4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. SATURDAY. --. September 22, 1804. CROSBY S$. NOYES. ---Editer. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Mediam tt has mo competitor. 7m order to avoid driays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be add ney the democratic candidate for governor of New York results naturally in the meas- urement, not of his capabilities, but of the voting force he can probably command. ‘That the ex-Secretary of the Navy would rerve to tap it. In addition to being the possessor of the before-mentioned “barrel,” Mr. Whitney has an apparently inexhausti- ble store of that variety of personal mag- Petism which has often proved to be much more valuable than dollars possibly could be. But it is a question whether this com- bination of ordinarily-potent powers can erase from the memories of David Bennett Hill and his followers the words and deeds of William C. Whitrey at the Chicago con- vention. Without the earnest support of the Hill faction, neither Mr. Whitney nor any other democrat could reasonably hope to secure legal possession of the guberna- torial chair, and it would be asking a good deal of the Senator and his political asso- ciates should“ they be calied upon to vote for the man who, more than all others, ix responsible for smashing the Hill presi- dential boom. But, in such an event, the position of the Hill politicians would be no more embarrassing than wduld be the posi- tion of Mr. Whitney and his friends should the democratic nomination for governor be entrusted to Senator Hill—a probability by Mo means remote. The Empire State de- mocracy is now in search of the man who Promises to be the most successful vote- getter, and in a contest of that sort the Senator would surely not be a tail-ender. Supposing the state convention should nomi- mate the Senator and he accepts, how will it be possible for those New York demo- rats who assured the Chicago convention of Hill's unfitness for everything in general and for political place in particular to work and vote for him whom they so recently and so vigorovsly condemned? — Health Officer Wocdward's return from a teur of investigation into the methods of garbage disposal common in some of the principal eastern cities, once more directs attenticn to a matter in which every resi- dent of the District of Columbia must be mere or less interested. Two methods of ¢ispesal have been thoroughly tried here, but neither of them achieved success. The crade and malodorous p!sn of shipping the refuse the shortest pcssible distance down the river anc then dumping it to be washd ashore, is as unpopular as it is improper—- and more tian that need hardly be sas. The cremation of garbage was complained of by hundreds’ who livee !n the vicinity of the crematcry; even had it not been offen- sive to the olfactory sense, it was undoubt- edly as extravagant a metho! as could pos- sibly be devised. To burr garbage means to desttoy matter of g-ent fertilizing value; something that should certainly not be done in a region where the demand for soil-stim- ulants is as great as it is here. The Star has more than once made reference to the manner in which the garbage problem was solved in Detroit, where the waste material 1s collected and disposed of practically with- out cost to the city. There the garbage is collected by a contractor who, at a place distant some miles from the city, converts @ large percentage of his collections into chemicals that have remunerative market value. The superiority of sueh a method over the two plans that have been tried here ought to be quite apparent. When the contractor has to upset his collections in the Potomac or burn them in a furnace, it is to his interest to haul the smallest possible quantity, for it costs money to operate carts and scows and to purchase coal and main- tain destructive machinery; the more faulty, therefore, the collection service, the greater the amount of money in the con- tract. But when, as in Detroit, valuable commercial products are secured from stuff that is here thrown away, it is to the interest of the contractor to gather every pound of the wealth-containing refuse; the greater the number of pounds, the greater his profits. oe | The United States Veterinary Medical _ Association at its thirty-first annual meet- ing, held in Philadelphia, adopted a reso- lution condemning the “docking” of horses’ tails, and calling attention to the fact that nature surely intended the tail as the ani- mal’s defense against the assaults of in- sects. There is nothing new in the an- rouncement that the tail is a useful ap- pendage, but those persons who are ever vigilant to avert cruelty to animals will be delighted to have the duly-recorded support of such an authority as the Veterinary Association. The practice of “docking” horses’ tails is wholly indefensible. Some people try to justify it on the ground that it improves the horse’s appearance; it does not, it simply spoils the good looks of any horse so operated upon. 6 There is very little in the New York out- look to persuade Wm. ©. Whitney from the reticer-ce about holding public office which he has for some time displayed. —_—_~e + ___. For the first time, the name of Superin- tendent Byrnes has been mentioned as a possible victim of the Lexow Investigating Committee. Charges have been filef against police officers of low degre2, against ser- geants and captains and even an inspector, and there have been intimations that a Police commissioner would sooner or later find himself “in the snare of the fowler,” but not urtil Dr. Parkhurst declared him- self at a mass-mecting on Thursday even- ing did it seem as though the character of the superintendent was to be directly as- sailed. There ts nothing unreasonable in the position taken by Dr. Parkhurst. At the Thursday night meeting that most emi- nent of municipal reformers said: “I am here to endeavor to im S$ upon the com- munity the idea that the officers of the po- lice department must do what they are paid to d The Doctor objects to the superintendent's weakness for philosophiz- ing upon ethical questions. not because he desires to deny the superintendent the right to philesophize, but because the superin- tendent’s philosophy so frequently takes the lace of action. Continuing his criti- cism of police headquarters, Dr. Parkhurst sald “He Fs niendent Byrnes) said that the law resulating the closing of saloons was impossible of execution. whether ft is or not; ft hasn’t been tried yet. If it were known that the edict pro- ceeded from Mulberry street, backed by the entire power of the Police Department, there woukin’t be a front door or a family entrance open on Sunday. The Police De- partment can do everything that it wants to do. I want to see them try it. Two and a@ half years ago ‘there was some ridicule when I came out in the pulpit and said that we had found 254 saloons open on Sun- day. Weil, Mr. Byrnes, in his recent re- es has gone us 63,000 better. I discover the community a ripening conviction that it is time to speak out about Mr. Byrnes. In bis is credited with being if so much of cor- ruption existed without his knowledge. That he has failed to do his duty in the impor- tant matter of compelling obedience to the law which insists that liquor saloons shall be closed on Sunday is very clearly evident, and it may easily be that his inactivity in that matter will provide Dr. Parkhurst and those who are assisting him’ in‘ his ‘crusade with material.out.of..which,to construct an accusation that may give the superin- tendent at least oud uneasy Nalf hour. acts of men, women and children who. in- sist upon killing themselves by getting into contact with dangerously-leden wires. The most recent instance is that in which Off- cer Peter Difton of the Allegheny; ’Pa., po- lice force figured most. conspicuously. A heavy windstorm had broken a telephone wire, and one*end-of ithad fallen to the street. Properiy, but without regard for the feelings of those who declare the electrical current to be entirely harmiess, the officer endeavored to remove the loose end to a place where it would not be likely to catch in the clothing of a passer-by, but his in- tention was not carried into effect by Him- self, for he died immediately’ ‘The apparent- ly-harmiess telephone. wire..had, in the course of its fall, crossed an electric, light wire. Apologists for the current say that kad it been a dry night. imstead of a wet ene and had Dillon been standing on the sidewalk instead of on an iron grating, the chances are that he would only have been knocked down and not seriously hurt. Such problematical reasoning may satisfy hired setentists, but the public generally will not accept as extraordinary the conditions un- der which the: officer met his death. It is easy to imagine all sorts of “ifs” which m‘ght have prevented the awful happening, but the fact, nevertheless, remains that a heav:ly-charged and uninsulated wire put a premature end to Officer Dillon’s life. It may be more expensive to bury. wires than to bury their victims, but it Is also more hemane. ny It is whispered that Calvin Brice has ambitions concerning the presidency. If this be the case the question of how he will locate himself is an interesting one. ‘The temper of the democrats In Ohio is not very encouraging at present nor is tHere a prospect of its moderating with the lapse of time. New York is. pretty well occupied with David B. Hill's boom. There are few states of political importance which have not some man: who.claims their ellegiance. Mr. Brice’s best chance would appear to be in branching out as a pioneer. He might become North Dakota's favorite son. +++ -——_—_ The Philadelphia North American has reached the green old age of one hundred and ten years, and is-morevaetive mow than at any other time in all its lengthy exist- ence. Careful management and a continued Gesire to print all the news is responsibie for this decidedly remarkable case of longevity. The North American is now owned and controlled by Col. Clayton McMichael—it has been in the McMichael family for nearly fifty years—and under his care it promises to steadily improve upon the ex- cellence by which its popularity has been maintained. — +02 The management of the team which is to represent Washington in the professional football league is respectfully notified that at 12 o'clock on the 4th day of March next Mr. C. Buckley Kilgore, of Wills Point, Texas, will be a statesman out of a job. Kicking is by no means a conspicuous fea- ture in footbail as it is now played in this country, but is. it, mevertheless, wise to have at least one man on each team who knows how to kick. Mr. Kilgore fills that bill. oe Only in a ‘city’ wheré the police force is ecnsiderably demoralized would it be pos- sible for an organized gang of thieves to hold up a street-car and rob the passengers therein within a couple of squares of a police station. Such an affair came off in New York on Thursday night, and, although there were probably twenty men concerned, only one of the thieves has been captured. Occurrences of this sort may confidently be looked for in any community, where policemen themselves bid defiance to the law. Baseball enthusiasts in Baltimore are pre- Paring to give the pennant-winners a big re- ception on their return home. What will happen to the Washington team when it gets back is still an uncertainty, but it is hoped by all law-abiding citizens that the police force and the National Guard will be able to quell the threatening spirit which is abroad. Senator Brice does not consider himself bound by the free silver sentiments dis- played by the democrats of Ohto. This will give the campaign songsters a chance to do some fine work with “Silver Threads among the Gol > After the unjust affliction of the trial of Col. Breckinridge this community’ finds some slight comfort in the fact that his son’s encounter with the courts must neces- sarily oceur in Kentucky. +o It is reassuring to note that there will be no need for Mrs. Lease to give her personal attention to the rumors about discrimina- tion against women in the departments. ————— Unless Mr. Desha Breckirridge Is more careful in his use of the knife ihe authori- ties may fied it necessary to make him eat his Thanksgiving turkey In seclusion. —_—__ +++ — Mr. William Bryan, in editing his paper, should not fail to print-an-occasionai obit- uary noice of the late Thomas Jefferson, He was a good man, and deserved it. ———— When the republicans of the Third Mary- land District ncminated Dr. Booze for Con- gress, did they do it with the hope that the prohibitionist vote might be attracted? —_—_ ee If the Chinese had a baseball club we would te willing to make a small wager that the Washington nine could beat it. — <= A Hint to Mr. Carlisle. Frow the Philadelphia Ti If the Secretary means to give effect to the act of Congr authorizing the em- ployment of real architects for public build- ings, the artistic qualifications of the super- levising architect will be less essential than his professional training and integrity. He has quite enough to do in supervising.

In any case he ought to be an architect of unimpeacha- | ble standing. in touch with the splendid progress that the art has made in recent years. Such men are not looking out for situa- tions at Washington and are not likely to have much political pull. But it ts possi- ble to find them if they are really wanted, and we trust that the Secretary will take good counsel in this matter and that the President also will give it the consideration it deserves. There fs an opportunity for a great and much-needed reform, both finan- cial and artistic. . The past week has been one full of politi- cal incidents. The contest in Representa- tive Breckinridge’s district in Kentucky ‘was found to have been won by his young antagonist, W. C. Owens, by a plurality of about 270. The district central committee meets today to canvass the returns and select the candidate. It is expected to be @ mere perfunctory operation, though Col. Breckinridge claims. that he can produce proof of fraud in the interest of his uop- ponent. The New York republicans met at Saratoga and nominated ex-Vice President Levi P. Morton for governor. Gov.

Foreign. A great amount of fighting has been crowded into a few days in the Chinese- Japanese war. Near Ping Yang, in Corea, a force of 20,000 Chinese was wiped out by a Japanese force of 50,000 men. It is said that 16,000 Chinese were killed, wounded or captured. The Chinese were left without a foothold in Corea. A day or so later Japarese warships attacked, off Yalu river, a Chinese fieet convoying a number of transports taking fresh troops to Corea,und dispersed them. The Chinese succeeded in ‘landing the troops. One report says that they were afterward captured, but that re- port has not been confirmed. A number of the Chinese warships were destroyed. The rest sailed to Port Arthur, across the bay, tor repairs. The effect of these two en- sagements has been to make the Japanese inasters of the Corean situation for the time. A spring attack on Manchuria and a march on Pekin is now talkedof. News came of the failure of the Jacksen-Harns- worth polar expedition to penetrate beyond the 78th parallel. The season in the north has beea found extremely unfavorable for arctic exploration. Reports continue to come of the serious illness of the czar. Elections in Victoria, Australia, were un- favorable for the government; the tariff was an issue, the free traders opposing the government.

The orders designat- ing Fort Myer as a regimental post and directing a change in the station of the cavalry troops were announced dur- ing the week. Seven persons lost their lives in the fire which destroyed the manu- facturing establishment of Stumph & Bro. Adjoining property was injured by the fall ef the walls. A coronér’s jury investigated the circumstances attending the fire and reached a conclusion that no one was to blame. The public schools began their an- nual session with large and increased at- tendance. Frank Aldrich was brought back to this city from Detroit to answer the indictment of forgery found against him a year ago. Rev. Dr. Greene was elected temporary nt of Columbian Uni- versity in place of Dr. Welling, deceased; Prof. Montague was appointed dear of the mity. Oh, nature’s getting giddy now, As sure as you are born; With rouge upon the autumn leaves And tassels on the corn. Apprehensive. “I wonder,” said the man who worries, “whether there is any scientific foundation for the proverbs about water wearing away the hardest stone in time?” “Of course there is. Only it takes a tre- mendous amcunt of time.” “Well, they better work under cover on the new post office, then. If they don't, when they get ready to put the roof on, the showers of ages will have worn the founda- tion away.” Abbreviation is a good thing for a busi- ness man, but not desirable for a poet. A young man of this city set out to write about autumn. He got as far as “Sept., oh, Sept. ‘That month will I rept.” And was so surprised and embarrassed that he quit right there.

From the New York Tribune. Secretary Gresham has not been fortu- nate in his dealings with the belligcrent eastern powers. At the outset, he commit- ted the indiscretion of characterizing the action of Japan in language hetokening the prejudices of a partisan of China. He re- quired the American minister in Tokio to announce that “the Unite] States views with regret the levying of war by Japan upon a weak and defenseless nation like Corea.” That was an astonishing blunder, since Japan had disclaimed any intention of making war upon Corea; and it revealed the Stats Department's misplaced and offensive sympathies with China, when impartiality ond neutrality were the requirements of the on. Having made one mistake, Scc- Gresham had ar opportunity for re- ng it by cordially meeting Japan's overtures for the revision of the treaties. By taking precedence over European pow- ers and opening the way for their action, he ht have maintained the reputa%ion of nited States as the pioneer in conduct- liplomatic intercourse with that coun- y. Instead of doing so, he neglected to act promptly and decisively, and compelled Japan to negotiate its first revised treaty with Great Britain. ————~+ +2 ____ A Forgotten Hero, From the Albany Argus.
