As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- petitor. &7Ie order to oid a ier count of beence, letters to THE STAR should shoald not be addressed to fice. but simpl: the Editorial or BR siness Department, mecording to tenor or purpose. ‘The opposition yesterday to the immediate appropriation of $43,000 for street improve- hands, carried it to his the hearth before the blazing fire. and children gathered piteously stranger. They watched it slowly revive in | the genial warmth. They saw it move and turn and fold and twine till, fully coiled, it sprang with poisoned fangs upon the throat of the husbandman, who fell down dead and swollen. Stunned with the sudden horror of the scene, the survivors looked eagerly about them to descry the author of this fatal mischief.

THE “DRY GOODS ECONOMIST’ OF THIS WEEK GIVES THE FOLLOWING GOOD ADVICE TO SALEXPEOPLE WHICH MAY ALSO Lucky the opportun- ity is still within reach. Bon Marche.: Propriation. The appropriations committee | ™vsically and soothingly on the ear than reports that it is in amount and cbjects a proper municipal expenditure, which in reg- ular course would be made next summer. There is nothing of charity in the appropria- tion itself. To make the money available now will incidentally relieve many destitute . families by giving work to some of the un- employed, but this fact ought not to be a fatal objection to the proposal, even in the view of the coldest blooded economist, since the expenditure of the same amount of Money now,when there is desperate need,will ‘unquestionably secure more grading for the District than its outlay next summer, when excessive destitution will not cheapen the labor market. The project ought to com- mend itself to all philanthropists, including that calculating class which delights to do charity and make money by the same busi- ness stroke. Mr. Kilgore also objected to it as propos- ing a method of appropriation in respect to suburban streets in violation of an alleged general policy in respect to such streets adopted by the last Congress. If Mr. Kil- gore will carefully read the law to which he refers he will quickly perceive that no gen- eral policy is adopted and announced, but merely a method of apportioning the ex- penses of creating and improving streets that are laid out “under the provisions of this act.” There are a great many new reg- ulations governing the streets to be created under this act, which, non-existent now, are at some time to extend clear to the District line; and it is illogical and unreasonable to Pick out one of the provisions affecting such streets and to deciare that it, unlike the other provisions, is of general suburban ap- plication, in spite of the fact that the ex- press words of the statute confine it to the ease of streets created under this law. It will be a long time before suburban im- provements can be conducted under this law; and if no such improvements can be made except under its provisions, there is a present denial to a tax-paying portion of the District of the local expenditure on high- ways of any part of its tax contribution But no intelligent man will contend, after reading the act of 18%, that it applies in any way to streets created before its en- actment, or to any streets which are not created in pursuance of the operations of the elaborate and ponderous machinery which it provides. Mr. Funk indicated that Bloomington, I., had the same right to ask the anticipation of a national expenditure in that city that Washington had to make this request. The difference in the two cases is that Wash- ington comes to the House as its common council, not as the national legislature. If Bloomington has followed the example of cities all over the country, it has already, through its aldermen and common councils, anticipated some municipal expenditure of next summer to give work, as a substitute for charity, to its unemployed. Congress is the only board of aldermen and common} councils that Washington has. It is the enly body which can legislate for the city or appropriate for any purpose a dollar of the tax-money contributed by citizens. ‘There is nothing novel in this request made by the capital of its local legislature. A week ago The Star called attention to the fact that im Baltimore. the authorities have helped the work of relief by opening a stone-breaking yard. In Boston plans have been approved for pushing municipal works. The Cincinnati authorities have hastened the appropriation of $30,000 for use in the parks, and the ‘park commissioners have given employment, for the most part, only to those who were recommended by the citi- zens’ committee. In Chicago extra work 1s being provided by the street cleaning bu- reaus, and the municipal government has made provision for employing men at $1 per day on the draina~> works and in the parks. In order to meet ine emergency in St. Paul, public money has been appropriated to the work of grading streets and improving} parks, and employment under this appro- priation is regulated by the citizens’ com- mittee,the purpose being to make the money 0 as far as possible toward preventing des- titution. In Pittsburg the department of public works has made provision for em- ploying hundreds of men on the unimproved, parks of the city, simply anticipating ex- penditures which would be demanded in the rear future. It is mortifying and annoying for the peo- ple of the capital to be compelled to ex- plain and apologize to their high and mighty common council every time the occasion arises to ask this body to perform its con- stitutional functions as such common coun- cil. It is the fault of the constitution and | not of the District that the capital is forced ! to bring its municipal concerns to the at-| tention of Congress as its local legislature, | and a failure to recognize practically this | relation between the nation and capital, | involves a breach of constitutional obiiga- tions on the part of the negligent Congress- men. The people of Washington are asking no help of the nation in taking care of their poor. The tax payers of the city have raised and are raising thousands of dollars | for charitable relief, and they are feeding | and warming the thousands of improvident ones whom the nation brought here and left stranded and helpless after the ee) Not only are they directly relieving the destitute: who are unable to work, but as | individuals, in every way that they Dos- | sibly can, they are making: work for unemployed. Supplementing they have applied council, just as dozens of cities ali over } the country have done, to antécipate some | municipal improvements, which will give | immediate cheaply-paid employment, not | requiring skill, to hundreds cf self-respect-j ing men, who shrink from charity, but wil! | gladly work. | It ts in the power of a single member of ! this city's congressional common council to defeat any desire on the counctl’s part to be as intelligent and efficient a legis- lative body for Washington in the present emergency, as the common councils of | Pittsburg, Cincinnati, St. Paul and other cities have been, in dealing with precisely | the same question.

They take the mind away from the cares of busi- | ness for a moment and awaken memories of things that are fresh and beautiful in sylvan life.

The American peopie! almost in a body have revolted from the! policy of destroying an American colony and restoring a barbarous, pro-English queen, but they have been much divided upon the question of the wisdom and expe- diency of annexing the islands. The reac- tion from the un-American, pro-English | policy of the administration has swept the | republic far nearer to a willingness to an- nex than has ever before been attained; and a little English bullying and a few English threats such as those conveyed in the above-quoted editorial may make an- nexation a certainty. oe It has been officially announced that one or two of our gunboats must be cut in two and lengthened to cure instability.
