The force of circumstances which he dld not
fOresee has constrained Mr. Shepard not merely
TO denOunce Deverys latest outbreak as "unnt
10 an extreme degree and deserving of severe
reprobation," but also 10 intimate that he viii
get rid of Devery without delay in case he HIM
self is elected Mayor. Doubtless he has come
pretty near violating the rule OF conduct whlch
his devotion TO the constitution caused him TO
Law down for his own guidance and the con-
fusion Of Mr.. Low: hut do not wish it TO be
understood that we are adding this to the long
list of campaign performances which have dis
credited Mr. shepard On the contrary. we
think that il is more respectable than almost
anything else he has done since he stopped TO
become Tammany's candidate and 4 chief apOl-
ogst for Crokerism. That part Of his speech on
Monday evening which referred 10 Devery
showed a sort of courage in which Mr.. Shepard 5
public utteranceS have of late been generally
and painfully deficient While, therefore. its
Inconsistency cannot escape attention. the inn
preston which it has produced is agreeable
rather than the reverse.
But the real significance Of the incident would
he missed if il were noted only as pleasant
reminder Of Mr.. Shepard's previous career.
What makes il politically important is the fact
that his condemnation of Devery was vigorously
applauded by an East Side audience gathered
in the heart of Sullivan's district The leaders
on the platform were gloomy and silent, but the
rest Of those present showed plainly that they
liked il. The occurrence greatly strengthened
the evidence which anti-Tammany speakers,
and especially Mr. Jerome. have developed. that
the voters of Tammany's old stronghOlds under
stand their own interests at last and are turn
ing against the organization which has so long
and so grossly betrayed them.
If Mr. Shepard derived moral qualification
from the manner in which tardy revelation Of
his better nature was received, he is heartily
welcome 10 it; hut If he assumes that such a
response 10 such sentiments from n Bowery
audience means votes for him, he is likely 10
find that he is greatly mistaken. All the indi-
cations are that II means decisive growth Of
hostility 10 Tammany government in districts
on which Tammany has hitherto depended for
a blind and solid support. In applauding Mr..
Shepards rebuke Of Devery that typical East
Side assemblage signifed its condemnation Of
what Devery stands for.

THE FRENCH MINING MENACE.

Anxiety concerning the threatened miners
strike in France is by no means Yet abated.
The government has resorted 10 strong and un-
usual means for repressing violence and agita-
ton. and various other circumstances have
combined 10 discourage the plans OF the would
he strikers Nevertheless, there remains grave
danger of a widespread strike. accompanied
with scenes of violence and blOodshed That
danger viii Friday of this week reach the
crucial point and will then probably either be
realized in an actual strike be postponed until
April ! of next year-the latter date having
been mentioned, perhaps as often as that Of No
vember i. and being generally regarded as
sure alternative TO the latter.
The idea has seemed 10 prevail in some quar-
tiers that all the mines in which strikes are
threatened-practically all the mines in France
are the property Of the State and that the strike.
IL il occurs will thus he directed against the gov
ernment itself. Such is by no means the case
The mines Of France are Of varied ownership, in
dividual and corporate and so are the great in
dustrial establishments directly connected with
them. The chief storm centre at present, as on
former similar occasions is at Montceau-les-
Mines. where a serious and destructive strike
occurred not long ago. the animosities engen-
dered in which have not yet subsided. That is
an especially ominous danger point because of
the proximity Of Schneider's great Creusot iron
! and steel works. The latter establishment.
which is TO France what Krupp's Essen works
are 10 Germany, is only three miles from Mont
| ceau-les- Mines and its seventeen thousand
| workmen would almost certainly become in
volved IN trouble if a general mining strike
should he ordered. or course. strike at the
| Creusot works would be disastrous 10 all the
! industries OF France which are connected with
the iron and steel trade and would be en-
| barrassng 10 the government, which gets

plies for the army and navy. AT Montceaules-
Mines there are about twelve thousand work
men, Of whom probably one-third have not been

EASY CITIZENS.

Visitors from abroad have with one voice
throughout the last fifty years or more COM
mented upon the inexhaustible patience and
tolerance of Americans with respect to abuses
which the people of other countries would not
allow to remain without the strongest of pro-
tests. And of all the kind hearted, good nat
ured non-kicking Yankees from Passama-
quoddy TO San Antonio. who can find the equals
of the Yankees of Gotham? Our NEWCOMERS

their voices. They prone to placid acqui-
escence. and rarely bestir themselves 10 smite
their worst enemies
But here and now is a true issue. real emer-
gency \ hard fight is on Save the city from
organized thievery now. or NewYork will sink
to depths of degradation lower than plummet

THE rAK EXEMPTION AMENDMENT.

The absorbing interest Of the municipal cam
paign should not cause voters 10 forget on Elec-
tion Day TO cast their ballots in favor Of the
proposed constitutional amendment concerning
the exemptions of property from taxation. Ii
is the only amendment 10 be passed upon this
year. and is designed 10 put an end 10 an abuse
of long standing which has grown 10 enormous
proportions. IL was introduced into the As
sembly 10y Merton f. Lewis. of Rochester. has
passed two legislatures and only remains 10
be ratified by the people. 1t provides that
hereafter no exemption of property from taxa
ton of any kind can be made except by general
law.
II has for years been the practice Of the legis-
lature 10 pass bills exempting particular proper
ties from taxation. Private institutions of all
sorts not included in the general exemptions.
which are not illiberal. have sought to escape
taxation by private bills. and hundreds of them
have succeeded. Each year batch of bills is
introduced 10 favor this school, that private
hospital and the other social club. One organ
ization prevails on good natured lawmakers,
and then all Others similarly situated feel IL
incumbent upon them 10 begin lOgrolng. and
there is no end 10 the process. The fact that
an institution is not engaged I'm making money
10 divide among its proprietors is coming 10 be
considered ample reason for freeing its prop
erty from any share OF the expense Of govern
ment for it's protection. People whose partic-
ular fad of charity does not appeal TO the public
find in tax exemption a convenient method Of
getting indirectly from the people money which
they could not get directly with subscription
paper Since 1893 Sl75O000oo of property in
this State has been made exempt from taxa
ton. and a considerable part of this has been
exempted by special laws.
Certain properties used for charitable and
educational purposes have long been exempt in
this State and will remain Possibly there
are others which should be added 10 this list
If so. they should he added by general law af-
fecting alike all institutions doing similar work
The proposed amendment will not interfere

the people may see fit 10 adopt. II will, how

payers with equally good claims.

ure of Washington's forces in 1874 and the ar
rival Of Lees in 1863 are compressed the trials
and struggles which have made us nation and
have gradually pushed our old frontier from the
valleys west Of the Susquehanna 10 the utmost
verge of the Pacific.
Humdrum as must seem the modern life OF
our old historic towns, such celebrations as that
at Carlisle go far TO inspire them with fresh in
terest and fresh vitality. Cultivatng, as these
revivals of local memories do. that sense OF To-
cality and continuity which is most lacking in
new and hastily settled countries, they have
positive and far reaching usefulness. Recalling
and cherishing a community's most stimulating
associations they excite thar genuine and solid
patriotism which is based on common historical
attachments and on a sense of common obliga-
tion TO the figures and traditions of the past

AN historic FRONTIER TOWN.

Little attention was attracted perhaps 10 the
celebration last Wednesday of the one hun
dred and hftleth anniversary OF the founding
of a once noted American frontier town. Yer
modest as was the celebration itself and dis
tant as are most Of the glories Of the Colonial
and Revolutionary outpost settlement which IL
recalled, few minor American centenaries have
proved rich in the varied and stirring his
torical associations they have evoked The
town about which these significant and sucges-
tive memories cluster is Carlisle the first settle
ment made under charter from the Penns. then
joint proprletors of the province of PennsyI-
vania in what has since become the beautiful
and fertile Cumberland Valley. Founded on
October %, 1751, Carlsle's struggling infancy
carries It back 10 a period when the dauntless
energy of the pioneer had yet TO penetrate the
wilderness which stretched between the Sus-
quehanna and the Ohio. The furthest Outpost
Of the Quaker colony il served its earliest years
as a centre of defence against the assaults of
hostile savages. Guarding one outlet toward
Fort Pitt and the Ohio. it became the base of
Washington's operations in 1894 for the sup
preston of the s0-called Whiskey InSurrectiOn
in Western Pennsylvania \ regular army post
for years, its military experiences only ended
with its occupation by General Ewell's Confed-
crate army corps in the days preceding the
battle of Gettysburg. and its bombardment on
the night of the first fighting at Gettysburg by
the light artillery of Stuart and Fitzhugh Lee
What drama of historical development the
one hundred and fifty years of CarlisleS history
suggest. Benjamin Franklin was one of it's first
visitors of note. coming In 1853 to draw treaty
of friendship with the Western Indians Two
years later Armstrong marched from Carlisle
10 win his signal victory at Kittanning over the
still warlike savages. In 1876 Carlisle raised
five companies for service in the Continental
forces and with the volunteers sent later went
the celebrated Molly Pitcher who, as every
schOolboy knows, took her wounded husbands
place behind one of the American guns AT Non-
mouth. "Molly Pitchers real name was Molly
Hays. She lies buried now in n Carlisle grave
yard. Many Hessans captured at Trenton were
sent 10 this frontier town for safe keeping and
Major Andre spent a short term of detention
there after his first capture in the early days of
the Revolution. With President Washington in
1894 came Alexander Hamilton, and the two
spent week preparing the four thousand troops
they had assembled for the long and arduous
march toward Pittsburg. Between the depart

the place, VI. Bouveri. is an extreme socialist,
who was elected few months ago because of
his pronounced socialist proclivities In case of
a strike he would probably play some such part
as that of the Mayor of McKeesport in the re-
cent labor troubles at that place.
Parliamentary consideration of the threatened
strike has brought TO the fore NJ. Basly, so
cialist Deputy who for the present aligns him
self with the Ministerialist party. He was for
merly a miner. and later a wine shop keeper,
and some six years ago was elected TO the
Chamber a representative of the more ex-
treme and violent socialists Like others of the
kind he just now finds il convenient TO play
into the hands of the Ministry. and in so doing
he is followed by his colleague from the Pas
de Calais, VI. Lamendin. 1t is not for mo-
menU TO he supposed that these and other Min
isterial socialists would continue TO support
the government if serious trouble should arise
at the mines. And what menace there has been
and is of trouble may he estimated from the
fact that a socialist organ in Paris. the Petit
Sou" has been offering Gras rifles to subscribers
as premiums at nominal prices. There are,
then the elements of a serious crisis, which,
whether il comes this week or in April next,
may well prove one of the most troublesome
problems which the Waldeck-Rousseau Min
istry of Republican Defence has had TO deal
with in all It's unprecedentedy long term of

CONVICT LABOR on ROADS.

The suggestion which was some time ago
made in these columns that able bodied inmates
of prisons and penitentiaries he set at work
building improved roads seems at last to be
acted upon 10 a considerable extent, and with
gratifying results. The cOnvicts in the State
prisons are rs a rule otherwise employed, but
those in charge of the penitentiaries have not
been able In provide work in prison shops for
the prisoners under their control, and so have
sought il outside. In eight or more counties OF
this State the pententiary prisoners are en-
ployed either at road building or at crushing
stone for road building. IL is not known that
any bad effects have been experienced from the
undertaking. while the good effects are numer-
Gus and obvious. Among the latter these are
conspicuous; The prisoners have the physical
and moral benefit OF healthful labor in the open
air; the prisoners are made to pay their way in
stead of being a heavy charge upon the COM
munIty: the construction Of good roads is pro
noted and the cost OF them is decreased; and
the number of prisoners is diminished, for
tramps and other sons of rest avoid counties
where committnl to the penltentiary means
stone breaking and road building. 1t may be
added that one OF the chief objections 10 the
system-the offensive parading Of convicts in
the public view-has been found groundless FOR
no one would take the penitcntiary prisoners
working on the roads 10 be other than ordinary
laborcrs.
There Is reason TO believe that this system
might prohtahly and properly he extended
throughout the State. and he applied 70 the in
mates OF StateprIsons we'll as OF penitentiaries
when other work fails. The prisoners might
also be employed AT repairing and maintaining
the roads after they are built. Most Of the
prisoners at Sing Sing are now at work. but IL
Is not long since most OF them were idle and
were seriously suffering. morally and physically
from enforced idleness. And yet within few
hours drive from Ossining are hundreds OF
miles Of roads that are In their badness re-
proach 10 the community and cause OF veXa-
tion and of actual pecuniary loss TO all who are
compelled TO use them. We do not mean, OF
course that counties and towns are 10 wait until
prisoners can he secured 70 build good roads
But whenever and wherever able bodied prison
ers are idle the reproach of bad roads is aggra-
waited twOfold. All roads should be made and
kept good and all prisoners who are able to
work should be kept at heslthful and profitable
work Those are two rules which should be
constantly observed. and between which an inti-
mate relationship is TO be found

A DELINoUENT FEALTF BOARD.

The Board of Health Of this city was on Mon
day pretty badly given away" by its own presi-
dent Mr. Sexton of Tammany Hall. The occa-
sion was the sending out Of a fire alarm by a
citizen who had observed vast volumes Of black
smoke pouring from building on Broadway.
The fremen came to the scene only 70 discover
that the building was not afre, and that the
smoke was produced by the burning of soft coal
in furnaces. The incident, by the way, was not
novel, il having occurred twice before within
the year in connection with that same building.
and the fact that soft coal is being used in that
building in violation Of law, at least that foul
black smoke is being emitted, is and long has
been well known 10 the policemen on that beat
as well as 70 the public.
The "give away" by Mr. Sexton consisted in
his naive declaration that up 10 the present
''time no complaint has been made against the
building for using soft coal without consuming
''the smoke. This is the reason why the depart
'ment has done nothing in the matter" II
would be difficult 10 conceive a more damning
indictment OF the Board of Health for ineffi-
cheney and delinquency. According 10 the presi-
dents own words the board will do nothing to-
ward enforcing the law and abating nusanees
unless citizens take the initiative. do the pre-
lminary work and prod the stall fed oxen OF the
board into reluctant activity. The board has a
numerous and well paid staff of sanitary in
spectors. What are they hired for with the
money OF the taxpayers Of this city. IL not 10
detect and report precisely such violations Of
law thisg
II Mr.. Sexton thinks private citizens should
thus do the work in this case his inspectors are
paid by the city 10 do. there is no reason why
the same principle should not be applied in other
cases His inspectors should not seize unwhole-
some food in the markets until complaint is
made by some citizen concerning each indi-
vidual banana and mackerel They should not
scrutinize the milk supply, nor enforce sanitary
laws in tenements. nor take steps for the sup.
preston OF a smallpox epidemic until com.
plants are made by private citizens The
health officers OF the port have no business 10
stop ships at Quarantine, detain suspicious pas
sengers and disinfect tainted cargoes unless
some citizen makes specific complaint that
some specific ship is importing contsgion. So
with the police and with all public servants
They ought simply to hold down chairs in theil
