4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: ‘WEDNESDAY...... October 1, 1880. THE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Lecal Circulation of any Newspaper in the Werid, and as an Advertising Medium ts worth more than all the ether papers published in Wasbingten. Ss A communication in another column revives fhe question of the constitutionality of the re- trocession of Alexandria county to Virginia ‘The Supreme Court of the United States has decided that only Virginia or the United States can raise the question. The former will Goubtiess resist any movement which threatens to deprive it of one of its counties, and the United States must take the active steps if the Original proportions of the ten miles square are to be restored. There are obvious ad- vantages to be derived both by Alexandria and ‘Washington from this restoration. The Dis- friet cannot concede for an instant that any- ‘thing less than a constitutional amendment can alter the boundaries of the seat of government created in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution. There is a military ad- vantage in holding under national ecntrol the Diuffs on the other side of the Potomac over- looking Washington. The problem of Arling- ton as no-man’s-land would in part be settled. Buch resorts as Jack .on City would be brought under District laws, The first essential for promise of success in thy movement for restor- stion is to show conclu-ively that Alexandria county desires it. Th>. with s favorable ex- pression of opinion from Washington the work of devising the most effective method of testing the law im behalf of the United States would be hope- fully begun, and every effort would be made to seeure the action determined upon from the Proper officials, A contention between the United States or Congress and Virginia before the Supreme Court for jurisdiction over Alex- andria county would be an exceedingly inter- esting struggle. In the Supreme Court's deci- sion in the Phillips’ case there is the bare sug- gestion of s possibility that the constitutional rights in the case may have been waived by failure for so long atime toclaim them, ac- companied by affirmative recognition during this time of the jurisdiction of Virginia. If under the decision to be secured Virginia should retain Alexandria county on any such grourd as this, there would be some consola- tion to the District in a direct decision that no THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON.

REMEMBER WE HAVE NO BRANCH STORE. 1t further abridgment of its limits, not acquiesced in for twenty years, could be accomplished without a constitutional amendment So that at the worst some gain would be likely to re- SS eee It is not claimed by students of tariff history that the debate which closed yesterday was the very finest in every sense that has ever been held in ited States. So far as the Presentation of the general principles of politi- eal economy are concerned and in the respects Of stately eloquence and severe analysis some of the discussions, notably those in which Clay, ‘Webster and Calhoun participated, and one or two since the war, have exceeded that just concluded. But the last debate has perbaps been more business-like than its ‘predecessors. There has been all through in the Senate de- bate a minute consideration of practical points, even in the midst of set speeches. These have been interspersed with keen colloquies exceedingly interesting and instructive. In the House this year, with the exception of one or two strong speeches on each side, the dis- cussion was not noteworthy. That body suf- fered in the absence from the floor or the House of a number of its most admirable speakers and best-equipped thinkers, including Messrs, Carlisle and Reed. In the Senate some of the speeches reached high-water mark. Respecting the measure adopted, its “promise and potency,” its real value or injury to the public cannot now be appraised. Nothing is more uncertain than the effect of a tariff rate Bntil it has been tried at least one year. oo Idaho holds her first state election today. All the state officers, the legislature and a member of the House of Representatives for both the present and the succeeding Congress will be chosen. The democrats carried the election for delegate to Congress in 1884 by a majority of 704, but im 1886 the republican candidate was elected by a majority of 426 and again im 1883 by an increased majority of 1,747 im a total vote of 15,555. The vote of Idaho has steadily enlarged during these eight years, and it is expected will show for this year anequal if not greater rate of increase. ‘The chief local issue is the rigid enforcement of the anti-Mormon laws. The principal con- test is over the legislature, which will elect two United States Senators. The republicans expect to make gains owing to the democratic position in Congress on lead ores, which if admitted free would seriously affect the im- portant mining industry of the state. ———— The regret expressed by the employes of the District government at the official loss of Commissiozer Hine, who today surrenders office to his successor, is shared by the people of the District in general. The retiring Commissioner bas been pleasant and tactful in manner, and has shown sound, practical judgment in the Performance of his duties, The new Commis- sioner, Mr. Ross, has been tested in other official capacities and has been found to possess those qualities which promise success in per- forming the duties of the local municipai gov- ernment The community confidently expects able and effective work from him for the advancement of its interests, and it is not likely fo be disappointed. eo According to Mr. De Young, editor of the Ban Francisco Chronicie, it costs $300,000 to be elected to the United States Senate from Cali- fornia. As Mr. De Young is understood to have senatorial aspirations, the question of ex- pense has doubtless been carefully looked into, po that this quotation of market rates may be fegarded as authentic. The person who kills with the gun or pistol that is “not loaded” is deserving of small mercy at law. Mercy should be shown to the public. Delaware, which state has had a statute against the careless handling of firearms since 1884, has just convicted the first offender under t+ It cannot be, however, that he is the only fender in nine long years, ee Frank Lawler has been nominated for sheriff of Cook county by the Chicago democrata Sheriff in 1891; mayor in 1892; governor in 1893; President in 1894. That's the way it is Gone in the democratic party, colonel, and it is b xe A crawl ore of the west wier and "94! "Rah! a The Bismarck enti-socialist law expires to- @ay.
