Just now there seems to be demand for
the formulation and publication of an ad-
ministrative policy in the matter of morals
An appointee in the consular service-an
official of high rank-wno was about to
depart for his post has been called back 10
this city from San Francisco to explain
to the Secretary of State why he should
have tried to eyade the payment of a tall
or's bill. Critically-inclined people may try
to say sarcastic things about Secretary
Gresham because of his action in the in
teTest of what old-fashioned folk insist on
regarding as the commonest sort of hon.
esty, but the Secretary is right. The ad-
ministration consists of many units and IL
any of the particles are off-color or odorous
they cannot but affect the whole body and
make it more or less discreditable In the
Treasury Department case has also de-
veloped TO which an attempt has been made
to apply the principles of an admnistra-
ton code of morals. An unmarried fema L.
clerk is alleged to have alienated the affec-
tons of a married man and to have per-
sisted in her association with him to such
an extent that he has deserted his wife and
family. Secretary Gresham has done the
right thing and it is quite probable that
Secretary Carlisle will do likewise; and
from their action fair idea of the admin
istrative policy in the matter of morals ma .
doubtless be gained.

1.-The vanishing Justice" With a bang from

who was booked to wear the robes of the
late Justice Blatchford, was propelled
through the trap that leads into the Vastly

While II IS true that Congress, after much
delay. did that for which it was called into
session, 1t is also true that very many legis-
valuable opportunities were not taken ad-
vantage of. Among the important things
that, for some unexplained reason, were left
untouched was the proposition to proceed
Immediately to the purchase of a site and
the erection of a building in which to sheI-
ter those who do the governments printing
and binding. Today. as every welI-iuformed
Congressman knows, nearly three thousand
men and women so employed are kept by
this great and abundantly rich government
In a structure that Is too dangerous for
human occupation. Again and again has
Congressional attention been directed to the
cCrdition of the ancient and lettering
building at H and North Capitol streets but
1t seems as though the voice of humanity
Is too weak to reach the Congressional ear,
Tor beyond wrangling over sites Congress
mas done practically nothing. 1t was sup
posed that with the horrible disaster at the
Old FoFd's TheateP before it's eyes the ma
oonal legislature would hasten to remove
the possibility of greater horror But the
faces of the dead do not haunt the Con-
sressional vision nor do the groans of the
wounded disturb the Congressional con-
science That there may be neither collapse
nor conhagration in the frequently con-
demned printing office is the prayer of every
humane man and woman. but it's further
occupation is simply a tempting of Proyi-
dence.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1893-11-04

Out of all the discussion. that has wearied
the popular ear since Congress was called
into extraordinary session three months ago
some good must surely come; some great
truths must have been made plain; some
ignorance dispelled. Secretary Morton un-
doubtedly voiced the sentiment of the more
responsible people OF the United States
when he. in an interview published in yes
terday's Star said he hoped that as 4 result
of the long Congressional debate there would
be a weakening of the paternalistic idea
and that men would no longer seriously
gard the government as a house OF refuge.
In a country like. this said The Secretary,
where the entity called government is
composed of the individuals who are citi-
zens of the country. it is about as sensible
for them to look upon their own government
as father to them as for son 70 erdeavor
to establish by legal evidence hat be is his
own father" That puts the case so plainly
that not even the populist-odd as his men
tai organization is-can misunderstood it.
The government has its uses and its duties;
it is powerful so long as it is honestly ard
sanely conducted. but as the agricultural
member of the cabinet remarked, it Can
not stamp a piece of metal that is worth
sixty-eight cents and by that act make It
worth one dollar" The Secretary needed
not to defend his opposition 10 The free
coinage of silver, but as his defense was of
the easily understood and aggressive var
iety its publication may result in good.
III" said he, Il have twenty dollar geld
piece, and in some way the stamp of the
government becomes obliterated 1 can get
twenty dollars for it's bullion. But If twenty
silver dollars were crushed out of all re-
senblance to money under the weight of q
railroad engine, for example, -he mass Of
metal would be worth to me about half
what it was before the accident occurred.
Before free coinage is established there
must be more of a parity between The bull
ion and the coin value of silver ind all
the sophistries that can be evolved in Color
ado and Kansas must, so long as the Ira-
jorlty Of Americans are sane, 'ail to upset
even one end Of that argument.

The substantial character of real estate
Investments in this city has been evidenced
beyond question by their condition through
out the past few months, when almost
every other form of investment suffered
more or less depreciation. At no time have
real estate values been other than remark
ably firm and while that condition may be
due to some extent to the fact that prop
erty has not been forced on the market
1t is. still certain that Understanding
money has nowhere a more secure field
for operation than can be found at the ma
tiorlal capital A few of the men who have
dipped over-deeply in speculative ventures
have felt the stringency of the times, but
even they, as a rule, have been able to
pull through Property has not been nor

Loans on good security are not at all

great confidence in the steadfast value of

Tered from extraordinary number of
forced sales, but in this city they are no
more common now than they were when
business conditions throughout the country
were more nearly normal Quite naturally
the demand for oppo; tunities for invest
ment are comparatively few, but a slug
gish market at this season OF the. year is
to be expected and is being experienced in
all branches Of business. As financial con-
ndence returns to the great commercial
centers Of the country notwithstanding
capital will once more emerge from its hid

renewed confidence in the solidity of Dis

but natural. for the capitalists will be at

subjected since last spring. The present
situation in this city is many per cent bet

the future is extremely bright
