about less desirable supply from which the
city is debarred? And if the Mayor really be-
lieves the supply for Brooklyn ana queens must
come from Long Island why does he not dlrect
all his efforts to that end and tell his commls-
sioners to drop their plans for getting 1t from
the Catskills at such enormous cost?
The Mayors talk about water rings hopeiessiy
hollow especially when we recall how aDoml-
nably the water department has been msman-
aged by his man Oakley and that the present
Tammany plan is to put Oakley's man Nc
Gowan into the Mayors chair for three years.
The way to provide Brooklyn and Queens with
water is certainly not to put the city under The
control of the manor the man of the man
who has so fiagrantly neglected their needs and
has permitted them to come to the verge or
famine while there Is a copious supply close at
hand which he could give them If he would.
Oakley has grossly neglected to provide water
for those boroughs: therefore, to secure the
needed supply, put Oakley or Oakleys man
into fuller power. Are to understand that
to be the Mayors logic?

SUBWAY MANAGEMENT.

The first year of the subways history having
been completed this week. officials of the Inter
borough company evincing satisfaction with
the results thus far attained. From their point
of view, no doubt, self-gratuation is warrant
able. A handsome revenue Is being derived
from the enterprise and its prestige has not yet
been impaired by q serious accident These,
however, are not the only aspects Of the subject
which the public has reason to regard, and
there is still much about the operation of the
underground road here which deservedly pro-
vokeS complaint
One of the most veXatious deficiencies Of the
management to-day is the lack OF an adequate
number of expresses. 1t not infreQuently hap
pens that two three local trains will arrive at
and depart from the Brooklyn Bridge station
while patrons waiting for an express. Under
these circumstances it is possible for a person
who takes the first northbound local to reach
14th-st., and perhaps the Grand Central Station,
sooner than if he boarded the first express. One
consequence of the delay is an occasional fail
urc to arrive at 42d-st. in time to connect with
outgoing suburban trains Another is such an
overcrowding of the cars that the wraps and
gowns of women from Brooklyn whose destina-
ton is an uptown theatre are often badly dam
aged. For such a state of things ten or twelve
months ago there might have been an excuse.
There is none now. The marlborough company
evil, which was needlessly prolonged last sum-
mer was the prevalence of an almost unendur-
able atmosphere in the subway. The expedients
EMPLOYED to mitigate the trouble were childish.
Had the problem of supplying fresh air been
faced sqliarely and dealt with energetcally re-
lief might have been afforded before the begin
ming of August. Mr. Bryan, Mr.. Hedley and
the engineers of the subway affirmed at short
intervals that they were studying the ques-
ton" 1t is now announced that report Of the
engineers will be ready in few weeks" Such
a statement is much like others with which
the public has grown familiar that it excites
smile Of skepticiSm
Before many months have passed it is hoped
that the judicial barriers now existing to an
award of contracts for new subways may be
removed. When they have been it is possible
that the Rapid Transit Commission may have
a chance to consider rival offers possessing
nearly equal merits. Then the shortcomings Of
the Interborough company during the year just
ended will call for official consideration with
reference to future undertakings.

THE RUSSIAN CRISIS.

The situation in Russia appears to grow
steadily worse. and there can be little doubt
that it is now more ominous than it has been
at any former time, even than it during
the desperate outbreaks Of January last. 1t
IS little short of political debacle. Party lines
are ignored. Traditional attitudes are for
saken- We do not, OF course. expect TO see
Pobedonostsen waving a red flag, or to hear
Gorky preaching autocracy. But without 60
ing to those extremes the most extraordinary
things conceivable are happening. Some of the
very foundations of the empire seem TO be
crumbling away.
These amazing occurrences make forecasts
futile. Nobody can tell what day or an hour
may bring forth. There have been rumors that
the Emperor is meditating and has prepared
for flight We can scarcely believe them and
yet ii would be rash TO say they are entirely
impossible. II there were danger Of a repeti-
ton of the French Terror his majesty might
well fiee though flight would mean abdication
and complete revolution. But, after all, it is
not to the Emperor that attention now most
turns Count White looms largest of all Rus
SLAMS upon the stormy horizon. He is TO this
conflict what Mirabeau to the opening
scenes Of the French Revolution. and must
hope that he will prove to be much more. If
lie is 10 be the authoritative head OF potent
and responsible Ministry he may be able to
calm tumultuous popular passions and TO guide
revolution back 10 loyalty
To achieve that however. it would seem to
be necessary for him 10 do much more than
has yet been done, and perhaps more than he
has hitherto been disposed TO do. for the ex-
tension of popular power in the government.
For the Russian appetite grows by what 1t
feeds on. year ago the proposed Douma
would probably have been accepted with re-
toicings as entirely satisfactory grant Now
1t is scornfuliy rejected by the thinking and ag-
gressive part Of the nation, for this wholesale
outbreak is more than anything else a serving
OF notice upon the Emperor that the Douma
and all the rest OF his concessions are Insult
c:ent and unsatisfactory, and are a mere provo
cstion to more extreme and violent demands
There is talk o. Count Wirte as Dictator. If
be were made Dictator, with power to grant

LAW AND RESPECT FOR LAW.

President Roosevelt chose prOpitious mo-
ment the other day in Little Rock for empha-
sizing his well known views on the necessity
of subordInating impulse to law The Gov
ernor of Arkansas, according to press dis
patches had made a more or less direct de
fence of lynch law in a tactless and vanglori-
Gus speech. in which he invited the President
to contemplate the Superlative virtues ana
glories of Arkansas civilization. Mr.. Roosevelt
cleyery rebuked the staggering executive when
he remarked in reply that he was fortunate in
being President of country where to praise

have often given rein to their passion for sum-
mary vengeance: but in calmer moments they
seldom ATTEMPT to Justify this redhanded resort
to mob violence. 1t may have been an I'M
pleasant duty TO expose the hollowhess OF the
logic used by Governor Davis on PLATFORM on
which he figured to some extent as an ofncial
host; but the President did a notable service
to law and order in brushing aside SUCH considr
eratfons and bluntly calling the Governors at
tention to the obligations of his Official OATH
This passing encounter may nave moved the
