6 THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY i, 1895—TWELVE PAGES. a = — THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON FRIDAY. February 1, 1895. -Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regetar and permanent circulation much more vhan the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7Im order to avoid delays, on a vant of personnl absence, letters to not be addressed 1 connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- Mens, according to tenor or purpose. to any It is surely an fll wind that blows no one good. The political debate that sprang up in the te yesterday afternoon over the District appropriation bill as a part of the republican program of delay may have the effect of postponing final action on the measure, but that Is of no consequence, as the budget will certainly be passed before the money is needed. There are, to be sure, certain items that are made immediately avail and, in view of the stress of cir- cumstances among the poor of the District at present, every dollar that can be re- leased for public works will do wonders of good at thi ason, But the speeches of ators G and an will be of it to the District In the future, Such talks as these draw more than fair interest In later years. They indicate a most whe ome spirit of liberal justice toward @ class of citizens who are ab: lu dependent upon Congress for their fends for public works. Mr. Gorman painted a picture for the future Washing- ton that was an appropriate companion piece for Mr. Sherman's sketch of the Wa ston of his eariier recollection, and both agreed that the capital bas a most glorious prospect. If the policy of appro- a the broad and 2 two men, as the Senate yesterday, the Dis- utiful future would be much rer at hand than it now appears to be. ach words 23 these that follow, culled from M rman’s speech, will surely find fertile growing soil after a time: “LE think the co of both the Senate and House of Representatives 1s constantly to restrict and meddle with a matter In Which the people of the District are more deeply interested than are the members of Congre > * * It seems to me that beth the Senate and the House have been niggardiy in complying with their requisi- tions. i Lelieve that now a larger appro- priation should be made. The amount of tax levied upon the people of the District of Col a and upon the United States ether amounts to about $7,000,000, ‘There priated in the pending bill, with iments of the Senate committee, about 36,000,000, which would leave a in the treasury, including the nunt paid by the government, of about $1,000,000, It seems to me that the tax te cught to be changed, or else bid atl ab ons sheuld be more liberally made. * bd Sir, every year the amount of money ex- ied in improving the city ought to be because every year not less than le ave added to the population of m ard the business of this Dis- is growing.” Mr. Gorman took an even more ceculed | ind against parsimonious legislation, | this was the more significant and cheering because of his position as chair- man of the sub-committee in charge of the bill, He said many things that should be spread abroad by the citizens of the Dis- trict. There are golden words of encour- agement to be found in his brief talk, as th t selected sentences will indicate: “Lf the appropriations were increased twice the amount that we have pre ted for in th amendments, it would be domg but sin justice to 250,000 pe Je in this District, trom whom you and 1 have taken away the right of self-government, who, it they had the right, would do more than we have provided. We have turned ourselves into a common council to legislate for this District, and I say, as to both parties, we have been too economical. We ought to have gone beyond the appropriations which have been made. * * * There is not a man, woman, or child within the contincs of the Union who has not a great pride in this capital. I know of no man so poor in my State Who would hesitate to appro- priate enough to educate the children in the District of Columbia. I know of no man or woman who has complained he- cause this town has been beautified: and it can not be done without money. They have a pride in it. It Is one of the things that they come here and see and enjoy, and they think more of their Governmont and of their representatives in Congress for having made a fair provision for the city. They ought to complain, I have no doubt they do complain, that there bas been too much parsimony here.” The District can not be very badly treated much longer with such staunch friends in the Upper House. It Is to be heped that the spirit shown by Mr. Gor- man, backed, as it ts, by the sentiment of one who is a foremost figure on tie opposite side, will resuit in a very general sustaining of the Senate's figures in the conference that is to take place between the two Houses. soe After having given to the subject all the deliberation it probably needed, the Dis- trict Commissioners ha¥e at last issued an erder which compels street-railway com- pan whose cars are mechanically operated to equip every grip or motor car with a fender and wheel-guard of such pattern or patterns as have been or may be approved by the Board of Commission- ers. ‘he fight for fenders is therefore over. The contest has been a triangular sert of an affair. The Commissioners wanted to enforce the law compelling car- equipment with fenders, but desired to avoid specific responsibility; the railway mpanies expressed willingness to equip, but insisted that the Commissioners should name the fender to be used, and thus be- come, to some extent, responsible; the gen- eral public wanted fenders in a hurry, and Was impatient because of the delay. Now it is provided that cable and electric cars may not legally be fenderless after the first day of April next; if they shguld be then prosecution of the responsible parties will follow. ‘fhe Star has done its share in the agitation which is to result in appli- cation of life-saving appliances to the more dangerous of the swift-moving vehicles cemmon on city streets; it joins with the people of Washington in reasonable re- Joicing over the satisfactory conclusion reached after protracted negotiation. — Secretary Carlisle should have a clear impression as to what is to reform the system of gov- architecture. More than a week retary tendered to Mr. John M. Carrere the office of supervising architect of the treasury. Mr. Carrere is an archi- tect of high rank whose reputation as such {3 of the best; a men who would be likely to straighten matters out if such @ thing cculd be done by one man under By this time needed ernment ago the circumstances which weuld be almost en- tirely beyond his rol. The proffer was duly considered and the outcome was a let- ter of ation from Mr. Carrere. ‘That letter is a v Interesting document and should, if the Secretary gives it any heed, show the Secretary how necessary it is that he move speedily and vigorously to the support of the McKaig bill— which would divide the purely architec- tural work among the best private archi- tects throughout the country. Mr.Carrere’s testimony as to present conditions in the oifice which he declines to take charge of is far from complimentary. Says he: he present condition of this work is in such a disorganized state that it would take the best part of any man's time to re- organize the work itself, irrespective of the department. The accumulated waste of money is beyond belief. The department, im the main, seems to be well organized, j deal more ag! though cumbersome. The personnel Is elficient in a measure, but ill adapted to the class of work which the country ex- pects of our government, and absolutely deficient in artistic worth. The tenure of the office is controlled either by the civil service ruies or by political influence, and with this state of affairs the office of su- pervising architect, legally, is merely that of a clerk of the department appointed by the Secretary of the Treasury and, though nis responsibility is supposed to cover all of the above work, his authority is abso- jutely dependent on the Secretary of the ‘Treasury, and much of it is divided with heads of departments. Any man, no mat- ter what his ability or his power for work and concentration, and no matter what con- ditions might be offered to him, even those of absolute responsibility with absolute authority, would have to devote himself either to managing the office, allowing the designing to be done by draughtsmen, as at present, or to designirg, allowing the ments, 28 at present; and no man of ability, with a reputation to lose as an artist,would be presumptuous enough to accept the of- fice, even if his duties were to be confined irrespective of any other work T responsibility, because it is absolutely beyond the grasp and the ability of any }one man who has ever lived to imprint | his personality upon this work, and much less to design It and study it himself.” The remedy is not ard to find. It is in the bill referred to; a measure which the sretary has not strengthened by his faint praise. “My examination of the office and its possibilities,” says Mr. Carrere, “con- vinees me that the underlying principle upon which it is based is radically wrong, and that it fs beyond the power of any one man to make a success of it. The system, not the man, should be changed.” It is safe to aver that neither the Secretary nor anyene else will seriously attempt to con- trovert Mr. Carrere’s assertions, yet it cems probable that Congress—economical Congress—will permit the extravagance and ismanagement complained of to go in- efinitely. ee If those who govern the present empire of China desire to emerge from the ditti- culty with Japan and have anything left worth holding, they will push negotiations for peace with all possible rapidity, for it now seems to be certain that Wei-Hai-Wei has fallen. With this strong position in the hands of the Japanese, almost any sort of a military movement is now possible to the invaders; who will, dovbUess, unless the war is brought to a close by diplomac move steadily on te possess some of the large interior cities, notably Tien-Tsin and Pekin, and then, probably, there will be an awakening of Chinamen likely to disturb the present Chinese government rather than the advancing Japanese.
