STAR. WASHINGTON: S. NOYES PME EVENING STAR bas a regular Permanent circalation In Washington three times larger than that of any other paper fm the city. As a local NEWS paper aud Advertising Medinne it bas no competitor. The Zoological Park is a government and not local institution. The item in tho urgency deficiency biil taxing the District one-half of the $4.424 appropriated for the Zoo ix, as Sen- ator Slierman showed, the continuation ofva Gross injustice on the people of the District, who are already heavily tuxed. Such an insti- tution as that, the expenses of which con stantly increase, is wholly beyond the means except cities of the largest ulty, Washington half the expense, why should it be saddled on her? The Zoo is in no ecuse of the word a local park, and was not de- signed asa local park. Itis a government Ground for government scientific uses, an ad- Janct of the Smithsonian, an’ under its exelu- sive control, just as much as the nucleus of the Zoo, the live animal exhibit at the National Museum, and no straining of words or ideas an ever make it anything else. Senator Mor- rill did a simple act of justice when he cor- Fected a supposition of Senator Hale that the agitation for the establishment of the Zoo had come from the citizens here. It was a concep- Exon Tarontant Treus Mase A Nore Or Tur. “Patais Rovatr Taz Price Finst.—to Paiste Roya's cotton and Cambric ‘Underxarments reduced from 85e. to 69c.

The impo- sition should be corrected whea the current Zoo appropriation comes up for consideration. 0 ‘The horrors of the highbinder eocieties and of the traffic in slave women are not to deter this republic from doing justice to any com- plaint from the government of China concern- ing the treatment of Chinese subjects within the limits of the United States. The prompt action of Secretary Blaine in referring such a complaint to the governor of Montana, where the alleged cause of complaint arose, ought to Gissipate any idea that Chinese are to be mal- treated with impunity here. Whatever preju- dice may exisi, and whether such preju- dice be well-founded or not, the gov- ernment will protect all furcigners who reside in the country from personal injury, so far as its powers extend.or will make suitable repara- tion for any such injury as may be inflicted by citizens, either asa matter of amity oz justice. The principle of responsibility for damages isnot always adiitted t the practice of the government, but the action of Congress has been on the line of mxking mon sn tion for such injurica where the facts were clearly proven. com| a The annual banquet of the Washington board of trade last night was not only & pleaxant so- cial diversion for its members and guests; it was an instructive review of what the national capital has become and through what difficul- ties it has become what it 1s, the most beau: fal city of the western world. In view of the facts concerning the national services of people of the District so forcibly presented in President Parker's address—tacts well known to the people of Washington but which it seems almost impossible to render familiar to Con- gress—Wasbington ought not to present itself to or be treated by its legisizture asin the at- titade of a suppliant. The national capital does not beg for charity, it asks justice. — Senator Chandler's resolution, which has passed the Senate and gone to the House for concurrent action, is timely in view of future dangers. The tifty-seven cases of typhus fever landed from an immigrant ship in New York should not have been permitted to spread the terrible disease browicast, but should have been held in quarantine until all peril was over. As the Senator from New Hampshire proposes, thesabject of the workiug of the im: laws is worthy of the careful inquiry of the two committees of Congress having jurisdiction. oe ‘The free binding twine and free cotton bag- ging, &c., bills decided on by the ways and | means committee are not measures so general | im interest us the wool and woolens bill, but | affect the agricultural population chiefly. In deciding between such measures and the silver bill for precedence in the House the agricul- tural members will find choice a dificult thing—that ie, the agricultural member who has silver on the brain and whose constituents are both for free trade and irce coiuage. = ‘The movement in the Senate Distriet commit- | tee to cause the Washington theaters, churches and other places of public resort to be 80 con- structed or reconstructed as to be quickly and safely emptied in tiuie of fire or panic is wise aud timely. These safeguards to the public | must be provided now. There is no exeuse for waiting until their necessity is established and | emphasized by a local fire, causing a horrible | loss of life, which would have been avoided by the present adoption of the proposed legisia- tiow. ++ Bays the President in his message to Con-! gress concerning an appropriation for insuring the safety of miners: “Economies which in- volve @ sacrifice of human life are intolerable.” This forcible sentence might easily command some attention in connection with the recent refusal to extend assistance to starving Kustia. Or to get nearer home, does not the economy which threatens humau life in the present gov- ernment printing ollice fall within this category | Of the intolerabie? +2 The complaints of the neighbors of Chancel- lor Buddecke of the German legation concern- ing the manner in which his family’s washing is displayed on the line are natural, and it seems hardly fair for the charcellor to fall back on his immanity as a legation attache to enable him to persist, An international mis- | understanding over a weck’s wathing would be | & spectacle for gods and men. ieee The Cleveland people in the northwest seem | disposed to mect the Hill people of New York haif way in the mattor of susp judgments. it Femains to be seen which snap is the more suc- cessful. Perhaps ench suap will be equally so, aad the democratic party be driven to choose “some good western man,” or the wen from Maryland rs who ap- the United States on the ground that the government is not pay- ing enough for their land appeal to the House of Representatives on the ground that the Srrvawrz suse cnstes Pisses of Betee tone ot Tidiculously low prices. 7 Evers. —Imported Photograph Frames st less prices than ciarged for those of domestic make.
