THE EVENING STAR. i WASHINGTON. TUESDAY..............4.... Sly 9, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES... + eeees+-Editor, THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailtes. As a News ond Advertising Medium it has no competitor. Im order to avotd delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be address 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. Selfish corporate influences are bad enough when they are used publicly for the purpose of interfering with some public good, but they are infinitely worse when their movements are insidious and are di- Tested toward the shaping of educational theortes unfavorable to the people's Interest. Herbert Welsh’s “City and State’ has, in its last issue, an tnteresting editorial on “Muzzles,” In which ft is stated that a Professor occupying 2 chair in a prominent American university was recently dis- missed, the frankly-stated cause of that action being that he had expressed views upon the manner in which the street-car franchises of the municipality should be managed and that those views were dis- Pleasing to a street-railroad magnate who was a liberal patron of the university. The magnate in question had notified the pres- ident of the institution that if the out- spoken professor was permitted to remain there would be no more of financial aid by the magnate. “This,” says “City and “is not an isolated case. A prom!- nent teacher Is now prepar'ng t~ leave the college with which he is connected because he also is unsati!sfaciory for a similar cause to another local magnate. And we know of still another case.” Perhaps there may be some good reason why the names of these magnates and the institutions they have threatened should be concealed from the public, but the reason ts not consp!cu- ous just now. Why not out with the whole truth so that everybody shall haye an op- portunity to know who these men are and why they endeavor to crush honest op!n- ton? Men of means can do glorious work for the future of this country by contribut- ing liberally to the support of schools and colleges and universities, but it would be far better for this land that every depend- ent educational institution pass instantly out of existence than that they be actively continued under such conditions a3 those to which reference Is here being made. Inde- pendence of thought and independence of speech and action—with due regard for law and decency—are American character- istics of such prominence that interference with their existence, through bulldozing and virtual bribery, is nothing less than a crime. —____ + «+ __-__ President Roosevelt of the New York beard of police commissioners seems to stand on solid ground when he says, in re- ply to the criticisms made on the enforce- ment of the Sunday liquor laws in that city, that it is the duty of the police to enforce the laws that are on the statute books whatever they may be, and that they have neither the power nor the inclination to ehcose which shall be ignored and which enforced. This sounds first rate. Unfor- tunately for Mr. Roosevelt, however, it has been pointed out to him that under his ad- ministration, as well as under that of his predecessors, there has been no pretence whatever of enforcing the iaw against the shooting of fire-crackers and other explo- sives in the streets—a practice which It Is alleged, with a good deal of force, affects injuriously the comfort and well-being of citizens generally, and. also endangers Property, life and limb. What response Mr. Roosevelt will be able to make to this rather telling indictment remains to be seen. But, whatever his an- swer may be, the fact 1s patent that, though there are rigid lAws against the dangerous nuisance referred to on the statute books of nearly every city in the country, in none of them have peacable and law-aliding people that proection for their persons and property to which they are jistly entitled. The authorities pretty much everywhere are either unable or unwilling to carry out these much-needed laws. To the sufferers it does not much matter which reason is the true one. They are equally unsatisfactory to the public, and alike dis- creditable to the officials, who take an oath that they will impartially enforce the laws as they are found and otherwise faithfully perform their duties, and yet fail to do so. —__ «2 _ ‘The need of a change in the criminal law of the District which will recognize different degrees of murder with corre- spondingly varying punishments is em- phasized by the popular movement for a commutation of sentence in the Taylor care. In this case the neighbors of the convicted man, who would be best ac- quainted with eny extenuating circum- stances in the tragedy, contend most earnestly that the killing Is not one which deserves to be punished by the infliction of the death penalty, and thousands of signa- tures have been attached to a petition that the President in the exercise of the par- dcrirg power Go what the jury could not do, under the law, and reduce the penalty until {t is adequate to the offense. As a rule when the alternative is presented to a jury of convicting and hanging a man fon murder or acquitting him, the case not being such as to admit of a verdict of manslaughter, any doubt !s solved in favor of the accused, and an acquittal possibly injurtous to the community follows. But the doubt may be solved wrongfully against the prisoner, and a man be hanged who merits some punishment beyond that for manslaughter, but does not deserve the death penalty. Evil results are threat- ened in elther case, and beyond all ques- tion the jury should be permitted to make a nicer, more accurate and more equitable adjustment of the punishment to the of- ferse than the existing law permits. —____+ +e —___ The Pullman Palace Car Company's ad- vance in wages Is significant of good times. But as the traveling public made no re- duction in the fee of twenty-five cents to the porter for breathing, his income will probably experience no great improvement with reviving prices in other fields. + China did some remarkable things, many inexcusable things and a few sensible things in its warfare and diplomatic deal- ing with Japan. Having been thoroughly thrashed and being in fear of invasion that might perhaps take on permanency of character, the most sensible thing China did was to avail itself of the services of John W. Foster, of this city, as adviser- general. Versed in all diplomatic arts he ‘was precisely the man for the place and the time; it ‘s not an over-assertion to state that Japan had quite as much confi- dence in his common sense as China had and this confidence had much to do with the présumably satisfactory understanding crystallized in the treaty of Shimonosekt. Now that the negoilations have been closed, some of those who participated therein feel at liberty to discuss matters heretofore not talked of in public, and among these there is practical unanimity of sentiment to the effect that but for Mr. Foster's influence a treaty of peace could not have been concluded for a very long time, tf ever. How much China gained by the advice and assistance of Mr. Foster is made plain in the Pekin and Tien-Tsin THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JULY 9, 1895~-ITWELVE PAGES. Times which, editorially reviewing the negotiations, shows that the treaty as signed reduces by one-third—about one hundred and forty-four million, four hun- dred thousand dollars—the amount of in- demnity originally claimed. Other reduc- tions and changes favorable to China are the reduction by one-half of the area of territory claimed on the Liao-Tung penin- Sula; the reduction of the payment to be made by China of the cost of the Japanese army of éccupation, pending the perform- ance of treaty obligations by China, from about one million, g!x hundred thousand dollars to about four hundred thousand dollars; the restriction of occupation of Chinese territory by Japanese troops to Wel-Hal-Wel and complete abandonment of the claimed right to occupy Moukden. More than these, Japan also ceased to insist upon special privileges to her subjects trading in China; a relinquishment of great importance to Chinese merchants. China would have been glad to keep Mr. Fcster in its service as governmental adviser, but he naturally prefers residence for the remainder of his days in his native land, which he as soldier and statesman has served so faithfully. —__~ ++ —____ A few days ego an electrician employed in the city of Rechester received a shock of about 3,000 volts of electricity, yet survives to relate the impressions attend- ant upon his extraordinary experience. Supposed to be dead, he was nevertheless subjected to resuscitative treatment for about an hour and a qrarter, the method employed being that discovered by Dr. da’Arsonval, which cons:sts in the encour- agement of respiration by rhythmic move- ments of the arms and pressure of the chest. Th» same syst:m was successfully used in the restoration to I'fe of another electrician who was apparently shocked to death by a 4,690 volt current in Pittsfield, Mass., last November. Upon such cases as these do the anti-electrecutionists build their argument that electricity dees not really kill, but merely stupefies. The infer- ence is unfair, for In both the Rochester and Pittsfield cases there is no evidence to show that the men whom science revived received anything like the full force of the shock indicated by the voltage; the chances are that they were electrified under condi- tions which scattered the force of the shock so effectually as to prevent anything ike permanent injury to a vital part. Autopsies on the bedies of men legally ex- ucuted by the electric current have shown conclus'vely that port'ons of the body ab- solutely essential to life were completely destroyed by the skillfully-directed current of about seventeen hurdred volts. The method of electrocution provides that none of the marvelous current-force shall es- care; the full effect of the rapidly-pulsat- ing blows unquestionably strikes the con- demned person: There is a great deal of difference between accidental contact with mechanism charged with a 4,000-volt cur- rent and sclentifically-planned connection with a current only one-third as strong. The Rochester and Pittsfield cases are, however, extremely interesting, for they indicate that. accidental contact may not always be fatal, and they show quite con- clusively that if the vital organs of vic- tims are uninjured it is possible, by the application of sensible effort, to restore to life those who have apparently closed their earthly careers. —~ The cities which have permified them- selves to be spider-webbed with overhead wires have, doubtless, been regarding the work to secure a first-class electric rail- way on 9th street with deep interest. —_ e + ___ As filtered through the reports to this country Lord Salisbury’s principal argu- ment in-favor of the House of Lords is that it ought to be tolerated because it does not amount to much. —__ es __ So long as this city’s drinking water re- frains from associating with typhoid germs, its failure to draw the color line may be overlooked. : ——__ +++ —___ Washington has not much to do with political reform. But when it comes to trolley reform it praposes to take its place as a leader. ee —___ There were only forty-seven men emi- ployed upon the city post-office building today.
