John Sherman has decided to accept
the Office of secretary OF state. In this
manner he will round out a long and
distinguished career. For over 40 years
he has been in the service OF his coun-
try. Throughout that period. which was
! flied with the greatest events, he has
been conspicuous and always equal TO
the great emergencies which he was
called upon 20 face.
Once before he filled a cabinet posi-
ton. and filled il SO ably il was agreed
that he was foremost among the finan-
ciers of the age. II was during his
term of Office that the time arrived for
the resumption of specie payments, and
il was generally conceded that an eNpe-
riment was to be tried which would
demonstrate the wisdom of the policy
of the republican party. or show that
break at last had been made in the long
list of brilliant achievements begun I'M
der the Lincoln administration when
the work of reestaplishing the nations

the conduct of the great civil war was
undertaken As January l, 1879. APP
preached there was much foreboding,
and fear was expressed that instead OF
resumption specie payments being
effected there might be drain on the
treasury and another season OF financial
excitement would be inaugurated.
Calmly. but with scientific care, the
secretary of the treasury. Mr.. Sherman.
made his preparations for The great day.

as the government passes from demo

every contingency. and again the wis

There is not particle OF danger Of

month were but s57.9j5.OOo. the ex-
cess Of our exports over imports for De-
cember being sjo.27l. Oo3. or an excess
Of more than s2.oO0.0OO more than all
our imports. Our gold supply is all
right. and will continue all right as
long as the American people patronize
home institutions by buying American
made goods in preference to all others.
The balance Of merchandise trade was
S32j.222.1si in favor of the United
States for 1896. but we are still buying
too many foreign goods. Dun & Co.'S
Review states that the large balance Of
trade in our favor renders certain the
continuance of gold payments in this
country and freedom from any endan-
eering drain Of gold on foreign &C.

n riot against the police occurred yester-
Gay in one of the most densely populated
alleys in the city, furnishing another rea-
son fer prompt work in clearing out these
tenters OF vice, crime and disease These
outbdrsts on the part of the alley popula
tion against the least show of public au-
thority must be discouraged, and, so far
as possible, the infamous nests where the
fighting occurs must be broken up Several
of the larger cities of the country have
recently bet giving considerable attention
10 the eradication Of these moral plague
spots and thus far the work has been at
tended with only good results. In New
\ ork several dark and noisesome courts
no-thororghfares and breeding grounds for
vice and crime, have been cleaned out and
one Of tbs most notorious by-ways of the
city, Mulberry Bend. has been transformed
into public park. There are no such
slums her the worst of New York but
some Of the local alleys and courts have
become absolutely dangerous. In many
cases these pest holes are located imme-
diately behind respectable residences, the
occupants of which are annoyed and even
menaced by their uncleanly loose and noisy
neighbors. The Commissioners have wisely
taken up the matter so far as the public
health is concerned, but yesterdays Incl
dent illustrates another phase of the case
mat needs serious attention. There should
be no places in. the District surrounded by
such moral and physical conditions that the
police canrot enter without fearing murder
Gus assaults Such places now exist where
all formal authority is defied where an
archy practically reigns on a small scale
and where the germs Of crime and disease
are generated in appalling quantities and
with frightful freedom. The movement
now under way to provide better homes for
the poor, 10 replace these alley tenements
AIMS at but one remedy. The public au-
trorlties themselves. backed, perhaps. by
Few laws, must take up the other phase of
the case ard seek 10 root out these greater
evils 1t Is y difficult problem and one that
requires feroic measures of cure but the
cure can. be had. One means to the end
would pos: IDLY be the limitation of the
number of persons living in each of these
alleys. This would reduce the menace to
the police somewhat and would affect the
health conditions as we'll. A remedy al,
ready al hand is the imposition upon all
persons assaulting police men of the maxi
mum term of Imprisonment. Whenever
such ARRAYS as that of yesterday occur no
pains should be spared TO find the rioters
and put them in the hands of the law. If
