Admitting, for the sake of argument at leant, that heads of departments are gen- erally the best judges of how the public business sheuld be transacted in their re- spective subdivisions, it is nevertheless quite reasonable to occastonally entertain a @oubt or two as to whether what seens best to the Secretary is really the genuine article. Two days ago the President signed the legislative, executive and judicial ap- Propriation act—a measure in which the congressional economist has put himself on record. According to the terms of the act, provision is made for the removal of nearly four hundred clerks in the War De- partment alone, but the dismissals will not follow the legislation in question for the simple reason that the dismissals have al- ready been made; many of them as long ago | . ethers in June, the remaint It fs not idle curiosity the asking of the question, “Why all haste?” when private employers of labor are strain- ing every financial nerve to pay salaries to the greatest possible number of those who have served them well, why should a gov- ernment official seek tq add to the prevail- ing distress by uncalled-for previousness? The Star has never advocated the creation of useless positions in any branch of the government service and has always be- lieved in the doctrine of business methods in the departments. But there are times— and this is one of them—when the prin- ciples and practices of common humanity should be given a chance to exercise them- selves in the government service. It is too Jate now to undo what has the appearance of being a great wrong, the milk—the milk of human kindness—has been split, but it 4s not improper to inquire why the ad- ministration should make cruel haste to forestall a Congress not inclined to be over-liberal. The political advantages ac- eruinz from such work will hardly repay the exertion. soe After suffering much delay and undergo- ing many changes in conference, the Dis- trict appropriation bill has at last been agreed upon by the representatives of the two houses and wil! probably become law within a day or so. Viewed from the stand- point of those who are anxious that the ational capital should be in every respect the model city of the country, the measure is somewhat disappointing; looked at in | comparison with similar legisiation for the past fiscal year it is fairly satisfactory. ‘The total amount appropriated by last year's bill was $5,413,223. this year the Sgerecate is $5,54H,500.57. The Senate Wanted to do very much better, and would, $f it could have maintained the figures at its own level of $5,887,088.57, but in confer- emuce the Senate had to yield nearly three hurdred and fifty thousand dollars. The measure is devoid of extraordinary features; Ro great municipal work is either inaugur- ated or materially assisted toward comple- tion. In view of the financial conditions mow prevalent the bill is, perhaps, all that could be expected. There are, however, very many people who believe that a liberal expenditure of municipal funds at this time would be the best possible public policy. toe There was eminent propricty In the ac- tion of the Japanese government when it notified its minister in London to apologize to Great Britain for the firing upon and sinking of the transport Kow Shing, which f#Ppears to have been flying the British flag when attacked by the Japanese cruiser Neniwa, but it must not be imagined that the apology is of the sort to be termed sin- eere. Policy elcne has compelled Japan to at ieast make an attempt to soothe the angry lion. Japan has enough to worry over in its trouble with China and cannot afford to have a quarrel with any of the European powers; it apprectates the pres- emt pro-Chinese tendencies of the English sgovernment—tendencies which might easily vesult In open interference in behalf of the Celestial contention. But however humble Japan may appear to be to nations whose smtagonism would be seriously damaging, there is 10 evidence of any intention to pow even the diplomatic knee to China; formal declaration of war gives promise of flerce and prolonged strife. —~eo —_— While the appointment of Coroner Wood- ward as Health Officer may have been some- what of a surprise to many people, it can- mot be said by any one that the appoint- ment has not the appearance of being thoroughly good. Dr. Woodward brings to his new position the energy of the young man, intelligent ability, and a desire to do apything and everything possible to him that promises improvement in the health of those who reside in the District of Co- lumbia. The office ts one of great import- ance, and he who holds it has opportunity to distinguish himself. Washington {s not an unhealthy city, but there {s room here for improvement in many conditions that effect the physical being of the people. — ee ‘The absolute height of impertinent inso- lence is reached In Coxey’s petition to Con- gress to make sn appropriation for the wupport of the gang of idlers he brought to Washington under false pretenses and then basely deserted as soon as he had gained the notoriety he desired. If Con- gress makes any response it should be a demand for that blatant humbug to come bere and march his deluded followers back to their respective homes, where, if they | want it, they can probably find something to do. There is no work and no room for them here, as Coxey very well knew from the start. Apparently reliable information from two | or three sources ts to the effect that many Ciinese residents of this country are hi tening homeward for the purpose of fight- ing Japan. Thus it may be that the war- fare which all humane people regret may turn out to be an important factor in set- tling the Chinese question in this countr! Now let those who are anxious to encow ege Joun to return to the graves of his an- cestors start out on a campaign of effort to awaken ali that is patriotic in the Chi- nese neture. — wee —— What appears to be a fairly successful encampment of a considerable proportion | of the District National Guard is now being | held at Marshall Hatl; other and minor en- campments have been or are about to be | held at various points. Such gatherings are as a rule of real benefit to the great reserve fowce upon which the nation places a good deal of dependence. But they fall short of | accomplishing the good which fs invariably | © psequent rpon an encampment provided fer by governmental appropriations. Dur- ing the past three years the expenses of en- campments held by various commands with- | in the local brigade have been defrayed by | the members of those commands, and as a | natural sequence there has been more or less of that variety of independence of thought and action which {s destructive of necessary discipline. With this fact in full! view—although it is less conspicuous in the Marshall Hall encampment than on any other similar occasion—it is matter for con- At a time | qe gratulation that Congress has decroseiniall the money necessary for a brigade encamp- Ment in 1805, ‘The cost of that camp will fall righteously upon thosg yhg a served the citizen-soldters and there the Work ....Editor. a Instruction will proceed without any of he sing and sem{-excusable obstacles Pretasz too commin in the independent camps. It must not be imagined, however, that such gatherings as the one opposite Mornt Vernon are valueless; there, daily learning to do those things which may some | day be of great value not merely to the in- dividuals themselves, but to the community ‘and the country at large. Major Suess ts entitle] to a great deal of credit for the in- erease of seriousness with which those in camp have applied themselves to their respective tasks. — ee Woman's fidelity to any animate cbject upon which her affections are set has been the subject cf much sermonizing, but every new instance, nevertheless, causes revival | of comment and is properly regarded as surprising. A few nights since one Thomas Connors, whose -residence ts in the city of New York, returned to his humble domicile and made the anger-inciting dis- covery that, owing to the abscnce of his wife, the customary evening meal had not been prepared. Just about that time Mrs. Connors appeared, and then Thomas p ceeded to express his disapproval of her household methods by knocking her down, kneeling on her and bruising her face with his fists. Only the arrival of Officer Weg- man saved the woman from serious injory, yet as scon as the policeman eadeavored to arrest her loved one, she, with all the fe- rocity of a tigres: ssauitei the policeman and did her utmost to p: at him frem haling her hu: nd to The cese none the less extraordina: : en others like it. man whose eyes were almost se of her husband's crue! 1 whose srdened knuckles, yet when an officer of y interfered to save was undoubtedly in danger—she forgot ail about her own injuries and procesded ct once to do her best in behalf of him who, but a minute or two before, was ensage! in @ sericus effort to mutilate if not to kil her. The student of human nature will find In this and kindred Instances material that will keep him busily engaged in thought until he reaches the limit of bu- man existence, and even then the mystery will not have been fathomed. ee The current number ef the North Amer- ican Review contains an interesting article by Secretary Hoke Smith on the resources and development of the South. Familiar with the subject, and eminently well fitte! to intelligently explain it to others, Secre- tary Smith has put together im a few pages of terse and truthful sentences, fortitied by powerful figures, a striking object lesson which may be studie* with profit by the economist and capituhst alike. There is no straining after effect, nor exaggeration, used as high lights in the panorama Mr. lth presents of the progress of his sec- n. He successfully proves the commercial supremacy of the free South over the slave South, and no on is likely to take issue with him for regarding the future of this great scction with most happy confidence. woe From the tone of the English papers toward Japan just row it would seem that the present disturbance in the east threat- ens to close the principal market for Eng- land's opium. a P In spite of Mr. Gorman’s assertion that a platform doesn’t amount to much, any- how, the Iowa democrats went ahead and adopted one with much enthusiasm. ——_ +e There would be general approval if En- gland would go so far as to insist that China and Japan fight this war in the English language.

Before the Capitol’s expanse the statued hero sat, With a look of anxious woe which seemed to say “Where am I at?” His hand appeared to tremble as it pointed to the sky, And a drop of rain had settled ‘neath his stony, staring eye. “Good sir,” quoth I, “it grieves me thus to see your gentle face So sad; with you no sentiment but joy should find a place; Perhaps you're thinking of the way that thoughtless folk compel The father of his country to sit out with no umbrel. And your garb! Perhaps ‘twas taken—tis enough to rouse your ire— Where they pay the highest prices for men's second-hand attire; You are scandalously scanty as to clothing, it is true— But there's never any telling what economy will do. . And your feet—there’s no intention of allud- ing to their size; But why should those majestic toes con- front the common eyes? ‘Tis cruel, when we hear the taunts at sockless statesmen hurled, To leave you without hosiery before the gaping world.” His lewerlng lip was lifted in a long and lingering leer; Then a great humiliation swept away the mighty sneer; And he muttered, “I was thinking of the shame I'm here to see; I was thinking of the ball club that was christened after me.” 77 ____ And Still Another for the Chinese, From the Detrolt Free Press.
