THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY...............October 19, 1886, CROSBY S. NOYBS..............-Kdito: THE EVENING STAR has « regular end permanent Family Circulatior much more than three times as large any other paper, moraing as that As a News and Advertising Medium it hus no competitor. o7 Im 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 Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. Dangerous Junctions. Saturday night’s collision between cable and electric cars at the corner of Ninth street and Pennsylvania avenue adds Irre- sistible force to the argument so often ‘made in The Star for the posting of a flag- man at that dangerous crossing. A spirit of rivalry inspires the gripmen and motor- men of these practically competing lines to take advantage of their opportunities to gain time by claiming the right to cross first. When the judgment of two men is relied upon under such circumstances the element of danger is doubled. Even with a flagman in command of the junction, the danger would not be entirely removed. But the responsibility is then fixed upon one in- dividual in case of disaster instead of being divided between two, with a poor prospect of ever being able to fasten it upon the one Yeally at fault. It is not for the purpose of administering punishment, however, that the responsibility must be concentrated, but to prevent accidents. This and other juncticns in different parts of the city are tog dangerous to be permitted to be left un- guarded any longer, and the Commissioners would be justified in compelling the roads at once to contribute equally to the pay of @ corps of flagmen, to be stationed at these various crossings. It might be advisable for the men to be appointed directly by the Comm'ss‘oners and considered as public ser- vants, being paid from a fund made up by assessments upon the different street rail- way companies in proper proportions. ‘Then, perhaps, the passengers on the rapid transit trains and on the few remaining— yet too many—horse cars would be given a degree of immunity from the chance of be- ing maimed or killed such as is not now en- joyed by Washingtonians. It takes no part of the force from this object lesson that the ccllision in this case resulted so harm- lessly. That is a matter for congratula- tion, but it is no answer to the forcible hint given by the crash between the cars. 2 = Good Bicycle Detective Work. No part of the work of the police detec- tives is of more interest to the average cit- izen nowadays than that which relates to the recovery of stolen bicycles. In Wash- ington, it is estimated, there are now fully fifty thousand wheels in use, and, as Chief Clerk Sylvester of the police department Pointed out in his recently ‘submitted an- nual report, this is a peculiarly easy and tempting form of plunder for thieves. Dur- ing the last fiscal year reports were made to headquarters of 156 bicycles stolen from their owners. Amid such a multitude of wheels the detection of the missing ones might well seem an impossible task, yet so well organized has been this branch of the work, and so thorough are the methods of the men assigned to the duty, that 117 of the stolen machines were recovered, and of the remainder twenty-seven’ were found by their owners, leaving only twelve bicy- cles undiscovered, or less than eight per cent of the whole number. Compared with the percentage of success in other lines of detective work, this is a remarkable show- ing, especially as the thieves are very clever in devising schemes to destroy the identity of their booty. The police, too, are commendably active in arresting and pros- ecuting these robbers, and several noto- rious cycle stealers are now in custody. Such good work is heartily appreciated by the wheeling public, now so large a factor in all large cities. ——__+ e+ ___ An Imperfect Substitute. The Washington, Alexandria and Mt. Ver- non Railway Company—or the Pennsyl- vania R. R., whichever may be known as the primarily accountable agency of opera- ticn—is giving the public but a poor sub- stitute for the Comparatively steady and reliable steam train service between here and Alexandria by means of the trolley line that, it was promised, was to surpass the cid method in ail respects. Delays are far tore frequent than ean be excused on the ground of rew construction. Both the over- head and underground systems of propul- sion are now well understood by electrical engineers and there can be no good reason alleged for the frequency with which the power proves insufficient for its load, or is suddenly shut off, as was done last Friday right when a heavily laden car was left stranded a long distance from the destina- tion of its passengers. There is always more or less looseness about tramway schedules, compelled partly by the frequent stoppings; but even after due consideration is given to this fact there is room for just and severe criiicism of the irregularities of this road's operation. The steam railroad service was pretty good and doubtless many of those who are obliged to travel back and forth between the cities and intermediate points would welcome a return to the old methods until, at least, the electric service is put on a more reliable footing. ———_- +e —__ There Is a tribute to Mr. Bryan's versa- tlity snd to the comprehensive scope of his ambitions in the story that, having been a lawyer ani editor, he aspired at the same time to be a theatrical press- agent, with possibilities as an actor in view, and also President of the United States. Those who have seen Mr. Bryan and heard him speak think that he would be a@ success as an ector. ——__ + ee —___ Mr. Altgeld might have added, “if you want my opinion of the Supreme Court, listen to the remarks of the lawyers who have pleaded cases befcre it and lost them,” ——- e =. Secretary Carllsle’s speech-making tour of Kentucky is Mkely to prove as severe a test as his personal magnetism was ever subjected to. — ++2—___ Two Standards of Conduct. The visit of Gov. Altgeld to New York Raturally excites some inquiry. Why did he go? What was to be gained by travel- ing so far at this stage of the game? He made one speech and then turned back. He is 20t an orator, and one speech for free silver, even by the greatest of orators, could do no good in New York. I: 1s not difficult to understand the order- ing of a man like George Fred Williams to the west. He is a mere popinjay, and his candidacy a mere form. He has not the ghest of a chance to be elected governor of Massachusetts, and bis absence from home is of no consequence except as it contrib- utes to the comfort of serious-minded peo- ple there. But Gov. Altgeld carries some weight. He is of enough consequence to be considered a dangerous man, and he Is “the shield and sword and standard” of the Bry- anites in Illinois. They are fighting at close quarters out there, and hence when this leader retires from the local field even for a few days, and rushes off to a place where there is no fighting going on at all, it is natural that there should be some cu- riosity to know the reason why. A plausible suggestion offered in New York is that Gov. Altgeld was hunting a bit of martyrdom... He wanted to-be howled down for effect at home. He wanted to re- turn to his people with the smell of an out- rage on his garments, perpetrated by the gold bugs. within. the very akadow of Wall street. That, he considered, would help him in the anarchistic quarters of Chicago, and fire the hearts of every tough in the town. If such was the governor's game, it failed utterly. He was not molested at all. He spoke at length, and with characteristic bitterness, but not so as to excite even protest. Nobody essayed to interfere with him. He found a town where, so far as the gold bugs were concerned, free speech ruled. But, unfortunately for the silver cause, at about the very hour that Gov. Altgeld was holding forth in New York in the severest te-ms against the gold bugs and encounter- ing no interruptions, Gen. Palmer, speaking for sound money in Mobile, -was forced to cut his observations short by the outcries of a gang of rowdies who had taken promi- nent position in the hall. The rowdies were rebuked from the stage, of course. Mobile has long been the seat of education and re- finement. Many of her best citizens were Present on the occasion, and endeavored to protect the good name of the city, but the rowdies persisted, and an outrage was per- petrated. This sort of thing has from the beginning of the campaign characterized the silver crusade. With the exception of the indig- nity offered to Mr. Bryan at New Haven by a squad of college boys, the speakers for silver have had nothing to complain of in the way of interruptions at their meetings. The friends of sound money everywhere have carried themselves with discretion and the proper feeling. But noisy demon- Strations of disapproval have marked the pathway of nearly every sound money ora- tor. Gen. Harrison, Gens. Palmer and Buckner, Gov. O’Ferrall, within a stone's throw of the governor's mansion, Bourke Cockran, Col. Ingersoll and others of note have had to contend with a spirit of row- dyism, reprehensible in the extreme and wholly un-American. Even Mr. Carlisle, now about to start for a tour of his native state, is threatened with a mob reception at his meetings. Do the silver men really believe that suc- cess is obtainable by such means? ——_>+e—____ Tom Watson Is to take the stump again. He does not propose to let the middle-of- the-road ticket suffer through any Manley- ism. ee Under the influence, perhaps, of the “law of diminishing returns,” the force op the city post office building today comprised only forty-five men. —— e+ ___ Whenever John Y. McKane recalls the pardon cf Bardsley, he feels that he is be- ing discriminated against. a 8 Kentucky 1s being. claimed by nearly everybody except the prohibitionists. —_~--+___ SHOOTING STARS. “I doan’ like er man,” said Uncle Eben, “dat seems ter git his chief religious com- fert by regyahdin’ heaven 2 er ‘place dat ‘is enemies is gwinter wanter git inter an’ can't.”” Perverse. The farmer's boy -neets with disdain The orchards autumn call; He'd rather steal the apples green, Than pick them in the fall. Two Kinds. “I don’t quite see,” r2marked the man who has a penchant for telling the truth the shortest way, “what you expect to gain by standirg around and talking poli- ties.”" “I do not stand around and talk politics for the sake of pcssible gain,” was the answer, uttered with great dignity. “I am anxious about the weifare of my coun- try.” “T'm just as anxious as you are?” “How have you shown your patriotism? Tel me that. What I have been raising my voice in the highways and writing arti- ces gratis for the press, what have you been doing?” “Nothing much. All I did was to stick to my business and earn money enough to be able to send a check to the campaign fund.” An Ineffectual Training. The actor was talking about the histrionic ambitions attributed to W. J, Bryan. “Mebbe,” he remarked, “he would get along first rate as a member of the profes- sion.” “Get along!” was the reply. “He'd be a phenomenal success. After he gets through with his political ambitions he’ll just turn in and be another of these outsiders who come in and make it that much Narder for the old-timers to get engagements. That's what makes the drama what it is—or rather what it isn’t.” = do for the business “Why, There wouldn't be any more chance of his getting stage-fright on a first night than there would of Herr Most’s taking dinner with Secretary Olney.” “That's true.” look at the practice he’s had. “And think of the advertising he’s had.” “That would help. Still he'd be a begin- ner, and he'd have his way to make. He's had some advantages, but if he’s going to elevate the stage, he’s making a big mis- take. He’s done altogether too much traveling in parlor cars this campaign to cvercome the habit easily. If he had really meant business, he'd have gotten out and walked the ties between stations by way of practice.” A Palpable Mistake. ‘The elderly man had nodded approvingly now and then at the poem which a youth- ful friend was reading. The title was “Twilight.” It seemed to give satisfaction until the reader came to these lines: “Night waits by the shore with a heart that is cold, Till the sun has sailed west with his burden id.” said the elderly man. “That “Why, those are among the finest lines of the composition.” “It’s tco risky. You've got the sun sail- ing west with a burden of gold.” “It’s only a figure of speech.” “I know that. But you've got to show some respect for the probabilities in a fig- ure of speech the same as anywhere else. The idea: of the sun’s taking chances on wetting into Colorado with a cargo of that kind is too irrational even for poetry.” The Ballad of the Street. Once men’s anger rudely bristled When they heard your simple strain Played or sung, or vilely whistled, Everywhere with might and main. But we've learned to feel more kindly - Toward the tunes we once despised; Toward the oards we blamed so blindly, Since the glee club organized. We are sad and msanthropic When these campaign folk enthuse With “Free-Coinage” as a topic To inspire the minstrel muse. Men who once were all disdainful, Yield to horror undisgu!sed; They have sorrows far more painful Since the glee club organized. How we long to go and lasso Every man who sings a note; Every tenor, every basso, When he warbles for a vote. “Sweet Marie,” would seem a blessing; “Comrades” would be truly prized As a balm for things distressing Since the glee club organized.
