THE EVENING STAR, MON SDAY, AUGUST 12, 1895—TEN 6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY................ August 12, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES. Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regolar and permanent Family Circulation Much more than the combined eir- culation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it kas ne competiter. tol order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, Ictters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individunt connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorin! or Business Depart- ments, nccording to tenor or purpose. ‘There was good rews for Washingtonians in the interview with President David M. Newboll of the Washington and Baltimore .and Eckingten and Belt Lire railways, printed exclusively in Saturday's Star. The projected and soon to be constructed Wash- ington and Baltimore road has engaged in no controversies with the people of the national capital, and its management gives evidence of a strong and wise desire to secure the favor and support of Jocal pub- lie sentiment instead of its antagonism. The Eckington and Belt lines, on-the other hand, have caused a remarkably discom- forting series of disturbances, from which neither the stockholders nor the patrons of the roads have received any benefit. It is therefore pleasant to learn that the three roads are to be openly consolidated and operated as one, unde? a management pledges itself to correct the evils of Per- = which Washington has complained. haps the most important of the conclu: announced by Mr. Newbold was that wh dealt with the overhead-trolley nuisance. Mr. Newbold stated very emphatically that the corporation which has rezently ac- quired the Eckington and Belt properties recognizes the powerful public sentiment in Washington and in Congress adverse to the overhead trolley, and that the company proposes to install speedily on all its lines within this city a modern motor which will be entirely satisfactory to even the most critical of the many who insist that Wa: ington shall be a model city. Another ma- terial reform to which Mr. Newbold has voluntarily pledged himself is the restora- tion to its original status as a belt line of the road that is now a belt line only in name; this is undoubtedly due to the Rsson taught by a comparison of the receipts during the present summer and summers past; not even free transfers have sufficed to induce the return of hundreds of the men, women and children who habituatiy rode on the Belt when it was a belt indeed, but who when it was broken spent their money on other roads. As yet Mr. New- bold speaks without formal authority from the board of directors, but, as was stated in the interview, he is confident that the directors will sustain the views he holds and will support him in his endeavor to improve the business of the roads and to smooth down the ruffled feelings of the thousands of people whose affections have been alienated by miserable management. It is improbable that the president of the road would declare himself so positively unless he knew in advance that he voiced the sentiment of the directors. He would hardly mak a wild and unfounded’ guess at the action of a body which is, he de- clares, so soon to meet. Fortunately, both for the company and the public, it will not be necessary to await congressional action as to the proposed betterments; the parent company has funds enough and to spare to do all that is likely to be required of {t and it has authority suffic'ent upon which to proceed with the expenditures. The next two or three weeks will, it is declared, see Mr. Newbold’s as- surances take formal, practical shape. It is not at all likely that the pleasing prospects set forth by Mr. Newbold will fail to ma- terialize, for without those changes the company will be continually in the hottest kind of hot water. Washington will not submit in the matter of the overhead trol- ley; it will fight so long as a single one of the obstructive poles and wires remains on ary of the streets. A liberal management of the combined roads will be as profitable for the company as it will be gratifying to those from whom the company must de- rive whatever of financial advantage is obtainable. Rapid transit by underground motor will make the Belt road—operated as a belt—one of the best paying street-rail- road properties in the District, while atten- tion to the suburban business along the Eckington road will be mutually beneficial to the corporation and to those who are in- terested in suburban growth in that vicin- ity. This forward movement of the con- solidated roads is especially pleasing to ‘The Star. From the day when the overhead trolley first materialized into an ugly threat, The Star has been opposed to the granting of trolley privileges within the city limits, and now that the last and most obstinate local advocate of the trolley has apparently surrendered, The Star deems it proper to make mention of the pride which it justly feels in a victory to the consummation of which it has undoubtedly contributed more than any other factor. For the exclusive publication of the important news chapter on this topic on Saturday, The Star has no apologies to offer. The publication of news is The Star's business; the frequently ex- clusive publication of news has become a habit. —__ + «+ ____ Some of Chicago's newspapers are ex- tracting consigerable satisfaction from an idea that four companies of colored troops soon to be mustered Into the Illinois Na- tional Guard are the first colored troops ever enlisted in the national guard of this country. Chicago has always been am- bitious, and ts never so well pleased as when it leads the procession, but in this matter of colored national guardsmen it is at the rear. Here in the District of Co- lumbia we have had colored guardsmen ever since the passage of the new militia law; we have now a battalion of four com- panies which captured most of the honors at the recent brigade encampment at Fort Washington. Then there are colored troops in some of the southern states, cer- tainly in Virginia, Alabama, Georgia, Mary- land and North Carolina, while of the nerthern states Ohio, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island have companies composed of negroes. Of ‘course everybody {s perfectly willing that Chicago should enjoy to the full this, to Chicago, novel experience of having colored compantes In the Illinois kuard, but that the truth of history may be preserved it is necessary to call atten- ticn to the fact that Chicago is a long way down the line just now. ———_+ + —___ Up to the present time the Tammany Injun remains rather more to be feared than the Jackson's Hole product. ————_ ee Very properly the State Department is doing what it can to assist the Germz ment in securing possession of se: Germans who, after misbel Ives in their native land, m With all possible haste and secrecy to this y. There has never been any un- 3 here to do the right thing such ca nd there never should be any, but it would be only fair for Secretary Olney to direct German attention to the fact that the rights of American citizens man birth are frequently disregarde one of those eltizens returns to plac4 for a brief visit. Only a few ent of Cleveland, Ohio, r a much longer stay in Germany than he had figured upon when plenning his itinerary. This particular Citizen was a boy when, nine years ago, he | left his home in Reichanau. Returning to Reichanau recently, he was arrested and imprisoned, the absurd charge being that he had failed to serve three years in the German army. He was fined 200 marks and sentenced to forty days in jail. His Passport was of no apparent value at any stage of the proceedings, and no amount of entreaty could bring about a cleansing of the filthy cell in which he was im- mured. Finally appeal was allowed and being out on bail pending the hearing the accused decided that the better thing to do would be to escape; a determination which he promptly and successfuily put into operation. While in jail this resident of Cleveland—William Glaser—learned that an American citizen was in an adjoining cell and had been there for thirteen months, his offense also being failure to do army duty. It is undoubtedly true that many young men emigrate to the United States that they may by so doing avoid a burdensome legal requirement, but it would seem as though naturalization in the United States ought to completely re- move any such disability as that for which American citizens are unduly annoyed. — ee Washington's representatives at the tri- ennial conclave of Knights Templar, which is next to be in Boston, ovghtgnot to have very much trouble in convincing the cen- tral body that Templar headquarters in the United States should be established at the national capital; should be housed In a building which would be a credit to the wealthy and extremely powerful crganiza- tion which has so large a membership the whole world over and flourishes con ously in this city. Slowly but surely there is centralizing tendency in this direction. The seat of government has been on the Potomac for nearly a century, and conse- quent upon the location hére of the moviug forces of government have come ins tions of learning and a class of residents superior In every respect. Socially ington is much more attractive than any other city in the country, and so far as urban and suburban beauty and all around desirability is concerned, is without peer on the entire continent. Other and larger cities may insist upon what they believe to be their rights in this matter, but even the largest of the competitors {s merely local to the state in which it is. Washing- ton is the capital of the nation and belongs as much to Arizona as it does to Massa- chusetts. The Knights Templar should therefore be able to establish headquarters in this city without much difficulty; here all Americans are at home. + ¢- —____ If the Italian girl who, in a fit of rage, killed her worthless lover is to be killed, what will be done with the New York con- tractor who, thrcugh motives of pure greed, invited destruction to dozens of sober, in- dustrious men? ——_+ «+ ____ The President is receiving a good deal of advice as to the next nomination, to the effect that it is sometimes better to stand pat and bluff on a small pair than to draw for three of a kind.

The person who was asked to point out the most popular book of last year based on the circulation of copies would hardly be likely to hit upon. the right answer. It is not to “Trilby,” the graceful, nor the brave “Gentleman of France,” nor the “Prisoner of Zenda,” nor “Coin’s Financial School,” nor “Merrie England,” nor any of the books of the day that hold the record. All th with their 25,000 and 50,000 and 100,- ( of circulation, are far in the rear. The leader in books last year, as for all the years, was the Bible. The report of the American Bible Seciety for 1894 shows that this single organization printed and pro- Cured in the twelve months 1,05: coples of the book, and of these S45,.005 were circu- jated in America aud the rest in foreign lords. This is not supposed to be a day of much Bible reading or of willing faith, but a work that sells at the rate of over 800,000 a year in the United States after some centuries of circulation is not exactly to be considered as laid on the shelf.
