‘THE. EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, ‘TUPSDAY January 31, 1293. «ROSBY 8. NOYES . Fitter. THE EVENING sTaR Permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that ofany other paper in the etty. vertising Medin: —- So the Honse committee on the District is for ite object the erection of a flower market. ‘The result of such legisiation would be merely to provide a fashionable down town meeting place. a beautiful building in which rare flowers and high prices will prevail. A place in it will be far beyond the reach of the poor country folk who bring in the wild flowers and « few Bumble plants of their own rearing. If it be right for the government to expend the people's funds in erecting «structure for florists why may it not put up a row of buildings on every available piece of public parking and rent the stores to shoe dealers and grocers and dry goods merchants and restaurant keepers and sellers of furniture? But, all other considera- tions aside, there should be no further trespass upon the few remaining reservations. One by one these beauty spots are being eliminated in the interests either of railroads or of alleged economy and the time has come to stop all efforts at continued encroachment. If the sup- porters of this flower market project are really anxious to bave it succeed let them organize = stock company, purchase a site. erect the build- ing and rent out the «pace. The idea, if devel~ oped by private enterprise, is an exceedingly attractive one and suggests a new ornament for the capital. But when Congress is haggling ever the appropriation of comparatively smail ame which are absolutely needed for the local ‘welfare it is no time to ask an expenditure of 990,000 upon the luxury of a flower market. — see Not until after the Fourth of March will the wail of the office-seeker thoroughly burden the air. bat the voice of him by whom or through whom official honors and emoiuments will be disvensed has already been uplifted. “My mail these days is something appalling.” says Senator Voorhees. “I have had experience before on the approach of an incoming ad- ministration, but nothing like this, I amdoing the best I can with the aid of shorthand writers to answer everything without much de- Jay, but I find the task impossible. T hope my friends in Indiana will be patient. Every letter reevived will be carefully noted and filed away for future reference and for consideration. No one shall be overlooked or neglected. My greatest regret is that there are so few offices to be given to so many worthy and capable appli- eants. It ite most painful duty, so far as T am concetned, to be compelled to decide between friends who are equally meritorious and cap- able It ix too bad that Senator Voorhees or any other political leader should be burdened in this manner, but the difficulties under which the Senator from Indiana labors are bein Guplicated in scores of cases. Every promi- nent democrat is being appealed to by the officially hungry and some of the vietims have been worried to such an extent as to make them wish away down in their hearts that Presi- dent Harrison had heen’ re-elected.

Prom the eventful hen this government was founded no one has successfully disputed the right of sena- torial committees to use up a large proportion of the congressional recess in investigating something or other that seemed to need inves- tigation. Even the sneering comments of those who were not on the committees, stig- matizing the searchers after information as | “junketers” were without effect. It is not im- probable that Senator Cockrell came near to hitting the nail squarely when he said he thought vacation committees were sufficiently | plentiful, but he objected at the wrong time when he selected the committee which Senator | Dubois wants to have look into the labor diffi- culties, which have disturbed Idaho so much during the past six months. ‘The country wants all the light thrown on those serious di | ferences between capital and labor; it wants to | know which is wrong. and why. —_—__+ = “Fifteen-minute sermons” are being advo- cated by The Hebrem Standard. This result may be reached much more easily and more generally to the public satisfaction than would bethe training of sixty-minute congregations. +--+ Dr. Cornelius Herz, of Panama canal noto- riety, has involuntarily joined the great minority. His name has been stricken from the roll of the Legion of Honor. — The Hawaiian queen was about to flood her country with small coin when she was deposed. It was a case of putting pennies in the slot and getting a revolution. — It is said that St. Louis claims to rival Boston | im the shoe business. She will presently be saying nice things about Chicago, with a view | to corralling that market. — —— One of the principal causes of the contempt | felt toward the Panama bribers seems to be the manner in which small fortunes were paid for ten-dollar men. soe —_ SHOOTING STAKS. “The way of tho transgressor is hard,” quoted a reprovingriend. “Perhags,” replied the seapegrace, “that is why he isn’t sMikely to get stuck in the mud.” “What I'am looking for,” said Bliggins just after he had rented a telephone, ‘is the man | who said that talk is cheap.” | There are pitiful libraries that consist only of a check book and a bank book. ‘The poet of snow has been hurried away; "Twill be weeks ere we hear from the poet of spring: To fill up the void will right lustily sing” A arst 1x ExBRYO. said Willie Wishington, “I'm “Bah Jov getting bwain-t What's the matter?” “Tve gota weal clevah thing.
