4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON WEDNESDAY = CROSKY S. NOVES.................. Editor. = INE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Cirealation of any Newspaper in the World. ard as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published Im Washington. Mr. Daniel, in his speech last evening in re- sponse to the toast of “the Senate,” took pains to say that, when passing upon the President's nominations for office, the upper house “does not infringes on his prerogatives or transcend its own when it differs from him.” That ia trae, It is noteworthy, however, that the Pres! dent is required, when he differs in judgment from Congress on the merits of a bill which it has passed, to spread his reasons on the record, so that any future action in the premises may be taken with these in full view, and that the country may have the meansof forming itsown judgmenton the issue between them. Nosuch re- quirement is forced upon either house of Con- gress by the Constitution; but the House of Representatives does all its debating openly, and reaches its conclusions by processes plainly exposed to popular criticism, and a proper sense of its own duty would impelthe Senate to follow suit. What would be thought of a Presi- dent who, in vetoing an act originating with the Senate, should send back to that body such ® message as, “Your bill is not approved; reason—I don't like it?” And yet that is prac- tically the equivalent of what the Senate does when, in secret session, it dissects and rejects acandidate nominated by the President after thoughtful consideration. It does not actually “infringe upon his prerogatives or transcend ita own,” judged by the strict letter of the law, but from any equitable point of view it To Tu Srar Reavezs: One of those apectal sale surprises of the Palais Royal, that cause the public to wonder and business men to ponder, is now taking place.

ALL MEN KNOW THE “C. & G.” Who is not familiar with the reputation of the cele- brated “C. & G." French Balbriggan Underwear. The superior fitting qualities, the silk-like appearance, the neatness and perfection of finish are such that at every international exhibition it has been adjudged the peer of its fellows. The “0. & G.” Underwear has received prize medals at all exhibitions of note, 2 The Palais Royal ofers the “C.and G." Balbriggan Shirts and Drawers for this sale at 9c. The faney Striped Balbriggan Underwear is also in puts an affront upon him and upon the people, which the framers of the Constitution certainly had not in mind when they entrusted the Sen- ate with the power to place acheck upon the ex- ecutive. It is to be hoped that Mr. Daniel will be found among the hardest workers next ses- sion for a rule to thr»w open the doors of the Senate chamber and let the people enjoy the same freedom of vision and judgment there that they exercise in the White House. ———$—$— - = If any one wishes to study for himself the question whether the morning or the evening paper is the better vehicle of news, let him note what each bas accomplished during this centennial week. Take Monday, for instance. It was the evening paper which published the first account of the departure of the President's party from Washington, of their welcome at the various towns along the route, of their ar- rival at New York, and of the festivities in which they participated there while daylight lasted. It also gave a brief synopsia, in advance, of the performances of the evening, which needed only a little filling in and a change of pses to fit it for the columns of the next day's ning press contained a : s services, the public speech-maki the’ procession, leaving only the less im snt banquet, at which the orators were jaded with the day's fatigues, to be reaped by its morning cotemporaries, As we live now, the day’s doings ere well over by the hour the | e of an afternoon news- paper is lifted from the galley into the form; and the citizen who employs hia evening lei- | sure in reading the quickly-prepared chronicle has the edge so taken off his appetite that the cold rehash offered him the next morning has nothing in it seductive to his palate, a Chauncey M. Depew has shown that as a pub- fie speaker he can rise to the occasion, no mat- ter how lofty a flight may be demanded. As a railroad man he talks business very effectively; as an after-dinner speaker he is witty and his rentences are short, bright, and pointed; and asa centennial orator he displays the states- | men’s wealth of information and breadth of | view and a mastery of English which fairly en- ch to be called eloquent. ————— sis. nssdbaratncorinss te The Boston Givbe has made a very good cen- tennial hit by reproducing jin fac simile a Mas- of 1789, a3 a supplement to | its own issue of yesterday, and calling the attention of readers to it as an illustration of the improvement of the American newspaper | In no department of ivity have larger strides been taken than in journalism, for everything has been | made tributary to it, Electricity and steam e wrought their greatest wonders in this | field. and the inv: have in their turn | received a double benefit from the agency | which they have helped to build | up, the newspaper having kept them informed of the progress of work in their sev- eral domains all over the world, and of what the people were still demanding, and also adver- tised the products of their genius and created a market for them, The Centinel of October 23, publishes as its “latest foreign intelligence” mail advices dated Angust 25. The Globe of April $0 contains a record of events in Lon- don, Berlin, and Madrid up to midnight of the 29th. No more striking example could be found than this of what a change a century has wrought in journalism. a A discovery made and promulgated by a bishop ought to be a good oue, every time. Bishop Lyman of North Carolina has found thet peanuts, fresh roasted in the shell and eaten shortly before going to bed, have won- derfal effect as a preventive of insomnia, ‘This will be good news to a large number of interested Americans, who love peanuts in spite of their dem cratic associations, but who desist from eating them on the supposition that they are breeders of nightmare. To the social scientist, moreover, the bishop's dis- covery is of interest as explanatory of the vast consumption of peanuts at the circus, whose brilliant scenes might otherwise be expected to keep the young brain whirling long after its activity ought to be drowned in slumber. —————— + Justas the reptblic managed to make » highly creditable naval parade on Monday, though its navy is a ghost, so it displayed an impressive military parade yesterday, though ite army isa skeleton. In both cases the vol- Unteers swelled the procession. And so it would be in case of war. While the standing army and navy are insignificant, the military power which can on the instant rise and stand im the republic's defense is immense. — In showing yesterday to what extent and in what manner the cut of the face of Eliza Fos- fer aided in the identification of the murdered woman Tag Stax did not conceal in the least the fact that the detectives were working on a direct clue independently of that identification, and that the credit of solving the mystery be- longs to them. Our nerve-shaken cotemporary, which has qualified itself by the contemplation of its own cuts to appreciate, shiveringly, the ghastly in art, expresses the unwarrantable opinion that the evening papers would have published the Foster cut even if the purpose ‘and prospect of aiding in the identification of the murdered woman had been lacking, and firmly declares that it will never, no never, at- tempt such # publication.
