THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. = ‘THE EVENING STAR bas a regelar and permacent circulation in Washington three times larger than that efany ether paper in the city. As = lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Medium it has ne competiter. “costly, but the money and the brains are alike available, and the result must be that within an easily measurable period of time searchers ‘after the truth of all ages will find their ma- ‘‘erial and therr opportunities not at Oxford or ‘psychical workings have already brought hither ‘men and women of eminence in that delightful realm of form and color; others of international repute are following, and before the century closes art too will have its American home ‘within the District of Columbia. Unfortunately for themselves and for the good name of a great city the female lunatics ‘who are a charge on the city of New York and are confined in the Blackwell's Island asylum have no votes. For this reason and because of Gotham's notorious inhumanity they suffer disgraceful overcrowding and are in immi- nent danger of cruel death. The grand jury has inspected the asylum, but instead of con- tenting itself with s perfunctory visitation nd a luncheon in the superintendent's resi- dence it moved around and saw conditions as they are. Then the jury reported that while ‘the adtsinistration of the institution was ad- ‘mirable the asylum itself “is a disgrace to Abis great city. {Patients crowded into buildings the utmost ‘eapacity of which should be considered as cer- ‘tainly not over 1,200, and in some rooms there are seven cots, and many of the hallways have ‘cots in them.

Believing it to be ‘quite possible that even in this enlightened era ‘there are individuals who have no real know!- tedge of the pantocratic idea Tae Sram pre- ents some of its muin features as framed 4m & semiperiodical known as The Na- tional Pantocrat and published in this city. Universal freedom from debt is the main ob- Ject toward which pantocracy is steering itself, ‘and to bring about such a desirable condition ©f affairs it is proposed to have the Secretary of the Treasury pay the debts of the United States—and as the Secretary might soon run ‘out of cash the pantocrats have planned to take eare of any possible deticiency by giving the Seo- etary authority to run the presses ofthe Burean of Engraving and Printing night and day until he has a sufficiency. This is so simple that many persons upon reading this will surely Wonder at the foolishness which pays interest upon bonds. Another branch of pantocratic reform touches on the important subject of taxation. Property is to be exempt aud money enly is to be taxed. Under the new regime currency is merely a debt-paying power, which fs to be taxed out of existence in ten years, the annual depreciation of money being at the rate ef ten per cent. Gold is to be demonetized and silver demarketized in the millennial time which But the financial plank in the pantocratic platform is Bo more attractive than many other timbers. 4 to follow the success of pantocracy. Under the administration of a pantocratic President and Congress the wages of all per- ‘sons—no matter what their duties—employed by the republic will be four dollars ay of four hours and one year out transportation is to fix railroad fares at rates ‘that shall not exceed one mill per mile: » de- partment of publie communication will rent telephones for four dollars a year and send tele- grams of thirty words a thousand miles for ten cents. Then thedepartment of pablie educa- tion ts to limit the hours of study in public schools to three per day and to psy people for attending such schools, while the department of public insurance will proceed to do away with all insurance companies: by offering better rates. All printing is to be done by the government, because the government can do it more cheaply than private firms. The de- partment of public buildings is to design and supply buildings in which the great American it. | nation may reside rent free; the department of public fisheries will “catch and cure fresh and salt fish” for popular consumption; the depert- ment of public finids is to sapply people with gas and water of the greatest possible excel- Tence at the lowest possible cost; while the de- partment of public amusomentsis to be bur- dened with the task of amusing the multitude. There are many other departments provided for in the pantocratic plan, and they will be fully explained to ull persons who desire to fle from the political wrath to come, and who be- lieve that their only shelter is beneath the ‘wings of pantocracy. ‘The enthusiastic panto- | 1° crat is s fine sample of what an unchained human mind may come to. ee Of the many subjects discussed by men for the benefit of themselves and their fellows few ere of more genuine importance than that which deals with the principles of success in business. It may not be generally known. but the fact exists nevertheless that more than 90 per cent of the men who go into business for themselves sooner or later achieve dis- aster, so there is every reason why all attention should be paid the utterances of those who have proven themselves the ex- ceptions. Oneof these is President Duncan MacArthur of the Commercial Bank of Mani- toba, and in the Banking Law Journal he dis- cusses the methods of success so that any ome can comprehend them. Mr. McArthur makes no pretension to literary greatness, but he has managed to say many excellent things which should be read and remembered by every young man who is about to strike out from the shores of parental control. Of pri- mary importance aze the physical qualifications and in that connection comes the recommenda- tion that all who desire to do the work of life in an efficient and successful manner should Jearn the laws of health and obey them implicitly. With regard to the mental qualifica- tions necessary two of the most important are inteltigence and good judgment. Good habits are essential to success, while the bad habits against which warning ts loudest are gambling and extravagance. Integrity is a eupreme necessity and on this President MacArthur dwells foreibly. “Honesty is said, in popular phrase,” he declares, ‘‘to be the best policy. It should be spoken of as the best principle. When a business man h.s once acquired a character for integrity, and it is not acquired at once—for confidence is a plant of slow growth—it practically becomes an addi- tion to his capital, for character is capital as much as money. It is, indeed, capital of a more durable kind than money, for if a man retains his integrity his character will remain even if bis money takes unto itself wings and flies away.” System ia also ealogized, for by doing things systematically more work can be done in @ given time and it can be accomplished with greater; satisfaction. Patient, unflagging perseverance fa becoming acquainted with every detail of the business undertaken and the acquiremoat of « | habit of industry—a habtt that, like +) others, will grow—are commended as being officient aids. But of the many helps to solidity and for- tune none is greater than printers’ ink. “At the present day,” says Mr. MacArthur, “when newspapers and periodicals of all kinds are issuing with such rapidity from the press and spreading all over the Jand, it is easy to see that advertising has be- come a matter of much more importance and necessity than it has éver hitherto been. No business man can hope to keep his footing who does not advertise constantly. The necessity for so doing is obvious. The great is, which of the many available vehicles to choose for the purpose. The paper or magazine which has the largest circulation in the particular locality which constitutes the sphere of the advertiser's business must necessarily be a good medium for his purpose.” All of which is indisputable fact. ——_.eo—__ ‘The Philadelphia Record reached the age of “sweet sixteen” on Thursday. and it celebrated the anniversary of its birthday by publishing twenty-four pages of extremely interesting matter.
