1 nRElT FRANCHISE.

r.bo nanid Transit bill has been reported ~
hath branches of the Legislature III Il loIln
bich the Commission considers entirely sa''s-
factorv. and without evidence of serious OPP
nosition from any quarter or course, II II wen
within the range of possibility That co"tcS'
may develop later. and the Commissioners anu
tboir counsel do not conceal the fact nat the!
fool somewhat anxious on that score Ut the
eomo time the situation is decidedly encouraG
ING for various reasons. In the first place there
* GOOD reason to believe. though nobody VIII
frankly admit quite SO much, that private capi-
tal K ready TO bid for the franchise. Indeed, IL
Is pretty generally supposed that there VIII he
4 sharp competition which cannot fail TO be
advantageous To the city. In this respect II IS
certain that the outlook has changed greatly OF
late Nor Is this at oil surprising For one
thing. the amendments to the bill facilitate
negotiations Then besides, there has been
wide awakening TO the enormous growth In the
demand for transportation facilities-a growth
To which no limit can be assigned. tlnally'
financial conditions are now such rs strongly
70 solicit instead of dlscouraging investments
on large scale
The Commissioners at their hearing in Al
bany. and in other statements made for publ
cation. have enlarged upon the tempting nature
Of the franchise which they hope 10 be able TO
offer in the near future The certainty that
underground roads would do an enormous ana
lucrative business causes them 10 regret deeply
that the city must apparently forcgo the oppor-
tunltv which the existing Rapid Transit act
gives If. We are not in the least inclined to
doubt the soundness Of this view. The tide of
travel up and down the Island must constantly
increase. while the experience OF Boston ana
London proves cOnclusivey that even now there
Is n strong popular preference for underground
roads Of the modern type, instead Of an aversion
TO them We confidently believe that the right
10 construct and operate such roads in the
boroughs of Manhattan and The Bronx is the
most valuable right which this community has
to bestow.
For this reason It has occurred 10 us that
rather too much Is being said about the neces-
slty Of making the rapid transit franchise at
tractive to capital by extraordinarily liberal
terms. It can safely be taken for granted that
there Is no conceivable advantage which n cor
poratlon bidding for the franchise will forget TO
demand; but happily It is TO be expected that
the Commission. which has put on record a
high estimate Of the profits TO he derived from
underground transportation, will rcsoutely pro
tect the cltys interests II Is great satlsfac
ton to know that the philosophical citizens
who under the terms OF the act will retain
complete control Of the negotiation and super
vision Of the enterprise are sagaciOuS and in
corTuptiblc.

THE NEW SENATE.

The adjournment Of the Delaware cgislature
creates a vacancy in the Senate from that State,
so that for two years that body Will comprise
only eighty-ciGht members. Utah also having
failed to elect. even if Senators should yet be
elected from California and Pennsylvania.
With the election Of Mr.. VI. l.. Hayward from
Nebraska last week the Republicans now have
Il clear majority Of f0rty-hyc votes or more for
every purpose, and that certainly will undoubt-
eddy prevent antaSoniStic action 10y several of
the silver Senators who might have been in
duced to join hostile combination having any
pos slbility of success. With twcnty-six Re
publcans and one Democrat holding over who
voted against the silver resolution year ago
the Republican since elected from Oregon. and
seventeen Republicans elected TO ill the va
cancles occurring this month, there are at least
fortyGve votes on that side. without counting
Mr. Clark, of Wyoming. who voted for the
resolution. but has since been reelected. his
colleague Mr.. Warren, and others Hence it
IS probable that considerably more than a bare
majority will be found on the right side If no
election should take place in PENNSYLVANIA or
California. or even II those States should elect
Democrats.
on the tariff question the majority Is re-
markedly large. With forty Republican Scna-
tors. two silver and one Democratic Senator
who voted or wee paired for the Dnglcy bill,
Senator Kyle who did not vote at all. but has
since acted with the Republicans. and eleven
Republicans since elected, with q Democrat
from Montana who declares for protection. there
VIII be nj least hfty-siX votes on the right side
out Of cighiy-siX seats so far filed. When il is
remembered that there was five majority for
the Wilson hill in the Senate less than hye
years ago. thirtynine 70 thirty -four. with SIX
pairs II may be realized what a revolution has
been wrought IN public opinion by the three
years If experience under that act. Even IN
1890 the majority for the Mckinley Hill on tho
final vote was only six IN the Senate: to-day
there would be at least twenty six majority,
