THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON MEDNESDAY aE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Ctrealation of any Newspaper in the World, end as an Advertising Mediam ts worth more than all the other payers published in Washington. On the subject of the orld’s fair Tar Star as been consistent sinte the decision was made tn Congress in favor of Chicago. Let that city have fair play. It takes time for such & great undertaking to get under way. The republic must have patience with Chicago even if Chicago has no patience herself. it would seem that she, or at least some of her newspapers, are becoming Very restive under the difficulties thrown in the way of a choice of site. The Chicago Herald ways: “We are threatened with world-wide shame. We are already covered with confn- sion.” The Herald's bill of particulars shows that ‘a selfish and unprogressive railway cor- poration bars the way to the lake front. Com- petent engineers pronounce Jackson Park in- adequate. Thus,” adds that paper, “the dual site falls.” The Herald reminds the public that Winter is coming on and a year will have soon passed “with absolutely nothing done.” Our ¢otemporary says with the inspiration of a @reat truth that the point to be considered is not how much this man or that man can make out of the enterprise, and not how many por- manent improvements Chicago can secure m- Cidentally as a result of the fair expenditure, Dut how an undertaking thnt is of world-wide importance in itself can be inaugurated and carried on with the best prospects of anccesa, If, as charged by the Herald, the directoys as- ammed very lightly a sorious responsibility it is full time they were realizing its magnitude. What is wanted is the local high spirit of the Breat western metropolis sweiled out into Bational and even international proportions. Let it not be a Chicago fair, but a Columbian world’s exposition in fact as well ag in name. And it is high time this broadening spirit were entering into the plans and labors of the di- rectors, = ‘The cyclone that destroyed the village of Summerville and did large damage to life and property in the city of Wilkesbarre and other Pennsylvania places was one of the most de- structive that has visited the country in his- torical times. The cyclone is now an cstab- lished American “institution. Viewing it in this light it will be wise for the dwellers along the cyclone belt to make their houses stronger and provide subterranean modes of ouge. The President of the United States is ez- Qficio general of the army and admiral of the Navy of the United States. Whatever rank is maintamed in the navy subordinate to his er<Gfcio rank, there should be a heutenant general of the army. That rank is necessary to supplement the President's. Attimes the army has had a liewtenant general, so denom- inated; at others an officer of lower rank fill- ing the position and discharging the duties thereof. In the case of Gens. Grant and Sher- Maa, for cause of especial honor, the rank of fuli general was bestowed. At present a meri- torious officer of the Union army in the civil war who has scen steady and effective service since is senior major general and, under the President and Secretary of War, commander-in- chief of the army. In order to enable him to periorm that duty, there being just sufficient major generals to man the divisions, and his own promotion having made necessary the placing of « brigadier general in charge of one of these divisions. a regimental officer is in command of « brigade. This arrangement throws the whole service more or less out of gene and is defensible only on the ground of tew- porary expediency. For the army's best effi- ciency the law should provide for the regular permanent rank of lieutenant general. To state the case is te argue it to this conclusion. $< Gossip plays strange tricks with those who come #ithin its atmosphere. From London comes the news that Miss Leiter of this city an income of one milliam dollars per year in ber own right. Even Chicago would be startled at such figures. ———— Mrs. Langtry has turned her attention to religious matters. 20 ramer says. She could bea mach better Christian than she is on actress and still not be too good to last. — ‘What differcnce would it make if the absent New York members were all to return?
