Crarx, Notary Public. i There is and will be some unavoidable fric- tion in the labor of extending the general plan of the city streets in width and direction over the new Washington of the city’s suburbs. Past neglect has permitted the growth of numerous settlements with narrow, short streets running in every direction. Considerations of expense in view of the uneven surface of the ground, and in view of the costly improvements which in places stand in the way, will prevent the ex- tension of the city streets with ramrod pre- cision into the surrounding county re- mote from the city. A high hill or @ deep gully or a costly residence will justify deflections from the straight line, since the city cannot afford to emulate Napo- leon, and for its adornment, regardless of ex- pense, brush aside buildings and remodel earth’s surface over the immense area to the District boundaries. But by existing law the increase of irregular and objectionable subur- ban plats will be prevented, and it should be possible to lay down lines in reasonable con- formity with the present plan along which suburban settlement may adjust itself. These lines should be clearly indigated, both for the welfare of the future city and for the relief of suburban owners from their present uncer- tainty in respect to sites upon which residences may be safely built. By proposing exten- sions of existing streets in certain lines, and then by a shilly-shally policy leay- ing condemnation proceedings in abeyance fora time, the Commissioners may, as in the Presbrey case, increase the uncertainty, annoy- ance, andjdamage which fall, from the circum- stances of the situation, on suburban owners. In this case there has been condemnation enough to stop house-building on the threat- ened land, to depreciate its value, and to keep the owner from the enjoyment of a completed residence, but not enough to take the property and pay its owner for it. Such proceedings ought not to be begun until the end is clearly seen, anda decision has been reached to pro- ceed promptly to that end. —————— Before this there have been mortal terrors in the very name of Ingalls, and it is not strange that the town of that name in Kansas has tipped the state nearly over. Gray county is one of the new settlements along the Arkan- sas river in the western end of the state. Cimar- ron, the station west of the famous capital of cowboydom, Dodge City, has been its county seat. Ingalls,which now seems to be thecounty capital, isa later growth. Its characteristics, however, do uot belie its name, and the town is getting to the front with deadly accuracy. The recently elected county officers are Ingalls men,and, finding some opposition to the removal of the records to their town. covered the old officials with Winchesters, and expeditiously carried off the county archives. The Cimar- ron people were naturally very mad, and Gov. Martin had to imcrease the population of the town two toone by ordering a regiment of militia there until peace was restored. In- cidentally the removal of the records caused the death of two Cimarron citizens, and Gov. Martin has solemnly promised that somebody shall be punished for this phase of the affair. Both towns have established a shotgun quar- antine against each other. a A novel proposition has made its appearance in New York that may contain the germ ofa new policy for coast defense. It is that the state build on its own account for volunteer tender to the United States in case of need two large steel cruisers. Independent of constitu- tional objections,—for there is no reason why private enterprise should not build vessels for the government,—such a course would be justi- fiable on the same grounds as the maintenance of the national guard,—with this difference that the militia is designed for police uses in patting down the lawlessness of citizens while sea-going cruisers would be intended to fight a foreign enemy. As an insurance for the safety of New York city against bombardment it would be the part of wisdom to do what Con- gress fails to do—defend the coast. But it is one thing to build ships and another to keep them in order, Itis one thing to have the power to maintain ships and know just when to use them. There would be everlasting confu- sion of authority in the experiment. No less would there be everlasting shame upon the people of the United States in permitting such course tobe taken. The defense of New York is the concern of the whole country and the suggestion of the private construction of ships for the defense of the metropolis ought to arouse Congress to a necessity which grows only plainer with increasing neglect. ————— - The enemies of Gen. Mabone are getting sat- isfaction out of the fact that the delegation that called at Gen. Harrison’s house Saturday to urge the Virginian’s appointment to a cabi- net place was shown into the back parlor. They think that if the President-elect had felt friendly to Mahone, and been at all disposed to call him into his administration, he would have asked his friends into the front parlor. The anti-Mahoneites should go a little slow. The front-room carpet in the Harrison mansion was all worn out by other cabinet candidate boomer delegations, and Gen. Harrison's finest compli- ment now to a guest is to take him into the back parlor. If cabinet booms do not fall off a little before long he may be obliged to take his friends into his kitchen. es Worcester, Mass., objects to the whistling of any but sacred music in her churches Sunday might. Her mayor issued this prohibition for- mally to a woman whistler yesterday and the show did not come off. Jokes at his expense are probably in order, but more people will ‘think he was right than otherwise. a Death's equal footfall was heard in Jay Gould’s palace yesterday and the bereaved - money king bows like men under his burden of grief. : ro Sanguine friends of the Irish cause in London «Predict the collapse of the Times’ investigation of Parnell.
