recently expressed opinion that
the administration of Tammany
will be very different from what
its enemies predicted. No one
who has followed the meetings
of the board Of estimate, now going
over the immense expense bills of the
great city, and seen the ruthless man
ner in which the mayor has cut esti-
mated expenditures, will look for a
repetition Of past squandering. Mr..
Croker told the executive committee Of
Tammany hall the other evening that
the gaze, not only Of the city, but Of
the entire country, was on them. 1--WE
must show that we appreciate and
merit the confidence placed in us. If
we don't we are gone. Remember
that" There must be no soldering"
Let no man." he said, "be unfaithful
to his trust, for should he be, he will
find no more unrelenting and vigorous
prosecutor than will be the Tammany
hall organization" 1t is evident that
Mr.. Croker means what he says. Those
who have distrusted him can afford to
suspend judgment for a time.

Modern Miracles.

More wonderful than the rush of peo-
pie to the Klondike is the sudden crea-
ton and multiplication of means Of
communication with the distant and
inaccessible gold fields. The discov-
cries, late last year, of gold deposits in
marvellous possibilities that lie within
the ken of modern science, invention
and industry. There has been but one
short season in which to attempt to
bridge the gulf that separates the ter
minus Of our great transportation
routes from the recesses Of Alaska.
That season comprised the winter
months that build their impossible bar
riers about all the approaches to the
Alaskan country. Where not even the
desperate determination of the miner
could force a way, it might have been
thought hopeless to plan means of
transporting great numbers Of men
and huge quantities of freight.
Enterprise and capital have been
equal to the problem. Our news dis
patches yesterday announced that the
aerial railway over the Chilkoot pass
has been completed to Lake Under
man. Thus, in the depths of winter,
the worst portion of the route to the
Klondike has been conquered, and a
transportation company is ready to
carry passengers and freight over the
on the head waters of the Yukon. One
day will accomplish the former journey
of a month. At the same time con-
tracts have been let by the Canadian
government to various companies for
the construction of lines of railway ap-
preaching the Klondike country by
different routes. Although less than a.
year will have elapsed since the
thoughts and dreams of men began to
center about Alaska and. although this
period has been one most unfavorabIe
to the prosecution of railroad enter
prise, it is probably true that, before
the end of the coming summer, not
only will there be sufficient facilities to
carry the anticipated immigration to
Alaska, but the miner and the tourist
will have choice of lines by which
to reach their goal The achievements
of industry and capital, in their assault
upon the apparently impossible, con-
stitute the modern miracle.

"Slipped In" and Knocked Ont

The Elkins Interpolation in seo+io,
Y of the Dingley act is an nm
easy Banquo. The general board or
customs appraisers has laid it again
but there is right of appeal TO which
the treasury department may resort
1t has had various experience r.
slipped in" the Dingley bill when the
latter was in the senate. in tha r,os+
clandestlne manner. No one knew it
was there. Senator Allison, INTRODUCING
the sections Of the bill to the senator's
said that section % was the same old
sectlon that had been there for a can-
fury. Chairman Dingley, when the bill
came out of conference, vouched for
the innocence of the section. And af-
ter the bill had received the vita1izino,
touch OF that "mother-of -pearl pen -
heid in the presidential hand, 1t was
discovered that there was ferocious
Senegambian hidden in 1t. Then canoe
the first construction of the sec+ion nv,
Attorney General McKenna, holding
that the language was plain and that
1t meant 10 per cent tax on all goods
from foreign countries coming into this
from contiguous territory. When the
roar caused by this reached WASHING
ton the attorney general as readily held
the other way. Should the treasury
department appeal from the decision OF
the board of appraisers, the same per-
son who, as attorney general, held both
ways, will, as a justice Of the supreme
court, have his choice of his own con-
trary opinions.
But Senator Elkins was not to
be baffled by Migratory attor-
ney general. Some customs collec-
tors refused to be guided by the later
opinion Of the attorney general and
levied the extra 10 per cent duty. The
importers appealed to the board Of an
praisers, and now they take the starch
OUT of Senator Elkins' little scheme
by adopting the last of the attorney
generals opinions for their own. The
board finds the same difficulty with
which the attorney general met, and
which confronts everyone who attempts
to make the worse appear the better
side, by depriving plain language of it's
plain meaning. The board quite rivals
the attorney general in the murkiness
of the reasoning by which it reaches
the same conclusion. The changes
made, says Judge Somerville, who
writes the opinion. were to prevent
evasions of the law by vessels Of

No Revolving Fund.

The charter commission did wisely in
following the recommendation of Mr..
Dean that section providing for a
LEGAL improvement revolving fund be
referred back for consideration to the
committee in which it originated We
scarcely know why any one should sug-
gest the Incorporation in our new char
ter Of feature as familiar and as I'M
satisfactory as this. The revolving
fund idea, as was pointed out, has been
tried in various times and at various
places, and has failed to give the salts
faction expected of it. 1t was an an
tique device of a time when expendi-
lures were heavy and debt-paying a
that the fund was drawn upon for pay
ments upon exempted property and for
other purposes until there was nothing
of it left. 1t would be a measure of
justice to contractors if when local
improvements are to be made, there
were some source from which funds
were derivable, so as to be turned over
when the work should be completed
1t is an injustice, against which COM
plant has been made without remedy
in the past, that the contractor may
| have to wait weeks or months for his
pay after he must meet expenditures
incurred upon his own account, while
the city receives the benefit from the
penalties inflicted upon delinquent as
scssments. But it is curing one evil
by creating another, and that one pos
sibly worse, to graft upon the present
arrangement the revolving fund
scheme.
The reliance upon a sum of money
which turns out usually, in the long
run, to be a fiction of bookkeeping, is
one objection. Another is the issuing
of certificates of Indebtedness against
future income. We do not care what
the sapient city comptroller holds with
reference to this obligation, nor does
even the dictum of court change the
fact that a promise to pay is promise
to pay. Whether or not a part of
the public debt in the strict sense
o. the term, it is SO in fact Certifi-
Gates Of Indebtedness issued against tax
receipts are enough, without adding to
them the bulk of a complicated issue
against expected receipts from all sorts
Of local assessments. The section which
the charter commission has discussed
and rejected should not, 1t seems TO
us, be brought to light again until it
has been amended by taking the re-
vclving fund idea out Of it. 1t seems
strange that this antiquated plan for
whipping the devil around the stump
should meet with favor, while the no.
ton of permitting local assessments to
be paid in installments, measure SO
greatly to the relief of the taxpayer.
and eventually to the interest of the
public treasury, should have so hard
way to fight into public comprehen-
sion and favor.

AERIAL TRAMWAY READY.
So Railway Officials Arc Advised by
the Builders.

Late yesterday afternoon Northern
Pacific officials received advices from
Seattle, forwarded from there by the
builders of the aerial tramway across
the ChilkOot pass from Dyea to Lake
Linderman. The advice is by wire,
and to the effect that the tramway is
completed between the two points
named. and freight will be carried at
IS cents pound until business to the
amount Of 1000 tons has been con-
tracted for. 1t is expected that later
the rate will be advanced The present
capacity of the tramway is about for
ty to fifty tons daily, but by the end
of February the indications are that
from 100 to 125 tons a day can be trans
ported across the pass. The owners
will this week carry the provisions and
outfit OF the Canadian Northwest
mounted police, and later expect to do
the business for the United States re-
lief expedition when it reaches Dyea.
There are thousands of people at
Dyea waiting to have their stuff car
ried over the difficult pass
