The conferees upon the District appro- priation bill, after a protracted struggte in which exch con has undoubtedly la- bored conscientiousiy for what con- ceived to be the public now agreed and the bill has he numerous intments caused by the failure of meritorious propositions urged as items of this bill should not and do not blind the people of the District of Colum- bia to the fact that the measure as a whole compares favorably with other local appropriation acts, ani is creditable to the faithful and disinterested labors of the na- tional legislators who ve shaped it. Where the conferees have disposed of puz- zling issues by compromise they have in- geniousiy managed in several instances, notably in the cese of the charities and electric light controversies, to satisfy both sides, and in other instances while refusing what was asked for the present they have softened the rebuff by holding out hope for the future. The strony points of the meas- ure just enacted are clearly summarized in Repeesentative Grout’s sia‘ement printed elsewhere in The Star. Perhaps the most serious local disappointment in connection with the bill was the failure of the Senate conferees to insist upon, and the firmness the House conf in rejecting, the provision for utilizing the abandoned tun- increase the local suppiy. whole bject is a a of constant Irritation, to the people Year after year Congres: rat of appropriating to the full extenc of the District revenues to meet suitably current municipal expenses like those of the pohce and fire departments, schools, imp. ements, &c., has cut down ropriatiors and has used the money thus saved to pay off in advance of the arranged time an alleged indebtedness of the District in connection with the avan- ccred tunnel. The District was not respon- sible for the making of the tumiel, had no control over the work upon it, cannot be helt accountable for the blun Jer ng and the criminality connected with it, and has not enjoyed any increased wate- srpply or any other benefit from it to raise an i contract to contribute toward th it.

Since the ulilization of the tunnel will not only - relleve Washington from its ever impend- ing water famine, but save to the nation and capital over two millions of dollars which have been viewed as lost, it is rea- senable to expect that the Intelligent and areful investigation of the subject to Le made by Mr. Grout and his associates will result in conclusions entirely satisfaciory to the people of both capital and nation, whose interests in this matter are insep- arably interwoven. oe Sunday next is Flag Day, but as the public schools will not then be in session the annual celebration Is to take place to- morrow. It is a good thing to pay con- spicuous and patriotic homage to the na- tional colors at least one day in each year, and it is a good thing to impress upon the youthful mind the sity for honoring the emblem of liberty as it is under a re- publican form of government. Elsewhere than in the schools there will be remem- brance of the one hundred and nineteenth birthday of the stars and Stripes; public interest wiil be aroused and sustained in appropriate and temperate fashion. There cannot be overmuch of devotion to the flag. —+ e+ ___ Campbell's attitude while his views on free s cal he is open to conviction. — + ee There is enough left of the Morton boom to serve as a text on which Dr. Depew can say something interesting. ———~+ es _____ { looks us if Mr. Goies of Iowa might yet suc im stro, S$ up out of the dark horse class. made Ex-Governor to be are no 2 There were two hundred and thirty men employed today on the new city post-office building. oe The Administration’s Dilemm: The political discussion concerning Mr. Cleveland no longer relates to a third term. That proposition, it is thought, has been disp d of by the rise of silver sentiment in the democratic party. Speculation now relates to Mr. Cleveland's attitude after the democracy has made {ts selection at Chicago, and has written, as seems all but certain, a free coinage platform. What will his feelings be toward the nominee? What will his course be? These are Interesting questions. A free silver democrat running on a free silver platform will be calculated, in the old darky phrase, to “try his patience might- ily.” That will mean repudiation of the administration; and, in case of success at the polls, @ reorganization of the party on silver lines. Can Mr. Cleveland be expected to tamely submit to that? He could not, of course, actively participate in the cam- paign even {if both the candidate and the platform were to his lking—were made with the view of indorsing and continuing his oWn policy. But what will the simple fact of the antagonism count for in circles friendly to and in fvll agreement with Mr. Cleveland? Mr. Cleveland, it is known, puts the financial question above all other questions. His own position has been taken with de- liberation. He must stand or fall by the result. And more than that. He considers that the opening of the mints to the free coinage of silver would be disastrous to the public credit and entail incalculable losses on the country. In a certain sense, therefore, Mr. Cleveland puts the financial question above party. It is a question, as he sees it, calling for the utmost resistance against those who favor the free coinage of silver. Here, then, is the point. Mr. Cleveland as President can take no part in the fight himself. But he will be none the Yess on trial, and his friends none the less inter- ested. How will they carry themselves simply for knowing that the fight is against him? Democratic success will mean Mr. Cleveland's failure. Republican success will be in a measure a Cleveland success, so far as the financial question is con- cerned. If the sound money policy is in- dorsed at the polls and continued by the next administration, that will be an in- dorsement of the sound money sentiment of this administration. At any rate, such will be the claim of Mr. Cleveland's friends. Will they work for that? Or, if they do not openly work for it, will they vote for it on election day? It is an open secret that as soon as the Chicago work is completed, if Mr. Cleve- land does not volunteer an expression of some Kind, an effort will be made to in some wy draw him out. Both sides will be anxious to hear from him. ee Street Railroad Betterments. Slowly, but with gratifying certainty, the street-railroad conditions at the national capital are moving toward perfection. The latest effort to bring about much-needed betterment has been crystalized in the act ef Congress which has for it&S object the compulsory installation of mechanical mo- tors over the lines now or soon to be oper- ated by the Eckington-Belt syndicate. At the present time the local properties of this combination of capital do not appear to be extremely profitable, and the chances are that if the horse equipment was con- tinued the possibilities of profit would be- come smaller by degrees and beautifully less, but, with a sufficiency of improved motors and a schedule in which the inter- sts of the car-patronizing pubtic would be dered, there is no reason why the syndicate’s treasury should not soon be re- plenished with dollars. The management of the combined roads inclines to the be- lief that the best results will be achieved by the use of compressed air, but as that riety of propulsion is still in a somewhat experimental stage of existence in t country, though successful in France, the law has properly provided that in cas comp" “1 air fails to do the work it shall be eded by underground electricity; as to the practic: lity of which there is now no question. When the Eckington- It renovation is complete, there will then be left only one line in the city operated by horseflesh—the bob-tailed arrangement which is known among men as the Ana- costia and Potomac River railroad. The competition with this road which has been provided by this session of Congress prom- ises to bring about abolition of the horse cars upon its line in the near future. +e Ordinarily the man who says “I told you so” is not entitled to and does not receive much attention.

A Congressional C “iU's very warm just no’ “But I will not despair. i've heard some folks from home predict Vil find it chilly there.” mfori, he said, “De reason some men doan’ git "long bet- ter,” said Uncle Eben, “is dat dey spen's too much time huntin’ roun’ foh er poli- tician dat kin’ legislate de mortgages oft'n deir fahms.” All Kinds of Rumors. “L dunno’s I exactly know where ter lo- cate ‘is financial policy,” said Farmer Corn- tossel. “A good many says it's a gold standard,” said the man who keeps the store. “Yes; an’ a good many others says it's a gold brick.” Resentful. “De way some folks goes ‘roun’ inter- ferin’ sutny do ‘cite my disapprobation, she said indignantly. “Whut's de mattuh?” asked the woman to whom she was talking. “The white lady whah I wuhks come ter me an’ she says, ‘Hanner,’ she says, ‘yon sulny did clean house bad dis spring.

The man who tries io be careful in the use of his language wore a puzzled ex- pression and was silent. “What's the matter?” his wife inquire. “I am in doubt as te what reply I ought to make to your question. You asked me some minutes since how I spent this afternoon.” “Well, I will have to leave it to your own judgment.
