THE EVENING STAR has a regalar and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it) has no competitor. o7In order to avoid delays, ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR id not be addressed to any individual connected with the ice, but simply to THE STAR, or to Editorial B Depart- mefits, according to tenor or purpose. to participate in the board-of trade dis- cussions On the same plane as that oc- cupied by members of the board, and if they desire joint debate on some subject in respect to which they and the board differ, the proper line of procedure would ‘be to suggest some mutual arrangement as to time and place and hall-rent and speak- ers, and not to propose, with slight warn- ing, the conversion of a regular meeting of the board into such joint debate. It is, however, extremely desirable that in the proper way a conference or discussion be arranged betwgen representatives of the local labor organizations and the board of trade, in order that the objections to a bord-issue entertained by some of the workingmen may be thoroughly under- stood, and perhaps overcome, for no class of citizens will be so largely benefited by the proposed improvements as the wage earners. — =_ Irrespective of political cons‘derations, the people of Philadelphia seem to be mov- ing steadily and earnestly in-the direction of municipal reform. The mayoraity fis is now cn In the Quaker City and, unile: all the signs are delusive, it will be the most interesting contest ever known in that strangely-conglomerate center of good and evil. Both of the big political parties are Intent upon a better condition of muni- cipal affairs than now exists. In New York the struggle was between reform and the spoils system; in Philadelphia the peo- ple will have their choice of two kinds of reform. When the republicans met to nom- imate their candidate for mayor there was revolt against the bosses and before the” convention adjourned the candidate who was alleged to represent the combine that has ruled Philadelphia to its detriment for many years was signally defeated. Since then the democrats of Philadelphia have nominated ex-Governor Pattison as their representative in the campaign and now he comes to the front with a letter of ac- ceptance that wrings the heartstrings of every democratic spoilsman within the city’s jurisdiction. The Pattison platform is one to which all good citizens can sub- scribe, but ft does not differ very mater- jally from the platform upon which Mr. Warwick, the republican candidate, ex- pects to be carried into power. There is agreement as to the necessity for absolute separation of municipal affairs from state and rational politics before an honest, in- telligent, businesslike management of the city can be secured. Naturally, the Patti- son declarations are more radicai than those of his antagonist, for it is hardly to be expected that the republican candidate of the republican convention would go so far in discrediting previous republican ad- ministration of affairs as the democratic candidate would. Disregarding the profes- sions of amendment put on record by the republican convention, Mr. Pattison pro- ceeds to open up the fight in a very inter- esting way. Says he: “The letter and spirit of the law concur in demanding that the employes of every branch of the municipal government as Well as the employes of every municipal contractor shail Keep out and shall be kept out of party politics. If the continued disregard of this law resulted only in po- litteal seandals or in the control of one party or another by setf-perpetuating jynasties, the result would be deplorable enough. But when a decade of experience rroding has effectually demonstrated the c and blighting influences of this policy upoa the material condition of the first Ameri- city it is scarcely cause for wonder the spirit of revolution which has ed effectively in other localities should aroused here.” Mr. Warwick holds views that are twins to these professed by Mr. Pattison, but he has been a trifle slower than the latter in getting them as prominently before the public. Concluding his letter of acceptan Mr. Pattison once more jars the hungry spotlsmen who advocated his nomination by saying accept this nomination upon the ex- press condition and understanding that If it shouid be ratitied by a majority of our fellow citizens in my election to the chief magistracy, I will enforce the law with- out fear or favor or affection. Merit and merit alone shall be considered in making appointments, and no removals shall be made except for cause, as contemplated by the letter and spirit of our municipal char- ter. 1 will not only not pecmit the partict- pation of the officers an@ employes of the city government in politics, but I will ab- solutely prohibit and prevent It. With two candidates pledg2d to bring about practically the same end, Philadel- phians may have some difficulty in making up their minds which they will follow. It is subject for congratulation, though, that popular sentiment has at last compelled recognition of the incompatibility of muni- cipal business and partisan politics. ———__ 02 It is possible that one of the boats that will race for the privilege of being the de- fender of the America cup will be a keel | boat. Nat Herreshoff, the yacht designer, is responsible for the somewhat surprising rumor to that effect. He says that the popular idea of the typical American boat is all norsense; that it was a keel boat that brought the cup to this country; that we build keel boats, centerboards, steam yachts and row-boats, and In all of them we bave turned out boats which were at the head of their class. “Furthermor said he, “we build a good many center- board boats here to run in shallow waters. ‘That ts no reason why we should build such a boat for deep-sea racing. There are a great many things to be learned from the English In yachting.” These remarks and others of similar tenor made in the course of a recent interview furnished the foundation upon which rests the idea that ¢ n that ak ia A Philadelphia minister attracted a good deal of attention to himself last Sunday by dencuncing in a vigorous and wholesale fashion those who have been courageous enough to as3ail the wickedness—municipal and otherwise—which has a comfortable home in Philadelphia. This minister—the Rev. Russell H. Conwell—admits that some of the conditions in the Quaker City need to be reformed, but he disagrees with the rest of mankind as to how the reforming ought to be done. He insists that only good should be spoken of Philadelphia, and de- clares that the true man is he who “circu- lates good report, sees good things in his friends, sees good things in the city, sees good things in the state and nation, sees good things and is ever ready to proclaim the glad tidings of good things. The Bible commends a man for that, but it never commends a man for circulating bad tid- ings of bad things.” That is truly remark- able dectrine, and can issue only from a man lacking in not cnly worldly-wisdom, but the approved principles of applied theology. If it be improper to make public | the fact that Philadelphia's municipal gov- | ernment is in some respects as corrupt as that of New York ever was, then Mr. Con- well is logically forbidden to depict the horrors of sin; he wili be compelled to con- fine his preaching to eulogium of all that is good and saintly; he cannot consistently even refer to the misdoings of his fellows. The pulpit has not been free from eccen- tricity of utterance, but Mr. Conwell is unique. ——___+ += —_____ The canvassing of other cities for work- men by the Brooklyn trolley people leaves that community the positive prospect of a large addition to its unemployed popula- tion, whatever the issue of the strike may be. —_—___ ++ «+ = Perhaps it is just as well that past at- tempts to annex Brooklyn have not been successful.

If this should turn out to be so, then one of the points of international contention will be removed. As a matter of fact, the great cup races have not been merely between two yachts; they have been contests be- tween the Inglish idea—which has no re- spect for anything but keels—and the American idea—which asserts the supertor- ity of the centerboard. +o —_—_ thi otticial There were, according to reports, one hundred and fifty-seven men empl on the city pest-cffice today.
