As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7 Im order to avoid delays, om 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 Editorinl or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or parpore. A Chance to Help. An opportunity Is now presented for the citizens of Washington to give practical evidence of their interest in the free pubiic Library which has been created by law and which now needs books and money to be of real use to the people for whose benefit it is intended. In The Star today appears an explanaticn of the situation, accom- panied by a coupon blank to be filled in by those desiring to aid the library. There is ro minimum limit placed upon the gifts; a single dollar cr a single volume will be Just as welcome as the gifts of those whose interest in the project, through the greater reans of the donors, takes a more liberal fcrm. If each one of the thousands of cit- izens who have expressed themselves pub- licly in behalf of the library will tender is mite, the shelves will soon be filled. Congress will at the next session make an appropriation to defray the administrative expenses of the library. It likewise hoped that next winter the District will ob- tain the long-delayed appropriation for a municipal building, which is to contain quarters for the public Mbrary. There is a great deal of work to be done, therefore, by the trustees and others associated with the enterprise, and their task will be greatly lightened !f the citizens will give them their aid and support in the manner indicated. It is thought that it will be far sier to secure the desired legislation if | the Commissioners, library trustees an‘ Board of Trade can show to Congress that the people here are sufficiently aroused to the need for municipal library facilities to | denate freely money and books to this worthy object. No one who has observed the strength of the popular movement for the public library entertains any doubts as to the existeace of a powerful local senti- ment in its favor or questions in the least that the opportunity to give substantial expression to the sentiment will be quick! and gladly utilized. ——. see -___ Fruitless Appeals to Sectionalism. The sound-money victory is in evidence every division of the republic and the peal to the sectional spirit which was * west and south against the east nin vain. This cofdition is one of the happiest results of the election. The enly sol in opposit‘on are the Iver m @ states, whose interest is ob- and the Gulf states with some ad- ern states, whose votes hav ily cast with more refer- magined threat of negro dom!- eal threat of populisttc sions of opinion nes.

Real estaie alues held their own remarkably well in view of the inactivity enforced by the | political uncertainties. There was a period of marked sluggishness that could be easily | traced to the unwillingness of capitalists to lend money, even on first-class securities. They did not care or dare to risk repay- ment under a depreciated currency system and held aloof from making loans unttl they could clearly see the financiql future. But there was no sacrificing of values in a rush to sell, for a comparatively small percentage of Washington's real estate is held on a speculative basis. There is no surer evidence of the firm foundation on which locai business rests than this staunchness during a period of great uncer-| tainty and even of excitement bordering en panic. Now that it Is all over the market becomes positively active once more, and the coming building season will witness the ¢xyenditure of many thousands of dollars that will eagerly scek Investment. Rough Bicycle Racing. Most o¢ the participants in the so-called road race that took place on the Conduit road yesterday afternoon are doubtless well persuaded of the wisdom of the League of American Wheelmen in discountenancing this forn: of “sport.” It was a rough, dan- gerous affair and from all accounts it snould be difficult for another such exhi- bition of rough riding to be arranged soon in the District. Making due allowance for the peculiarities of the average “scorcher” it is questionable whether any material percentage of the participants in yester- day's race would be willing to again con- front the dangers and run the risks in- volved in a race of that kind. It is a mar- vel that lives were not lost. Much of the blame is to be put upon the people who crowded on the course and made collisions and accidents possible, but at best it is a poor way to test the qualities of speedy wheelmen. The ordinary factors of success in bicycle races, such as speed, endurance and wind, are discounted by the chance of collision and the unwieldy entry list prac- tically puis a premium on unfair riding. Track races afford the best test and are much more easily managed. The best in- terests of good,-clean sport demand that these races be entirely abandoned. —_“seoeoe—_— Major McKinley may look like Napoleon, but he is a great deal luckier whea a Waterloo is announced as a feature of the pregram. — oe ___ Tom Watson's importance in the cam- paign was not even sufficient to ledd to his being blamed for Bryan's defeat. — + = —___ Mr. Bryan's Manifesto. Mr. Bryan's address to his party is a characteristic document, and was expected by the country. It is a distinct bid for another presidential nomination, and it is easily to be seen that Mr. Bryan is already building on a confident bellef in its ef- fectiveness. Thus is demonstrated again the strong fascination that attaches to even the briefest experience in national political leadership. Mr. Bryan as a presi- dential nominee was altogether certain that one term in the White House would fully satisfy his ambition. Without solicitation | | Cleveland on anybody's part, he formally pledged himseif to that effect. He misses election, and forthwith enters himself for the next race. He would as surely have been a can- didate again had he won this race. Not that in pledging himself not tobe, in those circumstances, a candidate again, he was purposely trifling with the country, but that he spoke without considering the tre- mendous temptations and obligations of the Presidential office. He now knows that even a serious thought of the White House stirs the blood profoundly. But 1900, for Mr. Bryan’s purposes, is really a long time off. He will encounter many difficulties in trying to carry out the Program he has arranged. Expressions from his followers now may be never so fervent and sincere, but hope is not dead in the breasts of other presidential aspir- ants. It is entirely safe to assume that those gentlemen will be heard from in time. If the nomination of that party should prove to be at all tempting that year, the chances are that Mr. Bryan will have to fight for what he gets. It is likewise a safe assumption that the issue then will not be the issue upon which a national campaign has just closed. The republican party will take office in March, with both a purpose and the power to exe- cute it. It will be strong in leadership, and strong in the confidence of the country. So far as the currency question is concerned, it will have the aid of the sound money democrats in its efforss to so legislate on that as to take it out of the arena of par- tisan agitation. The prospects are for ac- tion beneficial to the country, and meriting the approval of the country. Mr. Bryan, moreover, will, as the time rolls on, be advised of this: that continued agitation of the money question, simply for agitation’s sake, or to elect him President, will not be a strong card to play. The people of the United States want good gov- ernment and stable government, and if the republican policies give them that, they will not be likely, with the experience of 1892 fresh In mind, to stop pursuit of every- day affairs and go off again in search of the bag of gold at the end of the rainbow. he General Lee's Admissions. General Lee, as was to be expected, is extremely guarded in discussing the Cu- ban situation for publication. His o:ficial position imposes caution, and, besides, by siving his views at this time he would in some measure forestall the Presiient. Mr. in a short time is to address Congress on the subject, and much of what he then says will probably be based upon what General Lee now says to him. Two things of importance, however, Gen- eral Lee, with perfect propriety, lets fall. One ts that the struggie on the island gives ro sign of speedy cessation. The other as the natural consequences of war, siness 13 paralyzed, and great destru tlon of valuable property goes on. In eral Lee's opinion, “the island is gradually ruined.” Here we have, from the very highest source, cunfirmation of the very proposi- tions upon which American sympathy with Cuba is founded. After cuntetiding, upon broad ground, that the Cuban people are worthy of freedom, and being oppressed are justified in trying to throw off their oppressors, the people of this country hol that Spain has shown her inabitity to put down the war, and that the destruction of the istand toward that end ought not to be permitted. The devastation, of course,.is the work of both sides. But on the one side it is an Instrument of oppression, While on the other tt is an instrument in the interests of liber of a greater development. 1f Spain recovers control of an island turned over from shcre to shore she will long have only @ waste place on her hands. The pe ple will be slow to restore that which orig- inally invited the oppressor, and which if restored will induce him to Ughten his chains. But if, in the end, Cuba secures ne being independence, the fact that ashes every- where appear, and that the work of restor- al, ation is colos: will not deter the rapid cution of work. It may even act as a spur. The people, with their destiny last in their own hands, will spring for- ward to tasks from which when compieted so much of happiness and prosperity will proceed. ‘The people of the United States could now if they tried stile their feelings for the people of Cuba. They do not desire to ; Rave ap ash-heap off their coast, or an island, capabie ot so mucii, in so backward a state of development. They would Sreatly preter to see that fertile spot in every way improved, and inhabited by a people at liberty, ke themselves, to work vut their ¢wn' ends. Spain in Cuba is a turbuient and objectionable neighbor. We much prefer a neighbor of another type, and Cuba, if set free, will suit us precisel, What will Mr. Cieveland do about i Help somewhat to relieve the situation? or turn over the whole job to Mr. McKin- le a Kleptomanta. No more remarkable case of kleptomania will ever be recorded than that of Mrs. Castle, who was yesterday sentenced in London to three months imprisonment for pilfering a number of valuabie articles for which she wes amply able to pay. There have een many other instances of this peculiar mental ailment, and many more in which the excuse of kleptomama was char- itably accepted with a grain of salt, but never before has a person thus afilicted been subjected to such world-wide publicity and finally made to suffer so harsh a sen- ten it speaks well for the impartiality of English justice, maybe, that Mr. and Mrs. Castle's wealth and social position were not permitted to interfere with a strict inquiry into the case, but the sen- tence will nevertheless be generally con- demned as unnecessarily severe. Were the plea of kieptomania believed, and were it proved that there was no criminal intent behind the thefts the accused should have been liberated as innocent, but as a fit sub- ject for treatment as ore demented. On the other hand if the plea of mental srre- sponsibility were rejected as unproved, and if the court held Mrs. Casile to be guilty of inexcusable theft her station in life should not have saved her from satisfying the law to the full extent warranted by the value of the articles taken. But the court seems to have compromised, with the usual result that little satisfaction is given. The verdict and the sentence, taken together, virtually mean: “We believe you to be afilicted with kleptomania, and therefore entitled to sym- pathy; we also believe you stole for gain and therefore we sentence you to a punish- ment that is neither as heavy as the case demands nor as light as your mental con- dition would justify; and we eacuse our action by relying upon some other au- thority than our own for review and re- vision.”” ——_+ e+____ In announcing that free silver will be the issue four years hence democratic jead- ers appear to forget the mistaken confi- dence with which it was declared by the McKinley management that protection would be the sole issue in the campaign just concluded. ——__ +e —___ Chairn an Jones has amply demonstrated that he can be Something of a claimer him- self not only when the occasion arises, but even when the occasion’ is lacking. ——_-+ 2+ ___ Many admirers of Mr. Bryan are inclined to the opinion that he may make a serious mistake in relying on free silver as a pro- fession. ——_~+2—____ By rurning ahead of the national ticket Mayor Pingree of Detroit ‘demonstrated that he is by no means the smallest po- tato in the hill.

North Da- kota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia and Wis- consin, representing 260 votes in the elec- toral coliege; the result in Wyoming, South Dakota and Kentucky was still in doubt at the end of the week; the democratic electors were chosen in Alabama, Arkan- sas, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, North Caro- lina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and Washington, represent- ing 167 votes in the electoral college; elec- tion day was pleasant except in the Da- kotas and the country south; the vote poll- ed generally broke the record; the result was indicated by the republican gains in Chicago and Iliinois and Indiana; the dem- ocratic managers refused to yield for sev- eral days, and bogus bulletins excited the Bryan followers in Chicago, Cincinnati, Baltimore, St. Louis and other cities, who paraded and declared that attempts were being made to count out their candidate; subsequently all doubt was removed and the defeated candidate congratulated Presi- dent-elect McKinley; hardly had the an- nouncement of the result been made when reports came in announcing the re-establish- meni of confidence and the reopening of mills and factories. Mr. Bryan issued an address “to the bimetallists of the United States,” in which he urged the silver men to centinue their contest and prepare for 19). Secretary Carlisle called for the resignations of several employes in the Treasury De- partment who had been active in the free silver campaign.

Self-Interest. “It's surprising that so many members of the theatrical profession were in favor of McKinley's candidacy?" remarked the com- mercial traveler. “Well,” replied the song-and-dance man, “it's this way. A lot o’ the members of the profession are like me an’ my partner here. We're so good that when we're doin’ our act the people is just as likely as not to get up on the chairs in their excitement and throw money at us.
