_ THE EVENING sSiak; THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON: TUESDAY . Mareb 1, 1897, CResEy 8. MOVES ‘The Evening “tar has bena fide daily circulation m than treble hat of any other daily paper published in a Washington, and wuch greater than that ef alt the other daily papere bere added _tegethor. Some Star Figures for February. ‘The number of new advertisements printed in ‘Tux Evenive Stak during the month of February Just closed was 3,542, being 783 more than were printed in the corresponding month last year, When the aggregate reached 3,062, and 232 more than were printed In the month of January, ‘1837,—Which, it will be observed, contains two more business days than the month of February. ‘The average dally cireulation of Twe Stak dur- ing February, 1887, was 26,200, against 24,321 in February, 1886, and $39 more than the average dally circulation in January last, which was 25,490, ‘The largest circulation for any one day in the Tmonth just past was that of Saturday, February 12th, When it reached 31,226 copies actually sold and circulated! ‘This is the largest ordinary and Tegular edition of the paper ever tssued,—that 13 to say when no extras were published, and when there was no specially exciting or Interesting news to attract public attention, and thus increase ‘the sales of the paper beyond the normal demand, ‘This circulation, within a population of 200,000, is ‘simply enormous, and presents a showing which cannot, ft is confidently believed, be equaled by ‘that of any other journal tn tt world. — ‘The people of Washington desire to express to the President of the Unitea States the surprise and indignation which the Trotter appoimtment inspires, The appointment of Matthews may have been only a blunder; the appolutment of ‘Trotter, Indicating a deliberate persistence In an undemocratic and up-American Line of conduct, 13 seareely less than @ poiltical crime. The people of thls Distriet have no votes, Here a democratic President mayysafely foster undemocratic carpet Dag rule, here a civil service reform President may ‘safely treat the ofices as polllical spotis, here the executive exponent of better methods may safely resort to attempted race bribery. President Cleve, land has taken an upright and admirable course im some great matiers which have been betore ‘him, Did he so act trom principle or policy, a an upright man or as 4 vote winuey? Is principle worth a fig which is sacriticed, where it can be done safely. to childish obstinacy or supposeal per- sonal advageement? Can if possibly be true that im the deteuseiess District alone the President 1s not bound by those principies of local self-govern- went and antl-carpet-bagism upon which the re- public Was founded aud continues to exist; that in the District alone be 1s not bound by the prom- tees of his party in a platform to which he has given his express adherence, and that the District oilies glone are not public trusts, but spotis to he aistributed by President Cleveland to his strikers as he sees fit,—to Chinamen in Just recognition of the fact that they are yellow, or to Indians in just Teeownition of the fact that they are red? ‘This appointment is an insult and a slap in the face to every District citizen, violating pledges apd ignoring natural rights. It isa double tosult to every District democrat, no one of whom ts ft, It seems, to be recorder, a fact compelling the Presi- dent toimpert a negro barber from Beston to fll ‘the office. It isa triple Insult to the colored demo- erats ip the Dtstrict, whe are snubbed personally, politically and a3 cltuens. If the President bad deen sincere in his expressed desire to have the office held by a negro, he would have appotnted a Tesident colored man, of whose confirmation there ‘would have been a reasonable prospect. But some of our colored citizens have shown so much ‘gfatitude at being snubbed in the appointment of @ New Yorker in preference to one of their num. Der that the President doubtless thought that 3 second snub would still further increase his popu- larity among them, and he probably expects them ‘ty lick the hand that spurns them, and to craw! and§eringe for the crumbs which may be expected to fall from Recorder Trotter's oMictal table. ‘The new democratic law ag laid down by Prest- dent Cleveland, iguring in Taney’s shoes, teaches tas no District citizen, white or eolored, demo- eratic of republican, has any rights which non- Tesident negroes (if they are political strikers for @ Presidans of the United States) are bound to Tespect, From this new Dred Scott decision the citizens of the District appeal to the people of the ‘Enited Staves. —_—_— = —___- A correspondent in another column discusses the matles of the scope of the District Commissioners’ discretion im the approval af liquor leenses. It is contended on the part of the probibitionists that Under the terms of the law this discretion Is abso- Jute. It has been maintained on the part of the Commissioners that as the law establishes a Ucense system, and practically protects the licensed Uquor dealers who meet certain requirements, the discretion 13 very limited, and in the doubt as to ‘the construction of the statutes the ‘Comuussion- rs are sald by their eritics to have found no room at all for the exervise of this discretion. ‘There ts, perhaps, a happy medium between the two post oma, On the ane hand It does not seem reason- able to view the discretion of the Commissioners: a8 so broad that all leenses may be Tefused, and the statutes establishing a license system with re- quirements preliminary to license rendered totally inoperetive. On the other hand, the law should ‘bot in reason be so construed as to render the dis cretion granted the Comulssiouers empty and Meaningless The grant of a liquor Ueense to a known house of Hi-fame would seem, for in Stance, to be progerly refused, no matter what preliminary requirements had been met. as we have a Hevase system i should be rigidly: euforeed, Ualiceused Uquor dealing should be cheoked, by suppression where conditions of evil bet Youd these which accompany the Dest conducted licensed saloons exist, aud by compelling Licenses to be taken In other cases, Our correspondent Suggests that # license system is an approach to Prohibition, in that it prohibits ‘eatioeneed aes dealing. Many advocates of temperance accept ‘this View and favor tn cities a very high license as being SU Turther probibition upon the liquor trailic, and, In some lustances, the most effective ‘That cau be obtalued.
