THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTOD WEDNESDA < .... May 2S, 1890, MONEY S. NOVES. 00000... Eattor, THE EVE STAR has Circulation of any fullest Local jewspaper inthe World, The Post replies to Tae Stan's exposure of the objectionable features of the Atkinson bill by dodging a disens: merits of the measure, and by ascribing Tux Stan's attacks upon the bill to personal hos- tility, oceastoned by d'sappointment at the re- jection of its arguments or those of one of its editors by a majority of the House District committee, and displayed with especial bitter- ness within the last three mouths. The Post is lame im its facts and lame in its logic. There is no feeliug of personal hostility towards the railroad in this office. Tuk Stax admires the enterprise and progressivencss which the road has displayed everywhere else than in Wash- ington. It appreciates the valuable services which the railroad, for value received, confers upon the modern community, in its capacity asa public servant. But Tax Stan, while com- mending the public servant, has steadily re- sisted the effort of the corporation to make 1t- self x public master, and to place itself above the law. The Posts statement that the posi- tion of this paper on the question is one re- cently assumed displays a reckless ignorance of local history. Tae Stan opposed the illegal encroachment of th deavored to protect it them the lives and property of the people. before the Post was born. And its most vigorous assaults upon them in the public interest were made long before the /ost's present management did the people of Washington the honor to under- take te give voice to their sentiments. Preser- vation of the city’s parks for publie ase and en- jovment. free from the ocenpation of railroads ana F private interests. was aiways oecn The principle that a “hobby” of Tur 8 corporations are as much subject to the law as individuals, and that a railroad has no right to appropriate public property, make illegal use of the streets opened to it, violate the laws concerning the speed of its trains and the guarding of its crossings, and by so doing rob the public, and destroy life and the value of private property. has always been a “hobby ot Tue Sra The claim that the rail- rouds should adopt in this city the same methods of increasing public security and convenience by the removal of grade crossings that they adopt in other cities of no greater size and less importance, is also avhobby” of Tue Stan. These hobbies have been substantially endorsed by every public meeting dealing with the railroad question which has been held in Washington. by a long succession of boards of Commissioners of ihe District, and by an impre: ay of distin- guished men in Congress who have been of suiticient caliber tobe able to perform their | constitutional duty representing the people of the District. and not solely their local con- stituencies, im dealing with District questions, Tuer Srax’s opposition to the Atkinson biil is d on these hobbies. It would enlarge the eight facilities’ of the railroad. and at the same time it would remove a portion of its no- thoroughfare belt of surface tracks by elevating or depressing and bridging them, and it would take the tracks from the mall, or, if that were impossible, it would cover entirely from view } the tracks on the mall, or remove the station from the north to the south side of the reser- vation, thus reducing an evil which could not be completely cured. The Atkinson bill pro- poses what the road wants, and nothing else. If this bill passes without alteration iu the di- rections indicated, present conditions will be perpetuated and nothing will ever be accom- plisued for the publ relief. To indorse this measure Tur Stax would be compelled to be- tray every interest of the community in which it is published for the benefit of a foreign cor- poration, to sacritice consistency and to be- come a traitor and renegade in the local camp. It prefers to stick to its hobbies and to the defeuse of the lives and property of the people of Washington and of the beauty and healthfulness of the capital. It prefers to to be of as well asin Washington, and it can only regret that the interests or conviction of any newspaper published here should compel it to injure the capital to the extent of its powe by taking the opposite course. —- It is suggested, in view of the fact that an effort is being made to adopt the Star Spangled Banner as the national hymn, that this produc- tiou can not for purely technical reasons ever hold that position in the patriotic hymnology of the Republic. In its sentiment and in its melodious dignity is found no objection, but its compass includes two octaves an] the voices of « people are not equal to such a range ex- cept by education, and it is impulse not train- 8 the character and fixes the place of a national hymn. To paraphrase Longfellow for the occasion: Not from the grand old masters, Not from the bards sublime, Whos: distant footsteps echo Tarough the corridors of Tim Bat from some huinbler singer Whose songs gushed from his heart, As showers from clouds in summer, Or tears from the eyelids start. a Asto the right of the Senate to amend in lu:ap the McKinley tariff bill there may be two opinions. but as to the last republican prece- dent there is only one opinion, because the Senate in 1853 settled for itself. and by the coucurrence of the House that setilement stood. the whole question at issue. Amend- ment by wholesale substitution may not be amendment in the consti-utional sense, but the Senate bas said by its action that it is, and in ion of a vexed question of constitu- tional interpretation a republican House has taken part. It looks as if » republican prece- it 30 recent and notable will preclude the adoption of the opposite view, if that be con- tempiated by the majority in the House. gs — + - The action of the Senate in the adoption of Mr. Plumb’s resolution providing for the prepa- 2 of explanatory matter to accompany the indicates that the tariff bill is net going owied,much less telegraphed, through “upper” house of Congress, $< =< i Radyard Kipling is not a burlesque of a name it.at least would easily pass as such, and Yetsome people have nominated it as Tenny- uccessor. —— President Diaz thinks Mexico can take care of Lower California, and nobody whose opinion on the subject is of consequence shows any dis- position to dispute it. —— Mr. Gladstone, who likes as so well, is favor- ing our local option principle.
