STAR. WASHINGTON: THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Lecal y Newspaper in the World, and as am Advertining Mediam is worth more than all the other papers pablished in Cirealation of Washington wants a free public library. It makes comparatively little difference how the library is obtained provided it ix actually #e- cured. The city is not wedded to any partieu- lar plan, with the effect of shutting out other practicable methods. And on the other hand no one who sincerely favors the existence of such a library will throw cold water upon any movement to secure it, though he may think that some other method of attaining the same ead would in certain respects be prefer-! canse then you view tl Nbrary bave largely resulted from eri cism of the particnlar plan proposed Dy those who made no vigorons and sustained offert, and often no effort atall, to reach the end desired by the city in the manner which they favored. The vital point of the bill introduced by Mr. Hemphill is tho creation of » public library in space provided by the government. ‘The project of a genera! departmental library ap a substitute for the seattered circulating coi- lections now in existence suggests a practicable and justifiable method of rendering = large number of books accessible to the public with imereased advantages to the mass of the aetnal saving in ex- se to the government. government and the clerks shonld for any Feason, not now obvious, prefer the retention of the present system of individual cireulating libraries for the departments and pensive duplication in the departments not now supplied, the bill could amended in this respect, saving the vital point already specified. The experience of the local workingmen seems to show that private benefi- cenee cannot be relied upon for both building and beoks, but there are now indications that if room for them can be obtained the books will be forthcoming, at all to the comparatively culating books in the department libraries. If space is provided in the city post office built ing or in any other of the buildings suggested private subscriptions and those duplicates from the Congressional Library, which Mr. Spofford says can well be spared, will soon give Washing- ton what it has so greatly and so long needed. ‘The library can be obtained if all who profess its establishment in some shape as the great end of their lub: particular form of its creation which the: ‘vor as of secondary importance. 45 inches deep: Uneasy lies the head which of success in the world’s fair contest. proper thing for everybody on | any pretest to bluff and bully Chicago by ars the crown come to be the lake hardly has an opinion of its own, and even the wind blows with unaccustomed and ss teness and lack of assertiveness in the windy Foreign nations bill be passed and Democratic states we will boycott your fair of the Union unpatriotically shonted : “Stop the force bill or we will kill your Now it is proposed in the Colorado legislature that the state shall say to unhappy : “No free coinage of silver, no world’s fair celebration by the silver states!” ington ought be behind the times in this ingenious handling of the world’s fair club for the promotion or defeat of irrelevant legislation.

Washington is the proper place for the seat of a great school of Americaa his- tory, because here there are countless official documents and copyright books bearing on American history not accessibie elsewhere or not to be supplied except at great cost; besides which there are the living sources of national history, the inspiration of all historical writing, orkings of the federal gov- im the every day ernment in all its branches. But Washington wishes Philadelphia's enterprise all possible sucess. The more of such schools and the broader the ficld of study the better. ——__+o ‘The fact that other international monetary conferences have failed is no good reason for holding that the one now attempting in this city to make # uniform currency for the Amer- ean nations will fail of ite primary objecta No doubt experience is very important, but failures have been the foundation stones of test successes.
