4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D.c, SATURDAY. JANUARY 9, THE EV WAS SATURDAY. three other paper im the city. As a local NEWS paper and Advertising Medium tt bas no competitor. There is @ threatening war cloud on the horizon—no larger perhaps at present than a Man's band—but still an unmistakable promise of war. Uncle Sam may perhaps with credit avoid a Chilean struggle, but it is hard to see how he is going to prevent the Penn- sylvania railrond from tackling him and sweeping up the ground with him in the Vicinity of Long Bridge. Once before this railroad routed the United States army inan engagement at Eastern Branch bridge, and it now shrewdly renews the protracted struggle with the War Department over Long Bridge at a time when Uncle Sam has bis bands full with Chile, and Col. Hains, the brave and able leader of the national forces in the series | of battles at Long Bridge, has been, unhappily, Fetired from the field. An article printed elsewhere shows the condi- tion of the campaign at this time, and the bear- ing upon it of Senator Barbour's bill, The army officers in charge of the river front im- provements have uniformly contended that the Long Brilge must go. The citizens of Washington living or doing business along Pennsylvania avenue and in the lower parts of the city, who are threatened every year with a destructive flood by this great dam, and the people of Georgetown whose harbor is ob- structed and almost ruined by it, are deeply interested in the Long Bridge struggie and sin- cerely hope that Uncle Sam will toe the mark like a man, and not be frightened into yielding by the size of his adversary. Col Hains after careful study of the problem decided that no step should be taken or favored in respect to the Long Bridge which was not part of comprehensive pian looking to the removal of the causeway, the carrying of the raiiroad tracks across the reclaimed flatsby an arched viaduct, and the reconstruction and elevation of the bridge structure. And Col. Hains was clearly right. Would that he were here, every Washingtonian will say, to defend Uncle Sam and the capital and bis pet bridge project! For Col. Hains wasa fearless and intelligent fighter in the public interest. Congress ought to take the proposition of Senator Barbour's bill as an opening of the whole Long Bridge question, consider it care- and dispose of it broadly and wisely, not g any difficulties which may arise. It is 4 in all seriousness that in order to have mestion settled the railroad will, if put to the test, agree to make improvements which will substantially accomplish the re- construction of Long Bridge in the manner which Col Hains bas urged and the city of Washington has needed. The people of the District petition their legislature to make the effort. No greater improvement for the bene- fit of the capital could be accomplished than the substitution of anarched viaduct and bridge for the Long Bridge dam. —+2—____ ‘The fiscal’s finding or indietment in the mat- ter of the attack on the Baltimore's crew, in the light of the revelations made by the men themselves after their arrival in California and the opening of official mquiry into the facts by the judge advocate of the navy, is evidently far short of what was called for at the hands of the Chilean authorities. If the trial to take place Bander this indictment before tho crimes judge at Valparaiso is tohave no wider scope than seems to be afforded by the fiscal’s docament— and it is hard to see how it can have—the re- sult will be, at best, a beggurly verdict convict- ing three Chileans and, strange to say, one of the Baltimore's sailors. It is understood that assurance was given before the Baltimore left Chile that it was not contemplated to bring any proceedings against the crew of that vessel. ‘How such assurance can be violated and one of the men assuited indicted for aseault and recommended for conviction and punishment + may be accounted for on principles of lawand equity satisfactory to Chile. Such principles of law and equity are not understandable in this republic. —_—+-+2—___ The democrats have monopolized one of the historical days of the republic, the 8th of Jan- wary, and Mr. Cleveland, the idol of the ag- gressive tariff reform wing of his party. has availed himself of the opportunity presented by “Jnekson day” to say some things in favor | cf what Speaker Crisp would call in a caucus | “no step backward in tariff reform.” ‘The | trouble for the democrats is that Crisp’s “no step backward” and Cleveland's admonition to “persistency” do not mean precisely the same thing. Mr. Cleveland in his speech to the democratic business men’s clab in New York last night seems to have been animated by the fear that some steps backward would be taken, and be therefore utilized the occasion to strengthen the party's vertebra. It is hardly necessary to point out the pretty obvious com- Parison to be read between the lines of the ex- President's address between the Jacksonian Jackson tearing down the national bank of his day by persistency and pluck and the Jackson- Hazsrxorns ee E> ByS RR PE Sal = ‘You can see visions of spring in the new forelrn EM- BROIDERIES we have just landed.

When L’Enfant planned the city of Washington the steam railroad was unknown. ‘The city, it is generally conceded, 1s still to grow vastly in extent and population. Hence it is important now before that growth comes to remedy the evils that have already arisen in connection with the railroads, and'to provide comprehensive plans for the future. In this respect the city of Berlin furnishes an example to Washington and the world.
