4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON eee. Febroary .. Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and Permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that of any other paper im the city. As a local NEWS paper and Advertising Medium Mt has ne competit —_———— = The libellous reflections upon the motives of some of those who are justly honored by the public as responsible for the creation of Kock Creek Park, which have been printed in the Washington correspondence of one of the New York papers, were not repeated the formal statements before the House tions committee. This abstentic pradent. This slanderous matter has un- doubtedly been foisted upon the correspondent fm question by interested persons, and is better adapted to be whispered irresponsibly into the ears of Congressmen and newspaper men than to be publicly charged when the ac- used and the accusers are face to face. ‘The obvious attempt of those who would place private before public interest in this Inatter is to destroy the prevailing view of the park project as a great public improvement, for the accomplishment of which citizens of intelligence have been working at intervals for more than twenty years, and in the attainment of which the whole community rejoiced, and to picture it to a new Congress as a mere real estate speculation, recently concocted and engineered by the Cslifornia syndi- cate, of which soulless aggregation of capital the citizens who Lave been active in creating the park are represented as the tools. The well-known history of the successful park movement *and of those which preceded it demonstrates convincingl the, absurdity of this attempt. It 1s indignantly denied by the commission and by the prominent citizens in- in W. A. Preacs & Co., 719 MARKET SPACE, Cor. Sth st.

And the public believes their state- ments. ‘There is no occasion, however, for any one ‘who has been active im the park project to be ashamed of this activity, even if he owns prop- erty which is benefited. If the California syn- cheate had framed and practically enacted the park legislation solery in its own interest, and the public had not -«rticipated in the action, it would not have been likely to permit the Passage of the act with the provision which Sssesses upon it special benefits. What an ab- surdity asa grasping Octopus it would be to secure this legislation for its benefit and then provide for taxing itself in proportion to this benefit! Every citizen whohashad a hand in the mag- nificent contribution to the healthtulnessandat- tractivencss of Washington which is involved in making Rock creek a park-surrounded, spark- ling. picturesque stream instead of an open, Stinking sewer is proud of his connection with the movement, and at every stage of the pro- ceedings takes and will take a lively interest in Perfecting this grand project. Of what con- Bequence is it to the public if in the great multi- tude of those who favored the park (substan- tially the whole community indorsing the pro- fect) therewerea few whose property would be specially benefited by the park's creation in Addition to the general public benefit? What does it matter if in these few persons con- Siderations of self-interest mingled with pub- Me-spirited motives in determining their atti- tude? Every public improvement means such special beneficiaries, and Congress in recog- Bition of this fact provided for an assessment upon those to be directly and specially advantaged by tue creation of the park. If any real-estate speculator specially profits by the park he can be made to pay to the public for that benefit under existing law. ‘The only obviousand reasonably probablee fect of this appeal from the President and United States Supreme Court to the House committee on ‘eppropriations will be to give vigor to the assessment-of-benefits provision. If there is no misuse of the present appropriation and no Fequest for an additional appropriation the nly way in which the committee can save Uncle Sam money will be by insisting upon the assessment and payment of special benefits to the last cont. This result is not at all what the few dissatisfied Rock creek property owners, who are kicking up the commotion, are working for. I is suggested that the bill to provide for an investigation of Rock Creek Park expenditures may be referred to the judiciary committee. ‘What in the world bas this committee to do with the District or with District expenditures? Tt a law of the last Congress is to be construed, is not the executive, aided by bis legal advisers, to construe it in th Girst instance in enforc it, and are not the courts provided to settle disputes which may arise concerning the construction of laws? Moreover in this case it is not legal questions, but expenditures, which it is proposed to inves- tigate. ‘The Hill democrats met in convention yes- terday, promulgated a platform reafirming former platforms, chose delegates to the Rational convention and also presidential @lectors and instructed the New York mem- bers of that convention to vote for David B. Hill for President. The Cleveland or protest- fng democratic committes met at the same time end in the came city and called a state convention taconvene on the Bistof May. Their purpose seems to have been to make the contrast in time between the two State bodies as wide as possible. The signifi- eance of the division in the empire state is on the point whether the breach is sufficiently great ftocause the exclusion from the democratic nomination of a New York man or rendez his lection if nominated doubtful. ——_- = LADIES’ GAUZE VESTS, all sizes, from 2 to 40 im. just, arr ery desirable: ‘TRICE ach.

(Continued below.) Sour Usexrecren Bancarsa, Choice and exclusive Novelty Dress Goods are rarely coupled with the word barvain, The reason is that those who can afford such luxury are not influenced by price. Thus it ts tha’ the eredit store merchants ask moderate prices for the medium grades of gods, dut secure large profits for choice novelties. ‘The Palais Royal, makine « specialty of a cash business, can afford moderate profits when selling choice novel- ties, and therefore the following are bargains: 40-fuch Crocodile Suitings: ‘30-tnch Plisse Cloth .... 40-inch Bedfors Cord Crepons. 40-inch Jacquard Figured Cords.. 45-inch Two-tone Bedfords 40-inch Silk Stripe Suitings .. 40-inch New Foule Serves. Loxvox Bazan, 7b MARKET SPACE 40-inch Wide Wale Bedfords. 40-inch Novelty Crepons... $2 The above list embraces nearly if not all of the so-called exclusive novelties which are so ably de- scribed in the advertisements uf xr contemporaries. The difference in prices does not necessarily mean |" difference in qualities, as samples will prove. The fact is the choice fabrics you see at the var:ous stores are mainly all fromthe same manufacturers, who dis- pense certain desiens to each merchant. He who credits his patrons charges a high price for what he calls his exclusive novelty. The Palais Royal asks prompt payment and moderate prices for its consicn- ment—allare the same fabrics, but defer slightly in the stripeor ngure. Thus are credit merchants ‘*pro- tected” from the dreaded competition of the cash busl- ness merchant, who is abused without any just reason. Are not the merchants who credit and at the same time try to grub those who pay promptly the most at fault? LADIES' CLOAKS, CAPES AND NEWMARKETS, TUESDAY AND WEDAESDAX, FEBRUARY 23 AND 2%.
