THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: ‘THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. The opposition in the House to the six-million plan for the congressional library intrenched itself entirely behind technical advantages. The sense of the House is believed to favor that plan. Certainly a wise and liberal judg- ment of the future necessities of the library through a limited period of years would dictate prompt and earnest support of Gen. Casey's second plan. The government is now in the position of a well-to-do householder whose family and belongings have outgrown the old house. He is able to build substan- tially and with a reasonable amount of orna- mentation. At his time of life he wonld be ‘ miserly fool to put up a story-and-a-half struc- ture bare of conveniences and devoid of beauty. The building proposed belongs to the whole country, and must be planned on a scale in proportion to the probable growth of the entire domain in population and the development of the American people in the arts and sciences. At this point few of our pub- Tie men take a broad enough view of American progress. It is a matter not merely of extent, but, as the logicians say, of intent also. We can estimate what the library should be for the population increase of the United States. It is a more difficult com- putation to forecast its needs in order to keep abreast of the intellectual development of our people. The wants of men who use books to-day have multiplied a hundred- fold over those of our fathers fifty years ago. More books are made, more are read every year now in the United States than were made or read in a decade forty years ago. More than this, it must be remembered that this land of ours is a mighty alembie of peoples, many of whom have burst from a condition of ignorance into what is to them an infinite light of knowledge. Intellectual activity is an inevi- table consequence. No man viewing these con- ditions can for a moment forbid by the slight est opposition the reasonable liberality proposed in the more extensive plans for the library. Even those may only meet the requirements of national growth for but half an average lifetime. It is folly to visit upon a generation distant only one or two decades the necessity of doing at equal or greater cost what may be done now under one plan, one work of construction, and for a sum which is really inconsiderable in comparison with the benefits to be secured for the nation. da In a recent suit brought by a boycotted firm of bricklayers and contractors against the bricklayers’ union in Cincinnati, the plaintiffs succeeded in obtaining substantial damages. ‘The charge was that the three hundred or four hundred members of the union had formed an unlawful conspiracy to impoverish the plain- tiffs, and to diminish and destroy their busi- ness by interfering with their workmen, caus- ing them to quit work, and deterring others from entering their employ. The court in in- structing the jury sai “Workmen have the right to organize into unions for the common benefit of their mem- bers, for the purpose of advancing their skill, for mutual charities, and they may bind them. selves by rules. conditions, and bylaws within the scope of such purposes of organization. They may, for their own interest, make rea- sonable regulations as to how and whom they will instruct in the skill of their trade. and the cannot be compelled to teach others against their will. They may persuade others not to enter their trade, they may refuse to work with or instruct others not registered in their unions, and they may. with an honest purpose, refuse to work with men obnoxious to their interests—men expelled for reasons in good faith to them, or with men who refuse to. join them, or to work for any particular employer or contractor. “They have a right to select theiremployers, and they may, in combination, refuse in good faith to work: for any man justly obnoxious to them. They may, with like honest purpose to Promote their good, fix wages and hours of per day, uniform or modified, and they may encourage others to join their order. They may combine for this honest purpose of benefiting their order by encouraging favor- able terms to their employers in the purchase of material, and to procure contracts for such contractors as employ members of their union. “But they become engaged in an illegel en- terprise whenever they to accomplish their p 3s by threats, intimidation. vio- lence, or like molestation, either toward the apprentice, the expelled’ member, the non- union workman, the contractor and the em- ployer, the material man, or the owner who Proposes to make a contract.” Cases of this kind, in which pecuniary dam- ages are sought for boycotting, are not fre- quent, and the principles which apply are fairly stated by the judge. Unlawful conspiracy should be prevented or punished, whether it results in a trust or a boycott. Capitalists and workmen may both advance their interests by whatever combinations they please, but only so far as they do not infringe upon the equal freedom and rights of others, —_—— The refusal of President Carnot to let his ministry resign and his administration go to pieces promises some hope of salvation for France. Had Boulanger’s victory accomplished the downfall of the ministry and gained the opportunity the Boulangists want, the uproar would have begun at once. If Carnot can keep the country quiet until it cools down and devise some way tolet the people think of something besides the man on horseback, he will do for France more than all her generals and armies to increase the national glory. Boulanger in power, with the necessity of forming government and a policy,would be a very different and more dangerous man than he is now. His weak, shallow character, beset by all the incongruous lawless fragments of parties behind him, would soon give way to another commune. oo O'Brien has done credit to his profession in eluding Balfour's police and utilizing his flight to make addresses to his countrymen, He has at last been arrested, but under circum- stances that convert the forms of disgrace into the joys of a great triumph. ee Steadily the wealth of Canada increases, Moore, the Indiana embezzler, is “ over there.” —_—— One month is the time Boulanger’s friends give the government in which to make the blunder that will elect their favorite as succes- sor to Carnot. SUuEEEeeeneee Minnesota is getting tired of her reputation 28a favored spot for pugilistic sporting. For several years past there has been a regular monthly fight in the neighborhood of St. Paul. ‘The legislature this winter is called on to pro- hibit sparring and prize-tighting. —_— Kossuth is rousing Hungaria to another thirst for independence.

THE SOUVENIRS OF THE PALAIS ROYAL OPEN- ING AND WHAT THEY ARE. “Write up the Palais Royal ‘Opening. ” “A matter of Interest to Visitors and Residents,” « An order easily given but not so easily executed. ‘What is an “Opening Day?" What are Souvenirs? Perhaps it is known to most women that “Opening Days” occur at the commencement of a season. Sou- venirs at the “Palais Royal” are the new goods at cost prices. If this were not the twelfth annual mid- winter “opening” one would have little faith in such extravagant promises. It is because such promises have been fulfilled in the past that the Palais Royal _ occasions have come to be a matter of in- terest to visitors and residents, and, therefore, a good news iter, For the convenience of our readers the descriptions are classified under three headings. 1ST, THE MANY TRIPLES that help to make beautiful woman more beautiful; 2D, ONE'S NEW COSTUME and its accessories; 3D, DECORATIONS FOR HOME, show- ing what strides true art has made of late years. THE MANY TRIFLES. Before we start out for the store let us clip from the Palais Royal advertisement the list of Souvenirs, and thus secure an dex to the store. On glancing down the list one notices “Souvenirs for Men,” Sorry, gen- tlemen! This is acolumn for ladies, s0 you must go under the heading of “The Many Trifles.” ‘THE SOUVENIRS FOR MEN. ‘There are the Scarfs in the new Knot, Puff and Four- in-Hand styles. Fifty cents they are marked, but the list says fifty-cent Scarfs in all styles for hie. You will only question, How can they be sold for 50 cents, much less 41c.? Again, how can an Umbrella be war- ranted for one year, recovered free of charge if it splits, and be marked to sell at $2.20, but wait—for the “Opening” the price is $1.98. Look at the handles of Roll Gold and Sterling Silver, and you'll think more than you'll sey about them to the clerk. What you want and what you don’t want, probably, ison the Souvenir List, for there are Rubber Coats, Underwear, Gloves, Handkerchiefs, and what-not mentioned. THE SOUVENIRS FOR LADIES. On your way to the “Charity Ball” this evening you can step in and have a pair of the very long Mousquetaire Gloves fitted to your hand for $2, in- stead of $2.25, thus not only saving 25c. but the trouble of putting them on, which is of more account to many ladies; or, more leisurely to-morrow you may select a pair of the 4-button “Palais Royel” Dressed Kid Gloves to match your street costume in shade,and for $1.35, instead of $1.50. Fans from $1 to Some of waving ostrich plumes, others of rare lace, others of silk ganze with handles of the sweet-scented violet wood. To write one of the finest collections in the country is no exag- geration. The Souvenir List will tell of the reduced Prices, The finest of Linen Handkerchiefs, with pretty seal- loped and embroidered borders, in white and colors are marked but the Souvenir List says ‘“#5e! Linen Handkerchiefs for 20c." Not so much the reduc: tion of five cents, but the remarkable value for 25c. will certainly be noticed. Cheaper handkerchiefs and finer, thousands of them, of Linen, Lace and Silk, A Jewelry Store is here, too. Amber, Tortoise Shell, 14- karat Gold and Enamel Jewelry, and at prices that certainly can't admit of a credit business, And the imitation, at 89c. instead of $1—the regular price—is shown marvelous copies of the real gold and diamond Jewelry. Leather Goods for all purposes. A novelty is the Antelope-Skin Satchel to hold the opera-glass with, also a compartment for handkerchief; #2 instead of 2.25 during the “Opening.” All the Pocket-Books and Card-Cases are also reduced, as a glance at the Souvenir List will make evident. Here also is the “Jane Hading” Veil and a dozen other kinds, Noticeably for cheapness and_prettiness are those with the chenille dots in the dress goods shades; 9c: instead of 15c. during the “Opening” are these. Women’s Neckwear must bean expensive item, for here are handsome Lace Scarfs up to #20. Those of Spanish Lace, think of it—7 feet long are $1.39 1n- stead of the marked price, $1.68. ‘The Silk Windsor Scarfs, in the new colorings, are marked 25¢., but the Souvenir list says 21c, Linen Collars, too, in five shapes at 9c. instead of 12i4e. and all 25c. Rufiling for 21c.; and what a lovely variety there is. Soaps, Perfumes, Toilet Articles, and the thousand and one articles coming under the heading of “Notions” are at special prices during the “Opening.” ONE'S NEW COSTUME. In reply to What hall it de? the display here says come and see! The very latest are Silk-Bordered Di- agonal Serges. The borders vary from 13¢ inch stripes, forming a border 15 inches deep to the 3 inch stripes, making a3-inch border. The new art shades of Old Rose, Fawn, Tan and anew Green will claim attention. ‘These dress patterns are offered during the “Opening” at® . Really superb quality of China Silks, in almost every conceivable shade, at 69c. a yard, in- stead of 75c. A glimpse of spring and summer gleams from the new Challies and Sateens. Lovely new shades of Grayish Greens, Old Rose and Tan. Patterns so large and elaborate that one’s taste needs educating up to the 1889 spring styles Positively bewitching are the new Scotch Zephyr Ginghams; the broad band borders of White Pique artistically enliven the soft neutral tints of the new dress goods, 42 inches wide.

Theelevator takes us there ina twinkling. Once again the new Greens and Blues, the Fawn and other spring-time shades greet one’s eyes; but it's Jerseys: now— called Jerseys, but really ready-made Waists, and in dozens of new and typically Franch styles— Smocked, Pleated, Braided, Puffed, and how perfectly they fit. Why is it these Jerseys always fit, and Waists made to order very often don't? The new Jerseys are more like the tailor-made Waists than the old-time Jer- sey.

While we are on this subject we might as well say a word about Gloves and Neckwear. We've reduced the prices on our Gloves. The grades we've been selling at $2.50—Fisk, Clark & Flage’s best—are now $1.98; and those elegant walking gloves at $1, are now 75c, and our reg- ular*75e. gloves are 48c. The shades are the latest, including the Cavendish Tan—the New York rage. The qualities are superior in each grade. ‘The Neckwear—some more of Fisk, Clark & Fiagg’s inimitable styles—that we've been sell- ing at $2 are now $1.50, and the $1.50 qualities are marked to $1. Just think of it, gentlemen. ‘You'll find an assortment that’s unapproach- able, and patterns that for novelty and unique- ‘ness cannot be duplicated.
