4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D.C.. SATURDAY, MAY 31, 1899—TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR, WASHIN GTON: TURDAY ay 31, 1990, CHoswy s. Nov! a THE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising DBedium is worth mot» than all the other papers published in shinaton. If an $300,000 building, spread over more than 50,000 square feet of surface and occupy- ing a whole square, can be well built for the money to a greater height than the one or two stories which the locai post office will need, and a co-tenant with the local office becomes a necessity, the important duty will arise of de- termining who that co-tenant shail be. One's rst impression would be, however, that if €300,000 were required for a local post-office building on about 11,000 feet of land, as previ- ously indicated by the House. « much larger amount would be necessary to erect a Suilding. creditable in appearance, to cover five times that space, and to be ocenpied by more than oue branch »f the government. But the con- gressional committees will doubtless weigh all the considerations in the matter, and before the legislation takes its final shape provide all that is necessary for the building which they coptemplate, perhaps enlarging the appropria- tion if provision is to be made for a co-tenant with the post office. Washington will hope thet if any other branch of the government must be housed with the post office it may be the local District government, which now occu- pies unsuitable rented quarters. In the event! of this occupation neither of the co-tenants would have the decisive superiority which tempts tos struggle for exclusive possession, aud they might live peaceably and happily to- gether. Experience has tought that this har- monious relation between the joint oceupants | is almott impossible where national and local | bureaux are accommodated together m a building controlled by the national govern- ment, and that the local office in such occupa- tion goes first to the wall and then to the street, —_— + ——__ In another column is printed an abstract of ® speech by Senator Morrill in the last Con- gress on the local railroad situation, which states the people’s side of the case, In the | views expressed he stands on the same plat- form with such men as Sumner, Thurman and Conkling, and in more recent years Ingalls, who have given eloquent voice in the Seuste to their opinions, These views have bee» prac- tically reinforced by the recommendations of a long line of District Commissioners. of whom some, notably Commissioner Twining, gave protracted and intelligent study to the prav- tical and engineering features of the proposed method of furnishing relief to the public, and embodied the results of their investigations in valuable reports. The just and curefnlly con- sidered utterances of such men as these carry with them a weight and force before which the flimsy end often ridiculous arguments for a railroad dictatorship are promptly demolished. ‘To-day’s railroad argument of our morning cotemporary is in the shape of a communica- tion which contends in effect that certain res- ervations are intended not for park purposes but for the gratuitous use of railroads, and says in all seriousness: “There is nothing that so completely vindicates the wisdom and fore- sight of the founders of this city as the pro- vision made for the then unthought of rai roads in reserving large spaces of ground for their accommodation.” Wise founders, m- deed, who planned the capital's magniticent avenues solely to furnish free right of way for railroads to come, and established an admirable system of public reservations solely to supply large spaces of ground as station sites and freight storage room for the gratuitous accom- modation of railroads yet to be! Some of Mr. Morrill’s quotations from original documents indicate that the mall was intended to supply ‘am uninterrupted landscape” between Capitol | and President's House,and that all the parks were for public use as parks, not even to had seriously trespassed upon by public buildings, and that this intention was sacredly observed by Washington, Jefferson and succeeding great leaders of the people. Considerable ar- gument will be required to convince anyone who does not look at the matter through rail- road spectacles, that the founders of the city are responsible for the notion that railroad | corporstions have more rights in respect to public property at the capital than both the people and the government. psbA It is proposed to secure a half million dol- lars for s public library in Philadelphia. A half-million-dollar free library is a blessing | Washington would appreciate. Even a quarter- million-dollar library would be most accept- able. It is possible that the Congressional Library may in its new building be made so easy of access, and be so popularized in the ar- rangements for its use, that it will become a great library for the people. In this event the vast national collection would dwarf and ren- | der unnecessary any local project, and the capi- tal would be most highly favored in this re- gard among American cities. oo The Courier-Journal of Louisville, in speak- ing of Mr, Flower’s resolution appropriating $250,000 for the erection of a monument to Gea. Grant at Riverside Park, says: “It sbould be @ national monument, com- memorating not his military achievements alone, but his entire devotion to the Union, and his desire for peace, happiness and pros perity throughout ali our bordera Such a} monument belongs not in w York nor in Ohio, not in Illinois nor at Vicksburg, nor at Chattanooga, but at Washington, the capital of united country, happy. prosperous and free.” ——— a Much interest is manifested in Tur Stan's ad- vertising contest and the competitive articies of contestants are beginning to come in} rapidly. It should be borne in mind that each | contestant is to write a series of six articles of not | over 150 words each, and that the writer of the best series gets the first prize of $100; th second in mer! ‘50; the third, $25. a —— - There is occasionally hers and there in the | United States a display of something that is not broadly American and truly democratic. But | sober judgment will prevail in the end and real Americanism with its toleration and catho- | heity of sentiment will exclude mere considera- tions of nativity and social rank. Our country | is always to be a and of distinctively American | ideas, | ee ee The memorial observances yesterday in- eluded the laying of the corner stone of the Washington memorial arch in New York, at which an ex-President was present and « stately oration waa delivered. The genius and glory of Washington already arch our country | from ocean to ocean. And probably the father of biscountry will have to be contented with | the latter kind of arch for a long time to come. | — eo Itseems that Hungary bas forgotten what Louis Kossuth did for her in her memorable revolution, which eventually produced such grand results for Hungary and European freedom. ———_———-+ Will Senator Allison butterworth the McKin- ley bill when it comes up i the Senate?
