Letters to THE STAR should be s6 Bddressed, or to the Editorial or Basi- Meas Department, according ete eharacter or purpose, not to any indi- qwidual connected with the office. SS From those who are most sincereiy inter- Bsted in the mental welfare of the genera- tion which will soon be a power in the Dis- ‘trict of Columbia comes a plea for library {facilities for our school children, a cry that should not be lost in thin air, an appeal to which Congress should listen attentively. Buperintendent Powel', one of the most suc- Sessful of educators, said in The Star a few days ago that a library was much needed, and it ts not likely that his conclusions will be serfously controverted. The influence of Uiterature upon young minds is potent be- yond description, and it is the plain duty ef that body on whose shoulders rests edu- ational responsibility—the Congress of the Wnited States—to provide a sufficiency of sound reading matter for their charges. What this shall be done narrowly i# not de- sirable. There are children of a larger growth who would be better citizens were ‘they privileged to enjoy constant associa- tion with the best products of the best authors. Few communities of any import- lance in this land are without the beneficial Presence of a free library, but this city— the capital of the nation—lags with the ignorant minority. To be sure, we have the Congressional Library, but that is not available for general use; is of no value to the man or woman who tolls all the day fong. What is needed is an institution ‘which sha'l be open all day and part of Bhe night, which shall be a model circu- jating Mbrary and which shall supply the People, workingmen and school children, as weil as scholars and men of leisure, with m= Hbera! sufficiency of high-grade ltera- ture. The books are avaliable without any @dditional expenditure in the unused dupli- fates which cumber the shelves of the Con- gressional Library, and which Librarian Bpofford says can be readily spared. If Congress should make of the institution a departmental Ifbrary, as a substi- tute for those that are now distributed among certain of the departments and bu- Feaux, the move would be absolutely in the line of increased economy and efficiency, avoiding the expensive duplication of deoks, library rooms and attendants that by Congress, and in a separate struct- built on the site of Ford's Thea- housing a “Lincoln Library.” The peo- who need this library are not exacting to the place where it shal! be will gratefully assent to the ¥ decision on this point which may make. But Congress ought ——- wee --—__ self-respecting repealer and no repealer ‘who hopes to retain the respect of the peo- le can afford to assent to a comp! ‘which fafls to put an immediate stop to the Bilver purchases. The people have been told ‘nd have come to believe that these pur- chase have been largely responsible for the rain of gold from the treasury, for the financial stringency and for the prevailing Jack of confidence. They believe that the cessation of these purchases will put a stop to this drain and this stringency and will ‘the existence of this belief onthe ‘the people and are ready to of} th pupie demand based upon this belief. Unless the administration, meaning thereby the legis- lative as well as executive controlling polit- teal force, causes these purchases to cease, permanently or temporarily, it will be justly accused of a shameful trifling with the Public interests. The representations on the Subject of the effects of the silver purchases, 4f they are believed after they have been Giseredited In this manner by those who ‘uttered them, will, if the remedy Is not ap- plied, aggravate the panicky and stringency- producing conditions which it is desired to eliminate. Or, if they are no longer believed and are treated by the people as false pre- tences, made with political motives, then the public will rush to some other explanation of the ganic, as for instance, the unsettling threat of sweeping changes in the tariff, and for this element of disturbance the party in power will,be held directly and exclusively Fesponsible. A compromise, which would put a stop to the silver parchases for sev- eral years, coining in the meanwhile the bullion which the government already owns, Would not be a surrender of principle, or a Tepudiation of the representations that have bee made, or a betrayal of the publfe con‘i- dence. But a comprimis: which merely reduces the amount of current silver pur- chases and enables the republic by a bond issue to borrow the gold to meet the drain, majority of the Senate recognizé tHY fact of ‘part.of 1s not a compromise at all, but an uncondi-| tiopal surrender on the part of the repealers ‘of every principle for which they have con- ‘ynded. —— Business men are everywhere making herculean efforts to bring about an im- proved condition of affairs in the financial world, and a!though the Senate's inactivity 4s an overburdensome incubus there are signs of revival. One of the best of these is seen im the increased reserve funds held by banks In some of the more important cities. The hichest percentage in the state- ment published Friday 1s to the eredit of this community, but in all the cities named at that time there was considerable in- erease in the amount of the reserve over that held by the banks tn July last. It ts hard and uphill work for manufacturers and their dependents to revive commerce im the face of senatorial opposition, but it may, perhaps, be accomplished to an ex- tent which will put sufficient money in ctr- ealation to avert much of the suffering now promised for those who, unempfoyed, must struggle for existence during the coming winter. ee --—— Mr. Bourke Cockran appears to have failed to profit by the example of the ““Pina- fore” politician who “never thought of thinking for himeeif at all.” —_—__ +e<— talks, but in the case of Mr. Van ars to be positively garrulous. —__ 02 ‘The Senatorial toga no longer has to do Service as a robe de nutt. —_—+ ee Many of the spectators whose eyes are turned toward Prazil seem to be satis- fied that some of the Huropean nations whose ships of war now lie a. anchor in the harbor of Rio de Janefro will ccept the first opportunity to seize the city and as- sume control of the realm in which the theories of republicanism still cireulate. ‘That conclusion as to interference fs not unreasonably founded, and yet {ct seems strange that ch actin should even be contemplated in the free cf the oft-repeated declarations by those who thorcughly rep- Fesent the sentime of the United States. It is gossiped abroad that some of the heirs of the late Emperor Dom Pedro are on thetr way to Prazil, and will. at what they deem to be the proper period, endeavor to Fe-erect th throne and perch thereon . by the nearness of his kin- o deceased royalty, has the best claim to being one of “the Lori's anointed.” That fa @ not improbable prog » but it prom- ises to be difficult of execution. While Brazii was a monarchy there was much More Alen it good feeling between its rulers and the great republic, but there was, nevertheless, rejoicing when the last sceptre south of us became an inconsequential bauble. An ef- fort from the outside to destroy the re- publican form of government that succeed- ed the imperiai method could not but stir up strife, and would be resented by every republic in the new world. No reasonable being can, or will, object to the presence in the Brazilian waters of ships whose duty it may be to protect the interests of resi- dents whose nationality they represent, but there must be no semblance of invasion nor threatenings as to what may happen if Peace is not soon concluded on terms dic- tated by foreign governments. Behind the Janguage in which the Monroe doctrine is set forth there is the determination of a Power whose forcefuiness has never yet been tried to the utmost. Europe may war within itself for years and we will do no more than supply the combatants with food, but if there should be European effort to re- establish monerchical instftutions on this eentinent, diplomacy may have mote of a task than it can master. —_- + +e It fs to be hoped that the owners of the victorious Vigtiant will not be content with the victories their Mberal expenditure of cash made possible. Theit boat is un- doubtedly more speedy than any other that floats on the surface of the great deep, but @ few of the critics insist, possibly with reason, that the cutter can invariably beat | the centerboard in British waters. Such a contention is hard to understand. It 1s true that tides vary and that currents fre- quently puzzle the uninformed, but the At- lantic is as buoyant in the Solent as it is off the Jersey coast and the winds that biow in both regions have at least a family resemblance. Beyond all cavil {t has been shown that American construction and American seamanship are stfperior to those yet produced beneath the flag “that braved @ thousand years the battle and the breeze," and it is rather annoying to be told that j this superiority would not exist were the contests to take place in British waters. Send the Vigilant across the ocean next year. Let her seaworthiness be abundantly demonstrated. Match her against the best that British ingenuity can launch and equip and man. Establish incontestibly the reign of the centerboard and compel acknowledg- ment from the sturdy conservatism of a people that has never yet been willing to admit that it was wholly in error. + + In the matter of enterprise the Congres- sional Record is hardly up to its brethren in the ranks of modern journalism. Per- haps its mysterious editor has pecuilar views of the precise quality of the term “news.” At all events, he had only caught | up to date with his issue of Sunday, which, by the way, appeared this morning, and in that the record of things legistative is com- pleted. It took three issues of this curious publication -to set forth fully the facts de- veloped by the legistative day of Wednes- day, October 11, and two days to tell the story of the 13th. Yesterday's Record con- tained the last installment of Friday's pages and all of Saturday's. Indeed, the issues of the past week have read most startlingly like those of “The Messenger Boys’ Own" or “The Servant Girls’ Ro- mancer,” for the thread of the story was often snapped in the midst of a heartrend- ing situation. This “continued in our next” habit is apt to become pernicious if hu- moted and encouraged. —— +42 -___ It is hoped that the Senate will Improve the opportunity which presents itself to collect its thoughts.
