4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘THURSDAY.. - Sune 2%, 1893. ‘THE EVENING STAR has a regelar and permasent circulation in Washington three ttmeslarger than that ofany ether paper in the clay. As a local NEWS paper and Ad- vertishug Wedium it has ne competitor. ‘The spectacle of Pennsyivania scolding the United States government because the latter has not mterfered to save the Gettysburg bat- tlefield from trolley vandals would be laughter- 1g wore it not for the distressing facts that have recently directed especial toward the historic ground. Naturally enough s cousiderable proportion of the American peo- ple desire the salvation and preservation of the sacred tract, but only » few will sympathize ‘with the Philadelphia Press in its condemna- thon of the general government for so far failing ‘to do that which the Keystone state undoubt- ‘edly has the power to do for itself. Comment {ng upon and commending the pretiminary report made to the Seorstary of War by Col ‘Batchelder the Press says that “it ts not sur- prising that Col. Batchelder felt the necessity of @ prompt report on thesituation, There was ‘every need of it,and there is much greater feed of prompt sction on the part of the War Department if anything at all isto be saved ‘This agitation bas been going on some time— nearly two months—and while the department has displayed considerable interest in response to appeals to it, it bas not yet ascertained ‘whether it has any suthority in the matter or if there has been an expenditure of force ix. any other fashion we do not know it. “Meantim continues the Press, “those who are building the road are not waiting for anyihing to be determined. They re improving every hour to continue their work. Every day's delay means the still further desecration ‘of the field. The government ought to deter- mine at once whether it will or will not act.” ‘And supposing the government cannot act, . what will Pennsylvania do then? Cam it do anything and if it ean why did it not start the machinery long ago? Surely the state has some sort of jurisdiction nos possible to the general government. Surely the state has power to save from disfigurement and desecration the soil on which its sous and their comrades fought bravely to repel invasion. —+ «-___——_ ‘Americans generally are a most practical people. but oceasionally they develop a highly- ereditable varlety of sentiment, apparent just pow because of the to sell Farra- gut’s old flagship, the Hartford. @riginating dowbtless with the oft-repeated departmental Yecommendations a rumor has been in cireule- tion to the effeet that Congress had especially aqxempted the Hartford and the Kearsarge from ‘the destructive provisions of law which ordi- narily apply to all vessels whose repairs would eallfor extraordinarily large appropriations, As ‘a matter of fact these ships—supremely promi- nent in our naval history—are without speci‘ic and the Hartford may. be sold for old jauk whenever the Secretary of the Navy no orders; the Kearsarge ia still in commission fend will probably be in good condition for some years to come. Why would it not be a good and patriotic thing to send the Hartford— Serciy uighied as it in with sacred memorios— to this city and use it as the home of a collee- ‘tion of naval war relies? And when the Keer- sarge is too offi to longer serve as a warship let $8 join the Hartford and be put to a similar uso. —_—_+e+— Are the merchants of this city doing what they cam.to make their clerks comfortable dur- fing the somewhat torrid evenings of this sum- mery period? Several days since Tux Stax gave expression to a hope that employers and ‘eboppers would combine to shorten the hours ‘of labor for » large and estimable class of toilers, and since then the atmospheric temper- ature hag gone up several degrees. But warm as the days and evenings have been throughout this region there were many cooler spots than the stores in which thousands of employes sweltered until dark or thereabouts, Surely ‘there cannot be much shopping done after 6 e’clock at this season. Early closing will not eanse the public any material discomfort, ean- not damage business to any serious extent, and would be an unadulterated blessing to @ great many deserving people. —_— Prophets of evil who continually foresee ‘France and Germany once more at each other's ‘throats must have been very mach disgusted at the cordial manner in which soldierly. rep- resentatives of the two uations conducted them- selves. a few days since, when the bodies of Goersnans who were killed in the Pranco-Prus- sian war and near the town of Stail, in Fi territory, were escorted to their ‘own svil by troops of both countries. . Surely ‘there cannot be unextinguishable international anger when French soldiers render military honors to the remains of those who died that France migh* be defeated. oe ‘Some of the philological experts in weleom- fing the word “‘sizzard”— indicative of extreme heat—baxe dlundered in announcing that the ‘word blizzard first made its appearance in the winter of 1840-81. It may be that “blizzard” ‘was a novelty in the east at that time, but it was in common use throughout Manitoba and the British northwest as far back as the days when that region was known on the maps as Prince Rupert's Land. “Blizzard” attamed its majority long ago. ——_ro— ‘The silver people will doubtless have some difficulty in providing the Sherman law with an ‘understudy. ——__+e+____ Georgia has not registered any complaint that federal patronage puts her in danger of depopulation. —_——_+e2___ Perhaps the Fall River police enjoy a really fine mystery too much to spoil it nee One of the first matters of real importance that will be presented to the next Congress will bea bill, siready framed, providing for the es- tablishment of a National Board of Health, with in this city. The movement is ‘one that interests every resident of this country, and before the session is very old there will be documentary evidence on file to prove that an overwhelming majority of the medical profes- sion favors such legislation. The New York Academy of Medicine has been more active in ‘this matter than any other of the medical so- etaties. but the effects of good example are visi- bie, and ina little while the followers of the heal- ing art will be solidly arrayed in bebalf of a national board of health and its logical Sequence. a national system of quarantine. ‘This means the removal of the prevent crazy- qnilt quarantine from out of the grasp of local politicians and a comprehensive and easily and equably enforced plan of defense against in- vading epidemic. The board, as devised by the projectors, is to co-operate with the state and ammicipal authorities in the matter of sanitary improvement, is to be preaided over by a phy- sician, whose tenure shall on!y be terminated by death, misdemeanor or inefficiency, its exeeu- tive committee will be chosen by the President of the United Stags from the state and terri- torial representatives, and in addition is to have ‘as members the surgeons general of the army, navy and marine hospital service. Tho body of ‘the national board is to consist of a representa- tive of the medical profession of each state and territors, appointed by the President on ac- eoant of his special fatness for the duties of his position and for a term of not lees than six ‘This national board is to mect in this city not oftener than once in two years unless specially'convened in some great emergency. ‘he boldest feature of the proposition, and the ‘ealy one tikely tor: sul’ in serious controversy, is j that which bestows upon the board legislative, judicial and executive powers of am independ- ent character. Of legislative powers the framers say that they “should be vested im the Dody of the board while in seseion and in the executive committee at all times. The legiala- tive acts of both shall require the approval of the President, Ase result of these powers, a national sanitary code should be constructed, and the power conferred upom the executive committee or the bosrd while in session to recommend the amondment or annulment of the code in part or in whole, as the requiremente of the service may demand. In cases of great ‘emergency the President shall be empowered to direct the immediate action, determined on by the executive committee, by the board while in sossion,or by both these bodies, according as he may deem fitting. It should be provided that proper notice of the intention or action of this Doard be given tothose interested whenever cir- cumstancesand the public good willadmitof it.” As to judicial power it is provided that all judi- cia] acta shall have the approval of the Presi- dent In the matter of executive power there is nothing new. The President is always at liberty to use the army and navy and the na- tional guard for the support of Federal law, s0 any further anthorization is unnecessary. There does not seem to be any reason why the machinery of government should be compli- cated to bring about efficient quarantine, Con- gress cam enact all the needed statutes and it cannot be urged that @ medical legislature is essential Strip the plan of its abnormal features and it is » good thing, worthy the sup- port of every citizen. ———— += —___ Millions of people who would really like to attend the World’s Columbian Exposition are waiting for the coming of the day when the railroads will bring their rates down to what may be termed popular prices. That day will not be long delayed. Some little time ago Tux Sram called attention to the probability of speedy reduction and to the profits that would accrue from the increased traffic, and now President Chauncey M. Depew of the New York Central supports the theory by practical statement! which he says that “cheap trains, which up to the present time would have been a failure, will in a few weeks become a neces- sity. ‘Then the railways will meet the popular demand by trains which will conform to popu- lar prices.” Dr. Depew may or may not be authorized to speak for the trunk roads of the United States, but be is unquestionably em- powered to eny what the New York Central will fovand if the Central euts rates the other roads must follow the example. How great the reduetion will be eannot now be foreshadowed, but that it will be sufficiently great to entice an enormous number of people to Chicago who would otherwise remain at home is certain. —__+e=—___ Ohio politicians are people of firm eonvic- tions. The two parties, having set their standards, do not waver. The republicans stand by McKinley and while Ex-Governor Campbell says he will not ran again, he declares that he will be ont on the stump in behalf of the democratic candidate whoever he may be. The campaign thorefore will begin just about where the former one left off. The new install- ‘ment will be looked forward to with interest. —___ +02 -——_ Very ungraciously did Police Justice Tighe release the Norsemen who were so outrageously treated by the Brooklyn police. Decent Brook- Iynites are ashamed of him, and whan he once more bobs up asa candidate will probably re- member his conduct in « substantial and con- vineing way. —_- + + People who fear for the safety of their chil- dren might take steps to introduce the French duel as @ feature of Fourth of July celebra- tions. —___+ ++ -—_—__ ‘The silver question is « topic of sufficient im- portance to justify Congress in getting out an extra Record. —_ +02—___ Reference to Gettysburg as “Trolleyville” is one of the possible horrors of the future. ——__ +2 —_____ The comment on the Borden verdict is unanimous “I told you so.”” —_ + e2—___ ‘There is no greater disturber of the public peace than the amateur prophet. ——— +02 ‘The Panama canal seandal has evidently been studying the farewell engagement idea. ¢ YES IN Lae SHOOTING STARS. The office seeker with a sigh Sought out the man of state; “I came to see,” he said, “if I ‘Cannot reduce my wait” A burning question—was there any insur- ance? AN UXFEELING QUESTION. “How often,” he said” with intense sarcasm, “do you expect to be engaged this summer?” “Oh, dear!” she answered, “don't talk that way; you know I despise arithmetic.”” History does notdistinetly state that George Washington never went fishing, but there is much in his biography to contirm that theory. “This verse,” snid the jocose editor, “looks as if it went by the yard.” “Why,” expostulated the poet, “it is perfect trimeter. “Well.” rejoined the editor, ‘isn't trimeter three feet? And don’t three feet make one yard?” A declaration of independence is a superfiuity so far as the small boy and his Fourth of July rights are concerned. “John,” said Mrs. De Porke, “what do you suppose these high lights that artists talk about are?” “Humph—I suppose they have reference to what it costs for gas to illuminate the picture A PASTORAL. ‘The sky is hot and brassy When we look for azure blue, And the fields that once were grassy Have a blistery, barren bne; And the breeze comes slowly gliding O’er you like a breath of flame, And you pant, too weak for chiding, Since the warm wave came. All the birds have ceased their singing ‘And the languid blossoms droop, ‘And the hens their flight are winging "To the shady chicken coop. And the Hired man isn’t working, ‘Though he’s eating just the same,— But we're all engaged in shirking Since the warm wave came. ‘The peddier and the sheriff ‘Are asleep out in the shed, Sehot they wouldn't care if ‘They were actually dend. There's so little fun in beating No one starts a base ball game, And the pig: have ‘most quit eating ‘Since the warm wave came. A New Interpretation.
