6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY. --..June 6, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES — ee 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. .Editor. Fin 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 Ediforint or Business Depart- ments, necording to tenor or purpose. It seems to be defnitely understood that with the incoming of July there will be gadical reforms inaugurated in the im- portant matter of garbage collection. The information will be cordially greeted by all thinking residents of the District of Co- Inmbla, for of the many things municipal that are in need of reform none can claim to outrank our methods of garbage collec- tion and disposal. The problem is a most serious one, and is worthy the closest at- tention, official ayd unofficial. Announce- ment has been made to the effect that the authorities will insist upon the fulfilment— in the spirit and the letter—of every speci- fication in the contract, and that short- comings will result in the instant assess- ment of the penalties for the collection of which provision has properly been made. But unless the general public is thoroughly aroused to the necessity for absolute clean- liness and does what it ought in contribut- ing toward the success of better plans than any with which the people of Washington have had experience, the contractors must ly fail. At this time a great many are being made as to the gar- rvice, and a large proportion of the ances that find expression and secure attention at the Health Office are undoubt- edly founded upon the carelessness, or worse, of the contractors or their agents, but all of the responsibility is not on one side; the people who fail to respond when the signal sounds or who keep their alley doors closed when they should be open must bear some of the burden. Health Of- Woodward has announced his inten- tion of compelling, if such a thing be nec- essary, the obedience of both contractors and householders, and in his effort to im- prove conditions that are now far from iceal he will undoubte@ly have the sincere sympathy and support of the major por- tion of the community. There is not now arything unreasonable in the garbage regu- lations. Those necessary commandments have been framed with the one object in view of creating and sustaining a first- class service, and while there may be ap- pearance of hardship in some of the indi- vidual instances that will arise to bother the authorities and those with whom they have to deal, it is not believed that there can be any serious difference of opinion or any conflict over mere technicalities. The general health of the city should he a mat- ter of supreme interest to every Washing- tonian; to be unconcerned as to the welfare of neighbors fs to be unfit for latter-day association with civilized beings. Healthful conditions can only be achieved through co- operative vigilance, so it should be the duty of the authorities to impress upon the pub- lic the necessity for keeping a close watch on the garbage contractors and at the same time have the contractors under- stand that the public too needs watching. If each of the parties concerned will be watchful of the other and will promptly re- port such weaknesses as doubtless will de- velop, then Washington will, more than ever, be the most desirable urban place of residence in the United States. ——__ + «+ ____ Most Amerteans who have paid any at- tention to the birth and growth of ‘he New Woman have probably supposed that she really was new and have forgotten Solomon's unvarying statement of the com- plete absence of anything like novelty un- der tha sun. The so-called New Woman has beeh a social feature in Belgium for a great many years, yet strangely enough she has existed not among the specially re- fined but among the working classes. In the vicinity of Ghent woman is theoretical- ly and practically triumphant; she is the lcader, the protector; and she is so because she is a better financier than the man. As a rule, these Belgian women do not marry until they are quite thirty years of age and as they invariably work in factories from the time their school-days come to an end they are in fairly prosperous condi- tion when the time comes that they feel impressed with the necessity of taking to themselves husbands. They select their cwn husbands just as the American woman hopes to, and as some American women— who do not aspire to be known as of the new variety—have unostentatiously suc- ceeded in doing. Once in awhile the young Eelgian man says he is willing to be a brother to the lady who has honored him by a marriage proposition, but the rule is acceptance, for the shrewd proposer inva- Tiably selects an associate who is younger than herself, and who has displayed mental pliability. Throughout the entire operation the male seems to play a secondary part. ‘The woman selects the house in which they are to live, purchases the furniture, com- plies with the requirements of the law as to published notices of the wedding, and without consulting her mate makes all the preliminary arrangements. Everything having been settled to the saisfaction of the bride-elect, the groom-prospective is teld to hold himself in readiness for the ceremony. It is to the cre of the Belgian woman that she treats her husband kindly and regards him as her most highly-valued pe cn. Will the new American woman do as much? The Nicaraguan government is a good deal worried over its task of preserving a discreet humility toward foreign powers and a proper degree of dignity at home. ————+e-____ ‘The fact that the iron is over-due ex- plains to some extent the fact that work cn the new post-office is under-done. —_———_ e+ ___ The Yerkes telescope is guaranteed to be big enough to enable Chicago to see her remotest suburb. —_—_<eo—___ Overhead trolley lines will soon supér- sede steam on the Mount Holly branch of the Pennsylvania railroad, and two or three other of the great railroad corpora- tions are figuring on the advantages to be derived from similar substitution of power. Wherever the railroads have been com- Ppelled to do the best they could to meet the competition of troliey roads {t has invari- ably been proven that electricity was much the cheaper motor and could in every sens of the term get away with the more pon- derous and very much more expensive steam equipment. It is therefore reason- able to imagine that for short runs, at least on roads where the suburban trafiic is heavy, the clectric current will take the place of steam; to the cheapening of rates and the satisfaction of patrons. Electric travel is much the more cleanly, and when the poles and wires are so situated as to be ynobstructive the new method is decidedly the best. Locally there should be interest in the change which the Pennsylvania Com- pany is about to make on its Mount Holly branch, for {t {s probable that there will pe similar procedure as to the Pennsyl- ‘yania’s business between this city and Al- Frenartn Up to this time there has been éntire absence of announcement by. the Company as td such a transformation, but there have been and still are in existence indications which point toward electric Supremacy on the route mentioned. Some years ago the people of Alexandria—desir- ous of providing the Pennsylvania Com- pany with a competitor to this city—gave to the Washington, Alexandria & Mount Ver- non Electric Railway valuable highway privileges. Since the bestowal of those gifts, the electric company has built and now operates an overhead trolley road from Alexandria to Mount Vernon. People have wondered why the long link needed to connect Washington and Alexandria has been so tediously delayed; why no appar- ent effort has been made to grade the roadbed, provide the ties, or lay the iron. It is fair to presume that the competition which Alexandrians sought to encourage will not come into existence through the means they have endeavored to use, for, unless some folks who are reputed to be up to the average in shrewdness are very much mistaken, the Pennsylvania's tracks will be humming beneath trolley cars be- fore many months have gone by, while the locomotives will be transferred to another sphere of operation, a few of them being perhaps retained to pull the heavier sorts of freight. These conclusions come not as the result of any known action on the part cf the Pennsylvania Company, but through the inactivity of the Mount Ver- non corporation. There is nothing aston- ishing in the theory. If it is well-founded the Pennsylvania Company has simply swallowed one more of the hundreds of little combines that have started out to be competitors. — > Sarcasm and reproof have been hurled at the kodak fiend. Proféssional humorisis have depicted him as doing all sorts of absurd and annoying things until even the uninterested citizen has come to regard the amateur photograher as an unmitigated nuisance. But even as the despised mother- in-law is generally much better than she appears to be in the comic papers, so is the amateur photographer superior to such portraits of him as have compelled laugh- ter. It is entirely reasonable to insist that the amateur is responsible for the tre- mendous advances made during recent years in the art of photography. Taking up the camera first as_a toy, many of the brightest of Americans have become in- terested In improving’ the mechanism of that remarkable instrument, and so ‘well have they succeeded that we now have cameras capable of doing about every- thing that a camera could be expected to do. Scientists who, had photography re- mained in the hands of the purely profes- sional, would never have become interested in the wonderful art, found themselves deeply concerned soon after becoming pos- sessors of the magic boxes. and as a result photographic methods have bounded for- Ward so that they are now quite’ abreast with the times and far ahead of where they would have been had matters re- mained entirely in the hands of those whose interest in photography was of the purely commercial! sort, + e _ The managers of the various presidential Vooms that are now engrossing public at- tention should immediately secure from Secretary Morton a nuinber of copies of an interesting pafnpiict issued a few months ago by the Weather Bureau, from the pen of Prof. McAdie, on the subject of protec- tion from lightning. The great effort of these managers now seems to be to put their own favorites directly in the path of the political lightning which will be sure to strike some one between now and the mid- dle of Nevember, 1896. In addition to this, of course, they have a desire to keep every one else out of the same track, and hence there is a good deal of maneuvering and scheming being done by these managers to erect lightning rods, so to speak, over all the individuals in whose interests they are not now engaged. To some people it looks, for instance, as though Mr. Foraker had constructed an effective rod over Mr. Mc- Kinley, and his political fortunes, which Protects that statesman against presiden- tial lightning. But the Foraker rod, since it was erectea without the aid of the sug- gestions of Prof. McAdie, may prove de- fective, and the ightning may yet strike McKinley. —— W. J.
