6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. TUESDAY... . October 30, 1894. CROSBY 8S. NOYES...... .Edltor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. (In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to ected with the of- THE STAR, or to After what has doub‘less been an enjoy- e@ble and beneficial vacation, President Cleveland is once more at the seat of gov- ernment giving personal attention to such detafis of the public business as demand ex- ecutive consideration and action. Chairman Procter of the Civil Service Commission is also In town, and it fs quite likely that at the earliest possible moment the Civil Ser- vice Commissioner will cail upon the Presi- dent and lay before him certain propositions known to have been subjects of recent dis- cussion by the C--nmission. First among the matters to which the presidentlal atten- tien will be directed, is the cose of Charles H. J. Taylor of Kansas, a colored man who was appointed recorder of deeds for the Dis- Srict of Columbia as a reward for services gendered io Mr. Cleveland when he was a Presidential candidate. As soon as possible after assuming chi of the recoriler’s of- fice, Taylor revealed himself as a purely- partisan public servant—an anachronism possible only in this enlightened country. Whenever it could be done, he used his posi- tfon to frighten campaign contributions out of othr government employes. The whole truth was made plain ip The Star some time ego, and since then the Commission has gathered together testimony sufficient to make convicticn easy. The Commission has made up its mind that Taylor is unfit to hold public office, and it has, consequently, asked President Clevelaud to remove him. It was not likely that the President would do anything with the charges while ae was away on a vaéation, but now that he has returned to his desk a verdict and its con- sequences may be looked for quite soon. ‘Then there are other matters of local and general interest, as to two of which the Civil Service Reform of this city has aiready taken action—the extension of Civil Service rules to the District government and the Government Printing Office; the protection of custom house employes is also regarded as extremely desirable. Washington, of course, is personally concerned as to the District offices and the Government Print- Ing Office, and while a minority~strong- lunged and vociferous—may object to any move that makes less valuable the spoils of war, a great majority will applaud anything that is done to improve preseat conditions. It has been asserted that the application of civil service rules to the Goverament Print- ing office would be impossible, but no one has ever tried to present anything that looked like a rational argument on that side of the question. As a matter of fact, there need be no difficulty at all in framing and putting into effect rules that would permit only efficient workers to obtain ap- pointments in the government's big print- Ing office and bindery. All the tests could be, and doubtless will be, thoroughly prac- tical; the only persons who could object to them would be those politicians who, for selfish purposes, desire to have the doors wide open, and those others who, lacking “What should be the necessary qualifica- tions, would be debarred from drawing salaries they could not honestly earn. The Star has, for a long time, contended for such extensions of the rules as are herein indicated, and {t, In comon with all be- Mevers in good government, hopes that the presidential order wili not be long delayed. —— When The Star commenced its agitation for reduction in the price of bread without any falling off in the quality of that staple, there was no intent to operate in any but the local field. That, however, was culti- vated diligently and successfully, for, after stubborn resistance, most of the local bakers are now selling their best bread at figures that are twenty per cent lower than they were before the agitation commenced. The aggregate public gain is very consider- able and yet no injustice ts being done those who operate the bakeries, for flour—the principal material—costs less than it did four or five years ago. Washington's vic- tory over what was unquestionably a bakers’ combine, is dojng good service in most of the big cities of the country. At present the contagion of agitation is most apparent in New York, Philadelphia and Chicago, and, unless all the signs fail, five- cent bread will soon become a thing of the past in those places; the same article being retailed for four cents. The New York World is taking strong and unassailable ground in behalf of the people. It argues that “the state has no right to say how much bread any man shall sell another for a dime, but it has a right and it ts its duty to inquire whether there is a conspiracy to take advantage of the buyer and defraud him by combining against him so as to de- prive him of all freedom of trade.” If the bakers in Washington can supply a high grade quality of bread for four cents per pound, the same thing can be done by bakers in any other American city. ——- +028 ‘There were fifty-six men employed.on the city post-office building today—the same rumber as yesterday. If The Star's original calculation—most favorable to the Super- vising Architect and the contractors—would only hold good, then fifty-six men might complete the structure at as early a date as April 1, 1897. Such speedy construction Is pot, however, to be hoped for, as things are foing now. The best to be expected is that stamps will be sold in and letters mailed at the new post-office by August 17, 1906. It Js two years, eight months and ten days since work was first commenced. —_—seo_——" In appointing Mr. James P. Willett as city postmaster Presideat Cleveland has pleased ® great many Washingtonians, has put himself In harmony with the “home-rule” policy, to defend which he pledged himself, and has delighted the many who believe that official prominence should be conse- quent only vpon political activity. Mr. Willett is one of the most popular of the city’s business men, and will doubtless prove himself a thorovghly capable post- master. He will find the office in excellent condition, and under his administration it Is not likely to deteriorate. + 2+ —_—_ In just a very little more than a week the grand chorus of “I told you so” will be due. —_ +s —_- More conspicuous than any of the other recommendations made by Assessor Trim- ble in his annual report—published in The Btar yesterday—is that which urges repeal of the law by which personal property in the District of Columbia is taxed. Mr. Trimble says that “a strict enforcement of the law ts absolutely impossible without a material increase in the clerical force, but rather than to ask an increase of the force for this purpose, I would much prefer to pee the law repealed.” Mr. Trimble might have gone further; could have said much more in fewer words. He would have been well within the bounds of truth had he faid “a strict enforcement of the law is absolutely tmpossible."” There is the closest sort of relationship between the tax on personal property and the much-abhorred fncome-tax. The assessor says very plainly: “It ts difficult to divest a tax of this acter of unjust and inquisitorial f« THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 80, 1894—-TWELVE PAGES. : and equally difficult to make an assessment poe gph maar? i bea eo oor ny et ciple, It invites perjury.

The amount of revenue resultant from the tax is but Kittle, and could, as Mr. Trimble suggests, “easily be made up on a revision of our license laws, which would avoid the necessity of prying into the private affairs of our cit!- zens and compelling them to divulge under oath the depreciation in their household effects.” The Commissioners should trans- mit to Congress, with favorable indorse- ment, Assessor Trimble’s recommendation. ——_+-e____ Members of the news-gathering and news- -disseminating profession who have been riding themselves on the exceptionally high average of honesty maintained by the corps at Washington are naturally indignant at the alleged misconduct of a New York jour- nalist who stands accused of conspiring with the Sugar Trust to influence publica- tions in and from Washington by means of bribery. That such a thing has been done in times gone by is true, but the wrong- doing was only by one or two persons, and was condemned most vigorously by the great body of newspaper workers located here. For many years there has been no such atrocity as that outlined in yesterday's Star, but there is some consolation to be found in the fact that rascality is attrib- uted to but a single individual. It is a work largely of supererogation to speak in terms commendatory of the newspaper writers whose field is the District of Columbia. With few exceptions they are possessed of much more than average ability, and as to probity can safely be compared with any equal number of persons in any other trade or profession. The man who enters into a contract to enslave their consciences and sell their pens deceives only those who are foolish enough to deal with him. It will be a sad day for the people of the United States when the members of the congres- sional press galleries are controlled by im- purg motives; today they do more than all other powers combined to compel legislative and executive honesty. ———_++-—__.
