New-York tribune., 1905-02-09
1T is to be hoped that it will be In every way
successful
RATE LEGIsLA TToN IN THE HOUSE.

From some points of view it might seem
rather absurd for the House of representatives
to pass without adequate debate a manifestly
imperfect railway rate bill, when the senate
will have little time to consider 1T ana there is
small prospect of its enactment into law. FROM
another point of view, however, it Will appear
that such course may serve useful purpose
The passage of bill through the House will
tend to concentrate the discussion and facili-
tate agreement upon a measure TO be enacted.
Nothing promotes the solution of problem
more than the enunciation of some definite prop
osition for critics to try their wits upon. The
IDEA of railroad regulation is by no means new,
but neither people nor lawmakers have for long
given that attention to the subject which in
sures the saturation of the public mind with
trustworthy knowledge. ready for sudden crys-
talliZation into action.
Many elements of the problem are new to
public consciousness. Recent Investigations
have made conspicuous the private car evil and
some other insidious forms of rebate. While it
is generally recognized, even by railroad men
themselves, that remedies must be found for eX-
listing abuses, some of which cannot be stopped
by the railroads. even if they wish, without ruin
Gus loss to rivals, thought on the subject is in
state of fermentation. Dozens of plans are
proposed Every political scientist and states
man has different notion about the hundred
and one details of any workable plan, and no.
body at present who tries to discuss the sub
ject knows whether he is speaking to the ques-
ton really at issue or engaging in academic
speculation.
Action by the House will define the issue. We
shall have a single measure. though it may be
imperfect instead of a dozen, and it will COM
mand attention as would no draft from COM
mittee and suggestion from outside. We
shall have a framework on which labor can be
centred until finished structure is achieved.
The bill will be subjected from all sides to de.
structive and constructive criticism. 1t will be
possible to reach something like a consensus of
opinion upon It's merits and defects Standing
as definite pending proposition which has re-
ceived the assent of one house of Congress, it
will induce those who think 1t too radical and
those who think it too conservative to get to-
gether. It's practical features can be thrashed
out by experts, and we may reasonably expect
the enactment of a really well rounded measure
at the next session.
Therefore the pushing of the Townsend -Esch
bill to vote in the House will, we believe he
wise, and is not fairly to be interpreted as the
mere jugglery Of politicians who want to an
pear to do something without really doing IL
There may be members of the House who are
ready to make such sacrifices to public senti
ment, but, whatever their motive, their action
though 1t may not Immediately result in q new
statute, does mean progress in the work of wise
rate legislation

4 QUEER RESTRICTION.

If the Albany correspondents of the New
York papers are well informed the Elsberg Dlil
in its amended form would practically compei
the site for the new County Courthouse 10 De
selected within the territory bounded by olh-
ave, University Place, 12th-st. and l4th-sr
Moreover. the bill is said TO be strongly sup
ported and to have a fair chance OF passing.
But what are the advantages of the restrictoh :
So far as we have observed, no light has peen
thrown on that question. Plausible though IN
sufficient reasons might be given Tor bulldlhS

Proximity to the building occupied by the APP
peIlate Division may seem desirable TO some
persons.
Various localities have found advocates VINO
were ready to explain their choice. 1t woulu
bo interesting to hear somebody rehearse the
srrnassing merits of the limited secuoh 10
which the Elsberg bill apparently confines the
commission Possibly it possesses advantages
which have been hidden from all but a few as
cerning eyes. If so, we should be glad TO nave
Them revealed TO US. 1t would be mean 10 re-
tain a monopoly of knowledge which ought 10
be freely shared. and If the Senate continues 10
manifest no curiosity we hope the Assembly
will refuse TO follow its example

THE GERMAN COAL STRIKES.

The strikes of the coal miners In Germany
, -, tho way to settlement. This is parucu-
1arlv desirable because they were so genera a'
n threaten a complete paralysis Oh usu!'
and that is something Germany could i'll aholu
sooiro that II is only Just emerging from
neriod of painful and costly industrlai uepreS-
sion. There is no concealing the fact, moreover
that the strikers have enjoyed the more or less
o,1+snoken sympathy of the great mass OF lhe
nuh1ic and of q strong majority or the lmperlau
Parliament That is because 1T is Wel Known
that conditions of employment IN German nlHe9
arc hard and wages are low, and also because
the mine operators were Thought 10 nave as
sumed an unwarrantably arbitrary atutuue'
They positively refused to discuss or to consider
in any way the grievances and demands OF he
men until the men had returned to work and
suhnitted themselves absolutely to the old con-
ditions 1t was thought, and is thought that
such an attitude was indefensible, on grouhus
either of morals or of sense.
ApnarentIy il is considered indefensible on
legal grounds for the government has now prac-
,caiiv interviewed in the strike in behalf OF the
strikers-that is TO say, it has framed and is
pressing to enactment q bill for the compulsory
correction of the major evils complained of by
the men This 1t does upon the ground that
the mine operators are not absolute owners but
the mere holders Of concessions from the state.
! In such case it is held they owe duties as wen
as possess rights, and the state may properly
! compel the fulflment of those duties among
which are the humane treatment OF employees
and the hearing of requests for better conditions
of labor There is in Germany a state system
/ of inspection and control of mines by bureau
/ of the Department Of Commerce, and the indus
/ try is thus upon a somewhat different and less
: independent footing than in the United States
! This attitude Of the government has deprived
the strikes of much political significance. The
/ Social Democrats, the Radicals and the Chris
tian Socialists have wed with one another in ex
pressing sympathy with the strikers; but the
! Centrum itself has been equally outspoken, and
Of course at its demand the government was
constrained to act. It is expected that the
Prussian Minister Of Commerce, whose course
during the strikes has been somewhat vacillat
ing. will be compelled to retire from Office
Otherwise the political situation will be little
/ affected.

HOTELS on THE WATER.

Cheap homes for a limited number Of the poor
have been provided by John Arbuckle, the cof-
fee merchant, and his action is TO be COM
mended. At West 21st-st., on the Hudson River,
he has stationed two vessels, which may not
he sufficient for a large number of the needy
but which will undoubtedly do much good. The
cost of living on these craft is moderate. The
ships are well heated, and the whole scheme ap-
pears 10 be wisely arranged
This plan does not contemplate any provision
for those out of work and unable to pay for
lodgings and meals; but the rates have been
established at so low price that the two hulls
will be filed as long as they used for the
purpose In the season of summer heats the
ships will be used for excursions down the Bay.
For the winter season women are cared for at
an expense not exceeding 50 so week The
men who will be received will be required to
pay SO 80 a week
This Is Q modest and practical effort for the
benefit OF those whose earnings are small, and

GAYNOR AND GREENE.

The Department of Justice has won n graft
fying victory in the decision of the British
Privy Council in the case of Gaynor and
Greene John F. GaynOr, formerly treasurer
of the New-York Democratic State Committee,
and Benjamin d. Greene were contractors for
the Savannah River Improvement, and were in
dicted on the technical charge of obtaining
government money under false pretences in
connection with the gigantic frauds for which
Captain OberIin NJ Carter was sent to prison.
Gaynor and Greene fed to- Canada. Extradi-
tion proceedings were begun in Montreal. but
they went to Quebec, where they secured lnfli-
ential LAWYERS close to the local authorities and
found the courts favorable to them. They were
taken back TO Montreal. and while their case
was before the court there Quebec judge res
cued them by a writ of habeas corpus, and they
have since been living in luxury at Quebecs
best hotel.
1t is unnecessary for Americans to comment
on the attitude of the Quebec authorities. The
Privy Council has done it more effectively and
with better grace in its caustic criticism of JUS
tice Carons action Neither is it proper to
anticipate the decision of the Montreal court
before which the question of extradition will
in due order be tried. 1t is to be hoped that
the Attorney General will succeed in showing
the court that these partners of Carter should
be sent home and that they may be punished
as he has been punished. They are such slip
merry rogues however and are able to COM
mand such financial and legal resources that
the government should be upon Its guard lest
tbey fit to some other refuge, now that the
priyy Council interferes with the further eX-
tension of the cordial hospitalities of Quebec.
New-York tribune., 1905-02-09
4 NEW RIVER AND HARBOR POLICY.

rrt,o TIo,sa Committee on Rivers and Harbors
As about to report an appropriation Dill uIa"h
on new and emnenty sensible theories or river
and harbor Improvement Under the leadership
of Representative Theodore Z. Burton this com
,n,ttee has I'm recent years effectually freed it
self from the stigma under which 1t rested IN
the good old days Of pork hunting and log
railing" II has become intelligent, hard
working and conscientious body, and its laDors
have won-outside the ranks of the pork hunt
ers"-unlimited commendation; but the reform
which the committee now proposes quite dwarfs
its previous record of good works. for 1t has
hit upon a policy which If faithfully followed
viii give the government full value-and more
than full vaIue-for every dollar it appropriates
and strike a death blow at the log rolling
practices which have entailed so many scandals
and such profigate waste.
The committee proposes to squeeze the
water" so to speak, out Of all river and harDor
Improvement projects. and 10 put the work
hereafter undertaken on scientific rock bottom
basis. II the committees ideas are approved
the government will conine its aid hereafter
mainly 10 projects deserving enough to COM
mand generous State or local support. Congress
will vote sums for river and harbOr improve
rnents. 10 be expended only when the State or
municipality benefited joins in prosecuting the
work Thus in this years bill 100000 is ap-
propriated for the Improvement of the Della
ware River below Philadelphia, contingent upon
the expenditure Of an equal amount by the State
Of Pennsylvania, the city of Philadelphia or
some other agency. The sums OF 100000 in
cash and 100000 under continuing contracts
are appropriated for the improvement of Black
Harbor and the Niagara River. in New-York
contingent on the enlargement by the State of
the Erie Canal. Ohio gets $4,000 for lock and
dam No II in the Muskngum River, contingent
the expenditure Of 100000 by the State for
the improvement Of the Muskingum River and
Lake Erie Canal 4 dozen other contingent ap-
propriations are authorized. each involving some
measure Of self-help on the part Of the State or
community directly benefited.
The new plan has twofold advantage. In
the first place. il encourages States and cities
&c take g serious interest in the work done for
their benefit. At present the chief concern OF
locality is to get an appropriation; little or no
local interest is taken in the way the money is
spent or the results achieved through its ex-
penditure. Were each State or city called on to
contribute out of its own purse to local i'm
movements we should not hear half much
clanor for huge appropriations. Nor should we
see so much work undertaken far outrunnine
local needs and growth Under the contingent
appropriation policy the governments money
would go chiefly 10 localities wide enough
awake TO help themselves, and no improvements
