—_— THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., WED) THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON: ‘WEDNESDAY January 4, 1888, CROSHY S. NOYES... Editor. ‘The Fvening Star has a regular, permanent bona fide daily circulation more than treble that ef any other daily paper published in Washington, and much greater than that efall the ether daily papers here added together. ‘The opinions of the Pacific rafiroad magnates on he reports of the investigating commission are wot all as flattering as might be desired, but they ar probably about what we bad a right to expect grou that sourve, The majority report is accorded the scant courtesy Of & poon-pook, together with something in the shape of a coun ter demonstration. Senator Stanford, for ex- ample, argues that the equities in the case show ‘a balance against the Government and in favor of ‘he roads, instead of the reverse, and cttes in proof the familiar Mlustration of the difference in the ex- pense of mail carriage alone West of the Missouri river. This service, be declares, which, in 1946, ‘cost $7,000,000 a year, and Wok sighteen days to perform, Was limited to a maximum load of 1,000 poundseach trip. To-day the sane distance is trav- tied in four days, the load will average i8tons a trip, and yet the cost to the Government does not exceed $1,000,000 a year. “It Government al- Jowed us the amount theyZpaid for a much inferior service,” he added, “it would have more than paid Off the debt long ago.” This is doubtless true, Dut it does not answer the indictment contained fm the report. A vastly saperior mail service Was one of the objects the Government had in view in making any conces- sions Whatever to the builders of the Pacific roads ja the first piace. If the Goverament should ‘wheel about and say that the equities claimed by the raliroads were in turn offset by thetr valuable land grants, which side would the balance be ou? If A, Who owns a vacant building lot next to his own house, gives it t0 Band lends him, at a rea- sonable rate of interest, enough money to butid on At, he provably has In view the advantage of having ‘4 peighbor close at hand In cnse of emergency, and ‘o€ Gnding his own house easier to warm, bY its having one side no loager exposed to che winter's ‘wind.§ Ut Would, therefore, be imprudent for B to try to shirk payment of part of his debt by Insist- ing that A should deduct therefrom the amount hy had saved in coal bills, ‘To the rainonity report the railway speculators ‘Youchsafe no answer except aa expression of scorn, Russell Sage declares that it proves its author to be “merely @ common scold;” Cotes P. Huntington deseribes Mr. Pattison as a “washer- ‘woman:” and Mr. Stanford treats the report “with entire contempt,” and says that “the man who aaade ft will be lucky if he does not get intoa Junatie asytum in less than stx months,” all this fs hard upon ex.Gov. Pattison, but it does not prove anything. Even common scolds have their Sphere of usefuiness; to be a Washerwoman Is no @isgrace, provided that the washing is well done ‘und there are piaces worse than lunatic asylum: Yo whieh financiers who trifle with otaer people's money are sometimes consigned. ——— ‘The Pian of paying water expenses from the feneral taxes Was recommended and ably advo- cated last night by the subcommittee on water of the citizens committee. The subcommittee’ gen- eral proposition 1s to pay the whole expense of ‘Water distribution from the general taxes, except the lasing of supply mains directly in front of Property and not at street intersections. The argument Is:strong that the cost of supplying ‘water to those who do not or cannot afford to pay should be met by the whole community and not merely by those citizens who pay water rents and are taxed for water main. It 1s clearer, however, ‘Yhat the expenses arising from the construction and extension of a general system of water works, advancing values in all parts of ‘he District, should be borne by the whole com- munity, than that the current expenses of sup. plying Water to present users should be thus sinposed upon all taxpayers. Owners of suburban and unimproved eity property may find objections Yo the latter proposition, which would not be Tenable against the former. ‘Those who advocate The assumption of water expenses by the city oubtiess feel, however, that their labors would be fruitiess if any modification of the plan should | prevent the complete removal of the present system of water rents, which is necessarily arbitrary and inequitabin, Practically, a chotce of evils is presented. Either - the vex. atiows system of water rents must be Fetained, or the general taxpayer must assume The grievance as Well ag the expense of the water taker, and pay a debt which in part may not prop. erly fall upon him. In proposing that water ex. Penses shall be pafd from the general taxes, notn- Ing 1% sald as to exemption of the United States from sharing in the current expenses. But it may de assumed that Congress is expected to attend to this branch of the matter. By the original outlay fm connection with the water works the United States Government has fairly entitied 11seif to the free use (not waste) of Potomac water. The Dis. Yrict has some just unsettled accounts against the Government, but none of them arise from the use of Potomac water. $a ‘The shrewdaess with which ex-Mayor Cramer, ‘the Hackettstown (N. J.) defaniter, conducted a art of his swindling operations, rises almost to ‘Yue dignity of Ligh art. He not only “worked” the Dusiness men of the town, but won the hearts of fiteen or sixteen susc»ptible women of means, ‘whom he wheedied out of their money while keep- ing their pretended betrotual secret. How elever- Jy he managed this s shown by the fact that one of these Women had claimed him as her husband- @lect for some sixteen years, and the date for their marriag? had been fixed several mes; and yet either did she suspect his affairs with the others, nor did they suspect his relations with her, although all were ulving within the same county. Je will be noted tbat Mr. Cramer studiously avold- 4 running his neck Into the noose by Which so Many Vulgar swindiers are caught. He did not Marry auy of his Mancces, and thus averted the anger of extradition for bigamy, or of a suit for ivoree, with alimony. The oniy judgments that can beeatered up against him are for obtaining inoney Uy Toundabout and Irregular praetices, and these are notorionsty hart offerses (o prove pon tan who bas ween at ali cunning Im covering up his tracks. > -—=____ At last tue clamorous shareholders in Mr. Keely’ stock company have a fair prospect of finding out ‘What there is to Lis motor. They have bought a “pig im a poke,” and it 1s natural that they shou! Rave some curiosity to see what it looks lke after hearing it squeal 30 long. One Bennett C. Wilson, Who knew Keely in less prosperous days, and em- Ployed him in mecttanteal work, claims to have had coutract With tae inventor under which he was to be given @ certain interest tm all the devices @iscovered or constructed by Keely. He is now wutng for specific performance, demanding that Keely sual! come into court and prove whether the lebrated motor is or is not the same thing which ‘Was Invented and assigned outright to himself Dearly twenty yearsago. If it is, Keely will, of course, have to make an accounting of profits, ‘Tae ouly Way this can be escaped Is by showing ‘Wat the present motor 1s not the same aS the old one, and In proof of that it will be necessary, of course, to show what the new one ts. The progress Of the sult will be watched with interest by a Great many people who bougnt thetr motor stock at ous huudred cents ou the dollar and were glad to sell it out at six. eo Martin Irons, the labor agitator whose daily Dulivtins once made Wall street tremble and ‘Whose vole was always for war, 1s now reduced Weeping a little stall for the sale of oysters, candies, nuts and plaster images in a St. Louls Maret.
