Acreditable building ought to bo erected on ground purchased by the government at some point reasonably convenient to the business center. The urgency of the need for a build- ing is so great that the city will have no pa- tience with opposition toa site, upon which the i Senate and House committees may possibly agree,on the part of persons interested in other proposed sites. For the legislator or legislators who can harmonize the conflicting views of the houses of Congress concerning the location of the building, which e so long delayed its erection, Washington wil! fee! the profoundest gratitude. it will also extend its special regards to those legislators who are Willing for the welfere of the city to sacrifice their personal views concerning the most advantageous location, for the capital would a thousand times prefer the selection of 8 tite not in all respects the most eligible to in- ection and a continuance of the present dis- graceful condition of affairs, In working for a new post office; for a new bridge across the Potomac, abolishing the long bridge; for a wise extension of the city sireots; for a code of laws and an enlargement | aud improvement of the District's jucicial | sachinery: for a settlement of the railroad | problem, and for adozen other projects of | present practical importance to the city’s in- terests, the energy which has been aroused in behalf of a world’s fair may wisely and profit- ably be expended oo It is said that the Tilden heirs have with- drawn their objections, that some sort of com- promise has been arranged and that the pro- posed library is to be established under the will of the deceased statesman. In this con- nection it is a notable fact that the new library is expected to be next in the country to the Congressional Library in the number of volumes and to have the circulating feature, Got possessed by its great rivals, the Astor and the Lenox. New York is to be congratulated on this settlement of her library question. The fosture of the arrangements for the new library whieh allows books to be taken out adds vastly to ite usefulness. In public libraries access to the treasures therein should be as free as possi- ble to investigators, and to that end the hours of admission should be such as to give the Forking people of ail vocations, who have small opportunities during the business hours of the | day, am opportunity to consult books, etc., at the library or to get the use of them on con- venient terms for home use. Arrangements ought to be effected whereby the department employes, and other residents of Washington, could reach the stores of information in the Congressional Library at later hours than is now possible. In order to accomplish this im- portant purpose without imposing hardship upon the librarians and the employes of the library an additional number of assistants and servitors should be provided. ——__ The steel rail manufacturers and operatives of Pennsylvania do not seem to be enamored of the proposition to reduce the stcel-rail duty from seventeen dollar? aton to ten dollars a ton. It is attributed by them to the high price of rails in England, which they think will not last, and they fear that when prices drop the American market will be flooded and our own manufactures driven to the wall, The manu- fwcturer, sensitive to his own interest, looks a | long way ahead and takes no chances.
