E EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY....,,.,--August 28, 1895. a CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no compctitor. t7In order to avotd delays, on ac- counf of personal absence, letters to THE STAR shovld not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- nents, according to tenor or purpose. — = As might have been expected, the Com- missioners and the garbage contractor are at loggerheads over the garbage disposal system to be adopted. The latter, having been ayarded the contract at a fixed price irrespective of the cremation system to be employed, will naturally fight for abso- Iutely the cheapest method of burning the garbage which can be discovered. And since It Is cheaper to dump half-collected garbage into the river or deposit it upon Maryland farms than to cremate {t by any method It is to the interest of the con- tractor to delay in every possible manner the employment of any cremation or reduc- tion plant, and to prolong indefinitely, if he can, the period during which he or his brother Is paid at cremation rates far Merely dumping the garbage. The money has been appropriated by Congress to give to Washington absolutely the best system of garbage disposal in existence. The peo- le of the city want such a system and “they want it mighty quick.” They wili back up the Commissioners vigorously and unanimously in speedily installing the very best that can be found, and in refusing to sacrifice the public interest in response to the appeals of an already too greatly favored contractor. It has seemed to The Star that the ideal system of garbage disposal is that in use in a number of cities, by which the gar- bage fs reduced at plants located outside of the city’s limits. lected in metallic receptacles swung as a cart body on wheels, which are lifted un- opened to specially prepared cars, or to barges, for transportation to the reduction works, or in emergencies are hauled there on the carts without change. ‘The re- ceptacles are not opened and no odors can escape until the garbage is dumped into the reduction works. Several crematories and the best redue- tion plants ean be so operated as not to taint the air with foul oders, even in their immediate vicinity, But there is a strong popular prejudice, reasonable or unreasona- ble, against either a reduction or crema- tion plant in the settied portions of a city, and there 1s almost certain to be constant agitation against such an establishment by those living in the nelghborhood. If a reduction plant is used the fact that the Profits of the business will depend upon the amount of garbage collected, reduced and utilized will tend to cause the most thor- ough collection of the garbage, and the Most complete cleansing of the city, and the profits from the sale of reduction pro- ducts will compensate for the additional expense of transmitting the garbaxe in tightly closed receptacles outside of the city’s mits. At some time Washington may, it is hoped, enjoy the benefits of a method which best purifies the back yards and alleys, least offends the nostrils of citizens, and best promotes the community's health while drawing the least from the com- munity’s pocket-book. There is much, however, to be sald in favor of garbage disposal by cremation, which the Commiszioners have apparently adopted, and the poorest, crudest crema- tery is a thovsand times better as a garb- ege-disposer than a nuisance-breeding river- dump or farm deposit. Washington will, therefore, wish to the Commissioners speedy suecess in their efforts to instal an im- Proved system Since there is no inducement under a cremation system to make a thorough col- lection of the garbage, it will be the more necessary for the Commissioners to pro- vide for thcrough supervision and inspec- tion of the manner in which the contractor performs his duties, and above all to secure, first, a garbage contract which will hold water, and then to vigorously enforce it, The garbage contractor of the discredit- able past has never apparently believed himzelf bound to anything in particular by the documents which he has signed, and as the grossest violations and even abroga- tion of a garbage contract have never been adequately punished there has been no reason why the contractor should feel it necessary to do arything which he did not please to do. As a matter of fact and of law, when a man contracts to remove and dispose of all the city’s garbage in an agreed manner and at a fixed price, he 1s bound to do it whether he makes money in the operation or not, and if the contract 4s properly drawn and adequate bonds- men are required, he cannot compel the ecmmunity to permit him to slight his’ 2on- tract dutfes at pleasure, on the pretext that he is losing money, by the threat cf abrogating the contract and of quitting work entirely. —_—__~+2___ Corbett and Fitzsimmons may save them- s®lves and their backers considerable ex- Pense and avoid an irksome period of train- ing by corresponding with Governor Cul- berson and securing from him his “inside” opinion as to whether he is going to per- mit that fight to come off at Dallas or any- where else within Texan territory. All the indications now are that the governor and the sheriff of Dallas county are entirely in accord witii each other, and both of them opposed to the prize fight. This will doubt- less be cheering news for both pugilists, for while they have done a little fighting in times past it has somehow or other become a deeply-grounded, popular impression that neither of them 1s at all anxious to meet the other within the ropes. The close at- tention paid by these sluggers to their theatrical engagements tends to the crea- tion cf an impression that while they may be doing a great work in elevating the stage they are irretrievably damaging the profession of prize fighting. ee ‘The Holt will mystery promises to result qa @ great variety of legal complications ne likely to have {ts principal habitat £ the courts for many years to come, but its special immediate influence will be to five powerful impetus to the concoction of Getective stories and tales of mystery and such-like contributions to modern literature. ———_< e-___ Less than one hundred men are at work today on the city post-ofllce building, al- though there prevails excellent weather for building purposes, a Whether the money question is being handled by representative capitalists or by hose who claim to represent labor, there ms to be an unfortunate tendency to- ward further contraction of the already mtracted currency. Recently there has fe @ deliverance on national finance by Benedict, President Cleveland’s inti- t@ friend, and one of the powers of Wall treet, Mr. Benedict wants greenbacks re- from ofroulation, and he gives what believes to be sound reasons for the ex- tence of the falth which he alleges ts yeti be him, Not long ago, General Master (reese Sovereign of the Knights cf ft assailed the national bank notes and dered @ boycott of those useful aids to The garbage ts col- | THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 28, 1895—~TWELVE PAGES, the easy transaction of business. Securely held between these two mill-stones, what will the people do? Should Congress legis- late favorably on Mr. Benedict's proposi-. tion, the greenbacks would immediately vanish, and if this disappearance chanced to be coincidental with the success of Mr. Sovereign's boycott on national banknotes there would then exist a condition so ex- tremely embarrassing as to be cause for rave concern. The only remedy that could possibly be srggested—provided, of course, that there were no paper substi- tutes for the currency destroyed or un- available—would be silver, and any school boy may easily figure out for himself how business would be affected by fifty-cent dollars which had behind them in the Treasury Department nothing more sub- stantial than other fifty-cent dollars. To some people greenbacks are evidently ob- Jectionable, while other folks feel an- tipathy toward notes issued by national banks; but it is certain that we must have many millions more of reliable “promises to pay” than we now have, even if in the procuring and circulation thereof we in- jure the sensitive feelings of both Mr. Benedict and Mr. Sovereign. —____-+ e+ —____ A number of men were at work yester- day morning improving the water supply of Wapakoneta, Ohio, but there was disagree- ment as to wages or hours and a strike followed. The strikers at once announced that n> one would be permitted to toil on the waterworks untif their demands had been acceded to. Lewis Vansciver, how- ever, continued to toil, and as he did not desist in his endeavors to earn a living for himself and his family a crowd of strik- ers attacked him with clubs and shovel- handles and other available weapons. Van- sciver stood this treatment as long as he | felt called upon to do so, and then, his life being in danger, he drew and fired a re- volver, killing one of his assailants and wounding two others. It might reasonably be supposed that experience would have taught the strikers that no matter how just their cause they had no right to as- sault any one who declined to associate himself with them in their effort to secure what they belleved to be a right. If strik- ers haye the best of the argument they will, as a rule, be successful, provided they do not alienate public sympathy by the Megal use of force. The throwing of a brickbat, the firing of a shot, the overturn- ing of a car, the burning of a house have many times turned the tide of public senti- ment against strikers when, until the com- mittal of the overt act, everything was going in their direction. The right to work unmolested by violence is as unalienable an American right as the right to quit work in company with one’s organized asso- clates, whenever so disposed. Sheriff Bowers of Colorado has won fame by the manner in which he stood between the governor and the bull fight. If Corbett and Fitzsimmons really fean business they might see what could be done toward locating him in Texas. —__+--+____ Whatever may be his real sentiments about a third term, the President can with certainty be depended on to realize that it will be becoming to hang back and be coaxed a little. —_——_+++___ The Agricultural Department's report showing that all milk contains germs was only to be expected.

The Inequality of Fortune. “It’s r’al’y discouragin’,” sald Farmer Corntossel, as he laid down his paper. “What is?” inquired his wife. “Ter see “so many first-class patriots thet don’t git ter be nothin’ higher’n fourth- class postmasters. No Outstanding Obligations, “Did Senator Sorghum get his office hon- estly?” “Honestly!" exclaimed the political worker. “I should say so. He paid fur everything he got; doesn’t owe fur a single vote.” No Demand for Him. “I see dat ’Rastus Pinkley’s done got home agin,” said one young woman. “Yas,” replied the sage of Watermelon Square; “I knowed he wasn’ gwinter las’ long when he stahted.”” “Whah’s 'e bin?” “Bin erway settin’ up in bus’ness foh hisse’f.

He doesn’t seem amused by the trifies at which all the rest of us laugh.” ‘No. That’s just what I noticed. He doesn’t seem amused by anything. He just waits till he thinks nobody is watching him and writes them down on his cuff.” “Sonry,” said Uncle Eben, “'tain’t nufin’ ter yer credit dat yoh doan’ know ez much ez yoh sometimes ’magines. Ef yoh did, yoh'd prob'ly scoot along so fas’ in dis yer wurl’ dat yoh'd git ‘sassinated bke Julius Caesar.” Looking Forward.

He thought the tobacco habit was the cause of his trouble, but when he ceased smoking the pulsations of the s heart were more violent than ever. Mr. Allen Is a registered chemist of Lynn, Mass., and at second thought he concluded that if tobacco wasn't the cause It must be acute dyspepsia. His knowledge of chemistry naturally prompted him to tuke Ripans Tabules, well knowing their efficacy in disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. Quick relief followed, and now there Is no more distress In the region of his heart. But the remarkable part of Mr. Allen's experience follows: He decided to forego smoking anyhow, and disccvered that Ripans Tubules not only satisfied the longing for tobacco, which all smokers are familiar with, but at first he actually looked forward with pleasure to the three periods each day when he took the Tabules. Mr. Allen no lorger emokes, and, has no desire to, nor does he take the Tabules, He is a well man, and does not need medicine of any kind.
