THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: MONDAY THE EVENING STAR has the fallest Local Cirentation of any Newspaper in the World, and as on wertising Medi bs worth more than all the other papers published in Washingt: Pile onto. ROE As indications of the policy of the adminis tration the sections of the President's message which refer to the McKinley Dill, reciprocity and the federal elections Dill will doubtless be read with the gr t legisintion of the recent session dorsed, and neither windom ne coveret in the suggestion that the mbject of tariff revision shall be again opened before the Jaw has had a fair trial. It ix pointed out that in the price of articles wholly un- affected by the tariff act was by many hastily ascribed to that act, and enlargement of the currency by the silver bill is mentioned ag one of the causes of the genera! npward ten- dency in trade and prices. The President eon- tends that the probibitory effect upon importa- tions imputed to the act is not justified, the imports at the port of New York for the firat three weeks of November being nearly 8 per cent greater than for the same period in 1889 amd 29 per cont gr ain the same period of 1888.

No backward step is taken in tariff legislation, though ted that the fullest possible develop- ment will be givea to the reciprocity feature. Nor doe: the President falter in his approval of ions bill. His comments upon it are 1 pointed. So far as the message sounds the keynote of the republican poliey that porty will stand firmly by the positions Which it has assumed upon pending issues, and upon the same battle ground seek to convert the defeat of this year into a vietory in "92. ——— The Commissioners in their annual report submitted today disease the finaneial condition of the District with ability and make some ex- cellent suggestions concerning the best meth- ods of increasing its revenues and diminishing its expenditures, so that its most urgent needs can be satisfactorily met.
