With a single ex- ception that the company now operates two-horse cars instead of the ancient “bob- tails,” its service differs in no material re- spect from that which existed when the Toad was first built. Why does not the Metropolitan company awake from its slum- bers and take that position in the parade to which the value of its charter entitles it? Cannot its management read local history? ‘There was similar disregard displayed by the Washington and Georgetown company, but if a soulless corporation can indulge in regrets it is safe to say that the Washing- ton and Georgetown company does; it lost many thousands of dollars by its somno- lence. Only a few years since, citizens liv- ing along Fourteenth street found it neces- sary to hold indignation meetings and to threaten all manner of things before the ecmpany would substitute two-horse cars for the little one-horse cracker-boxes that had for a long time been run on that im- portant thoroughfare. Then the company maintained that it could not afford to carry passengers to Mt. Pleasant for a single fare. Now the cable moves rapidly just beneath the surface over which the sluggish car- horse dragged himself painfully, and there is mo break in the trip to Mt. Pleasant. In- creased receipts and vastly greater profit followed these changes, and there can be no Foom for doubt as to the success which would come to the Metropolitan company ‘as to the result of the adoption of a liberal and progressive policy. That the business of ; the company suffers from antique methods; and equipment is plain to many who have Ro financial interest in the road. —— — +02 —— Whenever complimentary mention has been made of the New York police, it has invariably been remarked that the one member of the force who was in every re- spect more competent than any other mem- ber -was Superintendent Byrnes. For years he has been the directing force, and in countless ways he has shown his capacity to control an army organized for the preser- vation of peace and the encouragement of good citizenship. It has been said that while others knew a great deal about police methods in New York he alone knew all about them, and that his hand ded every official act. To readers of newspa- pers, it must, for some time, have been per- fectly plain that the police-force of New York was, to a considerable extent, an ag- gregation of blackmailers; the testimony developed before the Lexow investigating committee being sufficient to thoroughly Support such an allegation. In view of the fact that the committee is about to take a recess until Sej tember, it is not likely that Superintendent Byrnes will be called to the stand until the committee reassembles in the fall, but it is hoped that—although no accusation has been made against the su- perintendent—that the committee will insist upon his coming to the front and telling all he knows of the wickedness that has been Wrought in his department by Tammany politicians. To say, as has been said, that Superintendent Byrnes knows nothing of what has been going on, is to impute to the undoubtedly shrewd chief a possession of ignorance most uncomplimentary; he surely must know a great deal, and probably does know all that any man possibly could of What has been going on. He should be given an opportunity to unburden his mind. Curious people have long wondered whence came the immense fortunes that Tammany “bosses’’ invariably secured; the secret has always been an open one, and now it would be folly to even refer to it secret of any sort. Day after day the truth is made more manifest, and night after night throws shadows over an increased number of Rewly-wrecked reputations. It is quite probable that the investigating committee knows what it is doing when it plans for a Jengthy recess, but to people who are a couple of hundred miles away, it seems as though it would be much better for the committee to continue in session, to hear the testimony of Superintendent Byrnes, and to see to it that as many of the gullty as can be prosecuted are moved toward the penitentiary with all possible speed. In two months the desperate police and the more desperate wire-pullers who crouch be- dhind them, can bulldoze or spirit away a great many valuable witnesses. Of course, there is some discomfort in the work of in- Vestigation while the warm weather is on, but if the results are approximately as great as they have been, inquiry will prove Righly profitable to the state. + One feature in the plan of the American Economic Reform Society—to spread its gospel by means of missionary wagons sent through the country—is to be commended when contrasted with the Coxey folly. These missionary wagons are to be sent eek their favorites at out-door concerts and are naturally surprised at their pro- duction under such circumstafices; the great listening crowd—often unable to hear—is both surprised and disgusted. In those se- lect circles where the most énigmatic of Wagner ig reverently adored, open-air con- certs, with their ordinarily popular selec- tions, are regarded as harmonious impro- prieties; useful only to titillate the uncul- tivated senses of people whose ideas of park music may be summed up in the terms “harmony,” “rhythm” and “volume. supply should be subordinate to the de- mand. What the public wants are catchy song-airs, waltzes that get the feet of the Usteners in motion, marches thet suggest | the waving of the colors, the clafik of arms | and the tramp in unison of many feet.) Judged by some standards, the popular taste may appear Jow and vulgar, but there are many who appreciate music in its high- est form who will take issue with such conclusions. New York's Park Commission- THE EVENING STAR, 8 THE WEEK. The tariff bill occupied the attention of the Senate during the week, and consider- able progress was made. Senator Hill led the opposition to making coal dutiable, but Senator Irby was the only demucrat sup- Porting him,though two republicans (Messr#. Hansbrough and Washburn) and the thrée Populists voted with them. The Senate com- mittee investigating charges connecting Sen- ators with the sugar trust finished the tak- ing of testimony; the cases of the wit- nesses who refused to testify have beén sent to the grand jury of the District of Co- lumbia, The new quorum-counting rule was put into operation in the House to prevent obstruction on the anti-option bill. The Senate defeated Mr. Peffer’s motion to es- tablish a graduated income tax and Mr. Al- drich’s to limit its operation to June 1, 1888, The American Railway Union, in session Chicago, decided to work with the popul! party. A new party was born in a congr: onal district in the west, known as the industrial party, and a nomination for Con- ers have righteously agreed that the people gress was made.

Gen. Howard very wisely admits that “whatever be the cause or causes, a financial depression has come upon our country and still exists,” end with that admission as # text he discourses with admirable good sense upon the re- markable movement. There is no appear- ance of personal accord with Coxey’s ideas and there is in one or two places emphatic declaration as to the folly of centralizing aggressive paupers at the national capital. | Gen. Howard insists that restraint and punishment shall follow any violation of the law, but he is evidently opposed to causeless assault upon the bands of mis- guided men who have been and still are tramping around in search of something to eat. Gen. Howard does not attempt to be jocular in this matter nor does he go to the other extreme; he has dealt with the subject in his capacity as an upright and patriotic American citizen—as an officer of the army he cannot deal with it until there 1s actual physical rebellion. _oo Discussion on the proposition recently made to organize and operate a training- school wherein wives, mothers and house- keepers may be fitly educated for their du- ties, has been given @ somewhat unex- pected turn by one of those bright women, who, probably through no fault of her own, is without that useful appefidage—an indus- trious husband. This keeh-witted cham- pion of @ cause that has too often been championiess wants to know whether the advocates of the training-school propose to supply to each graduate a devoted and prop- erly-trained husband, father and house- holder—“a husband who will bring a cer- tificate to remain faithful to his duties, in order that the education of the graduate may not be in vain by reason pf her being compelled to seek wage-paying labor to provide herself with bread and butter.” She says, does this, anonymous woman, that if this cannot be gusranteed it is labor lost to provide more women with a train- ing for which they are to have no future use; that already too many women have had to begin a late and hard struggle to make up the deficiencies of the men who have tired of their position of bread-earners. There is a good deal of point, and pretty sharp point at that, in the impossible sug- gestion. If men would attend more strictly to their own business and put in what spare time they have for thought in endeavor- ing to eliminate theif own weaknesses and would not be everlastingly seeking an op- portunity to tell woman what she should do, the sex conditions would certainly be mo worse than they are now, chances are that they would be very much better.

Countless thousands have enjoyed the band’s endeavors to please and would continue to enjoy them did the band only afford sufficient opportunity. But the opportunity has ouly been coming rarely of late; so rarely in fact that tne Park Commissioners have re ently been in re- ceipt of a steady stream of complaints; not because the quality of the band’s execution has declined, but because the programs have been filled to a trifle more than reple- tion with productions of the purest classical type—the result of a desire on the part of the band’s leader to “educate” the multi- tude. The task is an extremely thankless | ene, and should never be attempted save when the band’s hearers have in some un- mistakable manner declared themselves to be in need of enlightenment.
