t THE EVENING STAR. ~ WASHINGTON CROSBY S. NOYES.. THE BYENING STAR has tne fallest Lecal Cirenlation of any Newspaper in the Werld, and as an Advertising Medium is werth more than all the other papers pubussed In Wasbington. eee Kew York Office Room 93, Tribune Building. There is no personal hostility to Mr. Tanner involved in the contention that he should not be xppointed District recorder of deeds, The strong objections against such an appointment would apply to any candidate claiming citizen- ship in a state, and should be as weighty with such of his friends as are amenable to reason as with his onemies. The principle that purely local offices should be filled by local eppointments figures in tho national Political platforms and in the outlining of policies by politicai leaders, and is conceded to be sound and just by every student of the American system of government. There never was an office more purely local than that of District recorder of deeds. He performs certain duties for the property-owners of the community and receives from them certain fees for his services. The national govern- ment does not pay him one cent. It selects him, fixes the amount of his compensation and fastens him upon the property owners, The national lawmakers retain the fees allowed him at a figure which causes him to collect from the helpless property owners for merely routine services a larger compensation than the mation pays to a Senator, a Representative, a Vice President or a Justice of the Supreme Court, The money thus wrung from the com- munity in excessive fees has been used as & political bribe, as @ reward for partisan services rendered or as an encouragement for services to come; and it is now proposed to make the samo use of it again. A republican Senate rejected Mr. Cleveland's nomination of Mr. Matthews of Albany for this office expressly on the ground that it belonged to a citizen of the District. It yielded and confirmed another outsider, Mr. Trotter of Hyde Park, only when Mr. Cleve- land had indicated that he intended to follow the line of appointments upon which he had en- tered, if the Senate continued to reject, until every colored democrat in the republic had en- joyed a taste of the recordership pap-dish. The present administration has applied the home- rule principle in the territories and the Dis- trict, and bas promised to apply it, and will un- doubtedly do so, in the District appointments yet to be made. Mr. Tanner's grievances and claims cut no figure in the matter whatever. ‘The District property owners who are com- pelled by the nation to pay to the imported Mr. ‘Trotter of Hyde Park a smail fortune every month, merely because Mr. Cleve- land desired to indicate that the lines of colored democrats would fall in pleasant places, and who resent this excessive and misapplied as- sessment as an extortion and an outrage, haye been promised relief in the matter. The sub- stitution of imported Mr. Tanner for imported Mr. Trotter would be a mockery. Tue Star wishes Mr. Tanuer better than to desire him to place himself in the regard of this community by the side of Mr. Trotter through a successful effort to secure an office which cannot be obtained except by violation of political pledges, and of good faith, and a disregard of the dictates of justice and sound judgment on the part of the appointing power. $$ + —_____ The representatives of American electric light companies who have been shutting their eyes to the numerous accidental deaths from overhead electric wires and cooly contend- ing that electricity will not kill criminals are outdone by Mr. Preece, the English electrician. This expert has perceived the absurdity of claiming that what kills the average cittzen in case of accidental contact will not kill a crim- inal when deliberately applied in a manner to vastly increase its deadliness, so he waves aside as fabrications the stories of such accidental deaths, He says that “the sensational reports published in the newspapers about people being killed by shocks from electric wires had, upon investigation, been found to be nonsense.” The American electric companies ought to import Mr. Preece as an auxiliary defender, without a thought of the expense involved. His enthusiasm is beautiful, and his method of argument, like that of Mr. Podsnap, is unan- THE EVENING STAR: A Sonensz For You.

Judge Finletter sentenced the offi- cial, representing the company in the matter, to six months in jail. The fence came down in twenty-four hours, Things are managed dif- ferently in this city. Railroad obstructions of the streets are more numerous and more seri- ous than in Philade!phia, but on the rare occa- sions when the railroads are called to account in our courts some overworked. underpaid em- ploye is selected as the company’s scapegoat, and if the court, is finally forced to the conelu- sion that railroads are not, theoretically at least, above the law in Washington, he merely imposes some light fine and through sympathy with the depeu:tent family of the poor scape- goat who bears the burden of the sins of the railroad he perhaps suspends sentence. Asa result railroad obstructions flourish exceed- ingly at the capital. $$ New York and Chicago might getup a friendly contest between the memorial arch fund and the Cronin jury. It would bea slow race for the world’s i's championship. $$ Mr. Charles A. Dana sailed for Europe last week. As Mr. Dana is chairman of the com- mittee appointed to select a site for the exposi- tion which New York talks of holding in 1392, and as no suitable place for it has been or can be found in that city, the suspicion is enter- tained that the veteran editor has gone to Paris to make arrangements to hold it there. If the spacious buildings now standing in the French capital and the exhibits contained therein can be secured on favorable terms, together with the capable French management, New York will doubtless be able to make a very credit- able show, without drawing too heavily on the pockets of her millionaires, which seems to be the great point in view. —— Fifty years ago the fastest sailing vessels in the world were of the model styled the “Balti- more clipper.” The swift new cruiser Balti- maore brings the name to the front again. $$ Asa change in the rules of the House will be one of the great questions of interest in the next Congress, Candidate John L. Sullivan wishes to put himself on record as favoring those which have been framed by the Marquis of Queeusberry. —— The Australian ballot system received o Practical test in the elections at Minneapolis last week and worked smoothly and success- fully. The New Jersey republican platform of yesterday declares in favor of this system. Tho movement for an improvement of existing elec- tion methods, which bas gained great headway in a number of the states, seems to have set- tled upen the advocacy of the Australian plan, with its secret, separate voting of ballots printed by the state. ee Although the cabbage crop this season is said to have surpassed all expectations, there is no hunt as yet of a fallin the price of two-for-e- ceut “Havenas.” SSS Porrzzy, PORCELAIN: AND GLASS WARE.
