4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., SATURDAY, ‘APRIL 26, 1890-SIXTEEN PAGE THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON: Editor, THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper inthe World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth New York Office: Room 03, Tribune Building, The Atkinson bill has been introduced in the Senate by Mr. McPherson and the Pennsylva- nia railroad is urging its immediate favorable consideration by the Senate District committee, No set of men appreciate more thoroughly than do the old members of this committee, who have gone over the whole field of the railroad controversy, the absolute necessity of securing for the people the desired relief in the im- provement of the conditions of the railroad occupation at the same time that the road’s illegal acts are condoned, its freight facilities enlarged, and broad powers of condemnation given to it’ They know very well that to grant these concessions to the road, unaccompanied by any provisions for publie relief, is to deny the people's request for a reduction of the evil of grade crossings, and tomake complete surrender to the road. The committee has before it the Ingalls, Mor- rill and Burton-Pettigrew bills, which suggest remedies for the railroad conditions in South Washington. The Atkinson-McPherson bill ought to be merged with that one of these three measures which meets the approval of the committee. By this course both the people and the railroad will receive fair play. As ex-Senator Sewell says the Bal- timore and Ohio road needs the same relief that the Baltimore and Potomac asks, But in its request for this relief the Baltimore and Ohio indicates its willingness to make expen- sive improvements in the condition of its occu- pation of East Washington, and the committee is likely to exact as consideration additional concessions to the public. The same wise and fair policy should be applied to the Baltimore and Potomac road. — The large death rate among the colored peo- ple, especially in the cities, is attracting the serious attention of the more cultivated negroes. The matter was before the Baltimore Annual Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Chureh anda report prepared by the special committee on mortality among colored people was submitted. The conclusions reached are worthy of the serious consideration of the peo- ple interested, indeed of all the people. The facts as found by this committee are briefly these: The death rate is much higher among the golored than among the white population of cities, but it does not appear to be the case among the rural population. It requires more intelligence to live in the city than in the coun- try. The colored people have moved into the cities in large numbers from the country within the past few years, They are compelled asa rule to occupy inferior quarters and are gen- erally poor. The evils which tend to destroy life among the negroes are stated to be life in ill-ventilated houses, neglect of sleep, and in- dulgence in unduly protracted festivities in hot or unventilated halls or church basements, The moral of the investigation appears to be that the colored people should not flock to the cities from the country, or that, being there, they should pay much closer attention to the preservation of health. a The farmer has been @ suffering and com- plaining individual ever since Adam did his first spring planting, but he never material- ized his woes in politics as he is doing at this Present moment. eee The Democratic optimist relies on a tariff entanglement, the Republican optimist on the sugar reduction, the silver compromise, the federal election bill and the new States of the Northwest.
