THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C, THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1891. “THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: ‘TRE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Cirealation of any Newspaper in the World, and as an Advertising Mediom is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington, The country ewaite with some anxiety the ac- tion of the House upon the subject of finance, ‘as it also awaits the action of the Senate upon the subject of elections for Congress. These two topics have bad a parallel experience up to last midnight in the “upper” chamber, wl by the casting vote of the presiding officer they parted company. The bill providing for the free coinage of silver has passed the Senate by @ good majority, The reported allianee between the silver republicans and the democrats only materialized so far as the older silver state men were concerned. The new state silver republicans voted to consider the elections bill. Whether they will vote for it on its passage remains to be seen. The vote of last night in getting the measure up has encouraged the advocates of the elections bill. It may be that the vote is without further signiticance and that the measure may never be enacted. Atany rate for the present the silver and the election bills are not coupled. ‘The silver measure is at the mercy of the Speaker, the committee of coinage, weights and measures and the House itself. Personal and political matters, questions of precedence and courtesy between the two houses, and, finaliy, between the legislative and the executive brarches of the government may have much to do with the fate of the measure. Meantime the business men throughout the republic are tak- ing a special interest in the decision concern- ing it. The financial situation ix now easier, and disturbing radical legislation of every sortistobe deprecated. Free coinage isa dangerous remedy for financial stringency without concert with other nations. ‘The west is strongly in favor of the free and unlimited coinage of the argent metal and may carry the measure through. But the weight of arguments clearly with those who prophesy evil to the business interests of the country from such legisiation. Financially and commercially the republic would probably Profit the most if the free coinage men should obstruct and kill the elections bill and the elections bill advocates should defeat the free coinage bill. All the business interests now ask is to be let alone. ——__++e— No country in Europe offers a better field for republican propagandixm than Spain. ‘The tendency in the land of Philip II has been steadily toward liberal government ever since the day of Ferdinand VII. and the regency of a queen mother is certainly » good season for making a demonstration. But owing to the caution of Castelnr, the ablest of the republi- can leaders, the monarchy has been acquiesced inasthe best policy for the present. The situation would appear to be undergoing a change, for the government is seriously alarmed at the agitation by the republicans and the expulsion of all suspected persous has been ordered. An Iberian republ the entire peninsuls from the «tr: tartothe Pyrenees is among proba Nevertheless the wise h may decide to wait awhile for a still more favorable moment. + ‘The District Commissioners in response to the reference to them of the Atkinson bill for an opinion say in substance to the President | that they have had objections to the bill which they have expressed to congressional commit- tees, but since Congress has passed the bill they will not inierpoce these objections. It is possibly too much too expect of the Commissioners that they shall in eases like this take the responsibility of counseling & voto, but it is very evident that no informa- tion of the kind sought by the President in making these references is obtained from such Tesponses, and that the daty of investigating and the responsibility of signing or vetoing are thrown entirely upon the President. ———E The legislative deadlocks seem to have ended everywhere except in Connecticut, Montana and Nebraska, but there is dendiock enough in the latter state to supply the entire Union. The demoeratic-republican combination against the farmers in Nebraska appears to have won in securing # favorable decision from the supreme court, but the alliance majority is not disposed to bow the neck to the yoke. In Connecticut the senate swore in the democratic candidates, but the house refuses to recognize their 4u- thority. +2 The United States should not, we are told, object to their owu Supreme Court asa board Of arbitration. Of course not. But an arbi- tration must be binding upon both parties. If England will agree to submit to the decision of the Supreme Court upon the matters in cun- troversy, Uncle Sam will promptly respond: “By all means lee the arbitration proceed !” The first number of the National Citizens’ Aliiance, the official organ of the National Citi- zens’ Alliance, the new organization aftliated with the National Farmers’ Alliance, has been Published in this city. It is edited by Ralph Beaumont. The purpose of the citizens’ alli- ance is to orgunize the people of towns and cities who sympathize with the Farmers’ Alli- a@uce movement and adopt its principles, but Who are ineligible to membership in it. ———Sae - The existing railroads of the city have a Vivid appreciation of the vast benefits con- ferred upon a community by these great com- mon carriers when the extension of their own privileges is asked, but totally fail to see it in that light when new roads ask admission. Com- petition is the life of trade, and if one railroad is good for a city, more are better in the proper proportion. Is the Senator from Kausas who isn't up now for re-election out of plumb with his party. or is bis party: out of piumb with prevailing sentimeut on Suance im Kansas? That Sen- ater read the riot act yesterday, and the Sen- ‘ator from that state who is a candidate for re | election, voiced the same sentiments somewhat more rhetorically. —— England pays the Supreme Court the ex- tremely “delicate compliment” of asking its | opinion in the Lering Sex controversy, pro- | posing to use this opinion to defeat and bumil- jate the executive department of the govern- ment, if favorable, and to repudiate it ae not binding, if unfavorable. 0 The elections bill will be before the Senate to- day, although by very many it was supposed to be dead and embaimed and simply awaling @ convenient time of burial. The Senate is the ‘most surprising legislative body in bistery.
