“£ THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY... .......-...January 19, 1894. CS SS TES we REMASTER NO ST I ‘Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- Hl , - arte ene eee Coen Aer §7lm order to avoid delays, on ac- it of personal absence, letters to STAR should not be addressed any individual connected with the o ce, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Department, to tenor or purpese. People who look leniently or carelessly at efforts overhead-trolley combina- tion, now preparing to make another ener- attempt to cumber this city’s streets ‘with unsightly poles and dangerous and ob- structive wires, should read carefully and @igest deliberately the interview with Mr. John P- Barrett, published in yesterday's Star. Mr. Barrett is an expert of the dis- interested sort who serves Chicago as city electrician, and whose attainments resulted fm his being given complete charge of all electrical exhibits at the World’s Columbian Exposition. Better authority than he could mot easily be found, and Washingtonians mvho have opposed and will continue to op- ose the overhead trolley must be gratified @t his approbation of their contention. With- out the least hesitancy Mr. Barrett declares that the greatest danger which now menaces @ city is the overhead wire—a conclusion reached after many years of the most prac- tical sort of experience. Mr. Barrett came to Washington to secure additional facts for use in an argument he proposes to make against the granting of overhead-trolley privileges in the business center of Chicago. Most of the needed facts were secured dur- ing the course of an investigation made by him into the workings of the underground- trolley system now being operated on U street. Mr. Barrett is satisfied that there is mo longer any electrical problem connected ‘with the successful use of electricity as a motive power through underground wires; 4m fact, the underground wire is capable of ‘better work than the overhead article. Declaring himself to be in every respect Satisfied with the U street road, Mr. Barrett returns to Chicago to advise the city council to deny construction privileges to any cor- poration that wants to move its cars by the unsightly and primitive method commonly known as the trolley system. — —- +02 It is natural to expect that after the rather long period of depression through which this city has passed in common with the entire country that a revival is near at hand, especially as the causes which are’ \elieved to have brought about the condi- don of affairs either have or will soon largely disappear. In this city the lookout seems to be encouraging, and there are a good many citizens who see all the indica- tions of better times in the immediate future. One promising condition is the abundance of money in the banks and in trust companies that is awaiting some form of profitable use, opportunities for which are already appearing. It is also| recognized that confidence in the advan- tages of Washington as a place for invest- ment remains undiminished. It seems to be a reasonable conclusion from these premises that there is to be renewal of activity in improvements of various kinds which will affect favorably all branches of business in this city and stimulate fur- ther the incoming of outside capital. With the view of encouraging by active co-opera- tion an early start in this direction the | Builders’ Exchange took the step, upon which The Star has already commented, | of deciding to call a conference of all classes | engaged in the building business in this} city to fix upon a scale of prices or rather @ percentage of reduction in prevailing prices for material and labor, so that all who have money will be encouraged by such inducements to go ahead and invest. ——— Senato> Voorhees is quoted as saying that hhe would not vote to increase the internal Tevenue tax on beer because beer is one of the few luxuries the poor man enjoys. What remark, in these days when all of the political parties are overexerting them- séives to care for the toiling millions, would @eem to be entirely proper and in close ac- eord with the best thought of this unselfish era, yet it is certainly based upon what may be termed a misapprehension. Beer is mow taxed one dollar per barrel and the re- sult figures up about thirty-two millions of the most easily collected income the gov- ernment has. An additional dollar levied on each barrel would make no change either in the price or in the quantity of “the poor man’s beer,” and yet it would add $52,000,000 to the nation’s assets every year. If the additional tax was figured out for each glass of beer consumed the in- ereased cost would be less than one-fifth of ® cent—not enough, as The Star has before insisted, to cause the poor man who wants beer to be even momentarily interested in the impost. The burden would fall jointly upon the brewers and the retailers, each of the classes shouldering one-half the addi- tion and without the crippling of either be- cause the profits on beer are very great. Can it be that the controlling forces in legislation (who are also controlling forces | when campaign slogans deafen the land)/} are careful not as to the beer-guzzling poor man, but as to the rich brewer and beer- retailer who out of their protected profits hhave been known to contribute freely to political funds? i oe Commencing on Monday next the District of Columbia ts to be made the subject of the most thorough canvass it has ever known save only, perhaps, when the last @ensus was taken. After much labor all the collecting committees authorized by the Citizens’ Central Relief Committee have been organ! -d and equipped, and with the opening of the secular week they. pro- pose to commence their arduous and noble duty of securing from every one who can Possibly contribute some gift which will aid in relieving the prevalent distress. Such a force of collectors should do great work; it is made up of the best and most active of business and social Washington— men and women who in numerous in- stances must sacrifice valuable time in behalf of the poverty stricken of this city. The general and generous public should greet these apostles of charity with all cheerfulness, should respond to the utmost. Better cause than this there never was. ea ntliner ee All of England’s humorists are not en- aged on London’s comic papers. Some are Mmanciers. The latest funniosity perpetrated by these jocular gentlemen relates to the fifty-million bond issue. They want at least One-third of the bonds, and argue that they should have them because England has sup- ported American railroad securities and be- cause many of those securities turned out badly. In other words, they argue that this government should give them an oppor- tunity to recoup losses resultant upon the bad judgment of certain British investors. -—__ + +e __ __ The public will not bury the hatchet until the street railway capitalists bury the trol-| — —on—_ Press dispatches from Nebraska announce an epidemic of “la grippe” on Pine Ridge! Indian Reservation and very many deaths | mong the Indians affected. There is noth- | ing surprising in the statement that the mortality is great, which assumes to be guardian of every In-| @ian in this country, is guilty of criminal neglect in the case of these Indians at Pine | Ridge. Altogether, there must be more than seven thousand Indians resident on that reservation, and unless there has been Fecent increase in the medical force there | the work of ministering to the sick is upon the shoulders of a single doctor. Were all these thousands gathered together | im a crowded setlement there would still} be much more than one man could attend fe, but as the Indi RS are scattered all the | “eurities popular. THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. way from west of the agency to the line which separates Pine Ridge from Rose- bud—but little less than a hundred miles away—the impossibility of giving even a small percentage of the sufferers the most cursory attention must be instantly visible. For the sum of $1,200 a year this physi- must be evident to every reasonable being that considerabie traveling must be done, this generous government graciously per- mits the doctor to purchase the horses he needs and to feed them at his own expense. Frequently ft is stated by those who would apologize for such an inexcusable state of affairs that the Indian has no confidence in the white doctor, and prefers his own medicine-man. Broadly, such a statement is untrue. The Indian on Pine Ridge is fully aware of the agency physician's su- periority, but the fact that the hired healer is frequently forty or fifty miles away|) when he is needed compels the red indi- vidual to patronize home talent, with in- variably disastrous results to himself. Many agencies where there are not more!|_ than from a thousand to fourteen hundred | | Indians are equipped each with a physician. Why should Pine Ridge with its more than seven thousand Indians and a large force of employes be held down to one doctor? A similar question might be asked as to Rosebud agency, which adjoins Pine Ridge on the east. Economy of this sort is simply inhuman. + 0. No nation on earth is more thoroughly disturbed just row than is poor Italy and vniess indications are valueless there is no immediate possibility of the disturbance reaching peaceful conclusion. At the root of all the difficulty is land troubie similar to that which has been so prominent in Irish affairs during recent years, but ag- gravated considerably by govermental pov- erty. Relief would come at once were the Italian treasury well filled or did Italy have credit among the big money lenders, but the Italian strong box is empty and not even German indorsement—of a rather vague sort, it is true—can make Italian se- If Crispi, who is bold and capable, can only devise some scheme by which the Italian nobles who own the ara- ble and pasture lands of Sicily (but who never reside thereon and have none but financial communication therewith) will consent to give the Sicilian peasant a chance to purchase a farm, he will be greatest of all the great men of whom Italy is so proud. Other disturbing causes than the land troubles, but of less impor- tance, are those of military service and the grinding taxation by local authorities of the Tammany sort. It may be that King Hum- bert or Crispi, or some other Italian of prominence will see a way out of the pres- ent confusion, but the outlook for peace is not overclear while the probabilities for revolution are many and portentously large. + e —- Rarely does public sympathy respond more rapidly to unwelcome information than it did when the news of Mr. George W. Child’s illness reached this city. A bulletin || displayed in The Star office brought forth countless expressions of genuine regret and was responsible for the voicing of as many hopes that recovery might be speedy. The news of his improved condition today will be welcomed by thousands who hope that a life may long be spared which is full of good deeds in wholesome journalism and beneficent citizenship. = Oe When Mr. Tom Johnson considers his duty to himself as a business man and his duty to the public legislator, he makes some very delicate Poo-Bah distinctions. —— The jealous regard for its census which characterizes any city of ambition would alone be sufficient to make it the implacable foe of the trolley. — +++ —___ Liliuokalani hopes to be more successful in enlisting soldiers than she has been in enlisting sympathy. ——_ + «-—____ It is only justice to Jerry Simpson to state that he does not roll his trousers up at the bottom or smoke cigarettes. ——__+ «e+ — ‘The present is such an exceedingly open winter that Governor Waite finds it quite impossible to shut up. ——- ee SHOOTING STARS.

But I have a pretty good general idea.” “Well, ye want ter s’loot when ye come across me. See? Yer want ter show the re- spect that’s due my dignities.” “You must be a crank.
