4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: Editor. THE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Circalation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth mere than all the other papers published in Poste oe ‘The municipal government of the District is housed in unsuitable rented quarters. Itought to have a home of its own, either the property of the District or of the United States. Its building should be occupied by it exclusively, or at least other tenants accommodated therein should be officials performing local functions. It should not be co-tenant with any powerful and growing department of the general govern- ment which will constantly need more room ‘and which will inevitably encroach upon the space allotted to the local government. This consideration doubtless influenced the Commissioners in the recommendation of their annual report concerning @ separate municipal building, and the suggestion of the application to this purpose of funds resulting from the sale of the District's interest in city hall, and from a reimbursement to the District similar to that made to the states of expendi- tures upon troops in excess of the war quota. If Congress will act favorably upon this recom- mendation, doubtless the best solution of the difficulty will be reached. If it becomes evi- dent, however, that this separate building can- not be secured, it may be well to consider the wisdom of making an earnest effort to secure suitable quarters for the municipal gov- ernment in the new post oflice building, as co-tenants with the local post office, and such other local offices, as can with adtantage be collected and accommodated in the new struc- ture. It would bea grand thing for the Dis- trict if the new building could be so devoted to local uses as Washington's post office, city hall and department of municipal affairsin general, that it wouk! take on a recognized local char- acter, aud that the municipal offices would be at home in it, not liable to be pushed out upon the street by expanding bureaux of the gen- eral government. The capital is entitled to @ city building. The rents of the unsuitable hired quarters will be saved. The government c-n as well afford to fill the extra space of the building with local as with general bureaux. The former should no longer be confined, as in the past, to the dis- agreeable alternatives of a tenancy by suffer- ance ina public building, crowded in a corner by the general government, to be pushed out entirely in the end, or accommodation in un- suitable rented quarters, ugly to look at, incon- venient and often unhealthful to occupy, and thoroughly discreditable to the capital of the great republic. ———— +00 Among the numerous claimants of the laurels of Dr. Koch a Philadelphia bacteriol- egist, Dr. $. G. Dixon, has attracted perhaps the greatest public notice. The revelation appears to have been made in response to an attack on the American doctor, who is now in Berlin. Working on independent lines, it is mid, each discoverer discovered the principle of the cure of tuberculosis by means of a lymph made from tubercle bacillus, Dr. Dixon’s experiments antedating those of the celebrated German physician. From the in- terest shown by the latter in the former it has been assumed by many German physicians that lymphs used by the respective discoverers were nearly identical. If this is supported by further aud convincing evidence it will be a case like that of Darwin and Wallace and the theory of evolution. It isto be remarked in this connection that all discoveries and inven- tions of nove have beer challenged, and that these chalienges are not necessarily dishdfest. Allsuch discoveries aml inventions are the fruit of the study of all ages and of contem- porary endeavors. A thousand rivals may be in the field at ouce and who shall say with posi- tiveness who was the one to discover or invent? The rule Las been to give the honor to the first man who establishes the workableness ef a theory beyond all reasonable doubt. As Fulton demonstrated on 2 great plane what Fitch and others had on a smaller, Fulton rather than the prior claimants is regarded as the inventor of the steamboat. So, in the present case, as Dr. Koch has the ear of the world in all except knowledge of the components of his lymph the honor of having made possible the destruction of the great destroyer—consumption—is not unnaturally claimed for Koch. But if Dixon's work can be established by simultaneous or prior publicity then the claims of the American will have to be considered. - ToS The Philadelphia Inquirer makes some strong Points in favor of the old school readers over those now in use.

What is wanted is excellence in style, variety in the selections and the inclusion of much interesting and in- structive matter that will cling to the memory and form the taste for good reading and cor- rect habits of thought and composition, as well as influence the character of youth. The ‘school book compiler performs an important function and needs special training and attain- ments to meet with success the requirements of It is interesting to remember that the cele- brated archwologist, Dr. Schleimann, who has just died at Naples, resided for a time in this country while he was engaged in sscuring the private fortune which he used in making his discoveries on the sites of ancient Troy and Mycenae. Americans, too, will think the more of him when they remember that he was en- tirely self-made. The son of a German pastor of Mecklenburg, he conceived at an carly age the bold design of unearthing the Troy of the Iliad, and after many ups and downs he found the remains of a city which he thought was Priam’s. There is not complete concurrence in the claims of the enthusiastic explorer, but re- cent investigation has established some of them. ee The discovery of tin ore in large quantities on the Colorado river, Texas, is the most im- portant industrial event of the month. It nat- urally excites intense interest. Heretofore there have been few deposits of tin out of Cornwall, Engiand, the mines of which, having been worked since early Carthaginian times, are becoming unproductive. There are depos itwin the Black Hills, Dakota. The tremen- dous development of the canning industry in the United States has, however, required the use of more tin than was readily supplied and the discovery of large additional deposits will sull further stimulate the business. ee ‘The Alnasears in the democratic party are in- dulging in rosy horoscopes of how they are go- ing to capture the Senate in 1893. The horo- scope basket was kicked over in 1988, but the democratic Alnascars have forgotten all about ‘that melancholy event. Before 1898 comes 1892, and the time of action and hope-smashing is too close at hand to make day-dreaming a tafe occupation. ee Editor Dana of New York has a senatorial ‘boom, so has Editor Medill of Chicago.
