4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. ©, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 5. 1893. _THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘TUESDAY. September 5, 1893. (CROSBY 8. NOYES... TRE EVENING STAR has a regular an¢ the city. As a local NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Mediamit has no competiter. It would seem as though the government of the United States ought to have had sufficient experience with miscalled “econ omy” in connection with the Old Ford’ ‘Theater building, and yet the Senate has appropriated the sum of $,000 with which it is proposed to repair and make habitable that structure, of which now but little more than the walis remain standing. For some purposes %,000 would be ample, but the idea that it is sufficient to erect an of- fice building 1s so absurd that serious com- ment is almost impossible. The rear wall has not been safe at any time during the past twenty years, and that it ts danger- ously out of plumb now can be seen by even the inexpert. The other walls must have suffered from the shock caused by the breaking and falling of the floors—and suffered to such an extent that their use is, if safety ts being sought after, entirely out of the question. Several suggestions have been made as to uses to which the site of two horrible disasters may be put. One proposition called for the removal of the walls and debris and the making of an ornamental parking in the middle of which should be some suitable memorial of the great President whose days were there cut short by the assassin’s bullet. Another idea—and very much the better one—was the razing of the old structure and the building in its place of suitable shelter for the free publfe library which this city must sooner or later possess, and which, should it be so located, would doubtless be called the Lincoln Library. Either of these two plans would be much better than that which looks to reoccupation as an office building, but if Congress insists upon hous- ing clerks in the place where so many ill- fated government employes were murdered by foolish thrift {t should at least appro- priate money sufficient to do the work properly. A six-thousand-dollar appropzia- tion is simply nonsensical. _— ‘There ts nothing sectional In the revival of business, now thoroughly under way. Every department of the great Carnegie steel plant at Homestead started yester- day, giving employment to more than two thousand men, and within three or four days fully five hundred others will find the work they bave been seeking in the big mills. At Braddock nearly a thousand wire workers resumed labor at the old and satisfactory scale of prices, and in Pitts- burg the Oliver Iron and Steel Company started all its furnaces gotng. The River- side Knitting Mills at Little Falls, N. ¥., are again turning out their product, while the Valley Falls Mill at Providence and the big rolling mill in the same place are again doing business just as though there had been no interruption. Other mills in Rhode Island are either starting today or will awaken during the present week. Down in Petersburg. Va, where the cotton mills have been idle for many weeks, there is once more profitable activity, and from a number of wester:f business centers comes testimony to an improved and rapidly tm- proving condition of affairs. Collections are much easier, and there is a satisfactory in- flux of orders. In every direction the finan- cial sky 1s clearing. Soon :here will be sun- shine everywhere, and the country will wonder why there ever was anything ap- proaching to @ panic in the summer of ak +e ——___ Organized labor was on exhibition yester- @ay in many cities, and in no place was there anything approaching to even bols- terous conduct. The anarchistic element that of late has succeeded In e‘fecting an entrance into many of the unions and as- semblies was either entirely absent or was compelled to good behavior. The American flag was conspicuous fn every parade and in spite of the fact that many of the trades have suffered by reason of business depres- sion, most of the men who marched were well clad and presented tndubitable evi- dence of satisfied appetite. Selfish agitators have been declaring for some time that organized labor was in a state of thorough and in many places dangerous discontent. ‘The fact that yesterday's celebrations, the country over, were as uneventful as so many Sunday-school picnics is proof of the lack of veracity common to those disturb- ers who are without the support of any moral principle. ee From the south, and especially from that portion of it in the vicinity of Charleston and Savannah, comes a cry for help. The hurricane which caused so much damage in the cities named and almost depopulated many of the smaller islands just off shore did an enormous amount of harm, wiping away in a minute the accumulation of years. Within easy reach of Charfeston there are not less than seven or eight thou- sand people who have little or nothing to eat, and at the same time are insufficiently clad. They need help and they need it now. Western cities have already made contribu- tion, Kansas City, Mo., sending a car load of clothing as a first installment. The ex- ample is 2 good one. ss ‘There is nothing unreasonable in the en- deavors now being made by President Ran- kin of Howard University to secure from Congress an additional appropriation for the erection of a much-needed building in connection with the institution over which he presides. From the day when it first commenced to be a center of knowledge down to the present time, Howard Univer- sity has done nothing but good, and that continually. It is deserving of support much more liberal than any yet given it; a small investment there produces great re- sults. —_+ ++] M. Bartholdi’s idea that the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor should be gilded will probably raise another of those awful wind-storms for which Kansas « Colorado are becoming celebrated. ance of and action upon the proposition be pointed to as base cowardice and ad- itional evidence of the subserviency of the gold-enslaved East to the robber-finan- clers of Europe.

The fender that kills is neither decorative nor useful. By marvelous good fortune years have elapsed since there was last an accident in this city due to a de- fective brake, but continuous immunity is not probable. In very many towns the law provides that each car shail be equipped with an auxiliary brake, the mechanism of which—powerful and equal to almost any emergency—is entirely distinct from that of the brake ordinarily used. If the lessons taught here and elsewhere fail to impress us then we are less sensitive as to the value of human life than any in- telligent people should be. ———_ +++ ____ A New York cigar dealer says that the Police are persecuting him because he re- fuses to give them cigars for nothing. That city seems to be in need of some system that will protect the public from the po- lice. —_—__+ ++ ___ The orderliness and patriotism shown in the labor parades in New York ts one of the best assurances that the country could have against anarchy demonstrations. The contrast was a strong one and most pleas- ing. ——_+++___ The German Emperor is said to pay an enormous salary to his cook; and a man with that functionary’s responsibilities as to dyspepsia should surely command liberal compensation. . ————_~+ ++ —___ It is said that Mr. Ingalls ts desirous of returning to the United States Senate.

From the St. Paul Pioneer Press. “The crisis is over and you will witness an unparalleled recovery,” is the cheerful comment of Controller Eckels upon the present situation. From all parts of the country come pleasant greetings of similar import. In St. Paul business in some lines is rapidly picking up. It is so with the job- bers. Some of the closed factories are pre- paring to start up again. The proprietor of a big one which was shut down two months ago was in a joyous mood yester- day. For his collections, which had sunk to almost nothing, were pouring in in a large and rapidly increasing volume, and, what was quite as gratifying, so also were the orders for his goods. This is a very large straw in the direction of the gather- ing breeze of prosperity. An Omission. From the Kansas City Star. Senator Peffer has introduced to the kindly —or unkinily rather—consideration of Con- gress a bill to give to each state enough paper money to permit each inhabitant to have $8). He, however, makes a fatal mis- take in not providing for its free distri- bution. ——_++e—___ A Question of Pull. From the St. Louis Republic.
