4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: FRIDAY. _-March 15, 1888, Editor. ‘HE EVENING STAR has tne fullest Local (Cireulation of any Newspaper in the Werld. and as an Advertising Medium is worth ‘Mere than all the other papers published im Washington. —S— The Commissioners are now involved in their snnual bewilderment over the meaning of the ‘“ppropriations act. The section concerning school-site purchases proves especially puzzling, partly because they have, perhaps, reasons for preferring not to understand it, and partly be- cause it is a bit of legislative patchwork, care- Jessly and inartistically put together. The ap- propriation bill, as reported to the House, pro- vided “that hereafter the Commis- sioners, in making purchases of sites for schools or other public buildings, shall do so without the employment of agents.” Asa single objection would throw out this provision in the House, the members who desired to prohibit or correct the Commis- sioners’ injudicious method of purchasing, per- mitted s modification of this blunt and sweep- tug condemnation of the system employed by the addition of other words during the hasty discussion of the section by the House. The provision as reported was treated as if it said that no purchases of school sites should be made through agents, and the additional words read: “Or through other persons not regular dealers in real estate in the District of Colum- bia, or through such regular dealers who have not had the property for aale continuously from the date of the passage of this act, and in no case shall commission be psid to more than one person or firm or greater than the usual commission.” And in this shape it succeeded im running the gauntlet of the Commissioners’ friends, and was adopted. The “or” before “greater” in the last line of the amendment seems to have been dropped some how before the bill became a law, and the Sen- ete bas added a clause giving the Commission- ers authority to condemn land for the District's uses. First there was the absolute prohibition of the employment of agents. Next there was the attempt to limit the agents employed, if any, to regular dealers in real estate who bad not obtained control of the property since the date of the passage of the uct, and ta prevent the payment of extravagant or double commissions. Lastly the power of condemnation was added. ‘The resulting law is ambiguous, and its intent can easily be evaded if there is a disposition to doso. One thing, however, is very clearly in- dicated, and that is the disapproval and con- demnation by both houses of Congress of the method of purchasing adopted by the Commis- sioners, as put into practical operation by their agent or intermediary. The confusion results from a failure to harmonize completely the varied expressions of diswpprobation which have come from the House committee, the House aud the Senate respectively. If the Commissioners are really puzzled about the law, their safest course would probably be to abandon entirely the method which has been thus condemned, and to discharge their inter- mediary forthwith. One of the duties entrusted to them and for which their salaries are paid is the purchase of school sites. If they do not wish to exercise the power of condemnation, they can purchase directly, and thus avoid en- tirely the attempted limitations upon their em- ployment of agents. If in any rare case secrecy in binding a bargain for the District is neces- sary, the Commissioners ought not to be totally without friends who will perform this service for them without employment or compensation either from the District or its vendor. Regard should be paid to the evident purpose of the law to change the present method of pur- chasing through an agent to whom the District gives its full confidence and who is supposed to cheapen prices for it, but who is alsa, the paid agent of the seller whose property he cheapens, aud whom he causes to seil to an alleged unde- sirable purchaser. As a consequence of serving two masters he is credited with cheapening the price paid by the District, upon the amount of which his commissions depend. He has been im many cases entirely unnecessary, almost alwaysexpensive, and where his compensation has been added to the vendor's price to make the total cost to the District, his employment has been illegal. The law attempts to abolish him and he ought to go. $$$ ‘The tariff on actresses requires immediate attention, and it would not be strange if a dep- utation of prominent theater managers should in a few days visit the President to urge upon him the necessity of a special session of Con- gress to take ways and means to meet the im- pending crisis. Mary Anderson's nerves are badly frayed, Mrs. Langtry’s throat has re- quired the surgeon’s knife, Pauline Hall has had to be understudied, and there is no telling where the epidemic of disability will go next. _— In Connecticut hereafter it will be crime to sell tobacco to a lad under sixteen years of age. That is a wise law that saves the youth of the land from decay. But no law is so strong as character, and the boy that hasn't stamina enough to resist the cigarette habit isn't worth the paper the law is printed on. $< Yesterday was a good average day in the French deputies. The debate propagated three incipient duels and threw Boulanger into a statuesque attitude that was seen all over France. ————_— The new District committee of the Senate is draw. Washington appreciates his intelligent services upon the District committee, and could ill afford to lose him. ee ‘Mullan still strides the stout deck of the Nip- sic, and the Olga is not the murderous all speedily discover the p it to themselves, ——— THE ¥VENING STAR: WASHINGTON.
