NOYES — ‘THE EVENING STAR hasa regal permanent circulation nearly do! the combined circalation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- oC order to avoid delays, on ac- count of perso absénce. letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to THE STAR, or to Business Department, F purpore. Fo ok ane, acacia dBi A Sa ‘There are two points of controversy in- ‘volved in the Metropolitan railroad dis- cussion, and they should not be confused. The first has reference to the practical Fechartering of the road and the motive | power to be used by the road, and the sec- | ond is the question of requiring the road to pay its paving bill as a condition prece- dent to rechartering. The people of the city in general favor a rechartering of the read ané a waiver of the double for- feiture which has been incurred by it provided the immediate use of the underground electric system upon the road is certainly assured, and the other condi- tions attached to the rechartering are such as to properly protect the public interests. The provisions iu respect to the change of motive power cannot be too stringent, and there ought to be a stiff penalty clause, involving even another forfeiture of the road's franchise in case of failure to com- Ply with these provisions. If, as repre- sented in behalf of the company, nothing but the underground electric system can be vsed upon the F street line, on account of the curves, whereas either the cable or un- derground electric can be used on the 9th street line,and in respect to the latter the company wishes to exercise an option as to the choice between these two motive Pow- ers, then it would be better to provide pri- marily for putting in the underground elec- tric system on the F street ine, and post- poning the work on the 9th street lin in- stead of following the opposite course, as proposed by the bill. The underground electric system would chen in the ‘rst year | be put into use over that part of the rcad in respect to which the company says that only this system of rapid traasit is avail-} able, and in the work during the following | year on the 9th street line the company might be permitted to use ei w the ca- ble or underground ri as | it thought best. The principal | concern of Washington in this legislation is that Congress shall compel the road, as a) condition of waiver of its repeated forfeit- ures, to put into operation as soon as pos-| sible under conditions which shal! not | tempt the corporation to deliberately throw | obstacles in the way of the success of the} new system, an underground electric sys-| tem over the whole of one of its great trunk lines. The city is not par-| ticular whether the system which has been | so successful in Buda-Pesth or the system | which is so successful in this city be em- ployed. But it calls upon its common coun- cil and board of aldermen in Congress as- sembled to seize and rightly use this op- portunity of making a distinct advance in urban rapid transit, that is safe and un-/ disfiguring, that threatens neither life nor property, neither insurance rates, nor gas and water pipes, and that is both practical- ly successful and entirely unobjectionatle. This legislation will be another step toward making the capital a model in this regard among American cities. As to what shall be exacted from the road im reference to its paving bill, Congress may and must decide for itself. The road ought to have paid the money long ago. It eschped through the statute of limitations. Congress declared that it must pay, not- withstanding the statute, and declared its franchise forfeited if it did not pay. the road had disregarded this command of Congress, and its franch was forfeited as far as the power of Congress} could work this forfeiture Congress | legislated in respect to the road and/ thus waived the forfeiture, and the pending | proceeding to enforce this forfeiture will fail. The present legislation also waives the road’s second forfeiture, arising from its failure to make a change in its motor power. | Thus Congress has declared that the read must pay the debt, has forfeited the road's franchise for refusing to pay, and has uxin- tentionally waived this forfeiture by its own act in subsequently legislating in re- spect to the company. Unless Congress: now re-insists upon payment by the; road, not acent will ever be id. The} Commissioners are not to ecide what Congress shail do in the matter. Congress may say what It sald before, that the road, to continue to live, must pay the entire debt, or $000 of the amount, or nothing | + at all. But it ought to say directly and| clearly what it does mean that the road shall do. Any declaration that a waiver of forfeiture is not a waiver of forfeiture, or | any assump’ that there is possibly al power in the District to enforce the pay- ment of this debt on the strength of a for- feiture, which Congress h: itself uninten- Uonaily already waived, iS worse than use- less. _ 2eo__—_—_— The change of complexion which the Yilson bill is radually but surely und may be exp: to bring new talent to its support. Indeed, if the present pace is maintained there is no reason in the world why Major McKinley should not step to the front and orate in its behalf. The major’s past career is sufficient guar- | antee that he would be superior to any eensiderations of professional jealousy whick the mere popular title of the act to be superseded might suggest. see With Falls supplying electric Power there is more than ever reason to look forward to a magnificent future for the Great Falls of the Potomac. tee Democratic newspapers are at present chiefly interesting for the manner in which they peel the epidermis off democratic statesmen. +e With the New York Herald as a visual medium the people of the United Stat enabled to + Without the int sistance of smoked glass, the p pearance, the manners, the hop fears of the some-time silent M inis, who not so very long ugo was Queen of the Hawaiian Islands; and for th glimpse of royalty in retirement thus forded there should be great popular grat-| itude. The ex-queen, clad in silk, was, when | the Herald representative entered the apartment, seated ma divan and en- ged in producing what is chroaicled as riegated crochet.” The first sentence uttered by her ex-majesty was strongly condemnatory of the policy of this admin- istration. Said she, “I trust that you are ur visit in the Hawalian Islands d our people pleasant and court- h I must assure you that they | very much, owing to the un-| certain conditions which have so long pre-| valled."

Of course correspondents can- not always be blamed for being prejudiced in favor of the views represented by their) papers, but sometimes they have written shameful reports of interviews.” Such a warning might have been flung at some of the correspondents who have been sending news from Honolulu, but it was most un- kind to even intimate that the Herald would do anything to hurt the feelings of those who lay claim to the possession of royal blood. When the interview came to an end it was the journalist's intention, so he said in the Herald, “merely to make a respectful bow” and withdraw, “but Liliuo- | kalani stepped forward pleasantly and of- fered me her hand, shaking a parting fare- well, and wished me a pleasant sojourn and a safe return home.” How gracious, how kind, how condescending an the part of her brunette mightiness! And how delighted the Herald's representative must have been when permitted to enjoy actual contact with the hand of the woman who while queen represented public immofality and advocated the infamous rites of her hardly more barbarous ancestors, and who when ejected from power endeavored to regain possession of the old-time honors with an undeystanding that restoration for herself should mean death to everyoae who had been prominent in the setting up of a clean and generally desirable government. It is really remarkabie that the Herald corres- pondent did not prostrate himself at the feet of her of whom his soul stood in awe, and after a few suitable grovelings move out of the room backwards on his hands and knees. ——__ +++ —___ The joint efforts of Admirals da Gama and Mello to overthrow the republican form of government in Brazil have come to naught and with the downfall of these leaders the hopes of many royalists in Europe have been shattered completely. It has been insisted by a number of well-in- formed persons, who were probably insin- cere, that the insurgents had no designs upon the life of the republic, but the world at large has found it rather difficult to un- derstand why a revolution was attempted if the friends of the imperial government | | did not figure on the return of the royal family of Brazil to power. First to rebel was Admiral Mello, who, in officially de- with the government, said that Peixoto tad usurped the powers of the people by using corrupt measures for the election of army officers to congress, had set at naught the constitution and put Brazil under the sway of an absolute tyranny. Later, Admiral da Gama boldly proclaimed the doctrine of a rehabilitated monarchy and stuck to his principles until it became apparent that he was damaging the rebel cause by his over- flow of language, when it was announced that the insurrectionists had changed their minds and that their sole endeavor would be directed to the elimination of President Peixoto as a political force. But Peixoto was not so easily removed. He bought a navy that was good enough to bring about a complete collapse of the rebellion without the great naval engagement for .which everybody has been waiting and he will turn over to his successor in the presidential office a republic that seems to be founded more solidly than the average South Amer- ican republic generally is. oe —__ A New York judge has taken the trouble to decide that a child has as much right in the street as an adult.
