Address of the Congressional Committee to Republican Editors. Representative Belden of New York. chair- man of the republican congressional commit- tee, has issued the following address to the republican editors of the country: “The republican party in its several national platforms has pledged the country that as one of its fundamental planks it would see to the execution of the provision of the Constitution which guarantees to every lawful voter in fed- eral elections his right to deposit his ballot and have it counted for the candidate of his choice. That pledge, based on injustice, involves merely the exercise of an unquestionable con- stitational right of overy American citizen. Nevertheless, the gravest election abuses in a large section of our country have deprived vast masses of their lawful franchise; have by fraudulent agencies imposed an unlawful rep- resentation in the national House of Repre- sentatives. and have thus practically subverted the Constitution in some of its most important and valuable provisions. The strict enforce- ment of this inalienable right is demanded as a solemn duty. ‘No question of negro supremacy, no usur- | oe of federal power is involved in the issue. he national elections bill, which recently passed the House, deals only with national elec- tions. It does not meddle, directly or indi- rectly, with state elections, state officers or state organizations, The states are very prop- erly left to work out their own destiny through their own agencies. Why, then. should the bill not become a law? As declared by the Hon. Wm. McKinley in his recent speech in the House: ‘fhe passage of the federal election bill is the supreme duty of the hour.’ The pas- sage cannot longer be reasonably evaded. ‘The House, faithful and active in the fulfilment of party pledges, zealous in the performance of a Teat public trust and undaunted by the dia- Sotical throats and areaults of the democratic party, has promptly performed its duty by the Passage of th: bill, Now it only remains for the republican majority in the Senate to emu- late the House and permit the President, by his signature, to rat.fy and register the will of the nation. Will the Seaate promptiy perform shis TO APPLICANTS FOR PENSIONS Informal Applications Will Not be Recognized. ‘There has been such haste on the part of the applicants for pensions under the recent dis- ability act to get their applications on file in the Pension Office that in many instances the form of application has been in- formal As the law provides that the pension shall go into effect from the date of the filing of the application after the passage of the act it becomes an im- Portant question as to whether the date of the filing those informal applications shall be con- sidered asthe date of filing the application within the meaning of the law. Commissioner Raum decided in the negative and he has been sustained by Assistant Secretary Bussey, who decides that none other than s formal applica- tion shall be recognized. THE WESTERN CROPS. Bright Prospects Reported From Many Districts. The following appears in this week's Farm- ers’ Review published in Chicago: The majority of our correspondents in Kentucky, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota report lo- calshowers sufficient for the immediate needs of growing crops in those states. “Very dry” is the report from all parts of Illinois and Mis- sour, as well as portions of Indiana, Ohio and Kansas. Good rains have fallen in many of the previously droughty districts of Nebraska and corn shows marked improvement in conse- quence. The condition of spring wheat remains the same as last reported in Wisconsin and Min- nesota, Considerable improvement has taken place in Nebraska. In Iowa rust has caused a decline in several counties that has lowered the average for the State. The condition of corn has not changed materially from the fair average last reported in Illinois and Iowa. Nebraska, Wisconsin and Minnesota cor- respondents report considerable improvement. Reports from all other states covered by our bulletin show a decline of two to five pomte. Relative to oats Illinois reports show a slight improvement on the very low average as re- ported. Minnesota and Iowa correspondents report condition improving and prospects good for an average crop. Reports from Michigan and Wisconsin indicate considerable decline, but the averages for those states are still hig: In all other states the condition is very lowand apparently declining. From the present out- look Iilinois and Missouri will harvest only about one-half and Kentucky about one-quarter inperative obligat.ou? ‘he committes is in possession of informa- tion showing a concentrated effort on the part of the democratic party to change the trend of public thought by poisoning the minds of the people to the end that a sentiment may be manufactured that woald deter Congress from ba a national election law at this session. t is believed that a favorable expression of opinion at this juncture from the republican press all along the line would be as forcible as timely and would exert a wh lesoma influence und inspire legislators to the carrying out of the party's pledge. “The House bas performed its part of the work to which the party was pledged. Will you uot do your duty in urging that the Senate sual respoud promptly by the passage of the measure which the House deems essential, ab- solutely essential, to the purity of the elections of its own members? ““(Sigued) J. J. Bewvex.” VIRGINIA REPUBLICANS. The State Committee Recommend Non- Participation in Elections at Present. ‘The Virginia republican state committee, which has been in session here under the guidance of Gen. Mahone, adjourned yesterday and went home. The conclusions arrived by the committee are that the republicans of the Old Dominion had better take a rest during the coming congressional campaign because the democrats are going to have their own way anyhow. The commitiee has made public the following: In pursuance of section 2. article 3 of the party code, which provides that the state com- mittee ‘shall fix the time and place of all state | and congressional conventions of the party and prescribe the number of delegates and alternates for each county and city in the state aad the mode of electing the samo to such con- vention.” the state committee, at a meeting held on Tuesday, the Sth day of July, 1890, after a full consideration of the subject, do declare: First. That inasmuch there hes not been in this state. as they believe, a full and unhin- dered exercise of the right of the elective franchise and an honest return of the ballots as cast since the election for Representatives in Congress in the year 1382. when the election machinery was fairly organized and honestly administered, save and except in the congres- sional elections of 1886, when the republicans carried the state by 20,000 and received the re- turns for seven of the ten members of Con- gress, whereas, according to democratic au- thority, “had Mr. Barbour been at home the count would have been different.” ‘That, inasmuch as in the last state election it isknowa that fully 27.000 legally qualified voters were fraudulently stricken from the registration books, and by such means the pop- ular will nullitied and a state government im- posed upon the people without remedy, and that inasmuch as it has come to pass that an lection in the state for municipal, state or federal officers under the democratic election law, and as administered by democratic offi- ciais, isa mere mockery, and that any conten- tion of candidates opposed to the democratic machine candidates only serves to give coun- tenance to the belief that elections in Virginia are free and fair. That we for ourselves declare that we will not participate, and we advise all self-respect- ing republicans to forbear participation in any election in this state (except in such districts where the district committees may elect to all conventions) where and so long as the same shal! be conducted under the foul election law of the democratic party, as now fraudulently adnunistered, hopefully biding the time when nulawful disfranchisement of the electors and fraudulent returns shall become so repugnant to popular sentiment as to make the acceptance of public trust by such means a badge of dis- honor; when the better thought of the masses shail realize that an efficient, frugal and pure administration of public affairs is only to be reached by fair elections; when, in fact, it shall be seen that a republican form of government, a» guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States, the ——_ law of the land, is al- lowed or enforced im Virginia. But, im deference, and only in deference, to what may be the wish in some of the districtst, this committee hereby delegates authority to every congressional committee, that mayso de- termine, to cail a district convention to nom- inate a candidate for Congress, and to fix the time and piace of the same. By direction, Asa Roporns, Secretary. Excessive Freight Charges on Food. The hearing before the interstate commerce Commission in the matter of alleged excessive freight charges on food products was continued Yesterday. H.F. Dousman, representing the Chicago board of trade, filed tabulated statements of shipments from pomts in Nebraska, showing that corn is being shipped from the Missouri river to Chicago by favored shippers at the Fate of fifteen cents per hundred pounds or Jess, and argued that fifteen cents should be es- tablished us the open published rate by the com- mission, G. M. Lambertson of Lincoln, Peared on behalf of the Nebras! Alliance and the state of Nebraska, and urged the reduction of the rate on corn from the Missouri river to fifteen cents per handred to Chicago. He showed by data that ten years ago they carried corm at about twenty-two centsand the product of corn is now three times what it was then. He also showed that Some of the roads were under a secret rate esrrying corn now at less than fifteen cents. D. Babcock, secretary of the Northwestern Towa Grain Shippers’ Association, and Spencer Smith, chairman of the board of railroad com- missioners of fowa, also made arguments on behalf of the interests represented by them. At the afternoon session arguments were made by Geo. T. Anthony and James Hamphrey, commissioners of the state of Kansas, Special Census Agents Appointed.

From the Buffalo Express. Imagine a cultivated person from Hindostan, or say the heart of Australia, a man who knew the English language thoroughly, but who by sad fate had never heard of a base ball game, sitting downto read a skillfully written ac- count of a great contest like that between the Buffalos aud the New Yorks on Friday. To make the pomt plainer yet, imagine this scholarly gentleman as living 2,000 years hence, and as having dug up from the ruins of Buffulo a perfectly preserved newspaper of the date of June 21, 1890. In archwological ecstasy he seats himself amid the ruins of the soldiers’ monument—looking just as they do now—and proceeds to read: “Giants Jumped on. Buffalo wipes the diamond wit! w York’s pets. * * * Buck Ewing told t ighty pitcher to gather up his loins and mow down the Bisons, * * * When the Bisons put on a clincher in the ninth Buck took off his red overshirt. donned a black and white blazer and packed up the Giants’ traps, vowing that he and Keefe would kill the Bisons tomorrow. * * * Crane soaked one man, * * * White was nailed between sec- ondand third.” * * * te ow, this naturally will puzzle the scholarly gentleman; nor will he reccive light from other Copies of other papers of the same period. He will read how one mighty man “fanned the air," how another ‘died at third" and how several wero “‘sacrificed” amid great rejoicing. In his erudite bistory of ‘he Ancient Ameri- can Republics and ‘the Causes Which Led to Their Decay” we would find some such para- graph as this: “From the perfectly preserved record of THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON SWEPT BY A SIMUON. Over Seven Hundred Lives Lost in an Arabian Town. Advices have been received in London that & terrible cyclone or simoon, so frequent in Arabia, prevailed in Muscat and in the adjacent country yesterday. It came almost without warning, and at least seven hundred lives were lost. It had » circular, rotary motion, While everything was calm in the center the outside air currents circulated at a tremendous velocity. A violet-colored cloud, which swooped down from the heavens in a few sec- Onds’ time. was the first intimation the inhabi- tants had of the simoon. The dreaded visitor was an eddy of heated air, accompanied by Poisonous gases, which were instantly fatal. Many of the frightened people adopted the only method of preserving life against its fear- ful blast by lying prone upon the sand, cover- ing their faces with their clothes and waiting for the wind's abatement. The wind abatedina quarter of hour. Then reports of its work began to come in, and it was found that great damage was done in the city and surrounding country. Many houses, both there and on the plantations, were demolished, The loss of life was appalling. Re- [soe thus far received show that cver seven undred persons were killed by the simoon’s dead, know it is likely that tl figures will be greatly increased.

A Berlin special July 9, says: A correspon- dent writes that Prince Bismarck looks twenty years younger than his pictures make him ap- pear. When advised to withdraw these libels upon his person, the prince replied: “Oh, the photos are all right; they show me as I looked when in office. A few months of laziness have added ten years tomy life. When asked his views upon bettering the condition of labor, he said: “Why, when I was a boy only two people in my native village possessed clocks and all the rest used to go to them for the time of day.

In interviews prior to their their sports it may be asserted without qnalifi- cation that the Americans were the most brutalized and bloodthirsty people who ever laid clam to any degree of enlightenment. ‘The arenic sports of Rome were less debasing, and showed far greater regard for human life. In the priceless Ancient Print collection made by the author is a perfect record of one of the Bisonic fete days, It is matter-of-fact in tone, yet the old chronicler was gifted with rare skill, for, like Homer, he pictures the most thrilling events in the simplest language. “Here, too, is indisputable proof that there were giants in those days. They were so large and savage that the spectators sat in iron cages, aud the young men who did combat with them, sometimes riding, or possibly driving wild bisons, braved death fe Victory. Often, at these so-called games, the contestants in which sought to pitch each other out of the arena, the over-wrought men would often die while running (evidently pursuing or fleeing from the giants.) Those who survived were often sacrificed ona hot plate, while the populace, safe in their cages, would howl with blood- thirsty rage of delight. “Frequent allusions to ‘soaking’— probably in boiling oil—and to the contestants being ‘nailed’ show that these horrible diversions combined the hazards of a Koman arena with the ficndish atrocities of the inquisition.” ae soe LABOR RIOT IN MICHIGAN, Striking Street Labore?s Create Much Excitement in West Superior. It was expected that the strike among street laborers at West Superior, Mi ended yesterday by the men acce; wages of €1.75aday. The despondency of the men was but a lull before the storm. About 200 of the strikers appeared in the main streets this morning and proceeded to the work on 12th street, where about forty men were em- ployed. The strikers rushed upon them and a fight ensued. Contractor Sutton cut one man on the arm withashovel. The strikers chased Sutton to his home three blocks away, beating him with clubs, Later in the day the mob arrived at the American Steel Barge Works, where they were kept at a distance with revolvers, After din- ner another attempt was made to force the works. Contractor Anderson shot one man in the head, the bullet glancing and hitting a man named John Fotem in the leftarm. The strikers theu charged, but Mr. Anderson held his grouud with drawn revolver, while the mob threw bricks and clubs and anything they could lay their hands on. When Mayor Patterson and a force of special police arrived on the grounds, the strikers were wild for Mr. Andersou’s life. Mr, Ander- son was taken away and concealed in the second story of the carpenter shop. The strikers soon learned that he was concealed about the premises and a hunt ensued, By meaus of lad- ders the men climbed up and found him, but Mayor Patterson quieted the crowd by appoint- ing & committee of strikers and a crowd of olicemen to see Anderson to the city hall.

But of this latter namber a very large proportion is supplied reguiarly to per | manent residents of the city living in lodgings, | &c. (mot householders), so that its whole circala tion may be literally said to be in the family circle, While iw aggregate ciggulation there- fore gives Tae Stan a aw) and enviaiia position im modern journal'sm, the fullness of its home circulation, the extent to which it is relied upon by members of the household, and particularly by the pure chasing portion of the community, are the marked characteristics of the paper, to which no other daily journal now published can furnish a parallel. This is no idle boast on the part of the paper. Tt is a well established fact, demonstrated to the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seck and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY Palb OUT FOR ADVERTISING, This is proven by the growth of Tur Stan's advertising patronage. Nothing can more surely illustrate the esteem in which any article is held by the public than a constantly increasing demand for it—day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year,—in the face of ad- verse claims and pretentiouscompetition, The figures following tell the story on this pojpt: NUMBER OF NEW ADVERTISEMANTS #RINTRD Et 1885-86-87-S8-80, 1886, 1887. 3,200 3,615 3,064 3,547 3.806 4,669 3,478 O89 4,522 3,38L 3170 4,517 5,313 Isss, 4,076 3924 4,603 4,956 S070 1889. 4,556 in the way of tax sales, poll lists, election retarns, ‘etc., such as occasionally swell the business of political organs, being included in its patrom age. In conclusion, it is only necessary to say that, fm proportion to the extent and high character Of its circulation, Tux Stan's advertising rater take rank with the very lowest in the country, and to add, finally, that every statement hereir made can be abundantly verified) THE CIB CULATION OF THE PAPER 18 SWORN TO; ITS PRESS AND CIRCULATION BOOMS ARB OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, AND ITS BOOKS MAY BE INSPECTED BY ANY ONE HAVING 4¥ INTEREST IN THEIE EXAMINATION. -
