THAT S1x-TRAoK TIADUCT.

There may or may not be significance in the
fact that scheme for a six-track viaduct
southwark from the Harlem is being talked
about so soon after the grant Of franchise to
the company which proposes to build the Port
Chester road. The officers Of the Port Ches-
ter company have for years frankly avOwed
their intention Of capturing as large a share
as possible Of the suburban patronage of the
New Haven road. Besides, IL the promise OF
a better service than that afforded by the old
company should be realized the threatened
rivalry would become serious matter It is
too soon, Of course to determine whether or
not the new line would give the public greater
satisfaction than the old Nobody can yet say
how extensive will be the improvements made
under Mr.. Mellens direction in the next five
years. 1t is not too soon. however for the
New Haven company to show greater activity
in its preparations for meeting the competition
of which there is now a rather definite assur-
ance.
There have been repeated announcements of
what it intended to do. It has been said. for
instance, that electric traction would be adopt-
ed on the branch which DIVORCES from the main
line at New Rochelle and ends at the Harlem
River. 1t has also been predicted that extra
tracks would be laid on this branch and that
the roadbed would be adapted to higher speeds
than can be safely attempted there now. II
these rumOrs accurately represent the inten-
lions of the company, the time cannot be far
distant when 1t will begin to give them practi-
cal effect
Still another provision which it must make
is for getting its passengers downtown after
they reach the Harlem River. The hackers OF
the Port Chester road, whose terminus will be
close beside that of the New Haven branch
line, have hoped that a connection might there
be made with. a subway. In fact, Il has been
proposed to run through trains from Port Ches-
ter to the Battery If the proper facilities were
found south Of the Harlem. II the subway
should not be built. or If the Port Chester com
pany should secure the exclusive privilege OF
entering it, patrons OF the New Haven SUBJ
urban trains would be compelled TO use other
facilities. At present they are obliged to take
the Third avenue elevated road. IL as has
been suggested, a bridge should be thrown
across the East River near He'll Gate and
tracks should be extended from that pOint 20

station of the Pennsylvania road would give
New Haven trains access TO the heart of tho
city. A slightly better route would ne P,r

fore that the idea OF constructing one orip-
mated either with the New Haven companv or
with promoters who hope to interest that cor

talks about 1t is a civil engineer OF the Con-
meeting Railway Company. which u supposed

THE CASE FOR HOOK MoUyTAJv.

The arguments in favor Of the pending meas
ure for the preservation Of Hook Mountain Ger
talnly seem convincing. The Legislature passed
the bill by an almost unanimous vote II has
been earnestly supported by men Of all parties
ana by the foremost public spirited Organiza-
lions. 1t proposes wrong or hardship to no one.
1t calls for no expenditure of public funds. 1t
gives assurance, through private muniacence. Of
a great and perpetual benefit to the people Of
the state. Seldom has there appeared a meas
ure IN favor of which so much and against which
so little is justly to be said.
we have spoken of it as a measure for the
preservation Of Hook Mountain. It is mucb
more than that, of course; but the Hook Moun
tain feature is the one against which all the
opposition is directed. The few opponents Of the
Dill IN and out Of the Legislature have had moth
ing to say against the rest Of It, They are
quite willing to have the rest Of the scheme Gar
rled out The bill provides for the extension Of
the Palisades Park by the addition Of fifteen
miles To ten miles of it no objection is made
1t Is to the five miles of Hook Mountain that
a few interested men object. They do not want
that mountain saved. They want it defaced
spOliated and destroyed.
That is the situation. The question IL whatber
the state at no cost to itself shall have Hook
Mountain preserved as the nOblest landmark on
the lower Hudson, and shall, also at no cost to
Itself, have these other ten miles added to the
Palisades Park, or shall suffer the mountain to
be destroyed. and at the same time lose the
offer of that park extension. There would seem
to be no doubt as to the answer which the NH
lie interest requires.

Of the Reed system OF rules and in part 70 the
decay of the intense spirit Of craftsmanship
which dominated politics before the old sec
tlonal lines were broken down by the Bryan
free silver campaign of 1895. Both House and
Senate are now less contentious and less ex-
citable bodies. and both have learned to drop
petty politics more or less when dealing with
routine legislation. The change is significant
and welcome. If Congress can pass by July /,

Governor Higgins's conscientious scrutiny Of
bills and his refusal to be "stampeded'' by ap-
pearances have saved the state from what might
have proved a serious blunder at Niagara. The
bill which he vetoed certainly did not restrict
the amount Of water which could be taken from
the river, and there was a chance that 1t doubled
the existing grant The incident is a reminder
of the danger Of passing bills in a rush and
assuming that measure should have the sup
port of all good men because some person Of
excellent intentions proposes IL.
