GOOD PUBLIC REPORTS.

The reports of the board of public
works and of the city street super
visor were given In concise form In yes
terday mornings Tribune.
The board of public works report
shows that work amounting to Sl,l09,-
360lS was done under its supervision
and inspection last year. This work
ranged from the building of Jordan
bridge TO testing water pipes, improve
ment of the Jordan and Salt Lake
canal. repairs of street paving. building
the North Temple street aqncduct,
sewers and sidewalks, and of putting
in new street paving. This work was all
for the betterment and public improve
ment of the city, was we'll and honestly
DONE and the board has reason TO
congratulate itself and the people of
the city thereon.
new feature is recommended by the
board, in urging that the city should
protect itself against loss and DANA &c,
BY requiring payment to the munich
pality of stated amount per square
foot by persons applying for permits
TO excavate in the paved streets. The
deposit now required is unsatisfactory,
and the system in operation is the
cause of much confusion and expense
Therefore, the board recommends a
fixed charge.
The board also recommends that the
city provide for itself a plant for the
repairing of streets. which would be
a measure of efficiency and economy
Altogether it is frst-class report,
showing good work well done
The street supervisor shows an ex-
penditure in his jurisdiction of $140,-
l9415, including supervision, mante-
nance, cleaning the paved districts,
constructing and grading streets,

opinion on this question by eminent at.

pears. in fact. TO be an attempt To
revive by implication the old seditioD
law, which was so odious that it had
to be repealed
The court. in duashing the indIct-
ment, ruled that the statute upon which
il rested was not sufficient authority
for its promulgation, That is, there
was no law giving the court jurisdiction
Of such n case.
This is doubtless the end of that
whole foolish prosecution. 1t has been
said that there is no such thing as
indictng and trying whole people
To this it may fairly be added that
there is no such thing RS ibeling d
whole people. This procedure was
founded on the idea that the people OF
the United States had been libelcd by
the publication in the Indianapolis News
and in the New York World. The
prosecution against the Indianapolis
News came TO disastrous end last
year, and now that against the New
York World is disposed of in the same
way.
And so ends the spitcful, malevolent
folly of pretending that the people OF
the United States had been llbeled be-
cause certain matter was printed OF
more or less truth or probability. with
regard TO the early transactions IN
volving the Panama Canal, 1T is a lit

It was OF Lord North that Charles

Lord North has lost--a whole continent,
1t was Lord North's arrogance and arbl-
trary treatment OF the colonies mat no
doubt precpitated the Revolution ana

disruption between the people Of TINS
continent against the mother country, III
was on January IS that Lord North :
administration as prime minister OF
England began. and IL Was his attitude
on the tea tax that WAS one of the inn
mediate causes of the American war. III
was North's own bohst that ms a mem (,

IT has since been proven that North.
az carly as 1876. believed that the un-
yielding policy he was pursuing with re-
gard To the American colonies would end
i'm ruin TO the king and To the country;
yet. in the face OF the powerful opposl
tion OF Fox and Burke. he allowed his
own convictions to be overborne by the
obstnacy OF King Georges ultra Tory
purpose. In 177S he was forced TO a re-
nunclation of the right TO tax the colo
and In 1892, finding II impossible To carry
on the war any longer. he resigned.
When the news was conveyed To Lord
North In October. 1881, OF the surrender

OF your emolunents and at once reduce
YOU TO that state OF inslgnncance for
which God and nature designed you?"
When Lord North resigned the king
is said 70 have parted with him rudely,
without thanking him. adding. "Rcmem-

years OF his life he was totally blind
Those who were near Lord North In his

nights he would sometimes fall into very
low spirits and deeply reproach himself
for having. at the earnest desire OF the
king, remained in administration after
he thought that peace ought to have
been made with America"
