4 THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1893-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. CROSBY S. NOYES.. . Editor. ‘THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation nearly double the combined circulation of the other ‘Washiagton dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- petitor. according to tenor or purpose. Christmas day should bring to those who Tejoice in abundance some thought of the poor. Many such have already responded nobly to the cry of distress. To those, as well, who may not have an abundance, but ‘who have the means to provide for them- selves and their households the necessaries, if not the luxuries, of life, the day should bring some pitying thought for the men and ‘women and children whose chimneys a! smokeless, whose tables are bare, who are hungry and cold. It is not for beggars, or tramps, or constitutional idlers that appeal is made, but for the hundreds of families whose means of living hve been taken from them by the force of hard times, whose little savings have been all doled out, and who in the dead of winter are brought to face starvation—people who in many cases make every shift to conceal their distress. Compared with these, the famflies that think they are sorely tried to make small salaries meet their wants may be said to be in happy circumstances. As a rule those who themselves have been very near grinding poverty, or whose cir- cumstances are such that a period of en- forced idleness, or disabling accident, or a long illness, might bring them and theirs to destitution, are the first to hearken to the cry of the hungering. Their hearts are more easily reached than the hearts of the rich. Maybe it ts because in that wailing cry—in the sob of the mother who huddles her famishing children about her—in the groan of the man who ts powerless to save his wife and babies from starving—there is a familiar note, one which has been struck from the chords of their own hearts at some time when disaster seemed imminent, when the future was dark, and they have almost despaired. That is, after all, the condition of most of mankind,—not far re- moved from poverty. To be deprived of ‘There are many people in Washington who ere both rich and charitable. It is hoped made for the poor will reach and that they will respond with libe- Tal subscriptions to the funds of the citi- relief committee. The Star will be receive and record the subscriptions. the thousands who can give, but cannot give much,the thousands who would cheerfully give a little if they knew just what to do with their dimes, or quarters, The Star comes with an appeal and a plan. It is to make a people’s fund. It would not be “The Star’s” fund, but it might be called The Star’s subscribers’ fund, and that ‘would be synonymous tn the District of Co- lumbia with the people’s fund. The propo- sition The Star has to make is that in every where The Star goes some effort be to raise a small sum of money, a ® quarter, a dollar—there need, of be no limit on the amount. The next three months will be months of hard- ship to the poor. It is hoped that the spring will bring with it better times. But pro- vision must be made for three months. So let the members of each household into which The Star goes decide on the amount i Worth sending to a committee. In the ag- gregate, however, even the smallest con- tributions might make a sum greater than that given by the rich, if the g00d people Washington will take up the suggestion. every one who reads this put his hand pocket this Christmas day, and at in an envelope the amount he will first month. It may be only the @ cigar that will not be_smoked, or ® couple of street car rides that will not taken, but let ft be something, and the act will bring a benediction with it. ga ——>eo__ Today the Santa Claus Club as a char- {table collection agency terminates its ac- folks are substituted for the small contributions are welcomed as well as larger growth wh masquerade as old folks, = —_——__see—_—___. Once more the city saves gas by not lighting the street Jamps at night. The moon is full, and, besides, there is the un- usual light that shines through the win- dows along the streets from the Christmas tree candles. Every little counts, and by rigid economy enough funds may be accu- mulated for some other luxury like the Lydecker tunnel. —_roo___ The goose that raised the mendactous speckled breast bone is one of the few members of society who will not come in for holiday felicitations, —_—roo___ If the prevailing weather is to be re- peated from year to year, the river excur- sion may come to be a valued feature of Christmas celebration. ———++2-—____ ‘The comparatively few Washingtonians who are interested in establishing a winter- racing outfit at the national capital must have a low estimate of public intelligence if they think that opposition to Philanthro- pist Engeman’s efforts has its origin in sentiment that is averse to horse racing of all sorts. Conducted on a high plane and managed by men who are at least as anx- lous to improve horseflesh as they are to make money, the sport is not objectionable to @ considerable proportion of any com- munity, but when racing is run purely in the interest of gambling of the most vicious and contaminating type decent men and women can do nothing else than condemn it. The New York Herald cannot be ac- cused of opposition to honest horse racing, yet its sporting editor says in today’s pa- ber that “the aquabble about the Ivy City im which the last Clifton meeting was run interest in such management could only be confined to a very cramped and narrow eircle. News came in last night that all disputes and wranglings had been amica- bly arranged and the Engeman Would be in full blast azain tomorrow. This may be of moment to a few who cannot @fford to be idle—from a bl view—but to the large maj it is probably immaterial wheth City track is consumed tion or blown into eternity “The last Clifton me * refe managed by the same philanthr¢ Eng. Fav venture | mae whose scheme it is to add to this city’s population thousands of the most undesira- ble sort of residents. The Star has never given utterance to even an intimatory ob- jection to legitimate horse racing, but it does protest against the planting and growth here of what must always be fruit- ful of iniquity and scandal. Warm friends and close personal associates of those who prey upon society through the pool rooms abuse District Attorney Birney because he has seen fit to conduct his business as pros- ecuting officer in his own way. The criti- cisms are unjust and unworthy of consid- eration. The district attorney stands on unassailable ground when he refuses to dicker with those who contemplate an out- rage on all that is honest and respectable. If Mr. Birney should consent to such a test , | case as Engeman wants, the Ivy City meet- ing, with all its perniciousness, would gO right along, and that is something the city of Washington does not want and will not have if the law is as comprehensive and as sound as it seems to be. Mr. Engeman an- nounces racing for tomorrow. An ample force of police will raid the track and ar- rest bookmakers and those who patronize them. Should there be necessity for further arrests—either later in the day or on some subsequent day—they will be made. That is the district attorney's program, and it has the unstinted approbation of reputable Washington. Merry Christmas! And merry it is for those who have the wherewithal to make it merry. And they are many in this goodly and prosperous land of ours, notwithstand- ing the times are hard and those who have today may have not tomorrow, for the country is far from bankrupt and money is just as plenty as it ever was, if one can only shake it out of its hiding place and let it jingle along the highways of trade. Santa Claus drives a team of reindeer | and a sleigh, and all of us know that it costs money to go sleighing, hence with- out money Santa can’t get out in his rig, | so if he gets out at all he is necessarily | slow about it and can’t get around to a great many people who are well deserving and would, no doubt, thoroughly appreciate a visit. People who say Santa Claus is a} Mammon worshipper, certainly don't know what they are talking about, or are malic- fously libelous. Santa Claus wants to come to all, but how can he when he can’t? Don't you cavilers blame Santa; put your hands down in your pockets and pull out the price of a sleigh ride and send him with all his bells a-jingle to the homes of the poor and the suffering, to the pinched- faced, frozen-toed little ones, shivering in front of brightly lighted windows whence odors of Christmas eating come, and where Joyful toys and Christmas trees make their eyes sparkle and their hearts sad because they are not for them; lead him to the sick and the desolate,who have almost forgotten Christmas and the simple and beautiful story of its beginning; send him to the weak and the helpless; send him always to the children, for in the the hearts of the children lives ever new the old, old story, and in them we, who have grown hard and cold and material, find at least once a year a warming touch; send him then, you who have the price of a sleigh ride, and see if the little ones to whom he goes with 1 his jolly fat smile and his arms full ot | goodies, will say that Santa Claus is even | lower than the angels. ——_—__ + ______ According to Marryat the eastern pasha was an official whose head was slightly ele- vated above those of the unofficial crowd in order that it might more easily be de- capitated.
