Subscribers changing their address from one Post-office to another should give the last address as well as the new one. —— = Some Unreasonabie Complaints. Reasonable control of street traffic is a power that should ever be in the hands of the municipal authorities. This control needs to be continually exercised as to all of the many varieties of vehicles common on the city’s thoroughfares. Riders and drivers who violate the ordinances as to or the right of way ought to be re- 1 In such a fashion as to render un- likely any repetition of the offense. The Star stands on that piatform. But some of the complaints made—especially as to bicyclists—are unreasonable. It is not to be expected that the re‘gn of King Bicycle will be acceptable to all humankind. It would be amazing if the non-riders were to accept without protest the new and in- evitable conditions. Discontent of some sort is always active and in evidence, and there is none among the thoughtful who will declaim against rational exercise of the privilege of “kicking, because the frequently right. In this case, as not been demonstrated that any unsuppressible evil threatens.

If the ity post-office ouilding should be attacked by fire because of the inflam- mable nature of its roof there will be no trouble whatever in locating the responsi- bility for the destruction of property and the loss of human life which may reagon- ably be expected to accompany such a con- fiagration. Primarily and miost heavily the burden would be upon the shoulders of Supervising Architect Aiken, who insisted— without -ringing forward a single sound argument in support of his position—that @ combustible wooden roof is fireproof. A portion of the load would have to be borne by Secretary Carlisle, who permitted hi: name to Le attached to one of the m extravagant and delusive statements ever palmed upon any victim of a bunco ©; an allegation that it would cost the vernment more than three hundred thou- many of th desi These ra t lich the Supervising Architect de- alike satisfactoryfand unsat; Then the House Committee on ildings and Grounds will have hare of the weight, for it has 1 to being imposed upon. Should there ever be a fiery disaster at the post-office the blood shed will be upon sily-identified heads. + «+ A Victory for the Farmers. If Co too deeply immersed in national business of supreme import- ance, it x afford a few minutes of its time to ttlement of a much-vexed question in which many of the people of Washington are interested—the dispute be- tween the Distr ers and the farmers and gardeners as to the occupancy by the latter es of the north side of B street between 7th and 9th streets. The Star has all elong contended that the tights of the farmers and gardeners to the place which custom had given them ought not to be disturbed, so it is gratifying to note that Senator Gallinger, from the Sen- the s ate L Committee, has reported fa- vorably the resolution which, among other things, provides that the law of 1871, which exempts from 1 nse all farmers and produce-raising truckmen who do bus- iness with the public on the north side of B street, immediately south of the Center Marke shall remain in full force. Some * may be a properly-constructed uiliing, in which the farmers and 2 May be assembled, but that day meanwhile the south side of the enter Market will do. —-— 2. With Senator Teller lifting up his voice from the ranks of the republicans and Mr. Boies shouting from the democratic house- it becomes difficult to clothe the silver mecvement with a political identity. ———_ + ++ The disposition of Senator Tillman to gecept the pitchfork and contemplate it as 4 mark of distinction is a reminder of the pride which the school-boy seems to take in a boil cr a stubbed toe. ———_ +e The War Spirit in Great Britain. From both sides of the Atlantic—from many of the best people in Great Britain and in the United States—there have lately gone up petitions for the establishment of an international court of arbitration. Of the earnestness of the eminent men and women engaged in the difficult task of fiscouraging war there cannot possibly be any question, and were the majority of the two nations most immediately con- cerned in accord with the pacific doctrines advanced by the philanthropic, it would not be long before the international court would be a pleasing reality. But, as a matter of fact, the great masses of the British empire and the American republic 2re not inclined towerd peace at any price. Of the feeling on this continent there is ample evidence that there is no disposition to avoid a conflict between this and any other country which may happen to pick a quarrel with us. In England the war spirit is no less pronoune The Broad Arrow, which unquestionably represents English military sentiment, gives utterance to British popular opinion most kingly and in these words: y Englishman now knows, and can nm forget, that the United States lominate in America, and are s because we are the chief bar aination. And yet her position Ziculously absurd one. She claims, hostil | pire, she is blundering hugely. in effect, that all our interests in must give way to what she thinks hers, in order, chiefly, that she may be. exempted from those charges for armaments which weigh So heavily on the powers of Europe. She does not perceive that neither nations nor men ever surrender their vitai interests to others unless compelled by force. To live as she now does, free from any great cost for armaments, she must behave as she has hitherto done, and keep herself to herself. She is a numerous and fairly wealthy nation, but she is a great nation— in the sense of power in the world—omy by sufferance. There is a general European understanding with her that the states on this side of the Atlantic will not attack her interests in America, but it is mutually agreed that she shall not attack European interests anywhere. The argument then is that if the United States attempts to insist upon the contin- ued existence of what we understand to be the Monroe doctrine, there must be suffi- cient expenditure for coast defenses, for army reorganization, and for increase of our naval power; without these—unless we voluntarily become ins‘gniticant as a force and nationally pusillanimous—we must some day suffer humiliation at the hands of Great Britain. The Broad Arrow apparently has ro doubt as to what will happen between the two countries, for it says: “We must understand that if the United States remain united there will ultimately be war between the British empire and that nation. The world learns nothing; and the latest creation in the form of a great power drifts—ir spite of all the better knowledge of its wiser citizens—into the position of the oldest. For this empire, it must hence forth regard war on the’ United States, however we may deprecate it, as one of the probabilities.” With that situation staring them in the face, the British military authorities have not been idle. While we of the Uniied States have been indulging in laughter at the notion that any European power would dare attack us, the British war office and admiralty have been actively engaged in Preparation for the clash which may come at any moment in spite of all the argu- ments that can be advanced to show why amicable relations should continue. We, however, have done practically nothing to bring about a condition of comparative readiness, so we may not fairly criticise the Broad Arrow when it says that the general position of the United States and Great Britain at war would be strikingly analagous to that of China and Japan. The comparison is of course overdrawn, for while we are nothing like as weil equipped for war as is the smallest of European powers, yet we have a vast fighting population in which is a spirit of patriotism the like of which China nevér knew and which is fully equal to the high- of British enthusiasm. It is nonsense to say that “there are millions of American citizens who are only such by lew, and have no real American sentiment. Our experience during the civil war teach us that the naturalized citizen was in every respect the peer of him whese American birthright Was his pride If Great Britain is figuring upon internal dissension in the United Sates in case of war with the em- It is true— unfortunately true—that nothing else that could happen would bring about more rap- id, more enthusiastic or more solid coalition of all the people, of all the states, than a war with Great Britain. Changes are common enough in official life at the national capital and many of the transfers are comparatively unheeded. The departure of Mr. Shinichiro Kurino, who has so acceptably represented Japan at the seat of this government, is to be a marked exception to the rule. Mr. Kurino has been prominent among the mest popu- lar members of the diplomatic corps, so his transfer to Italy will be the cause of sincere regret in the social circles of Wash- ington. Friendliness toward Japan is now an American trait; Minister Kurino has contributed liberally toward the growth of that international affection which Is al- ways desirable. 202 Those who are In charge of the construc- tion of the new city post-office bullding a: sert that there were one hundred and thirty men—only one hundred and thirty—em- ployec thereon today. a It seems probable that Mr. Quay’s visit to Canton was for the purpose of convine- ing Major McKinley that the time has come for “us favorite sons” to stick to- gether. «= Mr. Hanna gets his declination of a cab- inet preferment in early. This gives him plenty of time to gracefully follow the usual custom and change his mind. >< It seems a trifle paradcxical that Mr. Hill shculd be compelled to exert so much erergy to prevent the Senate from doing semething. + 0 The man who vows not to shave until McKinley is elected President is untrue to his political idol. ——_+ += Spain has probably decided to try amia- Lility as a last resort.
