THE EVENING STAR. “WASHINGTON: SATURDAY....... CROSBY 5. NOYES... ‘The Evening Star has a regular, permanent bona Aide daily circulation more than treble that of any other daily paper published in Washington, and much greater than that ef all the other daily papers here added together. Se ‘The report on the relation of railroads to forest supplies and forestry, issued by the forestry di- vision of the Department of Agriculture, puts into the small space of a huntred and firty pages a mass of information which could have been culled eniy from ® dozen volumes in an eucyclopedia, Dr. Fernow has illustrated bis pamphlet with Photonierographic pictures showing the growth and distribution of cells in sections of various spe- cies of forest lumber used for railway tes, and ac- companies the descriptive text with hints for the Detter preservation of the wood now in use, He ‘adds also a paper on metal ties, which are used in gome parts of the world as a substitute for wooden. ‘All (his represents only one side of the subject of tue pamphiet, by showing the steady process of @enutation going on on the Western hillsides for the supply of a single article used by the railroad System of the country, and the possibility of checking{t intime. The other side of the subject— the accidental damage wrought by the roads, as wyoeens to tne deliberate havoc—ts touched upon by Dr. NX. H. Egleston in a paper on forest fires caused Dy sparks from locomotives In this the startling conclusion ts reactfd, from statistics gathered in the single year 1880, when the rallway system of the country was cousiderabiy smaller han now, that growing timber of the aggregate value of more than three millions of dollars was Gestroyed by fires kindled presumptively by loco- Motives, This was nearly thirteen per cent. of all the damage from forest fires occurring in that Year. Such figures as these emphasize with un- Usual force the demand, belleved to be answered 4m the bill urged by the American Forestry Con- gress, for a strict official supervision of the wood Tands of the West, where the population is sparse and the timber acreage vast, anda lance propor- on of the property lacks the benefit of that care which the forests of the East generally receive from private ownership. Se General Jackson makes haste to explain some of Bis remarkable utterances at the Macon celebra- tion by saying that, in his comparison of Lincoln and Davis he regarded the former merely as a Yepresentative of the centralized federal govern- ment idea, and the latter as a representative of ‘the state rights doctrine which seemed to be lald ‘Gown in the Constitution. it was in this sense, he ‘saya, that he believed posterity would place Mr. Davis anead of Mr. Lincoin. General Jackson must have read history in vain if he has not observed What the whole trend of our policy as a people from the day the Declaration of Independence was fesued tll the present time, has been away from ‘the theory of a loose confederation and toward the theory of a broad-powered national govern- meat If this movement ts to be reversed at some future time, it will be only by a ‘Successful sectional revolt; and the results of the late war of secession are not likely to encourage anyone to begin another ina hurry. Mr. Lincoin’s fame therefore bids fair to maintain its present ‘eminence as long as his most ardent admirers can wish. General Jackson's explanation is incom- plete and unsatisfactory. Senator Colquitt, to ‘Whose seat the rampant orator aspires, publishes im the last number of the Forum a thoughtful article denying that the negro vote 1s suppressed {m Georgia, and appealing to Americans for fair treatment of Southerners. It recognizes that some questions were settled by the war, and breathes throughout the spirit of conciliation und depre- cation of a revival of the war issues which 1s.a characteristic of the new and prosperous South. Georgia is asked to substitute for this man one ‘Who revives war issues, to the Injury of hils section and his party, in order to place himself in the Senate and “get even” with Secretary Bayard. $< A lively chase has now begun after the imml- grants who came over in a ship from a cholera-tn- fected port of Italy, and whom the health author- ities at New York p-rmitted to go their way with- ‘out the proper precautions to prevent thelr car- rying the disease with them in their clothing and furniture. The prospect of tracing and overtak- Ang them 1s fair, but what damage they may al- Feady have innocently doue cannot De estimated ‘The time to have made all this fuss was when the immigrants landed, not after they bad taken themselves and their belongings into the Interior. Neither the avarice of a political boss, nor the ‘stubborness of a governor ought to be permitted to weigh In the balance for a moment against such @ peril as now menaces the whole country from the port of New York. The legislature which meets next January ought to amend the statutes, Af need be, so as to sweep away half the pay of the quarantine commission, and devote the money, ‘thus practically wasted under the existing sys- ‘tem, to the proper equipment of the quarantine islands. Meanwhile, it is to be hoped that public sentiment Will make itself so severely felt that Commissioner Platt, who rules the whole of the {ical roost in the harbor, from the health of- of the port down to the lowest mentel in the hospital service, will be moved by selfish consider. ations if no others to do something toward im- Proving the present scandalous condition of things, oe Political reworks keep up aconstant fizz and pop- ping in Paris, which would be entertaining but for the proximity of powder magazines which need only the application of a spark to shake ali Europe with the resulting explosion. The Count de Paris and Prince Victor Napoleon ‘have pleased themselves by issuing rival manifestoes, as harmless as the discharges in the traditional French duel Boulangerites and anti-Boulanger- ites skirmish constantly with varying resulta ‘The latest move against Boulanger in the exposure Of the sale of decorations and the other features of the Caftarel scandal seems to have left bim un- harmed, to have resulted disastrously to Wilson, President Grevy’s son-in-law, who is now being Overwhelmed with bitter denunciations, and wo threaten the oMficial lives of President Grevy and of ‘the cabinet which he put in office tooust Boulan- ger. France is evidently too much absorbed in these local squabbies to go voluntarily to war She 1s diverted by Mreworks from a resort to cannon. ————— ‘The new deed of gift of the Amertea’s cup ts eriticised as putting cualleagers at a disdvantage Dy more stringent limitations #5 to size, by tne creasing the time of notice of challenge, and by Providing that in case of disazreement as to the terms of a maten three races on ocean courses Shall be held in which there shall b> no tine al- Jowanca, Oaly the largest sized yacht which t deed of gift permitsesn safely chailenge under ‘these coniitions since a sumaller vesset will be ompelied, by a disagreement as to terms whicn Would surely happen, to sall three ocean races ‘Without time allowance against a yacht superior in size.

ADVANTAGES TO PEOPLE WITH MONEY. ‘Manufacturers and Importers see the state of the financial barometer. “Bad; it couldn't be worse,” so remarked « well- known New York Importer yesterday. “Philadelphia and Baltimore are as badly off as Washington, and ‘New York trade, if possible, worse.” Terribly hard on the poor Manufacturers, too. The fow retail merchants ‘who have money and pluck are buying at prices below cost of manufacturer. ‘Tis true people with money to spare can use it to better advantage Just now than for years previously; but who bss the money to spare? ‘The surplusin the Treasury must becirculated. Which Party is going to doit? Deeds, not words, are in order. Perhaps the lowest prices ever quoted in Washington are now being quoted by the PALAIS ROYAL. The prices will illustrate the fact that manufacturers and Importers are selling below cost. The cash purchase system of the PALAIS ROYAL is reaping (should reap) ‘rich harvest just now. One illustration is California ‘Wool Blankets. The pricesare low enough to crowd the department even during this warm weather. Merritt's Unshrinkable Flannel Skirts are at crowd-causing Prices, Black Silks—before you decide it would be ‘well to get samples from the various stores—the best ‘and cheapest are then evident, The new Black silks ‘at the PALAIS ROYAL may or may not be the cheapest intown, The new departments—Shoes, Boys' Cloth- ing, Upholstery, Books—are being advertised in s peculiar way. Not much is said in the papers, but certain articles in each department are sold (eo it is claimed) at cost—for instance, the 82.68 Ladies’ Kid hoes for 82. Booksfor lo. each, $3.50 Curtains for 83. 83.75 Boy's Overcosts for $3.25, andsoon, The 68c. Kid Gloves must be good value or you wouldn't hear people talking of them so much. The“Forchette” is the Glove for the elite; it's $1.89 st the PALAIS ROYAL, Some warm Underwear for Men and Women represent an Importer's anguish (anguish prices for the Importer, rejoicing prices for Washinaton people.) “Business seems good with you." Mr. Lisner’s reply ‘was, “It's an ill wind that blows nobody good. I'm buying very very cheap just now, and though I'm quoting such low prices I'm making # living profit and attracting the people, as you sea.” 029 ‘ERS, ILDREN'’S CANTON FLANNEL DRA Cisceeaiig: uae Cate ere ers, ma rat ¥ pate 745 and 747 Bthat. se.
