6 THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, AUGUST 29, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. ING STAR. NGTON. - August 29, 1895. THE EVEN SHI W THURSDAY CROSBY S. NOYES. Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regalar and permanent Family Cireulation much more than the combined cir- enintion of the other Washington dnijics. As a News and Advertising Medium it has ne competitor. ©7In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personnal absence, letters to THE STAR should not he addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Eilitorinl or MRusiness Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. Washington ts deenix interested in the controversy just now being waged between the Pennsylvania Railrodd Company and the Metropolitan Street Railway Company. ‘The Metropolitan Company demands that the Pennzylvania trains shall stop bezore crossing the Metropolitan tracks on Four and a Half street, claiming that, with condi- tions as they now are, there is momentary probability of a collision which :nay have serious results and even cause some great ca'amity. The Star has always inslsted— whenever there was promise that the in- sistence was likely to attract the attention ef those who have within them the power of workirs reform—that until these death- traps are entirely abolished, steam rail- Teads ought to be compelled to provide every necessary safeguard at gride cross- ings, including gates and watchmen; trains should at least decrease their speed, and had really better be stopped than endanger even a single human life. The use of sur- face tracks means, in any event, an in- crease of the railroad’s schedule time, and the greater the inconvenience to the road from the compulsory slow running of its trains over such tracks, the quicker wil! the decision of the road to elevate or de- press the tracks be carried into effect. In- terference with railrcad transit at grade- crossings is no more objectionable than the irterference with street traffic resulting from the operation of a steam railroad at grade. Several times during the past few years The Star has presented figures show- ing accurately the quantity of apparent damage done by the temporary and some- times Iong-continued obstruction of public streets by railroad trains, and It {s fair to presume that like obstruction continues and will continue until the steam railroad com- ponies do what they have long been urged to do, viz.: either elevate or depress their tracks so that thalr trains may be operated at full speed without danger to persons who are neither their employes nor patrons, and without Interference with street travel and traffic. The real remedy of the evil is to hold the roads to their pledges to wdolish the grade-crossings. During the last session of the Fifty-third Congress there was intro- duced in the Senate a bill which provided for the depression of the Pennsylvinia Railroad Company's tracks, the measure having been framed by the railroad com- psny itself. Some of the bill's features were not just what conservative Washing- tonlans would have liked them to be, but it was Indicated that at the proper time it would be moulded into an entirely satis- foctory shape. No apparent effort was however, to advance the bill toward int where Congressional action was Promises have, bowever, been y legislators who are desirous of eliminating the grade-crossings from the daily life of Washington, and it may be that these promises will materialize before the Fifty-fourth Congress adjourns. On the pert of the Baltimore and Ohio Company— whose grade-crossings are every whit as ob- jectionable as those of the Pennsylvania— assurances have been given that at the car- lest possible date the B. and O. tracks within the so-called clty limits will be prop- erly elevated. When the next Coneress or- ganizes there will surely be sincere and pertinacious effert by representative Wash- ingtonians in behalf of congressional regu- lations which will reader unnecessary any @sagreement between the steam and street railroads in the District of Columbia, and settle also the struggle over grade-cross- ings between the people and the steam rail- road corporations. —___+ + —___ One of the main reasons why Quay came out victorious in yesterday's contest was the distrust on the part of the people of the state generally of the combine of munt- cipal bosses which would practicatly have controlied the state as well as the muni- cipalities had the Harrisburg convention overthrown Quay. The action of the con- vention was not so much a mortifying defeat of Governor Hastings and other anti-Quay men of his stripe as it was a declaration adverse to certain ward politi- cians who had prospered mightily in the cities and who thought that the broadening of their fleld would add much to their financial health. For that reason people who (lo not care two straws about Senator Quay—viewing him as a boss in certain respects highly objectionable—are inclined to be glad because several conspicuous schemers against the welfare of every one outside of their own inner circle have been defeated. —_—.--+ « = —___ While those District wage-earners who hed expected to march behind the Marine Band in the Labor Day parade will justly complain because the band has arbitrarily been ordered to precede the letter carriers in the parade at Philadelphia next Monday, it dees not appear as if we Washingtonians could very well help ourselves. The band is controlled absolutely by the Secretary of the Navy and in his absence by the Assistant Secretary, and when a big crowd of voters must be pleased then the voteless have left them nothing more than the privilege of kicking. It is too bad that the Marine Band, which is so essentially a Washington institution, should not make appearance here next Monday. ———_ wee —__- Washington Knights Templar seem to have covered themselves with glory in Bos- ten, That is a way most Washington or- ganizations have whenever they go away from home. Only when our baseball team leaves the city to play are there any fears for the good repute of the National Capital. -—___—_ —- It 1's contended that Theodore Roosovelt {3 to discriminate as to “how a law Is to be enforced” This simply means that he is to decide whether all of the law shall be enforced or not, It is too great a re- sponsibility for any young man to assume, off-hand. — The prospect of cremating garbage should not subside into the mere chance of Its getting sunburnt, —__ + e+ -___ Marvelous indeed is it that such a large number of local bicyclists can ride over this city’s streets with so much of speed and of apparent carelessness and yet do so Uttle damage to those of thelr fellows who ‘walk. The number of ccllisions is amaz- ingly few, but it can hardly be that this good fortune will continue; some of these days there will be a real catastrophe and then, in response to a great popular out- ery, the police will, for a time at least, put 4 stop to the racing which takes place al- Most every minute on some of Washing- ton’s principal thorougbfares. The Star does not suggest to bicyclists that five or six miles an hour should be the limit of Bpeed but it does insist that fifteen or élghteen miles an hour is much too fast and should be discouraged by the officers of the law, The offenders are not as a rule per- song who have reached that time of life when wise judgment has fully developed; they are mostly young men who seem to forget that there must be a broad dis- tinction between the thoroughfares of a large city and a race track. It is claimed that the police cannot possibly overtake and arrest cyclists who are addicted to “scorching” on the public streets, and the claim is a good one so long as the police are afoot, but there would not be any trouble at all in catching some of the con- splcuous misdemeanants if ten or a dozen of the more active members of the force were mounted upon wheels; as The Star some time ago suggested they should. This plan works well enough in other cities, and the time has come for it to be given a trial here. , —_—_—_+ + +____ All sorts of uncomplimentary things have been and will be said about Senator Mat- thew Stanley Quay, but no one will allege that he lacks political ability of the most peacticaliy successful sort. His power in Pennsylvania and national politics is un- questionably great—so conceded by every one whe knows recent Pennsylvania his- tory; what the public generally would iike to know is how will Mr. Quay use his enor- mous strength. ——_+ e+ ____ Sidewalk merchants will hardly go so far as to present any such claim to the public thoroughfares as the trolley people set up. ———_ + + _____ When Niagara Falls is successfully har- nessed it may pay our !nyentors to interest themselves in utilizing the tremendous waste cf energy at a political convention. —___+ «+ —___ The New York contractor whose building fell down pleads an ignorance of what was going on that should have been sufficient to wreck an ordinary business in six months. —__ + «+ The smoke of other battles having cleared it is now in order to wonder what Senator Hill proposes to do with his state conven- tion. —____-+ + _____ The barbed-wire trust is once more in a pesition to make it unpleasant for anybody who runs up against it. —— _ + + + ___ Smokeless powder is a great invention, but it is no more deadly than the noiseless boom is likely to be. —___ + e + ____ Ninety-one men were employed on the city post office building today. —___<+ = —____ SHOOTING STARS.

Reconsidered. “Grabkins doesn't want anything but the earth,” said the sarcastic man. “You're wrong there,” replied his cynical frierd. “Grabkins used to be that way, but somebody told him that the earth is the smallest of thg planets, and he has changed his mind.” Ignis Fatuaus. There was a sadness in his eye; a disap- pointed stare, Which told of fond illusions that had melted into air; Of golden promises that proved all fleeting and untrue; Of bubbles that had burst just when most radiant they grew. His staff was broken, and he sat, a disfp- pointed man. He murmured, “There is naught but sad deception in life’s span.” Gaze now on Folly's victim and your taunts unsparing hurl— I'm the man who went a-seeking for the picture-paper girl. Great Schools in Washington. From the Baitimore American, The first werk on the great Protestant Episcopal Cathedral at Washington is the foundation for the Hearst School for Girls. pe gift of the widow of Senator Hearst of California. This spiendid enterprise, long the ambition of thousands of Episcopaliaus has come to a forma! beginning under the able and friendly management of Bishop Paret. It will be many years tefore it is fully realized, but it is now certain that a fine cathedral will be erected at the nation’s capital. The American University, the broad and national undertaking of the Methodists, which Bishop Hurst has so ably directed, grows closer to a reality every day. Money, gifts of land and encourage- ment are coming to it from all parts of the country. It will not be a denominational institution, but a high university in the best sense. The Catholic University is pros- pering, and is increasing in attendance, material resources end educational impor- tance all the time. The Columbian Uni- versity has a fine reccrd of usefulness, end it progresses to a larger activity every year. timore is glad to see these irsti- tutions growing. —_-_-- e=__—_ The President's Silence.
