8 THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. “THE EVENING STAR. Was HINGTON. THURSDAY - October 25, L804. CROSBY Ss. NOYES. THE EVENIN STAR ba: a regular and permanent circulation much more ed circulation of weton dailies. As a i er Wa «at Advertising Medi competitor, any individual connected with the fice, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editort: Business Departments, tenor or purpose. ‘The action of the Board of Trade last evening in adopting reports favoring the erection of a municipal building, a material increase in the appropriation for the sup- port of the building inspector's office and for the extension of the fire department service was in line with a public opinion which has been expressed recently in a variety of ways. As a body of representa- tive citizens the Board of Trade has siven volce to the undoubted sentiment of the people of the District in regard to these important matters. In addition to adopt- | ing resolutions the committees having these | several subjects in charge will no doubt see that they are properly brought to the attention of Congress and their importance impressed upon the minds of our legislators. In this latter branch of the work the citi- zens generally can lend a helping hand. As they meet members of Congress in a social or business way the opportunity should not be neglected to discuss these important public interests. In this way the members of our common council may gain a personal knowledge of District needs, which will be of incalculable service to the District when local measures come before Congress. The report of the committe: on com- merce, urging that the Board should do all | in its power to promote the development of | manufactures in the District, and the ac- tion of the Board in adopting the report, gave further evidence of progressive public spirit. The impression that Washinston | has no manufacturing interests has been corrected by the census statistics showing that in the number of manufacturing es- tablishments and in the value of the | products Washington holds no mean rank | among the cities of the land. However, a good many people are not familiar with |’ census statistics, and, what Is perhaps of more vita! importance, there is lack of “information in regard to the advantages which this city offers as a location for manufacturing plants. The Board of Trade proposes to adopt | an aggressive course, and a special com- mittee is to be appointed to take the matter under consideration and to report to the | Board as to the best means of bringing to the attention of those having capital in- vested in manufacturing enterprises the | facilities and the advantages which a loca- | tion in this city would afford. As was | brought out in the discussion at the meet- ing last evening, it is not designed in thus | adopting a policy of action to in any way bring about a change in the character of | the city. It is proposed that Washiugton should continue to be a desirable place of residence, but at the same time it is be- lieved that the expansion of the manu- facturing interests of the city can con- sistently continue. There is no doubt that such an organization as the Board of Trade can do much in the way of promoting an Interest, which has, without any coilective help from the citizens, already attained most creditable proportions. +e ‘The people of Washington are to be con- gratulated upon the action of the bakers last evening in reducing the price of bread to a point where the consumers can enjoy some of the benefits that accrue from the low price of flour. At a time like this one might as well be generous, and say that the bakers desrve credit for their action, al- though there Is no reason to suppose they would have taken it if it had not been for the agitation in The Star and other city papers. All along they have been protest- ing that if the price of bread were lowered there would be nothing in it for them. However, they have done it, and no one looks for any immediate business failure among the boss-bakers of Washington. In other cities, where wages are as high as they are in Washington, and other expenses of manufacture equally heavy, bread is retailing from one to two cents cheaper than it is here even under the new dispen- sation, and yet it has not been found neces- sary to start subscriptions for the relief of indigent bakers. If half a loaf is better than no bread it is equally true that a four- cent loaf is better than one at five, the quality and quantity being equal, and the bakers say they will be. It is gratifying to realize that the greatest benefit from the reduction will come to people of limited means, who are compelled to buy bread as they need it, instead of being able to get their flour by the barrel, and thas saving the difference in the cost of the raw mate- rial as compared to what it was in other . In The Star today ave printed a pr of letters from different cities, ng what the situation as to bread is | elsewhere. The agitation for a reasonable price for this staple of food has already spread from Washington to other cities. | A fair illustration of what good can be ac- | complished by newspapers enlisted in a | good cause is afforded by the cheapening | of bread in Washington. What the news- paper has done here will be done elsewhere, and the movement commenced in Wash- ington will bear fruit all over the- country. —_ roe — There were fifty-eight men at work on the city post-office building today. Accord- ing to calculations which The Star based upon the building record up to a month ago, fifty-eight persistent toilers might possibly complete the structure by March 4, 1887. Precise figures and the varying policies of the Supervising Architect's Of- fice will not, however, travel together in harness, so the prognostication is probably all wrong. The fairest estimate that can now be made gives Washington its new post-office on or about August 17, 1906. +42 Mr. Hill has shown his knowledge of ag- riculture to be something superior. Whether it is sufficient to enable him to hoe his own row in this election remains to be seen. oo McKinley will never be forgotten as the man who walked the floor with this country’s infant industries. — — There is nothing to alarm the people of Washington in the situation with regard to small-pox, which has made its appearance here within the past few days. Thanks to the advancement of medical science, this disease has lost much of its former terrors | for the members of the profession, at least. | Of course, there still lingers about the name | the most repulsive and terrify ideas, for | the peculiar marks that it leaves has stamped it as a loathsome pest. here the skill of the physician of today hand to reduce the chi of the patient's | being pitted with the sigu-manual of the disease. Nor is the scourge nearly as fata! | as it is commonly sup i to be. ¢ nursing and car l treatment combi reduce the chances of death very mat and It is to be rememb dise “1 that ther es constantly prevalent in Wash almost of worse tendencies that pass noticed through their familiarity and r tition. These include typhoid f fever, diphtheria and—amon; measles. All of these are more t in point of fact, than the small-po: {a much in the workt in | like turning that hinders the physicians in such an ex- tremity, and of all things the citizens of Washington should preserve their calm and do nothing to help themselves to contagion. Care and cleanliness will work wonders, and prompt and sure vaccination can be relied | upon to do much to prevent the disease. The health officer and his assistants are taking every precaution to confine the pest to Its narrowest limits, and there has been adopted a series of excellent regulations for this par- ticular emergency. A complete and cheerful compliance with ‘these necessary rules for the guidance of the city during the preva- lence of the disease must be given. It is now every citizen's duty to observe the ordi- nary laws of caution, and, above all, to do his best to preserve that equilibrium of temperament that is essential when there is danger of a panic. ‘There is no paaic now, nor will there be if all people keep firmly in mind the fact that small-pox has lost most of its terrors under the influence of ad- vanced seientifie thought. oe Every one who goes to the theater or to lectures, or who attends any public gather- ing, the pleasure gr profit of which Is de- rived in part through the organ of vision, endorses most heartily the’ complaint against the tall hat. As practically every one does attend som? such gathering the complaint may well be cailed a general public griev- ance. Many suggestions have been made in the columns of the “Star."" Some women have given quiet and practical hints av the theaters by removing their headgear upon taking their seats, thus giving evidence of their possessing the most essential element of what is generally called good breeding, consideration fer the rights and pleasures of others. The tall hat grievance Is one of those things that cannot well be reached by legislation. 1t is doubtful whether it can be made a penal offence for a woman to wear a great screen on her head, shutting off for those who are unfortunate enough to be st behind her the view of the stage, to obtain which they paid for admission, Those who have felt the bitterness that one tall hat can inspire in a whole tierful of play- goers may believe no punishment too severe for such a woman, but still there is grave doubt whether any remedy can be provided by law. © remedy to be had, and which it is ho} will soon be applied, will come through the action and example of sensible women. Gradually a custom may be es- tablished, and any departure from it will be regarded as evidence of ill-breeding. When one thinks of it there is really no act of greater rudeness than that of unnecessarily shutting off one’s view of the stage at a theatrical performance, concert or lecture, and thus preventing his enjoyment of the performance. In course of time—and no very long time—it is earnestly hoped such a public opinion will exist that an act like that described will be generally regarded, what in truth it is, as an impolite and rude thing, and a woman careful of her reputation for og breeding will blush to be caught in such an act, just as much as she would blush for any other breech of etiquet. ‘There are vary- ing opinio! arse, as to what should be done. it is wi yy a correspondent of |The Star that the big hat should not be worn at public gatherings at all, as their is and the mysteries of pi many fastenings, ibbons which men do not understand, make | it inconvenient, if not im: sible, to remove them. Such monstrosities should be, in the opinion of the correspondent, reserved for ive and the promenade, and a low- »wned hat adopted for the theater. These re matiers of detail, however. Good, women will probably find some uch-desired reform. ———— about ove and Life’ warrants in wondering how a little thing a pl ure to the wall in the should cause so much com- tall Hill Mr. — +0. if Lemuel Eli Quigg declares that if he is gress he will be in his his is a great season for tran- vice at jam has azine The poets of the univers? will re the manner in which Emperor W flung to the aty editor. a defiance —__- + -__—_- The free bread agitation has done a good deal, but there is no possibility of its making the loaf on the new post-office any larger. —_-- +e 1 that the King of Corea sleeps It is state in a folding bed.
