4 ~ THE E_ EVENING STAR. “WASHIN GTON,. SATURDAY... ‘THE EVENING STAR has regolarand permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation ef the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. * oi order to avold delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to ‘THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the of- ¢ simply to THE STAR, or to torial or Busiaess Department, according to tenor or purpose. — it the House of € Siapoeemnstives will only leal gfairly with its helpless ward on M y next, several hours will be devoted © the discussion of measures in which the Yistrict of Columbia is deeply interested. Phere are many bills worthy of considera- ion; many deserving enactment. Among hem, none is more conspicuous than the me which proposes to provide the people € this city with a free library. To make ‘nown any new reasons why the library sill should become a law is hardly pos- sible, for in the many arguments that have een presented to Congress all phases of the library question have been fully dis- cussed. Up to this time no voice has been zaised in opposition to the measure, and it * not at all likely that anything like con- *ention can take place as to the merits of the bil! in question. Framed carefully and with every regard for the best interests of the muititude, having as its object only the greatest good for the greatest number, she bill is worthy of unanimous congres- sional support. It is rather extraordinary ‘hat Washington has for so long been without an educational influence which is 2ossessed by every well-ordered town in whe country. Here are gathering the orightest of the literary and scientific and artistic lights, and -here, sooner or later, will be located the greatest of American ducational imstitutions, and yet there is sot in all the District of Columbia today « free circulating library, with reading <ooms open at night for the public's benefit. mn Washington the hours of labor are ‘fewer -han in manufacturing centers and the op- gortunities for study should be commen- urate with the time that could daily be *pplied to mental improvement. That the * vorkingmen of the District would appre- tlate this legislation is evident from the in- sorsement given the measure by labor or- ganizations; the District Commissioners, che board of trade and the religious bodies #hich especially seek to improve the moral status of mankind are ail on record as savoring this free library bill. Anxious to assist in putting the provisions of the bill to effect as soon as it becomes law are Many enthusiastic and public-spirited Wash- ngtonians; men and women who will see it that every benefit which the public sould possibly derive from such a measure ‘hall be made available as speedily as pos- “ble after the affirmative action of Con- ress has received the approval of the vresident. The bill should be passed by she House on Monday without the expendi- sure of ten minutes of time. ——__ += ——_ The prompt manner in which the Dis- riet Commissiorers have taken up for con- .deration the very undesirable condition of fairs which exists in the police depari- rent is worthy of commendation; there was ~ecessity for immediate investigation and is altogether creditable to the authorities hat they tuok the matter up without de- «ty. But tke people of the District of Co- /mmbia—while having a good deal of con- dence in those who have been appointed » be their executive officials—will net be atisfie 1 to have the investigation conducted 4 secret. There is no more reason for ex- cutive sessions in this matter than there ‘ould be for shutting the public out of or- 4inary sessions of one of our police courts. ¢ is already believed by many people that ome things in connection” with the police ‘epartment are radically wrong and this pinion will continue to be held so long as here is official endeavor to hide the facts rom the public view. There has already seen overmuch of consideration for officers sho have violated police regulations; fur- aer proceedings should not be in a dark- aed room and Wehind closed doors. Some £ the accusations made were testified to penly, no fragment ot sound reasoning <m be advanced in favor of a hole and cor- cer trial. It is already known that some of sose who either have testified or will be alled on to testify are, at best, but dubious sitmesses; their utterances on dath should © Made public so as to afford persons who ave information touching upon the cases pportunity to come fcrward for the pur- ose of either supporting or refuting the narges. The “star chamber” court went ~ut of business two nundred years ago. here should be no attempt to revive suca -\ pernicious institution at the capital of hat is frequently characterized as being ne most outspoken nation on the face of she earth. ——_ += —__ The House conferees place themselves at ~ disadvantage by their refusal-of the free ~ugar offer of the Senate conferees, just as 1e President did when he argued indirectly -er a duty on sugar, while demanding free eal and free iron. Public sentiment and Ne opinion of the House are more vigor- -asly insistent upon free sugar and the de- eat of the sugar trust than upon free coal © any other article urged for the free list. he support of free sugar in the Senate is so powerful. Senators have been de- ounced for bartering, trafficking, compro- iising and log-rolling, regardless of party fedges and the equities, in order to secure tariff measure which wouid be permitted » pass the Senate. The House conferees, * sprrning free sugar, on the bast of the flegation that a free sugar tariff bill can- ot pass the Senate, run the risk of being iewed in the same light as the “conserva- sive” Senators. ——__ rem _— It is true that in this war China will eave an immense surplus of population to epend on. But the surplus is a shifting mantity. It is not so long since this coun- «ty had a considerabie surplus in the treas- ry. —- +02] - The wisdom of devoting some of the peaceful hours to preparation for war has ften been exemplified, but never muca sore thoroughly than in this present war etween Chira and Japan. Shrewd, and ith an eye to what has for years been an asy possibility, the ruling powers in Japan ave assiduously, but without much ise, to make the Japanese army worthy its nate and to build up a navy such as sey believed Japan might some day have for. Capable Evropean officers were agaged to train the reacy-witted raw ma- rial in whieh Japan abounds, and the best European naval and ordnance products chased. It was slow work and ex- but that the investments made ere sensible and up to this time profitable sust be evident to all who have watched he recent course of events. In China there as been much of carelessness as to offense * defense and too much of confidence in ne strength supposed to be available in “thina’s tremendous population. To be sure, hina possessed ships of war and had a mall supply of feasonably-modern rifles or hef troopg fut neither the officers of he army por navy were anything like as AMicient as their rivals of today, while com- arisom between the enlisted men showed enchusively that the best material was the 4@panese. China's professional fighters zannot possibly be effective against such well-trained troops as Japan undoubtedly vas at its command, but there ts of course the parecer! of a victory through num- erical superiority. A recent dispatch from Shanghai says that the ‘mandarins draw pay for the troops of the peace establish- ment and turn over to the soldiers only a small percentage of the amount due them; that they press into the service, when there is necessity for an increase in the army, all manner of vagrants; that they have been sending to the front troops that would be much more useful as scarecrows than as soldiers. The comparison has been made ty observers in China that if anyone raked in one thousand tramps from any big Amer- ican city the aggregation would be no more disorderly and valueless in a military sense than the troops that have been sent to Corea to stop Japanese bullets. It is stated authoritatively that three-fourths of these very poor imitations of figating men have no arms except the old-fashioned weapons commonly used in China two or three hun- dred years ago. The Chinese navy is much fetter equipped than the army, but a navv in these days cannot move without fuel, and coal is scarce in China; it is plentiful enovgh underground, but the Chinese policy has prevented many very willing foreign and domestic companies from developing the rich coal-lands. Of course it nay be that China with her vast resources and Sreat population may bestir herself to such an extent as to crush her Japanese. ad- versary, but before that will de possible Japan will have made the Celestials pay very heavily for their lack of foresight. ————_~+ Among the many interesting topics dis- cussed in the New York State Constitu- ‘ional Convention was one over which’ there has for mary years been much disagree- ment—the question of capital punishment. A considerable proportion of the most in- telligent among mankind holds that the ap- plication of the death peralty is in no sense a deterrent; fhat in fact the effect of judi- cial killings is damaging to the public wel- fare, and in some instances has resulted in other murder. Several members of the con- vention have been doing a vast amount of missionary work in Rehalf of the substitu- ticn of life imprisonrient for electrocution or any other ‘method of applying capital punishment that the staté might decide upon, but when the anti-execution amend- ment came up for action it was rejected by a large majority. Some day social con- ditions in this country will have advanced to such a stage that capital punishment may be unnecessary, but that happy state of affairs does not, as yet, exist. All that is offered by those who oppose the death penalty is imprisoament for hfe—generally solitary confinement. At first glance this may appear to be more merciful than ex- ecution, but, as x matter of fact, such a punishment is more cruel than any other that can be inflicted, for experience has shown most conclusively that a-long term of solitary confinement invariably results in mental deterioration of the incurable sort, supplemented sometimes by raving lunacy. It would be easy enough to im- Prove upon the crude method of execution common in all of the states of the Union, Save one, but there is ro promise of pres- ent good from any proposition to abolish the death penalty; it might. reasonably be applied to other offenses than those to which it is now related—house-breaking in the night, for instarce. Conceding, for the sake of argument, that capital punishment does*not reduce the nun-ber of murders, it must be insisted upon that it does reduce the number of murderers, ——— ree The country is groaning under the uncer- tainty of the outcome of the tariff tight, but that is a small matte> compared with the misery felt by those who have been told, on the best authority, that Senator Quay has prepared, and is sill adding to another speech, which he proposes to de- liver in the Senate should the conferees de- cide to put either ccal or iron on the free ligt. A great sigh of relief went up from the weary ones when, on the night of the third of July, Mr. Quay obtained leave to print the remainder of the remarks he had been making for two months previous. It was then felt that a great crisis had been passed. But now, after all that has gone before, to learn that there are upwards of 209 columns ef the Congressional Record piled up in Mr. Quay‘s desk is nearly as much as the average constitution can en- dure. Yet, no one can help admiring the great art with which Mr. Quay’s speech stows to keep pace with the dange> of free coal or iron. Beyond a doubt, the Pennsyl- vanian has mastered the science of adjust- ing his remarks to the circumstances sur- rounding him. It now remains to be seen whether Mr. Quay will be forced to deliver his discourse. It is understood that Mr. Quay has served notice on the democrats that if the Senate bill is changed in any material particular, he will stay with them in a conscientious effort to acliver all of his speech, until the fourth of next March. This brings the country face to face with a more Serious condition than that precipitated by the late Mr. Debs. —_-+o_____ Mr. Hill manages, in spite of national affairs, to keep an eye on the rural post offce appointments of nis state.

The “Hawaiian incident” was finally closed during the past week by the action of the President in recognizing the republic and congratulating President Dole. Min- ister Willis had previously notified the re- public that he recognized the new govern- ment so far as it was in his power to do so. The Hawaiian commissioners, representing the ex-queen, are still in the city, but it is rot known what they are here for or what they hope to obtain. Mr. Boutelle aroused something of a stir in the House by criticis- ing the course of the administration in de- fiance of the Speaker's ruling that he was out of order. The attention of Congress has been absorbed by the meetings of the demo- cratic conferees on the tariff bill and the rumors of its agreements and disagree- ments. The House and Senate conferees now seem as far from agreement as ever. It was thought at one time that a settle- ment had been reached by the withdrawal of the Senators from insistence on a duty en coal, but the Senators subsequently with- drew their withdrawal, leaving things as far apart as before. In the conference, on the sundry civil bill the appropriations ‘for the Ford's Theater victims and for a ernment printing office were left out. ator Hill's bill for the exclusion Sen- of an- chists was passed. The House directed the judiciary ‘committee to examine charges of dishonesty preferred against Judge Ricks of Ohio, ‘The Senate passed a resolution directing the President to take steps for the release of American citizens contined in Cuba for participation in recent rebellions.

A bicycle relay race from Washington to Denver, to be completed in eight days, was startet on Monday. So far the riders'are many hours ahead of their schedule.

The Deendence of pester: From the New York Sun. Those dispatches that passed between the Chancellor of the Summer Schools at Chau- tauqua and the President of the Catholic Summer School at Plattsburgh were truly pleasant. In the rame of the Chautauqua institution the Methodist Bishop, John H. Vincent, sent greeting and good wishes to the Catholic institution; and the President of the latter body, the Rev. Dr. Conaty, im- mediately replied, expressing deep grati- tude, and sending best wishes to Chautau- qua. We say that this was a pleasant ex- change. We do not recall another incident of the kind. Bishop Vincent and Father Coraty spoke not for themselves alone. They spoke for their respective organiza- tions, one @f which is Protestant, while the other is assuredly Catholic. There is bigo- try in the land, we are sorry to say; far too much of it, we must confess. Yet it seems that eminent leaders of the two great divisions of Christendom can take each other's hand in good faith and exchange greetings in mutual good will.
