G STAR. GTON: . ... January 10, 1901. THE EVENDID WA SHIN Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as am Advertising Medium is worth mere thas all the other papers published in Washington. Elsewhere in Tax Stan is published an ex- tract from Gen. Boynton’s correspondence which emphasizes the pressing demand for more public buildings, the necessity of re- fraining from encroachment on the parks for sites and the advisability on economic grounds of securing at once for public purposes the cheap and conveniently situated land between Pennsylvania avenue and the mall. Hardly any argument beyond the mere recital of un- disputed facts is necessary to establish all these contentions. Nearly every department is cry- ing aloud for more room. Noone now dis- putes that the parks, or such part of them as the railroads do not wish to occupy, are held in trust for the public benefit aud enjoyment, ‘and ought not either in good faith or sound policy be diverted to other uses. The wisdom of securing the comparatively cheap ground which will extend government ownership over the narrow strip separating the mall and avenue, and enable the government to fringe the south side of that historic street with hand- some public buildings, looking out over a con- tinuous park to the south, is also generally recognized. Gen. Boynton's vigorous and dis- interested advocacy of the project and the ac- tion of Congress in locating the new city post office on this strip indicate very clearly the public tendency, and establish that there is something more in the proposition than speculative real-estate scheme for the benefit of the owners of the property affected. The first department to apply for room and a build- ing on this strip will naturally be the Post Of- fice Department. It could secure cheaply ample space for itself in this way and leave its present overcrowded quarters for the relief of the Interior Department. “The time appears tohave come for a change of ‘he polley ob the Pennsylvania Railroad Com- yy with respect to the city of Philadelphia. eat company, owning a railroad built with Philadelphia money for the benefit of Philadelphia, should always be foremost in pro- moting every onterprine - vance the commerciai intereste of the city. But, as things are, the company is placed in a jon of an| not alone to every pub- which is not directly and almost ‘own advantage, but to the sentiment of the people. interferes with the politics of the town: it has crippled the grain trade and nearly ruined the oi) trade of the city: it fonght desperately against the Belt Line, and it is regarded by the mass of the ple with indignation and wrath as_« public enemy. The triumph of the Belt Line and Reading Terminal project in councils was the successful termination of a prolonged struggle between the people of Philadelphia on the one hand and Mr. Roberts on the other. Nobody bas any consideration for the tools used by him the committee rooms or the council cham- bers. The contest was made by him personally in such offensive shape that it aroused the re- sentment of the people as popular sentiment rarely can be aroused, and the result, of course, was his overwhelming defeat.” The Manufhe- terer (Phila. ). Good for Philadetphia! And now, having won its own fight, will not that city extend its sym- pathy, and through its Kepresentatives ite aid to the capital, which has been worse misused and needs a change of policy in respect to it by the railroad far more than Philadelphia does? ‘There the road has spent millions in purchae- | ing right of way, in removing grade crossings, and in improving the approaches to stations. Here it is not willing to abolish a single one of the murderous grade crossings, and it con- stantly extends its enjoyment of free right of way, free stationsites, and free sidings over and on the public property. the streets and res- ervations of the city. <—————— An addition to the White House has long been needed. The present building, erected before the eraof modern improvements, though architecturally satisfying, is not, as everybody knows, adequate for residence purposes as the home of Presiienta. The proposition just in- troduced into Congress does not contemplate an entirely new edifice. It is conservative, like the American people, in that it builds upon old foundations. It merely seeks by additions and extensions to make the Executive Mansion suitable for the purpose. The idea of re- ssodeling the Executive Mansion is one that ought to be kept before the public until it is finally carried out, or until the executive resi- dence and offices are separated and the Presi- dent is housed in another building. Who will supply the rooms for a Washington public library? Will the government do it in connection with the establishment. of a general departmental library? Will the govern- ment do it, without reference to the depart- mental libraries, as municipal concern? Will some individual oration or syndicate erect- ing a large busines. building entitle himself or itself to gratitude as a public benefactor by setting aside space in the structure for such a library? It is evident that if room ean be se- cured the books can be obtained. Who will earn the proud title of the founder of the a thvtesl: jital’s public library? —<o———_—_—_— «If the Senate takes up the irternational copy- right bill on Monday let it beware of gift- bearing in the shape of amendment from the Greeks. Ifthe opponents of the measure on the pretense of improving the bill can amend ‘it and send it back to the House, consideration of it will be secured with difficulty in the clash of contending measures at the close of the ses- sion.
