THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON. “* CROSBY S. NOYES................Editor. ‘THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. (Im order to avoid delays, om ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR si ot be addressed to amy individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. Pass the Doliur-Gas Bill. In accordance with an agreement made by members of the Senate District Committee that body will at next Friday’s meeting take up for consideration and, perhaps, for action, House bill 6994 “Relating to the sale of gas in the District of Columbia.” That is the “dollar-gas” bill which was passed by the House March 9; the bill which has re- celyed the emphatic indorsement of the Washington Board of Trade; the bill which expresses the sentiment of what for all practical purposes may reasonably be re- garded as the entire community. It is not likely that the Senate Ccmmittee needs or will call for any information in addition to the abundance it now has on the gas ques- tion. Of hearings and argument there has been enough. The gas companies directiy concerned have made their pleas and have convinced every unprejudiced student of the sttuation that gas can be profitably made and furnished at the rates fixed by the House act; although the gas companies had no such intention when they appeared be- fore Congress. The advocates of reduction in price and improvement in quality showed conclusively that one dollar per thousand feet is a liberal figure when viewed from the consumers’ standpoint. Just what the Sen- ate committee will do to this important measure cannot be foretold, but it is known that the opposition—organized opposition— will do what it can to delay action. It is not likely that any effort will be made to bring about an adverse report, but every ore of the procrastinatory methods that spring so easily from senatorial courtesy will probably be given a chance. The work of polite obstruction is being aided by the representatives of local corporations who desire legislation on their own account and who sympathize with the gas companies; they urge their own claims and suggest that the dollar-gas bill be laid aside so that it may no longer interfer2 with the measures that directly concern them. Those persons whe are thus doing what they can to block the dollar-gas bill may easily overreach themselves, for it is said to be the fixed cetermination of the republican members of the committee—the oppesition to the gas bill is, oddly enough, democratic—to con- sider no other local legislation until the gas Dill has been finally and satisfactorily dis- posed of. It is sincerely hoped that a ma- icrity of the committee will continue in that frame of mind. The dollar-gas bill does not work any injustice; it should become law without further delay. —- we = A Word to Wheelmen. An accident that Hlustrates a serious danger to which the people who do not ride bicycles are constantly exposed occurred in this city recently. It has come to be a common habit with the users of the wheel to ride as close as possible to the car tracks, in order, it is explained, to get the advantage of the smoother pavement that there exists. Occasionally, as was the case the other day, a passenger on a car steps. from the platform only to be run down by a wheel, which is being driven aiong at too rapid a pace to be swerved from its course fm time. In such a city as this there is little reason for the wheelmen taking such paths, for even the roughest streets are in all places fit for use, and the bicyclist should not be permitted to choose the most dangerous spot in the whole thoroughfare for the mere sake of a sligat and in many cases an imagined increase of comfert. These accidents do not always occur as the restlt of fast riding, or “scorching,” but are caused by the persistent habit of wheelmen of fol- lowing the cars so closely that collisions are inevitable when passengers alight with- out taking the precaution to look in every direction. This is a matter that is prob- ably beyond regulation, except so far rs the wheelmen are susceptible to sug- gestion. —_+>____ De They Represent the President? Senator Vilas is one of President Cleve- land's intimates. Senator Brice is said to be of the favored few who have well- formed ideas as to what President Cleve- land is likely to do in matters of import- ance affecting the country’s financial in- terests. Interviewed as to the Cuban reselutions Senator Vilas said: “I have no hesitation in saying that neither the coun- try nor Congress has information that Weuld give warrant for recognizing the belligerency of the insurgents. That is the situation up to the present writing.” Senator Brice was even more outspoken. Said he: “In reply to the double-headed question, ‘What should the President do? and ‘What should Congress do if he does not act? i will answer ‘Nothing.’ And, furthermore, that’s precisely what will be dene—nothing.’ * Surely these senators—who have gener- ally been regarded as prominent among the administration's represeatatives in the Sen- ate—do not represent the President in this Cuban matter. It Needs Amendment. There does not now appear to be any reason why the public and the Eckington- Belt management should not join hands as to the House joint resolution introduced yesterday by Representative Miles The resolution authorizes the Eckington, Belt and Maryland and Washington Railway Companies to equip their respective lines, or any part thereof, within this city, with preumatic or other modern motive power, subject to the approval of the District Commissioners. When the resolution has been amended so as to make the improve- ment immediately compulsory and to pro- vide specifically and forcibly for the ex- clusion of the overhead trolley from the city it will probably be good enough for a law. ——_~ +s __ Bostun cannot beast of the victory of its Tepresentative in the 100 meters dash at Athens yesterday. The principal Grecian competitor was hardicapped by having to carry his name, one end of which is Chalk- okondghis. The Bostonian’s name is just Curtis. ——_~+ «> ___ Only one hundred and twenty-five men task of putting a highly-inflammable roof upon a structure supposed to be fireproof.® ———_++-_____ What Will He Do With It? The wishes of the American people with been wisely decided to lay the res- otutions before the President. Such is not the rule with concurrent resolutions—which matter, no less than the doubt hanging @ver the President's attitude, seemed to make thts course desirable, and it has been taken. We shall know now—and, let us hope, very shortly—precisely where the President stands, ’ The fear has been expressed on more than one occasion, and by more than one public man of eminence, that the Presi- dent, copying his performance in the case of the Armenian resolutions, would ignore these resolutions. There is no likeness be- twoen them, and there is this very mate- rial difference, that discretion was ex- Pressly given him in the Armenian resolu- tions to forward them or withhold them, as in his judgment seemed best. He de- cided to withhold them, and, while his course met with general. disapproyal, he undoubtedly had authority for taking it. In the present case nothing ‘is left to his discretion or judgment. The second reso- lution recites without qualification that as President he should use the friendly of- fices of the government with Spain toward securing the Independence of Cuba. A re- fusal on his part to do this would in effect be a defiance of Congress. It is needless to say that the co-operation of the President in this business is most respectfully desired. The part he is asked to play is by no means difficult, and as a friend of humanity and the Chief Execu- tive of a great free people he ought to take pleasure in performing it. Congress has no information on the subject that he does not possess. War is in progress in Cuba; the Spanish commander is famous as a man of blood wherever known; he is carrying out a policy of blood, determined on at Madrid and undertaken by him with- out stipulation. This much is known of all men. Should anything more be necessary to induce the President to exert himseif to the utmost in an effort to bring peace to Cuba?—the only proper and lasting peace that Cuba can hope to know? Meanwhile, all honor to the Fifty-fourth Congress! In every instance since assem- bling, where the question of the nation and its significance has been presented, it has risen easily and gladly to the full measure of the occasion. Venezuela, Armenia, Cuba, should be, and will be, long remem- bered to its credit. —___+ 20 e____— The unlikelikood of any disturbance of the friendly relations of Mr. Carlisle and Mr. Morris by events at Chicago is en- hanced by the fact that it should not re- quire a great deal of philosophy to enable almost any democrat to view the loss of the presidential nomination with equanim- ity. —__ 2.
