HE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. FRIDAY..................dume 22, 1894. CROSBY Ss. 3 -Editor. ratte aiid THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more thi the combined cire tion of “he other Washington dailies. As a Ne and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. ea ttinnneeetaealsin f7Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal letters to THE STAR fice, but simply t the Edittorial aecording to ten If further testimony were needed to show how inadequate is this city’s system of Sewerage it was supplied by the report of the sewerage committee of the beard of trade, printed in yesterday's Star. The committee has evidently given the subject careful consideration and reports that in its search for information as to the dis- posal of the sewage and rainfall it was found that the sewage, mixed with the storm water, “was emptied through trunk lines of conduits, too small at times for this Gouble service, into water closely surround- ing the city on three of its sides, there to be moved to and fro along its shores by the tides, until it is either destroyed by oxidation or carried down the river by its current." The examination convinced the committee of the inadequacy of the service and made plain the fact that the present system is converting the water-front into| an open sewer and “is not only a serious menace to health, but is largely responsible for the increased death rate in the vicinity of our water-frontage.” The system, as the committee rightly concludes, is the nat- ural outgrowth of a makeshift policy of small and inadequate appropriations. The remedy is very plain. A board of three competent sanitary engineers, created by act of Congress, examined and reported upon the sewerage system more than four years ago and finally recommended the adoption of a comprehensive and, in the long run, economical plan, involving an es- timated expense of more than three and a half millions of dollars. All possible danger to health from sewage will doubtless be completely removed by the putting into ef- fect of the plans of the sewer commission of 1800. A bond issue will supply the needed funds and will distribute equitably the cost of an improvement which will be of incal- culable value not only to the Washington- fans of today, but to succeeding genera- Hons. —- -+ e+ Those who have watched the life-destroy- ing progress of the overhead-trolley system, and who beiween the instances of human sacrifice have found occupation in investi- gating the tremendous destruction of gas and water pipes by the trolley’s return- current, will await with impatient interest the coming of an explanation from Koches- ter, N. ¥. From telegraphic dispatches re- ceived, it seems that Stephen Kirk, a tel- egreph lineman, unfortunately came in contact with a trolley-wire. There was momentary effort toward mundane salva- tion on the part of the doomed man, but It was unavailing. When taken down, Kirk was still alive, but died almost immediately after being placed in an ambulance, in which he was to have been conveyed to a hospital. Upon the staff of each trolley company of any consequence there is gen- erally one person—always alleged to be the possessor of profound electrical sphysiologieal knowledge—who can prove to the satisfaction of his employers that the ‘current never did have and never could “have anything more than the most indefin- ite and far-distant connection with the death of any one who chanced to come in contact with it; for the theory of the Rochester expert many people walt. Of course it will be said that the company Was astounded to learn that any being possessed of reasonably good heaith should have permitted such a trifle as five or six hundred volts to disturb his equanimity, and several ready witnesses will be dis- played, who will testify that it ts their hourly custom to absorb twice or three times that quantity solely for the pleasure it affords them. Then, too, it may be ais- covered that the lineman was suffering from heart disease in its most advanced stage, and that his death resulted from a shock to the heart, superinduced by the possibility of his falling off the pole. Per- haps it will be contended that the putting of Kirk in the ambulance was the cause of dissolution, for it can undoubtedly be proven that the man was alive until that was dome. The general public, however, is no longer to be deceived by the speciou: untruths manufactured for such occasion: it knows that the trolley current is dan- gerous and that it will kill whenever it gets a fair opportunity. > o> ——__ It has been suggested that the removal of the pumps, which have so long been pop- ular street features of Washington, may easily result in more or less hardship to those who prefer water as a beverage to strong liquors, and who have been accus- tomed to quenching their thirst at the pumps. If the District Commissioners can enly manage it they would do a good work by scattering a liberal supply of hydrants, with drinking-cup attachments, all over the city. Washington has many very de- lightful features, but it is lamentably short of good drinking-fountains, and whenever an effort has been made to provide the thirsty with gratuitous opportunity for thirst-slaking, there seems to have been @n undercurrent of effective opposition. Water should be plentiful and free and within the reach of every thirsty pedestrian in the District of Columbia. If the tem- perance societies desire to do something that will be thoroughly appreciated they will unite to bring about an immediate in- srease of local drinking-fountains. —— wee Those newspapers which “take sugar in theirs,” are not concerned about the itverty of the pres: + «= —_____ Senator Allen shows up well in the sugar investigation. ——_+ ++ There is overmuch of false sentiment in this land at this time—sentiment that is evil in its tendercies, and that promises to work infinite harm among those whose pressions by which their lives will princi- pally be guided. The case of Erastus Wi- man has offered the sentimentalists an- ether opportuni doctrines which, edily destroy wrk ruin to to publish abroad those if put into practice, would the discipline of law and the institutions of which New York Recorder is one of those who cry aloud for genteel exemption from | punishment for crime. It advocates a re- casting of the penal code and a readjust-| ment of penalties on what it thinks would be a more rational and natural basis. It complains that there is lack of flexibility fm cur standards of punishment. “We take,” it says, “the purest thug from Thug- ville, who commits erime from the love of it, preys upon society as a business, and is an innate and incorrigible villain, and we punish him. How? By a graded scale of years to be spent in prison. * * * Then we take dur Erastus Wimans—men of natur- ally honest instincts and high impulses, men to whom crime is abhorrent, and whose whole lives have testified to the in- ent Integrity of their characters. And when they have been tempted or driven by circumstances into a stretching of their authority—which, had it resulted profitably, would never have caused a word of com- piaint from anybody; but, having resulted in loss to themselves and others, causes them to be brought within the same crimi- ral definition as the professional roguc whose portrait is in every city’s police album—we punish them. And how? Why, h Youthful minds are now imbibing the im-| fs nation shculd be and ts proud. The! by the same graded scale of years to be spent in prison that we use to mete out justice to the vilest and most abandoned criminal in the land.” It will be admitted by very many people that one week of im- prisonment would cause Erastus Wiman as much mental disturbance as ten years of incarceration would a professional criminal, but that is no reason why there should be disctimination in administering law. If, however, there is to be a display of pity, let it be for the unfortunate who was born a criminal, or whose training was such that it warped what might under other circum- stances hava been a noble character and gave it the trend that landed the body it controlled in the grasp of those whose duty it is to enforce the statutes. The conviction of such a man has but little effect upon the non-criminal classes, but the conviction of one who, being wealthy and powerful, yet does wrong, teaches to thousands who stand on the brink the danger of plunging into the speculative sea. To punish the weak employe who inherits his weakness and to permit the cultured and philanthropic millionaire to go free would be one of the most serious offenses against society of which legislatures and courts could be guilty. It is entirely proper to regret that one who has done so much good and whose life held promise of mag- nificent achievement should permit tempta- tion to wreck his career, but mere regret should not be permitted to overturn jus- tice. Let the rising generation be shown the dangers of dishonesty. —___ +. ——__—_ Filled with a lively and reasonable hope, the Washington Saengerbund today de- parted for New York, there to participate in the National Saengerfest, which opens this evening at Madison Square Garden and continues until Tuesday next.
