Wore particularly beeause since he lins been in office he has made the most persistent efforts to have the largest possible additions mado. to the clly revenue, not only-by an increase of the rates of saloon licenses, but by a large increase fn the nuinber of trades and professions that should pay a liberal Neense fee. If he has not urged recently that the rates of saloon licenses be hicreased with reference to an Increase In the polleo force, it-hns been because the inerense of those linenses 3 proposed ns beeome necesaary to enable the city to avold w reduce tion of the present puties force. He states the present condition of affairs tobe: that In 1880 and in 1881 the city, by eniploylng funds accumulating from savings and receipts of former years, was able to ny» propriate the amount of the present yenr's expenditures, they boing redttced to the low- est sum, These extraordinary funds are, however, no longer nyailable, and the elty for 1883 must depend exclusively on the in- come from taxes and licenses, The present valuation of taxable property and the rey- enue to be expected from Meenses will not produce within $300,000 of the amount of Jast year’s appropriations. ‘There Is, then, certainty of that much deficiency even ff the exponditure be limited within tho approprin- tlons of Instyear. What will the eltydo to meet this deficiency? The Potice, the Fire, the Public Works, and the Wealth Depart. ments were reduced last year to the lowest possible sum, The improvoments ordered called for $600,000 ns the city’s share, gnd the elty could only appropriate $200,000, leaving that much necessary work undone, Mr. Gurney wants the saloon Iicenses in- creased suficiently to derivo $250,000 or $300,000 from that source; but he also wants the money thus procured to bo used to make up deticlencfes of revenue for miscellaneous appropriations. But how does ho oxpect to get tho Council to double or treble thesaloon leenses tomuke good anticipated deflcloncies in genernl expenses?” For the snke of pro- viding more protection for lifeand property— so ‘greatly needed—tho Counell might get their courage up to the point of increasing the saloon licenses enough to provide for the support of 250 more policemen. But will they do It merely to furnish the Controller a quarter of a million extra to spend on gzen- ern! objects, leaving the clty another yoar with wholly inndquate police protection? Doubtful, to say. the feast, ee THE ENGLISH “AGRIOULIURAL REVO- LUTION." Since the passrge of Gladstone's Irish wh, Jond reform in Great Britain is raptdly as- stuning the form of a great agricustural rov- olution. With the nature ond operations of the Lrish Land bill the public is already ant- fidlently familiar. ‘The details ofthe new moyertient among tho English farmers, through an organization known ns the Farm- ers’ Alliance, to obtain legislative remedies for thelr grievatces have also been printed in Tie TmpuNEe, nud now come the Scotch farmers, who are taking advantage of the En- giish alliance to press thelr claims, ‘They have entered upon thelr campaign with great vigor, and thelr representatives in Parliar ment will not only support the English bill, which will bo Introduced at the forthcom- Jug’ session, but will -at tho enrllest opportunity Introdned 1 bill of thoi own, re- lying upon English and Irish support to earry It through, Meanwhile, Smalley's London dispatch of yesterday says, “the Inndlocds ara at stgss tu know wiint to do, but they are quite conylnced that resistance Is out of the question, and that It would be better to come to terms with the farmers than enter upon a strugeie In whteh the lat- ter could not fall to win,” 2 The great mass of the Euglish farmers have heretofore supported the ‘Tory or Land- oerncy party.

Lord Hartington, Liberal leader, Mr, Goschen, polittenl economist, Mr, Catrd, ngrl- cultural writer, and Mr, Ginistone, the head of the Liberal party, have recognized It, and within the past few weeks have devoted thomselves to Its public. consideration, ‘Though these spenkors differ iy thelr views of tha refornis which are needed, thoy aro atleast agreed upon the belief that it wil hot be a question of party polloy, but one of natlonal necessity, ‘The London «Zines, whose propristor is a landlord, also recog. nizos It, and though {t gives hints but vague. ly of what may be tho outcome ft declares that no pollticinn or statesman ean now speak in publio without having hts say:on ngricultural distress, its causes and {ts remes ales, on the consequences of American yu petltlon, on the. digastrous results of bad seasons, on the peculiarities of English land- tunure, and of the existing relution between lundlord and tenant.” Niet ‘Lhe tealiniony of some of these spenkers Is of extreme Snterest, Mr, Gludstona’ est! aiates that ong hundred and twenty millions of farming capital (in our money, $600,000,- 000) have been destroyed by a succession G° untoward seasons, Mr, Fowler, M.

In that direction 838,000 acres of corn and £28,000 ncres of green crops have boon absorbed, nnd an annual return theres from of £8,000,000 sterling hins consequently dlsappenred.” Aud this loss tho Jtmee ex- plains to consistof “high farming,” whleh means sultably buildings, machinery, tmple- inents, capital sunk in dratning and in Inanures--# Joss spread over a mililon eres, Mr. Calrd does not tay muelt stress upon American competition, and prefers to charge the loss to. the seasons, the exeess of rain, ant the deficiency of sun, These, however, eainot be the only causes, since Amorican agrteulture Is exposed to the same conditions and thrives, even to the ex- tent of competing with tho results of English Agriculture, “Uvon tha subject of the rela- tlons of Intidiord and tenant he speaks quite freely, and urges that the tenant ts clearly entitled to his improvements, and that “tho Jaw should establish a presumption in favor of the tenant's title to compensntion for un- exhausted improvements and should disal- low all contracts which tend to mpench that Atte.?? wh these things are straws showing which way the wind blows, and thelr aggregate tendency induces the Vhacs to affirm em- bhatleally that the great question of land re- form all over Creat Britain 1s onb which will soon claims hearing and oceuny the atton- Uon of Parliament to theexelusion of mercy political matters.

But Tun Trinune opposed the granting of ahy further subsidy in any shape on tho brond ground that it is not tho business of Government to build ratironds for the benefit of corporations, beenuso other Pacific rail- roads would certainly bo built without sub- sldy If thore was suflicient domand to make them profitable, and because they were not needed if they would not pay. ‘The views matntalned by Tue Trinusr and othors act- ing with it pravalled., Col.

Shannon, Chief Justice of tho grent ‘Territory of Dakota, were not hedged about by the United States Marshal and all his deputies, the army and the navy, and pro- tected, as it were, by tha red, white, and blue folds of the American flag. These gentlemen of the Yankton bar charge that. Mr. Shannon is“ generally dls. courteous, overbearing, and soften arbitrary in the extreme,” and that ho “ repeatedly In. sults and abuses attorneys aud parties In open court without Just cause or excise!” We certainly have a right, in behalf of Judge Shannon, to dumand that this charge be mace more speeitic. It 1s ensy to charge that adudge ts“ overbearlng and discourtuaus.” But Inwhnt particular? Mas Judge Shane non, for example, ever ordered au attorney who didi’t know what he was talking about to sit down, and. when he refused directed the Marshal to knock ihm down ona chair? Every Judge knows from netual experience that nothing is more common than for au attorney to make mincetent, so to speak, of Als client's case until In the Interest of Jits- feo the nprlght Judge Is bound to interfere, But nothing more enrages a stupid attortisy thairto by proven in ngs In open court, ‘The gentlemen of the Yankton bar admit In tho outset that Judge Shannon “is gen- erally g courteous and afable gentleman out ofcourt,” but that ‘on tho Bench he is dis-. courteous,” ote, Now, everybody knows by observintion that thera are leglons uf nttor- Heys who appear, vory respuctable nutil in an evil hour thoy rlge to adilress the Court, whereupon It inunedtately becomes evident that they were intended by natire for hod- enrriers, or shoymakers, or second-class car- penters, but never for Iwyers.

Itls charged that Chieé-Justics Suannon “soldom fails to actively espouse the cause of tho progeention in orlminal trials.” Well, itis raroly the case that the Judge and tho prosventor together are a match for the teclinicalltles of the Inw In favor of tho os- enpeoterlminnls, Do tho gontlemen of tho Yankton bar vainly imagine that thoy ean sttecead In removlag a Judge on the ground that he isin favor of tho convietlon of criin- Inala? ; . ‘Tho next charge ts more surlous, It Is al- leged that Wo tol Peter C.
