THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: SATURDAY. April 20, 1889, Editor, CROSBY S. NOYES. QHE EVENING STAR has fullest Local Cireulation of any Newspaper in the World. and os Advertising Medium is worth | mere than other papers published ip Washington. Before the next isne of Tar Stan the first | heat of the great race into Okiahoma will be | run andthe filing of claims and the shooting | of rival claimants will have begun. The settl ment of Oklahoma is unique. Reservations have been thrown open to settlement before and | settlers have poured in, mineral discoveries | have been made and adventurers ha swarmed to the scene of rich finds but mo stretch of public land, not | boasting ascertained mineral wealth, has ever { attracted so greata multitude of claimants in proportion to the amount of land to be oceu- pied, orso large a percentage of the adventurous, speculative or desperate element in company | with genuine farmers and business men. And in no other case has the length of notice of the opening of the land and exclusion prior to that date fringed the reservation to be opened with anxious thousands, more by far than can be supplied with claims, ready and anxious torace | and fight for land at the given signal. The scenes in Oklahoma on Monday will furnish a earions and novel study in the making of states, The same experiences may possibly be re- r in the opening to settlement of the “Cherokee Outlet,” the purchase of which from the Indians is to be negotiated by the commis- ers recently appointed. The overflow of labora settlement, the disappointed and the will turn to these lands, and when time of opening approaches they be joined by other thousands from east.

If all the reports are true, there must have been a good many deaths by drowning to open the tragic record of the colony's inf The worst is yet to be looked for, a the whisky wagons begin their travels, and settlers of naturally peaceful dispositions are wrought to an artificial frenzy in defence of rights which are supposed to be threatened, or to the assertion of authority which does not belong to them. — + The wind lass workers in the Pittsburg district have done a wise thing in co-operating with their employers to get skilled labor from Europe in order to open new works, The men | already in this country had ¥ of work, and; imstead of acting on the dog-in-the- manger policy, they lent sach aid as their labor unions could to procure importations of fresh blood where it was needed.

Mr. Erwin's proper course would, therefore, have been to drive his enemy out of ia aie | by regular legal process. ——+ Baltimore is proud of the fact that she has surface-drainage of sewerage. and rather pities New York and other cities with underground sewerage. whose people, she regrets to note, are exposed to sewer-gas, diphtheria and other ills too numerous to mention. The Baltimore Anwrican, arguing in this vein, says: “In a city like oar own, where copious rains and open drains perform the work. for which other less fortunate commercial centers are obliged to adopt an extensi sewerage system, it is positively criminal to order the building of a single sewer that can be avoided by any plausible device.” According to the Baltimore theory it is better that the sewerage shouid be conducted through the open streets, where all citizens may and must sniff the odors, than that a few should saffer from inhaling unconsciously the gases from the same sewerage conducted through underground pipes. If an occasional Balti- morean is drowned in the torrents which some- times characterize the surface-drainage system of that city he falls a victim, presumably, to the progressive ideas of advanced civilization. e underground = THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON a, D.C., SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1889-TWELVE PAGES.

Buthow? Wehave beefi experimenting for twenty years, and have at last secured an apparatus that is sure. It has been an easy matter to destroy the moth in either the worm or miller form, but to de- stroy the eg has been the difficulty. Our Moth Ap- paratus will do it, and never fails. It makes no differ. ence in what stage of its existence, nor whether in Carpets, Furs, Clothing or Furniture, Anything we can get into our Apparatus (it is 15 feet square and 10 feet high), we euarantee to kill all the moths or insects of any kind thatmay be in it without the slightest damage to the finest fabrics or furniture. This Ap- Paratus has been in use in New York city for over 25 years. and has received recommendations from many noted people, whose names are published in our cir- culars, Write or call for particulars, TO KEEP THE MOTH OUT. In order to keep the moth out it is necessary, first, to kill it in its different forms by the above method; then, if clothing, pack it in a Cedar Chest, a Mothaline Bag, Mothaline Cloth, or Moth Paper. If Furniture, have slip covers made of the Mothaline Cloth, or if you have slip covers put stripes of the Moth Paper about under the covers. If Carpets, lay stripes of Moth Paper or Mothaline Cloth about the edges of the room. If carpet is on the floor, if taken up, pack it in either of them. The Mothaline Cloth has a great advantage over the Moth Paper, as it is tough and strong and will last for years, We have all the above preventives for sale at lowest market prices, SLIP OR LOOSE COVERS FOR FURNITURE.

And that's the kind we've got—TIE BE: It’s only a few short years since nothing but the very commonest of weaves, cut and made up in the mostslip-shod fashion, were offered as the highest product of ready-made clothing. Is it any wonder that there wasastrong prejudice against buying and wearing what was then called “shop stuff?” Here's the best illustration of the evolution of trade: Now, fabrics that were heretofore considered far too fine and expensive, have been placed in | the hands of artists whose superiors do not live. What they have accomplished is wonderful. ‘They have turned the tide of public opinion in favor of ready-made clothing. THAT IS SUCH CLOTHING AS WE OFFER. ‘The same confidence is placed in the recom- mendations we give a suit—the same reliance on our judyment as to fit, style, eic., as was the wont in the palmy days of merchant tail- oring, and so perfect is the result that a gentleman may step into our store, make a complete change at amoment’s notice leaving in exchange buta fvir consideration in comparison to the exorbitant charges made by the “old- liners,"twhen he was compelled to anticipate his needs by many days and suffer the annoyance consequent upon repeated visits.

WOODWARD & LOTHROP, Cor. 11th and F sts, n.w. =——_—= ‘The editor of @ northern newspaper writes the PALAIS ROYAL proprietor that his views of advertis- ‘ing would be an interesting item for publication. Since an insight is given into the methods adapted by the Palais Royal proprietor his sdvertising man takes the liberty of publishing the reply without special permission: 1117 PENNSYLVANIA AVENTE, WasuixeTox, D.C. Youask, does advertising pay? ‘What avails a gold mine if undiscovered? What avail shelves stocked with goods of superior quality and variety if not generally known to the public. To advertise is not merely advisable, it is @ positive necessity, and that form of advertisement that reaches the greatest numbers at the lowest cost is dudicious advertising; therefore, it is apparent that economical advertising is merely a matter of caleu- | lation, As 'tis poor economy to occupy a store at low rental inn undesirable locality, so "tis foolish to calculate that low-priced advertisements are always cheap. In my line of business the methods usually adopted are dodgers, circulars by mail, special sales, ie, the quoting of actual cost prices for certain articles for specified days, and newspaper advertising, In my twelve years of business experience as pro- Prietor of the Palais Royal Ihave tried all methods, and have long since discontinued “dodgers” and cir- culars by mail. Ideem them low-priced but extrava- gant advertisements. The “Special Sales"—the sell- ing of goods at wholesale prices—is a method, I think® that pays, Iwould illustrate witha Biblical quota- tion, “Cast thy bread on the waters,” etc, Lastly, hewspaper advertisements, Newspaper advertising is pre-eminently the economical form of reaching the multitude, On thissure foundation has been built the Palais Royal. Toattemptto build ups business without newspaper advertising is to attempt to build without s foundation. The press is as mibty and as necessary in business asin politics, religion, science or art Yours, A.
