\ THE EVENING STAR. —————— CROSBY S. NOYES..................Editor. SS ‘THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cireulation ef any Newspaper in the Worid. and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published New York Ofice: Room 93, Tribune Building. Though General Boulanger may not be always happy in the character of his following, he never has cause to complain of their lack of devotion to his personal interests. The story is going the rounds of the Paris clubs concern- ing a dinner party recently given by one of the leaders of fashion, at which the conversation took a very censorious turn when the name of Boulanger was mentioned. Suddenly the enter- tainment came to a standstill between courses, and the delay caused the mistress of the house such embarrassment that she summoned her butler and demanded of him the reason. He tremblingly answered that the hired waiters had positively refused, to a man, to bring im any more viands or otherwise attend at table if their political idol was treated with contempt by the guests. As there was no al- ternative, the lady managed adroitly to change the topic, and the dinner went on as before. Nothing could have happened to illustrate more forcibly the change from the old aristo- cratic to the new democratic regime, The ‘tiffs who should have dared, in the days long gone, to dictate terms to their employers in such a fashion, would have met with punish- ment as severe as swift. If, as charged, Bou- Janger is backed by the monarchical party for the purpose of restoring the system under which the court is everything und the people are noth- ing, itis evident that the masses who swear by bim most loudly do not suspect it. a In Vienna, it seems, the people who patron- ize the street-cars were among the strongest sympathizers with the recent strike among the employes. The cars, they complained, had been insufficient in number and badly over- loaded. “Platforms constructed for six are habitually crowded with a dozen persons,” says one published declaration of grievances, “while the gangways in the interiors of the cats are so blocked up with passengers that the Oocupants of seats have to force their way out of the car when they have reached their desti- mation.” Hence the moral support of a large part of the community was given freely to the strikers;and the strike, in its turn, had the effect of stirring up the authorities to enforce the letter of the car companies’ charters, which prescribe a penalty for failing to run their vehicles regularly, There is a pretty strong resemblauce between the complaints of the people of Vienna and of Washington against the car service of their respective citi A morning paper sa ‘The wrangling and contention over the local candidates for Commissioner is putting the President in a good frame of mind to ignore them all and select Commissioners from out- side the District.” Our cotemporary does not seem to be aware thatthe law requires that the Commissioners shall be resideuts of the District of Columbia; #0 the President cannot appoint outsiders even if he were so disposed, and there is no reason to believe that this is the case. The President it is well known takes great interest in District affairs, and is giving solicitous attention to the matter of selecting honest and capable Commis- sioners. No doubt he has been delayed in this task by the declination of some fit men to take the office for business or other reasons, and, no @oubt, he has beon a little perplexed by the volume of conflicting advice as to candidates, received from visiting delegations, but he listens to ail with patient consideration and evidently does not think it at all strange that in a commuuity of 250,000 people there should ‘be considerable diversity of views and conilict of interests in regard to District rule. And it is absurd to suppose that after enduring the pertinacious badgering of the horde of loud- mouthed, brazen-cheeked office seekers from all parts of the country the President is likely to get “rattled” by the respectful presentation ] to him of the views of District citizens upon matters of vital District interest. And, no doubt, the President, at the proper time, after weighing all the considerations presented, will be able to select Commissioners generally ac- ceptable to the people. i President Carnot sends money to the lunatic who exploded a blank cartridge at him. The use of blank cartridges by insane persons of homicidal tendencies is very properly to be en- couraged. + ‘The President has appointed upon the civil- service commission friends of the reform who Will see to it that the law is enforced, and will promote as far as{they can its extension. a To-day is blithesome. The sun is unclouded, the breeze is delightful and above all the news spreads through the capital that its base ball club has won a game. Undeniably it isa fine day to-day. ————— s_ The evidence of the railroad men tends to confirm the impression that on the whole the public profits by the interstate commerce law. ‘This favorable testimony comes mainly in the abape of reluctant admissions. —————— The latest fatal accident atian unguarded grade-crossing is chronicled at Kalamazoo, Michigan; and the latest legislative attempt to abolish grade-crossings is reported from Con- necticut, where a law is proposed which gives the state commissioners power to abolish such crossings on petition of city or town authori- ties, and disposes of the matter of the appor- tionment of expenses, the stumbling-block to such legislation, by providing that if the high- way was in existence before the railroad was built thefrailroad company must bear all the expense of alteration, but ifgthe highway was constructed later the ‘railroad must pay 60 per cent, the state 20 per cent, and the town or city ‘the remainder, $a Colonel John A. Cockerill, the editor of the New York World, to whom the great success of that paper is ina large measure due, contra- dicts the published statement that he has con- Sressional aspirations. He says: “I am still anxiously striving to fit myself for the calling of journalism, which I adopted some twenty-five years ago, and which I consider to be superior to any profession that I know of— Politics not excepted.” 3 Neither a seat in Congress nor any other pub- We office can offer greater power or » wider field of public usefulness than the management of a leading newspaper of the times to a bril- Mant and trained journalist like Colonel Cock- erill. The newspaper man may perhaps enjoy without permanent injury a holiday trip into Politics, but the serious and effective work of his life will be done in his profession. Colonel Cockerill is wise in refusing to permit his thoughts to be diverted even temporarily from the important and responsible journalistic du- ties which he is so admirably fitted to perform, and which he is performing with such distinc- ton, 9 The deadly cigarette did the business for most of the ship's company on the whaling bark Sea Fox.
