Are zat ion ‘omp! A member of Philadelphia's select council in the course of the debate upon unicipal stion, mentioned the antagonism originally manifested by the people of Philadelphia to the introduction of the trolley cars and said: “The people by protested against the trolley, were threatened with political estracism e voted in their favor. But we did so v nd now the people would not be without the trolley cars.” This in- genious argument deserv some attention. The people of Philadelphia were wise when gainst the trol- were ignored, rable contrivance that serves we the city ch an extent that the streets are now given over almost without reserve to the overhead-fed motors. The people would not be without them today, to be sure, 4 they cannot get rid of them. I: is folly to urge that the trolleys are pop- use ular because they are troll They a pepular, perhaps, because they are than were the horse cars that the; Planted, but they are not as popular would be the underground electric cars such as ure in use in this city. The com- placency of the Philadelph s only com- Parative, and it is futile for iends of colors of great and unreserved joy over i ssion of the wretched excuse for rapid at the overhead system furnishes, le of Washington not only pro- t the introduction, but per- their protest, and, being free from the political ring that now grips Philadel- phia tighter than a, they suc- cceded in the creation of barriers against the encroachments of the trolley. They feared the invasion of the very corporation that now controls practically all of the Philadelphia street railways, and the fear lest this syndica might creep in with cheap overhead constructions is not yet wholly allayed. The consequence of this fight is that today Washington's traction equipment, present and immediately pros- pective, is far superior to that of Philadel- phia in point of comfort, reliability, public security, neatness of appearan eral attractiven isfaction which the Washingtonians review the fruits of their long fight is of a wholly differ- €nt nature from that with which the Phil- phians, according to the member of the ecunetl quoted, are today compelled to re- Bard their present state.

Abell soe Spaniards Residing in Cuba. The Star's news from Matanzas touching the attitude of the resident Spaniards in Cuba toward the complications in the is- land ts of special in following as it does a recent sugkestion that after a short time Spain will probably leave her case tn their hands. Not all the men in the field la Spain's behalf are levees from Spain. The Spanish residents in the island nave furnished auite a number. Dues Spain really belleve that the day !s approaching when she can withdraw her home levces and trust all to the hands of the Spanish residents of Cuba? If Spain enters upon that course it will merely be a form of surrender, adopted to meet and parry & certain pride at home. Her retreat from the mainland here many years ago was accomplished after that fashion. She was very reluctant to avan- don her pretensions. Even after withdraw- img her armies to the south of us she held out to her population at home the hope of @ reassertion of her authority. It was Rot until twenty-six ycars after the inde- pendence of Venezuela had been achteved that Spain recognized it. But, all the same, there, as elsewhere, Spanish authority died the day the Spanish arms were withdrawn. Nething remained to support Spain's cause after Spain's bayonets disappeared. ‘the | | | ove ) Rot hesitate a day. | United States at the start. j ish rule | interests besides those of of those countries, native and set at once about organizing ments of their cwn, and, naturally enough, took for model the government of the United States. ish authority, cannot be maintai. it is plain enough, ed in any part of Cuba by force of arms, and the Spanish residents, if left alone, would possess neither the will nor the power to meet the situation.

The paymaster general of the army states that great inconvenieace arises annually from the practice of Congress in making the appropriations for the military service without suffi regard for the estimates mitted. it appears that other the District of Columbia suffer in this respect. The esti- mates submitted to Congress are supposed sent the exact needs of the various of the government for which the ended, and to this extent the theory of the British budgets is followed. But the is far different from that which in parliament, where the legisla- cept the estimates of the govern- s they stand, or reject them as a The latter action, of course, re- a mi rial crisis and precipitates se similar in effect to that which here once in four years. But the stem certain advantages that lowly recognized in this country, © such experiences as those t and the army come to be scrutinized closely. In the other system the responsibility for the estimating is placed squarely upon the administrative agents of the government, who are countable to the people. In this country the estimates are submitted by the indi- vidual chiefs of bureaus and smaller sub- divisions through the heads of the depart- trents, who assume the final responsivil- ity to Congress. But that responsibility is weakened by virtue of the action of the two houses of Congress, which invariably revise the estimates from beginning to end and thus upset the calculations of the Iministrative officials, who have graduaily ablished the custom of basing their estimates upon certain marginal caleula- tions that serve to act as an elastic ete- safety. Congress in turn comes the appropriations upon an un- derstanding of this margin of shrinkage and thus its value to the executive depart- ments is lost. The army seems to have suffered more in this respect than any other branch of the government, for the ations for its needs have on sev- occasions fallen short of the act:1al demands. On one occasion Secretary La- mont advanced from his private purse a sufficient sum to pay the army for a period for which the appropriation was deficient, being afterward reimbursed by Congres This is not 2 wholesome or a pleasing sp: tacie, when the size and resources of the nation are considered. The question nat- arises: Is there no way of either re-establishing confidence between the ex- ecutive and legislative branches in the watter of friming the annual supply bills, or of changing the .method of enacting those bills co as to place the responsibility closer to the original source of the esti- mates? tiene ec; Thus to repr whole. sults in a cha eceur: Bri of the Distri ae- ———_+ = ___ No More “Misunderstandings.” The Commissioners and Receiver Schoepf have agreed upon the style of air motor that Las been approved by the officials and is to be installed on the Eckington and Belt lines. A formal permit for the equip- tent on that basis has been issued and nothing now remains but the step that shall demonstrate whether the receiver is in earnest or is temporizing. Any further quibbling over proposed pipe lines that wiil celay the actual beginnings of the installa- tion of the compressed air service can not now be termed a “misunderstanding” as certain previous differences between the public and the corporation authorities dur- ing Une negotiations for the introduction of repid transit methods on these lines have been miscalled. a Mr. Salisbury may yet give this coun- try’s editors an opportunity to reprint some of the London comments concerning Secretary Sherman, with a transposition of names. ———\e2____ It would be a reversal of the usual pro- gram if Ohio should make up its mind to give an office to a man so closely identified with the District of Columbia as Mr. Mc- Lean. ———+-e2____ If General Weyler should go over to the ‘atlists it will be possible for some of the yee and Spanish newspapers to agree at last on an opinion of him. +e —_____ The Chicago sausage business will be eral weeks in getting in step with the revival of prosperity. ———__ + es ____ Mv.

Street Car Collisions. A correspondent whose letter was printed yesterday in The Star complained of a collision that occurred the other night be- tween a G street horse car and a 9th street motor train. There is no confusien about the legal responsibilities at such crossings to account for such accidents, for the regu- lations now im force provide that at all places where rapid transit tracks cross those of herse car lMnes the cars of the former shall have the right of way at all times. Drivers who undertake to cut across the path of electric or cable cars do so at their own risk. The regulation is proper and ought to be given force, yet it is common observation that the horse cars undertake to cross ahead of the more rapid conveyances, which are capable of in- flicting heavy damage. One effect of the regulation is, or should be, to discourage the continued maintenance of horse car Hines within the cits. The have demonstrated their intention to en- sure public safety at street car crossings se by adopting a general regulation that em- powers them to require flagmen to be sta“ tioned where rapid transit tracks intersect whenever they may deem such equipment necessary, but thus far they have not availed themselves of the authority. The crippling of the avenue and 14th street lines removed much of the present neces sity for the enforcement of the new rule, but dangerous crossings still exist that shculd be promptly provided with flagmen paid by the companies owning the tracks. It is to be hoped that when the Capital Traction Company resumes rapid transit operations on these two branches the Com- missioners will insist upon the stationing of flagmen at all crossings, regardless of the theories that may prevail concerning the efficiency of the signal system that has been so confidently vaunted by at least one of the companies, —_—_ + om if Mr. Luetgert should escape and desire. to marry again it would be prudent of him to devote himself to the young woman who figures on the amusement program as the boneless wonder. ————— »++e—____ It is safe to say that Mr. Reed's refusal to mingle in the New York campaign is not due to the fact that he has nothing on his mind that would interest an audience. —————~>+e—____ The Baltimore Sun continues to regard Mr. Gorman with much the same feelings as arise when somebody tries to work off a plugged coin in the business office. —_—~o+o—___ It is probable that the professional rall- way projector will do what he can to enable people to get rid of thrir Klondike gold without leaving the place. ——~>+e—___ As Evangelina “retires left’ Adolph ‘“‘en- ters right"—Cuba gives way to Chicago. ———»+--—___.

He won't even sit anywhere except in section 1.” Injustice. “I always believe in giving the devil his dues,” said the young man who affects odd methods of thought. $y replied his tailor, “but 1 don’t think you have any business discriminating against your other creditors in his favor.” “Dem autumn woods,” said Uncle iben, “kinder "ninds me ob folks.

I have a great deal to be thankful for. I have been told that away up north the nights are six months long.

From the Chattanooga Times. Of course Tennessee would not give up a strip 12x56 miles, to Georgia, with this Prospersus city and other rich things in- ciuded ia the strip.
