Mr. Lin- In-one of the greatest of men—saw the truth and uttered it when he declared in debate with Mr. Douglass that the could not much longer exist half and half free. And yet, plain as that ruth was to him then, and is to all men «w, some great and good men Lefore him Pad taken the opposite view, and tried truces and compromises in an effort to up- heid slavery as an institution under the 7 law. They succeeded for a time, but when the storm at last broke the result was something terrible in human annals. Mr. Lincoln’s words were prophetic, for the war did last “until every drop of blood drawn with the lash” ‘was paid by another drawn with the sword.” The Turk has no business in Europe. He ought long since to have been driven out. He is not only not in sympathy with Euro- pean civilization, but his religion teaches him actually to despise it. And yet the great powers of Europe not only tolerate hm, but support him—encourage him to keep his place. Their day of reckoning will come. They are merely postponing ard maybe not for very long—the day when he can no longer he supported; and they will be fortunate if in that day all of their present maneuvers do not rise up in bloody form to harry them. But come what may, Greece will have done her duty. She has pointed, as with a wand of white fire, to both the abuses and the remedy. She has, so far, the right of the whole matter. Her stand is as fine as that any nation in modern times has taken for civilization and justice. If the figure of speech Is applicable to a country with such a name, she’s a brick. ———__~ee The Herdics and the Pavements. There is ample authority for the sugge tion made by The Siar the other day that the herdic company doing business here be compelled to pay a part, at least, of the repairs to the streets which its traverse In regular reutes. In 1888 Captain Symons, then on duty here as assistant to the Engineer Commissioner, called attention in his annual report to the use and occupation of the city streets by these vehicles in the following language: hese herdics are now run on many of streets of the city, in some cases paral- ith and in the same streets with rail- Ines. These heavy vehicles, following ene another in almost the same track, at short distances apart, all day long and away into the night, are wearing out our oth streets very fast, additional repair. As and are throwing burden upon the city the street car com- ir tracks and the street surfaces iwo djacent thereto, and keep the herdic companies should pay a portion of the - expense of keeping the sireets traversed by them in revair. I would therefore 1 spectfully suggest and recommend that a law be passed, properly framed, to require herdic lines to pay one- f of the expen: of repairing and resurf2. & the pavements f any street or avenue traversed by their vehich No action was taken to this end an the matter was allowed to drop for the time. lis revival now is inetcenial to ee com- s without ae The embodiment in law of C ‘aptain of taxing the company for repairs would probably lead the company to adopt less destructive tires than are now In tse and perhaps the day might be advanced when some form of the horseless vehicles such as are now in use in Paris for omnibus purposes will be put in service here.
