THE EVENING STAR. - WASHINGTON. monmey. NOTES crossy THE EVENING STAR bas = permanent cireulation in Washingtea three times larger than that of any other paper bn the city. Ax a local NEWS paper and Ad~ Vertining Medium it hay ne competitor. tio tover will be made in the hopes op aber ecr 100.000 from the of the District of Columbia for the inment of the Grand Army encampment achingten. The oppoxition has been d by the fact that the bill originally sp- propriated che money from the federal treat ly Journal, Lincoln, Neb. ‘The order of Commanler Palmer, printed in today’s Star, develops clearly the mixappreben- sion tinder which our fr of Lincola have Inbored. The money must be apprepriated freaa the federal treasury because all our taxes are paid into it—the national being also the only local treasury—and the appropria- tion is from “the revenues of the District,” thengh the government contributes. became under the aw and in justice and equity theme District revenues inelude a government contri- bution, Washington has applied to its only local legislature to appropriate from the only treasury which it bas, precieely in the same manner and upon the mune terms in and upon which all other municipal appropriations are made. It ix evident from recent statements that the removal of this misapprehension is causing the whole Grand Army, Nebraskans in- eluded, to be of one mind in the hearty endorse- ment of the liberal appropriation from its imani- cipal funds which Washington proposes, as a supplement to ite private subscription, for the worthy entertainment of the Grand Army. Some of our legislators have suggested in view of the opposition, based upon the misap- prehension indicated, which has met the propo- sition for an encampment appropriation on the legal and customary terms of District appro- priations, that an exception be made in the case of this expenditure, that the lw which makes the goverament in effect a local taxpayer be suspended im respect to it, and that indi- vidual taxes be exelasively levied upon for the purpose. This plan is called @ cumpro- mie, but is mirscalled, for i is more damnging to the interests of the District than a refusal of the appropriation would be. Every dollar of the local resident's tax money paid into the treasury is, under the hw, goed for two dollars whea expended on municipal objects. ‘The proyosi- tion is to spend, as $100,000, a portion of thi tax fond which if spent on any other ma- nicipal object would mean $200,000. It is propo-ed to realize upon an investment at par, when if it were not realized upon until sine other time or for some other pur- pose, it would bring 160 per cent premium, The District would surrender $200,000 from the improvement uf ils streets, support of its tm, tnereane of its police, &e., in Order tu 2 pment. se would be nnbusinéss- lke and would involve an extravagance which onr economien! legislature, if it be true to ite principles, is not t ali likely to force upon us. It wo volve the bad and dangerous precedent of tam- pering with the law fixing the financial relations Of uation aud capital. ‘The city has nut aked Congress to make an appropriation, in one way preferably, but in another way if it mast be so, and im ull events to make an appropriation. It bas simply pro- posed a certain item of municipal expenditure on the same basis as other such items, and its legislature is asked to authorize or reject. Those who believe that the expenditure is a proper one for the municipality to make, and who approve the entertainment of the veterans, will vote for the appropriation. Those who bave constitutional scruples or dislike to be put even indireetly in a friendly attitude toward the ex-soldiers of the Union will vote against it, ———_+-_<_. ‘The Supreme Court of the District, ina clear able and pointed opinion, sustains the course taken by the commission and the President in the establinhment of Rock Creek Park, and their construction of the law upon which their action was based. In the cases of all the property owners but two interests, which have appealed, the court directs under the pro- visions of the law that the money to compen- sate them for the land which the government bas taken be paid into court. The money to make these payments was appropriated by the last Congress, and only national bank- ruptey or repeating legislation by this Congress, neither of which is an existing fact, can justify refusal or neglect to promptly carry out the law. Mr. Holman’s personal request is not a mandate of Congress. —— +02 ___ ‘Mr. Gladstone's refusal to see the advocates of the eight-hour movement and the evident the tory leaders to take advantage of the fae: to change the issue from home rule to the labor questicn embarrasses the liberals momentarily. The leaders of the liberal party having promptly taken the matter in hand, how- ever, and shown their interest in the movement the government party is not going to make all the capital oat of the agitation. It is not probable, under any circumstances, that the home rule question can be shelved even temporarily. The radicalizing of England, when aceomplithed, will not be credited to the y propesed by the Methodists, and which is now apparently on the road to suecess. The proposition that has passed the conference, requesting the house of bishops to set apart October 16 a8 a university day, mects with great favor, and, it would seem, ought to be adopted, unless another time is better suited for the purpose. Washington, the seat of the proposed institution, is watching with deep interest all that coucerus its founda- ton. ————~e2+—___ ‘Senator Hill's war of retaliation on Repre- sentative OFerrall for the fatter's manly course in the Rockwell election case may cause e ripple of excitement for a moment, but it ean hardly sesame the proportions of @ mational ie gue oF promote the purpose in view. —— ee A Freuch editor declares that his country- men watch American politics with great interest Decause they wish to see what democracy is when Jef to develop freely. This would indicate that France prefers to have her politics tried first on the dog. ——_—_ +e Zola calmly asserts that the most the an- archist: can do is to blow npa few more houses. ‘There is no doubt that the realistic school of fiction induces a very cold-blooded way of look- ing at things ————_~+ +2 —___ ‘The Arkansas people's party wants to “go it alone” in elections. It is very gravely to be doubted, notwithstanding the dignity of such an attitude, whether the people's party can af- ford to be unsociable. ——++-.—___. ‘The country is on the threshold of that period of delightfal optimism, which precedes an elec- tion. Everybody believes that his candidate ‘will be elected and that the greatest prosperity will result. ———~e—___ ‘The time for summer excursions is at hand. ‘Washington is peculiarly fortunate in this con- nection.
