand's requirements the
Herald says: 1--WE feel that we do not
need it ourselves and cannot afford it
which will make us all the less reluc-
benefit OF q sister colony. Besides, We
could hardly make even political CAPT
tai of it, which is a matter of some
consideration just now when we are
under the shadow of the coming cleo
tions. In our existing service by San
Francisco we have a service that has
done the work of the colony for long
term of years, and with promtitude
and regularity in the delivery of the
mails at both ends which should not,
and we believe will not, be lightly ig-
nored in the colony. If any changes are
contemplated in our over-Paciffc ser
vice. it is in accordance with fair play
as well as ordinary business that the
offer or request should be proffered to
the company that has served us we'll
for a generation past
So far as Hawaii is concerned it is
to be hoped that one or both OF the
Australian lines will obtain sufficient
subsidy from some source to warrant
putting on larger and more modern
steamers. At present the Canadian
line is under the disadvantage of hav-
ing only two steamers, and accidents
cause unavoidable delays. 1t seems
reasonable to expect that the traffic be
tween Canada, the United States and
Australia will be sufficient to main
tain two lines as well equipped as the
Oriental steamship lines. Larger
steamers will undoubtedly attract more
tourist travel on both the Vancouver
and San Francisco routes.

One of the big conventions for 1887
is promised San Francisco-the Annual
Christian Endeavor gathering. This
ought 10 be an encouraging sign to the
people of the West. As a rule the
common people of today in the eastern
United States know little or nothing
about the West. Men who have ira
yeled in Europe know less about the
States west of the Mississippi than they
do of England and France. These big
conventions will set people to wander
ing over their own country as nothing
else will. Furthermore the Christian
Endeavors are young people and trip
across their own country will be good
education for them.

posed, but this is very seldom the case.
The Government of Hawaii is not
conducted on the party line idea; that
is. the party lines of the "ins" are not
so strictly drawn as to raise an insur-
mountabIe barrier against the outs.
The prodigal son is given his place at
the political table if he will leave the
husks of dissension and come back and
take it. The Government is always in
terested in its prodigals and bears them
no i'll will; it takes them al their word
and is willing to continue as if nothing
had happened. Meanwhile, the oppo-
sition press keeps up a continual howl
and asserts that the country is on the
verge of revolution and every sort of
calamity imaginable. AS the former
enemies have the appearance Of now
being fast and loyal friends. it would
seem that the calamity howl of the op-
position is appreciated by only a select
few. We hope and trust that this is
true and that the Government in MAX
ing new friends readily is not losing the
old ones

during one period of twenty days there

1885 cases of yellow fever, and that during
the same period there were 497 deaths

the frightful mortality from yellow fever
