4 “THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTO Lecal Ctrealation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more thaw Washington. ‘The defence of the robbery of the District taxpayers to purchase and maintain a collec- tion of wild animals, the property of the na- is based upon threb statements, all of ich are falxo. ‘These are, first, that the Dis trict people asked and worked for ® menagerie for the edification of the Incal juvenile popula- tion, second, that they secured the menugerie, ving secured it, they are try- ment of their just share They have not asked for a or worked for any kind of a “zoo.” They hare not secured a local “zoo” and no part of the expense incurred or to be incurred is Justly due from them. The popular movement for the national park is con- fused notwithstanding repeated corrections— with the effort of Mr. Hornaday and the Smith- sonian Institution to enlarge the accommoda- tions for and numbers of the govermuent scientific collection of wild animals, which Were confined at the time in the Smithsonian grounds. The city did ask and work for the purchase by the government of the Rock Creek valley in order that this picturesque region might be secured while the ground was rea- sonably cheap, and be preserved as a park that it might become the most bewutiful ornament of the capital of the world’s greatest nation, and also in order that for the health of the city Rock creck might be pro- tweeted fn its course through the District aca pure and sparkling stream and not be permitted through settlement to its very edge to become an open sewer. Whether the tnx payers of the District by acquiescing in and approving this ble acquisition, which would not be feasible if longer delayed, have rendered themselves liable to pay more toward the national park than a corresponding numbcr of citizens of the United States clkewhere in the republic and should even be required to pay an amount the other papers published in equal to that contributed by all the other | Cost of bank end railroadstocks ; does not need to be | The Ivcul payer may have torun a risk so far as the national park is concerned, bat in connection with the “zoo” he baw not exposed himself to any risk. He distinctly repudiates all special interest in the government monkeys. hyenas and kangaroos. The only urgency in the estab- Hishment of a national “‘zoo” is found in the fact that national types of animals which the scientists wish to preserve are fast becoming extinet. This consideration has no weight whatever with the District taxpayer in the tion of the District finances and the District's material needa. He requires more and better streets, sewers, pavements, sidewalks. schools, police, water, light, fire-pro- tection, ete., and in the “zoo” proposition the government takes him by the throat and says: “Hand over $60,000 from your current reve- nues for the promotion of general science and the purchase and maintenance of assorted wild animals!” It is easy to test who is interested in securing the menagerie and who should pay The animals are not yet purchased. ‘The money for this year is not yet appropriated. If the menagerie is to be bought for the grati- fication of the District delay the purchase until the District indicates that the fitting time has arrived. The House commit- tee on appropriations indicates that the govern- ment estimates of what will be needed for the maintenance of the “zoo” have been cut down by it one-half. So far as the District is concerned the item may be cut out altogether. It should be distinctly understood that the Distriet does not ask for and will not voluntarily pay for a single beast, bird or fish. It utterly repudiates the “zoo” as a local concern. It eau hardly make both ends meet financially in the matter of itecurrent material needs. If the govern- ment, merely because it hus the power, exacts from the District's poverty $50,000 for the “zoo” this year, with the promise of requiring $100,- 000 next year, and an increasing amount in years to come. its action is no more justifiable | than that of the highwayman who empties his victim's pockets at the muzzle of the pistol. ——_$-<+o— : ‘The Kaiser's irritation and Bismarck’s eriti- cism of the imperial policy give rise to the report that the ex-chancellor is to be prose- cuted. The latter evidently desires that some such extreme course may be pursued. For the Present, however, it is likely that the govern- ment will content itself with warnings to the Bismarckian newspapers not to go too far. Naturally the strained relations between the court and the retired statesman excite lively interest, not only in Germany, but throughout Europe. ——$_or+2__ Hon.
