THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1897-12 PAGES, THE EVEN SIN VG _STAR ASHINGTON. | remedy 4, 1897. - Editor. CRosBy 8. NOYE THE EVENING STAR has a regular permanent Family Circulation much more than three times as large as that of any other paper, morning or even published Washing- tom. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. 7 In order to aveid 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 Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. Open the Library at Night. Congress should not adjourn without making the slight but necessary provision for opening the Congressional Library at night and thus extending its usefulness to a degree impossible of attainment if the old heurs of ava ity should be con- tinued. The Star has already called at- tention edito! ly to the possibilities and the ities of the case, and It Is now in order again to press the imatter to official attention, this © time for its con- leration, while the appropria- bills are going through the mill. s action is ure to be taken in the end . Not because Washington asks ause it is the logical outcome of evelopment of the Congressional Li- the great national collection for e use by the people of the United nece: for elusive co In order to render accessible to the in for people the treasures dark corners of the *k of shelf room, the spacious new bu ing has been provided, furnishing ample room both for the accommodation of the now piled away present library reading public and for the convenient ar- rangement of the books to be used. It was considered unadyisable to open the library at night under the old and now ending conditions, beth because of the dan- ger that would attend the use of lights in the inflammable quarters and on account of the lack of room in the cramped space de- voted te library purposes. Now these ob- stacles are about to be overcome. The librarian realizes the eppertunity af- icrded by the coming change to incréase the value of this great collection as a refer- ence library, and his recommendations are all in behalf of night opening, for which ne will need a slightiy larger force than that provided for in the appropriation bill. All the mechanical facilities for lighting the building have been provided. The same desire to fulfil a public trust by deriving from the people’ the greatest meas- ure of usefulness ne people's welfare, erect a six million the same bedy to able way the utili- of the treasures col- building.

It is a barrier ha fil-considered work + the House or the execut It fre- quently holds important pieces of domestic or legislation which have been sent to it by the House for months before passing upon m, and some of the Presilent’s most appointments fare no better. Why then sheuld its deliberation over this highly important international matter pro- duce such wonder and objurgation? No war between the United States and Great Britain is impeading. No war is ly. This treaty does not grow out of essities of any pressing case. There no threats by elther side hehind the strument. War will not follow if the treaty shculd in the end be rejected. The view is admirable, and the senti- ch desires a contiauation of peace two great h-speaking nations is worthy of all pi But while sentiment may inspire a treaty it is not a safe guide as to its terms. Whatever g: the legislative recor] for practical S care- ar ally guardes It may be ac- epted as certain that if this ireaty, in form, is ratified, and appeals under it ever made to the court of arbitration ovided for in it, that court will sot be overned by sentiment, out strictly by the terms of the instrument as construed by rules of law oe One of the reports of the Bayard dinner Says “the de rt waa served at 1” o'clock, when th conversation of the guests became The true Briton is nothing if punctual spirit + oe doubt that the Bradiey-Martin u alified success so far are concerned. Pher soe The Old Cry of $ a renewal in several quart w of the charge that fraud is tr in the political affairs of the Ex-Gov. Altgeld and John C. Sheehan are confident that the suffrage in UPnois and New York was tampered with att ovember election. The former has been invited to make his charge good be- fore a tribunal competent to hear the cas: while the latter stands upon his prestige @s the leader of Tammany Hall—an or- ganization famous for its scrupulous po- litical methods and its profound respect for the ballot-box. And now comes Senator Butler of North Carolina and asserts that the seventeen populist members of the legislature of that state who voted for the re-election of Senator Pritchard were in- fivenced by improper means. He produces no proof, but delivers himself with great emphasis and excitement, and denounces the men he arraigns. It is strange that defeated politicians wilt resort to this sort of thing. It never serves ountry the intended purpose, but in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred operates simply to disclose the temperament of a bad loser in the game of politics. The people of this country are not open by wholesale to base proposals about anything. There are cor- rupt men in politics, as in other pursuits, and they now and then make winnings, as in other pursuits; but if It were true, as is alleged by aisappointed men seeking ex- cuses for their failures, that “anybody with a barrel of money can secure anything he wants in public affairs, the United States, instead of being the most desirable of coun- triea to live in, with people flocking to it in such numbers that a bill is now under censideration regulating the admission of immigrants, would be a plague spot from” which honest folk would be fleeing. It requires sturdy qualities to lose a hotly-contested battle gracefully. Take the North Carolina case for examination on the knowr facts. Mr. Butler stood in the fight as the leader of the populists. He spoke for them, or essayed to do so, and only the day before the balloting for sena- tor began asserted that under no circum- stances could Mr. Pritchard win. The pop- ulist support upon which the republicans were counting would not, Mr. Butler was confident, materialize. But it did mate- rialize, and it gave Mr. Pritchard the nec- essary votes to insure his election. Ought not Mr. Butler to be able to swallow his dis- comfiture, and not ask the country to be- lieve that nearly one-half of his own party’s representation in the legislature was bought out of hand like commodities over a counter? Has he really so poor an pinion of his own people? And does he Want strangers te share it with him? ——_+ e+ The Deadlccked § The breaking of the Utah senatorial dead- lock leaves but two state legislatures wrest- ling with the problem of choosing members of the upper house of Congress. In South Dakota it is a plain case of the dominant party being unable to agree upon a can- didate. The populists have 62 votes in joint ballet to 56 controlled by the republi- cans, but those 62 votes are split up among three men, and the combined votes of all three would alone bring about a result. But there are signs of disintegration in the blockade and an election is looked for daily. The situation in Oregon is more awkward and may lead to a very complicated case. The senate refuses to recognize the organi- zation of the house and a contest before ates. the national Senate later is among the possibiliti It is interesting to note that in Utah, as in Idaho, a republican cast the deciding ballot. In Idaho this republican was the only one of his party in the legis- lature, and in Utah the bafance of power on the last ballot was held by one of the squad of four republican legislators. ————_ ++ —__ Another Object Lesson.
