Vinduct Plans. An agreement between the Commissioners and the railroad committee of the Board of Trade to press the grade-crossing fight anew at the coming session gives promise o? lively times this winter. The B. and 0. Proposition to enter the city by a double viaduct has never been satisfactory to the citizens of the northeast section, who seek to reduce the menace and the nuisance to the lowest possible point. Nor has It ever been popular at the District offices, and new that the Engineer Commissioner has joined hands with the citizens the reasons for the single viaduct plan will probably be presented to Congress in convincing feshion from authoritative sources. This question ought to be settled definitely at this next session, for the limit of patience has long since been reached. The company acknowledges the need of changing its terminal arrangements, and is on record as promising to abandon the surface tracks and to build viaducts. It even agreed on one occasion to adopt the single structure plan, and a bill was prepared to this effect with the consent and assistance of the offi- cers of the road. The company later re- pudiated the single viaduct agreement, al- leging that this plan was not feasible on account of the grades. The engineer who drew up the proposition was retired and all later suggestions from this source have favored two viaducts. Were there no com- petent engineering opinion to justify the former plan the company’s position would be strong, but there is enough expert testi- mony in its favor to warrant the belief that ingle viaduct is wholly practicable. Whatever the truth of the case, it should be easy of ascertainment by the District committees of Congress. Some of the mem- bers of the committees have already in- formed themselves of the company's view by means of a personal inspection of the plans, and tkere sheuld be little time wasted in going over old propositions when the The matter comes to a focus this winter. receivership is a new factor in the . but it ought not to be permitted to way of the passage of a law y fixing tke responsibility and the duty of the road in the premises.

No good pury hibition of hypnoti can be served by the ex- sleep of prolonged du- ration now being given in this city by a young man. If there be any virtue what- ever in the claim of the hypnotists or mes- merists—and there seems to be scientific ground for a measure of belief in them— the process of inducing an artificial state of catalepsy is practicable. Yet the utility of such an abnormal bodily condition is dubic thesia has been developed rientific methods to the point per- pn, and difficult surgical operations performed without pain. Hypno- bly little place in such dire and it is questionable here will ever be any need for its ent along these lines.

The best medical opinion is agreed as to the bad physical influence upon the subject of these experiments. It matters not that the subject enters volun- tarily upon the state. Suicide is a volun- tary act, and yet under the laws of some states unsuccessful attempts at self-murder are punishable as misdemeanors. So the voluntary subjection to a harmful in- fluence might possibly be construed as an offense against public morals that should ked.

There will be only one kind of campaign button in demand a week from today. +02 At present money is more talked-about than talkin: ho sentiment—that the sent him in the 4s a movement inimical in the |: is to good order and to good public morals. If the charge came exclusively frométhe politicians, this com- plaint might arrest respectful attention. Politicians of any part in the heat of z exciting campaign are apt to be unduly severe in the arraignment of the opposi- tien. But, unfortunately for Mr. Bryan, the charge comes with greater force from eminent churchmen than it does from the mést eminent of the politicians. it has a weight, therefore, that cannot be disposed of by ascribing the charge to the tricks of the political trade. Among prelates of national reputation who have publicly expressed this view of the Bryan movement are Archbishop Ire- land, Catholic, and Bishop Whipple, Epis- copalian, of Minnesota; Bishop Potter, Episcopalian, of New York; Bishop New- man, Methodist; Bishop Chatard, Catholic, of Indiana, and Bishop Seymour, Episco- palian, of Illinois. These are all men of mature years, of recognized learning and piety, and necessarily students of all ques- tions and influences affecting good order and good morals. All speak in the same tone, and without reservation, at this time. If they were all of the same religious faith, and graduates of the same religious school, they could not agree more perfectly as to the consequences that would follow the election of Mr. Bryan, with the influences that are behind him to control his official action. The carrying out of his programme, they think, would not only destroy the little t! is left of business confidence, but by arraying men against each other on other lines than those of business and Ppoiftics, destroy all good feeling and open tiie way to turbulence and acute distress. Words of the import of these, coming from sources so high, are well worth the profound respect and reflection of all men. They represent the unexcited observations of men who labor daily for the good of others, and whose disinterestedness cannot be called in question. They are not politi- eal preachers. Nor are they sensational pulpiteers. They do_not even speak as churchmen, but as citizens of the country having the country’s interests at heart. They can have no interest in the result other than as men who wani to see good order and public faith preserved, and the country’s continued prosperity assured. They are hunting no favors of any kind for themselves or for their friends. They speak with good right, for they are citi- zens; with good intelligence, for they are trained in detecting untoward influences on man; and it is safe to assume that they speak with effect, for they enjoy, and de- serve, the sincere respect of the country. ——~>+e—___ Dogs and Bicycles. A correspondent signing himself ‘‘Dog- owner’ made a pertinent inquiry in last night’s Star as to the propriety of levying @ two-dollar tex o1 a one-dollar canine. ‘The dog tax can hardly be classed with the proposition to assess bicycle owners for it must not be considered as a strictly revenue measure. It is largely intended to restrict the number of dogs in the city and to enable the authorities to keep a surveillance over the sometimes dangerous animals. It is impossible to estimate the ratios between the dog tax and the value of the property, for sentiment enters so largely into the question of personal valua- tion as to utterly confuse the mathema- ticlan. Fido, a frowsy creature of uncer- tain pedigree, might be worth nothing to Mr. Jones, while Mr. Smith, his owner, would probably refuse fifty dollars for thé family pet. There is a certain market value, to be sure, for hunting dogs and, unfortunately, for fighters, but the great majority of taxable canines in the city is probably made up of beasts that can hard- ly be classified in the dog fancier’s cata- logue with any degree of certainty and that would not sell for one-tenth of the tax if put up at auction. It is intended to make the keeping of dogs in a@ certain sense a hxury and hence the placing of the tax at two dollars, which is probably as nearly arbitrary as any other tax ever levied. ‘“Dog-owner” may or may not be a bicycle rider, but he and the thousands of other lovers of the canine family will surely see the difference between the two forms of taxation. . ———~+ e+ The usual announcement of a philosophic determination to wait until four years later may confidently be looked for on November 4. —————»>+2—____ Sixty men only were employed on the city post office today. ———_+ +2 —___.

I don’t hear anything else at home.” “What's the opinion there?” “Its variegated. My wife is for gold; my father-in-law wants the free and un- limited coinage of silver, and my oldest son won't be satistied with anything except bi- metallism with an international agree- ment.” “And what position do you take?” “Me?
