THE NEW HALL OF RECORDS.

The nrosDect that New-York will have new
Hall Of Records before the Invaluable contents
Of the old Registers Office have been destroyed
by fire is brought nearer by the announcement
that Governor Black has signed the Dill author-
izng this undertaking. The success or move
ment which at the beginning was not more nope
full than previous endeavors to accomplish the
same object have been forcibly suggests the
proper means of putting into execution any real
" indispensable scheme Of public Improvement.
This affair has prospered thus far. not because
of any new proofs Of its Importance, but because
number of men thoroughly familiar WIN the
situation made it their business and stuck TO IL.
The arguments were all their side, but they
knew how 10 use them effectively. and their per-
sistence was equal to their tact. They had the
wisdom TO make friends instead OF enemies Oh
those who were in a position 20 help or hinder
them. but above all they never rested from their
labOrs
We are glad to observe, moreover, that the
members of the association who have performed
this useful service do not consider their task
ended. Mr. Menken, chairman of the Executive
Committee. has improved his earliest opportunity
to urge the Board of Estimate and Apportioll-
ment 10 prompt action. As he says, site ought
10 be selected al once and architects set to work
preparing plans The undertaking, though now
apparently sure of ultimate completion. Is in
Just the stage where delays in municipal enter
prises are common. but avoidable The usual
methods of procedure, for which system rather
than any individual is responsible are slow. ana
they are not truly economical. 1t Is seldom. If
ever necessary that the city should spend twice
or thrice as much time in getting what it wants
and intends to have as a private citizen Womb
spend upon ar operation of equal magnitude.
The bill which the Governor has approved was
designed to facilitate the various processes pre-
liminary TO the actual work OF building new
Hall of Records adjacent 10 but not in the CITY
Hall Park. Nothing ought to be permitted TO
interfere with that purpose. suitable site
will never be worth less than it is worth to-day,
and every needless delay will involve an mex
cusable risk of irreparabe disaster.

No rerrymander ever failed 10 bring about the

The present danger TO the party is in its appar-
