THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D. c., ‘THURSDAY, THE EVENING STAR. ~ WASHINGTON: TMURSDAY . May Ss, 1890, CROSKY 8S. NOLES Editor, THE EVENING STARK bas the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the W. nnd ne an Advertising Medium is wo nore than all the ether papers published in Washington. Mr. Atkinson's report in favor of the bill making a wholesale grant of privileges to the Pennsylvania railroad, condoning its past vio- lations of the law and encouraging it to fature lawlessness, exposes clearly the weakness of the road's case. He shows what no one denies, that the road needs additional freight facilities ‘Vhese can be secured through the grant of a limited power of condemning private prop- erty, and this grant is proposed by every measure which bas been introduced in refer- ence to the road. The freight statistics have no force as an argument peculiarly and exclu- sively in favor of the Atkinson bill, There is no occasion for greater haste in enlarging the freight facilities of the Baltimore and Potomac than in increasing those of the Baltimore and Obio. The latter suffered worse in the late blockade than the form Yet latter in connection with and in con n of the in- oses to make and and will be required to make expensive im- provements in the conditions of its occupation. Similar improvements should be exacted from the former. The peculiar provisions of the At- Kinson bill not contained in the section Which grants the power of condemnation, and which is supported by the argument of necessity of increased freight facili ‘They are found in the section which delegates to the Commis- sioners for the exclusive benefit of the Balti- more and Potomac the legislative power of Congre=s to auth e such deviations from the crease of its f ex, pre are road's chartered course as side tracks. No r railroad. no other street railw no other common carrier in the city 1s to share the benefit of — this delegation of the law-making power. These peculive provisions are also found in the sec- ton which legatizes the existing illegal side- trache and confirms the illegal occupation by the road of the streets and small reservations which these tracks traverse. Mr. Atkinson ignores the fact that this s*-tion is in effect a grant of publie pr to the railroad, tion of which the commissioner of publi erous pro He treats tha case merely as | ene in w ssioners have granted | cortain } which itis @ 4 to con-| firm, “although there is no precedent for ques- tiommng their rity.” It is to be remem- bered that the Con issioners whose acts are | t 1 are former Commissioners and | t thi illegal aud um ineu that only a portion of the ted tracks were laid under per- nats from Commissiouers, and that the Supreme Court of the United ates has stated specific that Con s3 alone Las authorit; in the matter, The words of this court in the case of the 14th street side track are: ‘The title to the streets of Wash- ington is in the United States, and not in the city or in the owners of adjacent lots. It is therefore eminently proper that the right to use them for any other than the ordinary use| of streets should proceed from Congress. We are of opt when this company wishes ‘ection from the line of its | present track a Congress. it at bod; ut to deviate from its course and to oc- cupy public property is as much a new and} @istinet grant as if no former Commissioners had ever assented to the laying of a few of the i.legal tracks, npermission to do so ie An event of no little moment in the history ef cotemporary journalism occurred in the ap- pearance in Chicago last week of the first num- ber of a bright and handsome daily newsp.p er titled Te Evening Post. Well supplied as the metropolis of the northwest is in able and eaterprising journals, the new comer will make for itself if it does not finda field for which it is sp adapted, since until now Chicago has not had an afternoon paper of its size and quality, that is, 4 sueet, published at the low price of 2 cents per Something like Tae Eveste Star, for 1s of men,— ott, whos» sagacity and push made the Chicago Herald such a pronounced ess, being th» head of its management. e new venture has another clai-a to pub- which will go far towacds It keeps th» followiug head of its editorial {the Chi aes to the insp: 9 Fren ing tion of its ising patrons.” This is a new departure fora beginner. It hich few old estab- d journals dare follow. But it is the only s\uare way to treat advertisers, who have as ranch right to know what they are getting for tueir money as has the purchaser of groceries, ty goods, or any other commodity. 7% 1g Post may not have at the start as large culation as some of its old cotemporaries but it is willing its customers shall know tisallthe time.

Waar A Scramsurset Two days of that Ladies’ Sample Slipper Sale have taken about half of them. Ithas been # busy time— and the Christmas holidays don’t bring us more eager purchasers, Our shoe man says—“I am an enthusiast on Ladies’ ine foot-wear—but, frankly, [had no idea what areally magnificent lot we were buying from Messra, Gardiner & Estes uutil [landed them here all togetner.” ‘They are the model pairs—you know—of all the Ox- fords and Slippers this house has designed for this seasou—and they are the kings of the business, There's one thing we forgot to tell you the other day —the Suede and Serge Tops are in shades that will match your latest d7ess pattern. Those that are not are in neutral colors that will “go” with anything. You know how we've divided them—made only two lots, with @4 the dividing line. They run in values up to $6—similar styles are marked that now right in this city— THAT LOT Is 82.98. The other is between $4 and $3.50. THESE ARE $1.98. As we told you—as long as there are any left these prices will hold—How long that will be rests with you. SOME “CROWNING POINTS.” We have ben afraid it would turn decidedly warm before we had our Outing Caps where we could get at them. ome of these novelties are brought over from the old country, and the custom house red tape is al- ways acause of delay. But they are out of bond now and in stock. Englishmen aro wearing a Fancy Plaid Nava)-shaped Cap on their outing Jaunts, and New Yorkers have gone wild over them. It’s one of the novelties we've imported, They are more shapely than a Crush—but no amount of knocking about will hurt them, Plain Blues—too. ‘The French Opera is much like the ordinary Crush— but better quality—indestructible. They're here. It's a serious question with lady bicyclist what sort of hat is proper to wear when on the wheel. The “BIKE? answers that question. An English yacht shape—light’ cool, natty, and with just the daiutiest sort of a visor to ward off the intruding rays of sunshine, It beats the Jockey or Turbane “all noller.” Oh! has your Tennis Club decided on its colors? We've alt the combinations in wide and narrow stripes—Hats or Caps. SAKS AND COMPANY, THE COMPLETE OUTFITTERS, PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE AND SEVENTH STREET, mys Texss Goons ocd CROQUET.
