4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: ‘TUESDAY. CROSBY S. NOYES. — re ——— SHE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Dledium is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. The event which has taken place to-day in Baltimore is not celebrated by a blast of trum- pets, parades, and fire-works, but it is of greater importance to that city than the honor of serv- ing as the scene of a centennial celebration. ‘The opening of what is claimed to be the best constructed and best equipped hospital in the world is a notable achievement of the present, which will doubtless itself enjoy in the future the honor of centennial commemoration. After many years of intelligent investigation and Preparation to carry out the expressed will of Johns Hopkins, that the hospital founded in pursuance of his will should in structure and arrangement compare favorably with any other similar institution in this country or in Europe, his trustees present s magnificent in- stitution to Baltimore, to the nation, and to the world. The Hopkins hospital is, in one of its aspects, merely a noble and valuable local charity for the relief of suffering in the city in which it is located. But in another aspect it is a field of experiment and original investigation into the causes and treatment of disease, putting the new world abreast of the oldin the possession of institu- tions which add to the resources of medical science and bless all mankind. The total cost of the hospital, which Johns Hopkins designed to be an adjunct to the university for higher education which he founded by his will, has been more than two million dollars, Washing- ton, with its wealth of educational appliances and resources, indicating it as the natural seat of such institutions in the United States, longs fora Johns Hopkins. If Washington may be blessed with some benefactor through whose munificence the capital will be enabled to utilize to their full extent its advantages as an educational center, a benefit more precious than that of the pomp and show of the local celebration of an inanguration centennial will be enjoyed. a The civil war has been ended for nearly a quarter-century. Why, then, should two old comrades-in-arms fall to quarreling over a single incident of it in which history has ac- corded both an honorable part. Nobody ex- | cept, perhaps, Admiral Porter, will deny that Gen. Butler was a good fighter. Nobody ex- cept Butler has refused the same credit to Por- ter. Has not each had glory enough without striving to pull the other's reputation down? pal sorntiersns noone seasaaanene There is a bill before the Massachusetts legis- lature to regulate the use of money in elec- . which has called forth from a leading te politician the remark that he be- lieves in the use of money in politics, ‘just as it is used in church work and the temperance movement.” If money were used in politics in no other manner than in church work this restrictive legislation would not be proposed. The Bay State politician might supplement this proposed measure with another to regulate the use of money for bribery and corruption in church work, if he thinks that the latter legis- lation can find anything upon which to operate. —_—_—__$—- In a quaint letter written by George Wash- ington to a personal friend on the day he was appointed commender-in-chief of the continen- the latest news of the general’s move- ments is conveyed, with {the ‘concluding re- mark: “As to other articles of SIntelligence I must refer you to the Gazettes, as the Printers pick up everything that is stirring in that way.” What would the immortal George have said it| ™7 he could have come back long enough to wit- ness the work of “the Printers” of our day in picking up “Articles of Intelligence” enough to fill mammoth sheets of closely set type, in spite of the fact, if some of them are to be be- lieved, that the committees in charge used every endeavor to defeat their purpose. The Printer in our day who contents himself with merely picking up what happens to be stirring is soon left behind in the race by his neighbors who poke and prod and stir things up them- selves. If the Senators who went to the centennial celebration in New York were shabbily treated, and feel az badly over it as the special corres- pondents of certain distant papers represent, let them take heart of hope. The Columbus celebration will take place in this city, and the Senators can see to it that the committee who imposed upon them are given the poorest hotel accommodations and the worst places from which to watch the procession. They have oaly to bottle their vengeance for a trifl- ing matter of three years, ———— The superintendent of the Cook county insane asylum, whose subordinates iil-treated the patients, and, it is said, killed one of them, has been indicted, as responsible for the acts and neglects of his underlings. He doubtless feels that it is the misfortune of his life that he is not military man, to be tried by the Lydecker court-martial. For clearly ‘in spaces so confined” and dirty and offensive asthe cells of the insane (or tunnel cavities) no self-re- sSpecting military supervisor can be expected to perform his duty of inspection thoroughly, and it is now generally understood that accord- ing to military law all responsibility for the acts of subordinate agents ceases “in spaces so confined.” — New York seems bound to have a permanent arch at Fifth avenue and Washington Square to commemorate the late centennial celebra- tion in that city. The idea is a good one; but when will it be carried out? Judging by the progress made in the erection of her proposed monument to Grant, it is perhaps too much to it to be finished in time for the next cel- ition, a hundred years hence, but it cer- tainly ought to be completed by 2039. $$$ Gov. Waterman, of California, wants to annex Sonora, Lower California and Chihuahua, and Minister Romero's magazine article of protest against annexation schemes is supplied with a reason for its existence. ————— The public controversies of to-day are, first, that of Butler vs. Porter, topic of discussion “Who's a coward?” and, second, that of demo cratic revenue-reformers ts. democratic pro- tectionist, topics of discussion: “Who shall win the chairmanship of the national committee?” —————— - —_____ The statute of limitations has run against Gen. Butler's claim in the matter of alleged displays of cowardice in the capture of New Orleans. He speaks too late. —__$$——--———___ The talk of an extra session of Congress in the fall shows the drift of public opinion toward the idea of longer or continuous sessions. The reason of the demand for an earlier meeting is that otherwise no work will be done before the holiday recess. As that reason is one that ap- plies every year equally with this, an amend- ment to the Constitution, changing the regular date of convening, would save a vast deal of trouble, uncertainty and expense. €@ The principal value of Tus Eventxe Bran to advertisers is the fact that it is not thrown away after once being read, but passes through half a dozen pairs of hands at least be- fore being tossed aside. This is the advantage presented by a family newspaper.
