4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THE EVENING STAR has = regular permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has mo competitor. lm order to avoid delays, om ac- count of personal absence, letters to te THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. rr 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 530 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. An Important Decision. The Supreme Court havirg sustained the highway extension act in every particular, as noted in the decision handed down yes- terday, it only remains now for Congress to pass the necessary appropriations or to provide for the requisite bonds to carry the Provisions of this statute into effect. It has been long delayed !n its execution, but the great importance of the matter and the erormcus interests involved have in a large measure justified the expenditure of time. The affirmative result finally secured em- phasizes the valve of deliberation. The court's opinion leaves nothing to be de- sircd in the way of indorsement of the law. Its constitutionality is upheld, the prin- ciple of the assessment of benefits—upon which the issue mainly rested—being main- tained by the court as entirely legal and equitable. This probably ends all litigation in the premises, for there is now no appeal from the decision and the next step is execution. The cet itself places a mit upon fur-her delays. In the 18th section it provides that “in case the court shall enter judg- ™ment of condemnation in any case, and appropriation is not made by Congress for the payment of such award within the period of six nionths, Congress being in session for that time after such award or for the period of six menths after the mea:- ing of the ext session of Congress, the proceedings shall be void and the land shall revert to the owners.” It is improb- able that Congress will remain in session under the present call later than midsum- mer. It is assuredly unlikely that the houses will be at work six months hence. Therefore if nothing be done at the pres- ent session it is imperative that the requi- site action providing the neans for making payment for these lands should be had at the forthcoming session next winter, which is practically certain to last more than half a year. Thus the matter lies between these two sessions, failing which the whole precess is vold and all the work must be done again. In order to prevent such an unhappy contingency it behooves the District com- mittees of Congress, the Commissioners and the citizens to begin at once to devise Ways and means for the accomplishment of the purpose of the act. Justice Gray in his decision notes the evident intention of Congress that there should be no unnec2s- sary delays in enforcing the law, especially with regard to the highways in existing subdivisions. It therefore reverts to Coa- gress to demonstrate that the court was correct in this interpretation of its de- sires. The time that must elapse before the next session can de well spent in making in quiries as to the best and most economical methods of making payment and perform- ing the work that the act requires to be done. There are two parts to this enter- prise, the condemnation of the land and the actual laying out of the streets along the new lines. Thus the undertaking now to be accomplished 1s of great proportions and deserves the most careful considera- tion. No full estimate can be made of the advantages that will accrue to the District and ultimately to all of its residents through this decision. It means develop- ment along broad and wise lines, and with intelligent execution it practically insures that Washington will in a few years be- come beyond any possible competition the most magnificent city in the world. ee A Great News Service. ‘The Star feels that it is due to its rplen- aid system of news-gathering and news- handling to call attention in passing to the manner in which it presented che decision of the Supreme Court in the highway ex- tension case to its readers yesterday. No more important local news item has de- veloped for years, and consequcntly when the opinion was announced yesterday no ef- fort was spared to secure a pro-apt, full and accurate report. The unsurpassed fa- cliities of The Star for handling late news came into play when the last section of the matter reached the printers at ten minutes past three o'clock, and permitted the ex- clusive publication of the news in a most jcuous position on the first page, and edition was on the streets at 3:35 the o'clock. > —____ It is to be hoped that the incarceration of gentlemen of wealth and position in the District jail will not become so common as to encourage the delusion that a violation of the statutes is a good way to get into society. —~-+___ David B. Hill fs at present attracting the limited amount of attention which usually attaches to the man who has made the trip and 1s just beginning to scale the toboggan once more. : ————»+ee—___ Some European generals are conspicuous victims of the popular fallacy that {t does not make much difference how discredit- able the truth may be, if it can be kept out of the newspapers. —_>+e—_____ As to Conference, The plan of the Sugar Trust people seems to be to play the game of 1804 over again. The Senate vote, as at that time, is close nd uncertain, and as much capital as pos- sible is to be made out of the fact, both in the open debates and subsequently in con- ference. if possible, the House is to be co- erced by the declaration that the outcome must be the Senate bill or nothing. But the Situation now, in several important particu- lars, is not the situation of three years ago. The conference of the two houses over the amended Wilson bill found the House at a disadvantege on at least two points. The first point related to the amount of revenue carried by the bill as it had passed the Heuse. Subsequent examination had shown that this amount was inadequate. Some of . the estimates offered and insisted upon, Placed the figures at fifty million dollars ber annum. This was vital, and enabled the Senate, whose work it was then claiined supplied the deficiency, to stand stubbornly by its amendments. The second point related to the Presi- dent's interference. With chazacteristic aggressiveness and dogmatism, Mr. Cleve- land put in his oar while the conference was sitting, and, unfortunately for the House, took the House's side. As usual, he proved too heavy to be carried. The Senate re- sented his action, and not only insisted more stoutly than ever on its position, but put several of its members on the stand to testify that the President had been con- sulted as to most of the Senate amend- ments and had consented to them. After that, the success of the House was impossi- ble. In the present case, assuming merely for argument’s sake the passage of the bill by the Senate as amended at the Arlington hotel, the Horse in conference would be at no disadvantage. It*could not be urged there that the Dingley bill ag originally drawn would not yield enough revenue, for no such contention could be maintained. The Dingley bill proper is subject to no such criticism. Nor will the President be likely to put in an oar of any kind. Cer- tainly not in the interests of the Sugar Trust, whose interests it would be suicide for him to champion. But, strong as the House will be in con- ference, the battle should be fought and won for the people’s best interests before conference is reached. The Senate owes it to itself to reject with emphasis :hose changes in the bill which have already brought out universal condemnatfon throughout the country, and are certain to srow in disfavor the longer they are ex- amined. Amendments made in a corner are open to suspicion because of that very fact. ——____« +e Of course the general public Is sufficiently discriminating not to be influenced by the present attitude of Mr. Havemyer and Mr. Searles with reference to the desirability of Washington as a place of residence. _—_——— soo Some people fall to apprectate the hard- ship incidental to keeping Broker Chap- man’s mind occupied with judicial affairs at a time when the sugar market is a cen- ter of so much activity. — + ¢e____ It must be admitted that Mr. Hay has already shown a decided gift for dipiomacy in the way in which he envied Mr. Bayard his popularity without hoping io attain it. —_+e—___ Some day the urban legislators for the state of New York may get even by im- posing galling restrictions on the consump- tien of hard cider. ——_+ +2 —_____ In the matter of expediting business in the Senate, it looks as if Mr. Hobart were depending on Mr. Mason to play a lone hand. —————>4+e—____ There is some doubt in the minds of the Powers whether the Graeco-Turkish trou- ble is about over, or just commencing. > e+e___ The Emperor of China and the King of Greece might organize a class of two for the study of modern warfare. —> +e—_____ There were only one hundred and ninety- two men at work today on the city post office building. — e+__ SHOOTING STARS. Literally Described. “I hear that our friend recently met with Some serious reverses.” “Yes,” replied the man who wears bicycle clothes all the time. “I was with him wher it occurred. He was trying to do some fancy riding ani accidentally turned two backward somersaults.” An Occasional Oversight. Sometimes the man who seeks to win Success that’s sure to stay, Forgets to save his country, in His zeal to save his pay. A Habit Explained. “A woman,” remarked the man who would fain be facetious, “always reads the last of a story first.” “Yes,” replied Miss Cayenne, “and yet the men are so stupid as to g2 on putiing the advertisements in that same place, as if we weren't on the lookout for them all the time.”” An Average Legislature. We must do something to deserve the sala- ries we're paid, And so we call attention to the laws that we have made; But we must admit we're thankful, since you ask, That the labor of enforcing them’s the other fellow’s task. very, very Revenge. “I stood between that man and his fate long enough,” said Senator Sorghum. “And the*beauty of it is that he can’t blame me in the least.” “That olfice-sceker?” “Yes.” What has happened to him?” “I got him a place that'll tempt him to live at the rate of thre or four thousand a year more than his salary. There's some patronage connected with it, too, so that he can realize the amount ot botheration he has been causing me ever since he took a notion he wanted an appointment.” “13 to 5.” Who says de Senators is slow? Who says dey talks an’ fails ter act? Who says dem fellers doesn’t know Dere business fur a solemn fact? Cheer up, youse grand stand mourners all An’ take dis comfert to yer souls; Tink, w’en dey talk of playin’ ball, Of how we done de Orioles! Wese didn’t need no sunshine dere; Wese didn’t want no band ter play; De bleachers’ music filled de air An’ victory made de world seem gay. De umpire couldn't rob us and De century dat onward rolls Kin not reveal a sight more grand Dan de way we done de Orioles! —___+ + ——___ Honor Among Thieves, From the Philadelphia Ledger. Broker Chapman declines to apologize for refusing to answer questicns about the. operations of Senators in Sugar stock, says he acted “oun his honor,” and, therefore, thinks the President should give him an utconditional pardon, while he rather in- timates that the Senate should apologize to him for giving him so much trouble about a mere matter of “business.” Per- haps ft shoukl. It would certainly seem that his Senatorial clients, to whom he is so faithful, should do something for hira in his present awkward predicament. But it will hardly do for Mr. Chapman to base his defense solely on honor. There is honor among thieves, but the law does not acquit them on that acccunt. ——_+e—___ for Chapman Meaus Jail for Havemeyer and Searles. From the New York World. To avert their fate they are bringing to bear all the power of their millions, ali the “pull” incidental to their vast contributions to the Republican campaign fund.
