4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: CROSBY S. NOYVES.................. Editor. The Evening Star has a regular, permanent bena fide daily circulation more than treble that ef any ether daily paper published in Washington, and mach greater than that ef all the other daily papers here added together. ————— Police Commissioner Voorhis, of New ead city, disposes of the difficulty raised by excessive registration very readily. The fact that the average capacity of asingle precinct poll has been proved to be 400 voters in one day, he regards as the result of poor work on the part of the clerks there, and he proposes to get around that trouble by distributing the clerks oyer the city according to their respect- ive rapidity of action. The quick men he ‘would place at the polls where the largest reg- istration has taken place, and the poorer ones at those where the smaller lists are. As he es- timates the capacity of a wide-awake clerk at about 1,100 votes a day, and the heaviest regis- tration in any precinct falls below 700, he does not regard the emergency as serious. In all this, however, the commissioner takes into aceount only the possibility of voters casting all their ballots at once. He does not consider the chance of a good many availing themselves of Attorney-General Tabor’s opin- ion and voting « single ticket ata time. Per- haps the best way to avoid that nuisance would be to publish widely an order to the police to arrest every man who comes back a second time tos poll, in order to have the question tested in the courts, There is no ordinary rea- son why anyone should insist on breaking up his vote in this manner, and it raises a pre- sumption of malicious intent which it is but right he should be compelled to explain away. Governor Hill’s plan is yet simpler than that of Commissioner Voorhis. He proposes to have the clocks in the polling-places turned back, if necessary, as is done without compunc- tion in legislative chambers at the close of a session. But there is always the danger of this fictions being attacked in the courts and votes ‘thrown out inconsequence. A better means of attaining the same end would be to havea gong strike at the instant of closing the polls, and acordon be formed by the police to pre- vent additions to the queue of votes which then to be formed. Each of those voters is tively, evn if not actually, depositing his ballo; at that moment, and there is no logi- cal reason why it shou'!d not be counted. The purpose of a public election is to ascertain the will of the majority of the citizens in any com- munity ; and, if a registered citizen does his whole duty and makes his best endeavor to comply with the terms of the lay, presenting himself, ballots in hand, at the polling-place within the hours prescribed, the chances are that the courts would uphold his demand for permission to vote. There is no doubt that, by one subterfuge or another, the vote of New York city will be gathered in, even if the poll-clerks are robbed of their usual leisure, and restricted in the time they have set apart* for chaffing each other and replenishing their quids of tobacco. We have Governor Hill’s word for it, in an in- terview given yesterday to a newspaper re- porter, that “the citizens, and especially the democrats, need give themselves no uneasiness over the possibility that their votes will not be counted.” This assurance ought to quiet the fears of the governor’s fellow partizans, cer- tainly. As for the people on the other side, why, they can get up early in the morning and make sure of their votes by casting them he- fore breakfast. oo The New York World has exhibited its custo- mary enterprise. even if it has not added a great deal to the prophetic knowledge of the public concerning the result of the com- ing election, by ordering from its corres- pondents in each county of New York state an estimate of the vote of that county, prepared from a comparison of the estimates made by the local campaign managers of both parties. The net total shows a democratic plurality of somewhat more than 23,000. When it isobserved that this includes 90,500 plurality south of Harlem River, its value will be subject to some discount in the minds of unprejudiced students of the situ- ation; for it reduces the republican plurality north of the river to about 67,500, which is less, as shown by the table printed in Taz Star a few days ago, than the republican pluralities of 1872 and 1880, when the population of the state was smaller, and the aggregate of its pro- tected industries much less. It more nearly approaches the figures of 1968 and 1884. It may be remembered, also, that in the latter year some of the most intelligent correspond- ents, whose papers, though favoring the demo- cratic ticket, had especially instructed them to let no personal leaning warp their estimates, ciphered out an absolutely certain majority for Cleveland, within three weeks of election day, of not less than 30,000. Such figures will con- tinue to be misleading till the canvassing pro- cess is reduced to a house-to-house inquisition all over the doubtful states, such as Simon Cameron used to conduct in his own congres- sional district, and Mr. Tilden planned for dangerous rural neighborhoods when his activ- ities were still confined within the borders of his native commonwealth. Joel B. Erhardt, the republican candidate for mayor of New York, excuses his abstinence fram the epistolary warfare now carried on by the two democratic candidates by saying that his time is too precious to spend in writing letters when there is so much more important work to be done. “Important” isa good word, but Mr. Erhardt might have been more candid and admitted that he preferred a safer tion. The amount of damage that has been done by the errant pen to the careers of eminent men in our day, from the confidential Doorkeeper Fitzhugh to the simple-minded Lord Sackville, ought to warn persons ambitious of retaining their grip on things to reserve their letter- writing for such innocent topics as the state of their health and the prospects of the weather. a The Supreme Court's repetition of its de- cision concerning the unconstitutionality of the tax upon drummers indicates that the knight of the sample case is as invincible in Texas as in the District of Columbia, and that the whole boundless continent is his. ‘The absurd statement of the New York World that its circulation “is larger in Washington than that of all the Washington combined” discredits its boasts concerning its circulation in the city where it is published. “False in one, false in all” —_—<——— The Emperor of Germany is tired of the press discussion concerning his misbehavior as @ son, and of being contrasted with his dead father to his own disadvantage. He informs the Berliners that he is not only painfully im- pressed thereby, but that his displeasure has been aroused, and the Berliners are suppoeed to tremble. It would be better for Germany if the painful impression which the young ruler feels led to repentance and reformation instead of anger and threata, Public the man who struck Billy Patterson is largely supplanted by the universal longing to know who it was that punctured the Baron Sackville.
