4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTO April 17, 1801, =——— = THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local (Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as am Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in (Washington. a ‘The management of the world’s fair is eub- ject to a great deal of undeserved criticism. One of thé troubles it has to contend with is the inexcusable lack of information on the part of some writers for the press. When this igno- rance is combined with sectional or state pre- Jadice the {combination is appalling. Here is a case at hand. An editor of a southern news- paper fancied that the older states of the south were being discriminated against by Mrs. Potter Palmer in her appointments of vice presidents and committees for the woman's department and he proceeded forthwith to charge such discrimination and to say that it was due to the poverty of the region described. Alocal commissioner of the fair, ‘himgelfan ex-editor, and weli ecquainted with the situa- tion, enlightens thecritic by showing that Mrs. Palmer is herself @ native of tho south, fally alive to ite interests, that in choosing a vice president in the territory between Delaware and Alabama a lady of influence from one of the old states was selected from a point about midway between the extremes, and that in making up the executive committee. the most important of all the committees, ladies from eight southern states, embracing several of the Older ones, were chosen. Furthermore, it is the intention of the lady prosident when other committees are constituted to place ladies from the other southern states on the roil in Bonorable and responsibie positions. The secretary is a lady fromasouthera stete ac- cording to the classitication before the war- Nor does this spirit of fairness stop with the woman's department. The acting chairman of the executive committee, who is practically at the head of affairs, isa Kentuckian. The sec- retary of the commission isa Texan. Of the eight members of the board of control three are southerners. Indeed it would seem—as the North Carolina Commissioner says—that in point of working weight the south hae con- trolling influence in the commission aad on the various boards and committees connected with the fair. It is not the south that com- plains—only here and there some one who has not taken the trouble to le: the familiar facts in easy reach. The poor states stand on a specially good footing if they show energy to the extent of their capacity. The states unoflicially repre- sented will not be slighted, but encouraged to present their resources to the world through private organizations. Why should a world’s fair be conducted on any other basis? The managers are not only patriotic, but they are men of sound business sense. —_—$>---o—____ “When the Pennsylvania Railroad Company desired to increuse its freight facilities and have the sidings whi i were illegal legalized, it was willing to do a great many things and make many concessions which would have benefited the public con- siderably. For instance, the company did not object to tunneling at certain portions of the road, but as soon as we saw there was to be no compromise from the opposition and that the sole object was to defeat the bill we went into the fight to win all we could.” This refreshingly cool statement is from Repre- sentative Atkinson as the mouth piece of the railroad. He must credit the public with an exeeedingly short memory. The people of Washington fought unsuccessfully to secure the slightest concession or promise of conces- sion in compensation for the privileges granted by the Atkinson bill. In order to secure the passage of the bill in the House the railroad did compromise with certain members and through its representatives in that body agreed to the appointment of a commission to consider what concessions it would properly make. Then through its representatives in the Sen- ate it struck out this compromise pro- vision, and in the conference committee the railroad “we” of the House who “went into the fight to win all we could” agreed to omit the compromise provision, upon which good faith required them to insist. And now comes Mr. Atkinson with his story of concessions, with which the railroad was anxious to benefit the public. The railroad has promised some improvements in the present injurious and disgraceful conditions to the Senate District committee, but absolutely refused to have them coupled with the Atkinson bill. It remains to be seen whether promises made to a Senate committee are any more binding than a com- promise agreed upon with members of the House. ———_++=2__ The phenomenal growth of the American city population is a subject for both wonder and alarm. Ite percentage cannot grow with- out a corresponding decrease in the percentage of rural population. And this fact is fraught with economical and social dangers. Consider what these must be in a very few decades when we know that the urban increase has been during the last ten decades from three per cent of the whole population to slightly less than thirty percent in 1890. And this isso far as city population proper is concerned, or the population of towns having a population of eight thousand or more. The rural population in its strictest limitation—that is on the farms and in ¢ountry stores and workshops or in hamlets of less than two hundred souls—would show that the disproportion between the town and country acentury ago and now is very much greater than appears from the showing of the census enumeration. Is the American rustic disappearing? Are brawn and muscle only to be acquired in the pursuit of the manly arta la Sullivan or in the enthusiasm of the national game? Aré farmers’ movements of the future tobe renlored impossible by the disappearance of the farmer? The congestion of population in our great cities, and the pre- vailing misgovernment of these cities combine to raise one of the most serious problems that now confront Ame: ican statesmen. ——<_seo— The New Yorker's gift of nearly a half million dollars to the Catholic University of America at Washington is one of those munificent acts that denote how high the spirit of the American people has arisen on the subject of education. Washington is mor a than ever as the true cen z and education in the western hemisphere. As time rolls on this appreciztion will be still more signally marked. —_—_—++e___ Those Italian newspapers which have been refused at the New York post office and re- tarned because they contain lottery adver- thements arenow engaged in organizing » combine agaiust the United States and charg- ing that she exclusion is simply an act of re- venge.
