6 THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 380, 1895—TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘WEDNESDAY. CKOSBY S. NOYES.. THE EVENING STAR has a reauian and permanent circalation much more vhan the combined circulation of the othee Washington dailies. As a News @ Advertising Medium it has no competitor. : [7In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR sho: not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to or Business Depart- jo tenor or purpose. It is gratifying that Secretary Gresham has at last succeeded in securing for the United States a job as arbitrator; to be sure it is only a little one, but it is some- thing of a precedent, and if it is properly attended to it may result by and by in a more important engagement. Many of the tears that come easy have been shed, over the hardness of heart displayed by nations which were making faces at each other, whenever Mr. Gresham has suggested that this administration was in the peace-mak- ing business and would be pleased at any time to expound the moral law and to make plain all manner of obscure equities. The first serious effort—which was arbi- trary in character rather than arbitrative —made its appearance in connection with the Hawaiian difficulties that finally re- sulted in the birth of a new republic. In that case our government was rather dis- pesed to insist upon being arbitrator in spite of the protests of one of the dis- putants. Then there was a triangular dif- ference of opinion between Japan, China and Corea, which Secretary Gresham thought he could settle offhand to every- body's benefit. Lately there has been de- velopment of unfriendly warmth between Mexico and Guatemala, which was re- garded as another chance to hold the scales of justice with one hand and with the other choke off the dogs of war. In each of the cases named the republic has been snubbed; In every instance our na- tional repvte has suffered because we were toc anxious to meddle fn the concerns of others. Now comes this touching display of trustfulmess on the part of Italy and the United States of Colombia, both of which nations have declared themselves willing to have the executive powers of this coun- try combine to determine whether an Italian resident in the United States of Colombia did or did not misbehave him- self, and ts or ts not legally imprisoned. It seems a petty, police court sort of a case, but it is probably better than no case at all. ——_ ee Carrying more than a million dollars le: than the amount estimated as necessary by the Commisstoners, yet greater by nearly six hundred and fifty thousand doilars than the sum agreed to by the House of Representatives, the District ap- propriation bill has been reported to the Senate. The vartous items of increase are given elsewhere in The Ster, and not one of them can be attacked on the ground that there is no necessity for the enlarge- ments made by the Senate. The more con- spicuous increases are those as to schools, suburban sewers, country roads, the fire department, the health department and improvement of and extension of streets and avenues. With these important mat- ters, the Senate committee on appropria- tions has done wisely, and, doubtless, with as much liberality as could be expected while Treasury conditions are as unsatis- factory as at present. It is not appre- hended that any decrease will be made by the Senate, nor is it probable that the total reported in the bill will be made materially larger, so that the measure will Probably go to the conference committee in its present shape. What will happen in conference cannot be even guessed at, but it is hoped that the conferees on the part of the House will see how essential is the increase to the defense of which the Senate 1g practically committed. There is urgent need, in respect to several items, for a much greater experditure than even that which the amended bill contemplates, but the proverbial half loaf ts so much better than no bread that few will grumble. The Sen- ate committee on appropriations Is entitled to the thanks of the community for what, up to this time, it has done. — +02 ‘There was a time when District of Co- lumbia juries were credited with doing some extraordinary things in the way of deducing remarkable verdicts from testi- mony that to the general public seemed to be on the other side of the case, but there never was a jury in Washington wore properly subject to criticism than the twelve wise men of Gotham, who recently returned a verdict of $50 damages in a case where a boy had been killed by collision with an ice wagon. Judge Pryor, before whom the case was tried, promptly set aside the verdict, saying: “If the jury had found a verdict for the defendant I would not have disturbed it, as the question was pretty evenly balanced, but having found for the plaintiff, and having assessed the value of the life of this boy at $50, about the price of a poodle dog, I think the verdict should be set aside. I infer that there is no father on this Jury who wguld consider that the value of his son.” And public cpinion is surely with the judge. —- sree - Washingtonians will undoubtedly ap- prove the decision of the House Committee on the Dist of Columbia as to the change of route of the Fourteenth street branch of the Washington and George- tewn Street Railroad Company. The Star has insisted that so much of traffic on Fifteenth street, with a transfer system in eperation at the most crowded point, is @ menace to the safety of those who have to walk or ride or drive past the east front of the Treasury building; it furthermore insisted that the remedy would ke found in running the Fourteenth street branch di- rectly up Fourteenth street from Pennsyl- varia avenue. After careful consideration, the House District committee has come to that same conclusion and will, at the first opportunity, endeavor to put its conclu- sion into mandatory legislative form. The determination of Bourke Cockran to wo to Europe is a further reminder that there is no tendency on the part of Tam- many braves to jostle one another in a de- sire to get on the war path. see Mr. Cleveland's message dces not appear to have yet accomplished a great deal beyond mak.ng a very good leading edi- torial fur the Congressional Record. see Popular government for Russia is prob- ably thing more then an “absurd dream,” but {t seems poor policy for the czar to give public expression to such an opinion. He did it yesterday, though, in a speech made to a large number of deputa- ticns which had journeyed to St. Peters- burg to congratulate the czar and the czarina upon their marriage and to present them with appropriate gifts. In the course of his address he referred pointedly to the fact that at some meetings of bodies which act In an advisory capacity as to minor loca rs, “voices have been heard in- dicating the wish to realize absurd dreams about representative ZemStvos participat- ing in the general administration of the internal affairs of state. Let every one un- derstand that I shall devote all my strength to our dear Russia, but I am as firmly re- solved as my ever-lamented father to up- hold autocracy.” This rigid declaration, was, say the press reports, recelved with en thusiastic cheers, but it is difficult to be- Neve otherwise than that such a pronun- ciamerto will arouse the feelings of an- tagonism that have apparently slumbered since the death of the Czar Alexander. Russia's present ruler may attempt to pub- licly ignore the existence of sentiment favorable to governmental reform, but in his heart he must kncw, as do all sensible observers, that a considerable proportion of the brighter and better educated elements of the empire's population are hoping and watching for the coming of that day when their welfare will not be absolutely and Years ago people generally believed in the divine right of «ings and bowed without exertion before those who sacrilegiously were termed “the Lord's anointed;” today there may be a few such worshippers, but most of those who follow in monarchy’s train do so because by so doing they be- Meve they best serve their own interests. —__ + ++ —___ It is declared that Jerry Simpson regrets that he is not taken seriously. To some men it is a misfortune to have theories and ideas which they proffer with the most earnest irtentions lightly considered and even smiled at. On the other hand, it is a stroke of rare good luck for many men who are tossed into nctoriety by the tide of popular discontent to have their utterances gocd-naturedly contemplated as ebullitions of unconscious humor. If Mr. Debs could have persuaded the people that the railway tie-up over which he presided was funny he would probably not have been in jail today. But he went too far to permit his achievement to be classified as a practical joke and the result was dis- astrous, as the world knows. —_~ e+ ——___ Richard Croker sent fish to Tammany TicKnew’s Daily, Letter, 933 Pa.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal. All that the President says ts well and truly said; particularly what he says about silver. If'a free-coinage bill could pass into law, it would expel gold from the country. It would Mexicanize our cur- rency. It would not make money cheap, but dear. It would not make money plent: but searce. In a very little while, its au- thors would be engulfed by popuiar odium. Because of this belief, the Courier-Journal can not go that length in the vain hope of rehabilitating silver. For ten yvars, honestly, incessantly, we sought to do what might be done by legislation to do this. Silver went steadily down. Mistaken as we were from first to last, our pur- pose was fcr the best; and we have no reason to regret the earnest effort we made. But, we have reached a point where, in our judgment, to go further is to invite ruin. —___ +++ -___- The Wenther and the Law. From the Pittsburg Commercial Gazette. It is Interesting to note that a bill to pre- vent highways from being blockaded with snow has received favorable committee re- port at Harrisburg. There Is a tendency in many quarters to make light of the modern winter and to decry its rigors as summer blows compared to thoge of the winters of earlier years, but the experiences of the last two months have rather discouraged this practice. When means to prevent the drifting of snow in our country roads be- come matters of state concern it is high time to begin treating the modern winter as something else than a huge joke.
