exports of electrical machinery We're
recorded, but by 1900 the figures for
eight months transactions had reached
about two and one-half million dollars,
and for the eight months ending with
February this year amounted to 3d.

typewriters We're not separately shown
in 1891, but by 1901 the exports for
eight months had reached 81, TS5, S21,
an increase of S60.0O0 V the preced-
ing year. Scales and balances have in
creased in export value over fifty per
cent. during the decade; locomotives
200 per cent, printing presses over 300
per cent. Every item in the entire iron
schedule shows n substantial increase
in 1901 rs compared with 1891, but in
a few instances there are decreases as
compared with 1900, presumably due
to the advanced prices consequent upon
the increased cos of material.
The area of distribution steadily and
rapidly enlarges. In builders hardware,
for instance, the exports now go not
only to the principal countries of Eu-
rope, but to Mexico, Central and South
America and the West Indies, British
East Indies. China, Japan, Australia,
Africa and the islands of the Oceanica.
Sewing machines and typewriters find
a market in the most distant islands
and the demand from the European
and other leading countries is increas-

LOOSE METHODS IN OFFICE.

The dispute which has arisen between the
Register Of this county and the commissioner
who Is at the head of the department which
has charge of the public supplies brings to view
some interesting things which seriously concern
the taxpayers. Both Register Fromme and Com
missioner kearny are prominent and influential
members of Tammany. Here is no question of
''ins" and outs and no charges emanate from
n so-called 'reformer' or "informer" Both the
commissioner and the Register are practical poll
tcians. with heads of the hardest kind. They
are not rivals or enemies for district leadership
or anything of the sort. Ii has often been said
OF Commissioner Kearny, and with ample rea-
son. that he has shown an extremely liberal dis
position in his estimates of expenditure in his
department. But the Registers office has been
so prodiGal in the purchase of unnecessary and
superfuous typewriting machines that even the
generous temperament of Mr. Kearny is moved
10 protest. Moreover. scores of these instru-
ments above the number which can be made
actually useful have been obtained without sub
mitting acquisitions for the approval of the
commissioner, as the law provides. Therefore
the commissioner properly objects to the bills
and the Controller, also properly. refuses to
settle them. The ease is perfectly plain one
and the evidence that extravaganza prevails in
the registers Office as in almost every other
ONCE IN New-fork which is in the hands of
practical, professional politicians, is absolutely
unanswerable
AZ is suggestive 10 recur TO the former years
wheh The Register of this county took in all the
lees OF the office under the law as il then stood
and paid all the expenses out of those receipts
For many year under that system the office
was one OF the most profitable in America and

A NGPHOE VETO.

The Governor of Utah has vetoed the bill pro-
viding that complaints of unlawful cohabitation
could be sworn to only by persons whose adverse
interests and feelings would make their refusal
to support an action virtually certain. OSten-
sibly designed to prevent malicious prosecution
in occasional instances. this bill was commonly
understood 10 be a crafty device for perpetual
ing polygamy, in violation of the explicit COM
pact under which Utah was admitted to the
Union as sovereign State. The Mormon
Church authorities. by whom it was ardently
advocated, naturally did not cOncede that such
its purpose but its opponents, including
some members of the church. had no doubt on
the subject and on that belief the issue was
practically drawn. Governor Wells had an
extraordinary opportunity to achieve honorable
distinction by Withholding his assent. contrary
to his personal sympathies, on the ground that
he could not be party to a breach of faith, and
there are many reasons TO regret that his action
was dictated merely by considerations of expe-
diency.
The immediate effect will doubtless be fortu-
nate. for the bill cannot be passed over the veto.
and the present law, which, though ii is not
easy of enforcement. nevertheless makes polyGa-
nous relations somewhat dangerous. is left
unchanged. But the incident does not weaken
the position of those who contend that the evil
just barely escaped for the time being ought to
be forever prevented by making marriage and
divorce subject to Federal regula ton possibly
indeed 10y the adoption of constitutional
amendment expressly directed against poyg-
amy. However that proposition may have been
regarded heretofore by the majority of intell
gent citizens Of the United States. who
agreed in dctcsting the peculiar institution with
which the history of Utah is identified. the argu-
undermined by the occurrence which has lately
aroused deep interest there and elsewhere.
Governor Wells has unQueStionably taken n
sagacious view Of the case. Ii he had signed
the bill the consequence, As he says. would have
been general demand for national action
against certain social conditions in Utah. 1t
may not he quite certain as he suppoSes that
under the existing circumstances the demand
would have been compiled with. though we hope
there would have been no hesitation on the part
of Congress in undertaking a solution of the
problem. II remains TO be seen whether his
veto. due TO n dread Of reprisaS instead of 10 a
sense of honorable obligation, and therefore an
act not Of principle but Of prudence will he
deemed a sufficient security for the future As
TO that opinions may differ, but ii is desirable
TO consider that if Mormonism is in fact spread
ing as rapidly as its propaSandists represent
the lapse of time will make ii increasingly
difficult to secure the ratification Of an anti
requisite number OF States.

onening The Rabbi Israel Aaron. who says
that he speaks not as Jew, but as an American
citizen, declares:
Many Jews and nominal Christians and a
large number of no religious affiliations have
stock and interest in the exposition, ana the
religious convictions of these people have
clear right to consideration To suppress thefh'
to deny them, by mere force of majority Is 10
exercise the tyranny of brute force-to revive III
day, in a modern way, the horrid intolerance
OF the Dark Ages. when they tortured perSe
cuted and burned to death the adherents OF
numerically weaker faiths.
The Rev. Burrus A. Jenkins suggests that the
educational features of the exposition be thrown
open to the public on Sundays. The Rev L. NJ
Powers advocates Sunday opening. THE man
who does not believe in the churchman's way
'of observing Sunday" he says, has as good Il
right to his opinion the churchman. More
than this. he has the same right to hear con-
'cert in the Temple of Music that have to so
Ito church."
Two other Buffalo pastors take strong ground
against Sunday opening but it is noteworthy
that one of them. the Rev. s. s. Mitchell. Il
Presbyterian, declares that Sunday as an insti-
tute of religion lis a debatable subject. both
'to the obligation that enforces it and the use
that shall be made of it''-an admission that
makes strongly against the rigid Sabbatarians
who condemn all views of Sunday observance
but tnelr own. win so fnuch dlherence or
opinion among good men it will be no easy task
for the directors of the exposition to come 10 q
decision on the question. But If. after weighing
all the arguments. they should decide in favor
of Sunday opening. the character of Sunday will
not be changed. Those who believe in its rigid
observance will continue to believe. with no
one to hinder them or make them afraid. All
that will happen is that others who have diff
fcrent conception of Sunday will be permitted to
observe it in their own way
