BOND BILL Is IN

No time has been lost BY the bond bill
schemers to get their little matter before
Congress. Senator Proctor of Vermont,
has been made the medium through which
this attempt to saddle the taxpayers Of
Washington with an additional debt of
S7.500.000. or perhaps SI2, 900, has
once more received such official reccg-
milton as the Introduction of bill can give
it. No doubt 1t viii in due season make its
appearance in the House also
In view Of this prompt action Of the
bond speculatUrs, who seem toFroceed upon
the first come fl rst-served principle. 1t
behooves the people of Washington TO make
known their opinions and wishes on the
subject by means of the agencies which
The Times has placed at their disposal.
No objection has been heard against q
bond issue of reasonable amount with which
to make improvements called for by the
natural advance Of the city, but there Is
believed to be decided opposition against
burdening tho present generation with a
debt the usefulness Of which, according
to ex-Gov. Shepherd, cannot be tested until
fifty years hence.
If the taxpayers OF Washington would
forestall any snap Judgment and let Con-
gress know just how they feel in regard
TO the proposed bond issue, they can do so
by putting their ballots into The Times
boxes.

NEW CITY HALL.

A municipal building, the proper con-
struction of which would involve on ex-
penditure of about So. 800 600, is what
the Commissioners think Washington ought
to have, and they have so advised Con
grcss. asking at the same time an appro-
priation of S10o. 900 to begin work with.
They declare in their report that the build
ing which they have but recently rented
for municipal uses is not large enough 70
accommodate all the branches OF the Dis
trict government, although it is the largest
und most convenient they could find avail
able for their purpose.
Any stranger visiting the capital of the
United States that has Travelled to any
extent in this country or In Europe would
seek in vain any structure that could bear
comparison with the municipal paiaces
that adorn so many cities. The Commits
sioners in their report cite Philadelphia,
Baltimore, San Francisco, Chicago, Buf-
falo, Cincinnati and Providence as pro.
vided with city balls ranging IN cost from
one million to fourteen millions of dollars
Even Richmond, a city of less than hun
dred thousand inba bitants, has magnifi-
cent building that cost in the neigbbofhood
OF million dollars. There is nothing OF
extravagance IA the assertion that the
municipal building Of the Capital City OF

These Are Notable.

The Westminster Gazette says that Father
Kneipp treats his patients at Woerishofen
very rapidly. He sits at a long table in a
large, plainly furnished room, smoking a
huge cigar. He dictates his "prescrip-

if he were presiding at a religious cere-
moniai.

One of the stories told OF Russell Sage
is that when a thief one day dropped a
bill near him in order to draw his atten-
tion from counting some money he had
drawn at bank, Mr.. Sage put his foyt
on the bill, thanked his informant, fin
ished his count, slowed his own money Sc
curely away, and then smillngly put the
thief's bill also In his pocket.

F1REsIEN'S PAY.

The increase in the pay Of members OF
the fire department., recommended by the
Commissioners. would be no more than q
proper recognition Of faithful and arduous
services. An addition Of 10 per cent
Is suggested, which would bring the pay
approximately to the amounts paid In
other large cities There are many good
and sufficient reasons for granting the in
crease.
A firemaD's vocation LIS not only aryluoux
but full of risks. 1t is to be said to the
credit of the local department that in no
other city is there greater efficiency, as
u whole, or more dutiful devotion on the
part of the individual members The
men shirk no duty, however hazardous, and
reckon their own lives and limbs less
than those of the people in whose service
they labor. Even to save property they
do not hesitate TO expose themselves to
great danger Services OF this kind ought
to- command compensation commensurate
with their Importance, and that is just
present time
There is one consider ration, however,
that outwcighs all Others With present
salaries the nfeD cannot put penny aside
against old age or disability from acci-
de1t, or to provide something for their
families In case death should overtake
them in the discharge Of their duties. No
pension for the fireman who Is crippled
for. life at a fire, no pension for his
widow Of orphans if he Is killed. If the
salaries are increased, as recommended,
the men can, at least, spare enough every
month to contribute to 4 common fund
which, it is hoped, will be augmented from
time TO time by donations from phiIan-
thropically inclined people, and which
may yield a revenue sufficient to grant
them and theirs some comfort, If mis-
fortune or death overtakes them.
There should be no difficulty to OBJ
tain an increase that Is weIl-earned from
whatever standpoint the matter is looked
at

NARRATIVE, NOT SUGGESTION.

Whatever interest Mr.. Cleveland's mes.
sage to Congress may arouse must be of
a purely negative character. 1t will at.
tach to what he fails to say, rather than
TO what he says. more tame and general
Iy more disappointing document has rarely
been sent TO the national legislature by any
executive, least of all by Mr.. Cleveland
never lacked color and vigor OF senti-
meut and expression.
This, too. appears to be the opiuiou of
all those Senators and Representatives
whose views are published in the columns
OF The Times this moroing. They character
ize the message as a narrative OF facts; de-
void OF backbone. especially as regards the
foreign policy OF the county; lacking spirit
and showing unaccus;oned timidity, and
so on and So forth. The silver men say the
financial portion of the document is simply
a defense of another possible bond issue. and
has gold bug ring.
Net a solitary suggestion of Importance is
to be ouud in the more than fifteen thousand
words. The deficiency in the Treasury is
stated, but no opinion advanced as to how
lhe financial equilibrium ia to be re-
stored. On one or two subjects, notably the
Venezuelan question, special messages are
promised. aud that is all. Altogether it
looks as II Mr. CIeyeIand had discounted
whatever weight and influence his views
might have with Congress, and has Kept
himself as neutral toward the legislature
as he has kept tire administration with re-
gard to Cuba.

CLEVELAND AND CUBA.

With characteristic self-sufficiency Presi-
dent Cleveland in his annual message under
takes to read the people of the United States
curtain lecture upon their sympathy
with and encouragement of the Cubans, who
are struggling for freedom frnm despotic
oppression and for an independent and re-
publican government. Had he confined him.
self to the declaration that "the plain duty
of the government is to observe In good
faith the recognized obligations OF inter
national Relationship" one might have for
given the cold Indifference with which he
turns his back upon the Cuban patriots.
The President finds fault with the iudi-
vidual citizens for giving vent to their
sympathy not only jn words but In acts.
He appears to have forgotten that the cause
of liberty has always been promoted by
deeds that ran directly counter to the es-
tablished order OF things. If the people
of the United States were to content them
selves with passing resolutions instead of
contributing of their substance and In other
ways testifying their interest In the Cuban
patriots. the latter would not look so hope
fully forward to success. The meetings
that havebeen held throughout the country
have served a more practical purpose even
than impressing upon Congress the public
desire to have belligerent rights granted to
Cuba. They have opened American purses
to the insurgents treasury.
Mr.. Cleveland misstates the case when
be says the Cubans .'seem to be struggling

autonomy: they want freedom. instead OF

THE county division bill has passed
the house and goes to the senate. Sem
a'or Brown Is pledged to work for the
division bill on condition that a major
ity Of the voters petition for it. This
requirement has been fulfilled and the
people expec, Brown to redeem his
pledge. Representative Henry made a
noble fight for the bill in the house and
passed it by good majority. His ef-
forts are appreciated by those who favor
division. Without taking into consider
alton the question OF county seat remov-
al we believe that division is for the best
interests OF the taxpayers. One OF the
greatest expenses OF the county comes
from the heavy mileage fees, due to the
long distances travelled by officers and
witnesses and jurors in performing their
official duties and in attending court.
These items alone amount to over $l2 :
600 annually. There are other good
reasons for division, as shown in the ar.
ticle OF Bartlett Sinclair, published last
week. Our Rathdrum friends oppose
division on account OF the fear OF losing
the county seat. Their unanimity OF
action is com.nendable, but the facts are
against them.
