Tbc rcsolulton of Mr. Lanier ot Illi nois, Introduced In tho House ot Itcpre scntnllves yesterday, Instructing the Committee on Naval Affairs to Inquire Into. tbc expediency of making an lm mediate npproprlatton of $50,000,000 towards the reconstruction of the .Nary, Is broad In scope and business like in tone. We are not so sure but what It would be Hie but thine the Govern tnent could do, to innkothl, lump ap propriation, and let the rncrttiry of tho Navy proceed to Its expenditure, under the general direction of Con gress, Such a policy Is no violently con trary, however, to the pU'cc-monl method of lining things so long In ogue, that a favorable report ou Mr. J.nwlcr's rcsolulton Is hardly to be ex pected. Congress seems tn be more or vs$ tct In the singular notion, and has been for years, thnt the cconomlcil way to put through any great public Im provement, llko that of our Western water, wrrj s for Instance, or the build ing of coast defences, or tho deepen ing of harbors, or the erection of new custom houses and poslufllccf, or just nt this time, the reconstruction of tho niyry. Is to dole out the necessary ap propriations In the smallest possible In stallments, sometimes enough to tun through tho year and sometimes not, but always In such niggardly sum as to keep engineers and contractors tn n constant worry, and often necessitate nn entire suspension of operations. By this means, millions of dollars bavo been lost. Knough has been sunk in tbc Mississippi lUvcr to hive made a ship canal of It, from St. Paul down, all for the want of n compre hensive and systematic plan to begin with, and the money in hand to carry It out, without the delays incident to on annual begging expedition to Wash ington for moro funds. The annual quarrel In Congress over appropriations of this character, and tbc dickering It begets, and the dilemma In which It places members who are nnxlous to make n reputation for econ omy and at the same time keep peace wlih their clamorous constituents. Is a costly thing to the Government. In the general reduction of estimates, illicit much that Is bid and extrava gant In a smalt way, may be eliminated, It is tho meiitortous measures that In variably s uftcr the most. Now, Mr. Lawler's theory Is, If wo clearly understand It, that In the case of tho Navy, nil etbbarra"ments at tendant upon Irrccutar nud uncertain Icghlatlou, may be avilded by making au appropriation outright sufficient to carry on tho work of reconstruction for Fceral years vtlthnut lapc or inter ruption. Thtte are ample mean avail able for the setting apart of the detired fund, nod tho great work onee beurj under sucb auspicious circumstances could be completed In half the time and nt vastly less txpensc thsn on the old plan. From the luv log of the first now keel to the launching of His luushlp, tlcro would not be an Idle day at thy ship-yards or the ordnance fcunlr.cj, and tie Secretary, Instead of bslng compelled to put In a deficiency bill every winter or argue with the Naval Committee the necessity of another ap propriation, would simply report from rear to year the progress hewasraak J?, and turn In his vouchers to satisfy Congress that his drafts upon the fifty nlllton fund had been properly ex X ended. Tiik Parliamentary elections In tho Dominion of Canada will take place on tho S2d of February, and a most de termined eltoit will bo made by the Liberals to defeat tho Macdonald ad ministration, which has been steadily crowing In unpopularity ever bIocq Sir John's return to the leadership of tho Government In 1878. The financial Affairs of the Dominion are In a bad condition tho National debt Is greater by 70 per cent., taxes nro largely In creased, the tariff Is oppresslvoly pro hibitory, tho labor clement discontented as never before, BCYcrulof tho provinces threatening secession, and tho policy of the Government towards the United Slates strongly condemned by tho peo ple. Under these clrcumstunco It would apparently be no dlfilcult matter to set the lories out; but the majority to be overcome Is large, and tho party In power much belter organ I .cd for a po litical campaign than tho somewhat motley opposition. So that no definite prcillc tlons can be made as to results. GUNEIlAL CHARLES P. STONE, who died yesterday afternoon nt his home. In JNcw York, was a graduate of West Point and a distinguished o filter of the U..S, Army until 16Q2, when ho was unjustly made tho scapegoat for the unfortunate battle nt Hall's ll!uff,whcre General Dakcr was killed, nmt was sent cs n prisoner to Port Lafayette. It Is n strange fact that no order was ever is sued from tho War Department either tllsmtfBlng General Stone from his rank as brlgadler-gcneral of volunteers or 'os colonel In tho regular army, al though a new colonel was promoted to his regiment, the Twelfth, in 18-11. After tho war, when the Kbedlvo of Egypt called for Americans to reorganize; liU military forces. Gen cral Stono was named at onco by Gen cr&bvGwbt and Sherman for tho work, cnCl ho was., in ado chief of stall to tho Khcdlvo with tho raoii, of lieutenant general, and ft flrmla froi decreed glv Ing iilra Ihcr" Pascbajlo rank In tho Turkish nobility. Tho story of his work In Kgypt Is ton well known to need reproduction. After thu I.ogllsh occupation of Egypt and Iho dethrone ment of Ismail, General Stono laid down his titles and returned to America. Ills eminent abilities m nn engineer led to his selection as cngl ncer-ln chief and general BUpeilntrnd cnt of tho construction of tho pedestal of tho IlarthoUU Statue of Liberty In New York harbor, and to tho genera tion of this dale ho Is best known fur thnt work. Ills graduation from West Point, entering tho academy from his nallvo State of Massachusetts, was In 1915. lie ftrved through Iho Mexi can War and later In California with such distinguished credit as to earn two brevets. At tho outbreak of tho Itebelllon ho was tn Washington and was nsslgncd to duty with tho troops of the- District of Columbia, which ho or goulrcd and equipped for the Meld. It mi'.i:kant to be reminded now nml then that the American Kiglo still soars, and that tho spirit of our revo lutionary sires Is not entirely extinct. Wen ere thus reminded yesterday by the belligerent oratory of Mr. Frye, Mr. Hnlo and Mr. Ingalls In the United States Senate. The occasion was the f ousldcratton of the hill empowering tho President, ns a me mire of retaliation, to close Iho ports of tho United Stales Against C-umdtau imports, In c ie Great Ilrltuln persists In vlolallnghcr treaty obligations by subjecting Ameri can fishermen to indignities and out rages In Canadian waters. While agree ing with Senators generally as to thu aggravating character of these out rnges and Indlgnlttu, wo doubt the wisdom of measures of retaliation until nil oilier arguments Inva failed ; and wbt nit so happens that a'l other ar guments iU fall, au open declaration of wnr logically follows. A retaliatory policy Is a roundabout policy. Still, If worse comes to worst, we nro sitlafiud that thf Sennte 111 not h tlMte to call John Dull to sharp and summary no count. As worso lias not yet come to worst, wo nro of opinion that yester day's speeches would have been quite ns effective) If they had contained lyai bluster and less susgestlvcncss of gun powder. It would bo a prelty serious matter for the United States, In Its present condition of naval desuetude, to provoke hostilities with the first nnval power of the world ; and as Mr. Vest, who made tho only really conser vative remarks of tho afternoon, well tntd, no greater misfortune than a war could possibly happen to cither of tho parties In Interest. lie only supportol the bill, with nil Its extraordinary pro visions, for tho reason that its enforce ment was left to the discretion of the President, and the people may rest assured that Sir. Cleveland will nuke no rash use of his authority. Tun resignation of Mr. Georgo 31, Lockwood, Chief Clerk of tho Interior Department, loses to tho public service one of the most useful and efilclcnt men who has ever held a responsible trust under the Government. lie has also enjoyed a popularity correspond ing with his usefulness, und In the new business engagements which be con templates, he will huvo not only tho lest wishes of his Into nsoclate, but of citizens generally with whom ho has been brought In contact during unof ficial curee,r of half u ileca lc. Tun amount wanted by thn Fire Department for the improvement of Its service In Kat Washington Is ono item that should not hate, been dropped from the DUtrtct Appropriation bill. A slltcb In time saves nine, says the eld adsze; a fire engine In time may' tave ninety and nine. Considering the rapid Increase if Improvements on Capitol Hill, there should be a corre sponding Increase In the appliances for its protection. What tin House has omitted or overlooked In this respect, it Is to be hoped the Sunatu will duly provide for. Tun celebration of tho Centennial of the Constitution icceWed another lift tn Congress yesterday, this time In the House. The bill Introduced by Mr. Townsbend proUdcs for a joint celebration on the occasion in question In which oil tho American Republics shall participate. There Is no doubt but what they will all bo represented and take enthusiastic Interest In an an niversary so greatly entitled to their grateful remembrance. When it comes to firing up tho American heart, Mr. Ingalls Is tho fire man to put on duty. That speech of his In tho Senato yesterday was a rattling good one, looked nt from a fighting standpoint. Hut a war be tween England and the United States just now Is a luxury that neither coun try can afford, The opening exhibition of tho Kirmcs at tho National Theatre last evening was n charming and pro nounced success. Two moro oppor tunitiesto ulght and to morrow night nro presented for witnessing this unlquo cntcrtnlument. Says Admiral Porter: "I would rec ommend that Iho Government appro priate during the next ten years ten millions of dollars annually to build up tho navy and put it In position to bid defiance to any power on earth," Tun rLlliAtlplita Sott.'t America sutj etBts Itiat tho Now Jertty Legislature cm: tit to sicure such u inau as Job a L.
