(HH EVSNING STAR has a regular and pesmunent Family ireulation much more than the combined cir- eulation of the other Washington dailies, Au a News and Advertising , Medium it has no competitor. jl In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, 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 Public Library Project. This season's campaign for a free public library in Washington has opened In a vigor- ous and promising fashion. The report of the board of trade committee, published elsewhere in The Star, urges a consolidation of effort to secure legislation creating a municipally-sustained library, which is shown to be the only-real public library in the modern sense of the term. First sub- scriptions of money to purchase books and conditioned upon the desired lation by Congress, are to be obtained, and then a movement upon our legislature is proposed to cause it to create a tax-su tained lib: , and thus to make the private subscriptions for books effective. Seven thousand dollars, in a memorial fund and in two dire »scriptions, have already been promise’, though no opportunity for sub- ral citizens of await only this to contribute. Washington may yele citizen to serve as its Carne- but by combining its men of Carnegie’s fon though of less than his wealth it an doubt a small dd Carne- gle, and provide story sum from private subscription to equip a municipal library. In vi epportunit hav no of Washington's culating IMbrary ening as well view of the lack of a free cir- with rooms open in the s during the day, and in demand for such an institution by a quarter million of people, and espec!ally by thirty-three thousand school children over twelve years of age, by twenty thou- rand ¢ nment employes, and by twenty- nd local workingmen and their should be an easy matter to e- red enactment from any tegisla- ture which seeks in earnest to promote the welfare of a community, for which it is the ive lawmaker. It is much to be de- hat the incoming Congress may prove to be such a legislature. With « long pull, a strong pull and a pull all together, it will undoubtedly be possible to realize the library committee's hope “that with unity of Iccal effort, and with an ac- cumulstion of local money, books and ener- gy, and with the municipality, national goy- ernment and private citizens doing their full duty and pulling shoulder to shoulder in the same direction, a public Hbrary will be created of whieh Washington may be proud, nad wht h will confer ine upon th hool childre the department ments of th needing stimable benefits . the workingimen, clerks, and all other ele- capital's book-loving and book- population. ——___~ ee No Bids Received. It was not surprising that the farmers occupying the open stands on B street at the south side of the Center Market build- ing should refuse to bid for places in the unimproved haymarket square to which Commissioners propose to remove n. It would have been foolish on the part of the farmers in the present unset- tled state of the question to make proffers for sp: to which they might be held by the Commissioners later on, untess the pub- ntiment against the Commissioners’ movement should prove strong enough to a reconsideration of their action. unpepularity of the Commis : matter has been thc demonstrated by this time. The farm themselves have perhaps been encour the many expressions of sympath: m and of indignation at the proposal of the Commissioners not only to deprive the farmers of the long-held privilege, but to deprive the marketing public of a great convenience and advantage.. In any direct contest between the Commissioners and the market company public sympathy {s apt to be with the Commissioners as the repre- Ssntatives of the people and against the corporation; but In the shape which the present controversy has taken the Commis- 'S are striking a blow not at the mar- Ket company but at the outside dealers and the marketing public, and the people of the city whom they are supposed to represent do not sustain them In their proposed harsh and oppressive action. When the hay- market, controlled by the public, ceases to be a mud hole and has been put in shape to be used as a market, and has been made attractive to vendors, then, if ever, will be the Ume to drive Into it from B street un- willing tenants, to break up the established business of numerous small dealers, and to inconvenlence marketing housekeepers, Then the public as a market-owner, anx- Jous for business, may justify Its course; now it cannot. ——— 6 An Unjust Charge. ‘The Baltimore American takes occasion in criticising Secretary Morton's annual report to charge the Weather Bureau with being “so utterly inefif¥ient and unreliable that the people would have been more benefited had the entire apprepriation been covered into the Treasury.” This fs not the fact. The Weather Bureau Is neither inefficient nor unrellable. Nor did the change in its immediate management, as The American declares, result in a diminution of its value to the people. The same corps of forecasters remained on duty, with few exceptions, and practically the same system of making fore- casts is followed under Prof. Moore as under Prof. Harrington. The annual value of this _ bureau to the people is very great, and the ,ratlo of accuracy in its forecasts, while ‘they may fafl in some cases, is steadily , rowing higher as the meteorological condi- tions of the country become better known. Secretary Morton deserves credit for the jhearty support that he has given to this ‘branch of the public work, and it has flour- ished and tmproved under his administra- tion as never before in its history. ————_+ + + ___ The rumor that the Sultan has been Ppotsoned leads to a hideous suspicion that in his agitation he has smoked some Turk- ish cigarettes. —_—_- e+ ____ There will soon be an opening for an In- Yeresting chapter on “great men who do rot Fide bicycles.” —_—_—_ e» _____ A Comic Opera in Constantinople. Divorced for the moment from its terrify- ing aspects, the predicament of the Sultan of Turkey reminds one of a comic opera of the farcical type. This absurd monarch, surrounded by a ballet and clad In extrava- gant robes, should now prance down to the nternational footlights and warble a topic song about the “great I-am-n: end his realm, He should draw his scimetar end make a@ great bluff at decapitating his gainistry, headed by a grand vizier, who has phaking knees, a knowing wink behind the wultan’s back and a high hat surmounted by peacock feathers, Then the orchestra should play a martlal measure and the sul- tan should order that an army of half a “million men be mobilized day after tomor- row. Nomen? Then hire them! No funds? hen get money! Off with somebody's head! The sultan should then have a fine fit of fantastic fury and kill nineteen or twenty slaves at one swish of his scimetar and order the army to parade forthwith, before march- ing off into Armenia to subdue the rebels, by doing circuits around the scenes. Then, while the reports come in that the army of half a million has been assembled, but that by some error of calculation it has dwindled to about half a thousand—the grand vizier had probably swallowed two of the ciphers in his agitation—the sultan bows compla- cently to the crowned heads of Europe oc- cupying the private boxes and sings a song of sixpence, while the stage manager, who talks Slavonic and drinks tea out of a sam- ovar after the performance, does a Cossack clog and rings down the curtain. Will there be an encore? ae ae “Automatic” Safety Appliances. Officials of the street railway company, whose car loaded with people dashed through an open draw in Cleveland the other night, are explaining that the acci- dent was caused by a failure of the auto- matic cut-off’ which is supposed to shut the current from the wires for a long distance from the draw whenever it is opened for the passage of a vessel. This, if true, Il- lustrates still further the contention of The Star of yesterday that there 1s too little at- tention paid to the safeguards upon which humaa life depends. There is evidence to show that this appliance, which was the | sole protection against calamity, was out of order, that it had failed to work at the very time when it should have operated, on a dark night with a heavily loaded car going at a brisk speed. It had probably not been Inspected for a long time, and it wa presumably taken for granted that, being “automatic,” it could always be trusted. The lesson taught by this dis- covery is that each piece of machinery that is intended to protect human life should be guarded by the most c¢: ant vigilance, and that the fact that it is automatic in its operation should not prevent it from being subjected to unremitting surveillance. —<-0--— A Monument to Eugene Field. A movement has been inaugurated in Chi- cago with the object in view of erecting monument to the memory of Eugene Field, who has been justly termed “the poet laureate of the American children,” It is proposed that the fund for this purpose shall be raised by contributions from the litle ones, and already the list of givers is long and the total of their mites begins to assume adult proportions. The enterprise is being managed by a committee of the editors of Chicago's great newspapers, all men of national repute, with the venerable Joseph Medill at the head. The list of givers is open to the children of the whole land, without regard to states or towns, for the rhymes of Eugene Field have reached little hearts in every nook and corner of the country and his “Little Boy Blue” is today @ pet of the nation. The Star will gladly forward to the treasurer of the monument committee any contributions that the chil- dren of Washington may desire to make to swell the fund. No sum is too small for such a purpose, and those now announced range from five cents to a dollar. ee The effort to load the responsibility for the condition of the Texas from one ad- ministration to another is depressing.
