=e THE EVENING STAR. |“w. A Tyocent= WASHINGTON: «ROSHY S. NOYES. THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, and more than Washington. ‘Two observations, at least, are to be made on the subject of dangers on the line of the cable cars, The first is that it is imperative to have the greatest watchfulness on the part of the conductor and gripman. However particular the street passenger on foot or in another vehicle or the person intending to get on or off a cable car may be, unless there is co-operation with him or her in carefulness by those in charge of the cable car an accident may occur. It is ataatter, therefore, of extreme importance that the conductors and gripmen should be in- telligent, observant, faithful and in every way thoroughly competent men for the duties to be performed. On the part of the car company tho responsibility is very great, The second necessary consideration is that the pubiic mast be thoughtful; any one driving or walking in the immediate _ vicinity suould have both eyes open and all wits at fullcommand, The cable car cannot stop as easily as other cars, therefore the pub- lie are warned to be more particular than in the case of other strect railways, The strictest at- tention must be paid to signals, In getting on or off one should wait until the car has actually stopped and more than the customary care mist be taken to avoid jumping from one car immediately in front of another car approach- ing on the other track. The public, as men- tioned by Senator Hawley in the Senate debate on the subject, are fools as to personal safety on steamboats, railroads and street car lines— iu fact, in public places generally—and are easily panicked, bringing themselves into po- sitions of danger and into actual destruction very often. You must therefore procced on the presumption that they need taking care of. Senator Spooner’s remarks on the same occa- sion show that the proper care isnot taken by the management of thecable company. He in- s.sts that fiagmen should be stationed at cer- tain important places to warn people of dan- ger. The debate was quite fruitful in valuable suggestions. The steam railroads should pay some way for the franchises extended to m. These franchises are very valuable, ‘They have been granted to the local compani free. The road is constructed. The grade made forthem, They have only to lay their tie s and rails, Surely with all these advantages tlrewn in, which ought to be paid for, the car companies, as they adopt the improved but more dangerous motors, should eusure safety in a greater degree to the asers of their lines and to the general public. a The people of every section, class and oceu- pation of the city are signing the petition against the murderous grade-crossings, and asainst legalizing, without compensation to the public, the illegal railroad occupation of public , property, proposed by the Atkinson Dill. The railroad’s cunning misrepresenta- tiom to the effect that the only question at issue is the removal of tho station from the mall has not availed and will not avail. Life limb are to be saved and trade facili ties enlarged before increase of the city Leauty is to be considered at all, and whe the esthetic question does arise in proper order the alternative is provided, so far as the peti- tion is concerned, of removing the tracks from the mall, or of sinking aud covering them in their approxch to the present station, Wash- ington, like a woman, is strong in her beauty. The attractiveness of the city for resid due in part to the absence of many things which are the characteristics of a great com- mercial city, is the scerct of her wonderful growth, his incrense of population in- cluding many among the wealthy class, has materially assisted to develop and bring prosperity to the business firms of Washington. To destroy Washington's pecu- liar charm as acity of homes on sapposed basi- ness principies would be to kill the goose which Jays the golden egg. But, :mportant as it is to preserve as far as possible this attractiveness of Washington, it is far more important to protect human life. The petition states the purposes of just railroad legislation im their proper order. —— $2 A scholarly bishop of the Protestant Episco- pal Church once said that there was a great mistake made by intelligent and well meaning persons in denouncing wholesale a ciass of for- eign novels intended to be not immoral pictures of life but correctives of immorality. The study of life meludes from this view point the examination of unwholesome elements of sccial phenomena. According to those who wish to indulge philosophy ant restrain only the paipably unclean in literatu:+ by a censorship of the mails such writers as Shakzpere, Balzac and Tolstoi are not to be ciassed with others whose revelations are real pruriency in inten- tion. The bold philosophical write: uses the materials that he finds in society, the good to correct the bad, the bad to bring the good into prominence or to round off the study of life so as to present it in the aspects of completeness and entirety. The important thing is to dis- criminate so as to put these studies of social phenomena into the hands of those who are capable of instruction therein, and to exclude altogether the merely sensational and prarient publications, $$ With such weapons as the legal point con- cerning the tracks at W strect and the threat- ened competition of the Herdic Line the peopie of Mt. Pleasant ought to be able to bring the street railway company to terms, if that com- pany should, as it ought not, refuse to make improvements in the desired direction. The legislation which the company indicated that itwas awaiting before deciding finally in the Mt. Pleasant matter has now been enacted, and the crisis in the controversy is at hand. —— Everybody whe can get get away is flying from Washington owing to the heat.—Zaltunore Sun. Not so, The rural visitor thinks it is charm- ing, and such residents as are leaving only go away “for a change” and come back because the change is “‘no good.” Washington nights are cool as a dream of the north pole. ‘The city’s summer attractions in broad, well-shaded streets, attractive parks and cool river breezes were never more conspicuous, a The Baltimore Sun agrees with what Tre Stam said yesterday—that the wishes of the people would have been better gratified if Washington city had been selected for Gen, Grant's final earthly resting place. The wishes of the people, asa matter of fact, were nevor ratified at all in making Riverside Park the Place of sepulture of the illustrious American's Femains. e+ ‘The star-eyed goddess of reform is opposed to the federal elections bill, favors reciprocity with South American states and wants to wi ar an American sealskin coat of her own raising, And yet Col.

It is safe to assert that there isn't s day passes but hundreds of dollars, to say the least, are expended in this city for furniture and house decorations, If not expended judiciously then poorly spent; and if not @isbursed in the light of all possible economy then not expended judiciously.
