8 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. TUESDAY......,,....February 11, 1896. CROSBY S. NOYES...............Editor. THB EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. ©7Im order to avoid delays, om ac- ant of personal absestce, letters to 1B 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. es Squatter Sovereignty. There is every element of reason in the Proposition made last night at the meeting of the North-East Washington Citizens’ Association in order to demonstrate the il- legality of the use by the B. and O. of the triangular reservation at the intersection of Delaware avenue, First and H streets. Ii was suggested by one of the members that he had quite as much right to tran- Sact business on that territory as the rail- road company, and he proposed to open a coal yard on the premises and thus bring the matter quickly to a focus. The triangle im question is government property and as such is subject to improvement. Its coun- terpart is already beautified by turf, shrubs, trees and a fountain, and fs an oasis in a desert of coal-dust d freight cars. But the railroad company has squatted on the morthern triangle, erected elevated trackg and established a miniature freight yard, without leave or license and without pay- ing a penny for the valuable privilege. Somebody's business it undoubtedly Is to proceed to recover the land thus usurped from the Illegal occupant, but “somebody” is nobody whenever a great corporation is to be assailed on a street-occupying, land- grabbing case. The Baltimore and Poto- mac occupied a half dozen similar reserva- tions in South Washington and when the fight upon its illegal occupancy became warm {t forced through Congress after a severe struggle in the House a measure legalizing its occupation. It is still in un- authorized possession of the intersection of Maryland and Virginia avenues. When an outcry ia raised against such usurpation the answer comes: “Oh, why not wait? The whole grade-crossing question {s about to be taken up and adjusted, and it is hard- ly worth while to bother with such a small matter. The triangle is almost surrounded by tracks anyhow, so what's the use of making a fight for it?" Doubtless the reser- vation would never be very beautiful if rescued and improved, but that does not give the railroad the right to use It, es- pecially without cost. The value of agt- tating such a question comes from the fact that the more the illegalities, hardships and dangers of present conditions are em- phasized the nearer to a wise solution Is brought the whole grade-crossing problem. ——__ >+____ Geod Work by the Fire Laddies. Again today the local fire department demonstrated {ts value and efficiency. A conflagration started in a section of the city peculiarly favorable to the spread of the flames, and the winds were so high that for a time It was feared that the entire water front, with the enormous values there accumulated, would be swept and de- stroyed. The conditions were all- against the fire-fighters. The gale swept the flames directly toward a mass of the most inflam- mable material, and at the same time it made it impossible to direct the streams from the hose effectively into the raging fire. The peril was imminent, and the fire- men were forced to take the most daring risks. Had there been a fire tug on the river to supplement the efforts of the men on the shore the task would have been much easier, and the fire would perhaps have been confined to narrower limits. But Congress has always refused to appropriate for such @ craft, and the fire department has never been able, in consequence, to resist river front conflagrations in an adequate manner. This morning the men were fortunate in being able to get a line of hose through a building, already gutted, on the extreme edge of the river, and so managed to direct a stream with the wind against a pile of blazing wood, that threatened every mo- ment to send the conflagration down the wharves. The members of the department are entitled to the hearty thanks of the community for their brave, efficient work, but it is not fatr for Congress to take ad- vantage of the excellence of the service to parsimontously refuse to appropriate from the District revenues ‘o maintain its strength in a ratio corresponding to its in- creasing responsibilities, or for a fire boat, which is sadly needed. ——— +++ ___ Withdraw Minister Willis. If Minister Willis has cast a slur upon the national and international standing of the government to which he is accredited by refusing to recognize the Hawaiian In- dependence Day he has insulted not alone Hawaii but the people of the United States, who have sympathized with and sustained the present Hawaiian government and com- Delled the President to recognize it as a member of the family of nations. Any ac- tion by Mr. Willis in the line of Mr. Cleve- land’s former pro-monarchical Hawaiian policy which has been discredited by the people and, it was hoped, abandoned, ts in direct opposition to the sentiment and policy of the republic which Mr. Willis ts supposed to represent. If Mr. Willis in personal loyalty to Mr. Cleveland and Mrs. Dominis and in disloyalty to the American republic and the spirit of republicanism finds himself unable to be decently cour- teous to the friendly government to which he is accredited he ought to resign and come home at once. If, however, he is un- willing voluntarily to cease to cause the United States to figure in Hawail as an enemy, a bully and a spy, our government ought promptly to withdraw him. If the President will not take such action of his own accord Congress, representing the peo- ple of the United States, should urgentiy invite him so to do. When Mr. Bayard’s case has been disposed of, Congress might well consider the matter of the censure and recall of Mr. Willis. The question whether our ambassadors and ministers represent the United States abroad or a political faction or the personal dislikes of the executive in opposition to the senti- ment and declared policy of a whole peo- ple might as well be definitely settled. —____-+ +e Some of the country’s most eminent finan- clers proved to be very bad guessers as to the actual market value of bonds. —__+ +e Mr. Cleveland fs said to be very much fatigued. Several colonies of ducks are re- ported in the same condition. ——_—_ e + —____ ‘The Merit System in Diplomacy. It ls encouraging to the friends of civil service reform to note that the principles of that system are being invoked in the ap- polntments now being made on account of the death of Ambassador Runyon. The nomination of Mr. Uhl to fill that vacancy commends itself not only because of the special fitness and personal worth ot the man, but also by reason of the fact that It Is a promotion from one grade of the diplomatic service to another. It is now well understood that the place left vacant by Mr. Uhl, the office of first assistant secretary of state, ts to be filled by the advancement of Mr. Rock- hill, at present the third assistant secre- tary, who was formerly'the chief cierk of the Department. There is lkewise a proba- bility that the precedent thus set in the ease of Mr. Rockhill’s first promotion wiil _THE EVENING STAR, 7 TUESDAY, FEBRUARY i, 189¢—TWELVE Baca, be followed in filling the office by the omination ef Chief wil Ighve Renjok to be third asgistant secretery, and the policy ought to be continued in the promo- tton of some one of the worthy aiid efil- clent employes of the department to be its chief clerk. The diplomatic service of this country has often been severely oriticised, with justice, on account of the lack of ex- perience of its leading members, who aro appointed to the most important posts from civil life and require from one to three years of their four years in office to famil- farize themselves with the functions and duties of a representative of this great na- tion at other capitals. Mr. Uhl will go to Berlin well equipped to handle the many questions of more or less importance now pending between this country and Germany. Mr. Rockhill will step from one olfice to another, already familiar with the routine of departmental affairs, and Mr. Renick will take his place with a minimum of the embarrassment that usually accompanies the induction of a new incumbent into a public office. Thus the death of the am- bassador, if the new chief clerk shall be appointed by promotion, will cause the least possible interruption of the public |- business and will draw into the publiq, ser- vice only a clerk of one of the lower grades. That is the civil service principle pure and simple. The high offices upon which so much may depend are taken from the field of politics, and no longer be- come the goal of scrambling wire-pullers whose claims for appointments are as @ rule based upon every qualification but that of fitness and ability. Secretary Olney and the President are to pe congratulated upon thus establishing a good and whole- some precedent. —_—__~++—____ If the Maryland legislature yields to the ward-boss machine element of the party and repudiates utterly the reform pledges which made republican success in Mary- land possible, there will be a very reason- able prospect ehange its mind concerning the worthiness of the party at the very first election which that the state itself will gives it the opportunity to do so. Both good faith and good policy demand a serious effort to redress the evils against which Maryland's defeat of the democratic party machine was a protest. —_—__+ e+ -—_—_—_ The prospect ‘of an electric railway be- tween this city and Baltimore has not brought forth any announcement from this city’s base ball club of an intention to compete for the patronage hitherto enjoyed by the “Orioles.” —____+ + —____ Senator Smith’s remark that the most popular thing Congress could do would be to pass the necessary appropriation bills and go home will sound to some people like another breach of Senatorial courtesy.
