FRAUDULEN1 REGISTRATION.
WffEN the Registration law was passed the
Democrats were loud in their protestations
against it as an attempt to interfere with the
freedom of elections, to throw obstacles in the
way of voters exercising their rights of
suffrage, and especially as a radical device to
cut down the number of Democratic votes
fend thereby swell the Republican majorities
and rmiatain the Republican ascendancy.
Fair-minded and impartial men, however,
who desired to see a check placed upon the
operations of corrupt political managers,
and the purity of the ballot-box secured
80 far as it is possible to secure it by legal
enactments, were able to see nothing in the
Registry law but a fair and unpartisan effort
to carry out these ends, and to make the elec
tions really the expression of the wishes of
the majority. We will not undertake to say
that the Registry law is the best that could
be devised for the purpose, as it ia now on
trial and its value will be tested by experience;
but it is at least a move in the right direc
tion, and its provisions are as fair for one
party as the other. The Democrats objected
to it, as they have objected to the attempts at
reforming the naturalization laws proposed in
Congress, and to all other safeguards against
fraud and corruption that have been advo
cated by the friends of law and order, who
believe that the safety of our republican in
stitutions mainly depends upon the purity of
the ballot-box being secured. In spite of
the opposition of the Democrats to the
Registry law, however, they have availed
themselves of it to pursue their usual tactics
with greater boldness and audacity than ever,
And the investigation now being conducted
by United States Commissioner Biddle proves
the existence of a gigantio Democratic con
spiracy to carry the coming election at
all hazards by a system of fraudulent re
gistration that would literally overwhelm the
honest voters of Philadelphia. It is perfectly
useless for the Age to nil its editorial columns
with asseverations that this investigation is a
Republican device to throw discredit on the
Democracy, when the evidence clearly and
unmistakably shows that the guilty parties
are Democrats, and that most of them were
vouched for by Democratic policemen. The
police force have shown themselves
to be the active agents of the De
mocratic managers in this whole affair;
and Mayor Fox owes it to himself and
to the public to clear himself from the suspi
cion of being in any way the aider and abettor
of the outrage by making an official investiga
tion into the conduot of the men on the police
force, and promptly dismiss such as are guilty.
This is the least that the Mayor can do, and
his plea of lack of official information on the
subject will scarcely be accepted by honest
men of either party.
The efficiency of the Registry law as a pro
tection against fraud is now on trial, and it is
of vastly more importance that this efficiency
should be demonstrated in the most decided
and unmistakable manner than that a mere
party triumph should be secured. If any so
called Republicans are in any way implicated
in fraudulent registration, let them be disco
vered and promptly brought to jus
tice. The Republican prty, which
relies for support upon the intelligent and
thinking portion of the public, cannot afford
to appear as the apologist for dishpnesty of
any kind, and we would rather be fairly de
feated than win a triumph by unfair means.
At the same time we do not intend to be de
feated by any but fair means, and the Demo
cratic managers may rely upon it that luy
improper device they may resort to
for the purpose of gaining the ascen
dancy in this city will be promptly met
and exposed; and as a warning to those un
partisan voters who may be laboring under
the de'nsion that a Demooratio success would
lead to an improvement in the administration
of onr public affairs, we need only suggest
that the men who are interested in the suo-
C638 of the conspiracy now being ventilated
before Commissioner Biddle are not likely to
be models of purity if they ever get into
offices of trust and emolument.
THE RUSSIAN RIDDLE.
The accounts that Russia is arming are too
well confirmed to admit of doabt, and one of
the most important problems of European
politics is whether she is making her gigantio
military preparations for the purpose of glv
log a final blow to the sick man of Turkey,
or with the intention' of overawing Prussia.
Those who favor the latter hypothesis allege
that the same policy which now prompts the
incorporation of Alsace and Lorraine with
Germany will lead eventually to an assault
upon the Baltic provinces of Russia, which
contain a considerable number of inhabitants
of German descent; they also point to articles
in Russian journals which declare that if
Prussia thoroughly humbles France she will
necessarily become the rival instead of the
friend of Russia; and they allege that the
colossal power of Eastern Europe is now pre
raring to guard her own frontier in the future
hj insisting that a powerful rivalry ukaU bo
faajataiKed ty Fiance against Germany. Qa
the other band, some Germans discredit
this theory altogether. They allege
that the good feeling between Prnssia and
Russia is too well established to be destroyed
now by the imputed jealousies, and that the
real object of the military preparations which
are attracting so tnuoh notice is another cru
sade against the crumbling throne of the
Sultan. The whole world will soon know
which of those conflicting theories is correct.
It is evident that the Cossack is to play an im
portant part if warlike operations are to be
continued in Europe, and in a shert time we
shall learn whether he ia to help Franoe in
the hour of her last extremity or to attempt
to convert the Mediterranean into a Russian
lake.
TDE WATER SUPPLY.
In the middle of the heated term of last sum
mer we were threatened with a scarcity of
water, and that we were not plaoed in the
same predicament as during the previous
season was due to the mercies of Provilence
rather than to our own good management.
After a warning that ought to have been all
sufficient, and with a whole year to prepare
against a recurrence of a great calamity, the
not. weatner of last summer round uu'
with the Fairmount Water Works
Btill unprovided with the proper
facilities for supplying the city with water in
case the Schulykill should become so low that it
would be impossible to use the present
pumping machinery. This should under no
circumstances be allowed to occur again, and
Councils should immediately take into con
sideration the whole subject of providing the
city with an ample supply of water at all
seasons and under all circumstances that
human prudence can foresee and arrange for.
Last season the matter was delayed, on one
pretext or another, until it was impossible,
to do what ought to be done even if the
means had been provided, and the improve
ments in the water works that Councils did
authorize, while perhaps well enough in
themselves, were not sufficient to meet the
difficulty to which we may be subjected at
any time during the summer months. There
has certainly now been ample discussion of
the subject, and the members of Councils
ought to be fully informed as to what the
necessities of the , city are in the way
of proper machinery, and it is time for
some definite action to be taken. If it is
now determined exactly what machinery is
needed, and the appropriations necessary for
procuring it are made, the water works can
easily be put in proper order before next
summer, and all fears of a failure of the water
supply removed. The Schuylkill is amply
sufficient to supply ns with all the water we
can possibly use, and it will be our own fault
if we ever again suffer from a scarcity at the
time of year when an abundance is most im
peratively needed.
REDUCED TAXATION.
On the first of October (to-morrow) the new
Internal Revenue law, reducing taxation on
a number of articles, and abolishing some
taxes altogether, goes into effect. It is esti
mated that the reductions made by this law,
together with the changes of the tariff, will
reduce the burdens imposed upon the Ameri
can people for the Bupport of the National
Government to the amount of from seventy
to eighty millions of dollars, and thus Ameri
can tax-payers will be relieved of as large an
imposition as the sum total of the national
revenues ten years ago. The Republican
Congress, which had the nerve to impose
taxes with an unsparing hand when they were
deemed necessary to maintain the public
credit, has promptly responded to the popu
lar demand for the abrogation of those which
can be most easily dispensed with, and if the
iniquitous income tax bad been wholly abol
ished, their action would have been univer
sally hailed in this portion of the country
with nnmingled satisfaction.
Among the changes which will be especially
welcome are the abolition of the taxes on
sales of merchandise or manufactures and the
abolition of the stamp on receipts. The vexa
tious statements necessitated by the former
were a source of great annoyance to business
men, and none of the stamps caused so much
trouble as those which the law required to be
placed on receipts for sums over twenty dol
lars. It is easy enough to put stamps on
checks or important legal documents, but as
payments of money on current accounts are
constantly being made at out-of-the-way
places where receipt stamps could not be con
veniently obtained, a strict fulfilment of the
law was next to impossible, and it was, natu
rally enough, so frequently evaded that it
was rapidly falling into contempt.
The income tax, as modified, excepts all
who receives incomes of less than $2000, and
this change will enable a very large propor
tion of those who have been mulcted by this
iniquitous imposition to escape soot free
hereafter.
The tax on railroad receipts is also abo
libhed, and a new impetus will thus be given
to the old question whether the fares on
some of the eteam and city passenger rail'
ways should not be reduced.
These reductions, coupled with the redtic
tions in the tariff npon necessaries of life like
tea and coffee, which are exclusively of foreign
growth, will afford material relief to hundreds
of thousands of householders, and the moneys
rescued from Uncle Sam's clutches will
enable them to either make a handsome pro
vision for the proverbial rainy day or to in
crease their list of comforts and luxuries.
On Monday next the rate of fare oa the
New York city passenger railways will be re
duced to five cents on account of the tax of
one-eighth of a cent on the fares imposed by
Congress exDirinc by limitation. This tax of
one-eighth of a cent was made the ex juae for
adding a whole cent, and now that the
fax is removed" the companies are only
doing the least that can be expected of
than by going baok to the old rates. It is
true, many of the officers of the roads con
tend that they will lone money by the opera
tion, but they are JoUrwinoJ to try tiio x
perinieut, and there is scarcely doa't t!it
there will be a fair margin for profit. When will
oar city passenger railway companies follow
the example of New York in this matter? The
price ef horse feed is not what it was in war
time, and with tho United States tax discon
tinued the public have a right to expect
some liberality, aad at least an effort to
return to ante-bellum rates of fare.

giy THE FUBLIU BUILDINGS IT IS CON-
ceded by all who are at all conversant
with tbe necessities of the case, that the City of
Philadelphia needs new Public Buildings. It Is
equally patent to all that the construction of suita
ble accommodations equal to the wants of a great
city like ours will be attended by a large expendi
ture of money, which money can only be raised by
the taxation of the people ; therefore, it behooves
every citizen of Philadelphia to be Interested as to
the site that these new Public Buildings shall be
erected upon. The tax-payer is not at all interested
as to who of us shall be most convenlenced In having
them here, or who of us will be most benefited In
having them there. The Interest of each and every
tax-payer Is where they shall be erected to best
benefit the city and the public at large; their Inte
rest is, where they shall be erected to most largely
Increase the character of the city In architectural
improvement and embellishment, and where the
expenditure of so large an amount of the tax-payers'
money shall most largely Increase the city reve
nue. All this being admitted, we ask, Where can
this cite be If not upon the Penn Squares? Here, In
the very heart of the city. Here, where just such
a public Improvement as these buildings Bbould be
is so greatly needed to give impetus and direction
to other architectural improvements that will at
ence develop and give direction to the future char
acter ef both Broad and West Market streets. Every
professional gentleman, every merchant and busi
ness man, Is deeply Interested that there shall be
no mistake made in this matter of site. Every me
chanic Is, If possible, more interested lu having the
new public buildings npon Penn Squares, in this,
that artisans of air kinds it matters not whether
arobltects, stone masons, bricklayers, carpenters,
Iron workers, plasterers, cellar diggers, or hod car
riersthis new location will keep them busy for the
next twenty years and more not npon the public
buildings themselves, but upon the improvements
tbe locating of said buildings on these Penn Squares
will Induce, from Eighth street to the Schuylkill
river, and from Prime street to Columbia avenue,
and even a greater area.
There is no party politics in this question: it
touches equally every citizen, irrespective of his
party ; it Is more Important to each and every citizen
than who shall be Sheriff than who shall go to Con
gress than who shall enjoy the emoluments of the
office of Register of Wills than who shall be Alder
man In this ward or who shall be Councilman from
that. Therefore, fellow-citizens, look to it that you
avail yourselves of the opportunity now offered of
securing to the city of Philadelphia this most proper
Bite for the expenditure of this large amount of
money ; and to be sure that you have the opportunity
to vote for Penn Square, prepare in advance your
tickets for this purpose, and do not depend upon
ondlng tickets for this locality at the polls.

THE PUBLIC BUILDINGS. CARD.
We de&..e to give public notice tbat there is no
organized effort being made by the friends of Penn
Square to Influence or direct in any way our citizens
on the question of the site for the proposed new
Public Buildings, tbat there is no money being raised
by assessment on property owners or otherwise to
be u ed in preparing or manipulating the tickets or
the vote of our fellow-citizens oa the subject.
We therefore call npon the citizens of Philadel
phia to aee to It for themselves that the efforts now
being made by selnsh members of the Bar and others
1 nit be interest of the Washington Square property
owners does not deprive Philadelphia of the oppor
tunlty she now has of taking a step forward and ele
vating herself In her national status by locating her
Public Buildings in the locality that will most inure
to the convenience of the whole public and assure
tbe architectural improvement of the centre of
the city.
Our efforts made hi the Interests of the Penn
Squares before the adjournment of th? last session
of tbe Legislature, gave the citizens of Philadelphia
the opportunity to express their preferences as to
the site for the new tublio Buildings, and we thus
leave the matter with them, cautioning, however,
the friends of Penn Square not to rely upon the ob
taining of tickets favoring l'enu fc'quare at tbe polls
of their resin dive election precincts, but to prepare
them in advaute themselves.
