4 . THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY. March 23, 1893. CRossr 8. NoTES Editor. THE EVENING STAR bas « regular and permanent circulation In Washington three times larger thas that efany other paper im the city. As a lecal NEWS paper and Ad~ vertising Medium It has ne competitor. ‘Special days are to be a great feature at the world’s fair. Nearly if not quite every state in the Union will have its day, upon which spe- cial exercises will be held, and its governor and staff, other state officers, militia and thousands of ite distinguisbed and other citizens will be im attendance. Receptions will be held at the state buildings and the governors and others will make speeches. Have there been any ar-| rangements made looking to such a celebration by the District of Columbia? not? The District will not have a building of its own, for Congress, controlled presumably by the ides that as Washington is the national cap- tal it should place its exhibit in the government building, declined to make suy appropriation from the District rev- enues for « distinctively local display in ® purely local habitation. The congressional | conclusion was probably correct, for before anything else Washington is the capital of the | Union. But this merging of mere local into the broadly national need have no deterrent ef- fect upon those who would like to see a District of Columbia day prominent among the features of the exposition program; a day when the Wash- | ingtonians who would be in Chicago shoald | assemble in the great structure devoted te the uses of the general government and there iisten to oratory and music furnished by Washington | It could Some time speakers and Washington musicians. be made a memorable occasion. during the than six or seven hundred members of the District National Guard will go into camp not far from the fair grounds. It could doubtless be 40 arranged that the visit of this provisional regiment and the celebration suggested would be coincident. This proposi- tion should commend itself to the District Com- missioners, who are the proper persons to move publicly in the matter. The expense of such a celebration would be extremely «mall, hardly worth mentioning. and the few dollars necded And if uot, why | exposition period no fewer, | movements are declared to be moat easly acces- sible to corrupt influences, and in estimating an elected body the members who were victorious | on those tickets are placed on the directly pur- | chasable list without much inquiry. Editors of country newspapers and newspapers in small cities are next on the list, and they with country lawyers and a certain class of city lawyers, are alleged to gloss over their connec- tion with dubious schemes by the pre- (a of professional services. Men who hyprocritically claim to be religious are | also declared to be easy prey, but they are so | cautious that the agent often finds them slippery and complains that “‘they won't stay bought.” | Unaccustomed social attentions almost in- variably capture the farmer. The remedy | for this corrupt state of affairs is, says this man | who has turned states’ evidence, to elect no | man to office who is not free from debt, to pub- lically discuss the private circumstances of nominees, for until state and municipal legis- latures are composed of men whose incomes habitually exceed their expenses municipal cor- ruption will continue. and there wil! be bribery wherever water-works, gas-works or electrical plants are to be established, street franchises granted, and school text-books adopted. Re- luctantly it must be admitted that conscientious scruples are often absent when public funds are being drawn upon, but we are at liberty to in- dulge in the hope that things are not quite so somber of hue as is the picture painted by this | concealed artist. We may at least congratulate ourselves that under our peculiar form of local government, which being non-elective is not in- | eluded in the sweeping condemnation, such rottenness is almost, if not quite, impossible. cumin Sarmaaemd Some of these days an apparently guileless stranger will secure rights giving him control of the enormous water-power now wasting its energies in the vicinity of the Great Falls of the Potomac. ‘Then he will establish a suffi- | cient plant, and by means of wires transmit to this city controllable force sufficient to run all | the machinery in the District of Columbia. The idea is not a new one—it has often been ad- vanced by Tue Stam aud has been practically demonstrated in Europe. Now it is | about to be operated in California. A |Sen Antonio company is having a power | plant set up in the San Antonio canon, | where there iss minimum flow of 1,300 cubie feet of water per minute under a head of about | 400 feet. The water is conveyed to the power station in pipes, where it revolves a number of could be gathered in an hour or two by a single | tarbine wheels that are coupled to the arma- energetic citizen.

It is all well enough to take care of one’s own relatives in matters of private busi- ness enterprise, where risks of loss as well as | chances for profit are to be taken into the ac-| count, and where the results of a bad appoint- ment affect only the individual om firm who makes it; but it isan entirely different fair when the effects of corrupt or inefficient ad- ministration of positions thus given as favors fall upon the pubiic at large. ‘The parceling out of oficial positions in any | branch of the pubiic service—whether it be civil, military, or naval—to the members of a| few families, their descendants and collateral | connections, is wholly at variance with the ge- | nius and theory of republican institutions. It is | to an extreme degree demoralizing to the serv- | ice itself, by creating in the mind of the select | few thus favored the feeling that they area privileged class,not responsible to any authority | nor amenable to public opinion, thereby lead- | ing to insolence and inefficiency in office. And ‘The practice of nepotism, which | pidly in the last few years, and seems to be steadily increasing in every depart- | ment of the public service, directly weakens | the faith of the people in the reality of a publican form of government and tends to sap | and destroy that sentiment of patriotism in the mind of r.sing generations, which those ia au- | thority cannot too seduiousiy cultivate. j ‘The Presiden: therefore does well in refusing | to encourage or sanction this prevalent and / dangerous drift. He may well go farther. He | should <lso promptly begin and persistently | follow = thorough and sweeping system of! weeding out the many conspicuous examples of the abuse now existing in every brauch of the | public service. No step that he can take will | do more to purify and elevate it. | see | Senatorial courtesy may be keeping up its | end in the interesting controverss which is go- | ing on as to the Senate oifices, but senatorial dignity has suffered a little. +20 In spite of Jobn L.

There is great danger of sending ap innocent man to the legwlatare. | —— | ee A higher genezal average of civilization and | the rapid increase of knowledge ought, if mere Yeasoning amounts to anything, to result in vastly improved private aud public morals, but | the forward movement cannot be rapid so long ‘as this nation regards itself as the only model | and keeps on reproducing the faalts that to the | liberally critical are clearly apparent. Yet we should be sorry to believe that some phases of | our condition are as bad as they are depicted in | sn anonymous contribution to The Forum | which discusses “the science of municipal cor-| ruption.” That the writer, who for obvious | reasons prefers to be unkuown, is on terms of | intimacy with his subject and that his expe-| riences bave given him a poor opinion of a ma-{ jority of his fellow beings is painfully evident. He starts out with the affirmation that municipal government is corrupt simply because corrupt and corruptibie men are elected to office. Cor- Tupt men are elected to office because office “pays,” and corruptible men yield because they make money by yielding, and if mu- nicipal governments had no profitablecontracts to award, if a hraeateeees ome] select, we should, he thinks, have no municipal problem. Then comes the alarming state-| of light and power. Washingtonians? oe yy ener Mr. Hill is said to be once more inspecting his horoscope to see if he can't find 1896 men- tioned in it somewhere.
