TTNNEL DIGGING.

1t would be foolish to pretend that the build
ing of the underground roads is not subjecting
a great part of the population Of New-York to
serious discomfort and nficting severe losses
on a large number of persons. These evils were
to some extent foreseen. and we have no doubt
that IL the people had fully comprehended in
advance how heavy the sacrifice was going to
be they would. nevertheless, have ordered the
work TO be done i'm consideration of the benefits
TO follow They have borne the trial with ex-
emplary patience hitherto. and we have not OBJ
served any important Indications that a re-
bellious temper is spreading. The prevalent
oniniou seems to be that the contractors
rule are reasonably considerate Of the public,
and that such special annoyances as are due to
a more rapid rate Of progress than was origi-
naIly guaranteed are more than offset by the as
s,,rance that the job will be finished year or
so ahead of time. Here and there a presumably
preventable accident has occurred, and it is
probable that at various points a more scru-
pulous regard for the interests Of individuals
might be shown and ought to be required, but
on the whole we Judge that there is more rea-
son to praise than to censure those VINO are IN
charge Of the undertaking.
The condition of things does, however sug-
rest some anxious thoughts for the future. The
Rapid Transit Commission is supposed to share
the opinion which its chief engineer. Mr. Par
sons. has expressed, that the operation of the
tunnel roads now building will lead to the con-
struction of others-that the people will find
them so attractive and useful that they will
want more of them. The accuracy OF that fore
csst remains to be determined, but OF one thing
we feel pretty sure-namely, that the public will
not readily consent to a repetition Of this pres
ent experience until they have been convinced
that underground roads cannot be built to their
satisfaction without tearing the streets TO
pieces. The system Of deep tunnel construc-
ton was discarded, not because there were OBJ
stacles to its employment in this city which
engineering skill was incapable of overcoming,
but because it was believed that in order to win
enough popularity and patronage to make it
successful the first underground road in New
York must run as near the surface as possible.
In other words, the judgment Of the commits
sion was that the NewYork public would
New-York tribune., 1901-11-09

shrink from the trouble, if not from the very
idea of descending to level considerably lower
than the present plan makes necessary IN order
to take a rapid transit train.
The experimental nature OF the enterprise
probably justified that decision. but we nope
the commission is not irrevocably committed TO
the employment OF the system originally
adopted in possible future operations. The peo-
pie have been remarkably cheerful under the
infections incident to the digging OF tunnels
from the surface, because they have reasoned
that the dreadful nuisance would end before
very long and the resultant advantages WOULD
be great. But if they should be invited TO con-
template an indefinite series OF similar opera
tions our conviction is that public opinion would
interpose an imperative veto until there had
been free and full discussion of the deep tun-
mel alternative. The thought of five, ten OF NJ
teen more such years of chaos as this has been
would now seem utterly ntolerable

4 BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN.

Although the outward manifestations are not
entirely alike. there seems to he a fairly close
resemblance between the weather conditions IN
Western Europe and the United states at the
present time. The dense fog which has been
renortcd from Paris as well as London this week
indicates y starnation of atmosphere more com
mon in August than November. This phe-
nomenon is a sign that no barometric depres-
sions of any violence are passing in the Vlcln-
itv. and that an almost insensible inflow OF
warm, moist sea air from the adjacent coasts
is taking place.
In this country there has been a remarkable
prevalence of serene and rainless weather Tor
MANY weeks Owing TO the heavy precipitation
of summer deficiency now causes little ihcoh-
yenience aside from dusty roads. Something
like a fortnight ago the Washington Weather
Bureau announced the opening of a new chap
fer of history 4 series Of storms which are
characteristic of winter rather than summer,
and which originate out in the North Pacific
instead of on the continent made their appear
ance and began crossing the country from
west to east These disturbances are coming
along now at the rate of about two week.
Rut thev are so mild in character. and keep so
far north that their influence is virtually con
fined 70 the Northwest, the Great Lakes ana
Northern New England. Except for a little on
Election Day the metropolis has escaped rain
altogether AT the same time it enjoys exemp-
ton from the particular concomitant OF calm
weather which Just now annoys Paris and
London.
Meantime the dominant temperatures in the
Atlantic States, while n triffe above the average
for the season. have been delightful in the ex-
treme. Summer gave way to autumn without
abruptness and very nearly on schedule time
There has been 10 such abnormal warmth as
was experienced last year almost until Thanks
giving Day. After all. New York has some
compensations for her badly torn up streets.

THE FOLLY OF LYNCHING.

The h;deous race war; reported recently
from Louisiana is an entirely natural sequel to
the lynchings and other deeds of violence which
have long been frequent in that and other re-
gions and 80 long as the cause prevails the effect
may be expected TO exist. The question is not
a sectional one. or is at most only incidentally
So Whether North or South. or East or West
the rule holds good Violence breeds violence
Savagery engenders savagery. Lawlessness in
cites Iawlessness And the prediction may
safely be ventured that persistence in lynch
ings, and especially in the more cruel and
ferocious forms of lynching which are now in
creasingly in vogue, viii not only fail to check
the abominable offences for which such lynch
ing is ostensibly the penalty, but also will
actually provoke retaatory volerce and in
crease the evil which 1t aims to suppress Cases
of assault upon women Will not become fewer.
Interrace anmosities will become more marked
and inter-race riots will become more frequent
This is so because the essential and funda-
mental principle of these Iynchings is contempt
for law. There are those who say they
merely Fastening or an anticipation of the
legal penalty made the more effective by such
promptness That is not true, in letter or in
spirit In letter the Iynchings violate the law
because they infct in burning at the stake and
other atrocities the cruel and unusual punish
ments which are expressly forbidden by the SUI
preme law of the land. They thus in that re-
spect express contempt for the law. They do
so In spirit also, because they are universally
interpreted as indicating fear that the law
will not prove adequate to the punishment of
the crime and that if left to the orderly proc
esses of jurisprudence the criminal will escape
his Just deserts. They practically confess
sion of lack of faith in the power of the law
And what must he the natural effect of such a
confession? What must be the effect upon the
criminally inclined of q proclamation that the
law is poweress and is thing to be regarded
with contempt even by its friends? Every
1ynching is such proclama ton.
In that the supreme folly of lynching whether
in Louisiana or in New-Yo,k is demonstrated
Lynching is contempt for law. and contempt
for law is sure to encourage crime even tbe
very crime for which lynching is the penalty
Unspeakably terrible is the fate of one who
falls into the hands Of lynchers to nerisb
through slow torture at the stake Rut sncb
fate has not one tithe Of the awing and do

SOUE ENCOURAGING FTGTRFS,

The figures of this weeks vote emphasize the
wisdom of intelligent and persistent efforts to
maintain anti-Tammany organizations in the
Tamrnany stroneholds. for which The Tribune
has heretofore pleaded. The returns demon
strate that Tammany has been invincible in
those districts because IL allowed to be.
Too frequently fn old times Republican district
leaders in those localities. perhaps because they
thought the situation hopeless, were more con-
cerned with keeping control of small machine
which they could use TO give them weight in
the party organization and gain patronage than
with efforts 10 enlarge their following and win
voters from Tammany. Independents were
equally fruitIess In another way as opponents
of Tammany. They invaded district only on
the eve CT election or if they stared the year
around they did so not politicians. but as
missionaries.
A conspicuous exception is presented in the
XXth Assembly District. on the East Side,
largely a tenement house region, which Tam
many regularly carried without difficulty. In
1895 ft gave ., 702 plurality for the Democratic
State ticke.. and the next year 2245 plurality
for the Democratic candidate for Governor. IN
1887 Van Wyck carried ii over Low and Tracy
combined by 2,123, and Stanchfeld carried it
last year by 2.104 plurality. This year, how
ever, Shepard had only 71S plurality in the dis
trict. ana Gnger only 0Z5. Wnlie tne Iamlnang

For several years Captain +. Norton Goddard.
the Republican leader of the district. has been
doing intelligent and jealous political work.
He has been interested In the people, he has
lived among them. and above all. he has not
tired out at not Immediately Wrestling the dis
frict from Tammany- He has been patient and
Dersistent and has taught the people that he
was in politics with them whether he made
any apparent gain not, and that he could be
found after election well before it, 1t
was a long pull, and it would not be safe to say
that the district was permanently aligned
against Tammany. But the returns show that
Tammany can be beaten there and that the
East Side is fruitful field for discreet political
activity.
Men of Captain Goddard's capacity for lead
ership. who have also the money of their own TO
spend fn building UP civic clubs and IN other
Iocsf enterprises, are not to be picked up every
