As a News and Advertising Medium it has mo competitor. t7 Letters to THE STAR should be so addressed, or to the Editortal ness. Department, accord! character or purpose, not to vidual connected with the office. At the approaching session of Congress the effort will be renewed to secure the ereation of a free public circulating library and reading rooms for the city of Wash- ington. The obstacle to success in the past has not been lack of books, but lack of Place in which to put the books. A habita- tion for the library is the need, not the li- brary itself. Out of the 300,000 volumes in the departmental libraries, there are be- tween 20,000 and 20,00) which are not tech- mical or reference works, adapted exclu- sively for the use of the department offi- ¢lals, but are suitable only for a popular circulating library, and are put by the clerks to this use. Librarian Spofford says that there are thousands of duplicate copyright books in the library of Congress which are available for the purpose of a circulating library of the kind described. Either of these sources would supply a good nucleus for Washington's public library. Combine them and an extensive and valua- bie collection at once springs into being. But having secured the books, the problem is where to house them. A Senate discus- sion developed the fact that the city of Washington is supposed to have the use of its so-called City Post Office building only so far as the ground floor is concerned, and that promises had been made which devoted to the uses of government bureaus all the other available space on the eight floors of the new building. Of course the Matural procedure would be to. put Wash- ngton’s post office, Washington's municipal government and Washington's public li- brary in the same building, grouping as far as possible all the local institutions under one roof. But assuming that it may be de- cided that one-eighth of the available space of Washington's post office building is enough for Washington, and that the other seven-eighths wil be used by Uncle Sam for his own purposes, the question will then arise, what place is attainable for the public library? The people of Washington want a library and are not particular about its location. The approaching completion of the new building of the great library of Congress suggests the possibility that a corner may be found there for Washing- ton’s library. The present library of Con- gress contains 68,000 books, and 240,000 pam- phiets. The new building, when completed, will furnish room for 4,500,000 books and un- Emited room for pamphlets, so that there is @ considerable margin of space available on which to figure. The great body of books in the lib:ary of Congress are, of course, of a character to be studied by stu- dents with leisure, and cannot well be taken from the building. But there is space in the new structure for two distinct Mbraries under different regulations and with varying purposes. Thousands of vol- umes of the present collection which have been standing on the floor in heaps unacces- sible for lack of shelf room are now to be made.available. Why not go a step far- ther and make such of the works as are Suitable available at home as well as in the library itself and available during hours which will not prohibit the working- men and the school or college youth from the easy enjoyment of these literary treas- ures? It would seem that the Washington Library could be created as intended, and be given space in the new building without disturbing in any way the national library proper. With development of thé People’s Library, branches might be established in @ifferent parts of the city to facilitate the operation of its circulating feature, the building on Capitol Hill serving as the cen- tral supply station. There are a million and a quarter of books in Washington, one-twentieth of the whole of the literary treasures of the United States. But they are practically ac- cessible only to a small fraction of the city’s Population. We have here no adequate public circulating library and reading rooms, such as very many European cities and villages, nearly every little New Eng- land village, and many American cities en- joy. Washington's condition is like the for- mer state of its Scotch neighbor, of which it was said: “Edinburgh without a free brary of the kind was like a man starving in the midst of a granary.” Surely the capital's literary famine will be relieved by the coming Congress. If the kind of relief Suggested is not acceptable, some other should be devised. But the discreditable condition pointed out should no longer be permitted to exist. ——~+eo—_____ Some time it is hoped a method of as- sessing property will be hit upon that will accomplish all the purpeses for which as- sessments are made, reduce to a minumum the probability of error, increase the facili- ties for correcting errors when made, and thus largely contribute to the peace of mind of the taxpayer as well as the off- clals charged with Keeping the tax ac- counts. If the assessor's recommendation that a new assessment be made is approved by Congress, would it not be well in framing the new asscssment bill to thor- @ughly consider whether there should not be a complete reconstruction of the methods of making the assessment? The plan of having a permanent board of assessors, empowered at any time, when good cause was shown, to revise assessments, was favored by many when the last assess- ment bill was before Congress, and experi- ence has shown that such a provision might have been wise. At any rate, if a new as- sessment is ordered, the legislation should be framed to provide every possible pre- caution against a repetition of such ex- periences as the District has suffered under recent assessments. —_—_--o____ ‘The tempter is generally regarded asa Jess estimable character than the tempted, while the receiver has always been looked upon as worse than the thief, but in West Virginia there is a hole in the law which makes it legitimate to offer a bribe to an oficia] and holds the briber guiltless should his proffer be accepted. Of course it is entirely proper to punish the public officer or the witness or juror who takes a bribe, and the punishment ought to be most severe, but the statute should bear as heavily upon the person who puts temptation in the way of sinners. Law is frequently much less than equitable. ——__ 2 _____ In spite of the Hawaiian monarchy’s need of funds, there is not even enough sympa- thy for it in this country to secure it a tes- timonial cake walk. ———~-+e—____. The flowers of spring were never as wel- come as the frost of autumn is in stricken Brunswick, Ga. . —+ ee —_____ There are many officers in the United States navy who are competent to watch over~merican interests in Hawaif, even when the conditions are as much disturbed as they now are, and the fact that so many capable men are avaliable makes curious folk wonder why President Cleveland should have ordered Admiral Irwin to command the forces at Honolulu. Admiral Skerrer', who was relievell, might have remained on duty at a post with the pecullarities of which he was thoroughly familiar; but Mizister Paramount Blount had evidently reporte: against him, so he was secretly displaced Strangely enough, his successor, admira Irwin, who is rT orders to co-operat: with Minister W2lis in the Tecgronation o Liluokalans, turns out to be % brother o Robert Irwin, Liliuokalani’s confidentia agent in the important matser of promoting coolie migration from Japan to Hawail. Of course, it does not necessarily fcllow that Admiral Irwin and his brother Robert are of one mind as to the coolie business, nor may it be inferred that the admiral would sympathize with the putrid monarchy with- out which the coolle trade could not prosper, but the coincidences are extraordinary to say the least. Should the so-called “queen” be successfully restored to her throne by the force which Admiral Irwin commands, then Mr. Robert Irwin would continue to hold down a very lucrative job. Should the pro- visional government be victorious, then Mr. Robert Irwin will be without occupation, so far as the buying and selling of coolies for Hawaiian use is concerned. Admiral irwin is situated most unfortunately. His duty to the government and to his brother demands action that must assault his self-respect and he will doubtless be far from thanxful to the administration that put him in an intolerable and indefensible position. —_—__ 2 0 A synonym for financial solidtty and hon- esty of the most scrupulous sort is “The Bank of England.” For nearly’ two hun- dred years it has been the greatest banking institution in the world and still occupies that pre-eminent station, but public confi- dence in it has received @ shock. It ap- pears that the chief cashier of the bank, whose business it had been for twenty years to invest the bank’s loan capital, was guilty of exercising defective judgment, which, in the eyes of the bank directors, is nothing less than @ crime. Just how much money has been lost by the bank through the alleged fault of a trusted official is not known to the public, but it is certain that the hitherto blind belief of England in the impregnability of the institution popularly known as “The Old Lady of Threadneedle Street” no longer exists. The money lost is of no consequence, but the blow to the in- stitution’s financial prestige is serious in these trouDled and suspicious times. ee With a considerable proportion of its Population enthusiagtic bicycle riders it is not entirely strange that Washington should be afflicted with a class of thieves who seem to devote themselves almost exclusive- ly to the frequent acquisition of unwatched wheels. These disreputable characters are aided and encouraged very materially by citizens who would resent any imputation that seemed to affect their reputation for honesty. Any sensible man surely must know that a bicycle which ordinarily sells for at least $100 would not be disposed of by a legitimate owner for four or five dollars, yet it frequently happens that stolen wheels are purchased for almost nothing by people who are satisfied that nothing would tempt them to do wrong, ————r+e—____ if Liluokalani is a thrifty woman, she had little difficulty in making up her mind what to do with the Hawaiian throne when it was restored to her. Her course was clear. The only business-like move under the circumstances was to take it to some dealer in second-hand thrones, or if none exist in the Sandwich Islands, to an ordin- ary junk shop, and let the proprietor have it at his own figure. It has been for a long time one of the most shabby and dilapidat- ed pieces of political furniture on record, and thrones are going out of fashion, any- how. —_——_+ += _____ The time for a full moon approaches, and the city will once more proceed to save gas. It seems hardly considerate of the authori- ties to require that industrious member of Society, Jack the Slasher, to make his way about town with such an uncertain light. e+ —___ If the new tariff could include a prohibi- tive measure with reference to raw ma- terial for anarchy, a good many defects in other directions might be excused. ———++-____ A young woman has succeeded in beating her way from Chicago to New York. This adds the “lady tramp” to the list. ero. The trouble with some of this country’s young literary men is that they are so much more young than literary.

Liliuokalani had been moody. “I don't care!” she exclaimed after a leng silence. “It's real mean.” “What is real mean, your majesty?” “For them to linger along this way about my deposition.” “About which, your majesty?" “About grabbing onto my throne.
