To this end many bills have been iniroduced in Congress, but through adverse combina- tiens, in which public listiessness and fac- tional opposition were features, none of the -measures submitted to the national legislature ever got favorable considera- tion. Recegnizing the dangerous laxity of law as it now is-it might reasonably be is no law—and realizing in cendition a continuous health, and to his said that there that remarkable menace to the public own administration, Dr. Woodward has framed a bill, which, if it becomes a law. will, he beiieves, meet all the requirements. ‘The provisions of the bill have been given in The Star. There is no appearance of harshness in the measure, nor can it be seriou: alleged that its operations would werk injustice. Some of the propositions are radical, but they would not seem so were it not that there has been complete ce of anything like public control of tter that affects the p This community has suffered much through the tenorance and carelessresa of medical practitioners who somehow ceeded in getting hold of real or f @plom but who were nevertheless not qualitied to treat licate a piece of mechanism as the human body.

The people of Michigan have every reason for being satisfied with the action of the « 3 which will. of course, be sInture, which is merely der another name—and there can he nothing but rejoicing among those who have at heart the best interests of the national capital. From the day of his first appearance in the Senate to the present time Senator McMillan has been one of the best friends the District of Columbia ever had in Congress, and it fs but reasonable to ine that during his second term he will ally apply some of the valuable ex- ce in local matters acquired by him while chairman of the Senate District com- mittee, and—since democratic reorganiza- tion—an active worker in the ranks of that very important su anization. Senator n has planned to do great things ing to permanent improvement of this the seat of government. Some of the et out to do are yet unac- it that the plans will be per- sumulate dust is not at all ator has all the tenacity the iy successful busine: man; t omits from its cal tieas the pos: of defeat. W Will\be delighted te have McMillan with it and of it fer at least six more years. zee There is something horrible in death from starvation when tne victims succumb in regions far frem the haunts of men and under circumstances that render relief al- most impossible, but the horror is magni- fied many times when hunger snatches its prey from the midst of a community in which there Is plenty and a vast quantity ef that spirit which makes the plenty available in eases of distress. That two peo: should be overtaken by cold and want in a prairie dug-out would not be surprising, but there is something awful in the fact that a woman and her son should die within this city for lack of a little food and a trifling quantity of fuel. Such ex- treme cases as that referred to are grati- fyingly rare, but it seems as though our should be so systematized and so pperted as to render impossible an ee like that to which reference 1 made and which was described work on the construction of t effice building yesterday—the first working day of the new year. The old-time calcu- lation would have it that twenty-seven men might complete the structure by Oc- tober 2, 190%, but experience has shown conclusively how uncertain figures are. ee This country may sometimes be slightly tardy in catching up with some matter of diplomacy or finance, but when it comes to a criticism involving mingled questions of art and morals it invariably distinguishes itself. city post oe Mr. Addicks has still some experiments sfore him in demonstrating the merits of gas as a political motive-power. —— wee An architectural commission Is one of the ions consequent upon popular dis- tion with the methods of the super- architect's offic ng to those who advocate reform bureau to knew that the measure is being urged upon Congress has pproval and the support of Secretary Carlisle. roadly, the proposition looks to the constitution of a commission, of the highes: pessible character, which shali have eharge of the government's architectural work—a consummation for which there has been much pleading and a great deal of agitation. The bill is being actively ad- vocated for reasons that may not logically be assailed; reasons which were made plain in the news columns of The Star yesterday. ‘The committee which is pushing the meas- ure say for it that it fs purely administra- tive in its character; its object is to correct an inefllcent system which was instituted years ago, and which has become not only obsolete, but positively pernicious. It does not interfers with the present system, in so far as that system Is efficient, but tends to relieve the present system of a burden to which it fs not equal, and to enact Proper measures to provide for this part of the work. This Congress seems to have taken a good deal of pride in economical Practices, so this bill should appeal strongly to the money-savers; there is no asking for appropriations, but instead there is as- Burance that the operaticns of the vising encoura in the which the and it is decidedly - would -esult in great saving of money and ia werderful elevation of the character jf government architecture. There is | nothinss revolutionary in the measure so far as the efficient force of the supervis- ‘ing architect's office is concerned. There is nothing unreasonable in the contention | of those who are supporting this bill that | construction under its provisions will be e thirty per cent cheaper, that the ee Pp od of the erection.of govern- | ment iuildines will be reduced fully three | years and that in many other ways con- ditions will be materiallf bettered. Friends nt are very emphatic in de- ne that reliable figures indisputably monstrate that with this bill in force the will have better buildings and less buildings and buildings more avulable for use than ts the under present conditions; a rational custem estimate is that the saving in cash would amount to at least one million doliars a ar. With our city post-oiice building fere its eyes, and with far too many ur examples ecattered throughout the Congress shouid have no difficulty whatever in reaching a «onclusion favor- 2 to the architectural commission bill. ——._ + ee _ A dispatch from St. Petersburg says that the resirement cf M. Krivoschein, minister of ways and communications, is in conse- quence 68f his connection with the con- tracts for railroad ties, the material for which vas obtained from M. Krivoschein’s estate. When the minister of finance dis- covered this scandal M. Krivoschein was requested to resiga. Semi-barbarian Rus- sia is much too sensitive as to these mat- ters. In this country M. Krivoschein’s lit- tle deal :n tie-timber would simply be evi- dence of smartness. If a trifling transaction in Iumber could cause so much trouble, what would the Russian government do in case two or three of the most prominent offi- cials shovld interfere to prevent the con- struction of a secure government building in place of a rickety old shell (that threat- ens thousands of human lives) simply be- cause there was promise of great financial gain should the interference result in the selection of a site in which the prominent officials wer2 personally interested? M Krivoschein, discredited at home and thrown out of a job, had better migrate to the United States and with the proceeds of his lumber deal buy himself a seat in the Senate. He would there find more than one kindre: The jockey who was ruled off the Alex- ander Island track for “pulling” a horse which he had been hired to ride has no cause for complaint; his punishment was How long will it be before tand that they must not go | into the “pulling” business on their own | account? How many times will jockeys have to be ruled cff the Alexander Island track before they realize that horses must not be “pulled” unless orders to that eect come directly from headquarters? The “sport of kings” has degenerated sadly enough in recent years, but it will descend into unfathomed depths if irresponsible rid- ers are permitted to exercise their own judgment and thus smash the carefully- planned schemes of the bookmaking fra- ternity and of those who profit by the inner operations of the betting ring. The Alex- ander Island management did well when it sat down hard upon the jockey’s iconoclas- tie departure from long-established custom; the m nor characters on the turf have no right to be crooked on their own account. ———_ wee How much will a free pass on a railway buy? That is the question which suggests itself when legislators, judges and other persons *holding positions of high public trust are known to be carrying around a pocket full of them. On this point read what the Presi lent of the New York Cen- tral railroad says: “All but ten members of the late Con- stitutional Convention rode on personal passes granted by myself, and as an ex- ample of gall some have written to have their passes extended into the new year.” It is difficult to conceive a statement more shamefui than this,—one more dis- creditable to the persons involved or more discouraging to those who hope for honesty and purity in public officials. oo New York proposes to prohibit both horse- racing and railway passes. This will pro- vide for more walking home from Albany and less from Guttenberg. —- +02 — Texas will point with pride to the state- ment made by a trust official that the Lone Star State is not much of a market for cigarettes. —___ wee The imbecile who rocked the boat is now superseded by the man who wants to see how close he can skate to an air hole. —___ +02 Captain Schmittberger begins to feel that he confessed not wisely, but too well. ——_+ +o SHOUTING STARS, On Pennsylvania Avenue. “But that's another story,” said the man whose ideas drift. “No,” replied his companion, who hap- pened to be looking at the new post oftice, “that’s the same old third story that they have been working on ever since I have been in the city.” After the Holiday. “Farewell”—most mournfully he spoke— “Tnou great and glorious institution; Myself and all I know are broke— Aye,,e’en my New Year's resolution.” “Daa ain’ no doubt,” said Uncle Eben, “bout contentment bein’ better’n ches.
