THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, MAY 30, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY.. May 30, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES. .Editor. 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 Medium it has no competitor. [71m order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personnal 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. American patriotism is not in need of en- couragement; it is a ndtural growth that reaches the full stature of personal sacri- fice without the administering of a stimu- lant. But even the purest and most vig- orous variety of starred and striped pa- triotism is the better and the broader for the ennual velebration of Memorial Day. Old men who have fought appreciate the honor den2 those who were their comrades in the camp, on the march and upon the field of battle. Young men receive indelibly the Impressioa that anything they may do for the country while serving beneath the country’s flag will not ke forgotten by those who survive to be bereficiaries of «sacri- ficial valor. Aside frem such considera- tions, however—which are somewhat narrow at their foundations—there is much to be grateful for b2ceuse of Memorial Day. It corapels even the careless mind to thoughts of heroic dezds unselishiy dene. In the militery pomp of the escorting troops is suggested the strong armies which saved the Union; in the rapidly-asing wearers of the unadorned blue is exemplified the mu- tual fidelity that even the grave cannot de- stroy; in the flag and flower-decorated mounds is reminder of the mortality that cuts shcrt the career even of the heroic. Not the least pleasing of Memorial Day re- flections is that which dwells upon the steady growth of the custom so that it is now a national habit to strew blossoms above the remains of others than the sol- dicrs and sailors whese devotion to duty resulted in the setting apart, of the thir- ticth day of May as a day sacred to the de- parted. Now but few graves are neglected. Memorial Day is probably the most whole- some of our national holiday —_ +--+ —_—. A serious deficlency in the street-lighting artment of our local government is by no means surprising; it was confidently ex- pected by people who have watched closely the expenditure of the illummant upon which Washingtonians must mainly depend for guidance after sundown. Increase in the number of lamps fs in part responsible for the scarcity of illumination which will probably be a feature of outdoor Washing- te y night from now until the com- mencement of the new fiscal year, but there is other responsibility. Crying over spilt milk is foolish, and there can be nothing but failure for him who may endeavor to lighten our gloom with the gas that has been consumed, but it is, nevertheless, a proper thing to call attention to the fact that much gas was wasted last summer and autumn. Many valuable hours of gas- light were simply thrown away through the bad management of some one at the District building. Lamplighters made their first rounds in broad daylight, and were ashamed of their enforced participation in such unbusinesslike proceedings. The de- ficiency, so far as it results from artificially illuminating daylight hours, is inexcusable. ——_ +2 After full and free discussion of the Proposition to establish a diocese of Wash- ington, the Maryland diocesan convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church has voted in the affirmative with practical unanimity, and now the matter is in shape for reference to the general convention of the church—to meet at Minneapolis some months hénce. That the supreme body will do otherwise than accept the advice prof- fered it by the diocesan convention is not at all likely, for the bulk and weight of the argument are on the side of divis.on of the present diocese of Maryland. The change, when it becomes effective, will undoubtedly operate to the advantage of the whole church and surely to the encouragement of Episcopalianism in the District of Colum- There will be many larger dioceses than that of Washington, but ten years hence none will compare with it in the mat- ter of denominational importance and edu- cational rank. Here will be the great Epis- copal cathedral, and around that magnifi- cent edifice will cluster buildings in which many good works will be done and from which shall issue influences potent io hasten the coming of that ideal civilization for which so many earnest men and women tirelessly strive. ——__ 0= The members and officers of the Columbia Athletic Club of this city are to be con- Sratulated upon their enterprising efforts to revive interest in wheeling and in bicy- cling races. Washington was once famous for its athletic sports, but of late years this fraternity has rather gone to seed, for one reason and another. Good, clean, honest sport is to be encouraged at all times, and bicycling will always be one of the chief features of life at the capital. Fair amateur races on the wheel will never fall out of favor with the public, and the events at Columbia field today show that there is great interest among the people in this sport. The club that managed and carried out this feature of the Decoration Day events at home should be encouraged to continue. Let Washington endeavor to roud position as the home ir in healthful sport. ee aders of The Star do not need to have sir attention directed to the deeply-inter- sting finaacial matter which day after day is presented in the correspondence tha€ comes frm the middle west and south. ‘To e plain the situation as to silver in those portions of the country Where the free coinage campaign is hottest and most likely to overthrow existing polit- {eal and industrial conditions The Star some time ago sent a member of its staff into the ficld; his investigating tour has re- sulted in the uncovering of much valuable News and the publication of opinions well worthy of study. soe ingenious arguments have been ad- v 1 by advocates of the overhead trolley system of street-car propulsion to prove that it is by no means the dangerous thing that everybody not prejudiced knows It to be.

If eve one rode bo one would be run down by ‘ring cars, Motormen could then safely filng prudence to the winds and run their cars at twenty or thirty miles an hour. The small proportion of deaths to the num- ber of people transported would be even more striking. But, unfortunately for this system of calculation, and for the people themselves, the supply of nickels is Itmited, and the real needs of the people to ride are not so great as to require the whole popu- lation to take to the trolleys. The man- agers must devise some plan of rehabilitat- ing the now discredited trolley in the public mind. It will not do for them to make vicious attacks upon the bicycle as a slayer of riders out of proportion to the riders on trolley cars, or to plead for a classification of the gasoline stove and the elevator with their metnod of transportation. —_-+ «+ ___ Philadelphia has been accused of slow- ness.
