THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, AUGUST 13, 1894—~TEN PAGES. WASHINGTON, MONDAY........ secs Aupant 13, 1804, | enosny $ NOYES......... Editor. | THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more | thy the combined circulation of | the other W. oO ness Department, | Sorting to tenor or purpose. It is now easily possible that at this ses- | sion of Congress provision may be made | for the erection of a new Government | Printing Office building. For years there has been evident necessity and urgent de-| mand for such a structure. Thousands of | men and women have toiled day and night within walls that never were of sufficient strength and on floors that have protested threateningly against the vast accumula- tions of weighty material which have been consequeat upon the ‘steady increase of work. The dangers resulting from con- tinued occupation of the older portion of the present building have been discussed im and out of Congress for a long time, and reasonably-founded predictions have been made that unless remedial legislation was speedily enacted there would “some day be @ catastrophe far more awful and less excusable than that which a little more than a year ago horrified the nation and threw a@ pall of gloom over this city. As a matter of fact, the building which has been so urgently needed should now be complete, but, unfortunately, the very first seriously-made efforts to secure a sufficient appropriation with which to pur- chase a site resulted in a free fight be- tween property-owners with alleged availa- ble sites to seli. Since then the struggle has been almost continuous, and so bitter was the warfare that Congress itself be- came infected and unreasonable. The solu- tion of the problem now appears to be at hand. The House gave to the subject care- ful consideration; it decided that a site Fecommended by the Senate—principally be- cause of Senatorial or ex-Senatorial cour- tesy—is unfit; it wisely decided that tres- pass upon a government reservation should not be permitted; it decided that whatever of new construction ts to be ought, in the opinion of the House, to be immediately adjacent to the present building. The Printing Office matter has now gone into conference and ought soon to be definitely settled. It is evident from the vote that the House will not agree to the Senate Proposition and the Senate's duty is there- fore to accept at once the proposition of the House. Further delay in the building of a new office will be regarded by the general public as unpardonable. There is danger to fe and property every minute of every day and night in the shaky old shell in which at least two thousand government employes are now doing the best they know how to earn a livelihood. The Senate should promptly coincide with the action of the House and thus bring to a close a@ Congressional incident not overcreditable. > e-_—_—— In obedience to the President's well-known Gesire to have federal office-holders divorce themselves from active participation in po- litical movements, Naval Officer Barnes Compton of Baltimore has resigned his po- sition as chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee. The act was an en- tirely proper one without taking into con- sideraticn the President's views on the sub- ject, which, however, are to be commended as powerful incentives to cleanly politics. ‘The President may perhaps nave noticed that there ar2 in the federal service, and not so far away from Washington as Bal- timore, men who evidently believe that federal offices are to be used oaly for the advancement of personal and party inter- ests. Sometime ago President Cleveland saw fit to smish one of the platform planks upon which he floated into the White House by appointirg a non-resident as recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia. The ap- Fointment was unquestionably given in ex- change for services rendered Mr. Cleveland during the campaign; so the appointee is therefore to some extent justified in pro- ceeding, under the somewhat popular as- sumption that “one good turn deserves an other,” to pile up still greater indebt ness for the democratic party to par at the public expense. But will Presideat Cleveland make flesh of Barn. Compton and fish of C. H. J. Tayler? Se After a long ard seemingly-fierce strug- gle, the House of Representatives and the administraticn—which has been in accord with the House as to tarift legislation—have hauled down their colors and capitulated to the Seaate. The occurrence cannot fairly be regarded as in any sense sur- prising, for the influences against which the defeated faction struggled and, up to this time, struggled In vain, were known to be most powerful. The House has yet to take formal action upon the conclusion reached in the caucus, but that the sur- render ts practically complete cannot rea- sonably be doubted. The question now aris:s: “What will the President do?” Will he accept a measure which he has con- demned almost without qualification or will he veto it? ——+ +e _—___ If anybody can loose the Gordian knot fm the Senate, Mr. Gorman should be able to, as he has the credit for personal super- vision of most of its kinks. —_~+o___ Among the varied and elaborate dispatches from Asia it Is possible to deduce with cer- tainty the fact that China ard Japan do not like each other. ———~e-+___ Virginia's executive may have done what Seemed to him and his advisers to be the eminently proper thing when he used troops of the state to eject the Coxeyites from Rosslyn, but his action was so completely at variance with the method of treatment latterly put into practice by the District Commissioners as to provoke in many minds a controversy as to which is the right way; not the most expedient way, but the way most likely to be justified by fair-minded people who are conversant with the Coxey movement and with the charac- ter of those who have identified themselves with it. With the general plan of the some- what intricate Coxey problem many thoughtful citizens are acquainted, but there is great diversity of opinion as to how the annoying, if not dangerous, fungoid growth may be removed without the exercise of undue severity and yet so effectually that every root may be killed. The difficulty of satisfying one’s self as to the proper mode of treatment ts complicated considerably by the fact that the govgnor of Maryland proceeded to do what he believed to be his duty in a fashion differing entirely from } that adopted by either the Commissioners or Governor O’Ferrall. Naturally, tha Dis- trict taxpayers, upon whom Governor O'Ferrall has dumped the commonwealers, | are averse to the application of the Virginia | idea because it, according to the policy of | the Commissioners, compels the expendi- | ture of District money for which there are | many better uses—in fact, few uses could Le worse, but, personal considerations aside, they see something to commend in he plan which Virginia's govert.or has put Into operation. The “corgmonwealers,” no matter where found, e been nothing | more or less than tramps (the leaven of | tollers in the various “armies” not being | suMfictent to change the composition of the Bgeregations), and as such they tkre| = = treated by Governor O’Ferrall. Had the men displayed the least disposition to work, they would have received eyery considera- tion, but as they simply loa’ ‘ed and ‘begged and stole, and as to convict them of these offenses would have been costly and time- consuming, the governor concluded that eviction was the preferable remedy for a condition that never would have existed had there not been so much of political cowardice when the Coxey craze was at its height. Maryland's governor was much more considerate of the District of Colum- bia*than Governor O’Ferrall was, for when it was made piain to him that the Bladens- | burg Coxeyites were nuisances—idle vaga- | bonds—he caused the arrest of the entire crowd encamped within his jurisdiction, and now has them, and will have them for some tifme, at work on the improvement of the highways in the vicinity of the | Maryland House of Correction. In the Dis- trict, the Maryland method has been ap- plied In a few individual cases, but the general practice is much more liberal and merciful. Batches of the commonwealers have been shipped to the west, their trans- portation expenses being paid for out of District funds. It is feared by many that this latter plan will encourage large num- bers of worthless people who are in the east to move westward as guests of the local taxpayers, who -are even now carry- ing much more than their share of this burden. Legally, the District would seem to be entitled to some redress from the Virginia militia, for there is a local statute which holds to accountability and threatens to punish the person or persons who bring into this territory other persons Hable to become a public charge; if it be an offense to persuade vagrants hither, it is hardly ary less of a misdemeanor to force them within the boundaries of the national capi- tal. But laying aside all such considera- tions it is not easy to decide which of the three methods employed is the best one. The Commissioners are doubtless satisfied that they are doing the best possible thing under the circumstances, and as they must shoulder the responsibility for any possible ills that may follow their tender-hearted- ness, the public is not likely at this time to be too closely critical. The Maryland plan cannot be applied except to a limited number of Coxeyites on account of lack of accommodations. If the Virginia plan is selected the communities adopting it should force the Coxeyites back in the direction from which they came, not push them for- ward on the path which they have chosen to afflict an unoffending neighbor. In ac- cordance with the same idea, if the District plan of furnishing transportation west- ward is adopted, the commonwealers would logically and reasonably be shipped to Mas- sillon and landed upon Coxey’s farm. tee The great relay wheel ride between this city and Denver came to an end Saturday evening, when the last rider gave the mes- sage from the President's private secretary into the hands of the governor of Colorado. The result of the race was something of a surprise even to the most sanguine of its promoters, inasmuch as the 2,707 miles were covered m six days, ten hours and thirty- seven minutes, or a guin of more than thirty-seven hours over the schedule time. It every way it was a remarkable feat, and well deserves the attention which has been bestowed upon it by the military authori- ties, who see in the bicycle a possible aid of Great value In time of an emergency. The wheel can hardly be said to have made its successful appearance in actual warfare as yet, so that a consideration of its utility from this point of view is largely a matter of conjecture. What the race did demon- strate, however, was the fact that when Young America puts its shoulder, or rather its feet, to the wheel, Something has to give Way, in this case the record for such a distance. It inaugurates the great meet of the League of American Wheelmen under most favorable auspices, and centers the eyes of the public generally on the doings of the sturdy athletes now out in Denver. ——_~se Speaker Crisp is evidently of the opinion that it is net enough to know when to throw up a tariff sponge.
