THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D.C.. WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 19. 1890. G STAR, GTON: THE EVEN WASHIN THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper and as an Advertising Med! is worth ban the otwer papers published ww The memorial of the District bar association to Congress, praying for the establishment of a court of sppeals in the District, which is printed elsewhere in Tux Star, shows conclusively the Urgent need of relief in some shape to the present District court and to the delayed seekers for justice among citizens. Doubt is expressed whether in any state of the Union there are so few judges in proportion to the population, and it is pointed out that this comparison would full short of doing justice to the District because it makes no allowance for the important duties devolved upon the judges by reason of the fact that the District contains within its limite the Capi- tal of the United States. In addition to the local litigation there is a large class of cases growing out of governmental affairs, The number of cases on the calendars of the various courts is constantly increasing, though special efforts have been made to prevent this increase, and though there were for eleven weeks during the last vear two special Circuit Court terms for jury trials in progress. The jury cases to be tried in the Circuit Court were brought into court im 1837, and the general term is bearing cases that were appealed in 1887. The memorial shows that to reach a final hearing in the Supreme Court of the United States in a civil case triable by jury, originating in the District, under the most favorable cir- cumstances eight or ten years will be occupied. Itis very clear that the District needs an en- largement and improvement of its machinery tor the disposition of litigation. The law's de- lays should not be unusually tedious and ex- peusive at the capital, When the courtsare clogged the general progress is impeded. It ia boped that Cougress will give prompt atten- tion to the matter of providing relief. Col. Hains states that two hundred thousand dollars will secure deep navigation for Wash- ington. When it is remembered that the total #mount appropriated for the improvement of the Potomac, including the flats, is less than two million dollars out of the hundreds of millions that have been expended on the rivers of the country, the sum named for deepening our harbor appears insignificant. It ought to be granted without demur. The Potomac will be the scene of some of the greatest public improvements for the benefit of the capital which the next few years will bring. The work of reclaiming the flats ought to be vigorously prosecuted and speedily completed. The present Long Bridge with the obstructions to the flow of the river which it offers should be removed. New bridges across the Potomac should be built, and the harbor should be deepened. The heulth aud business of the capital will both be benefited by these improvements. The re- claimed flats should be so guarded at the outer edge as to serve as a wall to the Jower city against floods. The removal of the Long Bridge dam and the deepening of the channet will also aid in the protection of the city against an invasion by the Potomac. Security against floods in addi- tion to-its obvious advantages to the city will Gentlemen may choose from 50 dosen Scarfs, repre- senting the correct styles colors for spring wear, ‘or only 44 CENTS EACH, A display of these goods will be made tomorrow sfternoon in the window cor ner of 12th street and Pennsylvania avenue.

Such tracks can then be lowered to high-water mark with little danger of being submerged by the Potomac. Of course the expressed fear of the railroad that its tracks may be wet is largely assumed since ite tracks run into its present station at lower than high-water grade. But the finished flats with a sea wall will remove every vestige of foundation for its argument against a sinking of the tracks. $$ “Friend” writes to inquire if the allegations made by Father Chiniquy that Tur Star re- fused to insert in his advertisement the subject of bis lecture is true. The facts are these: ‘Through an oversight at the advertising counter of Tae Stan Father Chiniquy was allowed to insert the following atrociously libelous para- graph im his advertisement im Wednesday's Sap: “Last evening the church was full to hear the illustrious orator on the murder of Abraham Lincoln. He charged it upon the Jesuits and ave overwhelming proofs,” It is needless to say that Tue Srar does not knowingly admit to ite advertising,or any other evlumns, hibelous and offensive charges of this kind, whether they are leveled against any re- ligious denominations or any other class of the community or individual citizens; and the clerks at the advertising counter were directed to take precautions that this rule of the office should not again be violated by Father Chini- quy or anybody else, Father Chiniquy and his friends have there- fore no just cause of complaint against THe Star. The exclusion of offensive and libelous matter like that quoted above is not the result of anew rule of the olfice, nor the new applica- tion of a rule. It has existed and been en- forced for years against all denominations, corporations, firms, and imdividuals, without regard to belief or interest, whenever they have undertaken to abuse their privilege or for all 12¢c.

Washington not only ‘wants more water but it wante better water. it wants every provision to be adopted which will secure for the muddy Potomac sufficient op- portunity to settle and will protect the water from any contamination on its way to the con- samer. The capital not only wants water everywhere but it wants it to drink. The water-taker of the District is a swindled man, He is compelled to pay for additional water to be secured through « tunnel, which he does pot getand is not hkely to get, aud the water that is furnished him is mud. eet poaasemnarsties 5 Ofall the great actors in the Berlin conference of 1873 ouly Bismarck, Salisbury and Wadding- | touremain.
