THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. TUESDAY. +..Jane 4, 1595. 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. t7 In 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. Two street-railroad companies are biddiag against each other in New York. for fran- chises which, when granted, will give th successful corporation possession of a large area of the upper portion of Manhattan Island. In the days not so long past the bidding on such tatters was done in se- eret, and whatever money was expended by the competitors went to swell the bank accounts of members of the board of alder- men, instead of enriching the city treasury. But municipal methods in New York have changed very much of late, and now the bids are made openly and to the astonish- ment of a large percentage of the board of aldermen, to say nothing of the unofficial New Yorkers who are still unaccustomed to receiving any consideration Whatever at the hands of either corporations or local legislators. The Metropolitan Traction Com- Pany offers the city a cash bonus of $100,000, in addition to the regular percent- ages and other payments which the holders of street-raiiroad franchises are required b law to pay the city. The Metropolitan Traction Company will, however, have to raise its bid considerably before it can be regarded as in the contest, for its rival on this occasion—the Third Avenue Company— has expressed its readiness to contribu ry, the sum of $250,000. It should be the pleasure of the board. of aldermen to encourage the bidders and to thus secure the largest possible amount of money in return for what every one admits are ex- tremely valuable privileges. There is no reason why franchises in the District of Columbia should not be disposed of in pre- cisely the same way. Once or twice there has been scattering effort to bring about open competition for franchises which have hitherts been given to individuals and cor- Porations without money and without price, but nothing has ever come of the weil- meaning endeavors; a failure which can only be explained by the not-unreasonable Potion that there were more members of Congress interested in the welfare of the corporations than were interested in the welfare of the people of the District of Co- lumbia. —___ « —____ Alarmed by the growth of the gambling _evil among young men of otherwise upright tendencies some of the commercial insti- tutions of the country are, for their own protection, endeavoring to prevent thelr employes from patronizing bucket-shops, race-tracks, and other places and means of staking their wages on the chance of win- ning. The St. Louis Bank of Commerce is one of the first to issue an order forbidding clerks from visiting those places where games of chance or schemes of speculation are under way, on penalty of dismissal. ‘This appeal is to the rectitude of the young man through his sense of fear. It is not as lasting in moral effect, perhaps, as one that emanates from the innate sense of right- eousness that should show every man the wrong, as well as the folly, of risking the means of life on an uncertain game, but it is better than carelessness. In many cases wrong is done to others as well as to the active participant. Families are frequently ruined, while business houses have often had to close thelr doors through the reckless gambling of trusted clerks. The evil is present in Washington today as much as ever before, and it might be well for some of the large employers in the Dis- trict to consider the advisability of institut- ing such a method of restriction. Such a prehibition would doubtless do a vast amount of good in keeping young men from the race-tracks and the gambling-dens that cluster near them. This is one of the surest means of eradicating the evils that exist across the river. One way is to drive them out; another is to starve them out. If this lerge class of patrons should be thus dis- couraged from attending the resorts and staking their money the dens would soon find their incomes so far reduced that a removal to other, less moral, and more profitable flelds would be one of the first expedients to suggest itself to the fertile minds of the managers. —_____+ +____ Governor Greenhalge of Massachusetts is in hot water just now. Thermometric readings in Boston during the past four or five days indicate an extraordinary degree of atmospheric heat, but the recorded con- ditions are pleasantly cool when compared with the warmth generated by the gover- nor's veto of the bill to give the veterans of the late war compulsory preference in the important matter of appointments to the public service. This veto is not the act of one who is unfriendly to the vet- eran soldiers and sailors, for in the days when the Union was assailed by those who were of its own household Frederick Green- halge was among the foremost of the de- fenders of the flag. The governor's argu- ment In support of his veto is based upon the governor’s emphatic belief that the public good Gemands the best service ob- tainable and that, therefore, the effort to legislate in favor of any particular cla: no matter what claim that class may have upor the public sympathy, i ds of reat number who are capable of vigorous ut- terance will take issue with the governor as to both the executive wisdom and pa- trictism of -his act, and while they may not succeed in convincing him that his veto was a blunder—which is probably the mildest term they will apply to it—they will write so much and say so ch that, in his heart of hearts, Gov. Greenhalge will wish he had allowed the bill to become a@ law without a word of comment. —__---9 = Admiral Kirkland will need to be very careful if he wishes to avoid trouble. This warning appears to be necessary because a private letter from Beyrouf, Syria, has given most of those who have read so much of the letter as is printed an impression that the admiral has insisted that Ameri- can citizens who happen to be residents of Syria are really entitled to the respect of the non-Americans and the anti-Americans with whom business or pleasure may bring them into association. The published p tion of the epistle referred to says: “The two United States men-of-war that Only one, Beyrout, but she came here created quite a stir. the Marblehead, came to met the San Francisco and the admiral on boa elsco sent for the Turkish pe down from Adana, St him, and gave him'a very piain ‘talking. to about respect for American citizc admiral (Kirkland), is a bluff old just the one to bulldoze the Turk, and he did it in style. The Turks have been quite nasty up there of late. A great impres ‘was created in Beyrout, tov. The peo: here had fears of a massacre by the M lems, and thought that the arrival of the frigate prevented It.” What Admiral Kirkland is not a diplomat 1s evident. He seems to be a plain-spoken, hearty American who somehow or other has gotten hold of an impression that there 4q meaning in the Stars and Stripes, and be- hind them a power that will not be either silent or physically inactive should it be necessary to insist upon fair treatment for those who legally appeal to the colors for protection. Just where the admiral con- tracted these ideas—which will doubtless be condemned by many as jingoistic—is ‘m- material: it is enough to know that they are likely to cause the admiral a great deal of trouble with the authorities at Wash- ington unless he keeps them under cover more than he has of late. How the ad- ministration’s blood must boil when the administration thinks of this bluff old sait ordering a Turkish pasha to appear before him for the purpose of unwillingly listening to an emphatic lecture on the rights of American citizens and the duties of Turkish pashas to those same individuals! How the ship of state—under easy sail and with her centerboard up—must have shivered trom sprit to rudder when those on board learned’ that the daring Kirkland had patriotically bulldozed the Turkish official after the fashion common enough in the British service but discouraged almost out of existence in the navy of the United States! There will be little peace in the State Department from this time until the Star-Spangled admiral returns to American waters. —_+++____ Uncle Sam, in his capacity as publisher of interesting booklets on a great variety of topics, has just had a talk wita the people of the country on the subject of “Weeds and how to Kill them.” He gives the names of a hundred or so of objectionable weeds and describes methods of killing each one, but it seems as though he has fallen behind the times, for he depends upon the old fashioned plan of up-rooting the weed, “spudding” it out, or carefully sprinkling it vith noxious liquids, and does not seem to have heard of the latest schem2 for destrcyirg these intruders, weich has been put into execution by some of the great railroads in the far west, where the weeds grcw to almost oriental size and strength, and sometimes obstruct travel. This is an electric apparatus, and is simply a machine for artificially striking the weeds by lightning. An electric gen- erator is mounted on a car and run along the track. Grdtnd connection is made through the car wheels. The other pole of the dynamo, which produces a current of from 2,000 to 24,000 volts, is carried out over the of the weeds by means of a series of fine wires, or an electric brush. When the current is “on” the weeds are wholly destroyed, and the best effect of the apparatus is that the roots get the worst shock, by having sc much more moisture about them. Thus miles of bad plants are killed, at a minimum expense, and with maximum results. THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JUNE 4, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. McKnew’s “Daily Letter.” 5S Wrapper SALE.

Ave. 0 More rigorous punishment is needed for those villains who are convicted of house- breakirg; a condition of affairs to whict attention is directed by the many murders which have been recenlly committed by burglars wno have been detected by those upon whose property the burglars had de- signs. A great many intelligent men who are not extremists believe that the crime of burgiary should be made a capital ot- fense, punishable as other capital crimes are punished. The man who breaks into the house of another for the purpose of robbery, and who, if detected, may be killed with impunity by the owner, is des- perats enough to shoot and kill in order to Prevent discovery or apprehension in the act, and is generally prepared for this emergency. Police statistics show a steady increase in this offense in this country, and emphasize the necessity of more stringent penaities. —_-+ + -____ Susan B.
