THE EVENING STAR, pap ASHINGTOX aes June 20, 1800. THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Ctrealation of any Newspaper inthe World, mn Advertising Medium is worth The principle of freo trade between the fed- @ral parts of our Union was an indispensable featare of the bond. Without it the Constitn- tion of 1787 89 would not have been longer lived in all probability than the earlier Consti- tation known as the Articles of Confederation. An extension of this principle to neighboring American states has been advocated by many statesmen of all parties, and the wonder is that it has not been accomplished. Secretary Blaine carries out in his letter, just submitted by President Harrison to Congress, the sugges- tions of the late international conference be- tween the three Americas as well as the views he bimeelf entertains, and which be brought before the conference in the first instance. Senator Hale has proposed. in pursuance of this recommendation, an amendment to the tariff tAll authorizing the President to declare the ports of the United States open to the prod- uets of those American nations which admit free of duty the products of this country. Fair as well as free trade this would be. ‘The larger aud somewhat different question of free trade with all the world is not involved. for this is, so to speak, a family affair amoug the republics of the western hemisphere, een “Am organ which sets itself up as the peo- plc's advocate should be honest in its texch- ings.” Washington Post, ‘Tue Stan heartily commends the tone of its conscience-stricken neighbor's soliloquy. Be honest, then! Drop the flimsy pretense, long ago worn threadbare and torn to tattors, that the railroad’s bill is merely a harmless freight measure! Cease the flagrant misrepresenta- tions which seek to aid the railroad by creatmmg discords among the people! Strip off the rail- road's livery entirely! Repent, reform, and you may perhaps be reinstated among the peo- Ple's advocates. oa Stanley thinks that to secure 500,000 square miles of territory ia exchange for a rock in the Baltie is not a piece of business justifying a “dolorous tirade against the prime minister.” But while Stanley is singing peans the English are reviving the days of John Lacklan¥. The Englishman wants both the 500,000 square miles of East Africa and the little rock in the Baltic. ‘That's what's the matter with him, and that is the inspiration of his large taie of woe. en Editor Arkins of the ‘ky Mountains News, Denver, editurializes with such agonizing in- tensity against the alleged practice of selecting au eastern man for the presidency as to almost foree the conclusion that he would take it him- self rather than that the pernicious custom should continue. ———<- 0 This worid is not big enough for both St. Paul and Minneapolis, The astronomers must find something like a fit arena for the colossal contest that would be waged if there was room in the Vislale heavens. — + is from the very Seginning ihe poor journals of Congress have Leen in chancery. Maclay had the Senate journal changed the first ses- sion. Benton after many years’ trial had a famous action of the Senate “expunged.” The House record has been physwked and phle- bdtomized by all parties at all times. In the language of Speaker Keed. there was nothing *unusual” in the Inte procedure. muteaess ppt ‘The republican Journals are exhibiting great ansiety lest the democrats should not be able to unite on a nomince for governor in Penn- syivania. In other eases the democratic news- papers have shown aa equaily affectionate solicitude for their advers: Se honors are easy. <= The Farmers’ Alliance of North Carolina has learned the difference between making a poltti- cal promise and keeping one. and it now re- quires that any candidate accepting a nom tion at its hands must signa pledge to carry out the wishes, will and purpose of the alliance.

Now the scientific laugher is the man whomakes you laugh by looking at him. as he laughs out of the corners of his eyes and the corners of his mouth, Mr. Allen, of Mississippi, is one of these scientific ‘aaghers, And the state of Mississippi has just lecided that he is too valuable an acquisition u the legislature at Washington to withdraw uim exclusively for home consumption. — It makes a great deal of difference whose dis- triet ie gerrymandered and the Courier-Journal speaks of “the monumental generosity of the lute democratic legisinture in constructing such va ideal republican district and in giving its boandary line sueh liberal dimensions and such uuarestricted course as to take in e great bunch of the Prominent republicans ef the state.” _— ——— It would seem that France, too, thinks she has something to do with East African arrange- is in general, and Zanzibar, protectorates : particular.
