THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, THE EVENING STAR. WASHIN pits 10, 1890. FRIDAY. CROSHY 5, NOYES THE EVENING STAR has the fallest Local Cirealation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than ail the other papers published im Washington. Mew York Office: Room 93, Tribune Building. SS ss This is Washington's day in the world’s fair site discussion. If the United States has done anything in the past to be proud of, if it has aught of power, progress and wealth to exhibit to its sister nations, it certainly has means enough to meet the cost of the display and to bold ® national celebration at the national capital If its capital were unsuitable in any respect for world’s fair purposes there might be excuse for locating the exhibition at some point more favored. But the capital is the most beautiful city in the world, and its streets, parks, and reserva- tions, its public buildings and private houses are in themselves tribute to the greatness of the nation which all wno have seen it acknowledge without a moment of doubt or hesitancy. It is easy of access by rail and water; its climate is grateful; its citizens are hospitable; its history is the nation’s history; its environments are still in the beauty of nature; it is the pride of the people and the focal point of all that is highest and best in the progress and cultivation of the republic. With the celebration located in Washington uo local jeatousies could exist, and the New Yorker, the Chicagoan and the St. Louisan could enter into the success of tho un- dertaking as he now does in everything per- taining to the improvement of the city as the national capital. Washington is the rival of no city in the land. It stands alone, the foster child of the states east, west, north and south, and whatever of benefit comes to it is a benefit to those who cherish it, and its glory is their glory. If we are to have a national exhibition im 1892 it can be held in no city save the na- ‘tion's capital. a ‘The conference yesterday between commit- tees of the board of trade and the vice presi- dent of the Pennsylvania railroad can only be viewed as preliminary. A tSlerably clear idea of what the railroad wishes from Washington and from Congress was obtained, but Mr. Thompson had neither the authority nor the disposition to indicate what concessions by way of return the railroad would make in improving the conditions of its occupation, Practicaily citi- zeus are asked to co-operate in the proposed legislation of the last Congress for the rail- road's benefit, legalizing its present illegal holdings, and giving it general powers of con- demnation, without the promise of the relief of single grievance of which the people com- plain. This proposed legisiation was defeated in the last Congress, through the unwillingness of our legislators to consider the matter of further concessions to the railroad, apart from thst of additional protection to the lives and property rights of the people. The whole mat- ter of the location of the stations, approaches to stations, grade-crossings, past violations of law by the road, and the increase Of freight facilities ought to be settled in con- junction, and, if Washington and the railroad are to co-operate in disposing of the question permanently, propositions and concessions must come from both sides. When the railroad has considered what the people ask and is ready to indicate what it will do, the people will doubtless be ready to declare a decision upon the road’s proposition for its own bencfit, Another conference, which is reasons to be expected, may be more fruitful of results than yesterday's informal and irresponsible conver- sation. $$ + = How is Mr. Springer’s proposed grand boute- vard from the Capitol to the monument to cross the railroad tracks that cut the mall? Will there be a grade crodsing on this national ave- nue with or without gates and watchmen, or will the visitor to the capital be narrow bridge. furnishing a fine vi: steam, smoke and dirt of the railr ured street, and under which locomotives pass to and tro, whistling and letting off steam aud lending speed to the slowest borses?. ‘The lack of wisdom in disposing of part of the original Capitol grounds for private purposes is becom- ing apparent, and Mr. Springer propo~ a eagure to correct it, But that sale doos far less injury to the publie reservation and to the historic purposes concerning its use aud adorn- ment than the gratuitous permission to the Failroad company to occupy and distisure a strip of land, cutting in two parts the stretch of park between the two greatest buildings of the government. A broad drive ruaning through the mall from Capitol to President's House ought not to be straight, stiif and formal. but shocld display curving lines of beauty. Above all it should take its way through active surroundings for its entire length and not dis play railroad yards to the view of the delighted Visitor nor expose bis life to danger at a Wash- imgtom grade crossing. If the boulevard is to come, the tracks must first go, <<< - In the House diseussion of the District appro- priation bill it was shown that the percentage @f increase in the amount of the bill for 1891 was only 8 per cent. while for 1890 it was more than 9 per cent, and for 1889 it was more than 15 per cent. The natural growth of the District is rapid, increasing every year, and demands a corresponding increase in the provision for eurrent needs. The Senate ought to harmonize the District appropriations with the District Recessities and the District's tax-mouey in the proper ratio of increase. We waut wise devel opment of the capital, and not an enlargemen of our unavailable surplus. - ————— oe Judge W. D. Kelley, “the father of the House,” after thirty years’ continuous service as@ representative from Pennsylvania, rested yesterday, aud the place which has known bim #0 long will know him no more forever. Farn- est in his convictions, industrious in his duties, strong in his sense of justice, ripe in experi- ence and versed in the requisites of his posi- tion. be leaves a vacancy which may not be sited. tiene The commissioner of agriculture for Vermont has painted bis state red by publishing a map givineg all towns having 1,500 or more acres of vacant land in that brilliant color. The rest is left white, and the showing makes the people feel blue. $+ A session of congress always draws the world’s fair to Washington. oo General Schofield, notwithstanding he is prominent in Washington society circies, shows bad form in his general order to the army fixing the hour for dinner not earlier than 12 m. nor later than 12:15 p. m. Six o'clock p. m. is the Proper dinner hour, of course. ee There are only 460,516 unadjudicated and Pending claims on file in the pension office. Some of them are meritorious. ——_ + It would take Baltimore a long time to be- come accustomed to « reform ballot, a The grip is departing from New York.

Montana people want to know why they can't have as many Senators as Dakota and Virginia, Iowe is to be pitied. Her house of represent- stives is tied aud her people are tired.
