THREE BILLS AND A LAWSUIT.

There Is now in existence at Albany bill
recurring the managers Of the elevated railroads
in this city to provide their cars with proper
lights 1t was passed almost unanimously by
both houses Of the Legislature, and Is now In
the hands of the Governor. 1t Is n good bill, and
ought to become law without delay, as every
body knows who ever has occasion to ride on
the elevated roads at night With characteristic
niygardliness and contempt for public opinion
and the public welfare, the elevated railroad
people are doing their utmost to defeat 1t. Iney
fought It desperately In the Legislature, and
now their lobby agents are trying to ger II caiieu
back from the Governors hands.
In the Appellate Division OF the Supreme
Court n suit to compel the elevated railroad
companies of Brooklyn to pay their taxes IS ap-
preaching It's end The general expectation Is
that 1t will be decided in favor Of the city, and
that the companies will either have to pay up
promptly or have their property sold to satisfy
the cIty's Just and legal claims. TO avert such
n contingency the companies have resorted to
a common trick. They have had introduced at
Albany n bill intended to nullify the expected
action OF the court, and have tried to get 1t
"sneaked through" In this they will doubtless
fail The character and purpose Of their little
joker have been exposed, anu there Is shi"ii
chance Of its ever becoming law.
simultaneously with these third bill Is being
pushed toward enactment ut Albany by the
united lobby agencies Of the New-York and
Brooklyn roads. 1t provides for turning over TO
those roads for their use and profit. for fifty
years TO come. for an absurdly inadequate CON
slderaion, the great Brooklyn Bridge. on which
these cities have expended about S200oooo0,
and which Is. to the general public of these
cities. one of the most important Of our public
works. The iniqutous character of this last
scheme has also been thoroughly exposed. and
it ought TO be impossible for II to become law;
although with powerful lobby and big sec
ton of the State machine behind II. 1t will be
pushed through unless the opposition to 1t Is
rcsolute and unremittng
But what a spectacle for gods and men Is pre-
scented by this conjunction Of three bills and
lawsuit One grasping and selfish corporation
trying to withhold from the public comfort
and convenience which common decency re-
qures 10 be provided. Another such trying TO
get out OF paying to the city the taxes 1t has
long been owing. And at the same time the
two OF them, with effrontery that would be
sublime II II were not detestable. asking these
cities virtually to make TO them gift of 500
100000. II the cities should do so. what might
we expect? That the lighting OF the Bridge
cars would be darkened to the present Manhat-
tan standard? Or that the conjoincd corpora
tons would default payment of even the beg
carly rental provided by their bill. as the Brook
Ign concern has done with Its taxes?

tempt now to determine precisely what duties
will be necessary next year or later to insure
ADEQUATE protection. The principle Is that ade-
ouate protection shall be secured, not only for
those industries that need 1t, but for those that
can be established here with advantage, as the
tinplate manufacture has been, and not for the
especial benefit of one section or State or In
dustry. but with due regard for the welfare
of the whole people. Not until Congress comes
to the point Of action can 1t be known denhi'ev
what duties on particular articles VIII then DE

now to be done Is to elect President and Con-
gress, and particularly Senator's from States

tion. who will not fail to carry out the Repub-
llcan principle as bravely and wisely as did the
Republicans in 1890.

Morton and induce him to refrain from signing
the Greater New-York bill. To this end a mass
meeting Of the people Of New-York and Brook
lyn is to be held at the Cooper Union on Tues
day evening Mr.. c. N. Bliss will preside, and
speeches will be made by some OF the most

prepare for such a meeting is short, but the
protest against the violation Of the homerule
principle will be made as emphatic as possible
even though It is believed that the Governor Is
already pledged to sign the bill.

his provocation was great. and his aim excel

Is to be admitted, II IS not TO be unreservedly
commended No doubt their constituents are
proud OF both OF them-Money because he has
shed his blood and worn c0urtpaster In de-
