6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY.................Mareh 27, 1896. CROSBY S. NOYES...............-Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much re ti the com ed cir- eulation of the other Washington dailies, As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of pe: absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed te any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorin! or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpone. To Insure Garbage Collection. Warm weather will soon be here and with it, unless action is spcedily taken, will doubtless come the many and well- fended complaints as to the collection of garbage. Washington has been in ex- istence nearly one hundred years; it has come up through great tribulation until it is now, in some respects, the model Ameri- can city; it has attractiveness galore and is an extremely desirable place of resi. dence; but it never had a decent garbage- collection system. It is to be presumed that this perennial weakness is even now receiving attention; that the Health Officer is planning his summer campaign against the noiscme odors and health-threatening offensiveness of uncollected and improp- erly-removed garbage. The scheme of col- lection has always been faulty; it provided that the contractor should receive so much —senérally too much—for gathering up and taking away the refuse matter contributed by every househoid, but it did not provide # sufficient force of men whose duty it skculd be to see that the contractor did all he agreed to do. What will be needed, therefore, is an ample corps of inspectors-— bright, honest and active men—for whose employment arrangements should be made in good season. It will never do to let the garbage situation reach the proportions of a menace, as has frequently been the case in past years. Gongress is now 'n session and if there is not money enough in sight to make the inspection service first-class application should at once be made for sufficient funds. Better than even a large force of inspec- tors, with the consequent expense, would be the adoption of a garbage-reduction rs! ich by its evolution of a val- ble product would render the closest in- en unnecessary. If there was profit juum—as there is in reduction— the contractor would see to it that every pound of garbase was promptly and prop- erty collected. The Star believes that gar- Tage reduction is preferable to garbage incineration, but the municipal authorities have ¢ incineration, so a strong corps of faithful inspectors is demanded. —_—__~se2o_ A Bill That Should Become Law. There are several bills before Congress which the people of the District of Colum- bia would like to see placed upon the stat- ut> Yooks: One of these mezsures is the bill to amend the charter of the Eckington and Sold Hom: Railway Company. The bill was rot introduced by request of poration, bui it is, nevertheless, a torious measure which unquestionably tion and early Framed and urged by the Nerth Capitol and Eckingion zens’ Association, the bill requires the Eck- ington Company to substitute a modern motive power for the horses which are n used by the company on its lines in this city. Th2 proposition is, in view of Con- gressional dealings with other street rail- way corporatiors, entirely reasonable, for it gives the company fifteen months in which to change the a t and not over- fed horse for forees that more nearly harmonize with the generally-advanced conditions of the modern capits In support of the bill in question many petitions have been sent to the House and Senate and cther efferts have been and are being made to brirg into existence a legis- ict which has long been needed. ty for betterment of transporta- ities has been conceded by the tself, through its president, but and aemaite action. company up to this time there has been no other than verbal testimony as to any modern- izing endeaver by the company. It may be nt Newbold is really engaged to di ct a motor— he has been quoted as believing in a com- pressed-air engine—but his experiments and studies will not In any way be interfered with by this bill. So far as appearances give forth any indication the North Capitol and Eckington Citizens’ Association and the ington and Soldiers’ Home Railway Company are in accord. The sincerity of the Citizens’ Association is proven by its advocacy of this bill, What will the com- pany show as proof of its seriousness in the cause of referm? ——___+ e«_-___ A Suggestion as» to Economy. Representative Cannon, if he really wants to be economical, should not object to the letail of naval officers for duty at the Naval Observatory. Mr. Cannon has as- serted that the naval officers so detailed know no mere about astronomy than the average member of Congress. If that be ‘so, then it would be much better to have them ashore than afioat, for if they are ig- horant of astronomy, they only need half an opportunity to sink every ship in the ravy. Even a meniber cf Congress, wholly without astronomical knowledge, might steer a prairie schooner, but the sailor who is equally uninformed as to stellar matters would be helpless as a navigator, for navi- gation is seven-tenths astronomy. ——~e.___ ‘Today there is nothing mysterious in the ert of phonosraphy, but time was, and not so long ago, when the few who juggled with the strange signs were classed with the mystics. Most prominent of the early few in this country was Dennis ¥. Murphy, who died yesterday. Pri sionally z2:so- ciated for nearly half a century with men and matters of great moment in our na- tional career, he tock away with him a vast quantity of unwritten history and left bebind tke voluminous record of a busy life. ————+ ++ __ The theory that Mr. Cleveland is weary of public life is a plausible one. The ob- scurity which permits a man to go fishing or hunting without attracting national at- tention has its allurements. ———+2 2s ___ Mr. Bayard forces every aspiring diplo- mat to the conclusion that any one subject to swelling thoughts should lose no time in doing something for them. ——_++-2____ One of Weyler’s Bi lers. Encouraged, probably, by the misleading Gispatch recently sent out by Minister De Lome, Gen. Weyler has notified the Cuban irsurgents that they will hereafter be dealt with as incendiaries and bandits. The an- reuncement is in no sense surprising, for that was the line of conduct Spain expected Weyler to follow; he was appointed cap- tain-gereral for that very purpose and is to some extent in disfavor with the Spanish governmeat because his slaughtering and outragit g business has recently been of the retall rather than the wholesale sort. For this, to Spain, unsatisfactory state of af- fairs Weyler is really not responsible. He has dons about as much as seemed Possi- Ele; more he could not do simply because the Cubans have been sufficiently alert to deprive him of opportunities for massacre. It is evident from the latest of the Weyler proclamations that this ability to avoid and to weery the Spanish troops is, in the eyes of Weyler, a serious offense; he can- not forgive the Cuban activity which en- bles the revolutiorary forceé to decline battle when the chances are decidedly. against them, so he declares his purpose to abrogate the rules of modern warfare in order that he may wreak some measure of revenge upon those Cubans who are un- fortunate enough to fall into his clutches. it must be evident to all unprejudiced and capable students of the Cuban situation that Weyler is a conspicuous failure as a suppresscr of revolution. He went to the island with a reputation for wickedness which is probally without. a latterday Parallel and which must, of itself, have had @ depressing effect upon the movement to free Cuba; Spain gave him military and naval forces and supplies to the extent of his requisitions; the executive branch of the United States government exerted it- self—straining the law to its utmost ten- sion—io aid Weyler in destroying the pa- triot cause; yet the combination has been ineffectual and the revolution continues with steady accession of speeed and mo- mentum. It is understood that Spain will soon send another army corps to Cuba— twenty-six thousand men, infantry, cavalry and artillery—but it is not believed that even so great an addition to the Spanish army under Weyler can seriously delay the emancipation which must come. Until the ‘| Cubans are satisfactorily armed and equip- ped they will hardly permit themselves to be drawn into a general engagement, for such conduot would be inexcusably foolish, and as therough armament and equipment cannot reasonably be expected for some months, unless the United States recegnizes Cuban belligerency in the near future, these reinforcements that Spain is about to send will not affect the situation. The rainy season is at hand, and when it commences the Spanish solders will have more than enough to do fighting the deadly fevers that assail the unacclimated. The Cuban plan of campaign doubtless provide: for especial activity during the forthcom- ing annual period of imported helplessness with which Gen. Campos had such painful experiences last year, and if the Cub: lay little or no sympathy for the abled Spaniards it will not be for Gen. Weyler to complain, for he has declared thcse who are struggling for liberty to be incendiaries and bandits. American sympathizers with Cuba—and there must be about seventy millions of them—sincerely hope that Cuba will not make brutal reprisal for Weyler’s inhu- manities. They also hope that the United States government will not longer delay full recognition of Cuban belligerency. ——_—++ ++ _____ If the Cuban generals can only keep their troops in seclusion for 2 while the destruc- tion of the Spanish army may safely be left to Spanish officers. Combats between subdivisions of the Spanish forces are among the most sanguinary in the cam- paign. ——___ » + —____ The Spanish patriots who are yielding to a -popular sentiment and declaring war on their own account rely, of course, on country’s being suiticiently quick of per- ‘fhe arms and ammunition which have Leen recently Janded in Cuba for the use of the insurgents will probably compensate the Cuban government for the loss of its of which the Spanish announc to the world that they now have possession. a ‘The juvenile King of Spain no doubt real- izes that it is a hardship to put too much restraint on Cuba when it has reached that point in its age when it would like to get out of the nursery and play with the other young southern Republics. ~ ——_—_+ e+ —___ It might be an act of wisdom for the Spanish government to balance up its books and see whether Cuba is not likely to cost more than it is worth as a depend- ent province. + oe It is very doubtful whether a bicycle could add to its popularity among people who do not ride by being equipped with a bell in such a manrer as to keep up an in- cesssant jingle. —~+2—___ The people who object to providing mari- time defenses because they represent a great deal of expense might object to ses- sions of Congress on the same ground. —aess There is a general feeling that congres- sional repartee {s not what it was before Mr. Reed was laden with the responsibil- ties of the speakership. —_~++ Only one hundred and ten men worked today on the city post-office building.
