THE EVENING STAR. ASHINGTON TUESDAY ... January 10, 1888. ‘The Evening Star has a regular. boa Ade daily circulation more than trebli that of any other daily paper published in Washington, and much greater than that ofall the other daily papers here added together. =< = The announcement that W additions} street railway factiities has brought down upon Congress a flood of applications for franchisen Roads are proposed to run from every- ‘where to nowhere, with unlimited privileges of extension, the cars to be propelled by electricity, cable, steam, and horse-power, respectively, and to fan some at grade and others ac an elevation, It a fraction of the proposed bills were passed, the alr as Weill as the surface of the earth wouM be full of transportation facilities, So corapletely is the fleld ovcupied prospectirely, both in variety of motive power and in selection of route, that the latest of ‘the succession of expectent street railway kings are compelled to exercise considerable ingenuity to find an opening. It only remains for tne members of some new company to announce that they are associated together to ask the privilege of firing the citizens of the District out of an air gun or cannon (patented) from Tenleytown to ‘Agassiz Park and retura, With the privilege of ‘using as inexpensive a form of equipment as may De desired, and of paying to the District nothing on any account What ever. Then the list will be ait. Suburban Washington of the District m general outgide of Washington not reached by steam rail- roads, or neglected where it 1s reached, needs ad- ditional transportation facilities, and a few sec- ‘ons of the city proper, of which the needs are evl- dent, Wilt de improved by new railways or exten- sions of those which exist, Hut the grentest care whit be required in granting a single new franchise to prevent the occupation and spoiling of residence streets In Sections already fairly well supplied ‘with ears or herdics, Unnecessary annoyance and @ammage to citizens, as Well as dishgurement of the surface of the cits, shovld be avoided, Washington among the great cities is as a Woman among men. Dealed supremacy in business affairs it nads its strongest recommendation in picturesqne beanty. It should take a woman's care of It3 appearance. ‘The city's most urgent need in respect to street railways is not that cars should be run by every man’s door or on an elevated road by his second- story window, but that the conditions of railway travel should be improved, that grooved rails should be substituted for the destructive T rail, that electricity or cable should be substituted for the horse a8 a motive power, that ears should run more frequently a8 well as more quickly to prevent overcrowding as far as possible, that the rate of travel along the lnts should be reasonably uni- form and not at ratiroad speed past the transfer stations and at a snall’s pace elsewnere on the route, and that in the case of any new lines or ex- tenaions and a3 far as possible In the case of exist- ing lines these servants and masters of the public be required to pay roundly to the District for their franchises, or as a substitute to share their profits ‘with the community. permanent $< Af the bitter feeling between the miners of the Schuylkill district and the Reading company turns upon the interpretation of an oral agree ment between employers and men aa to the con- tinuance of the eight per cent advance tn wages after the ist of January, there may be room still for a compromise equally honorable to both par- ‘Wea The miners assert that as they understood the arrangement they were to continue to receive the eight yer cent, provided the collieries in the Lebign district were giving such wages. The company says that the Lebigh collferles are not paying the higher figure and that, therefore, the Schuyikill men have no claim. The ‘Whole controversy seems to turn upon the question whether the meaning of the agreement was that the Schuyiktll miners should rec advance if some of the Lehigh collieries show to pay the advance, or only if all or a majority of them should. If the latter tnterpretation 1s c or reet, the company has the right side tn the pres. ‘ent contest, so far a3 the agreement 1s concerned; ifthe former, the men have the right side. But even though by a lexai interpretation of the words of the agreement the company 1s aot bound to make the specified advance, circtm.:tances may make the Increase in wages just, and fairly de- mandable, outside of the agreement, and may open the door to an understanding between the contastants, if these circumstances alone ara re- Med upon and the wrangle over the alleged con- tract 18 dropped. + + Several days have passed, and Washington real estate still continues firm in spite of the shock of Senator Plumb’s hasty declaration that nobody is 4m a hurry to invest here. Why, Senator, this city’s real estate boom ts bigger than that of Kan- saa. If you had obstructed the amendment of the allen act on the ground that you wished to delib- erace carefully before sacrificing the exclusive right of Americans to enjoy the luxury and proat of acquiring real estate in Washington, you would have justified better your reputation as a long- eaded and level-headed patriot.
