FIGHTING FOR THE ‘SEED OF HOUSES AT MODERATE PRICE—ASSESSMENT AND TAXATION. Correspondence of Ta EvENIne Stan. Rockvitie, March 10, 1889, Within the past few days quite a spirited contest bas grown up in regard to the appeint- ment of postmaster at this place- between Messrs. John G. England and Thos. Dawson. A petition in favor of the appointment of Mr, Dawson has been circulated in town, and has received the signatures of many citizens, r~ yablicans and democrats alike.

Gsth in Cincinnati Enquirer. I can see the greatest change in the District of Columbia since I first came here in 1861. Then this District seemed to have no more chance of a continuous independent existence than a cypress under the Venitians when the Turks had called « holy war against it. Though this District had been solemnly set aside at the foundation of the nation the envious worm of state rights had never acceded to its independ- ence. Jefferson himeelf advocated taking beck the Virginia half of the District. About 1839 this was consummated, and the original 10 miles square became merely a fragment of a square in the state of Maryland. Maryland itself endeavored to cut off access to this re- maining part at the outbreak of the rebell- ion. Few v0 ever expected to see the dome of capitol finished, which stood in splinters when finally the’ Union troops reached here by roundabout courses. For sixty years the pro-slavery interests dom- inated the District ee Colembin, which was lo- cated within the pro-slavery section, and yet they never accumulated here over forty thou- sand inhabitants, and the city was a mud-hole, In the intervening twenty-cight rears of north- ern occupation and control this District has be- come the most growing and formidable social fact within the slave-state area.

London Cable in New York Sun. British journalism is to-day being made re- spectable. For many years past alot of news- paper men, remarkable only for their perti- nacity and power in making a noise, have been lamenting, chiefly in the back columns of the provincial press, their lack of legal status, and, more particularly, their inability to place after their names big capital letters indicative of their profession, such as are used by Royal Academicians, th Ropal Geographical society, the institute of British architects, and the like. In 1884 the national association of journalists was formed, and four years latcrit had attained a membership of over 1,000. In September last the great capital-letter question was solemnly discussed in a special conference at Bristol. From the first it was felt that an asso- ciation with over 1,000 members must neces- sarily be a glorious body, deserving at least of corporate dignity. A few daring members ven- tured to question the wisdom of creating a journalistic trades union, but they were howled down, and it was resolved to establish an In- stitute of journalists, the members of which will have the proud privilege of writing M. L. J. after their names. Deep down in the, breasts of the promoters of the scheme lies the hope that the time will come when Queen Victoria, or if her —— be gga to her fathers d day, before the at_great patron of lit- $ Prince of Wales, wil bestow the erature, the additional honor of royal upon the institute, nd Gen members will blossom into the M. ‘The institute was a to- day, and the seal of respectability has been set upon it this yo Be the lord mayor, who has entertained the +4 J.’s and their wives, sisters and sweethearts to cake, wine and music at the Mansion house. As far as can be ascer- tained the primary duty of the institute will be to cultivate the journalistic instinct and im- plant it in bosoms wherein it has not taken root naturally. The capital-letter privilege may be purchased~by the annual subscription of a few dollars. ———_—_-ee—_____. Schools For Young Anarchists. WHAT 18 BEING DQNE IN CHICAGO FOR THE CHIL- DREN OF ANARCHISTS. A mass meeting of Sunday school workers was held at the Congregational church yester- day afternoon, Mr. William Reynolds, of Chi- cago, the president of the last Sunday school in convention and a prominent Sun- day school organizer, made an address. He said that there were in operation in the United States 140,000 Sabbath schools, eniploying the services of 1,300,000 teachers, and with an en- roliment of 10,000,000 pupils. No such evan- gelizing agency as this, he said, had ever been set at work in the world. It had increased 50 per cent in quantity in the last twelve years. In his own home, in Chicago, he said there were four anarchist Sunday schools with 2,000 scholars. One of these was Polish, and a friend of his who understood that language, went — a cog 4 eae A found t they ta it three things—that there was no God that’ the Bible was a lie, and that all property should be in common. The anarchists we been obliged to start these schools to counteract the influence of Christian Sunday schools on their children. In a Chicago bank there was placed now $250,000 to the credit of D. L. Moody, the evan- gelist.. One business man had given his check for $160,000, unother $25,000 and a rich lady bad given $30,000. All this was given to estab- lish @ school to educate teachers for the chil- dren of these dangerous classes, business men of Chicago saw the need, and were willing to give money liberally. Mr. Moody will go next month to organize that school. Mr. Reynolds said there were still needed 150,000 more Sunday sc! more teachers to instruct the 11,000,900 youths of the somes who are still outside of Sunday In Old William’s Memory. Berlin Special Cable to Philadelphia Press, March 9. To-day is the anniversary of the death of Emperor William, and the occasion is being ob- served by memorial services and in other hools, with 1,500,000 | - THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C., ippu Tib showed his intellectual acuteness in his defense of slavery. ‘White men” he said, “have very incorrect ideas of our man- ners and customs. They have the effrontery to Pippose to abolish at onee in other lands insti- tions which ge recently flourished in their own. Iam told that in a big country called Russia, some years ago, nearly all common people were slaves, and great misery has be- fallea them since they became their own mas- rs, “What is the difference between a slave and aservant? The servant is free and may leave his master when he pleases. So may slaves, I have no guards to keep them from deserting me. They are too well content with their lot to run away, If I were unjust to them, perha) they might flee. But how would that help them? ey would bow fall once more into the power of their equals. to be sold again, to be maltreated, to be killed, — , or to toil, very likely twice as hard as they did before. “You say it is immoral to own slaves; that slavery debases men and puts them on a level with cattle. Noy, it does not debase a negro to exchange the abominable yoke of a negro tyrant for the pretecting care of an Arab mas- ter, whose religion commands him to be be- nevolent and just. You say the negroes are our bretheren. Well, we treat them quite fraternally, since we raise our children with theirs. We are kinder to them than you are witn your lackeys. I would not dare treat anegroas I have seen white travelers treat their white servants. “If we buy men it is only because they are offered to us, and we cannot procure labor in any other way; and I am sure it is better for tribal enemies, who kill or further degrade them. If you call it immoral to compel men to work for their bread, men who would rather steal it than win it honorably, I would like to ask on what basis your morality rests. “If all the savages and canibals of Africa could be reduced to slavery their children would some day constitute nations, and would bless us for lifting them out of a state of sav- agery. The slave trade exists everywhere in the interior, and the African himself does not wish to suppress it. He would sell himself if he were emancipated. Freedom for him means nothing more than license to steal, to kill, to get drunk. You come here with your theories ‘om Europe, but I tell you the facts as they exist in Africa.” Lieut. Becker says the Arabs in the lake re- gions no longer send out slave-stealing expedi- tions, but only buy the slaves that are brought | to their markets, We know, however, that they stimulate slave hunting and all its horrors by the large markets for slaves which they main- tain. Tippu Tib did not speak of the inhuman and murderous aspects of the slave trade. It must be admitted, however, that in Africa there is force in some of his arguments, Becker says: “Between the happy, faithful, and de- voted slaves of Tippu Tib, and the wretched men slayers and cattle thieves we meet here in a free condition, no comparison can be made.” ‘The fact that this same Tippu Tib is now in the service of a white government, and subsi- dized for the express purpose of stopping slave raids and compelling his Arab brethren to sub- mit to the new régime introduced from Euro} is not so strange a8 it appears, This powerful ‘son is @ consistent ‘Tippu Tib man every ime. His chief interest is ivory, and the great cost of sending tusks by porters from Congo to Zanzibar has cut sadly into his profits. He needs the Congo route to the sea, and he can- not get it without co-operating with the whites. For this reason he promised to stop slave raid- ing and to restore order in the Stanley Falls district, and he has done it. si: amino A Philosopher With a Wooden Leg. From the Chicago Journal. “Until I grew a wooden leg myself,” said @ retired warrior marching along State street, “I never knew how many of my fel- low-mortals enjoyed a similar experience. Now, more than half the fun I have in life I get from looking out for other fellows’ game legs and arms, and eyes and teeth. I know two fellows that have false noses, and about a couple of dozen that have chaney-alley eyes, But that’s nothin’. Sure I hear that over in Paris the surgeons can take a baby’s face and change ev feature in it until its own mother would not know her offspring.

A small boy was calling the other day on one of his school friends, and fell into conversa- tion with the mother of the latter, He was led to remark that it was getting very hard to tell, from the places in which people live, whether they are entitled to social consideration or not. Of course, this is not the way in which he put it, but this is what it came to. “Now, there is Blank street,” he said, ‘you wouldn’t think anybody that lives on Blank street was much, would® you? But there’s Mr. T., he lives there.” “Andis Mr. T. much?” she asked, not unwill- ing to draw him out. “Mr. T.?” he repeated, with the air of one who is overwhelmed with astonishment that so ——_ @ fact eens ore ean es o4 edge of anybody. “I should think was!

New York Sun London Cable, King Milan of Servia has wound up a singu- larly turgid, ribald, shameless, and erotic reign by an exhibition of rank and slippery coward- ice, After tormenting Europe for years with his enigmatcal vagaries, he has clapped the climax of his crimes by rendering up his thirteen-year- old son to his enemies, There is no luck in thirteen, The ex-king’s most cogent reason for abdicating his throne would seem to be that his back fair is falling out. He withstood the proddings of Austria, the affronts of Kussia, the antagonism of his people, the sarcasm of the queen whom he had put away from him, and the jibes and jeers of all Europe, but when his hair grew thin it was too much. He wrote to a friendin Vienna: e body knows what Isuffer. I have turned gray and my hair is parting from me. I suffer terribly from nervousness.” The question was whether the king should stand by his son and lose his hair, or renounce his son and kingdom in order fo retain his hirsute hatch, Milan deserted his country at a critical hour. Russia’s victory is notable and distinct. Alex- ander of Bulgaria went first, and now it is the king of Servia. The next victim of the im- le and tireless diplomacy at St. Peters- urg will be Charles of Roumania, For years the life of King Milan has been one of profligacy and violent excesses. Hé shared with Prince Rudolf the honor of being the most dissolute man in Europe, and the violent death of the crown prince of Austria at the culmina- tion of a career of debauchery undoubtedly affected the king of Servis. Milan leaves his throne to go off with the heavy-featured but majestic-looking Mme. Christich, She has a lot of ae. from her father, who is a banker in Constantinople. The pair will settle down in some quiet spot in Greece, . There ise Mr. Christich, but he is of the suadows, a nebulous and misty character, and that part of him which has a tangible existence is understood to be quite ready for a divorce. A Srrancz Marapy at Fort Warye.—A strange malady has seized the children of Mr. Rush, at Fort Wayne, Ind. About a week ago three children, whose ages range from six to twelve years, were seized with violent par- oxysms. They raved like maniacs and frothed at the mouth as if afflicted with hydrophobia, Four doctors were called in turn and cannot say what ails the sufferers. The children have been locked in separate rooms, and at regular intervals they go into violent convulsions re- wiring two or three persons to restrain them, ‘heir cries can be heard for blocks around. ‘The little ones have grown worse, and fearing their self-destruction and danger to attendants they were removed to the St. Joseph hospital.
