4 “THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: oe — Of conrse there wil! be no reprisals for the New Orleans massacre upon Americans in Rome, as threatened. In the first place the Italians cannot find American cut-throate in Korae whose killing would be a fair offaet for the shooting of the Mafia ssanssins. They would be compelled to destroy some of the wealthy American visitors upon whom the people of Rome live. They wonld frighten away all of this clues of persons. They would Kill the goose that layx the golden egg for Rome's support. Inconsiderate action by Italy will also surely result in the exclusion from American ports of the criminals whom she sends to the galleys.at home bat apparently protects with sensitiveness and vigor abroad. ‘When America is no longer the damping ground of refuse humanity and Rome is no longer the annual disiribation point of tens of thousands of American dollars, eacp nation can retain and protect its own. The republic will have its people and save its money, and Italy wiil enjoy the privilege of fostering and protecting within her borders the cut-throate and murderous conspirators of the Mafia, whom she has hereto- fore sent to an unsympathetic republic to be hanged by a sheriff or shot bya mob. Rome Will substitute as.an element of ber population Sicilian Mafia for visiting Americans. This re- Public will endure the sugzested change with amazing fortitude. - — The New York Wordl complains of Snperin- tendent Porter of the Census Bureau because he finds that the average price of mules is 71.88, while that of horses is only @67. If the World will send out a commissioner to price horses and mules in this country it will dis- cover that while in the cities faacy prices ore paid forhorses and the modest and nornamental mule is at a discount, in the vast territory side of city limits the mule is considerably above par, and that whereas a pair of average work horses may be bought » $100 to $200, a pair of mules is worth double that. And this is because the mule is harder than the horse. is more easily broken, lives longer. requires less care and is in every way a more democratic ard less perticular animal than his distingaisned baif brother. baexemamemee oer’ a One of the remarkable intricacies of the law as applied to the New Orleans matter may thus | be stated briefly: While the United States government does not for passport purposes | treat asa full-tledged citizen the foreign-born resident of this countr; who has simply filed notice of intention to take out naturalization papers, it considers him as citizen enough to be | drafted into the military service. The act of February 24, 1864, in its eighteenth section, pro- vides that such persons where they have voted iu astate or federal election shall be considered. our- | where from | Panssors For 1891. ‘The fashionable lady of London must needs have Parasol expressly for coaching or carriage use.

It is comparatively easy to corrupt the corruptible men in a small body of electors where the prize to be obtained is daz- zling and the pecuniary means of the persons who seek this prize either for themselves or others are ample. The people in mass are less corruptible than their representatives. A few more bribery seanlals in state legislatnres at senatorial elections will give an irresistible im- petus to the movement in favor of the popular election of United States Senators. ——_—_ + In ascare head line over the report of the cont strange killing of two young di students in Cincinnati, the Enquirer asks “Why Did They Die?"
