LOW’S PLEASANT TASK. EST anybody should mistake whose magnanimity it wae that L averted the impending railroad strike, the Hon. Seth Low rises to pin a rose on the right party. Mr. Low forgets none of the sufferings to which the railroads have been exposed, nor their vast needs, nor the hcavy demands made upon them. And when they had every right/to nope for a share of the arbitration now on tap, Mr. Low finds them the more to be commended “for waiving their desires in the intercst of an amicable settlement.” The chairman of ihe managers’ conference committee in an- nouncing the managers’ decision to withdraw their grievances gives every assurance that the chief thought of the railroads is “to protect the public.” All of which is polite, pleasant and even flattering. The public would never have begrudyed the railroads a share of the arbitration. But how much more gratifying is the chance to see these proud cor- porations living down the past and yearning to make sacrifices for the public good. As a new railroad motto, “The public be protected” is welcomed with joy. The Hon. Setli Low is just the man to make the proper acknowledgments. The suggestion is made that Tammany intends to name Aaron J. Levy for the place on the General Sessions bench filled ably and acceptably for nearly fourteen years by Warren W. Poster. No { wonder a citizens’ committee Is forming to push Judge Foster for r SETTLE ALL DOUBT. F THE WISDOM of ihe highest State courts and even the Su- Pteme Court of the United States must be invoked to settle whether this city can properly seek to regulate eo obvious and grate @ nuisance as soft coal smoke, then the sooner somebody starts " the judicial machinery the better. Last year the Court of Special Sessions upheld the Health De- partment in gn action egsinst the New York Central Railroad for maintaining a nuisance in permitting locomotives outside one of its Harlem roundhouses to discharge “dense smoke.” This year the same \cougt decides that the Sanitary Code cannot enforce its smoke ordi- ~ nance against the New York Edison Company, which blackens and Pollutes the air at First avenue and Thirty-cighth street. Why? It weeds no lawyers or judges to demonstrate that for purposes of real life smoke and soot are serious nuisances for every man, woman and child that has to suffer from them. If the legel or judi- cial interpretation of “nuisance” has gone soaring above all consider- s ations of common sense, then it js time it was brought back to earth i where it can do somebody some good.
