THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C, FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1898-TEN PAGES—WITH SUPPLEMENT. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY... pril 7, 1893. cRossy 8 NOYES... Editor. THE EVENING STAR basa regular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that efany other paper in city. As = lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Medium it bas ne competitor. Disinterested voluntary labors for the public welfare, like those proposed for itself by the Sanitary League would seem to deserve and would be expected to receive the unanimous endorsement of the people. But in truth, “We're all poor critters,” and the perverse con- ditions of fallen human nature invariably de- velop a few who cast obstacles in the way of | every public movement, no matter how high and unselfish its aims. It is unfortunate that there should be a single citizen of ‘Washington who, in a cholera year, would withhold personal attention and interest from the sanitary condition of his premises, of his neighborhood, and his city, because there is an offical ‘who u paid to look after these things, or who would prefer « visit of the cholera to Washington, or that the city’s average death rate shoul remain unduly exalted. or that the health of the little ones of his family should be endangered by local conditions exist- ing through ignorance or carelessness, rather than that sanitary improvement should be ac- complished through Tom, Dick or Harr; whom he dislikes, and who, he fears, may se- cure some measure of regard from the com- munity by voluntarily giving time and money to this public work. ‘This organized movement of citizens is now and has been from the beginning in perfect ac- cord with the District authorities. One of its original members and the chairman of an im- portant committee is now the Commissioner in charge of the health department, which has been recently so gratifyingly active in sanitary work. Publications by and concerning the league have turned the attention of the citizens to sanitary matters in an extraordinary degree, and all over the city the process of self-inspection, nuisance-abatement and voluntary cleaning up is going on as s result. Other cities have be- come interested in our citizens’ movement and | propose to follow suit. ‘The wish of the local authorities, the san- itary league and good citizens generally is to ward off all danger of a cholera epidemic from Washington this summer, to reduce materially | the average death rate and to secure for! the capital the same reputation as an epidemic- | proof city that adds to the delights of residence and swells property values in certain European cities, Whatever any one does in the direction | of accomplishing these purposes will receive the approval and co-operating support not only | ofevery public-spirited but of every intelli- gently seltish citizen, — Whether accidentally or as the result of = hastily-formed desire to be rid of self-mad cares a life was ended last night many years | before it should have terminated naturally. ‘The flame of feeble origin that had grown | steadily until it was a mercantile beacon of | great magnitude, and that four years ago flashed | up blood red to horrify the community, steadily declined from that fateful June evening. dwindled in latter days to a spark, sputtered spasmodically for awhile and then, without warning, went out. With the darker side of Frank Ward's nature no one will now claim se- quaintance, and it will properly be buried in the unexpected grave, but the lesson of his life and its fearful conclusion should de taught every boy who is old enough te have a realizing sense of personal responsibility. Inebriety, born of a desire to be known as “‘a good fellow,” is just as dan- gerous as that which responds to depraved taste, and as frequently results in disaster. The ‘evils of association with unprincipled men and ‘money-loving women need no sermon to make their immorality and consequent destructive- ness apparent. The indisputable facts are here and this is the proper though painful time for emphasizing their teachings. One who pos- sessed superior business ability and enjoyed the regard and hearty co-operation of thousands shed the blood of an unoffending man, achieved bankruptcy, and is now a fearfully mangled corpse. And vicious good-fellowship rought all the mischief. —— +22 —_ Evidence of a material increase of public in- terest as to local sanitary matters is found in the condemnation which is properly being poured out upon those who are alleged to be guilty of selling impure milk. No natural pro- duet is #0 sensitive to contaminating surround- ings as is the iacteal fluid which to so many is| am absolute necessity. The severest penalties will not it the offeuse of selling adulterated milk. Then there is active opposition to the announced purpose of the ice companies as to the nondelivery of ice on Sundaya. The Medi- | eal Society sees danger to health in the pro-| posed hiatus of one day and it is going to con- sider the matter from scientific and humane | standpornts, All these movements show an awakening of the public hitherto careless in such matters, due to the educative forces ema- nating from those who are determined to mal Washington the healthiest as it is the most beautiful of all American cities. —— ‘The treatment of the American flag in Peru surprised to hear, in the ex-Senator’s words, ‘that “‘after futile and costly resistance, the dram-shop traffic has disappeared from the state.” Surreptitious sales continue, club | drinking and “Joints” are not unknown, but | the saloon has vanishedgand the law has been | better enforced than similar legislation else- where. He admits that in the large towns pro- | hibition is not so strictly observed as in the rural districts, where public opinion 1s more rigid, but he is satisfied that | im all localities the beneficent results are appa- | rent in the diminution of crime, poverty and disorder. “Banned by law, the occupation is stigmatized and becomes disreputable. If the | offender avoids punishment, he does not eseape | contempt.” Mr. Ingalls’ conclusions will be | used asa text by temperance orators for some time to come. “Drinking being in secret,” says he, “temptation is diminished. the weak are protected from their infirmities, and the young from their appetites and passions.” Who wants to shjver a spear or two on the brilliant Kansan’s prohibitory shield? —_——__++2—___ In connection with the story as to the attack made by a Peravian mob upon » subconsuiate of the United States it has been said that in many cases where the natives assault the sub- consulate the trouble is due, not to any antag- onism to the country represented, but to prejudice and ill-feeling against the representa- tive personally. The allegation continues to the effect that this is not an uncommon cecur- rence in South America or in other parts of the world where the acts of = mercantile consular agent are resented by the people who would re- spect the acts of acitizen of the United States duly appointed toa fufl consular position. There should be no distinction merely because of a difference in rank or even in the nationality of the agent. Vice-consuls and consular agents represent this country just as much in the eyes of foreigners as do consuls, and they should be as solidly defended as an ambassador would be. ‘The individual cuts no figure at all Itis the flag that has to be respected, no matter who or what is damaged in the process that may be necessary to compel proper conduct toward the stars and stripes and all that the tricolored bunting shelters. The creation of a title and billet for J. H. Soper is also announced. He is to be “com: mander of the forces, with the rank of colo- nel.” ‘This would indicate that the gentlemen ofthe P. G. have become demented from the mental strain of the times. A more veritable | “chump” than Soper does not live in these islands, and every man in the executive coun- cil rhould be well aware of that fact. In our youth we had a little military training, and the ‘opportunity for considerable military observa- tion. We always supposed. in our ignorance, that before a man was qualified for the lofty position of ‘commander of the forces, with the rank of colonel,” he should be able to distin- guish between “straw foot.” better.— Hono- The above editorial may have been the result of earnest thought and honest conviction, but there is something in its styie that must make | the reader pause and ‘consider the annexation | question all over again. The style of journal- ism that the United States is gathering in is not an insignificant consideration, and Hawaii should not rely too strongly on the symmetry to be achieved by balancing the sensational | journalism of New York with something in the way of rollicking personality in the extreme western section of the country. ee SS SHOOTING STARS.
