THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. CROSBY S. NOYES........... - ++ Editor. THE EVENING STAR bas a regular and permanent circulation much more t the combined circulation of he other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. o7Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, Ictters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the of- ‘The action of the Senate in passing what is known as the Metropolitan Railroad bill clears the way for the speely enactment of this measure, which Is generally regarded as of great importance to the peopie of the District. It will be necessary now for the bill to be considered by a conference com- mittee of the two houses and the prospect for final action at this session is favorable. As the bili in ali its various phases has been thoroughly discussed in and out of Congress, its provisions are familiar to the public. It is sufficient to say in a general way that the company is required to equip the road with an undergrouad system of Propulsion within a reasonable time and that the question of the long standing in- debiedness to the District is referred to the District Court of Appeals for final ad- Judicatioa. In one sense this straightening out of the legal tangle of the affairs of the com- pany is a matter chiefly of interest and value to the corporation concerned. But the bili has a much wider scope. When the present inadequate service provided by this company and the daily loss of time and personal discomfort to which its pa- trons are subjected are considered, a bill like this offering a prospect of a first-class modern equipment for the line wiil be gen- erally recognized as taking rank among the most important measures affecting the interests of the people of the District. The Prompt action of the Senate deserves grate- ful public acknowledgment. Senator Me- Millan had charge of the bill and no doubi its passage Is largely due to the confidence reposed in him by his associates on both sides of the chamber, based on his practical knowledge of railroad affairs and his fair- ness and intelligent energy im serving the best interests of the people of the District. see Several propositions have been presented in Congress since the labor troubles be- gan to attract general publiie attention, looRing to the provision of means for set- ling labor disputes and bettering the con- dition of the working people. Representa- tive Phillips of Pennsylvanta now comes forward with a proposal more general In its character than any of the others. It in substance, to create a non-partisan com- mission, composed of representatives of the varlous interests affected to investi- gate questions p2rtaining to Immigration, to labor, to agriculture and to business, and recommend to Congress such legtisla- tion as it may deem best upon these sub- Jects. One good result that might be ac- complished by such an inquiry would be to correct an erroneous impression that many of the ills of which workingmen complain ean be cured by law. An earnest inquiry by thoughtful men might result in im- pressing upon the country many whole- some and valuable truths. Whenever times are hard vague notions seem to prevail that Congress cam restore prosperity by legislation. When workingmen feel that they are unjustly troated they, or some of them at least, seem to belleve that the government is against them because it does not enact some law in their behalf. This commission might make it plain just how far law can go In such matters, and if there are any wholesome laws which it can Propose that are consistent with the Amer- ican principles of Wherty, and which prom- ise to better the condition of the people, @ much the better. —-- e+ The establishment of the republic of Hawait fad already set some nex precs- dents In diplomacy. Recent advices from the fslands, printed in yesterday's Star, Indfeate that the republic is progresstys in that respect, and is opening new fields of research for the student of international law and comity. The British minister resi- dent seems to have made an error in not considering that the “attit of reserve” or “state of neutrality” wi he had as- sumed applied as well to the legation hea as to himseif. Eggs iald by this hen were sent, it appears, to the deposed queen, and Rone were sent to the head of the new gov- @rmment. The minister's demand for pro- tection from newspaper criticism growing out of this egg Incident led to an inquiry as to his status, and the Hawaitan govern- ment has made ft very plain that neither Englan‘{’s minister nor his Rea can expect ony diplomatic privileges, while choosing t hold themselves in an “attitude of reserve. The facts will probably all be duly con- sidered by the Dritish forcign office, and the accumulated wisdom of a thousand years of diplomacy wtil be brought to bear upen that hen. ——3 oe It ts among the pos-Ibilities that a jill Will be introduced in Congress before the present session closes, provilims for the es- tablishment of a national park, a mihtary d a natfonal seldiers' hom> on the IA of Gettysburg.

The objection to a guest sitting In a chair with his feet ele- vated above his head, would probably be found to rest in the Mability of the individ- ual to tip over and break his back, and other hygienic reasons would possibly be discovered at the root of the rules which taboo other reprehensible habits from prac- tiee in good society. ———————— The Goulds have begun what may be an important suburban movement in New York, in order to escape the personad tax. They claim residence now outside the city, and on that account contest the claim made against them for taxes due on $10,069,000 of persona! property. They pro- test against the assessment as exorbitant. ‘Of course, the Goulds are not likely to have any large amount of popular sym- pathy, for popular sympathy, a3 a rule, does not go out to the rich in such matters. The case, however, will call attention again to the inequality and general injustice of the personal tax system. The assessors were able, or believed they were able, to ascertain the amount of taxable person- ality held by the Goulds through the record made in court in settling up the estate of Jay Gould. it may not be that the Goulds are assessed at an exorbitant figure, but the injustice Hes in the fact that thousands of uther New Yorkers have to be taken at thelr own rating or escape taxation a!to- gether. What is needed is a system of taxation, easily operated, that will distrib- ute equitably the burden of sustaining the government. ——_+ «+ —___ The desperate struggle between the Wil- son tariff bill and the Gorman tariff bill is interrupted by the vigorous and unex- pected intrusion of the Cleveland tariff bill, which remarks loudly that it can whip both of the other combatants. The Wilson bill, which is getting rather the worse of the original encounter, welcomes the interfer- ence, while the Gorman bili fumes with in- dignant resentment. The characteristics of the Cleveland tariff bill are free coal, free fron and a duty on sugar. This incident marks the beginning of an- other round in the fight for political suprem- acy between a democratic President and a democratic Senate. Is the President to be eredited with another victory? ——- wee - Washington shows a good deal of faith in Totomac water notwithstanding the intima- tiens occasionally made that it is not as cod as it ought to be. During the past year there has been much agitation on the subject of the condition of water. Col. Eliett’s report shows that during the month of June last the consumption ef water was more than two million gallons greater than that ef June, 1893, and the consumption of June, 1898, broke all previous June records. The especia) significance of the figures, how- ever, is that they emphasize the necessity for measures to increase the water supply. —— 202 - Mr. Cleveland apparently has not the slightest hesitation In assuming to be bet- ter than the portion of his party to be found in the United States Senate. oe ‘The advertising department of the Wash- ington base ball club evidently has a long option on one line at the bottom of the columa. ———_~ ++ ___ It is now feared that Liliuokalani will try to utilize her ebsolete title in coming over to this country and marrying a for- tune, oe It is hoped that both Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Hill can uote with equanimity the fact that they come exceedingly close to agree- ing.
