4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY... January 26, 1894. ‘THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation nearly double the combined circalation of the other ‘Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Mediam it has no com- petitor. Im order to avoid delays, om ac- letters to Fue ‘sak should not be nd water power will soon rush continuously to supply industrial motive force. There never was any question as to the possibility of harnessing as much as was wanted of the Fapidly-descending river; all that was needed was a sufficiency of capital with which to purchase the harness. In all, about $,- 000,000 have been invested in the construc- tien of the tunnel, which has a capacity of one hundred and twenty-thousand horse power. This power will be applied in prac- tically every manufacturing establishment erected or to be erected at Niagara Fails. Turbine wheels whirled by the rushing waters will run the machinery and generate more electricity than there is now any need for in that vicinity. The direct result of the enterprise, which was yesterday proven to be thoroughly practical, will be the building up in the neighborhood of the falls of what will probably be the greatest manufactur- ing community in the world. Of course this will not come immediately, but it is wasily possible that within the coming twenty years the scenic attractions of the grand cataract will be less interesting than the hive of industry for which the torrent w responsible. Some day a wealthy cor- oration will look with a business eye upon che valuable force now unused that goes to waste within sixteen miles of this city, and then Washington the beautiful will have within easy reach a great manufac- turing center which, by reason of its near- ness to tidewater, will possess advantages not possibly to be secured by a city located as is the one on the banks of the Niagara River. When that time comes, this city will be electrically illuminated throughout, and the electricity will be generated at Great Falls and transmitted to Washing- ton just as the current is transmitted in many parts of Europe today. Steam sta- onary engines will give way to the cleaner and more satisfactory motor, and many lines of business will undergo profit- able revolution. These desirzble things will not happen this year, nor, perhaps, will a beginning be made within the present cen- tury, but to imagine that such a vast quantity of power will long be permitted to run idly is out of the question. The growing keenness of commercial competi- tion will compel economy, and there are no forces so economical as those of nature. ——_~+ «+ —_ The ability of men educated in this coun- try to talk clearly and effectively in pub- lic on various questions has frequently been commented upon by writers and observers of American customs and characteristics. The fact has been pointed out that it is not unusual! to listen to admirable speeches im public meetings from men who do not belong to professions which cultivate the faculty of public speaking. An excellent instance of this American trait, as if has sometimes been called—although it seems to ‘be quickly acquired by those who come from other countries and make their home hhere—was found in the sessions of the Na- tional board of Trade, which today con- cluded its sessions in this city. This organi- gation is composed of the representatives of leading commercial bcdies throughout the country, and its annual meetings are de- ‘Yoted to the discussion of important na- Gional questions. The discussions, as well @s the conclusions, are marked by the dig- Bity and good sense that might be expected from a body composed, as this Is, of the Fepresentative men in the business commu- nities of the great commercial centers of the country. Presiding over their delibera- tions sat Mr. Frederick Fraley, who was elected president of the board twenty-six years ago, when the organization was first effected, and has ever since served the board in the same capacity. He is long past the age reached by the majority of men, and while he shows some evidences of the weakness of advanced years, yet thus far they. are only physical indications. Old age has not yet reached his mind, except to en- rich it with the stores of wisdom and ex- perience which come with years. He 1s now ninety-one years of age and is prob- ably the oldest man who ever actively held @ position of the kind. ——_+> += —___ The Corbett-Mitchell prize-fight is over and the city of Jacksonville may, if it can, git down quietly to calculate the profits that accrued from the most recent and conspicuous exhibition made under the auspices of the Duval Athletic Club. If the account does not come out on the wrong side of the thing wrong with us figure up the receipts. The hotels— principally through their bar rooms—raked im a few thousand dollars which would not have come to them in the course of regu- jar business; the hack-drivers added an inconsiderable amount to their wealth; negro children, who danced to amuse the invading “sports” are the richer by a few nickels; the disorderly element of both wexes made the most of the brief oppor- tunity. But what about the debit side? The city has become known the whole world over as the only one in the United States in which two human brutes could meet in public, and, for a fee, display their mutilating and debasing powers; for sev- eral days the streets were practically pos- wessed by some of the toughest of mortals, who drank to excess and created disturb- ance whenever they were so inclined; law Was evaded and decency disregarded; the state was put to considerable expense for preventive efforts; and the moral sense of the city was, if not actually damaged, ex- posed in all its naked emaciation. —s It is solemnly stated that a tea was the attraction that lured Mr. Croker to Wash- ington. Whether the tea was of the social or the senatorial variety is not clearly in- dicated by the circumstances. +e] Pugilist Corbett may yet find himself in a Position to exercige some of his spryness in dodging the income tax. ~ ee Mr. Peckham will kindly hold still and not wriggle his eyebrows while the Senate takes his picture. ledger there is some- soe The anarchists may yet be the means of causing a monarchy trust to spring up in Europe. ————_+ + 2 ___ About once in every year or so the de- Partmenta! authorities deem it necessary to amend and generally to extend the regula- tions by which the departmental employes are, or are supposed to be, governed. These regulations are, as a rule, eminently proper and could not possibly be objected to by any conscientious individual who achieved a position on [ Samuel roll. It is undoubtedly true, though, t few clerks are a little less than consc n- tious, and it is the Inches of such as these that bring about the drafting of rules which at times result in the embarrassment n only of the sinners, but also of the gre: and guiltless majority. It will be admitted THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, JANUARY 26, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. essarily wasted; that the efficiency reaches @ reasonable average, and that sick leaves are not improperly obtained. But there are at least two ways in which the work of supervision can be conducted. In some offices there are tendencies to harshness and to the cultivation in a few of dicta- torial manners toward the subordinate many; under those conditions the spy-sys- tem flourishes and a feeling of unwholeso:ne distrust is generated. In other offices the subordinates are treated as though they were honorable men and women—as nine- tenths of them, or more, undoubtedly are— and the result is better work and a greater quantity of work per capita than can possi- bly be accomplished in departments or bureaus where the inquisitorial methods pre- vail. As to the propriety of administrative strictness there can be no question, but there are at least two ways in which the theory can be put in practice—one is a manly and profitable one; the other encour- ages the sneakishly-inclined and disgusts the decent. —_—_++>—___ A truly horrible story is that which comes from Chicago and gives details of the death of a starving woman who was fatally crushed while in a multitude of unfortu- mate men and women who were applying for a little temporary relief. In company with her husband—neither of them having tasted food for more than forty-eight hours —this victim of a mob’s hunger was in the county charity agent's office awaiting the bestowal of a few necessaries. Others were there as empty as she and less patient. Unable to control themselves—many being rendered desperate by starvation—most of the waiting ones engaged ina struggle for the best positions in line, and while the fight was in progress the weak woman, who hun- gers no more, was so severely injured that within a few hours she died. dt is an aw- ful condition which exists when a physic- ally weak woman, who never asked assi: ance in all her days before, is crushed to life- Jessness by fellow-beings whose frenzy for bread is almost murderous. Destitution so pitable is not known to exist in the Di® trict of Columbia, but there have been, and doubtless are, many individual instances of local want only a trifle less distressing. Opportunity is now afforded every Wash- ingtonian who can give—no matter how small the contribution—to subscribe some- thing toward the amelioration of distress the like of which was never before known in this community. ——_ +++ ____ While Germany exults over the appar- enuy happy ending of a long and bitter dis- agreement between its emperor and Prince | Bismarck, there seems to be no reason why any of the other European nations should rejoice. In the hearts of the people gen- | erally there is a strong if unspoken desire for peace; a desire which finds no comfort in the repaired friendship of the Kaiser and the ex-chancellor. So long as the agreement between these extremely dis- similar men continues it is the emperor who will dominate. Intent only upon prep- arations for tremendous strife, he will not suffer interference with his plans, nor is it expected that Bismarck would attempt to offer any serious obstruction. Far ad- vanced in years and possessed of capricious vitality, the old statesman will probably be ec=tent to assist the monarch in working out and endeavoring to make successful the imperial design. It is a strange com- bination, indicative of the early breaking of a great European storm. —__ + «+ —___. Possibly Russell Sage has given due re- flection to the question of whether or not it would be a good thing to get Mr. McKane to teach a Sunday-school class in the taber- nacle, by way of an advertisement. ———_ ee --— The cold wave should not be without its influence in leading Mr. St. Gaudens to provide more garments even at an artistic sacrifice. Charley Mitchell says he will not fight any more. This is one of the most prompt and complete reformations on record. —— Mr. Hill is of the opinion that the wheels of justice are pretty good things to grind moral arithmetic. Let} political axes on. —__~ ++ ____ Corbett has no complaint to make of hard times. ————— SHOOTING STARS. Melancholy. The vanquished pugilist exclaimed, “Of friends 1 am bereft. Nobody cheers when I am named; I've not a cuckoo left.” e He Was Not Frank. “Do you know,” said Cholly, “that 1 have verwy {wequently thought of lots of clevah things.” “Then,” she replied, earnestly, “I shouid prefer that we become strangers.” “Why?” “Because I do not feel that it is wise for me to cultivate the society of one whese nature is so deceptive.” A Difference in the Morning.

Peffer, dear! We fear you are an alarm- ist. Else why should you wag your hirsute chin and say, as you did in the Senate on | Monday, “A day of retribution is coming— | a day of reckoning is nigh at hand. The people will smite their enemy. In their wrath this great crime will be avenged!” Language so earnest and impassioned should not be indulged in unless you have advices that warrant it. Many people will be disturbed by it. Some will provision themselves for a siege and barricade their doors and windows. Some will betake them- to the mountain fastnesses, others i fly into the depths of forests and many will go down cellar and wait for it to blow over. Your language. Peffer, is more blood- curdling and more devastating than any- | thing even that was uttered on the floor | of the Senate during the eclipse of gayety and the general sense of impending doom ich prevailed while the silver debate was on in the extra session. —_—_—_+ +2 A Place of Danger.
