NOYES... - Editor, THE EVENING STAR bas tne fullest Local ‘Cireuiation of any Newspaper in the W orig, and as an Advertising Diedium is worth more thas all the einer payers pusussed im Washington. ————S Kew York Offes: Room 93, Tribune Building. ——— It has been remarked that the All Americas Congress derives especial importance from the fact that countries not represented in it have east invidious glanees in ita direction. This sug- gestion bas been especially simed at England, France and Germany; but « nearer neighbor, often overlooked, perhaps, for the very reason of her proximity, is reaching out and grasping after trade which ought legitimately to bo re- Served for us, Canada has awakened to the fact that she hasan independent commercial future before her. She has been sending her business envoys, noiselessly but cleverly, into the West Indies, the Bermudas, Brazil, the Argentine Republic and Australia. Steamship lines are to be established, it is rumored, to ply on the eastern waters between Halifax and and St. John aud the West India ports, and on ‘the western waters between Victoria and Syd- mey or Melbourne and some of the ports in (China and Japan. Cables are proposed from Ireland to Canada and from British Columbia to Australia, These are gigantic enterprises for a country to undertake which still retains &@ mere colonial status. But so much British capital is secking investment that possibly these projects may receive the necessary back- ing. ee ‘The prohibitionists in North Daxota claim that the first report of the defeat of their con- stitutional amendment was ill founded, and that they have really carried it by a small ma- jority. Perhaps this news will stimulate the Connecticut probibitionists to fresh efforts. ‘Their final struggle occurs on Monday next.They have had no money with which to conduct their campeign, and the only orator of prominence whom they have been able to secure for their work is ex-Governor St. John of Kansas, who has made nightly speeches for some time under the auspices, not of the prohibition committee proper, but of local temperance societies. To oppose him, one of the richest brewers in Con- neeticut bas imported the ex-editor of a Topeka journal, who has followed Mr. St. John around on his stumping tour, answering his arguments through the columns of the pro- Vincial press. Nobody has any idea that the amendment will succeed, or even approach suecess; but the tactics of the liquor element in carrying on the war by means of editorial utterances in newspapers at so much a line, have aroused @ strong feeling of disgust in some parts of the state where they have been practised, which may lead to a vigorous tem- perance agitation before the next legislature. a Gen. Francis A. Walker struck the keynote of the world’s fuir site question when he asserted, in the Independent, that the exverience of the last few years had proved that the United States are a nation, and hence that the cele- bration of 1892 should be national in the broad- est sense, “The government,” said he, should take the initiative; should decide where, for the best effect, the principal seat of the cele- bration should be; perfect the scheme, control the details and furnish the means entire, * * * Sectional claims and clamor should be disre- garded as beneath notice.” ————— ——_ ‘The death of Maurice Adier after an illness about one month longer than President Gar- field's, and extending through a corresponding season of the year, adds little to the sum of the world’s knowledge of the pathology of gunshot wounds. The difference between the two cases isso slight that it might almost be accounted for on the ground of a less trying temperature this year. The latter half of June and all of Beptember were farcooler and pleasanter in 1889 than in 1881. . q+ The news of two disasters on the water comes to sweil the list of horrors which have made the year memorable. In one case, that of the coasting steamer Earnmoor, there seems to have been no help for the trouble. The terrible West India cyclone of September proved more than a match for her strength, although she was new and sound. In the other case, that of the river steamer Corona, the boilers burst, although she had just left the dry-dock, and was naturally supposed to be in thorough repair. It would be interesting to leara who had last given her a certificate of inspection as to ber boilers. That work is too often done in a perfunctory manner, where the inspector isin # hurry to get through with the Job and the owners are desirous of saving time and money. By abolishin, general schedule the Com- missioners rid themselves of one fruitful source of controversy in the apportionment of street improvements. Others remain, however, and ‘will continue to annoy until the coming of that glittering future when the District's revenues will permit everybody's street to be provided —<$<$<—— The Baltimore electric railway is in tyouble, hike the similar road in Richmond. Tht elec- tric men have been claiming that electricity cannet kill satisfactorily, and the advocates of the horse or mule as a motive power are now claiming that electricity cannot run street cars successfully. But it can do both. $$ a ‘The first street decorations for the conclave parade promise well for the appearance of the city next week, Woosrxa Passexrs, We ba w le gp ag er and varied Steck ot nice posts tae mnive sents, Consisting ROsAL WORCESTER te CRACKER, FARM PALAD BOWLS, DESSERT PLATES, Xc.. in new an yatifal ms.
