YACHTING AT BAY0ENB
New yersey A. G.. Proposes to Make
the Sport Successful.

One of the strongest departments Of the
New Jersey A. c.. is the yachting depart
ment. The club is nicely situated for
y~achtsmen, its anchorage is one of the
best in or about New York city and as
a result the yachting contingent is very
strong. There are thirty-three yacht own
ers in the club and when the whole fleet
is under sail it makes a very striking
appearance. The yachtsmen met this
week and elected the following officers
for 1885,
Commodore. 7. J. Parker: vice-commo-
dore. w. F. Bernard: rear commodore.

1t was many years ago when Addison
wrote: Take a fine lady who is of a
delicate frame, and you may observe
from the hour she rises a certain weari-
ness of all that passes about her. I
know more than one who is much too
nice to be quite alive.'' Since that good
old time Philadelphia has taken it upon
herself to make mice people, represent
cutie another kind Of specimen. The
nice woman of today is the one who is
alive from head to foot, who is trimming
over with genial goodness to all the out
side world, who is like a bit of sunlight
after a dull day. and whose people rise
up and call her blessed wherever she
may go. If she is a mistress she never
imposes on her servants; if she is a wife
she does not nag her husband: II she is
unmarried she does not utter cutting
sarcasms about conjugal infelicities; If
she IS on a comulittee she conciliates
her fellow members; If she is an officer
of a elab she IS uniformly pleasant to
every che; and so on, ad iifinituin. She
is typical OF the evolution thai describes

TREATED WITH KINDNESS
Good Words for Supt. Cutler of the
Municipal /. lodging House.

Editor Times: We ask that you will give
us space In your valuable paper. believing
that you will listen to the wishes of the poor
and unfortunate people who are trying to
earn an honest penny to help support their
families at home. 1t has been our mis-
fortune to be thrown out of employment
by the hard times that have hung over our
heads for the past two or three years. This
has brought us to this city looking for work.
We find that il is overstUcked with many
good men, as Wen as bad, looking for work,
as well as for a place to lay their heads
and get piece of bread to eat. We. as
well as many more, have become stranded
and had TO ask for a place to stay out OF
the cold and wet.
Looking around for such place, we were
directed to the Municipal Lodging House, on
Twelfth street. There we Were given
job of saving wood for our supper, lodging
and breakfast. and we went at 1t with a
will. Soon supper was ready and we were
directed to fall in by the superintendent,
Mr.. Cutler. Our supper consisted of cof-
fee, bread and a big stew, of beef, potatoes
and rice. After supper we We're put to
bed, first having good warm bath, and got
n nice nightgown to sleep in, which made
us forget our troubles for awhile. In the
morning there was good breakfast.
THIS was our living for three days, saw
ing wood for each days board and lodging.
We cannot leave this house, Mr.. Editor,
without speaking good word for the super
intendent, Mr.. Cutler, who does everything
in his power to make everyone who comes
there feel at home by good word of cheer
and giving all the information in his power
to aid them.

is as foolish to talk of q popular bond
ID the Potomac for pearls. There is gold
enough in the country, but 1t is in hands OF
bankers who are controlled by the advice
OF these great spectators, and they viii
not use 1t to purchase bonds unless through
n syndicate or in some great national
emergency. Possibly threat from the
President to adopt silver redemption might
open their Golfers, bat nothing short OF a
national calamity or an issue OF gold
bonds will bring about the desired re-
suit.
Under these circumstances the Nene-
Zuclan message was an ineXcusable diplo-
matte bunder Had our financial horizon
been clear, and had we not through
our unfortunate financial system, been
dependent upon European capitalists
the burning of little national
red fire TO warm up our patriotism
could not have resulted in harm. As II is,
has intensified the feeling of uneasiness in
monetary circles and disturbed our peace
ful relations with England. In the eyes
OF people who wear stars and stripes as
an everyday garb this state of affairs is
not Objectionable. but to business men
whose welfare depends, on public pros
perity, tits a cause Tor serious alarm.
But possibly President Cleveland's luck,
pluck and bull Medicines may steer us
clear of these troubles.

Burning BIue-Light on the Situation.

If the blue-fire denunciatious that have
been brought out by this last months
excessive gas and electric light bills could
be used as an illuminant nearly every house
hold in the city could supply its own light.
The complaint seems general. Even our
dlmly lighted gas lamps plead for relief,
and were it not for the reason and the fact
that old Sol smiles us into good humor at
least half the day we would become so ac-
customed to emphasizing the names OF
our gas and electric lighting plants with
our category OF big words that they would
be made part of our swearoiogy.
The reading public will commend Senator
Mcmillan, chairman of the Senate District
committee, for ii:s efforts to give them
a free library and reading room. But it
seems more like an attempt to divert at
tention from the volume OF corporation
and ring legislation that will follow than
a genuine act of philanthropy. Possibly
this may not be true. Perhaps the Senate
Committee may change its record and
recommend a few other measures of general
public benefit but under the leadership
of its brilliant chairman no such desirable
concession may be expected. Senator Nc
MILAN is president of the Detroit Gas Com
pany, stockholder in at least one OF the
Detroit street railways, and large owner
in a car works that supplies the railroads
that run into Washington with n part of
their rolling stock. And it is not likely
that he will lend his efforts to injure
The morning times., 1896-01-01

corporations in which he is either financial
ly or otherwise interested.
The Times proposes in the near future to
publish the business and professional his
tory of the several Senators and Repre-
sentatives who compose the District com
mittees of Congress. The public should
know them in order to form an opinion of
what may be expected of their committee
deliberations. Legislators, either in the
employ OF corporations as advisory coun-
sci, or in sympathy with them for some
other reason, will not, rs rule, favor laws
looking toward a retrenchment of their
power. For that reason an examination of
the business and professional connections
OF our District committeeman would dis
close how TAR they are under the control
of the ring and corporation element.
washington needs relief from the burden
of ring and monopoly rule. 1t might also
be said that we should have another form
of municipal government. The gas, cleo
tric light, telephone, railroad, and street
car companies. either with or without
the sanction of the Commissioners, have
heretofore controlled legislation in their
own sweet way. If no assistance can lie
had from the District committees 20 put
an end to this form of "holding up the
public, an effort must be made to induce
Congress to do it by reversing the reports
of the committees. Let The Times show
readers the way.

Editor Times: Your paper has expressed
such sympathy and interest in the affairs
of the unfortunate locked-out drivers that
1 venture to make this appeal to you,
hoping you viii publish 1t or something
to the same effect. 1t causes ones heart
to ache To see the drivers of the Anacostia
herdics without protection against the
weather. The cold winter rain beats on
their laps. protected by nothing but the
skirts of their otercoats, and these are
none too thick. Could not tile District As

vide them with rubber lap covers? The

upon the other labor organizations for Con-
tributions to buy them? / wish 1t were

sYMPATHIZING WIDOW.
The morning times., 1896-01-01
Begins to Agree With The Times.

For more than n year The Times has
called pubtic attention to the gangs of
touShs. thieves aud thugs that have made
Washington their headquarters since the
opening OF The outlaw tracks. 1t has time
and asaia pointed out tue inability of our
inadequate. police force to cope with the
situation, and has repeatedly called on law
abiding citizens to unite in an effort to
free themselves from this lawiessness. As
a means of counteracting the popularity of
this movement our contemporaries have
charged The Times with attempting 10 dis
credit the fair name of our city and in
doing SO have claimed that this community
w'iS not only well governed, but WAS COM
paratively free from the lawless element.
In commenting on the arrest of The Times
woman one day last week for smoking a
cigarette on the streets, our morning con-
temporary maprully acknowledges its er-
ror and described existing conditions in
the following vigorous language:
This town is full of criminals-pocket-
book snatclers, razor and revolver car
riers, burglars, thugs and hoodums. Rrck-
ieNs "i,stcs tcsuht'eNchiciesdt Dreak-Dech speed
and violate not only written law, but OBJ
yious prupriety every hour Of the day.
One can hardly walk through a lonely neigh
boThuOd at any hour without enCountcring
4 rurfian prepared for any violence. Is the
whole force of our police to be directed
against innocent organ grinders, whose
monkeys happen to attract crowd, and
foolish young women who think it fine
thing to smoke a cigarette in public? We
should really like to know
As las been stated, the chief cause of

and that its aims and purposes are yet
higher and yet grandcr thanevcn that which

that the world is getting better all the while
and that the brotherhood of man is more
closely knit today than it was year ago.
1t is full of sunshine and brightness, this

and dependency have hung about the old
are dispclled. 1t beckons us onward end

NEW YEARS GREETING.

A Year of Pro>perity-washin
Not Graveyard for Honest Journal
tsm-The Times the Paper of the
People.
1t can be truthfully claimed that The
Times began its era OF prosperity one year
ago today. 1t was then that its present
mana cement assumed control, and at that
time the work of advocating public inter
ests, regardless of consequences, began. 1t
had been fully predicted that The Times
would be failure. 1t was said that Wash
ington was a graveyard for newspapers,
and that as 1t was necessary TO truckle to
corporate and ring interests to achieve
success, The Times would go under, be-
cause those influences already controll-
ed all the newspapers in this city they
cared to support.
! But The Times thought differently. Its
management believed that a newspaper
conducted under vigorous, fearless policy
would meet public favor, and that advertis-
ers would give their support to The Times,
or any other newspaper that had the neces-
sary circulation. Actuated by that belief
The Times put aside all prejudices, aban-
doned political preferences, threw off incli-
nations to favor creeds and denominations,
and became an unpurchasable, Independent
newspaper. 1t has never deviated from
that upright, straightforward policy, and
its prosperity began with Its determination
to become paper of the people.
A comparison of the circulation of The
Times with that of other Washington dali
ciated. Its revenues have not been as
large, because it lacks the patronage of
an element that usually pays well for
good thing. But it has the confidence of
the public and it can afford to wait until
circumstances shall render District affairs
incapable of being shaped by paid news
paper Influence, and governed by the
schemes OF oney-making spectators.
That time is near at hand. A glance at
the record The Times has made in the past
year in unlUysing the hold this element has
on the public will 81 Nv that its end is
approaching. and during the coming year
still greater efforts will be made to accom-.
plish its downfall. Ali the reward The
Times asks pr rendering this service is
the Patronage Of the public. The Morn
ing and Evening editions of The Times
give more and better news than any other
Washington daily, and they are delivered
to any address in the city for fifty cents
month. II you are a friend to morality,
honest public service and fearless, upright
Journalism, send in your subscription to
