THE EVENING STAR ha regal: permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailtes. As a News and Advertising Medium ft has no competitor. C7 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 Busine: Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. Legally there has been no such thing as an overhead trolley railroad within the city limits since June 30. Just now the law is being defied, with the unwilling assist- ance of the courts, but in the course of time the defiance will not avail, for the Statute is surely going to be enforced and the obstructing poles and dangerously- exposed wires must inevitably come down. This result, however, might reasonably be expected even were there absence of the legislation by which Congress sought to compel the Eckington company to abate the nuisances that disfigure New York ave- nue, for in business, as in all other lines of human endeavor, the fittest must survive. From the electrical standpoint the fittest motor is that variety which is now ready to be operated on the Ninth street line. Early this morning two of the new motor cars of the Metropolitan road ran over the entire Ninth street route without interrup- tion and in a manner entirely satisfactory to even the most critical of the road's officials. Skilled electricians have scruti- nizel the plans and mechanism and are convinced that the system must be com- pletely successful. There is no reason why it should not be, for it is an Americanized adaptation of a system that has worked with admirable smoothness in one of the principal cities of Europe for several years; every charge that has been made seems to be a decided betterment, so that it Is en- tirely reasonable to conclude that the ingeniously-amended ideas which were financially profitable in their comparatively crude state will be operated much more successfully here. Therefore there is noth- ing premature or visionary in the state- ment that the overhead trolley will here- after be relegated to the suburbs by every wide-awake community. The Metropolitan Company has come up through great tribu- lation and deserves the gratitude of the public for the persistent manner in which it has endeavored to give to Washington the most modern variety of rapid transit. For nearly ten years officers of the com- pany have experimented with electricity as a motive force; today the company mi fairly congratulate Itself upon the achleve- ment of a success which gives the double assurance of satisfactory service and rea- sonable dividends. —____ e=_____ Information from Atlanta is to the effect that a committee of Atlanta's representa- tive citizens is preparing to visit New York for the purpose of conferring with President Spencer of the Southern Railway relative to the Atlanta-proposed transfer from this city to Atlanta of the Southern Railway's headquarters. No rational being would have any difficulty whatever in un- derstanding why the Atlantans want to have the headquarters offices in their city; their desire is to add to Atlanta’s popula- tion and commercial repute and to exalt Atlanta’s horn as much as possible. These are about the only reasons the Atlanta committee can pessibly urge in behalf of their request, so it does not seem to be even distantly probable that President Spencer will d» any more than treat the committee courteously and promise to take the re- quest into consideration. To move the headquarters offices to Atlanta would sim- ply be to add nearly a thousand miles to the distance to be traveled from the great railroad and business centers of the At- Tantic coast. Not so very long ago the offices in question were located in the city that wants them again, but the inconven- fences suffered by the railroad officials by reason of the comparative inaccessibility of Atianta brought about return to Wash- ington. As railroads are rarely or never governed by sentiment the chance for At- Janta’s success in this matter is as one in million, and infinitesimal at that. — +e ___ In view of the distractingly-jumbled con- dition in which the local garbage collec- tion and disposal problem seems to be, might it not be a good thing for the Dis- trict Commissioners to make a fresh start. In the present perplexing situation the slate is covered with a confused mass of almost undecipherable hieroglyphics. The remedy will be found in a metaphorical sponge, sufficiently molst and vigorously operated or the slate’s surface. Let the malodorous past be disinfected and buried. Give the best modern methods of garbage disposal a chance ard, uninfluenced by po- litical or personal considerations, confer upon the national capital the blessing of @ garbage service economically effective. —___+++—____ It would for obvious reasons be impossible to secure from Congress a statute confin- ing work upon our municipa! public build- ings to residents of the District. It may be that the Commissioners will discover that there are sound reasons for not making this requirement as to local residence a formal stipulation in contracts for such work. But local pride and the intertwining of local interests will Inevitably give the Freference to local workmen, other things being equal; and if contractors are required to employ the best workmen at the maxi- mum wages other things will be equal, for the strongest temptation and inducement to import cheap, Inferior workmen from outside the city will be thereby removed. —____+ + ____ No doubt some of the friends whom the Jackson City gamblers have made in Wash- ington will be willing to come to their material assistance in the event of a sup- pression of thelr occupation by the Virginia authorities. —___+++______ Whenever there 1s serious proposition to render state troops more efficient by such means as those proposed in bills presented to Congress in recent years for the reor- ganizaticn of the National Guard, there !n- variably ensues a great clamor over the dangers of centralization and federaliza- tion. Frem all sorts of places there bob ftp champicns of states rights who insist that the militia forces of the respective states shall be permitted to do precisely as they respectively please without ony regard whatever for efficiency or anything else that seems to be serious in its nature. Now comes informgtion frem the west that the Wyoming National Guard has been or- dcred to hold itself in readiness to move in the direction of a disturbing band of In- dians. The Wyoming Natloral Guard ts probably composed of most excellent ma- terial—active, vigorous men, in whom awells the martial spirit of which there must needs be a good deal to make a cam- paign againat Indians successful—but it ts evident from the official records that the Wyoming National Guard is of practically little value as a military ferce. The bu- 1eau of military infcrmation of the War Department makes this plain. Ir. its latest report. All told, the entire command num- bers but 450 men; nine companies of in- fantry and one battery of light artillery. Som> of the Infantry companies are armed with the old ‘W-caliber Springfield rifte, while others have the 45-caliver; nelther the 50-caliber nor the 45-caliber companies have anything ike an adequate supply of ammunition, and, if they had, the chances for the cartridges being mixed are many. ‘The light battery has two three-inch guns of the model of 1861, and these could not be transportsd through the Indian country by any less force than fifty clever en- gineers, with the essistance of a practi- cally inexhaustible supply of good horses. There are, however, no horses in the serv- ice of the state, nor is there arly appropria- tion for purchasing or hiring any. There is no appropriation ror provision for the pur- chase of stor2s; there is no Fospital corps and no signal corps. Of the extremely im- Portant matter of guard duty the command must be practically ignorant, for there has not been any encampment of the state trecps since 1892. With the various com- panies widely scattered—they being sta- tioned at tea widely-separated points—the drill duty performed is necesgarily of the Frimary sort. There are no pre-arranged Plans in the office of the adjutant general of the state for the use of the troops in case of an emerg2ncy; the state does not own transportation fecilities of any kind, nor has any provision teen made for pro- viding them when an exigency arises; there has been so little attention paid to Possible contingenvies that the state does not even own a military map of its terri- tory. It would be extremely unreasonable to expect the Wyoming Naticnal Guard to render anything like fairly effective service while such conditions prevail as are out- ined in the report of the army officer who is on duty as :nspector in Wyoming. It is to be hoped that the Indians will not prove to be hostile, but It is also to be hoped that either state pride or national legislation will soon give to Wyoming and to other states that are careless in this important matter something like the militia efficiency which they ought to have. —____+ «2____ It is strange that the contributions to the conscience fund in the Treasury Depart- ment rarely run higher than twenty-five or thirty dollars.

Right in His Line. “This trolley road is a great undertak- ing,” remarked the garrulous cit!zen. “Yes,” was the reply; “I have ample reason to know that.” “Why?” “Fm in the undertaking business myself.” A Complete Surprise.

Gueaned It. “They tell me you have been trying stocks?” “Yes, was the response of the sad hearted; “I made a purchase on a margin a few weeks ago.”” “Was it a good buy?” “Yes.

I'm what you might call a negative patriot.” “I don’t quite catch your meaning.” “{ have conscientiously abstained from springing any freak financial schemes on my fellow citizens.” —____+ + -_____ Electrocution of Shade Trees. From the Chicago Record. It is a question whether the stringing of electric wires in cities and villages will not destroy a large proportion of the shade trees. Complaint is made in several citles that where the wires pass through the foliage the trees in nearly every instance have died, presumably from the effects of the electric current. It has been noticed also that the death of the trees almost in- variably follows a season of rain, when the wet leaves are gccd conductors of elec- tricity and carry it frcm the wires to =he trees. In some cases the death of trees has been caused by wires supposed to be thor- oughly insulated, the covering having been rubbed off the wires by the friction of the branches when moved by the wind. The evidence that the trees have been killed by electricity is furn!shed by the fact that in numberless instances the trees through which the wires pass died in an hour dur- ing a storm, while those standing a few feet from the wires were uninjured. These results will raise the question as to the liability of electric light companies for the damage caused by the killing of shade trees. The right to string electric wires does not give the further right to destroy the shade trees, which may constitute the chief value of a piece of real estate. Neither dces it give the right to lop off the branches and otherwise disfigure ornamental trees simply because such branches happen to be in the way of the wires. This has been done by an electric light company in one of our suburban villages, and many large and beautiful trees have been practically ruined by such vandalism. This destruc- tion of trees is quite likely to lead to ex- pensive litigation before a property owner’s right to receive damages for his loss is established by the courts. A’ good deal of trouble could be avoided if electric light- ing and power companies would take pains to place their poles and string their wires so as rot to Interfere with the ornamental trees along their lines. ——___ ++ Incomplcte Analysis.
