THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTO f. WASHINGTON: SATURDAY Al THE EVENING STAR has the fallest Local Cireulation of any Newspnper in the World, and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published ia Washington. New York Office: Room 93, Tribune Building. ee ee Shee As the Ist of May approaches a feeling of un- easiness pervades the employing cluss in the towns and cities. That isthe date fixed fora general strike in favor of the eight-hour law. There is much to be said on both sides of this question. The King Alfred division of time into three exact periods of eight hours for work, eight hours for recreation and eight hours for sleep, it is contended, is as good for kings of toilas for the tinsel royalty on the throne, Eight hours hard, anremitting labor brings the desire for rest and the capacity for enjoying rest rationally. That rest need not be absolute but relative—a change of work. ‘Thus the brain worker should recreate by in- dulgence in out door or at least physical exer- cise. The manual laborer shonid, on the con- trary, get relaxation by reading, writing, at- tending lectures and the like. There is no de- nying the fact that over-close application toany calling is injurious mentally and physically. In opposition to the demand for eight hours as A wU U TIT?

The public cannot, how- ever, be moved deeply in behalf of an eight- hour law tobe applied indiscriminately, re- taining the rates of payment for the longer day, The strongest ground of the agitation i the desirability of obtaining time for mental improvement, But that must be secured with- out too great shock or the perpetration of any injustice, If the reason of the movement were simply to provide more places, it would work ill for the persons now employed and serve to attract from a distance other laborers, —— + The vice-president of the Pennsylvania road in his argument yesterday declared the belief that a majority of the people of the District would not favor a removal of the station from the mall, Every local voluntary association of citizens from the passage of the a +t of 1872 down to the present Board of Trade has approved ome plan involving this removal, and nearly every board of Commissioners down to the incumbents, who yester ‘ay approved the Bur- ton bill, have given voice to the same public scntiment, + ____ The drouth will continue in Iowa, At last the Senate rises to the occasion and dismisses the Dolph report with evident dis- gust, pcobably inspired by the public digust which long preceded it, The Senate ough* to follow this action by abolishing the secret ses- sions except in rare instances where secrecy may be desirable. All appointments to office should be made in the full light of day. Ohio is about to join the reform ballot column. A bill including the main features of the Australian ballot has passed the house of representatives by an overwhelming majority and has the approbation of Gov. Campbell and the leaders of both parties. Besides the secret ballot feature the bill provides a non-partisan state state board of election with supervisory powers over non-partisan county boards. Thus progresses a mighty and salutary principle, ey Some of the Pennsylvanians want a “clarion voice in Congress which caa be heard from Capitol Hill to the White House” and call his name Fow. Why should Pennsylvania send a man who can only be heard that distance to serve in place of one who was heard from the st. Croix to the Rio Grande? —— The international copyright bill will secure the rights of authors to their own work. It will stop the piracy that has been going on on both ides of the Atlantic. If more of this has been Lone in the United States, we know that it is maply because we have had fewer writers who vere indemand abroad. But all that is chang- z. With an international copyright will come tcouger and more elevated American litera- we and our authors will be in greater demand us Europa, —— + The break-up of the international conference delayed until the plan of arbitration could settled. This was not possible nutil yesterday. i.veu then Chili did not vote for the modified uegative upon acquisitions of territory by con- vest. Under the inspiration of Mr. Blaine the nference agreed to accept the negative to vn during the existence of the treaty of arbi- ration, w ‘More light!” said Goethe. “Cheaper light!” 8 Prof. Langley.

Dr. Martinez Silva’s suggestion of a Latin- American library at Washington to be dedicated atthe Columbus quadro-centennial is an ex- cellent one and might well be extended into a general American library to cover the history, science and literature of the hemisphere. —— Saas The attention of the street cleaning con- tractor is called to the condition of nearly every street and avenue in town.

At the right side this soft whiteness was raised and drawn Upover @ saah of fine gold net, which passed across the figure and was tied rather low on the left side, the ends being gathered into fiat gold tansels, richly frinwed. Being thus caurht up the under dress of rich white satin was reveaied, with its besutiful bonier of fold leaves, highly wrought and in the palest and most refined tint of gold, The silk muslin was itself bor- dered with s narrow baud of pale gold. The white satin bodice was enriched with a band of gold passe- menterie, in Byzantine design, The train, also in ivory satin, bad the seams imiaia, as it were, with palest cold, and was bordered all round with roses of the palest blush pink. Lady Graham's tablier of fine old point was displayed to advantage over her petticoat of ivory satin, The train and bodice were embroidered With a floral design in gold thread upon ivory eatin.” The column and a half description of the many lovely costumes worn made it evident that GOLD TRIMMING has the favor of the elite of England, and oubticss it will be equally fashiouable in this coun try.
