TRE EVENING STAR has « recular aad permanent Family Circulation much more than three times as large that of any other paper, morning evening, publish: ‘Washing- ton. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. 7In order to avoid delays, om ac- ecunt of personal absence, letters to TRE STAR should not be addressed te any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. An Undentable Necessity. Arguments are unnecessary to demon- strate to the people of the District that they need and are entitled to a new muntici- pal building; hence the report of the com- mittee of the Board of Trade on vublic buildings, reproduced in last evening's 1s- sue of The Star, is designed especially to at- tract the attention and arouse the interest of the members of those congressional committees having directly in charge the affairs of the national capital. The com- mittee has learned by experience that one of the most potent factors causing a fail- ure of the efforts of the past to secure an appropriate muntelpal office building here has been the imability of certain mem- bers of Congress to obtain appropria- tions for Federal! buildings in their own localities for several years. Of course there ts no justice or equity in making the District share their ill-luck, for the project for a municipal build- ing here does not fall in the same cate- gory as their endeavors to induce Con- gress to grant public building appropria- tions for the states, inasmuch as the latter are for Federal purposes only while the desired municipal buildirg here is designed mainly to meet pressing local needs, and one-half of ‘he expense of such a structure would be paid by the local taxpayers. statistic: mted by the commi elming in their demonstration of the lect which the District has suffered overw ne court purposes for in ten of the larger cities of the country ows how the capi- tal has been discriminated against in this matter. F cities, New York, Philadelphia, an Francisco and Pittsburg. were enumerated by the census ef 18% as being larger than Washington others, Detroit, Milwaukee, », Omaha and Kansas City, were shown to have Kansas Ci smaller populations. In fact ich enjoys a Federal build- ing cos was by this census recorded as only a little more than half as large as Washington. Another difficulty in the way of securir ion on this import- ant matter is the fact that In prosecuting the effort work must be done with three committees of each house, the committees on the District, on public buildings and grounds and on appropriations. With this division of responsibility the task of press- ing a bill to Its passage is unusually hard, for the labor is practicaliy trebled. But the Federal courts are so miserably housed here that the government has a more direct interest in immediate action than it would have if the project contemplated only a municipal building. Now that there is a practical agreement to place the new struc- ture on Judiciary square and to include ac- commodations for the courts occupying the antiquated and dilapidated city hall, Con- gress may be Induced io grant the desired legislation without wasting further time and ihus adding to the ultimate cost. ——_+ +2 —___ . Keeping Up the Fight. The southern states which voted for Mr. Bryan for President are responding, it is to be regretted, to his call for a continued agitation of the silver question. Mr. Push loses in Alabama, but will be succeeded by General Pettus, a silver man of equal aggressiveness. Governor Oates, who stood in the race for a mild form of sougd mon- got only a fourth as many votes as eneral Pettus. General Gordon retires in Georgia, but will be succeeded by Mr. Clay, who stands in the front rank of the free coinage contingent. Other cases, to be declded later, will be decided in the same way. Mr. Vest ts thought to have the call in Missouri. The only other man ed is Governor Stone, who vies with Mr. Vest in eloquent Pledges to silver’s interests. Mr. Jones is with a sup- > more usia because of the Bryan,campaign. Mr. Call mzy be beaten in Florida, but if will t some man who like himse! advocate and as a memb: uld be relied upon to si ation. The fight in Tex: not come maneuvering is all on silve up for two yea but preliminary s lines. Mr. kle Mr. Mills, and entorian tones. Mills is again safely within the Bailey is preparing to tac is talking free coinage in And Mr. silver lir ‘This record is regrettable because in the end the south must lose by it. No sectton ean, without loss, put itself in opposition and continue in opposition to business in- terests and business princip! ‘Those in- terests have been ascertained and” those principles declared, and the national policy is to be adjusted accordingly. These south- ern states, therefore, will appear in the light of protesters against the national policy, wrose success—and success in the end fs certain to crown that policy—will be a reflection on them. They will, it is true, benefit by that policy, because all sections will benefit by ft, but not In degree that they would as its supporters. Local im- provements cannot go forward as rapidly as they would out of the. shadow of free silver sentiment. Missouri, Alabama and Texas are all rich in nathral resources. All should invite investments. With investments all would speedily develop into hives of industry. But all are in antagonism now not only to the progressive spirit of the majority of the people of this country, but to that of the people of other leading countries. They are therefore raising up barriers rather than opening gates in welcome. SS There are a number of “Colonels” and “Judges” who will join in a petition to re- quire the Texas to charge its name if it ecntinues to indulge this habit of absorbing water. —_—__+ es ___ Spain has evidently been studying the Methods of that eminent tactician, James a. Corbett. ——___ + = ____ The Rights of Strect Cars. A collision yesterday between a bicycle fider and an electric car brings pointedly to mind the dangers and the risks incurred by wheelmen when they encroach in their riding upor the tracks of rapid transit car lines. The victim of yesterday's accident was using the space midway between the tracks and was following a car so closely that when he turned to cross the track that he thought unoccupied he was unable to see an approaching train and was struck and severely injured. Most wheelmen who ride between the rails do so because of the greater smoothness of the asphalt found there and also to avoid In a degree the ordinary traffic of the street. They are seek- ing exceptional advantages, therefore, not enjoyed by the ordinary user of the street and for this they pay in added risk. In a certain sense the space between the rails is a right of way granted by the muntcipal- ity to the street railroad company for the purposes of public convenience. The com- pany is required to keep the pavement in good repair and is “entitled, Presumably, to a certain degree of immunity from en- croachments that add to the ordinarily great risk of collision between their cars and pedestrians or vehicles. Wheelmen ap- pear in many cases to ignore these facts and to regard the street cars as public nuisances and as trespassers upon the streets, even while the bicyclists reap the benefits of the companies’ expenditures in the way of pavements. There is a marked tendency on the part of many riders to pedal their wheels close to the rails on the outside of the tracks, and this often en- dangers the lives and limbs of passengers, who are entitled to some measure of safety when alighting from the cars, but who are nevertheless frequently run down and se- verely injured by these careless bicyclists. From every point of view good sense de- mands that the riders of wheels as well as the drivers of all vehicles should give the street cars the benefit of their right of way, especially in view of the fixity of the route of the street car and the difficulty of stop- ping it suddenly. Then if the railroads would reciprocate by providing fenders which would fend, and wheel-guards which would do something else than pass over and crush their victims, these accidents would be both fewer and less disastrous. ————_~+2—____ Needs of the Navy. ‘The “war scare” over dispatches concern- irg the attitude of Spain toward the United States served at least to demonstrate three striking facts with reference to the Amer- ican navy. It was admitted at the Brook- lyn Navy Yard that enlistments were so slow as to cripple the service and to make it impossible to man the vessels now in commission. It was also pointed out that the growth of the ship list has been so rapid as to put a premium on steam engi- neering talent, and the need of legislation increasing this important corps was thor- oughly proved. The attempt to make the white squadron ready for sea at short rotice was frastrated by the lack of suffi- cient dry docks, and the naval authorities realized what a handicap would be put upon the serviceability of the American war fleets by the inability to send the ships proraptly into action with clean hulls and with all parts in first-rate repair. More men, more engineers and more docks seem to be needed more sorely than new shij ‘The navy must not be unevenly developed, for it will only be as strong and effective as the weakest component part of the whole system. —_+ +e —____ To Administer Turkey's Affairs. It is announced as probable that the Eu- ropean powers have devised a plan for the solution of the Turkish problem whick con- templates, not a partition of the Sick Man's estate after his demise, but a joint partici- pation in the administration of his affairs during the rest of his life. This ts to be accomplished by the creation of an inter- national cabinet for the Sultan, with an Englishman as Minister of Finance, a Rus- sian as Minister of War, and a Frenchman as Minister of the Interior. The Grand Vizier will remain president of the Council! of State. Theoreticaily this may be viewed as an ideal plan to preserve order in Tur- key and to prolong Turkish autonomy, and consequently the peace of Europe. Practi- cally the attempt to mix these four more or less antagonistic ingredients into a single composition will be apt to result in a series of explosions. ———++s__ There is some dispute going on among psychologists as to whether or not genius is a disease.

While not formally upon the salary list he has a great deal on his mind in the way of Cabinet and other appointments. —_ --~+ +s ____ It is to be regretted that the S. P. C. C. carnot do something in cénnection with the trouble that is being piled up for the bey-king of Spain by his injudicious guar- dians. Mr Bryan's determination to go on the lecture platform will claim the interest of Mr. Hill and a number of others who have made a similar experiment. ——_+ += —_____ Only five dozen men worked today on the city post office building, and there were no baker's dozens im the count. —_-~+ ee —____ SHOOTING STARS. Nothing Without Labor. “Have you made any progress in your drawing?” asked the artist’s friend. “Yes. I’m doing splendidly.” “Getting in touch with the modern ideas at last, are you?” “I think so. But I tell you, I've worked hard for success. You've no idea of the difficulty I had in keeping things from look- ing like what they were supposed to repre- sent.” Bills of Fare. The statesman cried, “Thanksgiving’s nigh! ‘They'll carve the festive birds. And some will eat their pumpkin pie— And some will eat their words.’ More Work. “What's this,” exclaimed General Weyler, indignantly. “Is Spain going to fight the United States, too?” “That seems to be remotely contem- plated,” said the messenger. “Well—I can’t possibly attend to it unless they give me an assistant editor and three extra stenographers.” Inconstancy. ‘This weather is a cruel thing, As soulless as a Nero. One day it smiles like gentle spring, And next it drops to zero.
