z THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY. . May 25, 1892. CROSBY S. NOYES 00 oes coool THE EVENING STAR bas a regular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that of any other paper in the city. As a lecal NEWS paper and Ad- Yertising Medium it has ne competitor. ‘The argument for the trolley is strogg when the choice is laid before some young and grow- ing town between horses and the overhead wire, ‘and where conditions are such that rapid transit can be secured in no other way than through the cheap trolley. Undoubtedly the danger and disfigurement of the overhead wires are ‘wisely endured in some communities as the in- dispensable conditions of rapid transit. And there are cases in which a minimizing of the evils of the trolley system, based on the charge Of ignorance concerning it, and an exaggeration of its benefits, are in a measure justified by re- sults in the public interest. But the whole trolley argument fails when it is applied to Washington. It is ridiculous to insinuate that the local almost universal opposition has its foundation in a lack of information, when two Of the best constructed and least objectionable trolley lines in the country have long been suc- cessfully operated in the city’s suburbs. The trolley 1s no novelty here. The proposition to give it the freedom of the city does not come clothed with strange terrors, The observant Washingtonian knows all about its merits and demerits. He knows what it is good for and what it is not good for. He tol- erates it in the suburbs as for the time the ‘only mechanical substitute for horse power that the amount of travel will permit. He opposes vigorously and emphatically its extension over the smooth residence streets of the city, now adorned with trees and parking, and over the comparatively narrow and crowded business sreeta. He does not reject the trolley in favor of the spavined horse or mule. There is no ob- stinate ignorance or old fogyism in his position, | He means that the capital shall have rapid transit, and be means, if his wishes have any weight, that the mecha motor by which rapid transit is effected shall be a vast improve- ment upon the overhead wire. The car horse must go, and the substitute for him at the cap- ital will be something better than the trolley. It is hardly worth while to argue to this com- munity that it cannot enjoy rapid transit and re- hef from mule transportation except by accept- ance of the trolley when it sees cable and storage battery motors in successful and satisfrctory operation upon its streets every day. ix has @ pneumatic motor im successful operation. Buda-Pesth for three years has enjoyed an elee- trie conduit system. Washington is promised by the Metropolitan a more extensive use of storage batteries than any other city in the world. Washington does not need to be edu- cated up to the trolley. It has outgrown the trolley. The overhead wire is now viewed and spoken of in Boston as a temporary makeshift between the car horse and a more desirable me- chanical motor than the trolley. It is in Wash- ington’s power to secure at once the best forms of motor without passing painfully through this intermediate stage between the spavined horse and the ideal mechanical motor. see Affairs are fast coming to a ertsis in England. It seems that the tories or conservatives are desirous of going to the country in the ap- proaching elections on some other issue than home rule for Ireland ; that is, home rule pure and simple. A digression is sought from the main question by the prime minister. If home Tale is to be the issue any how he would create such a feeling in Ulster as would, in his judg- ment, be sufficient to canse the anti-Gladstone liberals to continue voting with the govern- ment. At present some of them are dissatistied with their alliance with the tories and show a decided inclination to return to the liberal fold. It is calculated that the result of the last by- election is a symptom of a renewal of the alli- ance. Lord Salisbury is likewise endeavoring to inject other matters, some of them of a local Erocn Axp Ena ‘Tux ena or mevsovep tack MAXUPAC- TURE THAT WILL DATE FROM 1892.

Marre ty machinery marked an important era ta laces, and the various epochs in the history of their manufacture have led up to this new era—the intro- duction of lace that for beauty of design, execution and durability equals the precious hand-made laces of bygone days.

AX smaportant epoch in retailing where a Washine- ton merchant brings to his city thousands of yards of cholce Laces when merchants of much larger cities have at most but afew hundred yards. And yet the explanation fs very simple. The retailer calculates how many of his patrons can afford to pay very high Prices and buys accordingly. ‘These rare Point d'Ire- lande Laces cannot be imported to retail profitably at less than $1.98, $2.25, 82.50, $2.75 and $2.98 a yard, consequently the demand is swall. The importer sells a few pieces here and there, and finding the soa- son advancing and a large stock still on hand looks around for an ontlet. The Palais Royal buyer comes slong and the result is an epoch in Washington retail- ing that will be long remembered.

INEVITABLY THE GREAT COMING SUBURB OF ‘THE CAPITAL CITY, ‘The History of Washington real extate growth fs in- teresting and peculiar. It is a well-known fact that the Capitol was erected with its face toward what, from its natural advantages, was expected to be the principal portion of the city. Instead of following what seemed to be the natural direction of growth,the population, as if in obedience to some irresistible and unknown law, turned tothe west, just as it always does. The growth of nations and of communities is invariably from east to west. In Washington this growth is now inevitable, not only because of this ten- dency, but becanze of the necessity for space. The Mine of progress $s distinctly marked in Washington and its suburbs, and espectal development of any sec- tion depends on two things: First, the advantages which nature originally provides, and second, the en- terprise and character of the people upon whom the development depends. The growth of Washington is so great and rapid that suburban property must inevitably come into urgent demand. Comparison of the prices twenty and ten years ago with the present prices of real estate shows how wonderful the development of the city has been. ‘The gains in value during the last five years alone have been tremendous, The increase of population isnot only aguide asto the past, but an index for the future. In 1850 Washington's population was 51,687; in 1860, 75,080; in 1870, 151,700; 1880, 177.624, while the last census gives 230,500. W. A. Prence & Co. ‘719 MARKET SPACE, COR. 8TH ST. AND PENNA. AVE.
