TRARTELY AND PICQUART.

The most impressive incident Of the Dreyfus
case last week was the removal OF Captain
Drcyfus himself from Devils Isle, and his de-
parture for France for-we may confidently
experimentation and rehabilitation. Second
to IL alone-if not indeed its peer-was the
release of Colonel Picquart. II Dreyfus has
been the victim. Picquart has been the hero.
Let us bear in mind the facts Of his case lie
supposed Dreyfus to have been justly con-
demned. He was detailed 10 close up the case
and file away the papers. He then discovered
that Dreyfus was innocent and that Esterhazy
was guilty. He told his superlors of his dis
covery. They told him to mind his own bust
ness to maintain the guilt of Dreyfus and 10
screen the real criminals. His choice was to
obey them. deny the truth, and win promotion
and rewards. or TO stand bravely for truth and
Justice. and be punished and degraded We all
know what happened.
He chose the latter course. Immediately
the military authorities showed their displeas
ure. They removed him from his place, sup
planting him with more plant tool. They
sent him off TO Africa on the most dangerous
mission they could devise. just as David put
Triah I'm the forefront OF the battle. As he did
not get killed they then recalled him TO France
arrested him as criminal and threw him
into prison 1t Is presumed that they tried
their best 10 induce him TO commit suicide.
Probably. failing that. they would have had
him murdered in his cell had he not given pub
lie warning that If he were found dead In
prison II would be n case not OF suicide, but
Of murder so they let him live. They were
ready at any time to release him and promote
him II he would deny the truth But lie was
too high a price for him 10 pay, even for lib
erty and life. To-day he is free man once
more and he has not denied the truth. Is II

CIVILIZATIONS PAUPERS.

The savage state has no poOrhOuse. Where all
five from hand to mouth, nobody trying to win
larger or better future for the tribe, il is not a
disgrace to be pauper, and those who do least
may be honored as braves. But every step tow
ard higher civilization imposes burdens In old
New-England towns the pOorhouse kept those
%ho were not able or not willing 10 earn their
share Of the general cost of living and there was
forced work for the lazy. Going yet higher, the
burden Of civilization In this world is not borne
By all races or nations alike. But II the neces-
Sary minimum share is borne II nation merely
supports itself but does nothing toward gaining
for the rest of mankind better conditions and
brighter prospects 1t is discharging its whole
duty. according to teachers of the Atkinson Gar
rison class. National greed and selfish isolation
are reckoned the high virtues, and refusal to help
mankind anywhere toward higher civilization Is
held duty
The Teacher who gave himself for others in
Judea made a different doctrine the test of all
human progress since. II makes work for all the
duty Of all. 1t has poorhouses for those who will
not work, hospitals for those who cannot and
the chance Of poorhouse for every one who is
content TO live from hand TO mouth. In the larger
economy of nations events are teaching the same
doctrine. The nation which best does its duty
toward the enlargement and uplifting of man
kind, toward justice everywhere and such free
dom as is possible and defence against interna-
tional spoliaton finds reward In the widest In
fuence, the greatest opportunities for enterprise,
the largest wealth and the best development Of
Individual manhood. II learns that true man
hood comes not by eating and drinking alone.
nor by selfish isolation, but by striving nightly
against odds wherever justice may be enthroned
instead Of tyranny, and civilization may take the
place Of barbarism.
Some nations do what they can. They are
worth something to the world besides the cost
of their own living. For them there Is no chance
Of the poorhouse. no waiting for enforced labor
under the lash OF events. According 10 their
measure they rise in manhood, In opportunities

THE SEASIDE PARK PROJECT.

II Is evident from the special meetings held in
Plymouth Church and the Church Of the Pill
crims on Sunday and from the sympathetic ut
terances of many Brooklyn pastors and other
influential citizens that Controller Coler's prof.
Get for a spacious public park at Coney Island
has aroused much interest in his borough II Is
said furthermore that all elements Of the popu-
lation, including the politicians are favorable TO
the undertaking, and that the only opposition
thus far manifested proceeds from the proprie-
tors OF vicious resorts on the island, who fear
that they may be driven out Of business. On
this side of the East River less attention has
been paid TO the proposal, and so far as we have
observed the Controllers colleagues are not raj
lying to his support with great alacrity. This is
rather surprising for, though independent ac-
tion is not usually approved in Tammany Hail.
the creation of seaside park would presuma-
bly, open new sources of emolument to the faith
full and favored members of the organization.
That fact. indeed must be recognized one
of the objections to the scheme but do not
consider 1t necessarily fatal Having been de-
livered over to Tammany rule. New-York is sure
to be badly governed but Intelligent citizens
cannot afford TO antagonize all plans of I'm
provement merely because the presumption Is
that their execution would be unskiful and eX-
travagant There are some things which the
community must have even II 1t Is required 10

addition to the Open-air recreation places OF the
city could scarcely fall under any admnistra-
tlon to give great enjoyment and benefit TO a
vast number Of persons. The land essential to
the purpose, over and above that already owned
by the city, would be acquired through condem-
nation proceedings. and II is not unreasonable 10
