Novgs, Treasurer Evening Star Newspaper Company. Subseribed and sworn to before me this twenty-first day of October, A.D. 1889. Jous T. C. CLARK, Notary Public. ee Every one will hope that Mr. Hazelton’s pre- diction of the adoption of a code of District laws by Congress this winter may be fulfilled. ‘The new attorney can do the District no better rervice than by adding works to his faith and securing the result which will establish his in- fallibility as a prophet in this matter, Since the early years of the capital and the time of Cranch effort after effort has been made to ob- tain such a codification or even a revision. The project has been in some shape before nearly every session of Congress. In many Congresses one house has approved it and the other has failed to act. Several times the mat- ter has progressed so far toward success that codifiers have been appointed, but their work has never been adopted by Congress, Messrs. Abert and Lovejoy are now at work by legal authority upon a revision or statement of the existing law of the District. If Congress will adopt this revision when it is submitted the uncertainty which obscures the statute law of the District will be tosome extent relieved, and a firm foundation will be estab- lished upon which the structure of modern statute law may gradually be built, Washing- ton is now a modern city, enterprising, pro- gressive, fully abreast of the times. Ita stat- ntes are ancient, uncertain, derived from so many sources that discovery of the existing provision on some point is often difficult and framed to meet the conditions of a time so re- mote from the present that, when discovered, they are often found to be totally unfitted for application to the affairs of today. Washing- ton needs anew, neat, well-fitting statutory garment, cut after the modern style. tg Although the oflicial canvass of the recent vote in the new states of the northwest has not yet beon completed, it is so near completion that the political standing of each state can be pretty accurately stated. In North Dakota, out of a total vote of about 39,500, the republicans have a majority of 14,500; in South Dakota, out of 75,975, their majority is 31.295; in Washing- ton they are ahead by 8,500 in a total vote of some 47,500; and in Montana they have elected the representative with a majority of some- thing over a thousand, and the governorship is close and contested, with the chances favoring the democrats. The legislatures make an equally interesting showing. In that of North Dakota there will be a republican majority, on joint ballot, of 61; in South Dakota of 101, and in Washington of 91. In Montana the vote will be very close, and the courts will probably have to decide which party shall be ahead. ‘Teo four new states will add thirteen votes to the electoral college, and the republicans count ou securing at least ten of them for 1892, the majorities being strong enough to warrant a presumption of steadfastness. It is believed that the democrats in Congress contributed largely to this end by their obstinacy in refus- ing for so long to let the northwestern appli- cants into the Union. oo Canada’s extradition act, designed to relieve her of the presence of the American boodlers, and known as the Weldon act, has been disal- lowed by the English government. The exiled boodlers breathe easier and Canada is made to feel more keenly than ever that she cannot even prevent herself from being the involuntary city of refuge for American criminals without the consent of a power separated from her by thousands of miles of ocean. She is only a colony, you know, and cannot be permitted to pick her own company. Uncle Sam renews to ‘Miss Canada the assurances of his distinguished consideration. Delicacy forbids him to say more at present than that “Barkis is willin’.” —— The first person to accuse Representative Randall of losing his reason is the one who started the report that the great Pennsylvanian has been revising Governor Hill's speeches on this southern trip. a ‘That Philadelphia inventor who has got up a treadmill arrangement for street-car floors, by which the passengers are automatically borne along to the forward end of the car, so that the conductor no longer needs to shout “Move up in front,” deserves a medal. He saves to every weary patron of a street railway line great mental friction. ee John Most has trimmed his hair and beard, wears his Derby hat ata rakish angle, has got into a brand new business suit of clothes, and conructs himself quite like an ordinary human Deing. This is said to be due to the taming in- fluence of asentence suspended during good behavior. He evidently prefers such a sus- pension to the kind which proved so effective in the cases of five of his fellow anarchists in Chicago two years ago. Seen Corporal Tanner is quoted as saying that he is glad he is out of office because now his “awfal jaw” belongs to himself. He is right. Itis his to have and to hold, and a pretty good test of his common sense will be the use he makes of his freedom. oo Much newspaper comment has been drawn forth by the New York florist’s statement that most murderers are fond of flowers, and espe- cially of lilies. And yet, what is there odd in this? The lilies “toil not, neither do they spin.” Could anything be more natural than @ bond of sympathy between them and the class of mon who are often led to their crown- ing crime by idleness, and are pampered beyond al reason in the period between conviction and the execution of the death sentence? a Tf it be true, as stated, that the smokeless Powder experimented with by the German government gives off so pungent a gas that the gunners are overpowered, the art of war may undergo a great change and an artillery troop become more effective by letting the enemy capture its guns than by firing them itself. 9 ‘They say that Rosa Bonheur is painting Buf- falo Bill. He has probably lost some of his color by so long « residence in civilization and needs retouching. ——— It is to be noted that Lord Wolseley doesn't carry his admiration of General Lee to the | %2 point of helping to dedicate a monument to um. —- There are only five democrats in the legis- lature of the new statejof Washington; but the Fepublicans have a big enough factional fight on their hands to make up for this shortcoming on the other side, | Mattings, 1Uc. per yd.

We feel sure there must be lots of gentlemen whoare “almost persuaded” to give Ready-made Clothing a trial—but are hesitating—sly of the re- sult—afraid that after they get the Suit or Over- cost home it won't suit them, Listen. Don’t take any one else's stock as a criterion of ours, One might look upon the Potomac and try to picture in it the majestic Mississippi with as much propriety, We carry lines of goods that are total strangers to their tables—in fact, there are very few Clothiers in the country who make up the fine, superior grades of fabrics we do. When ‘we say we are challenging the eforts of merchant tailors it means JUST THAT. They boast of the Perfection of their ft. We guarantee ours to fit you perfectly in evory particular. They announce the exclusivencss of their patterns, We've had opened to us within the last few seasons the same pur- chasing facilities they enjoy. They look over the market side by eide with us. Now, the only ques- tion is; Is it worth double the money to have your Clothing cut for you personally? Toa man you'll say—“No!"—and you're right. * Ourfine Overcoats run from $25 to $55, and are made up in Castor Beavers, Fur Beavers, Mon- tagnace, Kerseys, Carr's English Meltons, Cheviots. Irish Frieze, &c.—all tailors’ cloths and rarely seen except on their counters, Ours are just as well and as fashionably made as are theirs—with silk linings, quilted and not, lapped seams; selvage, Piped or stitched edges; in cape coats, walking, Griving and coaching coats—reproduction of the Istest fashion plates—and you savea clear half on your purchase, No different with the suits—we go to @40 with them, but we give you fabrics cut, made and finished in a manner that will puzzle an expert to tell whether it is a custom-made garment or not— Cheviots, Cassimeres, Worsteds in the Clay, Bocx and Hockanum order—that’s the kind. Now—you “hesitaters"—WE take all the re- sponsibility. We're behind our clothes to the end— literally, If they're not absolutely satisfactory all the way through—we want to know it, There ‘never was 8 claim made to us that wasn't adjusted speedily and amicably—and you're given the bene- fitof allthe doubts every time. We're not doing business just for now—but for the future as well.
