4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: ‘WEDNESDAY ‘March 27. 1980. ‘HE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Ctreulation of any Newspaper in the World. asd as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published tm Washington. —————————————— The political struggle in Rhode Island, pre- Paratory to the election next week for state of- ficers, derives especial interest from the fact that it is expected to determine whether the increase of votes under the new naturalization law is going to help the democratic party as much assome of the leaders of that organization claim. ‘The liquor question is playing an important part in the fight. A large part of the people of the state have reached the conclusion that her experiment in probibition is a failure for some cause or other, and both the democrats and the republicans haye, in their platforms, approved of the resolution of the late general assembly to resubmit the prohibition amendment to popu- lar vote. Everything now turns upon the com- plexion of the assembly to be elected next week. If that body shall repeat the action of its pred- ecessor tho amendment will be re- submitted. Hence new party have arisen, known as the anti-resubmissionists, who will probably draw the bulk of their sup- Port from the republican side, and do more to mix up the situation than any other factor which has yet appeared. The republicans are seeking consolation from the fact that the democrats have a Burchard on the stump, in the person of one Gen. Brennan, who recently made, in a campaign speech, an allusion to the sparseness of the audience, explaining it on the ground that it was Lent, and most of the democrats were probably at church, Some of the Catholics have taken offence % what they deem a disrespectful fling at their church, and a breach appears imminent. With so many parties in the field, and so much strong feeling aroused, the election of next Wednesday will certainly bring out the full vote of the state, whether it shows its division on perma- Rent lines or not. a ——— England loses to-day two of her well-known characters in John Bright and the Duke of Buckingham. Both were useful men in their best days. The one sprang, as it were, from the soil, and worked his way to the front of affairs by persistent agitation in behalf of the rights of the common people and of the op- pressed of all classes; in short, he was the ideal liberal. The other wore a coronet as the de- ascendant of a long line of noble ancestors, and became a leader of the peers through his strong conservative tendencies. Both sat in cabinets and each in his way owed bis success to his own personal efforts. Starting from so widely dif- ferent points, it is odd that in their old age they should have approached each other so nearty. It is only about twenty years ago that Mr. Bright was warning his associates in par- liament of the perils they were inviting by their treatment of Ireland; and a visit which he paid to Ireland was the foregunner and one of the causes of agreat Fenian uprising. At that time it was theDuke of Buckingham’s part to denounce such agitators as Bright as traitors worthy of the hangman's noose. For the last three years, however, the two uien have trained prac- tically im the same company. The duke h labored, in as much as be bas done any work whatever, against the cause of Irish freedom on general principles; the commoner has pro- fessed as great friendship as ever for the Irish People, but condemned what he regarded as the unjustifiable extremities resorted to by the home-rulers under Mr. Gladstone's leadership. Whatever may be said of Mr. Bright's change of attitude. or of his refusal to move forward further with the progressive element of his party, he will always be remembered by pa- triots in this country with respect on account of his resolute defense of the Union during the civil war, when to be a friend of the north meant in England to suffer abuse and contempt. We Americans can afford to credit his latest vagaries rather to the weakness of old age than to any radical change of heart in the once- noted champion of popular libert: ————— + The pneumonia-breeding inauguration weather has been safely passed, and the tide of applicants for office and their “‘inflooence” has reached the flood and is ebbirg. The Presi- dent has escaped the dangers to which his grandfather succumbed. It would be strange if he were not weary and worried from his ex- periences in the first of the presidential ordeals; but he has reason to congratulate himself that the worst of the present test of his endurance is over, that he has passed through it with so little injury, and that he has broken and, to some extent, scattered the host of office-seeR- ers without resort to measures which would bring upon him the individual hostility of every unsuccessful applicant. Even Artemus Ward's “snaiz,” which the genial showman proffered to one of President Harrison's predecessors under similar circumstances, have not been necessary to accomplish the dispersal of the nuultitude, ———— + The willingness shown by the Canadian goy- ernment to renew the fishery licenses to Amer- ican applicants under the modus virenti angure well for the peaceful intents of our northern neighbors, It also indicates a purpose on their part to renew negotiations for atreaty. Witha republican administration to appoint and direct the commission, a republican Senate to consider the treaty Evolved, and a republican House to cast @ consenting vote for the appropriations necessary under it, there ought not to be much trouble in reaching sume definite conclusion as to our fature relations with Canada. The chief difficulty heretofore has grown out of divided partisan interests, and the whole country is now waiting to see how the new powers that be are gving to work to solve this long-standing and tost troublesome problem, ———————.— = From discussion of the advisability of in- creasing the salaries of Senators and Represen- tatives the idea must not be derived that Wash- ington, as compared with the other cities of toe United States, is an extremely expensive y ace in which to live. Exactly the opposite is tae. To those who are accustomed or are wuleg to spend large amounts on luxurious lving and entertainment, the opportunity to "yntinue such expenditures is probably not d-nied. But in no other large American city is great wealth,or a heavy annual outlay for domestic expenses, s0 unessential to comfort aud social position, ———-+——___ , The latest international conference up to date is the one in progress over chess boards iu New York city.

THE VARIETY AND BEAUTY OF THE NEW SPRING JERSEYS. THE “PELERINE” AGAIN TO BE A FAVORITE WITH WOMEN OF FASHION. THE JAUNTY ENGLISH WALKING JACKET. THE FRENCH IDEA OF WHAT A ROBE DE CHAMBRE SHOULD BE. A picturesque copy of the coats worn by the fair maids of Ireland are the Qonnemara and Irish Peasant Ulsters. Gathered on the yoke back and front the cloak falls in folds to the feet. The beauty of these Wraps depends much on the material used; to hang gracefully the cloth must be of pure wool and neither too heavy or light in weight, A cloth manufactured expressly for these ulsters is imported. The trimming is usually of black braid, which is worn at neck snd yoke, These simple but elegant wraps have jumped into popular favor, both abroad and at home. The beaded wraps for spring wear will be the “Pelerine” of Isst season with but slight improve- ment; those with open work knotted silk sleeves being the latest. Perhaps the prettiest of the jaunty English Walk- ing Jackets is the Marie Stuart. Generally of black @iagonal cloth and made by men tailors, these Jackets have that uuostentatious look of wealth and refine- ment that the more gaudy though equally as expen- sive styles often lack. ‘The Marie Stuart is cut double-breasted with double orsingle lapels and buttons diagonally across the chest; the front is loose and back close-fitting. A Berlin was the cry of the French at the commence- ment of the late Franco-German war and even now it is “A Berlin,” but for another purpose. Berlin sup~ plies the Jersey fashions of the world and it is to Ber- lin we are indebted for the/many new and beautiful novelties for the present season. A new and stylish looking Jersey has smocked front and sailor collar, mar- ine blue, of course, enlivened with white band cuffs, white embroidered collar and white fancy stitched smocking. The Blouse Jerseys are shown in a great variety of styles and colors. Some with plaited, others with mnocked, sleeves. Pleated Jerseys have, to an extent, ousted the braided styles. A new and pretty Jersey has narrow and wide plaits at front, the wide plaits With feather stitching. The sailor-waist Jerseys, of red and blue stockinet, with fine white lines, are made up in typical sailor styles and need only a trim figure and pretty face to make them positively bewitching. Paris Tea-Gowns and Robesde Chambre, What au- dacious combination of colors, designs and materials. And yet in good taste, What better prescription for the enre of depressed spirits, irritable busbands, vexatious servants, than one of these bright and cheerful spring-time robes de chambre? Imagine yourself robed in this “Empire” Wrap, and who could be other than agreeable to you? Here itis: A French Challe of White ground, with tiny bunches of flowers in natural colors sprinkled over; the “Empire” front is of Light Blue Surah Silk, the Plaited Sash of Challie finished with White Silk Fringe Ends; the Sleeves, trimmed with ribbons and fringe, are open, and show the lining of blue silk. Here is another of China Silk: White ground with bold but quaint red figures; the front of Red Surah plaited at neck and waist. The open over-slecves show undernesth tight plaited sleeves finished with white cuffs. A beautiful “Directoire” is this: Terra cotta cashmere with front of light blue cashmere; trim- mings of lace and cashmere. And this: an “Empire” robe of old rose Henrietta with front of light blue China sil, Persian band trimming of many but delicate colors runs the entire length and also forms three bands at the bottom of the front. Such isa brief description of some of the novelties that will beon view to-morrow atthe Palais Royal. The pleasure of your presence respectfully requested.
