to THE _EVENI WASHING THURSDAY : ‘The Evening Star has a regular, permanent bona fide dally circulation mere than treble that of any ether ante mone semnea ts Washington, and mech greater than ef alt the other duily papers here added togetber. — ‘Tne ‘Thanksgiving Day which the President yearly appoint is still more than six months dis. tant, Dut the Thankagiving Day which the demo- _ €ratic caucus of the House has given the country by coming to a satisfactory compromise in respect to the direct tax Dill, will be celebratea with fervor to-day Wherever the folly and peril of the late deadiock have been appreciated. The action of the caucus seems to amouat to an agreement ‘upon the opening of the next seasion of Congress asthe time when the direct-tax bill shall be paseed. But Rowever the caucas decision ts prop- erly construed tn its bearing upon the direct-tax Du, and Whetuer the majority or the minority has ‘the advantage tm the compromise, the public will De glad that the obstruction to legislation is re. wored An opening being now made in the dam, the accumulated business of Congress may be ex- pected to break trough tamultuously and flow totrentilke for a few days, but the current of affairs at the Capitol will doubtless quickly re- suime Its even, quiet flow. ee i ees ‘So much poise was made in Rhode Island, during the recent political canvasa, by the quarrel be- ‘Tween the leading men and pewspapers in the re- pubbean party, that the outside world heard ‘shmost nothing of the revolution which was quietly taking place Within the little state. It appears now that the clause in the state constitu. ea, Which required every naturalized citi- 7m t© Own & freehold valued at $124, or renting for §7 a year, 4s a prerequisite to casting a vot, Waa wiped out by am amendment adopted by a very slender majority. The restriction thus abollabed was less obnoxious than the one against which Dorr rebelled in 1842, and which united an element of ueredity with the property qualifica- Uo, Dut it was bad enough, for it had regularly ctSfranchised a multitude of people against whom uo charge could be made except that they had been unfortunate in financial matiers, or had chosen some otber form of lavestment than real estate for ‘Lhe disposal Of their savings. The effect of the re- striction was to reduce the total vote of the sta e wearily One-half of Its normal amount. The total population of Rnode Island, by the census of 1880, putation of five members to a household, and make the voting population somewhere about 50,000, ‘The largest votes recorded on state Jections up to that year, however, never exceeded 25,000, and usually felt consideravly short of 20,000 Supposing the state to have grown during the last seven years proportionally to its | growth during the ten years just preceding, | ‘she ought now (Lave a voting population of be- ‘tween 05,000 and 70,000. Some recent statisti- cians give it as nearly 85,000. Yet the uncom- ‘monly Tull rote of Wednesday last brought out lesa tuan40,000 ballot. ‘The wiping out of the old re- striction will give Rhode Isiand a place in politics bevier corresponding to the rank Co wuich her im- portance in other respects entities her. Both par- es will lay claim to the suffrages of the newly epfranchised thousands, The democrats Delleve they will get the bulk of them, on the theory that the foreign element in the population naturally tends to that side; while the repubiicans believe that the new voters will eniist with the dominant party in the state, because that party gave them ‘Ubeir franchise, _ After all the scaling-ladders and telescopic rescue-poles, and patent escapes of every known material, from iron to asbestos rope, have been ‘tried and found ineffective against certain con- ‘Ungencies at great fires, the lifesaving authori- es have finaily turned their attention to perfect- ing a system which will enable persons in burn- thg buildings to jump out of the upper windows into a net held by a circle of mem on the ground. The trouble with every de. ‘vice of this kind thus far consists not in the quality of the net, or the difficulty of in- Gucing pereons wo jump, but in the unsteady nerves of the undisciplined volunteers who bold the net. They become panic-stricken, either trough anmety for the safety of the jumper or ‘through fear that. the failing body will strike and rush them. They therefore, at a critical mo meat, either rush toward each other, thus slack- ening the net, or pull in diagonally opposite direc. ons, thus distorting its shape, or drop their hold altogether, which is worst of all, It may not be advisable to require professional firemen to leave the other work Which they are specialiy quaitfied to perform, and to become net- holders; but the idea snggests itself whether, in every large city, there could not be organized a corys of citizens, im the nature of a charitable gr mutual defensive association, who would subrffit to a regular dru in this line of work, and bold themselves in readiness to respond to certain Kinds of fire-alarms which would indicate ‘Uhat the Durning building 1s thickly peopled tn its upper stories. A half dozen such men ata fire, taking the direction of things on the ground, and calling to their aid, from the ranks of the specta- Tors, a few of the strongest and least excited, could accomplish a great deal If an organization of this Kind 1s not feastbie, the work of net manipu- lation may require to be made tue special duty of 4 part of the firemen. —$—— A phaseof the recent rafirosd strikes in the West which has not received all the attention it deserves is the relation whieh the great carrying companies sustain to the public. if a railway were a piece of private property confined within the Umits of a single estate and needing no favors from the people at large, there would be nothing unreasonable In the demand of master and ser- vant to be allowed to fight out their quarrels in thetgown way. But such is not thecase. The ‘Burlington ratiway system traverses a large area of country, and derives 123 franchises from the generous concessions of more than one common- Wealth, To the people who granted these conces. sions it owes something in return; and its domestic quarrels should not be permitted to interrupt busi- ness and travel as this oue has done. There Ought to be some compulsory system of adjudica- ton to cover cases of this sort—a system which can be enforced througn the courts at the tastance of men and others who suffer loss or In- conYenience through a strike. It may not be fair to say that too much attention bas been given in ‘the past to the adjustment of relations between capital and labor in matters like this; but cer- tainly too little consideration has been given to the right of the general public to demand that its interests shall not be sacrificed because one party to & private controversy regards itself as lll-treated by the other. ——_— + —____ ‘The advertising seneme of a Detroit newspaper, which offers a prize to the persou who makes a correct guess as to the Ubree days next summer when tne thermometer will touch the highest sarc tn Detroit, has called forth a great number of respouses already, and they are muluplying daily. General Greely, im a recent magazine art cle, says that the hottest weather east of the Mis. ‘appl should occur between the 12th and the 17th of July. It is noteworthy, however, that not one of the guesses sent in by General Greely’s fel- Jow townsmen of Washington, up to the latest ‘MccOUnLS received, confines itself to the period he names. Three Washingtonians guess July 17h, asth and 19th, only one of these dates Within his prophecy. Another guesses July ¥ 23d and 27th; another July 11th, 12th and 13th” taking in two of the Greely dates; another Juiy 20th, ‘ist and 224, and another July 24th, 25th and ontn. ploy oa public worka There ts no reason, really, why our Government should not rule out ail for- felations between government and ere x xX A EXTRA JAE EEE K FRIDAY.
