4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: tain a copy of their manuseriyts. a Anonymous communications are not read {m this offlee. It is therefore usoless to send them. ——-—__ The talk about the possible organization of two houses of representatives in the fifty-first congress is, of course, a talk about possibilities purely.” There is no likelihood that such a thing would happen, since neither party, no matter how close the vote, would be willing to accept the responsibility of blocking legisla- tion for s whole session by making « fight un- Jess the yrovocation were beyond all prece- dent. But, should such a case arise, into what a cheerful muddle everything would be thrown! ‘With its tenure dependent upon a narrow ma- Jority of two, or three, or » half-dozen, the party in possession could not afford to have its members fall ill, or go away to bury their dead, ot absent themselves on any other pretext whatever, lest the seceding party, through one of its trusted representatives present at every meeting, should raise the point of “no quorum” and nullify the day's proceedings; and the members who did attend with the utmost regu- larity could not expel this disturber, or any of the persistent absentees, because it would take two-thirds of the whole membership of the ‘House to do that. Neither could the house de Sacto or the house de jure, even if permitted to do business, pass anything over the veto of the President, who would thus become vested with absolute suthority in legislation, It would be af interesting situation. certainly, for those ‘who were on the outside and could study it at 8 safe distance; but the men who had any hand im bringing it about might as well bid a long farewell to their most cherished hopes of pre- ferment in public life, for there are certain kinds of folly which the people, short as their memories proverbially are, do not forget ina Some of the foreigners who have been in- Yeigied by false pretenses into servitude to the Chesapeake bay oyster dredgers are trying to obtain satisfaction from the New York agents through whom the dredgers gained control of them, If these New Yorkers were aware of the service for which the immigrants were pro_ Cured they deserve severe punishment for a deception which has exposed its victims to in- human cruelty. But the principal offenders are the dredgers themselves, who, though they kidnap their laborers or lure them into service by false promises, though they subject them to shocking cruelty, though they break openly and persistently the laws, human and divine, which protect property rights, and though they resist with violence and to the point of death the constituted authorities for the enforcement of law, are left un punished. The reflection that within a short distance of the capital of the Amer- fean republic men are forced by violence or tricked by lies into acondition of absolute and ertel slavery during the season of the year in which the labors of their captivity ean be made profitable, and that their captors, the modern revivers of the slave trade, add to their exploits, and resist successfully with powder and shot the efforts of a sovereign state to compel obedience to its laws, gives one # curious sensation, as if some earlier century had been substituted suddenly for the nine- teemth, with its boasted civilization, human freedom and reign of law. ———— Significance is attached to vesterday’s edi- torial in the Indianapolis Journal concerning ¢ivilservice reform. The belief at Indianap- lis is that Private Secretary Halford wrote it, and that the views are those of Gen. Harrison, ‘The editorial is a disapproval of the doctrine that “to the victors belong the spoils,” and a ‘warning to the republicans who expect a clean sweep of the offices. The Journal says: “If there is any honesty in politics the republican party is pledged to use discrimination in re- _——$———— ‘The latest surplus-reduction scheme is that telegraphed from Montreal, according to the terms of which President Harrison will dispose of the surplus outright in the purchase of Canads. There are indications that the people of Canada are looking more favorably every day upon the suggestion of annexation to the ‘United States, and that a reciprocal feeling is side of the border; and if takes place the United States will assume the Canadian indebtedness, is still strong opposition to annexa- on both sides of the border, and there is hardly a remote possibility of the happening such an event in Harrison's presidential term. When annetation does take place it will Be the deliberate act of the two peoples. There ‘will be no purchase of Canada with a treasury surplus by » president, $e ‘Some of the newspapers which have been in- terviewing the Langtry family take the trouble fo assert that Mr. Langtry, the Lily's husband, dose not want a divorce. Of course he doesn’t. Why should he want to be divorced froma i g creatare who is coining money at the yate of a bundred thousand or so every year, of which he gets a comfortable slice? Besides, it isn’t Mr. Langtry, as far as any one knows, who wants to marry somebody cise, _——————— ‘Mr. Powderly has re-elected himself general master workman and chosen his new cabi- and received his commission for a trip and arranged things generally to his fm the order of the Knights of important thing he has list of personal activ- Paying all the expenses ‘out of his own pocket; but it must ‘eredit that he has done his share refusing to accept but $3,000 of for his salary for the ‘That is a good deal of a conces- 3 [i Hy g s year. : un cl ? : } Tue Pas Roxas “Ozexme- ‘Let the past speak for the present, and then noex- planation is needed ELEVENTE An- ferred to residents for explanation.
