6 THE EVENING STAR. “WASHINGTON. WEDVESDAY February 2 CROSHY Ss. NOYES... THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than three times as large ns that of any other paper, mor: yening, published in Wash a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. C7In order to avoid delay: count of personal absence, 2 STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. General Lee in Havana. There may be grounds for doubt concern- ing the report that General Lee has actually sesigned his office, but there can be none s to the fact that he is very uncomfort- able in it. Nor ts this at all surprising. He is a good American, who loves and reapects his country, and naturally insists that it should be respected abroad. The ques- tion is a very pertinent one to him in his present situation. He stands for the coun- try in Cuba, and finding himself powerless in circumstances where as his country’s representative he should be powerful, he chafes under the galling realization of helplessness. It has been current rumor for several months that the administration's course toward Cuba has failed to meet with Gen- eral Lee's approval. Some of his warmest friends at home have given countenance to They have not pretended to quote him, have not divulged the confidences of per- sonal intimacy, but they have encouraged the belief that his reperts to the State De- partment have not influenced the adminis- trations policy as they should have done, and that as a result he has felt a good deal of impatience with his superiors. If this is true—and there is much to suppor: belief tn its truth—has General Lee been warranted in his tmpatlence? He was sent to Havana in exceptional circum- stances. The duties of a consul general, it was felt, ought to be supplemented by the ons of a trained soldier. Account- for the time, was not the supreme at Havana. General Lee was se- lee for the post almest wholly because he filled in a conspfeuous degree this mill- tary aspect ef the bill. His knowledge of war would make his reports home of more than everyday value. With such a man on the ground, American interests of every description on the {sland where war was waging would be safeguarded. This was the explanation that the administration’ own friends gave out, and upon which th challenged for the appointment the a proval of the country. What did this call for? The proper sup- port, of cecrse, of the new official. Every consideration of fair dealing demanded such support. He was to discharge dutles of the greatest difficulty, and, therefore, in order to succeed, would have to be sus- tained with promptness and fidelity. Has he been? Take his own confession made yesterday In Havana, in which, parrying the question of his actual resignation, he distinctly stated that he would resign un- less sustained by the administration in his demand for the proper treatment of American citizens in Cuba. Think of an American official in a foreign country hav- ing to stir up the powers at home on such @ question by such a threat! When this picked official thus complains, Mr. Cleveland's failure in his course toward Cuba is shown to be complete. ——_s6o___ The Workingmen and the Library. Tre local workingmen are among those who will be most greatly benefitted by the free public library that Congress has or- dered to be established and maintained. There are nearly 25,000 of them In the District, according to the census, employed in manufactures alone, and they are al- entirely without Hbrary facilities. They have long anticipated the opening of > municipal library, which will be avail- able at night and for the withdrawal of ting books and will thus be of im- iate practical benefit to those who compelled to labor by day and are thing forced to do their reading after working hours, if at all. Through their organiza- tiens they have indorsed the project for the creation of the free library, aia and their was of service in the fight for the pas- » of the bill which became a law at the last session. They are at the front again now that Congress is asked for a fund for the maintenance of the Itbrary and their indorsement this week, through the Central Labor Union and the Federa- tion of Labor, of the amendment to the District bill now pending In the Senate should be noted by Congress, and their action sheuld have weight in securing final approval of the appropriation. It 1s the confident expeetation that when the library is once established and is in good running order the workingmen of the District will be among its most numerous and most constant patrons. _ —_++e—_—_—_.

The purpose of this bill will be, first, te supply the government with re enue amply sufficient for its scpport, and, second, by an increase of protection here @nd there to stimulate American produc- tion in several important lines of indus- try. Many men of large experience and undoubted ability believe that many bene- Mts to the country wif flow from the new measure. They expect it to go into opera- ‘THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1997-12 PAGES, tion by mid-summer, if not sooner, and that it will shortly thereafter begin to jus- tify itself. Suppose these men prove to be right about this? Suppose the new Dingley bill meets the expectations of the party, is premptly parsed by Congress, and business urder its operations revives on every hand. How will such a change in affairs affect the silverites? Will they continue their crusade in the very face of prosperity? Will they endeavor to convince the people that it has not come to stay? That it calnot Le permanent until the mints shall be epened to the free and unlimited coinage o: silver? Wiil they exert themselves in that way to break down what is proving to be a positive benefit to the country, simply because {t is not constructed on lines of their own fashioning, and threat- ens to wreck their reputations as prophets? Not every man who shouted for silver last year will shout for silver next year if before next year business picks up and the people are again employed and pros- rerous. Popular cries change, and some- times very rapidly. What the people really desire is a return of good times. If the new revenue measure acts as it is ex- pected fo act, and the party in power en- deavors by international arrangement to promote bimetallism, the cry of the unre- lenting silverite who is against all pros- perlty not accomplished according to his rule will be both feeble and ineffective in the land. —————__ > +e ____—_ A Good Bill to Puss Now. ‘The bill now pending before Congress pro- hibiting the use within the District of fur- naces which cause the emission of dense smoke should not be allowed to die for lack of attention at this session. To be sure the time for action is now very short, but a week remaining for active legislative la- bors, but the measure is simple and direct in its provisions, involving only one prin- ciple, to which no reasonable objection can be raised. It aims at the smoke nuisance, which is as yet of comparatively small cor sequence in this city, but which thrcat- ens to grow to serious proportions if the strong arm of legislaticn is not interposed.

It has wrought itself into the ideal and actual life of the people ot Washington and vicinage. It was established with certain fixed princi- ples—they never vary. We started and still adhere to the plain, straightforward style of ad- vertising. We insisted on having ready exactly what is advertised. We always sell fresh, seasonable, up-to-date merchandise, and under no circumstances do we allow our stocks to run down or our assortments to narrow. We employ every known mercantile force to find the sources of production of reliable merchandise. We make certain that patrons get the largest selection of goods, and whatever they purchase, at the lowest cost it can be given for. We offer perfect freedom from pressure to buy store or looking at goods. We guarantee absolute satisfaction with the privilege to return what for any reason does not suit after it is at home. The store rises, the business broadens and deepens with each com- pleted year, and today is in a better position to scrve its gteat con- stituency than in any of its seventeen years. Your approval of our methods, shown in so many unmistakable ways—the greatest of which is the continued and increasing patronage— deepens the conviction that it is our duty to make the business better, We accept the duty hopefully, believing that greater success awaits us if we deserve it.
