THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
Mr.. Cleveland Sends a Special Mes
sage to Congress on the
Subject.

WASHINGTON, January 2S.-The President today
sent to Congress the following special message on
the financial question;
To THE SENATE AND House OF REPRESENTATIVES:
In my last annual message l commended 10 the
serious consideration of the Congress the condition
of our national finances, and in connection with
the subject endorsed the plan OF currency legiSla-
ton which at that time seemed 10 furnish protcc-
ton against impendi. danger This plan has not
been approved by the Congress. In the meantime
the situation has 50 changed. ana the emergency
now appears 50 threatening. that deem it my
duty to ask the hands of the legislative branch of
the government such prompt and efficient action as
win restore confidence in our financial SOundncS>
and avert business disaster and universal distress
among our people. Whatever may be the merits of
the plan outlined in my annual message asa remedy
for the ills then existing and safeguard against
the depletion Of the gold reserve then in the Treas
ury. ! am now convinced that its reception by the
Congress and our present advanced stage of inan-
cial perplcxity necesstaeS additional or different
legislation.
With natural resources unlimited in variety and
productive strength and with people whose ac-
tivity and enterprise seek only airopP0rtunity 70
achieve national success and greatness our progress
should not be checked 10y false financial policy
and a needless disregard OF sound monetary laws
nor should the timiiity and fear which they
cngendered stand in the way of our prosperity.
It is hardly disputed that this pre,licdment con-
fronts Us today. Therefore no one IN any degree
responsible for the making and execution OF our
laws should fail 10 patriotic duty in honestly
and sincerely attempting TO relieve the situation
Manifcstly this effort win not succeed unless i is
made untrammelel by the prejudice OF IartisauShip
and with Steadiast determination !" resist the
temptation To accomplish INr1y advantage. We
may well remember that if We are threatened with
financial difficulties all our people in every station
OF life are concerned. and surely thuse who suffer
viii nos receive the promotion of party Interests as
an excuse Tor permitting our present troubles 10
advance "a disastrous conclusion. ltiSol>1 81 the
utmost importance that we approach the study OF
the problems presented us free possible FROM the
tyranny Of precoucrived opinions Jo the end THAT
in q common danger we may D. able Go seek with
uuclouded vision 81 fc and reasonable protection

summa rizing abstracts. Secretary Lamont
with the true conception of newspaper
man for what constitutes a readable docu-
ment, has but exercised his legitimate priv
ilege, and has doubtless saved many dollars
and much library space by reducing the
bulk of his subordinates' essays. Perhaps 1t
is true, as some of his critics suggest, that
he has suppressed important recommends
tons. but majority of these ideas are re-
iterations, and in but few cases are they
practicable. The Secretary is the one to
whom Congress looks for suggestions for the
improvement OF the military service. and not
the small bureau officers whose reports are
only intended to guide the chief in his an
nual presentation.
Secretary Herbert too, has come to the
same conclusion, and while he has not been
as free with the blue pencil, it is said, as
his colleague, he has inaugurated excellent
reform by requesting all his chiefs to refrain
from writing about matters that do not con-
stitute a record of the years progress and
action, which is the true and proper func-
ton of a report of this character. Recon-
mendations and suggestions, he declares,
should take the form of special letters, thus
ensuring to the bureau chief that modicum
of popular credit that is undoubtedly his
due. and that was presumably the main in
SEPARATION of majority of the printed pages
of the past.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1895-11-05

Army officers are represented in some
quarters as protesting against the action of
Secretary Lamont in editing the annual re-
ports submitted to him by bureau chiefs and
others whose yearly routine of duty includes
no more important function than the sub
mission of these dreary documents. The
casual reader of governmental literature has
long ago concluded that the annual products
Of the press are largely superfuous, and
there has more than once been a plea heard
for less verbosity, fewer recommenda-
tions,'' more condensation and more editing.
Indeed, The Star has in times past urged
the appointment of a government editor,
whose duty it should be to reduce the trc-
mendous volume of printed matter that is
ground out year after year to mould and
gather dust on neglected shelves and to be
finally sold as junk. and, perchance, trans
formed into wall paper or paste-board boxes.
1t IS probably true that not one annual re-
port out of twenty from a less source than
the head of a department is ever read in
print after the. newspapers have given their

Ex-Gov. shepherd.. Reception.

There will undoubtedly be a great out
pouring of people Thursday night on the
occasion Of the public reception to ex
city from Europe. The plans for this event
ale we'll advanced ard the preparations are
progressing iE way that shows the
hearty spirit of welcome felt by those in
charge. Washingtcnians of today have
every reason to feel grateful to the man
present comfort and for the beauty and
material welfare of the capital, and this Is
the first opportunity for many years for
them to express themselves. The visit paid
by Mr.. Shepherd in July was brief that
the citizens had no chance to do more than
but the appropriateness of a public well
come was then suggested and became at
once apparent. The board of trade is the
proper medium for showing this courtesy
to the man who of all the world has done
the most to make the national capital a
majority of the business men who know
from actual observation and experience the
great value of the work performed by him.
The later conner sees the results of this
labor, performed amid the greatest obsta-
Giles and under the fire of the bitterest crit
the future welfare of the city whose mag
nficence and whose prospects today make
a memorial that will last forever.

Bright Hope. for Alexandria County.

In response to the appeal of Washington
and of the law-abiding citizens of Alex
andria county Virginia has now interviewed
with vigor and determination to obliterate
"the curse-spot" just across the Potomac
1t will be seen from the extracts from
Gov OFerralrs letter published in the
Star today that he has been earnest and
persistent in his long-ago expressed inten-
ton to rid Alexandria county of the gam
bling evils so long besetting it. Saturday
raid was no spasmodic act, forced upon him
by the exigencies of the moment, but the
result of deliberate and carefully con-
ceived plan and the beginning of syste-
matte and thoroughly digested campaign.
1t will be seen that even the delay and sup
posed inaction attributed to him were part
of a project to allay the suspicious of the
gamblers themselves and make them easy
of capture when the proper time came.
That Gov O'Ferrall will not cease now in
the good work so theoretically begun is
evident to everyone who is familiar with
his utterances and his determined character
The eradication of gambling and its kindred
vices from the country across the river
will not only be of vast moral bene-
fit to Washington, but will open up a
splendid territory eminently we'll adapted
for homes, which has hitherto been forbid
den ground by reason of the dangerous and
disgraceful approaches to it. There has
been a decided improvement in the manner
in which the county itself has OF late han
died these evil conditions, Virginia has now
openly accepted the responsibility and un
dertaken the task of reforming them. ano
it is evident that Gov. O'Ferrall will seek
from the incoming Virginia legislature add
tional enactments to enable him to perform
thoroughly his cleansing labors. Altogether
the future is full of bright hope for Alex
andria county. naturally one Of the most at
tractive suburbs of Washington.

While many people believe that the Ed
munds act against polygamy and its
kindred evils was not intended in the be-
ginning to apply to the District of Column
bia, yet the action of the Court of Appeals
yesterday settled the question in the
affirmative and placed in the hands of the
police and the courts an instrument that,
if judiciously utilized, may be made 10 bet
ter the moral condition Of the city to an
appreciable extent AS Chief Justice Alvey
we'll said in his opinion. offences against
morality and public deoency are not the
less proper subjects of prevention and
punishment by law in this District than in
the territories or other places over which
the United States has exclusive jurisdic-
fion
