As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal abnence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to vidual connected with the office, ply to THE STAR, or to the Editortal or mess Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. ee THE STAR BY MAIL. Persons leaving the city for any period can have The Star mailed to them to any address in the United States or Canada, by ordering it at this office, in person or by letter. Terms: 13 cents per week; 25 cents for two weeks, or 50 cents per month. Invariably in advance. Sub- scribers changing their address from one Post-office to another should give the last address as well as the new one. =—— The Commissioners’ Opportunities. An unusual prospect of opportunities ‘opens up before the new board of District Commissioners, just organized. There is a great accumulation of pressing needs, edused by the Congressional policy of let- ting various projects go by, session after session, with the promise of taking them up in comprehensive fashion “in the future.” It may be useful to note briefly some of these lines of development and improve- ment on which Commissioners Wight, Ross and Black will be called upon to act during their term of office now beginning. One of these is the selection of some plan for the abolition of the grade crossings. The sub- ‘ject will never be easier of solution than “during the next three years and it is in better shape for action than ever before. The present Commissioners will probably have in charge the consummation of the street extension plans, for it is altogether likely that the question of constitutionality will soon be settled and the necessary ap- propriations will be made for carrying the highway act into effect. Of equal impor- tance is the question of providing a general system of sewerage for the city, which is now suffering from inadequate outlets for its wastes. The public health is to be pro- tected in other ways, notably through the reclamation of the Anacostia flats, and the Commissioners will doubtless have many epportunities to bring the item favorably to the attention of Congress. In the same line is the matter of garbage disposal, which Is at present im a most unsat‘sfactory shape and which must soon be regulated and placed on a better footing. The public lighting is also on a practically temporary basis, with the great question of the estab- Hshment of a permanent system of sub- ways and conduits mvolved and demanding early attention. One of the most pressing matters is that of the street sweeping con- tract which will soon be signed for a Feriod beginning with July 1 next. Bids have been invited for two, three and five- year terms, and it will rest with the Com- missioners whether they bind themselves to @ long or a short contract. This 1s impor- tant, as has been recently pointed out, in view of the fact that there is now pending before Congress a bill which permits the Commissioners to have municipal works of this character done by day labor instead of by contract, and it is highly probable that this measure will become law within a few months at most. The sidewalks of the city are still, in a large degree, a disgrace to the nation’s capital, and it is one of the hopes entertained by the public that the Commissioners will be able to secure ap- Propriations large enough for the displace- ment of all the remaining brick atrocities with some more modern form of walks. It is not too much to expect that a start may be made on the long-delayed municipal building, and if the Ccmmissioners can succeed in convincing Congress that the time has arrived for legislation to this end they will have earned hearty pubiic appre- elation. It is to be seen that the list is long and that the opportunities for results, as well as for hard work, are plentiful. The board is so constituted as to warrant the belief that the record of its performances, when made up at the end of the term, wiil be one of the most satisfactory ever known. ————++e—___ The Extension of Sixteenth Street. It is to be hoped that regardiess of the fate of the street extension act, the legal- ity of which is now pending before the Supreme Court of the United States, the opening up or extension of Sixteenth street will receive the early attention of the Commissioners of the District of Colum- bia. This street dces not seem to be de- Pendent upon the entire scheme as its lo- cation is, to a great extent, fixed. Much money has zlready teen expended in removing the natural obstruction that ex- isted by Meridian Hill at the boundary of Rock Creek Park for a distance of sev- eral miles and a proposition has been made by owners of territory through which this street will be established, to donate land for the purpose, provided the government Will open, grade and otherwise improve the seme from Mt. Pleasant to the District line. The government owning all the territory “pn the west side of the street and within the limits of Rock Creek Park will be greatly bene‘ited thereby, and the park will be, to a great extent, made available and some opportunity given to the people of the District to enjoy it. This privilege ought to have been afforded long ago in view of the cost thereof, te., one million, two hundred thousand dollars. Since the park was purchased it has been locked to the pubiic by the key of inaccessibility, and ‘ts extraordinary beauties hidden from the public in whose behalf it has been established. Another very important reason for the immediate extension of said street to the District line exists because of the actual for additional means of access ess to and from the city, as all travel for business and pleasure is, prac- Ucally speaking, confined to two thorough- fares, Fourteenth and Seventh streets, and they are ercumbered by street railways. Therefore it is to be hoped that the Dis- trict Commissioners will, in their next re- @ for appropriations, urgently advance these various considerations which shou!d encourage Congress to direct that this street shall be opened and regulated for travel not only in behalf of the interests of the people of the District as herein State], but for the improvement of prop- erty, the title to which is vested in the United States. — With so mary additional places resulting from annexaticn it would be strange if Tammeny should fail to put forth all the vitality which it can command. Projected Foreign Trip. ‘The recent publication in The Star of a report that Mr. Bryan contemplates a tour through Mexico and then a visit to Europe has called forth expressions both of ap- Prova! and disapproval of the plan. Those who approve of {t are certain that both Mr. Bryan and his cause would benefit, while those who disapprove of it think he Would do better to stay at home and con- tinue to study and present the silver ques- tion solely from the American standpoint. The latter opinion would appear to have little if anything to support it. Mr. Bryan is a very young man and the leader of a very important movement. He has, it is true, raised the standard of an independ- ent financial policy for the United States, and still holds to it despite the defeat of last year. He is expecting to make another campaign for the presidency under that standard. But this should not deter him from examining the question as fully and carefully as possible from other points of view. There are, as he knows and recog- nizes, other points of view. The opposition he confronted last year, and will confront in 1900 if he runs for the presidency again, insists that the financial question is world- wide in scove and importance; that the United States cannot afford to have at this advanced day, in its extended and exten- ing trade relations, a financial policy in antagonism to that of the other leading nations of the world. Moreover, that oppo- sition is just sending abroad a commission friendly to silver to study the financial question, and if possible to move in the Premises on lines inviting world-wide ac- tion. Mr. Bryan should by all means make the Projected trip. If he is right in his con- tention, nothing to be gathered abroad on the subject will shake hi8 faith in it, and he will return home better prepared to do battle for it than ever. If he is wrong in it; if travel will enlarge Mr. Bryan’s view about that, as it frequently does the view of bright men about many things, then he will be set right; and while the extreme silver cause will lose a champion, a far greater cause—the cause of truth and the general good—will gain an adherent. Besides, the silver audientes in next year’s campaign, and in that of 1900 if silver as an issue shall last that long, will be entitled to some variations on the silver theme. They have heard it fully discussed from the national point of view, and will benefit by something from their own ora- tors from the international point of view. Confining the discussion to the former view is too much like giving them only fifty cents’ worth—the value of a silver dollar reckoned from the effect of an inaugura- tion of their own financial policy.

From the Lewiyton (Sfe.) Journal. _ In surrendering income from foreign im- portations the committee has naturally turned not only to further taxation of do- mestic products, but also to a tax on ar- ticles ike tea, which are not produced in this country to any great extent, and hence to the British tarlff idea rather than to the American economic idea. It is probably vafe to assume that no revenue tariff on tea will be emboaied in the bill as finally |. The delay of the bill in the Senate, of course, wiil prolong the deficit and make the income from the new tariff law for the next year far below what it would be if it had been promptly enacted along protection lines. ——> 6 —__—__ Fire-Eating Japs.
