Traffic Rules

After a serious study of the congestion in
the streets of New York. the authorities of
the big town have decided upon series of
regulations which are calculated, II strictly
observed enforced. to relieve the bad
condition to a material extent. They are
based chiefly on the fundamental rule of
the road. to turn to the right" This rule,
though known doubtless to every driver is
honored chiefly in the breach in many cities,
and it's violation in New York Is the caui,e
of much of the trouble. 1t is now conf
manded that all vehicles of whatever char
acter shall on turning corner observe the
right-hand-side rule strictly. Thus If turn
ing directly into the intersecting street to-
ward the right. the turn shall be made close
10 the curb. If the turn is made toward the
left the vehicle shall first cross the inter-
secting street until Its right-hand side Is
reached. when the turn shall be made to
the left. that the vehicle Is then at once
on the right-hand side of the street along
which it is to proceed. Ordinarily vehicle
which is to be turned into an intersecting
street to the left is driven diagonally across
the mouth of the street 1t is leaving and at
an angle across the street It 10 entering un-

The Debate on Panama.

The debate on Panama has been opened
in both houses of Congress. and presently
will be in full swing. In the very nature
of things however the opposition to the
sdministra tons course cannot long stand
upon mere criticism and faulttinding. Men
OF bilious temperament and carrying
great weight of words may relieve their
feelings by denouncing everything that has
been done. while others. like Mr.. Olney
who are exauistely sensitive. may find per
sonal comfort in simply hanging their
heads in shame. But bitter words ana
detected demeanor butter no parsnips
Something tangible and of practical value
must be forthcoming if the opposition is to
triumph What Of this nature has the OPP
position in stock?
We have to deal with definite situation
Panama has seeded from Colombia, has
set up a government of her own, ana that
government has been recognized not only
by the United States but by other foreign
powers. Panama is doing business in her
own name and has her own flag. with
this new government we have negotiated
canal treaty and the instrument to be eff
fectiye ONLY awaits ratification by the Sem
ate of the United States. Does the opposi-
ton propose that the United States shall
now exert itself to overthrow all this; that
the Senate shall reject the treaty; that we
abandon Panama to the reyenges of Co.
Iombia. and. confessing to perfidy on our
own part. play the sneak? If that is the
proposition It should be put in so many
words and openly advocated If there are
convictions that measure up to the deliver
ances we are hearing those who possess
them should have the courage of them. Let
them be put in due form and supported.
There is something amusing In the taunt
that republican administration is now the
champion of secession. If that is true who
have we as the champions of coercion? The
father of John Sharp Williams died in bat
tie at the head of his men fighting for the
cause of secession in the United States,
and some of the most eminent of the demo-
cratic members of the United States SEN
ate were gallant soldiers in the confederate
army. Are these gentlemen now convinced
that secession as a principle is wrong and
should never be countenanced anywhere?
Are they now denying to the Panamans
what they once claimed for themselves? OF
course there is no analogy between the two
cases. The subject should be left to those
ladies in Texas who passed some ironical
resolutions the other day founded upon
emotions rather than history or argument.

The Viaduct Street SubWaYs.

1t is evident from the efforts already made
by the Commissioners to secure the best OBJ
tainable information on the subject of
that the citys equipment incidental to the
new railroad terminal shah be in every way
up to the capital standard. Three streets
within the city limits are to pass under
the tracks. Fl, X and L and Florida avenue
will also be covered at the point of inter-
section. The last-named. however, will re-
quire but a short subway, while that at
H street will be of unusual length. Indeed.
the officials who have just reported to the
Commissioners on the subject state that
they were unable to find a subway Of this
character which even approXimated the
length of that for H street This thorough
fare Is of Importance now and when the
terminal structure is built it will acquire
an even greater value in connecting the
ton of the city. The travel through The
subway. it is assured. will be very heavy
and IL is essential that the walls should be
clean and dry and the space beneath the
great width of tracks well lighted. As far
as possible natural illumina ton is prefera-
bic. but even with the use of prisma tic
glasses in gratings there will be need to use
ton of the subway even in the daytime
The best materials. the best workmanship
and the latest devices to insure the public
safety and comfort should without gues-
ton be required in this connection.

tn it reaches the right-hand side of the

til II reaches the rfght-hand side Of the
latter some distance from the corner. to
the confusion Of all rule-observing drivers.
Another excellent rule Is that all vehicles
shall halt with the horse headed in the
legal direction. This Is to avoid the con-
fusion attendant upon the diagonal cross
ing of a street to make the shortest cut to
a stopping place. Under the new rules the
carriage must proceed along the right-hand
side to a point below the stopping place
and then turn over and go back to the
proper place Slow-moving vehicles are to
keep to the curb-side of the street. while
the lighter vehicles must as far as possible
use the middle section of the thoroughfare.
OF course locally the traffic problem is
far from being as difficult as 1t is in New
York. Nevertheless. it is well that the
tonal road rules. which are clearly de-
fined in the police regulations. should be
strictly observed. The fact that the streets
OF this city are broad and the travel COM
paratively light does not warrant incon-
siderate or Illegal procedure. There should
be at least one city in the United States
where the street users follow the law I'M
questioningiy. a matter Of course. Even
though there is no dense crowding of vehi-
cles. single reckless or Indifferent driver
sterpation widely. Especially are the cor
ner-cutters to be feared. A few arrests.
whether the offenders are drivers or chauf-
feurs. followed by adequate punishments
would emphatically note the fact that
Washington has rules which all street
users are bound to respect.

What About CrekerP

When Richard Croker comes sailing home
again will he demand TO be heard in the
New York situation as respects the next
preside ncy:
Everything in Tammany circles is Murphy
now. Everybody. friend and foe, wants to
know how the new leader stands on this
that and the other matter. Is a working
arrangement between him and David B.
Hin impossible? Will he of his own &C
cord. and ignoring Mr.. Hill. commit Tam
many to Judge Parker and use his in
fiuence toward sending Parker delegation
from the state to the next democratic ma
well affected toward Mr.. German. and will
try to advance the interests of the Mary
land senator? These questions are heard
