Editor, THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailics, As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. G7 Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal abscnee, 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 End of the War. With the removal of the trolley poles and wires from New York avenue comes the apparent end of long-continued strife between public sentiment and a big com- bination devoted to the overhead trolley. To the readers of The Star there is noth- ing new to be unfolded in the history of one of th2 most persistent series of as- saults ever made by a cerporation upon the public rights; every stage of the con- flict has been clearly portrayed and every TMmovement of the enemy accurately chron- icled. Without indulging In language that might to soMe appear extravagant, it would be difficult for The Star to give cx- pressicn to the gratificaticn it feels at this seeming termination of a struggle that for a long time appeared to be almost hope- less. Sincerely committed, long ago, to a crusade against overhead wires of all de- scripticns, The Star was first and fore- most in assailing the tricksters who by cunning forestalling of the law succeeded in materially damaging the appearance of New York avenue by setting up in the middle of that previously unincumbered thoroughfare a row of obstructive poles which supported unsightly and dangerous wires. Encouraged by the success of the Eckington company, other advocates of the overhead-trolley system of street-car pro- yyuision besieged Congress for privileges jimilar to these which the Eckington se- tured by sharp practice, and how closely some of those petitioners came to succeed- ing the general public may never know. Backed by several of the strongest politi- cians in the country, the trolley schemers attacked Congress in force and throughout @ long-drawn campaign lost no opportun- tty to advance their cause. Defeated, they were not discouraged, but returned again and again, seemingly assured that in some way or other their desires would be grati- fied and their purely selfish efforts crowncd with legislative and financial success. It was guerilla warfare throughout, with one or two exceptions, for the trolley people realized that in open fight they could not possibly win; therefore they adopted the tactics of the bushwhacker and were prob- ably much surprised when it was made evi- dent that even those members of Congress whom they had deemed their friends were unwilling to afford them needed aid or comfort. Suddenly the trolley attorneys found themselves placed upon the defens- ive, for a suggestion by The Star was taken up in the Senate and the result was statu- tory provision which limited the legal ex- istence of the poles and wires on New York avenue. The limit was broader than The Star expected it would have been, but a3 efforts to amend promised to result in tem- porary disaster The Star accepted the three-year regulation. Later, Congress granted the company another year of €race, although strenuous effort was made to prevent any such prolongation of the improper occupancy of New York avenue. ‘foday tke trolley does not operate on New York avenue, and it is likely that before the close of the week there will be no evi- dence of a material sort to indicate that there ever was a trolley there. This con- dition is the effect of a cause for whic The Star m:y fairly and not immodestly claim the credit; the claim has already been admitted by those who have ac- quainted themselves with the history of the trolley’s endeavor to capture Washing- ton. But this downfall of the poles and wires on New York avenue means more than the mere surrender of a single street-railroad company; it means that the powerful syndicate which owns the Eckington and Belt roads (and which Was strong envugh to work its will in all the other cities upon which it has laid its hands) is not likely again to attempt to install the overhead trolley within this city’s limits. The downfall is not that of only a few poles and wires; it is the over- throw of a great conspiracy against the public welfare; it is the crushing of hopes that once had many good and sufficient reasons for active existence. The removal of the obstructions from New York ayenue should not, however, result in any relaxa- tion of watchfulress on the part of the public, for the trolley agent is still abroad in the land and he makes appearance just when he is least expected. Until the Eck- ington and Belt roads are equipped with underground: or storage battery or other wholly unobjectionable varieties of motive power it will pay the community to be vigilant. —___ «+ —___ Antitoxine may not yet be popular with the great mass of the medical fraternity, but the staff at the Boston City Hospital swears by it neverthel One hundred and thirteen cases of diphtheria have been treated with the new remedy and of these ninety recovered. Of ‘the twenty-three deaths, fifteen were certain when the pa- tients were brought to the hospital, so that a statistician declares that less than eight per cent of those who were seasonably treated with the fluid failed to respond favorably. Prior to the coming of anti- toxine the mortality in that pariicular hos- pital has been closely in the neighborhood of fifty per cent. It will take a great deal of argument to overthrow the effect of these figures, at least upon the siaft of the Boston Hospital. ——_~ e = —____ The Prince of Wales is against the tip system among servants. If Senator Sher- man and the prince decide to join forces ‘we may be able to do something with these Pullman p¢rters, after all. + -____ One hundred men were employed upon the city post-office building today. —___+ ee ____ The Public School and the Parent. One week from today the public schools ef this city will be reopened and another educational year will begin. It ought to be & more successful year than any one that has gone into history, for the equipment is in every respect supericr to that which has been, although still less effective than {t ought to be; a shortcoming for which Congress alone is responsible. The out- look 1s altogether promising. The care- fully-traired corps of teachers is the bet- ter able to instruct because of the well- earned and not-ioo-brief vacation; the forty-five thousand children have enjoyed the rest so necessary to immature minds and half-grown bodies. Washiagton’s pub- lio schools have been voted by exverts to be in very many respects the best in the Jand; their all-round superiority must be evident to anyone who will investigate ; @nd compare. Here and there, perhaps, are weaknesses of more or less importance, | @nd in the opinion of some persons who ere devoted supporters of the public school there may be too much of tendency toward elaboration of the high-school idea, put, viewed from the standpoint of the average observer, the public-school system Of the national capital has fewer defects than are to be found In the systems oper- ated in other large cities. But all of the credit achieved by the pupils in this city should not be ascribed to the excellent teachers and the personal application of the puptis; there is probably a larger per- centage of the deeply-intcrested parent in Washington than can be fonnd in any other community, and it is to the hom influences that much of the praise shoul be given. Fathers and mothers who have hitherto cared but little and who have left the sducation of their children entirely to those whose business it is to teach should be awakened to a reailzing sense of the disadvantages under which their offspring labor. When the home2-neglected little ores have to study coincidentally with cther Ittle ones whos> parents or guard- jans supplement the efforts of the profes- sional instructor by expressions of con- cern as to the daily progress of the pupil or pupils they will find it difficult to keep up with the scholasie procession. If teachers and parents would only work in sympathetic harmony with each other then Washington would more nearly pos-. sess the ideal public-school system. —____+ e-=____ Bulldozing by Hungarian Miners. Governor Hastings would do well to carefully investigate the stories emanating from the anthracite coal fields of Pennsyl- vania, in which are allegations to the effe that the foreigners, who are conspicuously strong in the laboring element of that re- gion, are organizing for the purpose of driving out of the field of competition the comparatively few American miners who have survived repeated reductions of wages and other formidable disabilities that have prominently materialized during the past three or four years. It is stated upon what seems to be reliable authority that these successors to the Molly Maguires have been eperating for some time past, and are now steadily engaged in either frightening away those who can be frightened or in murder- ously assaulting those who refuse to be bulldozed. So great is the preponderance of Hungarians in the anthratite region that in the ordinary course of events the efforts of the oath-bound and conspiring majority must result in a reign of terror such as ought not to be permitted to exist anywhere within the boundaries of a country that pretends to be free. Governor Hastings has had great and intimate personal ex- perience with the coal miners; he knows precisely the character of the men with whem he has to deal. He owes it to his administration and to the magnificent com- monwenith of which he is now the govern- mental head to take such emphatic action as will speedily break up the offensive or- ganizations and scatter abroad the crimi- nals who are plotting against the peace and welfare of all the parties concerned. A little severity just now may prevent much trouble in the near future. —_———_+ + -+____ With the electric car and the horseless wagon in vogue, it may be necessary to revise the primers which include that hitherto unimpeachable assertion, “The horse is a useful animal.” — e=____ Whether or not Mr. Watterson has a very exciting time in Europe, he will probably miss a good deal of political turbulence and distress ia this country. —~+++____.

SHOOTING STARS. The Latest Rivolry. “I don’t care if she did try to cut me,” said one girl. “Has she any reason for it?” asked the other. “Yes. She’s jealous. She thinks I have succeeded in getting bloomers that are hhemelier than hers.” Autumn. The poet's season passes now. No more of rustling maples He sings. His mind is bent on ham And other grocery staples. The puriing brooks and mossy banks He leaves—tie fate is cruel— For discourse dull among the shops On winter clothes and fuel. Sometimes So. “Is it really true,” said the little boy, “that politicians are sometimes not strictly honest “Yes,” replied Senator Sorghum, sadly; “I am sorry to say that it is. I have known poiitictans who got votes years ago and have not paid for them yet.” How It Works. ‘Willie has a fountain-pen; By fits and starts it goes; And every time he writes with it He spoils a suit of clothes. His Worry. “Did you sleep well last night, Mr. Py- kins?” said that gentleman's landlady. “No. I sat up all night?” “Are you worried about anything?” she went on, with a solicitude that was really motherly. “Yes—to till the truth, I don't mind, I'll confide in yo “What is it?” “You see that blanket you gave me is a little short—” “Y-yes.” “And I sat up in my chair nearly all the night trying to make up my mind whether I would rather have chilblains or pneu- monia.”” The Reed Bird.

The manufacturers of Ceres Flour are not resting on the laurels of the past. The fact that all the prize winners in the recent bread making contest held at Convention Hall used Ceres Flour in making their prize loaves—the fact that Ceres has for many years held the first place in the hearts of the public over all other brands of flour in this section—the fact that all the best bread makers in Washing- ton use it—are not sufficient compliments to Ceres’ superior quality to cause its manufac- turers to let up one iota in their efforts to make it a perfect flour.
