In connection with the measures for
relief in behalf of the sufferers from the
Ford theatre disaster in Washington.
the papers of that city have made a
suggestion which ought to receive the
approval of the public generally. In
consideration OF the fact that twenty
three vacancies were tragically created
in the war department as result OF
the criminal negligence OF the govern.
ment, the government owes it to the
families who were dependent solely up
on the salaries Of those who were killed
to provide for them. It is suggested,
therefore, that in filling the vacancies
preference should be given to those
who have been left in helpless condi-
tlon-the wives and daughters particu-
larly.
To do this would require suspension
Of tho civil service rules by the Presi'
dent. This is in his power and the
circumstances warrant him in taking
such action. The Washington Posi-
earnestly advocates the suggestion and
says:
at is through no fault of their own
that these people suffer, The RESPONSE
bIlIty rests with the government, and
the government certainly owes them
this humane consideration, even at the
risk of violating the awful dignity of
the eligible list"
Tho Sunday Chronicle, OF Washington,
also takes the matter up, and has this
to say:
Asa partial atonement for the negligence and
parEimony Of the government by which Fridays
tleAlhly calamity has come TO shock tho Amerl'
can people, President Cleveland should waive
tho OWL service rules and order to be appointed
70 the places made vacant In the record aud pen
sion division OF the war department the widow
OF daughter or other female survivor OF tho trns
edy. This would in part atone for the wicked
euipebility OF the government In the wholesale "a
murder BY reason Of the crumbling of the Old
ford's Theatre,
1t is not likely that, il this course is
pursued, other applicants tor office
would stand in the way OF tho appoint
ment Of those to whom the government
owes this obligation. Even the hungry
horde OF Georgia colonies would nc
doubt chivalrously stand aside and
without protest permit such an act o.
instice.

tons the spirit OF Amerlcanism. AL
though it may not DO deemed proper to
make Flag Day a national holiday,
coming, as it does, so near the Fourth
of July. the idea adopted by Philadel.
phia, where the national emblem was
born, of making it day on which the
stars aud stripes shall be displayed
from every home, suggests custom
which ought to become national.
The story of the origin of our present
flag is familiar to every school boy, and
is thus briefly told; General George
Washington, in l777 called upon Mrs.
Elizabeth Ross at her little shop in
Arch street below Third, in Philadel-
phia, which is still standing in nearly
the Same form as then, and asked her
to make a flag according to the design
furnished by him. He suggested beside
the red and white stripes thirteen ak
pointed stars, representing the original
states. Mrs. Ross suggested that tho
stars be fivo.pointed, and carried her
point by illustrating how easy it was to
make one by single cut of the scis-
sors. The flag made by her was adopt
eddy Congress on June IA"
A feature of to.day's observance in
the patriotic city OF Philadelphia will
be the decoration of tho grave Of Mrs.
Ross.
