ne THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY........September 4, 1895. 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 nilics. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. tin order to avoid aciays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any indtyidual connected with the office, but simply te THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. No Quarter for the Trolley. An Interesting point of Washington‘s anti-trolley struggle is at hand. Through The Star’s vigilance and its unrelenting warfare upon the varied trolley schemes, rot only have the frequent efforts to ex- tend the system in the capital been exposed and baffled, but legislation has been se- cured, recently pronounced effective by the courts, which breaks the slight foothoid obtained by the trolley upon Washington streets and expels it completely from the national capital. It Is an immediate and urgent duty of the Commissioners to ap- ply this law. Illegal trolley poles and wires still obstruct the streets, and the re- sponsibility Is upon them alone. They should perform their duty, exercise their power and enforce the’law, or give to the public some good reason for their ap- parent willineness to become the acces- sories of admitted lawbred&ers. A short time ago the president of Washington's trolley road in a very frank and significant interview in The Star abjured the trolley, so far as this city is concerned, and an- nounced certain important improvements upon the lines under his management, in- cluding the provision of unobjectionable transit upon the Belt and Eckington ‘ays. He promised to recreate the old Helt line, doing away with the numerous transfers necessary under the present dis- jointed system, and the work of erecting an additional stable and of securing additional horses to perfect this improvement is under way. While President Newbold is increasing stabling facilities and buying horses he ought to continue these labors until pro- vision is made for running horse-cars over the New York avenue line, merging it with the G street line, and changing to the trol- ley at Boundary. The making of the Belt line a belt line in fact is a great public benefit, but its effect in securing deserved public favor will be insignificant in compar- ison with that of the prompt obedience to the law and the complete renunciation of the trolley, which would be evidenced by immediate removal of the New York ave- nue poles and wires. Mr. Newbold should at once either put on horses and take down the poles, or begin the work of excavating for the underground trolley. It is evident that a single word of vigorous suggestion from the Commissioners would under exist- ing circumstances elicit immediately one of these alternative courses from the Ecking- ton railway. —— The Sewers and the Roots. direct inference from the report Beach on the condition of the sewers of the District, which was printed in last evening’s Star, ts that no time should be lost in the installation of the new and comprehensive system of sewers prop 1 for Washington. There is nothing to startle the people of the District in Capt. Beach’s statement that the sewers le here thirty years ago are now in a deplorable condition, owing to original faulty construction and to the intrusion of roots from the shade trees planted along the curbs. That fact has been patent for many years and has been one of the chief arguments for the reconstruction of the city’s sewers. It is apparent that the evil fs growing worse each year and the damage to property and the menace to health in- cre It is probable that no plan can ever be devised to prevent the attraction of roots of thi ade trees to the moisture of a sewer pipe, for this is one of the phe- nomena of nature that can only be avoided by the destruction of the trees, But the pipe could be so constructed as to prevent the intrusion of the root into the pipe, where, under the influence of the moisture constantly present there, it speedily grows so as to fill the space intended for the flow of the sewage. Modern sewer pipes are greatly superior in these respects to those that were obtainable twenty years ago and the science of sewer-building is advanced far beyond the degree of effi- ciency known at that time. Washington is essentially a modern city and should have a modern equipment of sewers. Patch- Work is more disastrous in such a depart~ ment of the city’s conveniences than any ether. It will never do to think of cutting down the trees lining the streets that make Washington pre-eminently beautiful among American cit The remedy is to provide @ rogt-proof system of sewers, modern, comprehensive and free from the faults of cheap and careless construction. —— ere is all this assault upon cherished mand honored legend going to stop? We have seen the dear story of William Tell turn to pieces; the apple peeled, cored and stewed to shapeiessness over the hot fire of investigation. We have suffered a sony at the questions that have been over the authenticity of the cherry- The of Capt. hington. And now comes the awful declaration that Casablanca was a myth and never had a burning deck to stand on! A halt must be called, or some wretch will next conie along and assert that St. Patrick never drove the snakes out of Jreland. ——_+ e+ ______ The summer girl has never been more gressly caricatured than she has this sea- sen in some of the journals, which insist on printing enormous pictures without rhyme or resson. “The melancholy da: will be less sorrowful for the disappear- ance from the public prints of those libels on the’ daintiest products of nineteenth century civilization. ——_ + « + __ Some of the southern editors are mani- festing a disposition to shout for cotton as @ monetary standard.

As long as the steam railroads entering the city of Washington insist upon ad- hering to the obsolete system of grade crossings, {t is the least that can be ex- pected that every such point of danger shall be guarded by gates and watchmen at all hours of the day and night, but the letter of President Fucker of the Northeast Washington Citizens’ Association to the District Commissioners is conclusive evi- ence that the Baltimore and Ohio road tg deliberately neglecting some of the most important crossings on its line, Massa- chusetts avenue and G street are important thoroughfares and are the arteries of a Great amount of traffic crossing the tracks. A tithe of the money that will eventually be mulcted from the corporation in dam- @gea ag the result of accidents at these points would far more than pay the expens: ef constantly maintaining a corps of Watchmen, It is ne excuse for the contpany to claim that the tracks are comparatively free from use after nine o'clock at night, as there is the most urgent need of a watchman if but a single traia should cross these streets after dark. While the accident at Langdon last night by which Mr. McIntire lost his life appears to be attributable to his own fault, that sad event points once more to the need of fences along the railroad tracks throughout the suburban territory. The New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad runs either within a sunken viaduct or between impassable fences for a sreat distance out- side of the city of New York. The design is to continue this system of fencing all the way to New Haven, a distance of about 75 miles, although this will involve an enormous expense to the company. In con- sequence of th!s equipmeat cxpress trains are permitted to run at the highest rate of speed from startirg point to terminus re- gardless of towns or cities through which they may pass. Gates are opened for the admission of passengers to the platforms at the proper intervals, and no one is allowed to cross the tracks under any cir- cumstances, access being nad from one side of the tracks to the other by bridges. This modern equipment, which is the rule in Europe, should be reg:urad from every railroad running into American cities of any considerable size. ———__> + +____ An Official Record of *Vills. The corfusion over the will of the late Judge Holt brings up a very pertinent ques- tion. Why should not there be a law re- quiring an official record to be mate of every will, within a certain period after its formulation, noting at least the fact that a will has been drawn, and giving the Gate and names of testator and witnesses? Tha last will and testament of the owner of preperty is probably the most important document to which he attaches his signa- ture. It is the keystone of future fortunes and too often the cause of endless litigation and of a deplorable waste of money. No real estate transaction is ever viewed as satisfactorily complete until the formal re- ecrding of the deed. Why should thre not be a record of certain facts concerning all wills, since the latter often have ihe effect of a consolidation of numerous deeds? A theory in the present case is that Judge Holt made a will later than and quite dif- ferent from the document which has re- ceptly been so mysteriously unearthed, but of this there is no present trace. Such a complication would have been wholly atoided by the simple filing of a record of the will at once after it was drawn, and this record being permanent, there could be no possibility of doubt as to the clear fi.tentions of, the testator. It would not be necessary, under such a system, for the con- tenis cf a will to be made known to the pub- lic, and statutory exceptions to the require- ment concerning record could be provided wherever appropriate, as in the case of wills drawn shortly before death. —____+ ¢ = -—__—__ Standard O11 vs. Gas Company. Unquestionably the letter sent to the Washington Gas Light Company by the president of the Standaré Oil Company in reference to the relations between those two corporations, a copy of which appeared in last evening’s Star, will have consider- able influence upon the minds of the na- tional legislaters when the question of a dollar gas supply to the citizens of Wash- ington is revived next winter, as {t wll in- evitably be. Now is the ripe time for the gas company to anticipate the course of events by voluntarily reducing the price of gS, as was practically promised by the company at the last session of Congress. It is certainly the part of wisdom for the local corporation to anticipate the reduc- tion of the price, in part if not wholly, that is demanded by the change of conditions in gas production and consumption through- out the country. It might prove to be the stitch in time that saves nine, for a de- creased annual profit for a long period of years would surely be better than a gon- tinuance of the old exorbitant rates for a while, followed by the loss of everything. —___ + 2_____ Wanted, a Hero. The frightful accident near Brooklyn Menday afternoon would have been averted, ft is said, by the presence of a man of heroic meld upon the engine that caused the disaster by running wild down the track into the excursion train, The engineer jumped for his own life too svon. In the light of the facts now known he might have stuck to his post, received no damage and prevented the whole ca- lamity. Of course he can not be blamed for not having within him that quality which makes heroes of men, but, having it, he would have been praised to the skies for his bravery. There is no way, of course, to make heroes. They are born. Lucky the railroad, lucky the steamboat, lucky any employer who has one in his service out of thousands of empleyes. En- gineer Jansen missed the chance of his life last Monday, the railroad is out of pocket many dollars, and scores of homes are plunged in grief. And all for the engineer’s lack of heroic nerve and fearlessness! —___ +0 —___ ‘The democratic idea in Kentucky seems to be that those who do not like the candi- dai: can vote for the platform, and vice versa. ——> ¢ e ______ It looks as if Mr. Quay would for sev- eral seasons flaunt his distinction in the face of Thomas Platt as an unbossed boss.
