THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY..,..,,.......April 11, 1895. es ee Se CROSBY S$. NOYES................ Editor. = — 2 THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising mesa it hi mo competitor. t7Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to 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. Publicity has been defirea as “the state of beirg public or open to common knowl- edge; exposure to the view or knowledge pf the public; opposed to secrecy.” At least two members of the board of District Com- missioners are not in accord with the best philologists as to that definition, and one gf these two Commissioners has publicly argued that the mere presence of the street extension map in the board room—to which visitors are scmetimes admitted—is public- ity enough to satisfy the nearly three hun- red thousand pecple who, to a greater or less extent, must be interested in the most important business with which the Com- missioners now have to do. The Star has thought that the section maps of which the big map in the board room is composed should be given to the public as soon as each section is complete and before the Commissioners affix the seal of final ap- proval to the system of street extension planned by Mr. Olmstead. This proposition appears to find no favor‘in the eyes of the Engineer Commissioner, for while that offi- celal declares that the map is open to in- spection he nevertheless refuses to give to the press the section maps that have al- ready been passed upon. Plain people will find it difficult to make the statement and the action harmonize. If the Commission- ers really desire publicity that desirable condition can be achieved without cost either to the District of Columbia or to the Commissioners as individuals; The Star is ready to publish the section maps as mat- ters of news value. If the Commissioners, on the contrary, desire to ktep the great bulk of the residents of the District of Columbia in igrorance of their plans, they will be content with pointing to the map on the walls cf the board room and saying to the more than a quarter of a million inter- ested people: “This map is open to your in- spection for two or three unannounced hours on each week day except Saturday; come up and look at it, and should you chance to come when the board room is closed—as you probably would seven times out of ten—we should be delighted to have you come again. Of course it may be in- convenient fcr you to do this, but that is only a minor consideration, for we are de- termincd not to permit anything to inter- fere with our frequently-announced pur- pose of giving this map all possible pub- icity. Some of you may be so employed as to render o visit to the District building a practical impossibility, but for that condi- tion the Commissioners cannot reasonably be held accountable. Come up and see the map anyhow!” In a communication printed elsewhere in The Star, referenca is made to a map which appeared in this paper April 28, 1893; a map which covered but a small portion of the territory into which extensions were to be pushed and which after all was merely a suggestion. It was not an official map, for it never was adopted, and today it has been entirely superseded by later plans. The skeleton in question was published, under exactly the opposite policy concerning pub- Ucity from that which now prevails, by authority of Engineer Commissioner Ros- well, who was desirous of taking the public {nto his confidence, and who wanted to hear nd profit by every criticism. The printing of the map brought forth many objections and resulted in many changes; It is reason- ably-founded belief that Capt. Rossell’s ex- perience {ts responsible for the absurd kind of “publicity” which is being given to a practically-authorized map that now hangs fm the secluded board room; under the methods now employed objections cannot be made ur til too late. Of course the large Property owners will see to it that their interests are fully represented, and, should the plans promise loss, will do their utmost to compel profitable amendment, but the smaller holders will not, unless the section maps are published, know very much about the plans until irrevocable decision has been reached by “he Commissioners. Officials who think that the mere act of hanging a map on the wall of the star charfber gives to it all the publicity to which the public fs entitled can never be ccepted by modern newspapers and an up-to-date community as _ satisfactory judges of what constitutes news at the District building. The local press and pub- Uc must respectfully but firmly protest against them as censors, revisers and edi- tors of an important branch of local news. + ¢-«____ Chauncey M. Depew declares that he will not fight the income tax. He obviously real- izes the fact that there are so many ready and anxious to do the fighting that there fs no logical excuse for his risking his repu- tation for bonhomie. + + = —__ There were ninety-two men employed upon the new city post-office building to- day; all of them busy men it may be, but too few in number to bring completion of the desired structure nearer than August 17, 1906. —__ + _____ It would be good natured in Thomas B. Reed to announce for the benefit of out-of- town journalists located in Washington whether or not he intends to wear a sash and crease his trousers this summer. —___+++—. There is-a strong democratic sentiment to the effect that the fishing this year Is likely to be a good deal better than the balloting. —__ e+ _____ It ts not to be expected that England will keep her hands off Nicaragua if this coun- try does not keep her eye on it. o> -—_—__— Philadelphia 1s now worried over the problem of where to locate the hospitals. In former years, when the then suburbs were sparsely settled and there was no idea that the city would ever spread so far, theso irstitutions were thought to be ex- cellently placed. But now the city has grown around them, and beyond them, in fact, until the cry goes up that the pres- ence of the hospitals is a menace to prop- erty interests, and there is a strong move- ment on foot to secure their removal to lands far outside the limits of close habitation. The dread of contagion may truly be sald to underlie this agitation. One of the Philadelphia papers appeals for the removal of the hospitals, ard cries out against a proposition now pending for the establishment of a hospital for consump- tives in what is approximately the center of the city. The popular protest against hospitals is unfounded, and needs to be corrected whenever it is heard, for there is much injustice done to the patients by hese periodical outcries. Washington has had and is now having a similar experi- ice, and the result {s most unfortunate. the case of a steadily growing city like adelphia or Washington there is no feslble guarahtee that a hospital could be laced within the range of easy access and { fever Femidved from the possibility of ade the object of popular clamor. ve fag Sto is) ever outwards, to be shifted fur- ‘thare 13 extension of THE EVENING STAR, the suburban lines the problem of main- taining these necessary institutions be- comes serious indeed; for each removal means a large expenditure. Unless the hospitals can be taken far into the coun- try they will surely become the targets for attack at regular Periods, and the best so- lution of the entire matter seems to be to let them stay where they are, and depend for safety upon the new and increasingly effective methods of disinfection that med- ical science is always devising. As a mat- ter of fact, there is no danger to be appre- bended today from the proximity of a hos- pital for the treatment of the most virulent diseases. The latest scientific opinion is strongly to this effect, and professional ef- forts are today being exerted strongly against the tendency of the lay public to spurn the hospitals. Even the very air that comes from the sick rooms is purified before tt is allowed to pass from the build- ing. The sewage is disinfected before it passes into the pipes that lead to the out- lets. No step is neglected that can add one fota of precaution. Yet the people clamor for the removal of these buildings, because vf the notion that their presence endangers life. If any of the hospitals are taken into the country it should only be because there is a need for purer air for the sick ones. ——_~++-___ It now appears that the officials of that “barbarous government” out in the Pacific known as the Republic of Hawaii are per- mitting Mrs. Lydia Dominis, who formerly did business under the trade name of Her Majesty Queen Liliuokalani, but- who is now a prisoner of state, the privilege of walking every day in a ten acre park around the spacious house where she is confined. When the news came over the ocean that Mrs. Dominis had been con- victed of the very injudicious act of con- spiring against the organized and estab- ished government, and had been sentenced to five years’ imprisonment therefor, cer- tain good people in this country with very dim, vague notions of Hawaiian conditions held up their hands in horror and wept large tears of sympathy for this poor lady, so rudely bereft of freedom. They forgot, of course, that this same individual once tried all she knew how to chop off the heads of some hundreds of the people who had been fortunate enough to overthrow her reign in the spasm of the state that followed her outrageous disregard of the rights of her subjects. They did not re- member that when she and her great and good friend at Washington were corres- ponding in regard to this little matter she had been quite indignant because she was not given a covenant that this government would put her back in power and then let her sally forth among her people and swing the axe right and left without any hindrance. There were other little par- tieulars of this interesting lady’s character and disposition that came to light at that time, but that have evidently been quite overlooked in the horror of the news that this same Mrs. Dominis, with the same incorrigible desire for other people’s gore, has been caught conspiring and has been given the terrible sentence of five years’ of imprisonment in a palace, with plenty of the best to eat, women to attend her, music to sooth her wounded feelings, and finally, ten acres of pretty park, nicely fenced in to keep the crowd at a distance, in which to exercise herself each day. It is indeed almost Impossible to imagine the depth of the uncivilized degradation that will devise such @ punishment as this for a poor un- protected woman, whose only fault is her extreme fondness for wielding a fifteenth century rule over a nineteenth century People. —_—__+++____ A Connecticut silk mantfacturer has re- cently notified his employes that he will add 5 per cent to their wages. They had not asked for this advance, and the increase comes to them as a pleasant surprise. One swallow does not make a summer, but nevertheless this is an encouraging sign of returning prosperity, and, with other similar indications, which have been reted from time to time, gives rea. son to believe that the coming sei son will be a bright one from the com- mercial point of view. Washington's busi- ness men have already felt the influence of reviving trade. Indeed, it is a curious fact that the business outlook brightened at once when Congress adjourned. This re- futes the assertion so often made, and quite as often disproved in the local press, that the capital depends for its sustenance upon the national legislature. The bene- ficial effect cf adjournment upon business this year was immediate and marked. It now contintes, and the spring of '95, it is believed, will be a very prosperous one for the local dealers. ——_—__++«___ There is some doubt as to the marriage settlement received by the husband of Miss Anna Gould. Count Castellane’s father says fifteen million francs, and George Gould declares that nothing was paid. Both families evidently feel that they have repu- tations to sustain for financial ability. —___ + ____ China rests serenely upon the proposition that she is rich enough to pay for anything she wants; even peace with Japan. —_++e—____ SHOOTING STARS.

Worse Than Critical. “They tell me that the editor is not very well,” said the poet's friend. “He is feeling quite badly,” was the reply. “I called on him this morning.” “Is his condition critical?” “Worse than that; it’s abusive.” A Social Obligation.
