4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, FRIDAY March 9, 1894. Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular = permanent circulation nearly the combined circulation of t athaa Washin, m dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- petitor. Im order to avoid delays, on ac- ence, letters to When the people of the District of Colum- bia are placed upon an equal footing with other Americans and citizens of the various | resentative De} states, as suggested by Rep: — | spite of previous congressional waiver, then Armond, when they have representation in the Senate and House and in the electoral college, and when through # local govern-| 1. a stroke of bosiness for the District ment of their own selection they manage their own affairs, determine how much shall be raised in taxes, and how and by whom this money shall be expended, vided the national obligations which have | arisen under past and different conditions and relations have been fully met, the Dis- trict will not be entitled, as Mr. De Ar- mond reasonably claims, to anything from | the nation, which cannot be justified as a | @irect national appropriation and expendi- ture. But the two changes must be con- temporaneous. It will be dishonorable and @ishonest for the guardian of the capital to repudiate its financial obligations as such guardian, before the guardianship has been surrendered or terminated. If Wash- ington is to be the city of its people, in-| stead of the city of the nation as/ ft has been heretofore, it must be so| in all respects. Congress will not be guilty | of the dishonesty of making it the city of its people so far as the payment of a!l the capital's expenses is concerned, and of leaving it the city of the nation in all other respects. Vague suggestions about | ‘what may be done in the future concerning | those latter points will not answer. If the| nation decides upon a reverral of the pol- icy under which it created a century ago a capital of its very own, and jealously with- held all responsibility amd control from every one else—and a withdrawal from the financial relations which have equitably | arisen under this policy, will amount to} such reversil—then the nation must in honor and justice at the same moment make complete reversal of all parts of this policy. Waiving for the moment all other objections to Mr. De Armond’s proposi- tion, he is surely wrong in urging that Uncle Sam should cease to pay one mo- ment in advance of the cessation of the conditions and relations which have made it his duty to pay. en From several minor sources of comment— heediess of the great quantity of truth spread abroad by those who have actual knowledge of the facts—there continue to come assaults upon that portion of the Ha- walian population which is descended from the men and women who left the United States many years ago and labored in the Islands for the well-being of the native Ha- waiian people. To these petty critics, who are endeavoring to make the word “mis- then, pro- | sionary” a term of reproach, is commended for consideration one of the conclusions reached by Senator Morgan of Alabama after he had conducted an exhaustive in- vestigation into the circumstances which led to the overthruw of the tawdry Queen Littuckalani. Said the Senator: “‘Christian- faith, and a love for constitutional govern- ment, have patiently, laboriously and hon- | estly built up Hawaii into a civilized Dower | under a written constitution, and they can) justly claim the sympathy and assistance of all civilized people in resisting its de-| struction, either to gratify a wanton lust of | absolute power on the part of the queen, ce the abuse of its authority in fostering vice and rewarding crime. The facts of recent | history present broadly and distinctly the| question between an absolute and corrupt | monarchy in Hawali, and a government tn which the rights and liberties guaranteed | by a written constitution shall be respected | and preserved.” But for the missionartes Hawaii would still be in barbarism. —<— In the absence of information as to the causes which brought about the landing of a British force on the Mosquito Coast, anything lke intelligent discussion of probabilities is more than difficult, but the | excuse for the occupation of Bluefields will have to be a very good one to satisfy the American people. By the Clayton-Bulwer treaty of 1850 it was agreed by Great Britain “not te occupy, or fortify, or colonize, or assume, or exercise any dominion over Nicaragua, Costa Rica, the Mosquito Coast or any part of Central America.” There is Possibility that the marines were landed to | quell a disturbance, and that the invasion was therefore justifiable. To imagine that England would deliberately violate a treaty with this nation is to do something which will hardly be done by the majority of Americans unless there is solid testimony to that effect. The truth will be here in a few days, and if it shows improper action on the part of the British government or its agents, there will be plenty of time for in- @ignation and ample opportunity for lan- guage. —__+ + There is not much prospect that Richard Croker will identify himself with Texas poll-| ties. There {s no doubt as to his ability to| manipulate votes. But there is nothing in his career to indicate that he knows his a-b-c’s about a six-shooter. —— Kcurope’s recent experiences with bombs| have doubtless convinced her that the Uni-| ted States’ idea of setting aside one day in the year as sacred to the explosion habit is, | after all, not a bad one. ———— ‘There {s reason to believe that Governor Flower will allow Mrs. Lease to enjoy the unlimited freedom of New York state as Jeng as she wants it. —— wee ‘The House District Committee has amend- @@ the bill “to author'ze the Metropolitan Railroad Company to change its motive) power for the propulsion of the cars of said | company.” Most of the amendments are commendatory. The substitute measure, taken as a whole, is very much nearer to| being satisfactory than was the one dis- cussed in yesterday's Star. By the terms of the substitute the company is not mere! authorized and empowered to equip and cp- erate its lines with a modern subsurface motor, but it is “required” to do this proper | and long-delayed thing. Change has also | been made in designating the force to be used in moving the cars, the new language calling for “an underground system,” in- stead of “the underground electric system; which makes it possibie for the company to employ the cable if it so desires. The highly objectionable section, which made it possible for the company to dis- | eredit even a perfect underground system | and thus open a way for the overhead trolley, has been completely eliminated and time-limits of sufficient area are set. One conspicuous weakness is the abseace of a penalty clause. The bill says that the com- | pany shall complete the new system on the 9th street road within one year from the date of the approval of the act, and on the other portion of its lines within two years, but if the company declines or neglects to obey it does not suffer. Perhaps the com- mittee thought threats unnecessary or,may- be, useless. Twice has Congress told the Metropolitan management that the com- peay’s charter w d be forfeited if certain things were not done, and although the € “poration’s Gsobedience has been obtru- * apparent the charter is unharmed | ani its possessors continue to do business Without any appearance of nervousness. Yet 1* would probably be just as well to eonform to om and to place language! @ the bill which could be used as a buga- | | street blushed, *| And he whooped with glee as the rope he THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 1894--TWELVE PAGES. boo, even if it was no more effective than other harsh words used by Congress in dealing with this same corporation. The humorous and absolutely useless pro- vision of the substitute is found in section 3. It is there provided that nothing in the act shall invalidate or affect the suit now pending against the company for the for- feiture of its charter for failing to pay its pavirg bill, and it is further provided that if, in the case in question, the court should adjudge the charter forfeited the company may cancel the judgment by paying the District the money it owes and refuses to willingly pay. But the paving forfeiture has already been waived, according to Judge Bradley, by previous congressional legisla- tion, and there is no disclaimer of waiver as to the motive power forfeiture, so that the effect of this provision is to declare that Congress does waive the forfeiture which tt has not already waived, and does not waive the forfeiture which it has al- ready waived,and as to the latter forfeiture, if the courts shall decide it to be such in it shall not operate as a forfeiture against the company. The committee would be do- whose interests they represent and are pro- tecting if they should substitute for this provision a stipulation that the company pay in consideration of a waiver of the two forfeitures any amount from the full debt down to a nickel; for whatever the amount stated it would represent just so much clear gain over and above what the District will probably obtain on its paving account un- der the bill as it stands. ——___ +++ ---__ “And, finally, I wish to put on record my belief—and I know whereof I sp2ak—that man will navigate the air at will within twelve months.” With this rernarkable yet hardly surprising sentence Mr. J. Rudolf Zuberbuhler concludes a somewhat inter- esting communication to the New York Sun—a communication which should be read by every person interested in tariff legisla- tion. At first glance the connection between aerial navigation and the Wilson tarlif bill, for instance, may not be apparent, but the thoughtful man must quickly. see that im- port duties cannot possibly exist when the new means of traffic is in thorough working order. Customs officers have difficulty in keeping sound the barrier which Congress has set up along the boundaries of the Union, but there would need to be a customs officer for about every square mile of terri- tory in the United States should the pre- diction of Mr. J. Rudoif Zuberbuhler ma- terialize and there be at the same time a law which insisted upon the collection of import duties. That the flying machine will within a few years become an unqualitied success is @ not unreasonable conclusion, which should be taken into consideration by those who are now worrying over the prob- abilities of a long tariff debate in the Sen- ate. In view of the rational probability indicated by Mr. Zuberbuhler, would it not be well to definitely postpone tariff action for a specific period—say one year; by that time all such legisiation miznt be unneces- sary and a free-trade, universal income tax system unavoidable. Is it not going to be a waste of time and money and eloquence to spcnd the summer in arranging and rear- ranging schedules that will be meaningles3 when the prophecy of Mr. J. Rudolf Zuber- buhler comes to pass’ —_—_ +0 Some provision should be made for spe>ta- tors in the event that the White Lot circle becomes the fashionable drive. It ought not to be expected that horses should prance, pole chains rattle, carriages gleam and coachmen and footmen look severely proper if there is no one to admire. The oc2upants of the fine equipages cannot fill this role, for they are a part of the turn-out and must | preserve that air of thoroughbred hauteur which ts the most conspicuous feature that goes with the rig. It is not considered proper under such circumstances to appear \etther interested or amused—those little human weaknesses are only indulged in at home. It is a good idea—that of a fashion- able drive. Connecticut avenue at present has the distinguished honor, but the pageant of society on wheels would be more con- densed on the White Lot. But there should be a wide walk constructed, supplied with) | benches, where the pedestrian public could sit and see the equipages roll by. The spec- tacle would be interesting to the people and carriage occupants would be encouraged by wants, Bune DOES DID—or EVER TLI—sell such sterling qualities at such low hee as WE quote. SAKS AND COMPANY. The turning point. spectators. Besides all this, the White Lot ought to be made more of a resort and should play a more prominent part in the daily life of Washington. It lies close to the heart of the city and there is no need of waiting for a holiday to go out and enjoy the green grass and the trees and the re freshing shimmer of the not far distant Potomac. ———— -»+0ee ——_ The unblushing display of prurient court- ropm curiosity in connection with the Breck- inridge-Pollard case is not its least de- plorable feature. ——_ +42 ——__ If Admiral da Gama insults enough flags in his present indiscriminate fashion he may yet get a chance to fight. onal Uncle Tom's Cabin with two Topsies isn’t a circumstance to New Jersey with two senates, ——- +42 Lord Rosebery will now go in and see if he can attain the title of “Grand Young Man.” SHOOTING STARS.
