4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: THUNSDAY. June 19, 1890. CROSBY S. NOYES... .... Editor, HE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than ali the other papers Wasbirgton. When the Baltimore and Ojio railroad twenty yoars ago Lad the capital by the throat, Tax Sran placed itself in opposition to that Corporation a3 a2 unprogressive monopoly which was suffocating the growing city. To build up a competitor it favored the grant to the Baltimore and Potomac road of free right of way over the public streets, and when, after that road was nearly built, request was made for the loan of a station-site on the mail, it favored that loan. The use of the canal-dis- figured and forbidding reservation was xranted by Congress with express reser- vation of the power to repeal the act, a reservation construed by the Congressional friends of the measure to mean that this power was to be exercised when the mall came to be needed for park purposes. ‘The only question now is whether the time has not come to call in the loan in accordance with ite terms and make a new arrangement. Cir- cumstances have changed in twenty years. ‘The Baltimore and Ohio is no longer the ruler of the District of Columbia. The scepter has passed to the Baltimore and Potomac. ‘The former's tracks crossing Pennsylvania ave- nue at the very foot of the Capitol in the neighborhood of the present Peace monument no longer furnish a precedent to justify tracks on the mall. They were torn up in 1873 by a vigorous local government. The Baltimore and Ohio now pleads with its dominant rival for southern connections, The latter now stands in the same injurious attitude toward Washington as that assumed by the former twenty years ago, and the people and Tus Sra are engaged in a similar struggle for relief. It has been aptly suggested that in this change of railroad rulers King Stork has been sub- stituted for King Log. The reigning corpora- tion monarch is certainly a more aggressive despot than nis predecessor. He recognizes no rights of private property, and no public title to government property; he is above ail law, local and general, and he exercises un- checked power of life and death at bis grade- crossings. He has shown himself at times a bigger man than Uncle Sam, and he 1s now saying to that mild-tempered individnal: “I have appropriated to my uses without your consent six of your small reservations, besides violating the conditions whieh you attached to the favors which vou showered upon me when Tentered the capital. You will at once make good my title to this illegally acquired prop- erty, condone any of my acts which would be unlawful if committed by others, give me full and free range for the future, and, unless you wish to offend me, make no suggestion of com pensatory improvements for the benefit of the public. In my royal pleasure I will consider what uw best for the people, and will attend to their complaints at that timo in the future when I have nothing else to do.” What is Uncle Sam going to do about it? ——$—— Yesterday's conventions renominated for Congress Representatives Grout and Heard of the District committee. Both men have ren- dered good and faithful service as legislators for the capital, and the news of their renomina- tion is réceived by their District constituents with great satisfaction. Chairman Grout has especially endeared himself to this community by his recent vigorous efforts, even at the ex- pense of health and personal comfort, to pro- tect the interests of the city in the solution of the railroad question. In this behalf he went from a sick bed to debate on the floor of the House last District day in violstion of his physician's advice, and the people of the capi- tal highly appreciate the act. a ‘The new ships of our navy are playing some queer antics. When placed on the water they show a disposition to come ashore on occasion and make overland excursions to pointe in the interior. The last one to exhibit the usual symptoms is the Vesuvius, which grounded at League Island in the Delaware river yesterday at high tide. One of these fine afternoons the Cushing while whirling aloug down the Poto- mac will take a notion to break for the tall timber and the result will be thata dozen or two passengers will have to walk home from some bili side corn ticld in the ueighborhood of Fairfax Court House. oo Organized labor in the District has decided views on the local railroad question. and, in the resolutions of the federation of labor printed yesterday in Tue Sran, expresses itself im no uncertain tones. The representatives of the local labor organizations aunounce the purpose of calling to their assistance against the Atkinson bill and its supporters the trade unions and assemblies of Kuights of Labor in congressional districts, and Representatives are to be called upon to explain why they voted to give away public property and valu- able privileges to 4 railroad und neglected the opportunity to increase the beauty of the cap- ital and to protect the lives and property of ite people. ———— += ‘The radical and hberal press of England ‘sppear to think that Salisbury has swapped a Helgoland bird in hand for an African bird in the bush, or a naval station for a ship in the desert. The opposition to the Salisbury pol appeals to English susceptibilities, which are wounded at the loss of any acquired territory. This sensitiveness is as old as the earliest cor quests made on the continent. England even held obstinately until recent times to a strip of land on French territory, as a reminder of the days when English valor crowned the brow of an English king with the diadem of France. oo The public have no objection to Missouri providing herseif with the best college presi- dent the state can find, but applaud Mr. Will- iam L. Wilson's decision to stay in public life. . It is a pity in all such cases that there are not - enough best men to go around and leave no aching void anywhere —— Concerning the democratic congressional nomination in the Erie district, the home democrats say, admiringly: “Great Scott,” and the home republicans, explosively: “Great Scott!” ——— + = The Senate isn’t afraid of a deficit. as it has twice raised its clerks’ and private secretaries’ salaries this session. It remains to be seen what the envious House has to say about it, the House which has to pay its owa private secre- taries out of its own private pocket. ————— + = Rival lottery companies are bidding high for Louisiana's virtue. $< + St. Louis is not superstitious as San Fran- Cisco is, and Monday night when Mrs, Wood- worth, the “divine sealer,” put in operation her prophecy mill in a tent on Gamble street the hoodiums swooped down on it. Mrs. Woodworth will doom St. Lonis from some point where her efforts will meet with more appreciation —Chicago, for instance. a ‘The congressional kicker seems to know when to kick. —— Collegiate degrees are falling all over the Jand lke leaves in autumn. They fall alike Gpon the just and unjust, the deserving and undeserving. the scholar and the politician, ‘There is little discrimination in this shower. $< << The attention of all intending to compete for Taz Stan prizes in the advertising contest is directed to the fact that no articles will be received after tomorrow. _ Minneapolis and St. Paul manifest a desire to reduce each_other’s population by deadly means, in an effort to show that the population of one is larger than the population of the other. ‘The silver dollar buome, eeaq ‘aacd Eee PEemuee Jupe® seal 5 ns FI sexe o?=” 4 rod ao 3. ct Co ial va a ew OR, 2 >>.

I most cheerfully make this statement, for in apply- ing to you it was considered by persous who kuew of amy case as the last resort I had to live, ‘You are at liberty to use this as you see proper, and Thhope it will be the means of bevefiting others who are bow suffering for want of relief and cure.
