4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D. C. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 188 THE EVE G STAR, WASHINGTON: WEDNESDAY. November 27, 1989. CROSBY &, NOYES. ‘iresiation and as an Advertising Medium i worth — — Kew York Office: Room 93, Tribune Building, The suggestion of the District that it will submit to an issue of bonds to supply a guar- antee fund, in case that is absolutely necessary to secure the holding of the world’s fair at the capital, should not be so pushed to the front and given such prominence as to indicate that it isthe method of procedure which is ap- proved by the city; for such an indication will invite the very emergency which the issue of bonds will meet, but which it is hoped will not arise. Washington has steadily contended that the exposition of 1892 should be given by the nation directly and not by any city asa local enterprise. It does not wth- draw from that position, even to advance its own local claims to selection. It has persist- ently maintained that the exposition should not be disposed of by auction among contend- ing cities. It will not now voluntarily enter the lists as a bidder in such anauction. Wash- ington does not wish to give the fair as a local enterprise, mortgaging its taxable property for Bfteen millions in order to raise the necessary funds, It consistently maintains its contention that the United States should hold a national celebration in 1892, and it suggests the national capital as the appropriate site of such an entertainment, not as the host itseif at the proposed reception of nations. If the nation gives the fair at the seat of gov- ernment the celebration is likely to be a greater success than if it is conducted as a local enter- prise by New York, Chicago, St. Louis or Washington. There will be less danger of a deficit, and greater means and greater compen- sation in indirect benefits to meet a deficit if one should occur. The people of Washington are desirous thatif the fair is held here the whole republie shall back the enterprise, for such backing will assure its success. Congress ought to appropriate directly for the exposi- tion, and after it has ended, hold the exposi- tion buildings for use as the exclusive property of the United States. The nation ought to have no partners in this enterprise, not even the national capital. Great suffering must undoubtedly follow the fire at Lynn, Mass., yesterday, by which sev- eral million dollars’ worth of property was de- stroyed and eight thousand operatives were thrown out of employment. The weather is much colder up there than here; the shops in which food and clothing and fuel can be bought were comparatively few at any time, and many of them were clustered within the district swept by the flames; the operatives are poor people, cut off from their daily work and wages, and few have laid by enough to enable them to meet such an exigency promptly. They will need aid from outside, and without deiay. Boston will probably send the first re- sponse to their appeal; but the other leading cities of the Union will not be far behind if their aid is desired. While such a considera- tion ought not to delay the relief of those who suffer, the thought will naturally arise that the heaviest share of the defrayal of the cost of such a disaster as yesterday's ought to be made te fall upon the manufacturers who put a whole community in peril by erecting shoddy buildings in the heart of » densely populated city for the sake of saving a few dollars on the first plant. ———> + = The District will pay its full share of the cost of the actual increase of the water supply when an effective extension of the water-works sys- tem has been accomplished. It is also charged with a share of the cost of the congressional investigation which determined that the tun- nel expenditures had been wasted, and that the national government through the negligence and misconduct of its agents was responsible for the loss, These payments are enough. The nation cannot afford to be so petty and contemptible as to extort from the taxpayers of the District more than a million dollars and give them nothing whatever in return, in order to meet losses for which the District is not in the remotest degree responsible. The Dis- trict cannot afford to suffer such a loss in the conduct of a work which it had not requested to be done atits expense, over which it had no control, and which confers upon it no benefit to justify the exaction of a contribution. The United States, wealthy and careless in financial mat- ters, may be able to afford to sink several mil- lions of dollars without return in a hole in the ground, and drop the matter from considera- tion after fining one negligent agent #900. But the District as a community is poor and of few resources, and cannot submit to be dragged without any act or consent of its own into par- ticipation in such reckless and extravagant waste, as an involuntary and completely silent partner of the nation. If the law stands in its present shape the water-takers of the District will surely pay in principal and interest in the pe aaa of two millions of dollars for nothing. What is the District going to do about = Sn For what shall we give thanks? For the freedom of the whole world from bloody wars and sweeping pestilence, and its advance in the direction of what is good. For the growth of our nation in wealth and power. For the bounteous food crops which were rescued from the havoc of drought by the rains of early summer. For the equable temperature of all seasons, which has euabled the poor to live in greater comfort. For the addition of four new stars to the blue field of the fag. For the fact that the good things of the year have been so very good, and the bad things no worse. ————— Weather Clerk: “Help, help!
