NC CANAL ABANDONMENT.

ea He Legislature would not radfy the Governors canal bargain
with the Lehigh Valley in any shape. 1t took no STOCK III
the alleged benefits for the State and the municipalities
from this contemplated wiping out of canal Navigation forever
in northern New Jersey. 1t declined to put the state OF record
in this age of canal revival and canal building, as retrogress1ve
and as willing to barter the States birthrght for a mess OF pot.
tage. The canal bill, with or without the amendments to It. was
defeated in the Assembly yesterday by deliberate action. mat the
bill got some votes was not due to any merit in it, but only to the
powerful interests that backed the bill. This was virtually al
administration measure, too, since the terms of the bill had been
prepared by the Governor and were practically his own But
Democrats as well as Republicans could not consent to an act
which they regarded as a betrayal of the State. When people
reflect upon the origin of the canal bill in the tentative agreement
made last year by the Governor and the representatives of the canal
lessees they are led to wonder that an act of State policy OF such
great magnitude should have been so lightly entered upon. 1t
shows an egotism of Judgment in public affairs perhous to vital
interests of the State. For another year at least the Morris canal
is safe from the predatory interests and in another year the people
of New Jersey will have, what they never yet have had, definite
information about the canal affairs and about the practcabl1ty OF
preserving it intact, either under State or private corporate man
agement, for operation as a carrier of our coal supply and a cheap
means of transportation for mandatory and other industrial
interests in the towns and cities along the canal line.

THE STATE APPROPRIATIONS.

III HE annual and supplemental appropriation bills passed by
the Legislature carry a total of So 1,224.68, which is a
net increase of $~66719915 over last year. The annual bill
for the States expenses for the fiscal year beginning November
/ next totals $6,514, 1850, an increase of 81, 03S,24715, while the
supplemental bill, which is to exc out the present years expenses,
amounts to 1885, 46918, a decrease of S371,048 from last year. The
extraordinary appropriations as distinguished from those for or
binary purposes foot up $1,715955 for both bills. 1t is not the
size of a general appropriation bill but the items thereof that
need to be criticised, for the total may be swelled by some emer-
gency demand, such as the 100000 required last year to repay
the collateral inheritance tax under a decision by the courts.
Large and costly State improvements that may be absolutely
necessary also swell the total. The extravaganza of an appropria-
ton bill is usually found in its miscellaneous items, such as the
-c9st of commissions and fayors handed out to this and that in
terest. And this gives point to the necessity for the work of an
efficiency commission to investigate the departments of the State
government, find out wherein they lack efficiency, to what extent
they are overoffoered, where the economic leaks are, and to make
recommendations to the next Legislature.

COURTEOUS CONDUCTOR.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Notwithstanding the continued abuse
melted out to the street car conduc-
tors and motormen there are some men
occupying these positions who are the
most courteous gentlemen that I have
met In all my travels. About midnight
last night I had occasion to board a
Broad street car going south. The rain
was coming down in torrents and the
car was packed with returning theatre
goers, who foresaw an imminent
drenching before they reached their
destination.
The conductor Of this car not only
stopped 1t in the most convenient
places for the patrons to alight, but in
addition went to a great deal of trouble
asking each person for the street and
number. at which they wished to stop,
n then stopping the car at that spot.
I realize that there are many evils in
connection with the street railway sys-
tenn, but 1t is only just that one should
render unto Caesar those things which
are Caesars" There Is n conductor
and a motorman at least who have the
heartiest thanks of about fifty New
arkers for their courtesy. ven though
it was in the line of their duty.

THE VIRTUAL END OF A COSTLY STRIFE.

TN ORMAL announcement of the end of the British coal strike
cannot be expected until some time next week, as the
miners votes will have to be counted, but it will probably
find hundreds of thousands of them back to work. This terrific
industrial war has brought idleness to 100000 men, about half
of whom received no aid from trade funds and were thrown upon
charity, and with many at the point Of death from starvation
and food prices rising beyond the reach even Of those drawing
strike benefits, human endurance has broken under the strain. A
vast sum has been lost beyond recovery and it will take months
of treless industry for the nation to catch up with it's needs.

Only onee in six years does March
25 come on Monday. a fact of which
Lee O%ttolengui, manager of the Shu-
bert Theatre, was reminded on Mon
day evening. when there was presented
at the door an orchestra seat ticket
bearing the correct combination of day
OF the week and day of month, but
which was of a different color from
that regularly used for orchestra seats.
The ticket proved to be n issued
six years ago by the old Shubert Thea
tire, in Washington street, Incorporated
by Sam S. and Lee Shubert, and which
was under the management of Harry
M. Hyams.
Maxwell Hornell, doorkeeper at the
Shubert Theatre. refused to accept a
pasteboard SO distinctly off color and
referred the presenter to the box Of
flee.
Where did you get this?" asked Mr..
O%ttolengui.
Il bought it at the box office Of the
Shubert Theatre" he replied.
We'll, that must have been several
years ago. and it is not good now"
declared the manager.
why not? Isn't this the Shubert
Theatre and isn't this March 25?"
Eyes. you're In the right theatre all
right and this is the twenty-fifth, but
that is not our ticket. Still, I will ex-
change 1t for you and Mr.. Ottolen-
gui handed the man with the blue
ticket a coupon for an orchestra seat
from which he might view the kinema-
color pictures of the Durbar.
"Of course I'll have to frame the
blue one," remarked the manager of
the latter day Shubert playhouse. But
do you know that isn't the only
of those old tickets that have been
brought in. Only the other day a
woman actually had the nerve to ask
US to refund 50 on one of them calling
for a box e and was indignant be-
u her request was refused"

LEGISLATIVE WORK FULLY COMPLETED.

1N HE work of the Legislature will not be ended until after
the two houses shall have met next week to pass upon the
possible vetoes by the Governor. The fact that the Legis-
lature will be in session at the expiration of five days from the
time passed bills were placed in his hands makes it mandatory
upon the Governor to act upon them within that period, so the
volume of the seasonal laws will be complete when the Legisla-
ture adjourns sine die next week, as no more bills will be intro
duced. This early completion of the legislative work insures a
more prompt publication of the laws passed during the session.
In former years one cause for delay of publication was the hold
ing of passed bills by the executive long after legislative adjourn
ment. Governors Fort and Voorhees,, however, strictly construed
their constitutional duty and disposed of bills within the five days.

UNWORTHY OF A STATE SENATE.

TN N act d~iscreditable to the intelligence of members of
IA the Republican majority in the Senate was the impulsiye
passage of the bill, defeated in the Senate a few days ago,
making it mandatory on the Common Council to vote extrayagant
appropriations to the Board of Works, a bill protested against by
all the official representatives of Newark and reprobated by New
ark public sentiment. The alleged reason for this extraordinary
turnabout makes the act Of the Senate appear in an even worse
light. The people look to the Senate, more than to the House,
for deliberate and logical action, and this act was without any
dehberation and was destitute of logic.

WOMEN TO FIGHT THE ECONOMIC BATTLE.

MAJ AYOR SHANK, of Indianapolis, who claims to have saved
W his townsmen $4,000 on potatoes since he started to
undersell the commission men five months ago, is not
indulging in empty fattery when he tells the women of New York
that they must fight the economic battle. Men are too busy
making money to take thought how their wives shall spend it to
the best advantage, Women, too, are better bargain drivers by
nature. Mr.. Shank has consented to help New York housewives
organize for reduction of food prices and will be able to give them
some valuable advice for a start, but they should soon be able to
handle the situation by themselves.
