6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than three times as large as that of any other paper, morning or evening, publUshed in Washing- ton. Ax n News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. G7 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 Edltorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tener or purpore. THE STAR BY MAIL. Persons leaving the city for any period can have The Star mailed to them to any address in the United States or Canada, by ordering it at s office, In person or oy letter, or postal card. ‘Terms: 13 cents per k; 25 cents for two we2ks, or 50 cents per month. Invariably in ad- vance. Subscribers changing their address from one Post-office to another should give the last address as well as the new one. The contractor who | Merove and properly ! %arbage has quarreled with the proprietor ¢ Incinerating plant. The disagreement uted exclusively in yesterday's ached an acute stage, for the ractor has extinguished the furnace and will not, he asserts, receive any more garbage until the principal contractor pays what is alleged to be an overdue bill. The garbage contractor has, therefore, re- turned to the old, cheap and altogether nasty method of shipping garbage down the Potomac in scows. This plan is, of course, much more to the liking of the garbage con- tractor than any other that couid easily be devised; it is the least expensive way to go through the form of getting rid of the daily accumulations of refi The public has nothing to do directly with either the contractor or the subcon- tractor; s di ngs must be with the District Commissioners, who have allowed this unwholesome situation to develop. From the outset the Commissioners have been much too lenient with the garbage contractor; his vagaries have been borne and his shortcomings have frequently gone unrebuked, while the amount of money paid him as compensation has been inex- creased. This is one of the few titions suffered by the District for Cengress is not to blame. Congress in the keeping of the Commissioners funds suf t to establish and maintain an unexceptionably efficient system of garbage collection and disposal, but for some reason or other the Commissioners have failed to administer as they were expected to; they have been paying the ces for the scow- or part, and are, contractor dumping pro: so far as on not suihicier way in whi masterly funs the c h’ the contr: elf. to suit hi of the scow ent, and as soon as a c n was made against it C gress 1 upon the Commissioners power t 1 into, by the med e garbage and incin- dorous and effective fur- rate and contractor a year—as asation as the sum of % advance in comy > has been burn- t; the fleet of Recently contractor that the nereupon the ‘on to the garbage monarch to 2 the Potomae as a dumping- but it {s not in evidence that they con:pen- ing openly ted by the management that the garbage as exerted himself to bring uation as it now is; that he nned the delivery of to render its incineration Whether th ceusations are or are not true, it is in that it is the ass crematory contractor ble. garbage contractor who he beneficiary, for he is highest rate of compexsation for the cheapest form of dis- posal; he gets $57,000 for doing what was dene two years ago for 32 In view, the . of Washington’s ex- per » with the garbage dictator, it is not difficult to imagine that he ts more than willirg to save the tonnage tax he had to pay the crematory subcontractor, when, he can do so with impunity. y in this or any other itions which here and now result in an outburst of popu- indignation that could not be calmed by ything short of iy and thorough No other ¢ nity would re: under the abs rule of a con- to w must pay $5 wou om we gs in the public behalf, The Star ully suggests to the District Com- missioners that they assume the powers and dignities conferred upon them by law and see to it either that the contractor per- forms his garbage incinerating agreement to the letter, or that he is paid only what the inferior service which he renders is actually worth until, through somebody else, the cremation or reduction of the Washington garbage, for which the local tax money was appropriated, is accom- plished. ——_+ «+ __ industry displayed In getting the n roof on the post-office out of sight furnishes a forcible reminder of the agility with which the ostrich puts its head in the sand.

The prediction that “fine work” will In the end prevail at St. Louls and at Chi- cago, with the politicians getting what they want at both places, is often heard. Those Whoemake it shake a knowing head and indu ces. The bare . MeKiniey has a majority of s delegates instructed for him hing, they declare. Other men Many things may pen between now and convention time, and even in the preliminary stages of the convention itself, calculated to put a dif- ferent face on things from that they now Mr. McKinley's strength is de- nized strength of a certain popular enthusiasm. It will disap- Pear before the assaults of a veteran op- position. And so on. z0, according to estimates from me source, the contest will again be between sentiment and business. The silver men may appear there in the majority. They may be well and resolutely led. But they will be from the south and the west, and no match for the trained men from the east, with great enterprises hanging in the balance and everything to nerve them to their best endeavors. Sentiment will again go down. Shrewd management will again prevail. But, as often as this prediction is heard, it makes no impression on the soberer class of men. In that quarter the opinion obtains that this js not a year for “fine work” in either party. There is too much at stake. The people are too much inter- ested, and they are too well informed about the issues and the situation. ‘Fine work,” it is pointed out, is best performed when there is a sudden turn in affairs—when no wide advertisement has put people on their guard. But now everybody is on guard. Both the tariff and the silver questions have been under discussion for years, and whatever is reasonably to be expected from’ a campaign of education 1s now available. The people are expressing themselves at j the primaries, and whatever they demand there will have to be secured by the repre- sentatives they send to the national con- ventions, or else very serious consequences will follow. A plain reversal, even by the most expert means, of the popular judg- ment. at either convention would, it is thought, put the tieket of the party so of- fending hopelessly out of the race. It is this feeling which leads to the counter prediction that, as Mr. McKinley has won at the primaries, he will win at St. Louis, and that, if silver wins at the democratic primaries, the Chicago conven- tion will adopt a silver platform and put a silver man in nomination for President. ——___ ++ —_—__ What Will the House Do? One of the most extraordinary communi- cations ever forwarded to Congress is that which is now in the hands of the House committee on appropriations and which deals with the cases of eleven persons who were, it is asserted by the congressional commission, injured in the Ford Theater disaster and deserve financial relief, but who, in the opinion of the clerks whose views are set forth in the letter in ques- tion, were not worthy the consideration that has been given them. It will now be for the House of Representatives to decide between the recommendations of the con- gressional commission and these staie- ments, which so far as they are proper evidence in the case ought to have been sub- mitted to this investigating commission. The congressional commission availed itself of the expert services of three government surgeons—one from the army, one from the navy and one from the marine nospital service—who carefully examined into the merits of each claim and who subjected to the closest professional scrutiny each sur- vivor who applied for the long-delayed financial relief. With the reports of these surgeons before it, the commission pro- ceeded to sift the testimony and to estab- lish a rating upon which an estimate for an appropriation could be based. The commission has not been accused of extravagance in its recommendations; as a matter of fact it has made the amounts much smaller than the amounts should lave been; it shaved much more closely than would any jury in a court of law. It is therefore surprising to note this double- headed assault—upon the commission and upon eleven of the beneficiaries named in the bill which passed the Senate yesterday. If it be true, as asserted, that this report has been in the hands of the Secretary of War for several months, it would be inter- esting to many to know why the Secretary should have withheld the document until the Senate had appropriated the money to settle the claims, instead of submitting it to the congressional commission. ——_ e+ — Only one hundred and sixty-five men were employed on the new city post-office building today. Some were repainting the rusting ironwork; others were covering up the yellow pine testimony which knocks out the claim that the roof is fireproof. — If the new Czar wishes to avold much future embarrassment he will refrain from putting too much emphasis on his mission as a reformer when he assumes the reins of government. 7 ——__-+e2< Mr. Bowler unqu nably has a great deal of backbone, but he was unfortunate in his selection of an occasion to manifest it. ——___ + e+ —___.

SHOOTING STARS. By an Anxious Politician, Will all this glittering display With consequence so fraught, Pass on as a band-wagon gay Or a car of juggernaut? Woman's Intuition, “What is the ‘unit rule?’ said the wife of the energetic patriot. “It's an arrangement by which a whole lot of men yete as one.” Is it popular?” mewhat. Why do you ask?” “I had somehow gotten the impression that the method frequently preferred was to get cne man to vot? as a whole lot.” A Wise Youth. “No,” said the young man with a bulging brow, “I never accept any invitations to play poker in a company where there are to be any strangers.” ‘Afraid of them?" “Yes. That is to say, I am afraid of their opinion. If I lose they laugh and say I'm too easy, and if I win they wonder whether I'm a crook.” “Doan’ cross er bridge till yoh gits ter it,” said Uncle Eben, “but at de same time dean’ sit down an’ spose dat de bridge is gwinter be dah waitin’ foh yer ebry time, wheddah yoh superinten’s de building ob it or not.” Did Not Desize to Criticise. Mr. Meekton’s wife was eyeing him sus- piciously as he ate his breakfast. “You don’t seem to like the biscuits,” said. ‘What is the matter with them “Oh, nothin’ much.” “Then why don’t you eat them.” “I don’t feel much like eatin’ biscults this morning.” “Then there must be something the mat- ter with them or with you.” “Well, to tell you the truth, they're a little more burnt than I ordinarily like ’em. And I hope you won't think I'm fault- finding and not willing to make allowances. I know that human nature's human na- ture, and it isn’t with any idea of blame that I remark that lately when ye ain't scorchin’ on the bicycle ye're scorchin’ on the cook stove. I ‘spose the two just naturally go together.” x Help in Sight. Oh, potent seniors, wherefore pause And knit each reverend brow, In solemn study o’er the laws To which mankind must bow? Why contradict and storm and flout? Just wait a bit, we pray, Till Phyllis brings her essay out On graduation day.
