NEW.YnRK PORT IMPROYEMENTS.

In the matter Of harbor facilities at New-York
disgust has now given place to rising hope.
Perhaps we might say not only hope but exulta-
ton. were 1t not for the classic warning against
Boosting at putting armor on. At least the ar
n,or Is being we'll put on. and 1t Is good armor.
The scheme Of Improvement at our southern sea
gate is broad generous and practical. Whether
that Is the only gate that should be used, and
whether in the long battle with the Atlantic
Ocean man will always be ahead may be dis
puted points The point beyond dispute is that
If we are to continue to depend upon that gate
great improvements are necessary. and are now
provided for and will promptly be executed in
the most satisfactory manner. For we take it
that no one, neither contractor nor bureaucrat,
will dare even If so inclined. to mark this work
with the wretched palterng and delay and
stiffness that have been characteristic of the
work at the other end of the harbor. We be-
lieve the merchants of NewYork and the ship
owners of London and Liverpool and Hamburg
may now rest in the assurance that at the eari-
est possible date there will be a channel be-
tween the wharves of this city and the Atlantic
Ocean which the largest ships may traverse at
all times with perfect freedom from danger of
grounding or foullng. That is what New-York
imperatiyey needs That Is what II is going to
have.
For this happy assurance the frstand a long
step toward that general scheme Of harbOr and
terminal Improvements which the interests of
the metropolis require, acknowledgements are
due to many men who have earnestly labOred
therefor. We shall not incur the reproach of
righteousness, however, in saying that gratitude
is first of all due to the enlightened chairman of
the Commerce Committee Of the United States
Senate, who has long shown himself the stanch
and unselfish friend Of this port. and TO whose
effective efforts the present auspiclous state of
affairs is chiefly due. We have already an
nounced that dinner is to be given to Senator
Frye next week by the principal commercial
bodies Of New-York in recognition OF his services
IN this matter 1t will be fitting and weil-de
served tribute 1t will be paid in this city,
where the immediate results of Senator Frye's
craftsmanship will first be felt It will be paid
by organizations which In q true sense are not
local, but representative of the whole Empire
State. to whose prosperity the commerce Of
New-York City is so essential We are confident
1t will command the appreciation and sympa-
thetic regard Of the entire Nation, which finds
here its chief and best gateway Of communica-
ton with all the world.

A WILLIAMS TO THE RESCUE

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: As one OF the five thousand persons who lis
tened to George Fred Williams last Saturday
night. I ask the privilege OF saying few words
in connection with your editorial on Cases In
Point In your issue Of this date. What wish to
say is that can tell you two ways OF strengthen
ing many OF your editorials.
The first way is to bear In mind that exceptions
prove the rule. Because or two factory owners
raise the wages Of their employees In these days.
that does not show that protection Is a good thing
for the countryyour frequent reservations to the
contrary notwithstanding. Nor was Mr.. Williams
wrong In saying that capitalism makes our school
books simply because DR.. Rdpath sat on the plat
form while Mr.. williams was speaking Mr.. Will
Jams might have added that the editorial chairs and
the puplts OF the land are filed with traitors and
apostaes for that is true In spite OF the fact that
a few editors honestly believe in human freedom.
and n few ministers truly preach the fatherhood OF
God and the brotherhood OF man
The other way In which you can add strength
to your editorials is by having all of them that
deal with economics revised In your composing
room. AT tho printers case you VIII md men to
whom the truths are clear that seem 10 confound

THE WHITE EDUCATION BILL.
SAID TO BE BLOW AT THE HIGH SCHOOLS OF |
THE STATE.

THE STATE.
To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The more the White Education bill. in Its
later changed FORM is considered. the more appar-
emit Il becomes that the recent wholesale amend
ments thereto are mainly In furtherance OF the In
terests of the Department OF Public Instruction.
which seeks to aggrandize Itself by wrestling the
control OF the high schools OF the State from the
encouraging and eevating supervision OF the Re-
gents OF the University. The high schools have not
asked for any such change in their guardianship.
nor can It in any way conduce to their welfare
The proposed change of name OF the Department
OF Public Instruction to that Of State Department
OF Education. and a similar change OF the title OF
it's chief from Superintendent 10 Commissioner Sig
niaes nothing except possible obscurng OF the es-
sentiay selfish purpose sought to be subserved
which 1t is strange that some very good men fail
clearly to see.
One of Superintendent SINNERS claims has been
that he should have the control OF the high schools
because they are supported by public money. But
why for that reason? Obviously the plea Is
fallacious The Regents of the University are
public State officers. equally with the Superin-
tendent, elected in the same way-by the Legis-
Iature in Joint session-and equally for a public
service.
No thoughtful unbiased person will believe that
tally same Observation-Disclosures whatever baptism
of new name-or any public educational depart
the Board of Regents of the University. can be
kept as free from political domination as the Ke re
gents conspcuously have been throughout their
entire existence of over a hundred years. And no
blight more baneful could fall upon our now most
excellent high schools than to have them become
the subjects OF partisan political strife Tor their
control and exploiting. 49,,
They are well off where they are. Let them
