THE EV ENING STAR, WASHINGTON: WEDNESDAY. OROSRY 8. NOYES, The Evening Star has a regular, permanent bona fide daily circulation more than treble that of any other daily paper published if Washington, and much greater than that ef all the other dnily papers here added together. THE STAR cannot undertake return rejected communications. Whowiwh %© possess their manuscregpts, J we used, should Keep a copy. EF Matter of whatever character intended for Pudlication musi, if us appearance the same day ts devired, rench the office not tater than 12 Celoek noon. EF No attention paid to Anonymous Letters of __ Commveniertions on any subject, Those who leave the city during the summer car have The Star mailed to them for any length af time, and the address changed as often as desired. 62 Mail subscriptions must be invariably paid in advance, at the rate of 5O cents per month, for the term desired. While the more serious charges made against the District Commissioners are apparently unsus tained, and while the pubite presentation of these accusations In the absence of substantial proot goes beyond the limits of proper criticism, the Fight to disenss the gets and plans of the munt- elpal government ts not to be abandoned because Of its occasional abuse. ‘The lecture to “the local Press” contained in the preface furnished by the District Commissioners to Capt. Symons’ report 13 wholly uncalled for. That por tion of the press of Washington which ean at all be regarded as an exponent of local pubie sentiment has the real interests of the Dis. trict as much at heart as the Commisstoners ean possibly have, whether as individuals or as a gov- erning body, and itis moreover quite as intellt- gent and consetentious In the course It pursues as ‘they can be. When the Commisstoners suygest that critictsm upon their methods and meas- ures ts unwarranted and against the public good, they fall intoa foolish and trouble-breed- ing mistake. The press has a clear duty to perform to the public in thts as in other matters affecting the general weifare, and those in charge Of it are usually better capable of judging what ‘that duty ts and how it should be performed than even the District Commisstoners. ‘The press will doubtless continue to exercise tts right to criticise as Well as its duty to praise, on appropriate occa stons, the acts of those in power. Complaints, for instance, about the methods and plans of the ‘water department preceded the unsustained charges of corruption and remain when the latter are disposed of. There was and {s foundation for these complaints, though some objections have been obviated by the acts and state- ments of the Commissioners. It 1s the general opinion that the water-bills should be delivered at the houses of takers, as heretofore. ‘The new schedule of water-rents Is sald to be a move in the direction of equity. While there will be hardships under any method of guessing at the probable consumption of water, the numerous fn- stances of Inequality arid absurdity which have deen developed under the present method suggest that stil further progress may be made in the di- rection of a more equitable apportionment of the cost of water In proportion to consumption, with- out, however, increasing even incidentally the Water rents. ‘The cost of water In this city should Bteadily decrease, and netther Congress nor the Commissioners should take such action as to work an increase. ‘The apprehension expressed by the Commis- Stoners that opposition to them endangers the Present form of government 1s also thought to be ‘Without foundation. Unsustained charges of corruption, widely circulated, doubtless injure ‘the progress of the District by prejudicing and alarming Congress. But nether proper not im- ‘Proper criticism threatens the present form of government. The dest and, ft may be said, the general sentiment of this community is that the existing form 13 both the best and cheapest gov- ernment the District has ever had or Is Itkely to have, and the purpose (of the great body of the Commisstonets’ critics 18 not to destroy or change, ‘Dut to improve it ana make it more worthy of per- petuation. The danger to it is to be found, there- fore, not in the senseless and noisy clamor joined ‘wo general denunciation 30 often indulged in, atin the manner tn which the government 1s ‘administered by those trom time to time charged ‘with that duty. If the predicted change ever comes it wil! come not from the wild hostility of @he enemies of the present form, but because of Cone opposition and criticism as a by C to exist. These prog: Commissioners have it largely in ‘their power to remove and to prevent. If they Perform their duties with wisdom, diligence and Tdelity,—with an eye single to the good of the ‘whole District,—and not in the interest of any ‘oeality, combination or influence, there De nothing to fear, On the other hand, they inl have the strong and sure support of the popu- Jar will,—which, whether in favor of or opposed ‘Wo those for the time being in power, is certain to ‘Assert itself, and to prevail in the end, $< a ‘Why 1s it that ail experts in hygiene agree that ‘Women ought to exereise in the open alr, but no one of them has ever suggested a means of exer- cise which fills all the requirements without in- ‘viting the criticism of his professional brethren ¢ Horseback-riding has been censured for inducing concussion of the spine; tricyeling for its danger 0 certain internal organs; rowing for producing pal- Pitation of the heart; croquet for rounding the shoulders; swimming for the exhaustion it causes, as heavily clad as our social conventions require @ woman to be when she goes into the water; and 80 on through the list. The advent of lawn- tennis was hafled as offering a happy solution of ‘the diMeulty; but now comes an eminent physi- clam who declares that that cheerful sport 4s damaging the sex by abnormally developing the Yight arm and shoulder and making the body lop- Sided in consequence. ‘There ts one way of meeting ‘ais objection and preserving the just popularity of the game, and that 1s the cultivation of ambi- dexterity. Left-handed tennis would add variety toa tourney. If each alternate game were required ‘to be played with the racquet held in theleft hand, and such changes made in the service as would com. ‘Port with this condition, more skill would be de- Mmanded on the part of all who took part, and a fresh element of uncertainty added to the fortunes of play. The fact probably ts, how. ever, with regard to tennis, as with regard to horsemanship, cycling, boating, swimming and other favorite forms of out-door exercise, that ‘whatever injury comes from them is the result, not of rational practice, but of over-induigence or abuse, eo Colonel Crocker ts another Pacific raflway mag- ‘ate who refuses to answer a simple question, put to him by the investigating commission, as to the ‘use of the company’s money for the purpose of influencing legislation. In view of the informal character of (he commission's sessions, a refusal to answer such a question fs equivalent to an affirmative response in every instance. The Strin- gent rules of a court of justice are not enforced, ‘and if @ witness is disposed to enter into explana. tions, he ts allowed to do so with the utmost free- dom. Had Colonel Crocker frankly ansWered the erucial question and then proceeded to state ex. Pository facts, nobody would have cavilled, and ‘iis commentary would have traveled as fast and astar aa his response. As it is, he leaves the stand with his own reputation and that of his company badiy smirched, and with a threat of a fmost disagreeable legal process hanging over his head —$—$——» + ______ Prince Ferdinand returns the compliment.
