6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY...............July 11, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. —— THB EVENING STAR has a régular and permanent circulation much more than the combined tirtulation of the other Washington daiites. As n News and Advertising Medium it moO competitor. * JSS Searels Im 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 Depnrt- ments, according to tenor or purpose. It is the most natural thing in the world for the people of Baltimore to be eager to claim credit for their city as egainst Washington, for {t is no small honor to beat this city in any particular. Hence it is important, to the Baltimoreans, if the records of the thermometers of the two cities should show that the town of many oysters and a monument Is cooler in June than is the national center of government, politics, education and art. But it ts to be feared that some misguided statistician has been cruelly fooling the citizens of Wash- ington’s largest suburb by making claims in this regard that aré wholly beyond the pale of reason and proof. In another col- umn will be found the facts, the stern, unrelenting, rock-bottom facts. They are not apt to elevate the local pride of Balti- more. On the contrary, If there should be any advantage to be derived from the figures, to show any climatic supertority of one city over the other, it would seem as though Washington were justly entitled to the point, for the records for nineteen years show that Washington and Balti- more are just the same in temperature in April, May and June, and that Washington is a bit lower than Baltimore during the rest of the year. In the winter this Is not any special advantage, but during July, August and September, the really hot months of the year in this latitude, this eity has a shade the better of the argu- ment. Washington, too, has the cooler nights during the heated term, a great point in {ts favor, as the heat of the nignt is the real element of distress among the weary people in the mid-summer season. Then again, it does not so much matter about a degree more or less in the midst of winter, when it is cold anyway, and folks are so prepared that they can keep out the cold; but a single degree in sum- mer is of the most vital consequence when there are so few devices for resisting the heat. It 1s unfortunate that the over- zealous Baltimorean who mixed the figures should have chosen the weather for his point of attack, while Washington has the official records right at hand: for constant scrutiny. It may be that Baltimore has some points wherein she is superior to Washington. For example her baseball team once won the championship, and is now the leader of the League, an honor to which modest Washington never aspired. The shanghaing industry, tco, ts more Prosperous there than here; the illegal oyster dredging enterprise has a success there that has never been dreamed of at the capital. There are other items, too, in which the “Monumental” City has a de- cided advantage, but it will never do for her loyal citizens’ to clatm superiority for her as a summer resort while people are flocking to Washington to spend the heated term. +o History keeps on repeating itself and duplicating itself and multiplying itself. Here In Washington the city post-office building crawls toward completion at a snail’s pace, and now comes information to the effect that twelve laborers were set to work Tuesday at Wililett’s Point, N. Y., “preliminary to the resumption of construc- tion of fortifications.” The Philadelphia Press comments: This is startling. The Treasury must be “flush,” Indeed, if {t can afford to hire twelve men to resume the work of con- structing fortifications. It is true that there are some millions of dollars appropri- ated by Congress for that purpose yet unexpended, but if Secretary Carlisle can afford to deplete that sum by paying the wages of twelve laborers out of it he must have renewed confidence in the revenues of the government. Some excuse may be found for this drain on the cash by the fact that Willett’s Point will guard New York city by the way of Long Island Sound and that it will take a little over one hundred years for these twelve men to do the necessary work, providing they could ever do it. But this Is a “hustling” admin- istration. Making due allowance for the fact that the Philadelphia Press is an out-and-out republican newspaper and therefore thor- oughly anti-administration, it must, never- theless, be admitted that the criticism is entirely just. There is no economy what- ever in the doing of work as it is almost invariably done by the federal authorities. Congress may to some extent be to blame, but all of the great burden cannot fairly be placed upon congressional shoulders. In spite of the fact that the government is paying out thousands of dollars annually as rent for buildings whose occupants will, if they live long enough, be sheltered tn the post-office building, there were today less than fifty skilled mechanics and labor- ers employed upon the structure whence Washington's mails will some day depart. The policy is “penny-wise and pound foolish.” + ——____— Entirely commendzble fs the action of the Commission2rs in concluding tc organize a committee by which the city’s building regulations are to be revised. The inspector of buildings will, of course, be chairman of tke committee, and he will undoubtedly Rave as associates men who, I'ke himself, are thoroughly competent to pass upon the puzzling problems which will need to be solved before there can be any material amendment of conditions that are far from satisfactory to Washingtonians who have at Feart the best interests of the national capital. Complaint has many times been made that the regulations—frequently amended though they have been—are often found inadequate, and the tnadequacy Is as a rule most conspicuously apparent in in- stances where the public Interest would have beon best served by an inflexible rule. In cther citles this very {mportant matter of building regulations has received a great dea! of attention and there ts every good reasen for insisting that Washington's reg- ulations should be quite as comprehensive, quite as sp2cific, and framed quite as in- telligently on modern lines as those which are law in other large cities. avery interesting story printed yesterday in a Tammany organ about the man who was said to resemble Theodore Roosevelt, and who, because of that re- semblance, was jostled by a crowd of hood- ity of Third avenue and One Hundred and Fifth street, New York. There was nothing pecullarly startling in the {dea that some of New York’s most dis- | orderly citizens, incited to disturbance by the comments of newspapers that have no sympathy whatever with honest municipal government, and who hate the very name of reform, should haye done thelr best to be disagreeable to the law-enforcing pres!- dent of New York's board of police commissioners. After sketching the mis- behavior of the crowd and relating how “the man who looked lke Roosevelt” made No response to the jears and threats of the throng, but instead quickened his pace, the antl-Roosevelt narrator sald that ‘before’ anything serious happened the man broke JULY ii, 1895-TEN PAGES. and sixth street elevated railroad station. The crowd chaded him, but he beat them to the steps,- He ran up and got aboard a down-town train.” The statement that the persecuted one fled took the stuffing out of the story at once, so far a8 those who know Theodore Rodsevelt Were concerned. ‘That Theodora Roosevelt ta fun is att easy probability, Zor his physical condition se2ms to ba admirable, but that he ala run from @ thenacing crowd is as nearly impossible @8 Would bé his nomination as Tammany’s next candidate fot mayor. Whenever there is trouble Theodore Roosevelt does not run, whether the battle be real or figurative, muscular or mental. Had the story stopped short with the announcement that Mr. Roosevelt had been annoyed by a multitude of the lawless variety, there was some chance of its being belleved, but when it alleged that Mr. Roosevelt ran away from those who were said to be engaged in an- noying him it practically committed sul- elde. —_—__+++____ New Yorkers seem to be very much pleased with the manner in which the underground-trolley system is working on the Lenox aveaue Hre. For several weeks past cars have been run: experimentally over the Lenox avenue road, but not until Tuesday was the public permitted to patron- ize the most: acceptable variety, at this time, of electrical rapid transit. The under- ground electrical system has rendered admirable service In this city and not all the criticisms that the disciples of the ugly and dangerous overhead troHey could ‘utter ever had the slightest effect on the minds of those who had watched the opera- tions of the U-street road. Today the Ninth street Ine of the Metropolitan ralil- road company !s almost completely equipped with an underground system that resembles very closely that which works so well. in New York city. Practical electricians are satisfied that these underground methods of street-car propulsion are in every respect superior to the overhead-trolley methods. They cost a little more for installation, but the difference in the construction account is not sufficient to discourage those capitalists who are willing to give the public just what the public wants, provided there seems to be promise of reasonable profit in the transaction, Like Washington, New York city has insisted that the overhead trolley with all its unsightliness and obstructive- ness should not be permitted to take pos- session of the streets and avenues, and now both communities are about to reap some of the benefits consequent upon their exercise of good common sense. The over- head system with its cumbrous accessories is merely a makeshift—only the initial ef- fort to apply a recenfly-harnessed force to practical street-car purposes—and there would be grave infpropriety in turning over to selfish investors the thoroughfares of a city which fs in very many respects the model for all other American cities. —___ ++ = —____ New York city has a school population of 329,756. Of that number 50,069 are classi- fied as truants. In this city the number of truants is comparatively small and may not exceed 5,000. People who are thankful for almost everything that happens may re- jeice that the estimated number of children improperly absent from the public schools 1s so small, but other people, who realize how much of danger to the community and the nation exists in ignorance, will un- doubtedJy clamor for a local compulsory educational law which will be strong enough to stand the tests likely to be ap- plied to it in the courts. It is. understood that some of those who are sincerely in- terested {n educational matters in Wash- ington will appeal to Congress next winter for the much-needed legislation to strengthen the existing law on the subject, and with reasonable hope of success. Five thousand uneducated boys and girls can do infinite mischief and can work great damage smong the 43,000 boys and girls who do go to school. ———_+ + +____.
