E EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. «+ -- Editor. CHE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined efrculation of other Washington dailies. As a an@ Advertising Medium it has mo competitor. ‘Im order to avoid delays, om ac- = ibaence, letters = Stecca wn thet individual connect: ‘Bee, but simply to THE STAR, or to Editorial or Businces Department, according to tenor or purpose. Tt will be noted by those who have watched with considerable interest the prog- ress of the controversy as to Mr. O'Rourke's fitness or otherwise for the po- sition of supervising architect of the Treas- ury that the least possible reference is made to the professional demands of the office and that the only appeals made to Secretary Carlisle have been based upon the idea that the removal of Mr. O'Rourke at this time might work injury to the dem- ecratic party. The plea, however, was evi- dently unsuccessful, for Mr. O'Rourke has completely severed his connection with, the department and the official air is filled with rumors as to his successor. Who that suc- cessor will be no one knows, except possi- bly Secretary Carlisle, but the popular de- aire is for the engagement of a real archi- tect and for such a rearrangement of busi- ness in the architect's office as will pre- elude the possibility of the architect's being mixed up with political matters. The indi- cations, however, are not very favorable. From the east and the west come an- nouncements as to the candidacy of this man and that man, and the first and the last thing said in behalf of each is that he is a sound, uncompromising democrat, and has the solid support of the entire demo- cratic delegation of his state. It is un~- doubtedly true that Mr. O'Rourke was dis- missed becavse he and those who were as- sociated with him could not agree as to the spoils which the office had to distribute, but instead of the disagreement being a lesson to the superior powers it appears that they are now lcoking around for some complacent polities! architect who will in- terpose no objection to any scheme that Promises to reward out of the public purse those who have rendered purely private and wholly partisan services. The proper thing to do—and it may be that beneath the surface Secretary Carlisle is preparing Just such a surprise—would be to offer the place to an architect of architectural prom- imence who, although the salary is by no means tempting, might be persuaded to Tender the country genuine service as an architect and not as a spoilsman. na New York police circles are much agitated ever the public indignation consequent upon the violent assaults made upon innocent ¢itizens during the past four or five days by organized bands of highwaymen. Even Su- perintendent Byrnes permitted his tempera- ture to rise to the fever-heat of saying that the Lexow investigation was responsible for the outbreak of lawlessness in the city; al-~ Jeging in support of that statement that the Police had become timid about making ar- rests because they feared false accusation from those who might be eaptured. Very Preperly commenting upon this statement, Which the superintendent has ineffectually Attempted to deny, the New York World sa$s: “It is not Supt. Byrnes’s business to excuse crimes of violence, but to repress them. It fs not his part to justify police in- difference, but to correct it. It is not for him to resent the exposures made before the Lexow committee, but to Profit by them for the betterment of the service.” The World gees much further than this, however. It declares that by this statement as to police disinclination to make proper arrests, Mr. Byrnes has practically instructed his men that they may neglect duty without fear of thelr superintendent's displeasure, and that, im effect, he threatens the public with a Practical withdrawal of police protection unless the Lexow Investigation Committee ceases its reformatory efforts. Superin- tendent Byrnes, who is unquestionably one of the most efficient policemen that ever were a badge or twirled a club, should hasten, not to explain, but to prove by re- newed and extraordinary activity that the @ecidedly-foolish remark upon which so much comment is being baséd has been misconstrued. oe —__ The reports of Chairman Chapin Brown and Secr-tary George E. Emmons of the Citizens’ FExecptive Committee for the Knights of Pythias Encampment reveal a Satisfactory condition of affairs. After Faying all the bills, there remains a small balance which will, quite properly, be ap- Plied toward the payment of the deficiency in the prize money. The entertainment of the Knights involved an immense amount of labor, for which credit is due many citi- zens, but especially should it be given to Mr. George E. Emmens, who devoted to the work of planning and carryiag out of plans ® great many hours of valuable time. —_—__-e--__. The Washington Times calls upon the charitably inclined to contribute, according to their means, to a fund which the Times proposes to raise for the relief of several persons rendered destitute by the fire which took place a week ago and through which seven persons lost their lives. Washing- tonians are, as a rule, ready in their Tesponses to suggestions of well-doing; the Times offers them an opportunity deserving of prompt attention. ————+ ++ This is the time of year when the gentle farmer can pick out about any style of political devotion that hsppens to strike bis fancy. ——+++—____ Once in a while the people ef the United States are gratified with the information that somehow o- other this country has ac- quired prestige in a foreign land—has be- eome known to a foreign nation as a power that cares for its own and is mindful of its pledges to those whom It agrees to protect —but these occasions for rejoicing are few, indeed, when compared with the number of times when trimming politicians lower with their own hands the Stars and Stripes and then permit allen forces to trample upon the banner which patriot blood has sanctified. A dispatch from Zanesville, Ohio, recites certain statements which should be speedily and thoroughly inyesti- ted by the State Department. It seems that Frederick Sauer sone time ago left this country to visit his boyhood home in Alsace. There he was arrested, confined for five days on diet such as is here only given to refractory prisoners, and compelled to pay a fine of 60 marks because he failed, twelve years ago, to appear before the mil- itary commission of that district, although he had migrated to the United States two years prior to the date of the summons. At the time of his arrest Mr. Sauer had with him an official certificate showing him to be @ fully naturalized citizen of the United States, ard he also had a passport, signed by Secretary Gresham. Unless Mr. § has misstated things—an improbable pos bility--he would seem to have a good case against the German government the fact that important elections are soon to také place will materially assist Mr. Sauer in pushing his apparently-righteous contention to a conclusion, but precedent js hot favorable to his qiuse. Even now the Btate Department is being severely criti- eisel for its action adverse to Japan in the conflict that fs on between that nation and China. A dis; ‘nh from Tokio dwells at some lengt» on the damage which has re- Perhaps | sulted to the reputation of this country through Secretary Cresham’s disapproval of the action of our consul gezsral at Shang- hal, who had temporarily accefted the custody of. two Japanese students arrested in the French settlement of Shanghal as spies. These students had been at sehool in Shanghai for a long time, and when they got into trouble it was only natural that they should be handed over to the Ameri- can consul general; for the representatives of the United States are pledged to use their good offices in behalf of the subjects of each belligerent nation in the country of the other. “This position of tor In the twa éouniries,” says s the aispatch referred to, “has given the Americans an enormous prestige, as all communications between the Chinese and Japanese govern- ments on questions of neutrality and the like pass the Americin legation. The Chi- nese diplomatic and consular archives in Japan were left in the American legation and consulates. The Japanese archives in China are also in the custody of the Amer- ican officials. The American flag acquired @ new significance here. Business went on usual, the merchants of both countries relying on the moral influence and upright- ness of America. But Mr. Gresham's ac- tion has partly destroyed this feeling of con- fidence, ard Japanese merchants are flying back from China, while Chinese merchants here are getting ready to leave. The good offices of the United States are regarded now as broken reeds.” For the sake of the country’s honor, it is hoped that our status in Germany will be better than the one we now have in the war-disturbed portion of the eastern hemisphere. —__ + ++ ___ ‘Testifying befcre a coronér’s jury last week, an expert witness stated that the brickwork common in houses built in this city at this time is of average poor quality, the mortar used being especially defective This is a remarkable and yet not surpris- ing accusation, for so long as builders are permitted to use cheap material—frequently in response to the specifications of the Profit-secking capitalist—cheap _ material will continue to be used. It would seem to be entirely within the province of the build- ing inspector to examine, and, if necessary, condemr mortar of inferior quality, for mortar is one of the most essential features of building. Of course it is understood that the building inspector's force ts much too small to do the many things that may fairly be required of it, but that such a weakness Will be permitted much longer existence is extremely unlikely; the Commissioners are thoroughly awake to the necessity for re- form. The quality of building material should be subject to careful supervision equally with the plans. An architectural abortion may be more or less of a nuisance to critical eyes, but, after all, the appear- ance of a house is of much less real con- sequence than its stability. It 1s perhaps just as well that political affairs have been so arranged in New York as not to divert Mr. Depew's mind too much from his after-dinner speeches. Poli- ticians grow on every bush, but good after- dinner speakers are scarce. oe The fact that Mrs. Lease has had nothing to say about politics or masonry of late in- dizates that something else has monopo- lized her attention. Perhaps Mr. Lease hasn't been runing the drug store to suit her. —_—_—_+ e+ ___ Mr. Thacher may have certain feelings of regret that his own liberal spirit as shown with reference to the World's Fair cannot be displayed in connection with the New York gubernatorial award. —_—— res Mayor Hopkins of Chicago, in offering to bet that he had suppressed gambling in that city, confused the situation somewhat. ~~ ¢ = Li Hung Chang’s degradation has reached such a point as to justify insinuations that he is no longer even a good joke topic. soe Colonel Breckinridge appeared to have a certain artistic ambition to see the job thoroughly attended to. —_-~eo+—____.
