CHEAP RIDES FOR woRk1SGMEN,

The Evening Star appeals to street
car companies TO cheaper their fare dur
ing the morning hours TO accommodate
working people. This method prevails
in several manufacturing cities and is
carried into effect by selling communication
tickets good only at such hours as the
majority OF wage-eaners travel to and
from their work. Were it possible to
bring about such q desirable result the
good accomplished would be worth an
extra ordinary effort But our street car
companies are not given 10 conferring
favors, and it is doubtful if anything
short or an act of Congress would induce
ity.
One thing Congress should do. In every
other city street car companies contribute
to the City treasury part of their earn
ings in the form of transportation tax
on all tickets Sold There is no reason
why such tax should not be levied on the
District street car companies. Under the
present arrangement they use our streets
for roadways and blockade them with side
tracks and trains of cars; they openly defy
the law, and refuse to remove distractions.
In some instances they treat employees in
humanely and otherwise disregard their
interests, and while acting as public ser
wants, depending upon public patronage,
they pay not penny into the treasury for
the extraordinary privileges granted
II, in return for these benefits, these COM
panies derive without fee or license
our street car companies will not cheaper
their fares to working people, they should
be charged for their franchises and made
to pay tax for every person carried on
their roads.

selves and lay their case before the next
Congress. The best way to do this is TO
send in The Times coupons, which will form
mammoth petition when activity next
reigns at the house on the Hill.
Much may be expected from the next
Congress. 1t will have a majority free
from the seductive influences of our gas

ADVANCED on THE ENEMY.


The captain deployed his meu and ad-
vanced in the direction of the enemy,
carefully taking advantage Of every little
bush or hollow to screen his men from the
deadly fire Of the invaders, who, from what
could be Seen of them at intervals, ap-
peared to be Indians in full war paint
Gradually Capt. Barbour's men without
any casualties drove the enemy out of the
woods in rear OF the camp, and cease
firing" was the welcome call that greeted
his men. The heat was iutense and the
troopers We're glad to letup. At first il was
thought that the trouble wa all over, but
just as everyone was engaged in cooling
OFF at the canteen wagon a second attack
was made upon the camp. These two at
tacks had not been prearranged and the
captain determined he would get at the
bottom of the matter
His command was soon on the skrmish
line again, pouring a deadly fire into
the enemy at every point where a little
puff OF smoke Indicated the presence OF
foe. Soon it was evident that the troop
erS outnumbered those opposed to them
aud charge was made resulting in the
capture of three Indians, Sitting Bull

the music of a military dirge to the
cdnteen wagon where he was peacefully
laid away.
The road to-day has been over the noted
Leesburg pike, and a worse road cannot
well be imagined. That the wagons got
thorough without losing half of their con-
tents demonstrates the fact that the militia
cavalrymen know how to load wagons
-Four years ago when this point was reached
everybody was glad of it and anxious TO
get home. On this occasion everyone is
sorry the trip isso nearly at an end
The fifteen days consumed in the march
have passed all too quickly and officers and
men regret that they have not two weeks
march ahead of them. Anoth.r wonderful
feature of the trip is the fact that only
nominal assessment has been made on the
men, and it is anticipated that there will
be no deficit. The men have lived splen-
didly, and the cost of living has been in the
neighborhood of but 2S cents per man per
day

that was heard from the boys as they un-

IL won't rain so that we can show the good

But unfortunately il did rain, ard rain so
hard that when the hour set apart for
drill arrived, Capt. Barbour determined
to have none. II had cleared, but the
ground was in such a condition that
maneuvering on horseback would have
been dangerous.
Several hundred people from Leesburg,
however, visited Camp H S Barbour
in the evening, and Were agrecably enter
tanned by the whole command Before
dark a beautiful contest in high jumping was
given by Lieut.. Phlsbury and Privates
BeaSley and Macias. The latter, on a
little bay horse purchased by Sergt Fred
Springman III Winchester, easily took
first honors, clearing a stiff jump of four
feetcightinches. Corporal EubanI mounted
on horse that could not jump If il wanted
to, created considerable laughter in his
