6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘WEDNESDAY. ....,,.February 27, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. THE EVENING STAR has « 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 dela: count of personal absence, THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the Office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. Before the Senate adjourns it ought to take a vote on the dollar gas bill. This mreasure seeks to improve the quality and cheapen the price of Washington gas. There is room, in respect to both of these purposes, for legislative action which will promote the public welfare. The capital is entitled fo an expression of opinion on the matter from the upper branch of its legislature. If the Senate favors any part of the House proposition, as, for instance, improvement of the quality of thé gas, or @ cheapening of price, ever if not to the extent proposed by the House, it ought to so declare, and in fairness to the District permit the matter to go to a conference, and to a compromise decision if that is the best that can be secured. If it should happen, through the pressure of matters at this stage of the present session, that this Congress adjourns with- out senatorial consideration of the gas bill, then it would be a wise policy on the part of the gas company to make of its own accord those concessions to the reasonable wishes of the public which Congress has failed to exact from it as a matter of compulsion. The existing gas company desires no competitor, and- the community does not wish the streets torn up unnecessarily for the purpose of test- ing an experimental and undescribed illuminant. The company will wisely make some sacrifices, even if they result in a temporary reduction of dividends, to main- tain and enlarge this platform of harmony upon which it and the city may stand to- gether. Washington .must and will have as good gas and as cheap gas as any other community similarly situated. In securing the improved illuminant the eity would prefer on the score of con- venience to make use of existing agencies, if success through them is not found hope- less. It will pay the company in the end to voluntarily cheapen the price of its product. + + = _____ Few people will make openly adverse comment on the passage by the New York legislature of what is generally knowh as the Lawson flag bill—a measure which will prevent the display of alien colors on flag- staffs that should be sacred to the Stars and Stripes. Hitherto it has been cus- tomary for about all of the foreign ele- ments in New York City possessed of any considerable voting stsength to insist upon a@ joint celebration of foreign holidays in which they were evidently much more deeply interested than they were in Wash- ington’s Birthday or the Fourth of July. Sometimes these semi-American organiza- tions succeeded in having their old-country celebrations converted into semi-national occasions in Manhattan, and it was only once in a great while that the banners of other lands did not share the City Hall flagstaff with the bunting of the Union. The Lawson bill—now law—will prevent the display over public buildings in the Empire State of any flag other than the one to which Americans do homage. ——_r>—___ The drowning of a young man in the James Creek canal yesterday morning once more directs public attention to inexcus- able lack of protection for the public along the banks of that odorous stream. Just how many people have found death in the sluggish and stench-productive flow of sewage does not now appear, but the num- ber is quite large and shows conclusively the necessity for a fence that will prevent repetition of the involuntary drownings that have taken place in one of the great- est nuisances with which this city is afflicted. From the mouth of the arched sewer down to where the waters of the Eastern Branch are polluted by the filthy flood, the canal should be fenced. As soon as possible the present open sewer should be covered permanently from sight and smell. The James Creek canal is one of the conspicuous nuisances which char- acterize Washington's antiquated and in- adequate sewerage system, and which de- mand speedy abatement. —_—_—_+ e+ ___ Municipal philanthropy often results in large returns for a small investment. This promises to be conspicuously so in Phila- delphia, where the city authorities assist the city’s free library by an annual ap- Propriation of $25,000—a sum that pays the running expenses and the salaries of em- ployes. People who know nothing of free circulating libraries will probably be sur- prised to learn that a very large proportion of the library’s patronage is derived from the boys and girls whose homes are in the + least desirable portions of the Quaker City; children whose educational opportunities are quite limited and who might be ex- cused Were they to develop greater fond- ness for dime novels than for Shakespeare or for translations of the liad. Compared with the material profits that will surely accrue, the investment is infinitesimal. One of the institutions which Washington lacks, but which it will soon possess, congres- sional obstructiveness notwithstanding, is a free library worthy of the reputation of the National Capital. ——--~+ e+ ____ ‘There were ore hundred and thirty-eight men employed upon the new city post-ottice building today. Operations commenced on the structure three years and seven days ago and will probably conclude about August 17, 1906. ——_+ +> —____ If the District of Columbia were inclined to be small-minded, it might find some satis- faction in reflecting that Congress has treated the rest of the country shabbily, too. ———- + 6 There is no topic of greater present im- portance to the National Dairyman’s Asso- ciation—now in session in this city—than that which through discussion and action promises to result in compelling conscience- less competitors, who sell as butter cleverly- manufactured imitations of that food, to put their goods on the market without de- ceit. Within the past few years the manu- facture of oleomargarine and kindred coun- terfeits of butter has become a great in- dustry and as such is entitled to respect end consideration, but when it is apparent that but a small percentage of the often- skilful imitations reach the consumer in & straightforward, honest fashion, then it becomes evident that something should be done to protect those who are being im- pesed upon. It is the boast of manufac- turers and agents interested In the produc- tion of oleomargarine that their product is fully equal, so far as edible desirability is concerned, to the best butter, and superior to the vast quantity of lower grade butters of which the market always has a suffi- ciency. Admitting, for the sake of argu- ment, the accuracy of these statements, the question may properly be asked, why do rot the advocates and sellers of oleomar- gorine declare its character, instead of en- deavoring, as they unquestionably do, to sell it for butter? There are today in this city—and the proportion here is probable smaller than in any of the large centers of . Pcpulation—very many people who eat oleo- : THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. - margarine and who imagine that they are eating butter. This would indicate that the art of making oleomargarine has reached almost to its limit and, say the sellers of oleo, is testimony favorable to their goods; but that view of the case will only be taken by those who are selfishly interested in de- ceiving the public. If oleomargarine is as pleasant to the taste and to the eye as good butter is, and if its ingredients are in every respect as healthful as are those found in sound butter, why do not the men who make it and sell it come out boldly and ap- peal to the public for its indorsement? There may be, and probably is, a good deal of prejudice against the imitation, but that Prejudice will not be hard to overcome if the apostles of oleomargarine can only prove specifically the allegations they make generally. Figures that have the appear- ance of being incontestable show a tre- mendous falling off in our exportation of butter and from apparently reliable infor- mation, contributed by countries that were crce good customers, the diminution in business is largely due to heavy shipments ef oleomargarine—sold as butter—that failed to come up to the European pur- chasers’ standard; damage thus being done both to the American dairy farmer and the maker of oleomargarine. Several of the states and some foreign countries have rigidly enforced laws governing the sale of imitations of natural foods, but it does rot seem as though the statutes were yet sufficiently far-reaching. Perhaps the Na- tional Dairyman’s Association has some good suggestions to make. ———_+ =___ Congress will establish a precedent that may rise up to vex it if the House of Rep- Tesentatives agrees with the Senate that the nation should pay the legal expenses incurred by Col. Ainsworth in defending himself against the accusation that held him to partial responsibility for the Old Ford Theater disaster. To some people it may seem to be all right that the govern- ment should assume sole responsibility for the shocking occurrence of June 9, 1893— even to the extent of paying the counsel fees of the official in charge of the build- ing—but the Senate’s action suggests the Possibility of similar demand—should he ultimately be acquitted—by Capt. Howgate and by other public servants accused of misconduct and tortunate enough to be de-~ clared innocent by a jury, or to be relieved from indictment by the action of a court. * ——~+-____ Baseball enthusiasts cannot be otherwise than pleased at the conclusions reached by the rules committee of the National Base- ball League. It is altogether improbable that the League will do otherwise than ac- cept the report of the committee, so it ‘may reasonably be expected that during the coming season, at least, there will be less of rowdy behavior on the field than has been common in recent seasons, Bulldozing Players have tormented large audiences in this city with exhibitions that were entirely disgraceful, but the new rules, if legalized and enforced, can only result in the dis- comfiture of any player who is guilty of the conduct to which the public has taken vigorous exception. > + ____ Congress 1s holding night sessions and is experiencing a wild burst of energy. There is, however, an Impression that it is too late for even a death-bed repentance. —_— ree While he may persist in his skepticism as to other 4ocalities, Col. Bob Ingersoll will never have the temerity to assert that there is no such place as Hoboken. —___+ ++ John L. Sullivan is reported to have gone broke in Jacksonville, Fla. In the course of time he will learn better than to go to that city. + ¢ + ____ Mayor Strong has surprised a number of people with the amount of versatility that cen be thrown into a reform movement. ——_—__+ +e Whatever else may be the humiliations heaped upon the Fifty-third Congress, it will never become a fad. —_—+-—___ Cuba expects her present revolution to be one of the most brilliant of the South American series. —~+eo+—____ Li Hung Chang is taking great chances of going into the diplomatic ring once too often. ——_~++e—__ Mr. Platt appears to be dodging the de- bris from a shattered patronage combine. —___+ +. —____ ‘The carnival season proved itself superior to frost-bite in the south. —___ ++—____ SHOOTING STARS, Spiterul. “What makes you think she has such good taste in artistic matters?” said one girl. “She has given up trying to draw,” said the other. A Wish. That history repeats itself We've very often heard, But let us hope that it will not Encore the 53d. No Chance for Distinction. “Pwofessah,” said Cholly, “is it twue that a man’s mind is a blank when he’s asleep?” “Under normal conditions that is likely to be the case.” “Deab me. I don’t see how some of ouah fellows can tell when they ahe awake, then. I don’t weally.’ More Ground for Eulogy. All hail to great George Washington; Let’s follow in his track. He never was nor couldn’t be An anglo-maniac. Society as She is Reported. New York Reporter: “There’s going to be a swell wedding next week, ydu know.” New York City Editor: “I’d almost for- gotten it. Get your false whiskers and your jimmy and your detective camera, and let’s have at least a column a day about it.” Saves Their Feelings. “What do they keep that scaffolding standing around on the new post office for?” said the man who had just come to this city. “It doesn’t seem to be of any use.”” “That,” replied the cynical citizen, “is to supply perches for the workmen. When they get up there ill-ratured people can’t say they are letting the grass grow under their feet.” Disappointment. “To Congress I will go,” said he; “My friends "twill surely please To see me resting gracefully Upon a bed of ease.” But when his term was out, quoth he: “Ym happy to retire. That bed of ease has proved to be A mattress of barbed wire.’ + += ____ A Possible Field for the Trolley. From the New York World. The trolley system is being rapidly ex- tended for purposes of suburban travel in New England, and its growth is still more rapid from New York southward. It may soon be possible to go from Jersey City to Philadelphia and Baltimore by trolley, and in the not distant future we may expect trolley connection between Boston and Washington. It is not likely, however, that trolley lines will be extensively patronized by “through” travelers. ——-- oe The Chinese Government. From the Boston Globe. é The more the acts of Chinese officials are investigated the greater are seen to be the depths of their official corruption. Some one has said that China needs a Napoleon. But it is doubtful if she is not in equal need of a Lexow committee. on org G AND ELEVENTH STREETS. “Npecla FOR TOMORROW ONLY.
