WASHINGTON: WEDNESDAY 30, 1890. and as an Advertising Medium te worth the other papers published in The multiplication of calamity has been the Cause of the multiplication of the predictor of calamity. Lurid in language, picturesque in imagination and fertile in funcy be arisesevery Morning more than equal to the occasion he invokes. The sublimest fact in current history is the unpredictable attainments of the Ameri- ean prophet of catastrophe, The newest bird of ill omen is nots bird, but Bachanan, and he goes into the twentieth certury with all the ken of bis prophetic and powerful mind. Writ- ing for the Arena this individual having the gift of the second sight says: “The twentieth century will be ushered in with in- creasing agitation and discontent How high the agitation will riso in the next eighteen years it would not be safe to pre- @ict, but during that timo it will be increased by awar in Europe, which will come on near the beginning of the 20th eeutury and end in the destruction of monarchy.” Prof, Buchanan is ‘Ot satistied to lay all Earope under his doom- sealing vision, and to destroy monarchy; he finds it necessary to get up a war or quasi war, and aot bave the convulsion arrested until 1916. Previous to that for six years the United fairly reek with horror, a particular description of which the professor kindly with- holds or merely gives out to the whispering winds im his lonely evening walks. He inti- mates. however, that the conflict is to be one of labor end capital “intermingled with a re- ligious element of discord” and “a mixture of the race question from the presence of a power- ful negro element confrouting the Caucasian megrophobia.” His horoscope is physical as well as moral and political. We are to begin with cyclones this very summer (that was easy enough since the cyclones were already swoop- ing down as the prophet prophesied) and running into “cold seasons,” destructive to agriculture, and ending with an earthquake, fol- Jowed by an immense tidal wave overwhelming Galveston, New Orleans and Southern Florida and demaging many other Atlantic cities, in- cluding Washington, “which will saffer in its low grounds” As the prophet thinks New England will be safe it is probable he isa New Englauder. Nobody will desert the lower Aclantic and the gulf seaboard or even the cap- ital’s low grounds on account of the Arena’s dvom sealer, The prophets are simply not ail dead ye “Tne Srak still persists in its fight for the removal of the Sixth-street station. ...People whoare fn favor of this wild scheme will of course sign Tur Star's petition.”— Washington Jot, And so will the people who are not in favor of this removal, but who think it of conse- quence to protect life and limb in this city as they are protected in other cities This peti- tion gives to those who favor on the score of convenience the retention of the present sta- tion site the opportunity to show that their concurrence with the railroad goes no farther than their view of the supposed public interest in the matter. and that they condemn as vig- orously as other good citizens the sacrifice of life and obstruction to trade and travel at grade-crossings and the unnecessary distigare- ment of surface approaches to the station across the mall, since these tracks may be cov- ered and hidden, even if they are permitted to remain. The intimation that removal of the station is the main issue in the railroad con- troversy, and the great end aimed at by the petition, is a part of the policy of persistent nsisrepresentation to which the railroad and the railroad’s organ have resorted. ‘When misstatements have been exposed, com- plete silence has followed the exposure, and | This isu't the paragraph for men. the detected falsifiers, unabashed by the ig- nominy of their situation. have abandoned one set of statements only to coin fresh falvehoods.
