An increase in the number of poles | and wires on the streets of any city i# undesi able for reasons that are thoronghly understood, | and the objections to an aggravation of this o! fensive and dangerons disfigurement of s city’s sppearance apply with ten-fold force in the eae of Washington. The capital is not a coun try village to grasp desperately at the res end nasty” variety of rapid transit motor order to keep pace with ambitious | competitorn Nor is it # great commer- ial city whove rapid business development wast be accomplished at all hazards, sacrifice fing attractiveness of appearance without hes- itation in the race for dollars and centa, The} wain strength of Washington is that of woman: her beauty. Among American cities the capi- | tal fs notable for broad, smooth, tree-lined and park-intersected streets and avenues. It is now | Gcliderately proposed to destroy this character- | fetic charm of the nation’s beautiful etty in order that a few men may put money in their purses. Who in all Washington demands this | aggravation of the overhead wire evil except | electric and street railway companies and their | dependents and agents? Are « few seliish mon | ready to face the indignation of « whole com- munity? What legislator without a pecuniary | imterest in an clectrie or street railway com- pany will urge this desecration and disfigure- ment of the nation’s city? | The advocates of the trolley pronounce it | success in other cities. Boston is its great dis- plsy ground. An editorial from the Boston Transcript, printed elsewhere in Tux Stan, | Presents it in ite trne aspect as “a first erude experiment, « passing incident in electrical de- velopment.” which Borton is now eager to dis- piace by some improved motor. Washington may profit by Boston's experience. The ex-| periment has been tried upon the dog and the | dog is now sick and yelping. Washington wants | improved rapid transit motors, and it wants the best that have been devised. It docs not want to be afflicted with “a crude experiment” which electrical science has outgrown. New York, Washington and several cities of Europe have satisfactorily working storage Battery systems. Paris and Nantes in France and Berne, Switzerland, have succesful com- prewed air «ystems Buda Pesth, Hungary, hes an electric underground conduit system, covering the greater part of acity of half million people, and working to the complete Satisfaction of the public. It is only in new and progressive America that invention is paralyzed and rapid-tronsit progress checked | By covetous trolley capitalists. a ‘The troliey current kills, though its advocates make sweeping assertions to the contrary. The Jatest death from this artificial lightning oc- curred last August, and was confessed at the | time by both the electric railway and the elec- tric journals, though it now seems to be con- veniently forgotten. The Port Huron (Mich.) electric railway company reporting concerning | this case of lineman killed by its trolley wire says: “We tested our current twice during the | same day and found that it was running at 500 | ‘Volts and a little under at times. There was no | post-mortem made, the maz to all appearances | Being strong and healthy. ‘The current, you ‘will notice, passed directly through the left side, and may thus have caused @ fatality that | under other circumstances would not have happened.” In this case, by the rail- way's admission, a strong and healthy man wes killed & current of 500 volts or less, and the only reassuring | suggestion tendered is to the effect that if the eurrent had not touched the victim's vital or- gans they would probably have remained un- affected by it. By the same logic the didn’t- Inc #-twasloaded pistol might be vindicated from the accusation of being deadly in its mature and capacity in case it happened merely to blow « flager or two froma ite victim's band | instead of sending the bullet through some | Vitel organ. Or one might pooh-pooh the sug-| gestion of danger from lightning. if partial, Bappily diverted stroke happened not to destroy Ate. | soe Christopher Davies is an English anarchist ‘Like others of his kind he is rabid on the sub-| fect of property distribution. To show the | world how be and his associates would act if | they had the power he broke the window of | Jewelry store in Birmingham and scattered the | products of honest men's industry in the street, erying the while, “Long live anarchy!” Mr. | Davies is now in an institution where there is absolute equality among the inmates and where | Bo one possesses any more than another. But the troubie is he will not be there very long. —— es ‘There is s prospect of moderation in the Weather, and with it comes the prospect that | the good-natured public will, like the historic | fesident of Arkansas, forget that such a thing es bad weather and a coul combine ever ex- | inted. — —— Ap Indiaxs man aged 70 was recently par-| doned by the governor after being sentenced to fmpriscpment and dustranchisement for baying @ vote Whatever the mitigating circumstances | may bave bees, the fact must stand out strongly ‘that be was old evough to know better. — es The bold society horseman who pursnesanise- ered bags and «moked herrings is on the safe fide of the hunting proposition. A fox chase fm New Jersey ended in the fox biting one of ‘the men who chased him. ee ‘Mr. Carnegie’s preseace at Homestead will doubtless do « great deal toward making affairs ‘there progress with something of: their former smoothness. ——_++—____ Of the many public contributions to the Bering Sea coutroversy none is more interest- fing end valuable than the argument, recently im pamphlet form, of James C. . President and professor of Interna- | tmctosed tm patent hives of the latest construc- | tion and most costly variety.” | and some of them propose to contest | requested to blow up that structure to This con- tention is, beyond question, thoroughly sound. Then there is interesting discussion in which the three-mile limit figures somewhat. The owner of a swarm of bees—to return to the old simile—has his property right protected even when the bees are on the property of another; why should not the seal rights of the United States be irrefragable when tue seals cross the three mile limit and venture into ocean terri- tory over which no one may legally exercise x- elusive jurisdiction? a El Tempo, which is published in the City of Mexico, says that the United States desires to absorb Mexico. Our esteemed ‘cotemporary is imerror. So long as Kansas remains in tho Union the people of this country will not look outside the boundary lines for excitement. a —- Peter Jackson is to play in “Uncle Tom's Cabin.” This may be all right for Peter, but it is a libel on Uncle Tom. ee Congress is so ponderous an intellectual body that it hardly overcomes its inertia before it is time for it to adjourn. —— Never were tributes sincerer than those which the nation makes tothe memory of James G. Blaine. a TE WEEK. ‘The week which closes to night has been one of the most mournful, in « sympathetic sense, the United States has experienced for some time past. Three most eminent men, James G. Blaino, Associate Justice L. Q. C. Lamar and Bishop Phillips Brooks, have gone to their re- ward, leaving behind them countless hosts of sorrowing ad: re, Financially the feature of the week was the failure of the Capitol National Bank at Lincoln, b., in which the state was caught for the sum of $250,000. The failure aroused great indignation, and a resolution has been iutro- duced in the Nebraska legislature to impeach Gov. Crounse for carelessuess in the matter of n. Politically things have been somewhat calm, even in Congress; the only disturbance being | credited to Representative Kilgore of Texas, | who by fillibustering prevented the considera- tion of the Torrey bankruptcy bill. In Kan- sas the populists succeeded in electing Judg John Martin to succeed Bishop Perkins t the republicans and democrats he election of Mr. Martin is illegal, is title toaseat when he reaches the United States Senate. Wisconsin has elected Representative John L. Mitchell to succeed Senator Philetus Sawyer. Only one mob of any size threatened to dis- turb the country’s peace. and that assembled at Denver. For some time past Dr. Hart, the organizer of a crusade aguinst Sunday places of amusement, has been making things very un- comfortable for those who supported or ‘were supported by the wide-open music balls and theaters. In response to his efforts several of the houses were closed, whereupon the audiences who were necessarily thown into the streets damaged the preacher's house and came very near doing the dector himself serious injury. Int etic world the only feat worthy of of note—and it was a very great feat—was the breaking of the one hundred mile skating record by Joe Donoghue, at Stamford, in 7 hours, 11 38 1-5 seconds, or four hours less than the dis- tance was ever before covered in. ACROSS THE ATLANTIC. In foreign lands there have been no occur- rences of great international importance. ‘The Panama canal scandal has not become any less odorous, nor has the Italian government thrown any considerable quantity of light upon the Dank wrecks which have disturbed Rome for some time past. The disaster of the week oc- curred in Bohemia, where 130 miners lost their lives, but outside of this awful occurrence the record of the calamities is more than usually small. ‘The regular explosion of dynamite took place, this timo in Rome—where the Hotel d’Angleterre was wrecked, but not, it is be lieved, for any political cause; a discharged se: vant is suspected. While the Italian authori- ties were looking for the author of this crime the English police were releasing from Portland prison Francis Egan, who has secured a rather unenviable reputation as a dynamiter; he is now on his way to this country, of course. Consideration of the budget in the French chamber threatened for a time to result in the usual number of duels, which or- dinarily follow a heated debate in’ that body, but it approved and there were no efforts at bisodsued. The Baltimore inci- dent at Valparaiso has been brought to mind by the demand for reparation which Italy makes of Brazil. It will be remembered that a num- ber of warm-blooded Brazilians at San Paulo attacked and seriously injured » number of Ttalian sailors and residents, and for this Italy demands apologies and cash. Socially, the fer ture was the marriage of the Princess Margaret (youngest sister of the kaiser), who wedded Prince Frederick Charles of Hesse at Borlin, in the presence of a moet distinguished audience, and, just about the time when this marriage was taking place, Lady Alice Gooch commenced her raey divorce suit in Londo: WITHIN THE DISTRICT, Locally the one absorbing question has been “Will there be a flood when the ice breaks up? Congress appropriated €5,000 which the Com- missioners were authorized to expend in the hire of tags, and an effort is now being made to break a wide channel from Georgetown to the bay. The proposition has been seriously ad- vanced by business men that in case an ice gorge forms at Long bridge the authorities be revent the damage to city property which would take Flace if the bridge be allowed to remain in its Present position. ‘The Schneider case still continues to attract lie interest. The Supreme Court of the District has ordered that next weck a com- mission of three experts shall decide as to the y 7 of the murderer. Congressionally about all that has been done for the District was the confirmation of Asso- ciate Justice Louis E. McComas, whose nomi- nation caused quite a bitter political Aight: the confirmation of Associate Justice C. C. Cole is looked for at the next executive session of the Senate. —— SHOOTING STAKS. ‘The supply of sensational luridness is likely [to be much impaired if France continues to burn its scandal at both euds in this manner, It is appalling to consider what the coming generation will probably think of our style of dress if hoops come into fashion again.
