It is announced that the District Com- m'ss‘orers have determined to press again to the front, at the coming session of Con- gress, the need of the District for a new municipal building. It is rather a mis- nomer to call it a “new” building when all the community possesses is a leasehold vpon a structure built by private parties. The proposition needs.no argument in its favor. Every taxpayer here knows well enough the necessity for action by Con- gress, and that each year’s delay makes a satisfactory meeting of the demands of the District more and more difticult, as land values increase. It is with retuetance that the citizens Join the cry for a building to be located on Judiciary Square, as a compromise that will be most likely to meet the approval of the parsimonious legislators in Congress. The right place for a municipal office is on the city’s great thoroughfare, where it will be not only a conventence to a majortiy of the citizens, but a permanent ornament to the capital. An avenue site that does not absorb any part of the reserved ground that is so val- uable for other than building purposes should be secured, if possible. The city post-office was thus located, and the gov- ernment Is yet solvent. The District is as willing to bear one-half the cost of a more expensive site as it ls to give up a part of a beautiful park, and probably more so, yet if it should develop that Congress will posi- tively not consent to a purchase, then every energy should be bent to secure an appropriation for a magnificent modern tuilding on the site of tbe present court- house, to accommodate the municipal offices and the local and federal courts, making a@ splendid architectural addition to the city and a combination convenient for the business and professional men of Wash- ington. ——___+ += The New Southern Connection. No better sign of the increasing com- mercial importance of Washington could be had than the latest move of the Balti- more and Ohio Railroad Company in tak- ing, by permission of the District Com- missioners, the first steps to secure a through southern connection by way of the capital. The city has long lacked that competition among the railroads tapping the south that has really been demanded by the steady development of that region, and it is unfortunate that this active cor- poration has not long ago succeeded in se- curing a route that would place it on an independent basis as far as southern con- nections are concerned. Freight rates are still higa enough to warrant considerable cutting, which it is reasonably certain will not be done as long as the present railroad service to the south has practically no com- petition. With the Baltimore and Ohio en- gaged in active competitive service the city will necessarily reap a benefit that is not to be derived from any other source. Great care should be taken, however, that in the development of the Georgetown termi- nus and its future facilities for southern connection, the same evils of grade cross- ings and similar menaces to life, limb and property that obtain in the case of the present Baltimore and Ohio and Pennsyl- vania tracks are not permitted to spread. If the lawmakers shall place a firm re- striction upon the use of the streets at the very outset of the scheme, the danger will not be so great. But railroads are like most men. The more they get the more they want. There is no limit to their ca- pacity for receiving and taking, while there is a distinct limit to their disposition to ald the public in return for favors granted. —_—__~+e+_ The Importance of Morbidity Reports. Health Officer Woodward states that Tater reports show the typhoid fever to be by no means as prevalent as the first in- dications and estimates served to show. ‘The early calculation of six hundred cases was based on a ratio of deaths, and not on actual reports made by physicians. - It seems from Dr. Woodward's latest state- ment that it is difficult to obtain full re- turns from the physicians, and he is now forced, even in such an emergency as at present exists, to make an estimate, based this time, it Is true, on a certain number of actual returns. There surely should be @ law to prevent such a situation, which might easily become a menace if the typhoid fever were actually as nearly epi- demic as it 1s falsely reported to be. There is no good reason why every practicing physician in the District should not be obliged to make a weekly report to the health officer, stating every case of sick- ness under his care, of whatever character. There is no other way to keep track of the city’s health, and If there is ever a need for close communication between the officials and the physicians it is at such @ time as this, when a dangerous disease is more than usually prevalent. The re- ports of the physicians need not be open to general inspection, and only the sum- maries should ever be given out for publi- cation. It is far more important that the city’s sick should be kept under survell- lance than that the city’s dead should be recorded. Here {s a fine field for a whole- some reform. ——__+ +2 ____ The National Association of Funeral Di- rectors are to hold their convention in Bos- ton next year. This is a direct snub for Brooklyn. With her trolley achievements she has not deserved to be thus ignored. ee oe Croker will have to find a political Willie Simms to stand a fair chance of winning out in the Manhattan handicap. —— ‘The Hawaitan revolution has developed a large number of persistent ghosts of it- self. ——___+ e+ --____ Only twenty men were at work on the city post-office building today. > o- Gotham’s Balance of Power. Much depends upon the size and temper of the meeting of German-Americars to be held tonight in New York to protest against the recent action of a certain portion of the members of that organization in endorsing the Tammany ticket. The parties and fac- tions have now so lined themselves up on the excise question and on personal ques- tions, reflected In the tickets, that the victory appears to be largely a matter of mathematics. Tammany's minimum strength was shown tn last year’s cam- paign. There Is no reason for a reaction that will carry the vote cast for the Tam- many ticket very much beyond this point. To be sure, there fs not the same degree of interest in the issues such as last year brought out a tremendous vote for the fusion ticket, but the excise question has assumed such proportions that a large | vote is expected. Thousands of voters whose material interests have been in- volved in the tight-Sunday administration | @re expected to cast ballots for one or THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 16, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. another ticket- supposed to represent certain shades of opinion on this important ques- tion, But one fact that’ will” militate strongly againat Tommany is the probabil- ity that the legislature, in all Hkelfhood, will be controlled by the republicans, who will thus, whatever the result_in the city, be enabled to dictate the excise laws for both town and country. Hence Tammany is weak with the pro-liquor interests. as well as those that favor temperance legis- lation and Sunday observance, The action of the Brewers’ Association in withdrawing its support from the Hall is specially sig- nificant in this connection. Now, if the result is to bé close, the German-American vote has a vital importance. If it be true, 2s stated, that out of 80,000 votes cast by these citizens, 30,000 will be given to the fusion ticket, the tide of battle appears now to Le turning against the Tiger. But if the anti-Tammany element in the reform union should prove unable to draw as many votes as this away from the faction that endorsed the Tammany ticket, the fight will prebably be very close, unless new developments in the situation should occur. This possibility is ever present, as the case seldom presents the same phase from day to day. ——_+ + ____. Tonsorial Tribulations. Th barbers’ union throughout the country should join the forces that have been ar- rayed so earnestly against the football babit Their motive for such an action might be deemed a trifle mercinary, to be sure, but every little helps, especially in a Propaganda that is assalling so strongly en- trenched an evil as a social fad. It is im- Dosstble to estimate the loss of rev-nue sustained by the worthy ones who handle the razor and shears, at such a season when the chief ambition of every youth who it not a member of a football team is to be mistaken as one. In order to grow a becoming and complete equipment for the Thanksgiving games—that day being now established as the Fourth of July of foot- ball—it ts necegsary to begin now to eschew the barber and, therefore, this time marks the beginning of that financial suhara through which the hair-cutters of the coun- try are annually passing. If it should be the fad to grow untrimmed beards as well as unkempt shocks of hair, doubtless there would be general exodus from this now pleasant occupation to other pursuits less subject to foolish fluctuations. eg Gladstone writes to a temperance organi- zation that he has not yet mastered the difficulties of the Hquor question, although he has studied it all his life. That able Kentucky statesman, Henry Watterson, should find time during his European trip to give Mr. Gladstone a few valuable prac- tieal suggestions, ee - England appears to have done more in construing tke Monroe doctrine than the State Department. One of the secrets of that country’s enormous power is that it does not hesitate to confront a question and follow it out in all its logical aspects. ———— + -+2-___ Unless Lord Sackville is anxious to interfere with President Cleveland's third term chances by reflecting on his methods as a former campaigner, there is little rea- son why he should have forsaken a tran- quil obscurity just at this time. + ¢ «_____ The vacancy on the Supreme Bench makes it possible that the gentleman who got bis name into the Washington city di- rectory amid a good deal of jeering’ some time since may yet be vindicated. ee The complalat that blieycles frighten horses is slowly but surely giving way to a protest against horses and carriages get- ting in the way of bicycles. —___+e=—_ Congress will surely find it expedient to put up a new government printing office before it bends its intellectual energies to the whipping post question. —___++=—____ In a clty whose ¢ 1 sanitary condi- tions are as favorable as those of Wash- ington an epidemic scare should be out of the question. 5 —_~++__—_ Corea is becoming almost as erratic and turbulent as a South American republic or a populist orator. —— SHOOTING STARS.
