ChosBY Ss, NOYES.. on 1 == THE EVENING STAR bas the fallest Lecal Cirenlation ofany Newspaper in the Word, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the ether papers published im Washington. = re New York Office: Room 93, Tribune Building. The Cosmopolitan, which since it came into the hands of Mr. John Brisben Walker has been brought into the front ranks of American magazines, publishes in its current number a notable article by Cardinal Gibbons on “The Dignity, Rights and Responsibility of Labor.” The cardinal’s services to the cause of the workingmen'’s organizations in this country, in presenting their side of their perennial con- troversy with organized capital to the Pope with such convincing force a year or two ago, lends especial interest to this article. It used to be common for employers to sneer at the attempts of the employed to establish unions for offence and defence, because so large a share of the laboring class everywhere were in the communion of the Roman Catholic church, and the policy of thecburch was understood to be to discourage such combinations. The effect Of the cardinal’s visit to Rome was to wrest this weapon of menace from the stronger class, and put united labor ona fairer level in ite future relations with united capital. In view of this eminent service, the workingmen whom he befriended would do well to heed his conclu- sions on the subject of strikes. After ¢onsider- ing the wrongs often suffered by the poor at the hands of the rich, he goes on to show that, when the poor become powerful in turn by virtue of banding together in numbers, they owe some obligations to society as well as to them- selves, and should not use their power tyranni- cally simply because they happen to have it. The boycott he condemns as an infringement of personal liberty, and strikes he regards asa measure to be resorted to, like a drastic medi- cine, when every other possible remedy has been tried and failed, ‘heir uniform result, as he shows, is the success of that party which possesses the greater endurance, or whosé means of feeding itself can hold out the longer. It will be a happy day, he thinks, when arbitra~ tion shall take the place of warfare as a means of deciding disputes between capital and labor; for while strikes “are aggressive and destru tive, arbitration is conciliatory and constructive; the result in the former case is determined by the weight of the purse, in the latter by the ‘weight of argument.” a ‘What Vermont 1s preparing to do toward re- pairing her spent forces might very wisely be imitated by a half dozen of her sister com- monwealths, The last legislature authorized acommissioner to devise means for “boom- ing” the state and inducing immigration. ‘the result is a correspondence between the com- missioner and some parties in Sweden which looks to the importation of a number of Swedish colonists, who are to settle upon the farms deserted by native Vermonters, and to try to make a living out of them by pursuing the thrifty methods to which they have been edu- cated. The newcomers will have to be helped at first, as they will be poor people, and the present owners of the land will have to collect their pay by small installments, But even with these preliminary drawbacks, the scheme is un- doubtedly a shrewd one, It can be appreciated especially in this neighborhood, where Virginia and Maryland teem with farms that are going begging for purchasers at very cheap prices. In some of theso cases the land has jain fallow so long as to make it well worth the working. In others, the effect of its use for camping and battle fields during the war has artificially enriched the soil. Eastern farmers, migrating, donot look at these farms, because the west takes such pains to ad- vVertise its attractions that they are drawn into the current always moving in that direction. But what is to prevent the colonization of foreigners in places which we find it impossi- bie to fill up with Americans? The class who offer themselves for such s purpose are, asa rale, industrious and worthy; the idle and vicious herd prefer gathering in the cities. It would be worth millions of dollars to Virginia, to plant upon her many acres of now wasted farming lands a desirable population, even at the cost of making provision through the state treasury for their settlement. It would stimu- late trade; it would eventually lighten taxa- tion; and it would tend to solve race problems which are now very embarrassing. New York's greediness in grabbing for the world’s fair of 1892, after the honor of furnish- ing the site had been conceded by very general consent to Washington, has aroused all the commercial rivals of that city, and several of them have been spurred by New York's candi- dacy into demanding their own selection as the exposition site, But some, notably Baltimore, have tuken the wiser course of concentrating their energies upon the project of securing the selection of the capital, Commercially Wash- ington is the rival of no other city, and the great business cities of the republic, jealous of trade advantages which may accrue to their competitors, will not be jealous of the capital, and can more heartily unite in rendering suc- cessful a world’s fair held at this point than at any other in the United States. The cities which have been thrown from their balance by New York's bad example in the matter would act wisely by imitating the action of Baltimore, Unless they do concentrate their forces in this way New York's dog-in-the-manger policy will be successful, and the United States will have Bo world’s fair of 1892. So many more entertaining topics have Struggled for space in the public thoughts and prints that the dreary Boulanger farce has been allowed to drag itself on to the critical stage almost unobserved. As long as the gen- eral was masquerading in wigs and colored Spectacles on his native heath there was @ glamour of the picturesque about him, and the startling effects he would sometimes produce at the elections where the government was trying #0 hard to crush him awakened a mild sort of interest in the outside world, Bat when it be- came apparent that the government was afraid to do anything serious to him in France, and when, in spite of thie apparent security, he fled to England, the onlookers got tired and began to yawn. The dismal collapse of the Boulanger boom at the pollsa few wocks ago ‘was a fitting precurser of the judgment of the senate court, finding the accused officer guilty on slight evidence of troasonable conspiracy. It Prepared the way, doubtless inspiring the court with the necessary nerve to strike down the once popular idol. ro Fresh evidence is furnished every day that the meaus possessed by the city, through the medium of the police court, of disposing of minor criminal cases, are entirely inadequate, The unjustly accused and those guilty of trivial offences are subjected to undeserved annoy- ances, and the trial, conviction and punishment of the criminals themselves are hampered. Legislation on this subject in the first days of the new Congress is sorely needed. oe The government may be expected to take vigorous measures to prevent the premature occupation of the choice spots of the Sioux reservation by its officials who are sent out to prevent the sottlers from entering. Oklahoma experiences give warning. oe When Daniel Lamont, taking his ease, meets Elijah Halford, hard at work, at Bar Harbor, he doubtless chuckles to think that his sucece sor in office now knows how it is himse! ae To him that hath shali be given; and the Btandard oil company is now bugging itself at the news that the Baker oil fields in Russia are giving out, co Sullivan’s grand jury shows extreme hesi- tency in coming to the serateh. ITs ENGLISH, YOU KNOW. England, with its more temperate climate, is already feeling that Autumn fs near, at least it isso with the women, Autumn costumes are ecen not only in the cities but at seanide and mountain. A few eatly tm- pottations having been received by the Palais Royal brief descriptions will be appreciated by the Star readers: ‘The material is the improved Soft-finish Serge and the colors are new tints of Red, Green, Blue, Brown. Large Plaids and Stripes of undefined patterns, and that Bide-band Suitings will also be worn, is definitely settled, which fs apparent by these English impor- tations. The Best Plaid Suitings ere being offered at 80c. & yard, though » marvelous imitation of them ‘and guaranteed all wool is shown at only 50c. » yard. ‘The Side-band Suitings at 680, s yard are even cheaper when {tis remembered no trimming is required for them.

SOME NEW STOCKINGS. ‘Women's ankles will show when low shoes are worn, ‘20, it could be said, even if they were not seen in the Palais Royal Show Case, that Leather shades and Biack #eem to be fighting for precedence just now. At 4c. & pair Ribbed Lisle Hose, in s half dozen Russet or Leather shades,are in that show case, and Warranted Fast Black Hose, at 35c., or three pairs for 81. Claimed e great bargain are the Fest Bisck Ribbed or Plain Hose for Children and Ladies, The price usualy iees with the site, so the Palais Royal claims an ex- ception in the favor of its pattons by offering all sizes for 25 cents, THIS FOR THE MEN. ‘Whether ‘tis only an advertising dodge or the result ofasieight-of-hand purchase doesn't matter mate- rially to the man who secures s real China Silk Hand- Lecchief of generous aise for only 260.

But seriously, how are your feet? ‘The question is asked because there is an opportunity to supply yourself with comfortable and stylish foot ‘Wear at prices that are obviously low. Curtis & Wheeler make the best Ladies’ Shoes in America, The price rarely varies. $4 instead of 5 is worth profit- ing by. English “Waukenphast” Boots of Gout Skin at $3 instead of $5. The American Goat Skin Boot at 2.40 instead of $4.50, All sizes, too, Isn't it time to think of your feet?
