4 - THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D.C.. SATURDAY, MARCH 16, 1889—-TWELVE PAGES, THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: saTURDAY March 16, 1889, THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local ‘Cireulation of any Newspaper in the Werld. apd ae en Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published tm Washington. rennet In one respect President Harrison has already taken « long step in advance of his predeces- sors, He believes in home rule in the territo- ries, and lives squarely up to his convictions. Probably there is no man in public life to-day who has had a fuller experience in the matters of territorial government as related to the general government than he. Few men have ever come so fully im contact with the people of all clases in the territories and have bad such abundant opportunity to know whet they want or what they need. In consequence his opinions and sympathies are all on the side of the people in the territors and he is determined that they shall enjoy a government in consonance with the fundamental principles of representative self-government so fur se that is possible. In- stead of using the patronage of the territories ws rewards aud gifts favorites he has selected the best men to be had from among the people whom they are to This is a notable reform, a which the District feels a direct and speci terest. See Aweek ago Friday an event took place so simply and so quietly that it has fuiled to re- | ceive proper recognition. Let the hands of the eloek be put back for awhile until we can men- tion the fact to the people of New York. They are just now esiuding on tip-toe looking down the bay for the coming of | St. Patrick's day and the bounding shad, But here in Washington, while we shall enjoy St. Patrick's blessed anniversary, we have hud our lives sweetened and enriched for a whole week | and more by the presence of the beautiful, sieck, Siabaster-bellied shad. And this is as it should be, That noble fish by some inscrutable law of his being is seized every March with an uncontrollable desire to reach fresh waters on the American continent, Myriads of milli for weeks plow the dark, un- fathomed billows of old ocean in their mad journey shoreward, It ia here in the majestic tawny Potomac that they choose to make their first appearance.

Of course when the water supply is increased, the local Water takers will pay their share of the cost of iuerease. But how the nation can bring itself to exact from them the cost of its own blunders ina work originally undertaken for the gov- erument, not for the District, and by which the latter does not profit, passes understanding, — + It appears that an enrollment of District militia is authorized by law without an appro- Priation of the money to pay the expenses. In the same way the Police Court came within an inch of being supplied with « jury without any Provision for the expenses counected there- with. The law and the appropriation need to be as inseparable as the old flag and an appro- Priation are popularly supposed to be. —- A peculiar decision bas been reached by & Jower coart in aunty, N.Y., in a liquor Case. which if sustained in the courts above will serve as & good substitute for prohibitory liquor laws. A suloon keeper sold liquor to a man Giready intoxicated, and in his drunken craze | shot ond killed three men. The widow of | One of them sued the saloon keeper for $5,000 | damages for the low of ber husband. The jury found for the plaintiff, giving her about a quar- ter of the damages asked. Other suits will fol- Jow this one. The saloon r endeavored to prove that he was not responsible for the drunken man's intoxication, and that he bad bought liquor elsewhere. But the court held that one glass was enough to establish re- sponsibility fur the condition of the drunken han. Tf the result in the Kennington election yes- terday could be even approximately attained in cne-fourth the conservative constituencies in Eagiand, Gladstone would be premier forth- with. Beaufoy, the liberal candidate, has been elected in the Kennington division by a majority of 639 votes, where Davis, the conservative, who resigned, was elected with a majority of 430 two years « Thus the Pigott affair and the groundswell of sympathy for Ireland may be credited with a change of over a thousand votes in this small voting division, and that, too, where the tots! vote increased twenty-five per cent. The meaning of the victory is unmistak- able and the cousequeuces will not be long in Cums. ee A path leading im the right direction bas DRAPERY NEIS KANGING FROM el NEW Back AND, WORED LA TOSCA USSIAN SILK S FROM $1 ELEGANT BLACK ©D SILK i To #10 IN BLACK DIRECTOIRE SAND GRENADINES.

Customers who know and appreciate the ad- vantage of so doing, sclect their Wash Dresses before their Spring Woolens,and bave them amade up and hung away ready for instant use, There are two or three reasons for this; the ressmakers are not usually rushed with orders; and many ladies make their own Wash Dresses during Lent; and last but not least the assort- ment at this time is such that a poor selection is out of the question.
