THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that ofany ether paper in the city. As = lecal NEWS paper and Ad- Yertising Medium it has ne competitor. By no means the least interesting of the dis- coveries made in connection with the prepara- tions for enforcing the South Carolina liquor Jaw is that which touches upon theadulteration of intoxicating liquors. On this point Gov. Tillman—s most persistent investigator—is emphatic in his declaration that such things as pure spirits, wine or beer were unknown within the limits of the state and would not be dispensed there until the state took up the business of running the saloons, some- thing it will do on and after July 1. ‘There is nothing astounding in the governor's allega- tion nor does the evidence he lays bare ap- proach to the dignity of a discovery. Health Officers have in almost every civilized center of population scrutinized the food supplies and paid particular attention to the non-in- toxicating varieties of liquid nourishment, but the more or less fiery concoctions which many people imbibe for cooling in the summer time or ewal- low as aids to increased caloric in the wintry season may be immediately dangerous even to the pickled toper and yet escape official in- spection. It has been argued by those who re- fuse to recognize the right of any one to do as he or she pleases, even within the limits of the law, that it really makes no difference to sober society how vile or how poisonous intoxicants may be, that purity in strong drink is merely a relative something which is of but little real im- portance, but asa matter of fact it isof inter- est to every lover of health and longevity. If disease is fostered by the comparatively harm- less adulterants thatare to be found in com- mon food why may not similar results attend closely upon the unwitting con- sumption of the mary nauseating and deleterious compounds that are freely poured into the bow! in which weak mankind endeavors | to drown its sorrows? The far-reaching conse- | quences of improper admixtures must be con- ceded br anyone at all conversant with the ‘vast quantities of momentary exhilaration con- sumed annually within the United States, and although those who drink of it are not moved thereto by necessity they are nevertheless en- titled to a proper degree of protection. The public interest demands that whatever intox- jeants are sold shall beas pare and as nearly healthful as such decoctions ean possibly be. ee Not unnaturally and yet oftentimes without reason, the people of Chicago have taken ex- ception to criticisms which have their origin in some of the unfortunate conditions unexpect- edly called into existence by exigencies easily consequent upon the upbuilding and manage- ment of the greatest industrial exposition this world ever knew. Of course, there has beon tart comment and at times the repartee became | decidedly too personal, but such friction was the legitimate outcome of the competitive methods adopted by Chicago, New York aud St. Louis when they were engaged in buttonboling and browbeating Congressmen who had not quite made up their minds as to whore the fair should be located. It may be, end probably is, that some of the New York and St. Louis criticisms were inepired by malice, but outside of those cities there has been no disposition to be un- kind or unfair, and it is believed that now such @ disposition nowhere exists. There is almost universal recognition of the fact that Chicago is engaged, heart and soul, in laboring to make the Columbian exposition more success- ful than any similar enterprise has been. and millions of Americans and Europeans are going to do what they ean to make such a desirabie consummation a Pleasing reality. All good Americans desire to see the great fair successful in every respect, and believe that it can hardly fail in any ma- terial point. And that it may not it is the duty of all Americans ina kindly manner to point out and endeavor to correct any serious weak- ness which may threaten to retard the most stupendous enterprise of modern times. Chi- ago is great, but it has not reached inerrancy. oe Good citizens of the United States who are acquainted with Mr. W. E. Quinby, editor and proprietor*of the Detroit Free Press, will not thank President Cleveland for sending him as minister to the Netherlands. There are but few such geniai men in the country as the newly appointed diplomat, and when the chief executive deliberately exiles him he brings sorrow toa large number of American hearts. But there should be great joy in Holland. ——__ +s Formerly the difficulty that the authorities had in matters of crime was the capture of the wrong doer. Volumes of detective stories have been inspired by this single feature of police duty. But times have changed, and the cap- ture of the criminal is not the chief point of interest. It is a comparatively easy mat! get acriminal in custody. Keeping hi is what bothers. —_—_+ee—____ From Rowan county, North Carolina, comes @ thrilling narrative in which a muscular agriculturist, a hollow tree and two hundred and sixteen snakes are the principal features. With such an example before their eyes it is no wonder that the greater proportion of South Carolinians favor state control of the liquor traffic. es There promises to be war in one section of Kentucky because the tax collector insists on collecting taxes. Where will be found the Ken- tuckian who eannot find an exeuse for getting into a fight? ——_+es____ If the French government succeeds in col- lecting all the fines imposed in connection with the Panama canal seandal it will have almost enough money to complete the scandal-breed- ing interoceanic ditch. —+oo—__ Apxious to secure “rapid transit” and tem- porarily deluded by specious advocacy of the “cheap and nasty” system of street car propul- sion, 2 great many communities in the United States opened wisle their municipal arms to re- cere the « For years they had jogged along behind the fraved-out horse or the more deliberate mule and there was pleasant relief in the mand iu the absence of | animal effort. But the dseam was soon broken | by a rude awakening, while the roseate hues paled into the ghastly whiteness of death. ‘Lives were lost because the system was fault: people who survived the shocks that reach them through crossed wires were scared into Premature disability, the occasional smashing of s minor piece of mechanism disabled the entire road and discommoded ths public, and hundreds of thousands of dollars went Up in flame and smoke because the overhead obstructions of the trolley method interfered with the workings of fire departments. The necessity for something Letter in the way of an wectric motor impressed itself upon many minds and there was fecble demand for im- provement. from the vast Hey. speedy t forth no response nount of capital interested in doctrine, and when an y bobbed above the ce with what seemed to be a good idea he was disposed of, often by the application | . But there were some veither be bought nor oiled away on storage bat- bulldo meitions and have storaze batteries are | line to expensively | bat eucee a ‘The still over-heavy speedy wene and tea the eubterra-| mean idea is very close to perfection. | Disewssing the latter style the New York Times | says that Congress “‘w: ot permit the over- | head trolley m to be used in Washington, | and beeanse of this probibition there may now | be seen in operation in that city an under- ground trolley line which deserves the atten- tion of the authorities in other cities where the poles and overhead wires have been set up or where permission to set them up has been sought upon the plea that there is no other practicable method of applying electric motive power to the cars of a surface road. The company which uses this underground sys- tem within the city limits moves its cars on that portion of its line which lies beyond the boundary by the overhead trolley, because the first cost of the overhead plant is Jess than that of such an underground plant as the company has put in, but it is reported that 30 per cent more power is obtained by the use of the subterranean wires and that the cost of operation is less by 30 per cent than in the case of the overhead system.” This statement is conservative and will bear investigation. Watchful as to the advance of electrical science Tux Star some time ago declared that the day of the overhead trolley was rapidly drawing to close, Its conclusions have been combated most fiercely and by none with greater vigor than by the journals devoted to electricity, but the public temper bas at last become apparent even to those organs of the trade which found the overhead trolley such a source of profit, and now the Electrical Engineer says: “Our own faith in the ultimate success of other means than the trolley is stronger than ever, and we are glad to note that the magni- tude of the prize still tempts adventurous capi- tal. The later attempts have certainly gone nearer the goal than any that preceded them, and every month sees an advance. A few weeks ago we described some excellent storage battery trips in this city. Last week we described a Yery promising conduit road in Washington, and this week Mr. Shaw describes a conduit road he has just inspected at Hartford. Evi- dently there is abundant effort to drop the trolley in the conduit slot. Altogether, there- fore, the time is near when the publi for rapid transit, but in dire fear of the ‘deadly trolley,” will be able to get the full benefit of something better than it has hitherto enjoyed.” ee Surely the world’s fair management has trouble enough on its hands without stirring up the foreign exhibitors by indifference as to the manner in which exhibits are to be judged. More thar a year ago several of the European commissioners who were preparing to con- tribute some of the most valuable and inter- esting features of the fair wrote to Chicago and in other ways endeavored to find out how the juries on awards would be constituted. The replies received were unsatisfactory and so were others written more recently, and yester- day, patience having ceased to be a virtue, the commissioners representing Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Siam, Sweden and Switzerland, joined in a communication to Director General Davis that announced the withdrawal of their exhibits from any competition for awards. If that ac- tion is persisted in the fair will be seriously embarrassed and its influence minimized in the countries named. Late as it is, though, it is not too late to appoint such an international jury as would be satisfactory to the exhibitors, but there is no time to waste. —— +e Glass-blowers in New Jersey went out be- cause employers refused to provide them with ice water.
