MR PLATT AND THE NEW POLICE MAGISTRATES. Mr. 'T. C. Platt has® sore neck. Mayor a @trong has hit him very hard with that Matof police magistrates, For the first time the boas, or rather ex-boss, sees a great heap of Republican patronage divided without his being consulted, nay, wor: @ivided among those who are hia ene: 2 miea and are laying plans to destroy Wie power, The Mayor by this act has helped more to nur Piatt than by any- thing else he has done, for what is a 4 Boss without patronage? How quick the 4 machine men up the State will be to find out that Platt is now merely a name and no longer can it be used to conjure up jobs for needy heelers. As to the new police magistrates, they will probably be a great improveme ever Koch, Divver and Grady. At least, a they all have reputations as decent and ¥ Fespectable members of the community, 4 and doubtless they will sustain thei Feputations by their actions on the bench, ‘They must remember that they are put (ere not to help to build up any new p political machine nor to tear down any 4 eld one.

Phereupon an evening newspaper, which Cenohes every day that in all controver- @tes whoever is rich is right, attacks this decision because it says it enforces | 4 ‘the doctrine that “persons who have once 4g feeen employed by @ particular man or @orporation have the right to remain fm the service as long as they please em their own terms, and to employ any e @aeans short of violence to attain this ¥ ew” ‘Phe reason why this wealth defender fs wrong in this and whenever trouble @eiens between workingmen and busi- ame men ie that he regards those who ‘Wark'es the servants of those who em- gley, Note the English phrase “in the @ervics.” Further on he compares the ‘Werkingman on strike to a discharged Datler. ~ Worktngmen are not servants; they f ere not “in service.” Their unions have been formed to obtain the highest price | ‘ Spee tor &® commodity—labor, setts judge is entirely right when be says they are justifled in using “persuasion, advice and social pressure” t® bring other men in the market to _@Ptaim the highest price for he same @ommodity, Manufacturers .neet and Fegulate their prices, and appoint com- Mittees to urge other manufactur- ema to join with them in doing 4 - #0, but the general’ public never ; @kiaks of calling out the police and put- fing @ guard around the place of their Geiiberations, Their right to do so is not questioned; nor yhould there be question or Fight of workingmen to meet and the price of their one comino ®or of their right to urge their fellow Workingmen to keep up that price. A COSTLY SUICIDE. A Jealous wife is not a very pleasant thing to have ir the house, Neither is er company very desirable on a steam- @hip, Yet every sensible person will @oademn as ridiculous the act of Prof, Maab, Chief of the Educational Bureau of India, who jumped overboard from the Meamship City of Topeka, near Queen Charlotte Sound, Alaska, last Monday, Because of @ quarrel with his Jealous wife. He might have found some other Jethod of getting rid of her less costly himself. Mrs, Nash 1s @ daughter of ® Hindoo Prince, and has an Indian temper prob- ably. But however angry she may be her tantrums, her husband should Mever have allowed her temper to drive him into the cold sea. ‘MoWever, when the bothered Professor took this desperate remedy for witely wi fealousy, it was not without some grati- Beation of revenge.

Gov. Morton ta urged to veto the Conkling bill requiring inspectors of election in this city to note and make @ ecord in the registration books of the height, welght, color of the halt, “vimt- ble marke on the face and other tie- tinguishing deformities of any kind, or pecullarities of the votce,” of all voters applying for registration, The Governor ought to be prepared to veto this m ure without anybody's urging Asa law it would be repugnant to every dictate of citizenly sense. No purpose can be served by the pro- posed jaw except that of complicating election proceedings and embarrassing ot even turning away would-be voters. It is well enough to put personal de- formities and peculiarities of appear- once on record for the purpose of !de: (lng criminals, Such processes ap- pliod to free citizens aa a preliminary requisite to the privileges of a free fran- chise would be nothing short of out- rageous, The plea that It is in the In- terest of pure elections is nonsense, A GRAB FOR THE EARTH. Our millionaires have built railroads, or wrecked them, as the case may be; have seized on the oll trade of the country have captured cordage, made a mo nopoly of the sugar business, and done other enterpriing things, But this the first time they have latd their hands on a territory and built up a city. Yesterday John Jacob Astor, the Van- derbiits, the Webbs, Brother-in-Law Twombly, Chauncey M. Depew and others concluded the purchase of the town of Depew, near Buffalo, They in- tend to build the place up into a elty by conoentrating in it the vaat works con- nected with the New York Central Rall- road, the West Shore, Lackawanna, Lake Shore, Michigan Central and Nickel Plate roads, the Wagner Palace Car Company, the Electric Power at Niagara Falls, which they control, and all the Intorests they hold In their giant hands, Our money-grabbers have endeavored to make themselves autocrats In many directions. ‘This is the first grab they havo made for the earth. | . THE FIGHT FOR FREEDOM. Two facts prove that the Spanish Gov- ernment ts aware ft hi hard task on its hands In the attempt to crush out the uprising for Free Cuba, The anxiety of tho Spaniards to persuade the people [that the leaders of the revolution are dead, and the call of Gen, Campos for more troops, show that the Government ts weak and that the Bepa- ratists are gaining strength. If, as ts pretended, trouble ts already over, what need has Campos for a larger |army, which can be given him only at a heavy cost to his Government? Free Cuba Is a certainty. It may meet with some delay, But a people who are fighting for their natural rights ‘against tyranny and oppression are cer- | tain to win in the end. FR STSITES AT 100 IN THE SHADE. Some persons ate never satisfied. The mercury was doing @ pas seul upon the 100 degree line of the thermome' at -asillon, O,, Wednesday and Masillon- fans were having. a hard time keeping their standing collars trimmed and dodg- ing gunstrokes, * ‘The only man in the place who was alive and cool was a cold-storage house \ewner, who sat in one of his cold-storage rooms and found the temperature so |.reezing that he sighed for arctic over- shoes and ear-muffs, and feared that he would at any moment be turned Into anj iclcle.

DRAMATIONEWS AND NOTES Coloriess Production of “A Doll's Howse"-Mr. Brooks's Troa- with “The Rival Never has the intelligibility of Ibsen’ not particularly intelligible play “A Doll's House” been so hopelessly ob- fcured am it was at Hoyt's Theatre last night when Miss Janet Achurch ap- peared as the foolish young wife, Nora Heimer. The mere significance of the play was lost, ind it was not possible to credit the denouement, Miss Achurch made Nora a slovenly macaroon-chewing creature, who adored her husband Tol wald {2 @ bilnd, slavish sort of a way. And she kept up the worship until the “The Eve! bi last act, when, without @ moment's warning, she suddenly discovered that she could like him no more. Miss Achureh scarcely showed us the dawn of this dislike, It was spasmodic and impossible, Misa Achurch displayed the same faults in this play as she did in “Worget-Me-Not.” Her emotional work was absolutely unacceptable, although some of her quiet moments—end for- tunately Nora has a good many—were extremely good. But she did not look the “little songbird,” and her tarantella tn the second act was a model of clumsl- ness that would havo disgraced Tor- wald at the masked ball. And surely it was a mistake for Mins Achurch to dress Nora as @ hopeless slattern. In the last act ehe looked like Maggie Mur- phy as the tough girl. Nora Helmar wan a poor woman, but the middle class people of Norway ca surely be neat and well kempt, expecially tnen they have well dressed and almost foppish hus- bands.
