The articles are to be based on the sugges- tions given below. Each article may contain One or more of the suggestions, as the contest- apt may elect, provided all the points are com- prehended in the six articles comprising the series, No reflections are to be made on any of our cotemporaries beyond that implied in the fact of their enjoying only a fraction of Tux Sran’s circulation, The contestants must reside in Washington or in one of the suburbs of Washington. No articles will be received lator thon June | 20, 1890. Contestants will inclose with their essays an envelope containing name and address, ‘Ihe vontestants, however, will be known to the judges by number only. The awards will be made by a committee composed of Messrs, Isadore Saks, 8. W. Wood- ward, Washington Danenhower and A. Lisner. Address all inquiries and communications relating to this contest to Editor Advertising Contest. The points required to be covered are: 1. The average circulation of Tae Srar for the first three months of 1390 was 33,236, this being more than trebie that of any other Wash- ington newspaper, 2 Tux Sran has a larger and fuller circula- tion in the city where printed, in proportion to reading and purchasing population, than any other newspaper in the world, It is essentially ahome paper, the extent to which it is relied upon by members of the household, particu- larly by the purchasing portion of the commu- nity, being the marked characteristic of the paper, to which no other daily journal now published can furnish a parallel. 3. The value of advertising is in direct pro- portion to the circulation of the paper, con- sidering the character of its readers, Weighed in this balance Tur Stan is one of the cheap- est advertising mediums in the United States, and far cheaper than any other Washington paper. 4. Uhat an advertisement running for three months or over with one change a month costs about 4!¢ cents a line an insertion or jess than one-seventh of acent per line in each thousand papers. 5, Asworn statement of the circulation of ‘Tue Star for the preceding week is publishod each Monday, and its press and circulation rooms are open to the public and its circula- tion books may be inspected by any one having an interest in their examination. 6. The fact that Tue Sran is universally reec- ognized as the great ‘“‘Want” medium of the city and the advantages of making wants known through it, —_—-_ Goverxuent Recrirrs Topay. — Internal revenue, $437,039; customa, $779,410.

Mr. Stewart, arising to a question of personal privilege, sent to the clerk's desk and had read an article from the Washington Evextxo Stan, containing a statement by Maj. Powell, director of the geological survey, in reference to a resolution recently offered by Mr. Stewart as = to the diversion of $200,000 appropriated for irrigation purposes to the use of the geological survey. Major Powell in the interview spoke of the movement as one instigated by land sharks and speculators for the purpose of “gobbling up the irrigable lands and establishing a sort of hydraulic feudal ays- me Mr. Stewart sketched an outline of what had been done recently in the work of stimulating irrigation in the far west, and of the appropria- tion made for that purpose. MISAPPLIED APPROPRIATIONS, Maj. Powell, he said, had used more than half of the appropriation in vast and expensive surveys of no practical use for the object in view, and he intimated that Maj. Powell had enormous power in both houses from his giv- ing employment to a lot of young men, the sons and relatives of members of Congress, and that he kept an enormous lobby in Washington to control the action of Congress, This vast bureau of geology and mineralogy was nothing, he said, okt a mass of humbug and foolishness— “a great lying-in hospital for lame ducks.” WHO MAINTAINS THE LOBBY. He denied Maj. Powell's statement that there was a lobby behind the movement. The only lobby on the subject was that maintained by Maj. Powell himself, who boasted of his being able to control Congress and who intimidated, by his dictatorial manuer, his subordinates, He protested against any man attempting to run the west in that way. He protested. inthe name of the enterprising pioncers of the west. SENATOR GORMAN DEFENDS MAJ, POWELL. Mr. Gorman replied to some of Mr. Stewart's assertions and defined Maj. Powell, speaking of him as a valuable public officer who had discharged his duty faithfully and honestly. fle did not approve, however, of Maj. Powell's making such a statement for publication. Mr. Stewart desired to say something addi- tional, but was prevented bya call for the regular order of business, EULOGIES OF MR. COX. Mr. Evarts gave notice that he would ask the Senate on the 12th of June to listen to eulogies onthe late Representative §. 8. Cox of New York.
