A LITTLE RESPITE.

Institutions that have learned to eX-
pect attacks from legislators are getting
Il little temporary solace out of the fact
that q number of the state assemblies
are to be occupied for while in the
Forthcoming sessions over closely contest
ed elections for United States senator's.
IN several legislatures either the major
ty of one party is SO small or the num-
her of candidates so large, that proJong-
cd contests are certain. This is likely
to occupy time and attention to the beE-
eft vested interests which are COM
mon objects of attack. OF course the lat
ter cannot hope to escape, and will in
due season be subject to the usual har
RAISING, but anything which keeps legisla
tors otherwise occupied is so much clear
gain, especially in states where there
is time limit to the sessions. Satan
ever finds ample mischief fer the aver
age legislator to do, but the latter is less
apt to be in a dangerously idle state of
mind when there is a senatorial contest

Plat, that ali control shall be taken away
from the people Of the several cities and
merged entirely in Mr., Platt and his po-
litical friends "up the state" Politics
and reform may be regarded as con-
vertible terms by very wicked persons
like Richard Croker and his fellow bosses
of Tanamany. But by Mr.. Plat and his
aides the two are utterly irreconcilable.
In order to reform anything or anybody,
according to MI. Plat, you have to take
that thing or that person cut of politics,
and then everything is serene. Hence the
taking of the New York police out OF
politics and out of the control of the peo-
pie at one and the same time!

METROPOLITAN.

AT the White Horse Tavern" which
will be seen at the Metropolitan to-
night and the remainder of the week.
IS comedy of transatlantic flavor,
which has been on the road to success
SO long that it may be considered that
it has nearly reached the goal. 1t tastes
of the real Tyrol, the region of romance,
the Austrian Alps, and the bit of an
inn that is tucked away in the noun
tain side, a continued invitation to re-
pose for the guests who essay to stop
there in the play.
The reflection from the ice on the
Alpine submits dazzle their eyes; the
little lake that leaves the road at the
mountains foot threatens to swallow
them, and the fieecy clouds grow black
and pour down avenging showers of
real water, which soak the just and I'M
just actors alike.
The sunshine gets through often, how
ever, and there is a laugh every few
seconds. There are music and folk
songs, pretty maidens and romantic
trysts. quaint characters and odd do
1ngs; in fact. the most delightful pot
pouru of color to delight the eye. Of
wit to delight the ear, and of connected
merit that appeals to the Intelligence
and understanding.
The play comes from Germany, the
a source which has supplied more than
one success and inspired others. The
Germans are prolific play producers, al
though they do not always give the
best acting versions. ''At the White
Horse Tavern has passed through the
hands of Sydney Rosenfeld, and it has
