THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. THE EVENING STAR, WwiGE i Coe THE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Circulation of any NeWspa in the World, rtising Medium is worth other papers published in The political ferment in the south seems ikoly to find a head pretty soon in two states— Mississippi and South Carolina. The race question is uppermost in the first-named com- monwealth, where a constitutional convention assembled yesterday, the chief purpose of which is admitted to be the restraint of suff- rage. A faction of the democrats has urged the necessity for reducing the number of suff- ragans aud submitting to a consequent reduc- tion of representation in Congress in accord- ance with the provisions of the 14th amend- ment of the United States Constitution. To this there is naturally strong opposition on the part of all to whom the possession of power is sweeter than peace secured by the partial sur- render of representation. It appears to be probable that a middle conrse will be adopted by which the most ignorant partof the voters will be excluded from the suffrage by means of the Australian ballot system, and no formal re- duction of the representation in Congress be made, or at least not until itis seen how large the exclusion of voters is under the proposed law. In South Carolina the trouble is also funda- mental, but political rather than constitutional. The “bottom rail” of the democratic fence is trying to get on top. The upper rails have always insisted, from the days of the Rutledges and the Pinekneys, on -their superiority of position, and have heretofore maintained them- selves in it, The “plain people,” to quote Mr. Lincoln's favorite expression, are jealous of the “‘state-house ring.” as they call the aristo- cratic junta now in command, and purpose hurling it down with small regard to formalities or anybody's feelings, They allege that the affairs of the state have been long mismanaged and that reform is now indispensable, To this the straightout democrats, as they are self- termed, make a general aud emphatic denial, and they go further and impeach the motives of the opposition or Tillmat democrats, alleging that the latter are simpiy striving to get possession of the offices, Itisa very pretty fight es it stands in the state con- vention today, with the South Carolina repub- licans waiting to see how it all will turn out, and the people of the United States, without regard to party, looking on as more or less in- terested spectators, The first to attempt in 1360—'61 the dissolution of the Union, the Pal- metto people seem likely to be the first to break the solidity of the reconstructed South, It is one thing to hesitate about removing the station from its convenient location un the public park. It is anotlier thing to approve the unamended Atkinson bill in all its unmiti- gated ugliness. without a single concession to the people or the slightest additional protec- tion for life and limb to pay for valuable privi- leges granted to the corporation. Where are any citizens who clamoz for the Atkinson bill? A considerable proportion of the few who signed a petition im its favor did so under a misapprehension and have since signed the pro- test against it. The hundred or so who favor the Atkinson bill are opposed by over twelve thousand protesters. rr Just why any one in the Senate or anywhere else should haye been surprised at the intro- duction yesterday by Senator Quay of a resolu- tion virtually postponing action on the election bill does not appear from that Senator's views privately expressed and for several days past widely published. The question is mixed up inthe Pennsylvania mind with the tariff exi- gency and that is considered more pressing tuaa the passage of a measure like the election bal, ed Got. David B. Hill is an opportunist who uses each individual opportunity for every- thing it is worth to him. By his refusal to sead troops to the aid of Mr. Depew's road in its struggle with the Knights of Labor, except on conditions that they were not te be em- ployed as police, he made himself solid with the Knights without effecting his standing with other voters. Mr. Hill and Mr. Depew may ith each other some day for the United es Senatorship, in which event the gifted uuer talker may wish he had staid at Lome this summer. —— > In the republican congressional convention seventh district, South Carolina yesterday, two ominent members were only restrained by perior numbers from thumping the campaign mina out of each other, notwithstanding the ral elections bill stands waiting to protect all republicans who need protection in political matters. oo Those members of Congress who ware not refrained from expressing epithets and senti- ments concerning the Speaker will be pained by their propriety when they read that Dr. Tanner in the House of Commona yesterday told Home Seecetary Matthews he was “the lowest and mean s: skunk that ever sat on the ‘Treasury bench.” Wha* other variety of skunk las occupied that proud position, Dr. Tanner did not say. rs Mr. Cheadle of Indiana, whose efforts in be- half of the soldiers were not rewarded by an- other term in Congress, is after absentees from the House, with a sharp stick, particularly those who ere doing the G.A.R. in Boston. ——<$<—$<$<—< The Spesker now serves Mr. Regers of Ar- kansas every day “with a polite endurance of what cannot be helped” and the gentleman from Arkansas does not “tumble,” as it were. ———— ‘There is an academy of silence on the demo- cratic side of the Senate as respects the Quay resolution, The House democrats have not set up 2 similar institution of silence im their end of the Capi —— The Ohio republican state central com- mittee has adopted a resolation approving the federal elections bill aud asking its passage. gerrymander in that state has » it Would seem, aud they want protection. pone Ee ne ee Senator Vance got the tariff essence into a tineap yesterday.

Hanan and Son—for instance—have modeled some three or four new styles that possess their characteris- tie peculiarity of combining style with PER- FECT COMFORT. We've been reprosenting them nearly six months—and they tell us we're one of their strongest agencies, We're growing, too, Their good qualitfes-OUR moderate prices—is the team that has pulled them to the front in Washington, Allalong the line we found the new shapes the most graceful and sensible for many # sea- ton. Style often grows out of your comments—did you know that? You don't drop a word about what you'd like to see in a shoe—that it isn't carefully considered, If practical—used. “WHAT 13.” Don’t talk about prico—we've untwisted until only the most slender threads hold the rarest qualities, All the Ladtes’ Russet Novelties— All the Mena Russet Noveltics— All the Children’s Russet Noveltiea— they're dangling by almost nothing.
