THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON semear ape 8 sm, It must be said to the credit of the minority re Port of the ways and means committee that it takes no round-about course and makes no pre- ‘Tenses, but goes directly to the potnt it has tn view to wit, the arraignment of the dem cratic party 4m power in the House and the executive branch of the Government. It ts a republican campaign document, pure and simple. It declares that the free list and heavy reductions of duty proposed by the majority bill wouid ruin several American tn- dustries, notably in the cases of Woo! and chem- cala It adds that a reduction of duties, instead of cutting down the surptus revenue, would rather iuerease it, by opening the way for extended im- portations; whereas the sweeping away of all in- ‘vernal taxes on tobacco, and on alconol used inthe arta, Would not only relieve domestic producers of an oppressive burden, but bring the hoarding of money in the Treasury down to @ minimum. It aseribes the evils of the surplus to the democrats, and claims that the President could bave avoided ‘the alleged peril trom the surplus by exer- cising his power of purchasing outstand- img bonds. It traces the difference between ‘tas policies of the republicans and of the demo- crate In respect to revenue-Teduction, as shown by the records of the two pasties for the last twenty- two years, claiming that the reductions of the revenues made by the republicans were sixty times 8 great as those watle by the democrats during sR equal period. The issue is now fairly jotned. ne Inauguration day is not to be changed at pres- nt, and the capital mourns However, no Wash- ingtonian will be cailed upon to contract pueu- sonia by riding bareheaded down the avenue on the 4th of March in the ipresidential chariot or hnscx, and surely no one so little amenable to rea- sou a8 the opposers of the change in the House is at all likely to be selected by the mation to run vhs sk. So that some who favor and all who oppose the later date for inauguration are reason- sbly safe from the consequences of a refusal to sake the change. The result of a congressional vote 18 more uncertain than woman. In the last Congress the proposition in regard to inauguration day would have passed without difficulty, and was prevented by a mere trifle. In this Congress, | ‘while tne Senate approves the measure unanl- agously the House defeats it, though presented fn two different shapes to adapt ft toits pleasure, the vecond defeat being more decisive than the first, Perhaps the next Congress will, on the cycle ‘theory, swing back to an enthusiastic endorse. agent of the proposed change. —<$<— If good common sense 1s a quality to be taken into account and paid for in selecting a cook, Mr. Vanderbilt's expensive culinary artist is undoudt- edly worth all he cosia, He takes the ground that five courses, and none of them heavy, with afew ‘choice Wines, are enough for any dinner, and that the charm of such an occasion consists not 30 much in the variety and expensiveness of the viands a8 tp the manner fn which they are cooked, and, especially, in the tasteful style in which they are served. This is as true as the mpultiplication table, and its pertinency cannot be to foretbiy impressed upon housekeepers. The wistake too often made by dinuer-givers ts in the eatertainment of the notion that their guests are made happy in proportion with the number of courses supplied, and wat the highest possible compliment 1s paid when the whole affair ts turned over to a professional caterer. The result in these case3 is that not only does one dish taste much Uke another, but a dinner at oue house ts in all essential particulars the counterpart of one given in another. There 1s no individuality of either host or hostess in the entertainment or | table appointments, and guests leave the dining- room With the feeling that, barring 1ts cost, they might about as well have goue to the restaurant at once for their dinner. Far different ts the spirit tm Which guests rise from a table spread with fewer choice dishes, conscientiously cooked under ‘the supervision of sa intelligent and careful housewife, and daintily served with table appoint. ments which represent the means and taste of the family, and not those of somebody else. Under ‘these circumstances the company becomes for the time being members of the household, and that is | at One® the highest form of civility and whe best evidence of regard. $$: Arthur Orton, the notorious Tichborne claimant, has gone back to England with a few American dollars in his pocket—but only a few—to renew nis demand for the estate belonging rightfully to ‘the missing Sir Roger. His experience in this country has been bitterly disappulating. He came over here with the idea that Americans would sloek to bis lectures; Dut sofew cared to hear ‘what he had to say that his bilis for ball rent ate up all the littie sum he had saved during his long umprisonment. He came too late, and he took the wrong track asa showman. Seventeen years ago he was ap object of interest on Both sides of the Atlantic.
