rns esc or » CROSBY S. NOYES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY. July 2, 1894. .Editor. = THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of -he other Wa ston dailies. Asa Advertising Medium it has no competitor. letters to according to tenor or parpose. ‘The Pennsylvania Railroad Company and about one hundred and fifty residents of; Washington have every reason for con- gratulating themselves over the good for- tune that last night kept apart a Pennsyl-' vania locomotive and a train of three cable- cars. Had the collision occurred—and it for asking Congress to adopt the policy of inaction; not until the strikers interfere by violence with the transportation of the mails can the general government take official cognizance of the trouble that now disturbs so large an area of this. country, and it is questionable whether the army could be called upon to do guard duty for trains that are made up of cars not ab- solutely necessary for the conduct of pub- lic and private business. But while these ifferences of opinion exist as to what the government should or should not do, Mr. Hayes and those who are of his faith should bear in mind the fact that the government of the Union would have but little difficulty | in justifying itself shétid it exert itself to trouble as now threatens. The question which is being asked by many today is: Should the government stand passively by and let the entire arterial system of the country be tied into one great knot to the material damage of national commerce? The problem is a serious one. The rail- roads of Amerida are to the country what the blood-vessels are to the human body, and once they are choked congestion en- sues and death is ameasy probability. The was averted only by speedy action on the part of the engineer—many of the retyrn- ing excursionists would surely have been; killed, while but few could possibly have escaped without more or less injury. There i have been other incidents similar to thej one which is now the occasion of so much comment, but in none of them was the margin of safety so narrow or the number of persons concerned greater. The story 1s told in the news columns. The cable-cars were north-bound and were crossing the Pennsylvania Company's tracks at 7th street and Virginia avenue when the gate- keeper on duty at that intersection sud- denly awoke to the fact that one of the trains, for the coming of which he is sup- posed to watch, was approaching quite near the crossing. He thereupon lowered those bars which, by the satirically-inclined are Sometimes called “‘safety-gates,” and thus shut the cable-train in a trap that would surely nave proven fatal had not the loco- motive engineer seen the situation, shut off steam and applied every available brake. Wet tracks would have rendered the en- gineer’s efforts unavailing, so close was the shave. If present conditions continue, the chances are decidedly favorable to such a catastrophe at that crossing as will compel the presence of grief in many homes and arouse Washingtonians to a sense of per- sonal interest which will do more than any- thing else to hasten the coming of that day when there shall ve no more grade- cressings within the District of Columbia. The Pennsylvania Company, through its more prominent officials, has long been on record as favorable to either the elevation or depression of steam raliroad tracks in cities, and they have even gone so far as to express the company’s willingness to so improve its facilities here that the public would have no reasonable ground for com- plaint. But the promises have never been anything more than promises, and unless Congress should decide to declare its inde- pendence and insist upon the railroad com- |! pany’s doing the proper thing, there will be grade-crossings on the streets of the national capital for many years to come. see ‘The projectors cf the Atlanta Exposition, which will be open from September 1 to December 31, 1505, do not intend that it shall be sectional in its scope. They have planned it ax an American exposition, em- bracirg the entire Union and open to ex- hibits from Mexico, Central and South America and the West Inmiies. No city per- haps is more rvpresentative of the new scuth than Atlante. Its citizens, while re- | taining all the delightful personal qualities | characteristic of southerners, have devel- oped an energy and a spirit of enterprise that might put to blush the people of maay @ western town, who flatter themselves by appropriating the name of “hustlers.” Everyone will wish Atlanta the best of luck im the enterprise which she now has on her hands. Naturally the proposed exposition will provide a fine opportunity for bringing } to the attention of the world the resources | of the south and the industrial progress made there since conditions were so greatly | changed by the war. One feature of the! exposition will be exhibits by colored peo- ple, showing the advancement the race has! made in the useful arts. It is contemplated to have a building exclusively devoted to| the colored people. The exposition as a whole, it is hoped, will be of the greatest profit, not to the south only, but to the whole nation as well. ——————— Representstive W. C. P. Breckinridge, who is extremely desirous of re-election to Congress, is sandwiching into his appeais to the voters of the Ashland district, slurs against the District of Columbia court and jury that were unfortunately compelled by law and duty to listen to the flow of linguistic sewage that resulted from many years of misconduct on the part of Mr. Breckinridg>. Those who read Mr. Breck- inridge’s testimony im that nauseatingly- notorious case will find it extremely diffi- cult to figure out any ground of complaint against any one but Mr. Breckinridge him- self. The defendant in Miss Pollard’s suit is at liberty to argue to his constituents that gross immorality ts not a serious of- fense in a statesman, but he is entirely Without excuse for slandering either Judge Bradley or the twelve men whose verdict Proves to have been a merely nominal vic- tory for the plaintiff. If the people of the} seventh Kentucky district decide to, re-| elect Mr. Breckinridge the people of Wash- ington may or may not be surprised—they really have no special interest in the matter —but there is a strong local objection to the untruthful innuendo against a local court which Mr. Breckinridge is diligently en- deavoring to put into circulation. 0] It would be interesting to have from the Italian anarchist who stabbed an editor for denouncing political lawlessness his views on the freedom of the press. —— General Secretary Hayes of the Knights of Labor has addressed to Congress a peti- tion in which he, acting for the order of which he is a prominent officer, politely (Fequests national legislators to keep their hands off in the struggle which Is now tak- ing place between labor organizations and Tailroad corporations. To many, the request will appear simple and reasonable, and there will have to be general admission that Mr. Hayes’ logic is forceful, but it is & most unfortunate thing at this time— after a year of such commercial paralysis as this country never before knew—that capital and labor should stand arrayed against each other, as the request indicates, to such a disturbing extent as is now ap- Parent even to the thoughtless. Of course Fo one knows what resuits wil! follow Mf. Hayes’ appeal to members of Congress— some will be on the laborer’s side, while others can be depended upon to fight blind- Mf of the financial forces against ch thousands of wage-eurners are in| open rebellion. The situation of the govern- rent is critical. It should never deab| otherwise than justly by all in ts with- | in its jurisdiction, but the demand for un- | erring wisdom at this time is sufficient to} Worry even veterans in public affairs. Both | parties to the controversy are persistent in| their adherence to principles generally | understood; the laborer crying aloud for! non-interference by the constituted author- | ities, the employer insisting upon his right to conduct his business in his own way and demanding protection of that right. | Outside of these two forces is the gen public, believing firmly trine that neither of the antagonists has any right to interfere with the welfare | or comfort of non-combatants. With this| idea neither of the conflicting interests has | Much sympathy, although it maye be ex-| pected that in a little while the ratiroad | companies will endeavor to work some such argument in their own behalf. The law as to the use of United States troops 1s quite well defined in its every provision, go Mr. Hayes really has but little excuse al | im the broad doc-} Fopulation is so great and the territory that practically cannot be traversed save y by rail has been so widened, that a strike Lke the present one is prolific of most dis- | tressing consequences. Thefe is no more vital spot in the entire organism of the nation than its transportation routes, and !to threaten them 1s to bring disaster on | nearly every branéh of business. Within j Constitutional limits, therefore, it would seem to be entirely proper for the general government to do what it can to quiet trouble that has resulted in or promises to result in lawlessness or great disaster. National interference is to be deplored at all times, and is, of course, only permis- sible when the states in which the trouble 1s are powerless. Mr..«Hayes need not fear revolutionary action on the part of the | government of the United States; that | great power may not be misused, even by j the biggest combination of corporations ever organized. 1 j —__ +++ ___ The position of the Chinaman in this country on public fons is one of lone- liness. In the midst of our patriotic dem- onstrations, shared by representatives of many nations, the Chinaman says nothing and washes clothes. But he should not be , forgotten on the Fourth of July. While his imusket was not lifted in the revolution and his ears did not drink in the notes of the Mberty bell, it is an imposing and in- | disputable fact that he furnishes the fire fire-crackers. oe Richard Croker may deserve some sym- pathy for having so arranged his plans as to oblige him to spend :ime in New York during the hot weather.
