THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON THE EVENING STAR. ASHIN GEGN weve. see May 7, 1890, THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World, Advertising Medium is worth A Mammoth Star on Saturday. In order to meet the pressure upon its ad- vertising columns without curtailing the quan- tity of choice reading matter which its readers fre accustomd to expect in Saturday's issue, Tue Sram will sppear on Saturday next in quadruple or sixteen-page form. The great popularity of Saturday's Stans makes them exceptionally valuable as advertising mediums, and as the coming mammoth edition will be tpusually attractive, those desiring to reach the public eye for any purpose should take advantage of it. Advertisers wanting extra space are requested to arrange and furnish copy therefor as long in advance as possible, 808 to avoid such disappointments as occurred ast week. nt The debate which opens today inthe House of Representatives will have important results, in one way or the other, either for good or harm, to the people of the nation. While the tariff in some of its aspects is and must always remain a local question, in others it is a subject of national and even of universal interest, since the measure adopted touches at many points the vital interests of the Union at large, and at a smaller number of points the interests of bu- manity at large, The nice discrimination re- quired in settling a national economical policy ean hardly be over-valued, Not oniy is it im- portant to know the wants of each and every community, but it is indispensable that this knowledge shell dovetail with the rights and interests of the whole people, so that none shall be ruined that others may be promoted and that the best good of the whole shall inter-relate with the best good of the parts, Still, it must be that the parts shall severally concede much tothe whole for the general welfare, Nor is mere knowledge all, or even the chief thing. A spirit of patience to weigh considerations and arrange details and settle principles, a resolute courage to carry into effect what isseen to be the most} effective plan for the public good both now and hereafter, a principle of justice to do what is right and expedient for the public interests. saving private rights as far as possible from in- jury—these are the leading requirements of a wise legivlative policy in respect to the tariff. Without wisdom to frame, conscience to safe- guard and boldness to execute no legislation i sound, This subject of the national revenues has so long been befor, the country, and bas been so exhaustively discussed in and out of Congress, that it would seem on a superficial view that no further debato was necessary. But the question is a large and constantly changing one. Even since the last presidential election. not two years ago, there has been modification in circumstances. The possibili- ties of further change during the few months before a congressional election shall again occur make the topic one peculiarly delicate in the handling. Congress cannot, therefore, be too deeply impressed by the responsibilities of the situation. a The German emporor’s speech to the reich- stag was most Siguificant. It is said that he is the only Hohenzollern who has talked publicly about everyday things, the plain people of the country and their urgent needa. More than half of his remarks related to the workingmen. Of the remainder of the speech, as reported, two inches are devoted to foreign relations, two to the army, one to the budget and one only to the now absorbing topic of colonial en- terprise in Africa, The address to the reich- stag and previous utterances show that the young Hohenzollern realizes some of the seri- ous responsibilities resting upon him as the kingly leader of European statecraft. He is evidently a man of resolute purpose and more sagacity than that with which he has been | credited, at least in this country. Time alone can tell whether he is a Frederick or a failure, It isa horrible story, with a picturesquely horrible setting, that comes from Longue PFomte, Province of Quebec, about the burning of the lunatic asylum with one hundred of its | inmates, who would not be saved but danced with high glee, charmed by the beauty of the flames. Iwo comments, at least, are to | be made: 1,300 lunatics should not have been en- | trusted by the state to any private organization, however efficient. and arrangements for secur- ing water should have been perfected long be- fore the fire. It appears that the provincial | authorities were content with keeping up the | iusurance on the buildia, oe Whether Mr. Cleveland swore at Mr. Dana is a disputed question. But one point is clearly settled by the controversy. It is unanimously agreed by the newspapers that an ex-president | aud a presidential candidate must not swear at an editor, whether for publication or not. This teaching of the late and stil! pending unpleas- antness is very distinct, and should be carefully noted by all candidates. paschvaie ee “Peace, peace,” says the German emperor to a tax-ridden people, and then be submits a bill to mcrease the army. ———— + = The judiciary committee of the New York senate kills the capital punishment abolition bil, This action is extremely annoying to the convicted murderers of New York, held for execution, and is not entirely satisfactory, it 4s believed, to the electric companies, oS cones —__———+ Major Me Kinley today broke through the ob- structions to an accumulated torrent that will food the country with tariff talk and plunge the entre community into a gulf of dark de- spair. —_—_— A great super-national musical festival is proposed for Washington in 1892, But what does Chicago say? ee What is the use of hours and days of study devoted by the press to the evolution and de- velopment of the word “electrocution” if the thing signided is not to exist and to be applied practicaily. - > oe Tammany under any other Chief Croker would have as gloomy prospects. 2 lea Fo Noma.

TRADITIONS OF * RESDEN WARE.” For generations (even when your grandparents were children) the famous “Blue-aud-Wnite Dresden Ware” has been the pride and desire of the housewife universally. If we may say so, it is one of the antiqui- ties that is never old, How many of you recall its ap- Peurauce on the table on “state” occasions; and how well you can realize that “mother” or “grandima’ would as soon have you tamper with the fazuily silver Plate as for you to molest the “Dresden” ware, Break it! Why, you almost broke her heart, Well, until a year or two ago not an atom of this ware was ever made in America. Then a company imported the special scrade of clay and bexan to pro duce the “American Dresden Ware,” But the process of coloring, &e., was $0 expensive and intricate that the euterprise was unsuccessful, The ambitious manufacturers abandoned this line and offered their production on the mirket in one lot. There wore several bidders, ourselves included. We got all there was. Lvery dish was sold to us, You can rest as- sured—as the burnt child dreads fire—the experiment of “American Dresden Ware will never be repeated, and neither ourselves, nor any one elee, will ever have achauce to offer you such a “climax of disaster” as absolute counterpart of the original Dresden, althouch there are, here and there, imperfections in detail which you would not detect, but which we tell you are there Just the same, Coe yourself, bring your mother and your grand- mother (if the dear oid soul's living), and let them feast their eyes on sometLing, “the likes of which was never seen afore!” We venture to say if these same goods were offered at Macy's, in New York, or at Wanamaker’s, ia Philadel Phia, they wouldn't last an hour.
