— THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. TUESDAY.,.................Suly 30, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES.............+ THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailles. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7Im 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. —— = The Star yesterday gave to the public, including the labor organizations, which Were especially interested in the matter and especially anxious to learn the truth, accurate information concerning the opin- fons of the District authorities in respect to the proposed requirement of District residence in workmen on municipal build- ings, and of the payment to each work- man by contractors of the maximum rate of wages. Through this interesting and important item of labor news the public learned that the Commissioners do not be- lieve that they have the power under the law to make the suggested stipulations in con- tracts for the erection of local public build- ings, and that a request for legislation must be made to Congress. That body might rea- sonably be expected to respond favorably to the request that ‘the payment of maxi- mum wages be required of contractors on the local public buildings. Those who be- leve that it would be for the public bene- fit to require such a contract stipulation— and this number includes The Star—will not of course yield to disappointment at the Commissioners’ decision, but will begin immediately an energetic campaign on new lines designed to secure from Congress the desired legislation. —_—_-+-¢ + ____- Some of these days the Spanish govern- ment will come sharply into collision with the American administration. Already has the display of sympathy for Cuba by in- dividual Americans aroused the Spanish ire very considerably—to how great an extent may not perhaps be known until the inter- national correspondence finds its way to Congress—but what has been will probably not compare with what is to be unless the administration does more than it has yet done to put a stop to filibustering by Amer- feans and from American ports. It has been claimed by the Spanish authorities that completely within two or three weeks were there withdrawal of the undefined but never- theless existent support which the revolu- tionists daily receive from the republic of the north. Of course, the government of the United States has nothing whatever to do with the subscriptions that are being made and the alleged arms and ammunition that are being shipped and the alleged ves- sels that are being equipped and manned at various points along our extensive and un- policed coast-line—there would be gross im- propriety in anything that could possibly be mistaken for direct antagonism to Spain —but the governmental lassitude which is charged and the ineffectiveness of the gov- ernmental activity can easily be accounted for by the fact that outside of the inner official circles there is outspoken friendship for the struggling Cubans. How many Americans are concerned in the fight for Cuban independence—which in time would he followed by annexation to the United States—cannot now be easily estimated, but it is certain that a considerable number of those who are not related to Cuba by birth or blood have allied themselves with the thousands of Islanders who, desiring to achieve liberty, are striking the blows them- selves. —___ + += ___ Within the past year or two there have settled in the state of Maryland many im- migrants who after further investigating the agricultu-al and ccmmercial conditions of the western and southern states came to the conclusion that this country offered to the willing worker no more desirable or promising field for operations than is in- cluded within the limits of the state out of which was carved the territory in which is the seat of national government. Most of those who nave recently located in Mary- land went of their own accord; thousands of other equally desirable immigrants could be induced to remain in this region if the Proper inducements were only held out. A prominent Marylander recently interviewed by the Baltimore Sun said: “Active and intelligently planned meas- ures would doubtless have the effect of di- recting to this state some part of that stream of reflex emigration of our own industrious population which is being driven back from the drought and storm- wasted regions of the west, and of reviving and revivifying our languishing farming interests. This is a subject which, in my opinion, démands and is worthy of the serious efforts of the executive and legis- lative authorities of the state.” Commenting upon Judge Fisher's sensible conclusions, The Sun calls attention to the fact that Maryland has a greater variety of soll than any other like area in the United States—soil that is fitted for the successful growth of all kinds of cereals, fruits and vegetables—from a shipping standpoint the geographical situation of the state is unexc2ll2d, the rail and water facil- ities being of the best. Just row Maryland soil may be purchased very cheaply, and this advantage in conjunction with the other advantages ramed and unnamed would surely induce immigration if the truth was only made plain to reputable people who are now suffering in some of the far western states; remote from such civilization as is common in Maryland and deprived of many of those privileges which are highly priz2d by intelligent Americans. —— - + oe It is hoped that the successor of Vice- President Schoepf of the Eckington Railway will be a Washingtonian, in order that the purposes of justice may not be embarrassed by the lack of a resident high official upon whom warronts in the trolley cases may be served. ——_~+ + __ Christmas cr New Year's would be a good time to begin to consider the garbage situation for the coming summer. _ + «2____ Just now, in many portions of the United Stat there is agitation favorable to a national law which shall provide that any person or persons who shall use the na- Uonal flag or a pattern thereof, either by printing, painting or otherwise attaching to the same any advertisement for public display or private gain, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and on conviction be fined in a sum not exceeding $1,000 or be im- prisoved for a term not exceeding one hundred days, or both, at the discretion of a district court of the United States. Be- hind the proposition to urge such legisla- tion by the Fifty-fourth Congress stand all the loyal and patrictic societies and individuals in the United States, so that It is not unreasonable to imagine that Con- gress will give to the matter the considera- tion deserved. That the flag for which countless thousands shed their blood has been wickedly desecrated will never be denied by anyone whose eyes are open and who walks abroad on the streets of any American city. The most cursory sort of investigation will reveal lack of real re- spect for the emblem of which all Ameri- cans are or ought to be sincerely proud. Of the stars and stripes, when they are Properly displayed, we cannot have too much, but when the colors and design of Old Glory are used for private purposes, Cuban insurrection would collapse | then there should undoubtedly be inter- ference by national statute.’ A committee of three Chicagoans Jotted down the fact whenever they saw misuse of the flag, and in a little while the members of the com- mittee reported that nearly one hundrd and fifty firms and individuals were, in that one city, using the flag for advertising pur- poses. Chimney-sweeps and circus clowns and street fakirs and prize-fighters deco- rated themselves with the colors; saloon- keepers, manufacturers of fire-works, sell~ ers of ice, dealers in fish and keepers of variety halls were among the muititude ergaged in the work of desecration. Surely there is enough artistic originality in the country to render the use of the national flag or any imitations thereof entirely un- necessary in advertisements; the commer- clalization of the stars and stripes, as well as their use for political purposes, should be directly prohibited. That there will be difficulty in securing the enactment of such a law as is needed is not at all likely. There is steady growth of venera- tion for the colors among the better ele- ments of this country’s population, and if these elements will only combine and ask Congress to forbid misuse of the flag, Congress will almost surely grant the re- quest at once. ——__~++—. Maybe It Is all right that the city post office is slow in construction. It is an ill wind that blows no good, and now after lcng search the benefit in the present situ- ation, which heretofore has been somewhat vague, comes to light. A writer in the Railway Review says that it has been known to builders of all ages that stone, even the hardest, needs to be seasoned before being put Into walls, just as wood must be so treated or exposed to the air for a time before use. He goes on to say that In the modern rush of nineteenth cen- tury building too little attention has been paid to this necessity. There is no fear that the local structure ts going to suffer by this negligent haste. It may. be that those in charge have -not taken this factor {nto consideration, but at all events it is now plain that there will be some measure of compensation in the leisurely pace that has been set on the new government building.
