The Druids held many plants sacred,

doubt as to the identity of any of these
except the second (selago), which is

An Old. Fl shiOned Presi dent.

To THE EDIroR OF The SUN--Sir: Why
should THE Sun 90 persistently hold UP to
ridicue our esteemed fellow citizen Grover
Cleveland? Admitting that Mr. Cleveland
was guilty Of paying bis fare and that his
ideas OF the duties and the obi cations OF the
Chief Executive were rather crude and old
fashioned, that he did believe In enforcing
law and order with Federal troops instead Of
fostering. recognizing and advertising tho
mob leaders. Is it not time that he should b
permitted TO rest? Did he not faithfully and
honestly try TO do his duty according to his
lights?
Can we expect, In this advanced and siren
nous age, that he could have realized the
opportunities he had to nae the army and
navy for Standardization? Imagine the
United States Navy pounding it's bottom out
on the rocks and shoals Of Buzzard's Bay.
firing salutes and kicking up no end Of a row.
1t would have driven every nah out to sea and
spoiled the sport OF Mr.. Cleveland and his
neighbor, Mr.. Jefferson.
am afraid that Mr.. Cleveland so far for
got the dignity of his position to prefer
fishing to naval parades. 1t may be possible
that il was because fishing IL cheaper. He
could not wreck a battleship with a fishing
rod. and isn't it easier TO tell fish stories than
TO explain why the people should pay for a
senseless display and for repairs to our ships
caused by uncharted rocks and foolish flying
wedges?
Mr.. Cleveland seems to have preferred
duck shooting to sham battles between the
army and navy. Can il be possible that 1t was
because one charge for a big gun costs more
than all the powder and shot he could Use in a
season? Don't forget that he was 40 indis-
Greet AS to buy his ammunition like u plain,
everyday sportsman. Are we 10 be humili-
ated to the extent that we must admit that
our President did believe that u foolish waste
of the public funds was wrong and that the
, people might object!
II seems strange to US now that Mr. Cleve-
land should so far forget the dignity OF his
position as to attach himself to "A modest
| Eighth tender for his duck shooting

at least have the Dolphin. Msynower and

Cleveland was not up to date.

Wait for the "Object Lesson"

The only newspaper in New York which
defends the plans of the subway project
ors is the Nev York Times, and it makes
q case in their behalf which is creditable
to its ingenuity.
The argument of that paper, that any
attempt ITO dictate to the Rapid Transit
Commission what form Of tunnel may or
what must not be built is an outrageous
invasion OF the rights of that body, seems.
however, to be rather curious Does the
Times mean that the dictation must come
from the projectors; that the citizens
of New York who pay for the subway are
guilty of impertinence when they venture
to express an opinion on the subject?
That is, that the master must not find
fault with the servant?
Neither is the argument OF the Times
that tho anti-ditch agitation in the case
of Seventh avenue lacks any reason
able basis" sufficiently supported by its
allegation that there "the business is
nearly all retail in a very small way, v
and therefore the sacrifice for the general
benefit would be less than elsewhere.
Whether business is wholesale or retail,
small or great, has it not the same right
to protection against destruction by a
public enterprise? Evidently the Sew
enth avenue people are of that way Of
thinking. No more than the Broadway
people are they willing to tolerate a die
tated form Of tunnel" which will cause
years of obstruction to their avenue.
The Times says, finally, that under
Contract No. 2" the subway building in
Broadway below Ann street will be IAN
object lesson in the immediate utiliza-
ton of experience which Seventh ave-
nue. would do well to study Cndoubt-
eddy. If the contractors are able to show
New York, in the building of that sec
ton Of the subway, that the work has
proceeded without obstruction Of the
street and interference with traffic the
"anti-ditch agitation" ought to cease in
every part of the town. But that "object
lesson is not vet before the citizens. Let
us wait and see how Contract No. 2
turns out. An object lesson is q
demonstration, not an assumption.

In the trial of JOSEPH BARONDEss, in

questions on appeal must be the same.
BARoNpEsS was the manager Of the
Cloakmakers' Union. After strike in

ment was made, the employers agreeing
to discharge their non-uni0n men and
to grant the wage scale demanded. But
the men did not return to work. POPKIN
asked BARONDEss what the reason was
The answer was that PoPKIN had not
settled with BARoNDEss PoPKIN asked.

BARoNDEss answered, "You have got 10
pay me $500 to have your people back

agreed TO accept 500 PoPKIN gave
him a check for that sum. il wss part

money 10 distribute among tho striking
