IXTEMPXRATE The Picayune holds to the principle that every ofSeial act of a public officer is a legitimate subject for publio 'inquiry and investigation, because every Buch official being the custodian 1 of public trusts must be, held responsible for the manner in which they are administered. We cannot admit that any publio. servant is above proper critic cism, or is entitled to any exemptions of responsibility for his official acta. But it is an essential ingredient of all such criticism that it should be just as nearly as it is possible to make it bo, and, whether condemnation or praise be meted out.

the decree should be based on the best facts An unjust' condemnation works a great wrong, and so does the indiscriminate scattering of injurious accusations against a class, an organization or an aggregation of individuals, whether the assemblage be social or political or engaged in promoting particular opinions or in upholding a special cause. It is not at all likely that all the individuals composing a body of publio officials or a politieal party or organization of any lawful nature are wicked or corrupt. Even among the very worst classes there are degrees of criminality, and to visit broadcast upon them the same condemnation is as unjust in law as it is in principle. For this reason we hare constantly deprecated any wholesale condemnation of a class, faction or party. The last political campaign in this State was remarkable for its rancor and bitterness on both sides.

Denunciatory pronunciamentos and. condemnatory fulminations were thundered forth on every hand. It was only necessary for an individual of any note to be known as an adherent of one set of opinions or the other when he was made the target for the most violent attacks, while publio officials were held up to the most ferocious indignation of opposing partisans. All this, sort of thing was wrong in the past. If it is to be repeated in the coming State campaign, which is yet a long way off, it will be more than evef wrong.

All public' officials are not corrupt and dishonest, any more than that all the people, of the State are wicked and abandoned. Some -public servants are rascals and thieves. Others are honest and conscientious men striving to do their duty, and. the holding of a particular opinion upon publio policy or the contrary, need not in the least affect their publio' or private integrity. All wholesale denunciation of any class of officials is, therefore, highly unjust and works a bitter wrong to those who are innocent.

They should be strictly held to account, but each should stand upon his own acts and be held responsible therefor. When it comes to the great body of the we believe that they are honest and patriotic, earnestly desiring to promote the prosperity and best interests of the State. We care not what their individual opinions may be on any subject which is not' contrary to law and honesty: The people possess the right to think and decide upon every subject, publio or private, and they are entirely capable of doing so as far as their-general needs go. No campaign of denunciation and vituperation can have any effect upon the great body of the people of Louisiana, and at this early date we deprecate and protest against any violent heat and intemperate acts of pver zealous partisans in the coming State canvas. A campaign of vituperation and vilification can only produce the most deplorable consequences.

AN EXPEDITION TO EXPLORE GREEN--. LAXD. An expedition is soon to start from this country under the auspices of the Philadelphia Academy of Natural Sciences for the purpose of exploring Greenland. A suitable vessel has been provided, and a party is to be sent out, consisting of ncientists, who are expected not only to determine the extent of Greenland, now an unknown quantity, but to also bring back specimens of animal and vegetable life. The expedition is to go thoroughly equipped to encounter all difficulties, and expects to be absent several years.

It is said that one of the leading objects of the enterprise is to determine whether Greenland is an island or a as many believe. It, is thought that should the latter theory prove correct, the solution of the mystery surrounding the north pole will be at length solved and the journey thither made possible. ltiaa strange trait of human nature that the disasters which have overtaken in succession all the expeditions which have in the past attempted to reach the north pole have not deterred ther enterprising spirits from making fresh attempts, and it i within the possibilities that eventually somebody will be fortunate enough to succeed. In the meantime, however, many valuable lives have been lost in the attempt which, in other spheres, might have done valuable service to science, and it is probable that many more such lives are still to be sacrificed in similar The terrible experiences in recent years of such explorers as those attached to theGreelyandDeLong parties are still fresh in everybody's memory, and in view of the trials of those expeditions the general publio cannot be persuaded to look upon fresh explorations as anything else but a. useless waste of life, moreover the results to science, even in the event of success, would not justify the risks taken.

Nevertheless, as long as any portion of the earth's surface remains "terra in-i cognita," there is little doubt but that there will be restless and adventurous spirits, willing and anxious to brave every risk to romovs the uncertainty FOREIGN SUGAR COMPETING 'WITH THE SUGAR TRUST. While it is generally admitted that the McKialey tariff bill has proved a good thing for the Sugar Trust, or rather the American Sugar Beftning Company, which is the name under which the old combine now operates, it appears by the fight being waged on foreign sugars entering directly into consumption, that the monopoly has not reaped all the benefits of the law it. expected. Owing to the prejudice against consuming raw sugars, nearly all the sugar imported free into the country under the new tariff must pay to the refiners' combine such tribute as it exacts before it reaches the Under the provisions of the law, however, it has been found that certain grades of foreign refined sugars can be imported so as to sell in competition with the sugars refined by the trust. It also been found possible to import grades of raw sugars suitable for direct use by consumers.

This com-retiiico, t-ouh tot lare, has Berred to annoy the trust, althonght it is generally admitted that purely on its merits the foreign refined article could not compete, with the American product. to kill off this competition, it is said by a prominent Cincinnati journal that the combine is prepared to adopt radical measures. The paper referred to states that a prominent, broker in Cincinnati, who has been handling foreign refined Bugars. has been notified that he will be practically boycotted unles he abandons the sale of the foreign article. We do not know that this is true, but.

if it is we believe that the great sugar combine is courting a return of that popular animosity which occasioned it so much trouble some years ago, and which finally resulted in bringing it before the courts, which compelled the abandonment of most of the old trust features and a reorganization under a regular charter. Of course this does not refer to any local connections of the great trust, the threats referred to by the Cincinnati paper, if they were actually made, having beyond doubt emanated from New York, where the management of the monopoly is located and where its principal operations are centered. That a determined opposition is also being made by the refinery interests against grocery grades of raw sugar is evidenced by an advertisement which appears regularly in every issue of Wil-lett Gray's sugar circular, relating to the injurious effects upon health of the use of raw sugar and describing the presence of a microscopic insect calculated to make the article unwholesome. No one will be disposed to question the right pf the trust to make all legitimate profits out of the workings of the tariff, but any attempt to resort to unfair means to deprive the people of the full benefits of free sugar is calculated to again bring the combination into disagreeable notoriety. ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING IN TULANE There is probably no physical force destined to play so important a part in the economic science and daily life of the people of civilized nations as is electricity.

To-day it is serving us in so many supremely important and absolutely indispensable offices that if mankind were deprived of its uses civilization would be set back centuries to the rear. But we are justified in believing that we have but just entered the field of electricity's usefulness. Its possibilities for practical beneficence are beyond computation, while what is almost immediately promised is of immense importance. The magicians of antiquity have been far outstripped in their boldest pretensions by the actual exploits of modern wizards like Edison, whose prodigies vie with those narrated in the most gorgeous oriental romances. The study of electricity is now of the first importance, and the electric engineer has oome to be a person who takes a foremost place in the ranks of life's busy workers.

Electrical engineering is an aggregation of many sciences, combined with: a practical knowledge of every description of electrical manipulation. Our university of Tulane is, we are glad to know, not behind in preparations for furnishing adequate instructions in this most important profession. Well heretofore equipped in teachers and material for imparting the necessary instructions, the university, through the enlightened munificence of the managers of some of our local electric light and power companies, has been able to add largely; to its apparatus and material in the way of electric machinery. These additions must so increase its facilities as to place Tulane in very high place for the education and preparation of students in all the branches of electrio engineering. We are particularly glad to record this fact, and "to offer to young men who might otherwise propose to reinforce the over-crowded ranks of lawyers and physicians an opportunity to enter the world's leading profession and become a master of the most potent of nature's forces.

There seems to be a constantly growing demand for electrio engineers. Let. our young men take notice of the fact. and. embrace the benefits Tulane offers.

THE DEATH OF SIR JOHN MACDONALD. Yesterday, after a brief illness, there passed away at his home in Ottawa. Canada, one of the leading men and ablest statesman of the Western Hemisphere, Sir John A-Macdonald, Premier of Canada: For very nearly half a century he has been identified with Cana dian. politics, and for a good portion of the time he has been at the head of the Government of the Dominion. Since 1856 he has been leader of the Conservative party, and as such has always taken a most prominent part in the debates on every measure of importance claiming the attention of Parliament, whether in office or in the opposition.

Although Sir John Macdonald has always met with spirited opposition at the hands of the Liberals in Canadian politics, and but a few months ago was forced to contest a spirited campaign for the the control of the government, still he was far above being merely a party leader and undoubtedly occupied the rank of Canada's ablest public man. As a statesman, he was respected and admired in this country, and in every portion of the world, and his influence in the British empire outside the boundaries of his immediate portion of that vast aggregation of possessions was considerable. In alluding to Sir John's probable death, the Hon. William Henry Smith, leader of the British House of Commons, stated that in his death tne British empire would lose a valuable friend and valiant defender. It was one of the traits of the dead statesman's character that he was ardently devoted to the maintenance of the bonda between the British Home Government and its colonies and stoutly resisted every influence' calculated to estrange' Canada from the mother country.

It was this patriotic devotion which caused him to' make so bitter alight in the recent campaign, the excitement of which probably led to the illness which caused his death. His pexsonal- influence in the Dominion was so strong that it is feared that his death will lead to considerable internal troubles growing out of the existing discontent caused by the falling off in trade and the reciprocity agitation. His personal following was so great that it is questionable whether his successor in the leadership of the Conservative party can hold that aggregation of discordant elements together sufficiently well to make a continuance of the party in power possible. Macdouald's death is therefore a national calamity to Canada, and because of hia great influence in the councils of the British empire at large his loss will be deplored wherever the British flag is acknowledged. In Ma long period of power Sir John was in frequent inter-coarse with the Government of the United States, and although he often opposed the position assumed by our officials, there was never any personal animosity involved.

Although he opposed unrestricted reciprocity with us and characterized any talk of annexation to the United States as high treason, he never forfeited his right to American appreciation of his statesmanship or patriotic motive, RELIEF FROM THE WATER FAMINE. The special meeting of the City Council yesterday to take measures for the relief of the present urgent distress in the city from lack of water brought forth results which seem entirely practical, and which promise to give immediate benefits. The Council appointed a committee to take immediate steps, and what bas already been done is set forth in detail in another column. Water is to be hauled to the more distant points, while marine pumps will be set to work to porfr water directly from the river into the streets. The Water Works Company has, with unexpected' liberality, suspended the regulation which forbids the renters of water rights from giving water to non-renters, and in addition, open more plugs.

Several private citizens, also, have donated the use of wagons, or are actually hauling water and are giving it free to their sufferingneighbors. The prospect seems encouraging for more general relief than has been heretofore had. Bat the drought still continues. The feeble Bhower yesterday afternoon was not felt in the upper part of the city, but it laid the dust in the lower. The necessity for action on Mr.

proposition to bore artesian wells in every ward is as urgent as ever. It is not for the present drought, but for the' future visitations, which 1 the experience of the past assures us are certain to come upon oar city. We regard this as a most important movement, which should be made an aetual accomplished benefit aa soon as practicable. Design for Silver Coins. The committee of artists appointed by the secretary of the treasury to examine the designs submitted for new coins, composed of Messrs.

St. Gaudena, of New York, Henry Mitchell, of Boston, and C. E. Barber, of the Philadelphia mint, held their examination on Wednesday- at the otilce of the director of the mint, Washington. Hone of the designs submitted were deemed worthy of adoption.

One of the most beautiful de-Bltms submitted was by Pascal Caron. of Providence, R. being a design for the obverse or face of the half dollar. It was a' liberty bead surrounded by thirteen stars. Two designs submitted by J.

of New York City ene of a full size figure of a woman representing Liberty, with two children eu either size of ber, one wearing a sword and helmet and the other unrolling a scroll; and the other, an eagle holding in its talons the words, "One Dollar." the motto "In God Trust" enelrcling the whole were considered meritorious. Three designs from Mrs. Iinogene Robinson Morrell, of Washington, D. representing for the obverse of the silver dollar the figure of. WashiHgtonon horseback, and "for the reverse an eagle with folded wings, were favorably soticed.

while four designs bs A. E. OlsBon, of Cambridge. represent-lag three bsada of Liberty for the obverse and a heraldic eagle for the reverse, met with praise. So did two designs by Caroline Hard.

Rluintr, of Boston, for the ob-verss and reverse of the silver dollar, the obverse being a front view of the head of Washington, very life-like, with the word "Liberty'' above; for the reverse, an eagle with folded wings. The Dlrestor has not decided What further steps he will take to secure artlstlo designs for coins of the United States, but It is likely that some of the designers will be given a cnanoe to Improve on their present attempts. New Warships for Chili. It is reported that the two warships built In France for Chill are completed, armed and about to sail for that country. It Is claimed that they will be able to steam around any of the ships the Insurgents have, and If they ever re ash Chilian Waters the naval supremacy of the latter will be seriously disputed.

The General Pinto is now being -manned by German, Bwedlsh, Norwegian and English sailors, and several European effioers have taken service. It is hinted that one of the two ships will be provided with a new and very wonderful dynamite guni which will threw 600 pounds of dynamite three miles with as much accuracy as an Armstrong rifled cannon will an ordinary sheU. This dynamite gun will be mouated on the forward deck, and, it is said. It is in every way far superior to the Zalinskl gun. It is only about one-half the length of the.

Zalinskl. Is mounted on a carriage, and can be fired In any direction almost, commanding three-fourths of a circle. Exhibit of Counterfeit Money. The proposition recently made that.the Treasury Department should make an exhibit at the world's fair of the counterfeit money in its possession has puzzled the officials a good deal. Chief Drummond, of the secret service, is In' a quandary as to what kind of an exhibit to make of counterfeit money whioh will not have a bad influence.

"The better my exhibit, the worse my snewlng. says he. MI don't know whether the publio consider It an henor or a disgraee to- bave an exhibition of the finest counterfeit bills in the world. It is certainly true that there is better eeunterfelting In this country than in aay other on the globe. One thing which, makes this so Is that our laws are not severe enough ag'alnst them.

1 England counterfeiters are sent to prison tor life. We should do the same. I am puzzled about the making of aa exhibition at the fair. It Is demoralizing, I fear, to show counter-felts promiscuously." What is Learned at College. Fifteen hundred studeats of the University of Michigan marohed in a body to the depot to welcome the baseball team, returning victorious from the Michigan-Harvard match.

Each man was armed with a fish-horn, fiddle or some ether diabolical Instrument, upon which ne exerted himself to drown his neighbor. Fireworks and colored fires were displayed along tne line of msrob. the citizens uniting In the Jollification. Upon the- arrival of the train the members of the team were borne on the shoulders of their comrades to a. large wagoa, to which ropes were attaohed and 300 students drew them to tse campus, where a large bonfire was lighted and the hilarity continued till long after midnight.
