THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON WEDNESDAY THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Ciresiation of any Newspaper in the Werld, end as an Advertising Medinm ts werth Down at the bottom of things is the original in- ventor, the man who, by the friction of two pieces of wood, first ascertained that there was fire elsewhere than in the heart of man and the physical center of the universe. Then came the carly agriculturists ‘with their plow thongs made of hardened timber tickling the hard surface of the earth in such wise as to cause the laughing soil to give forth of its resources an abundance of provision for primeval man. It was not until cities were formed as nuclei for embryo states that inventive art in its true sense was developed, ax other things are devel- ‘oped, out of the necessities and wants of man. Consider the stride from the primitive plow of the Akkadians to the McCormick reaper, from the burnt-brick libraries of Babylon and Nineveh to the superb treasures in movable types and sumptuous bindings that stand, piled tier on tier, in the British Museum and the Li- brary of Congress. Looking at civilization in this way and reflecting how impressive even commonplace facts are when lifted into a philo- sophie system as indices of progress, the prim- acy of the framers of constitutions that set pat- terns of civic grandeur for ages and of patriot scldiers may even seem dubious. Hence, when the chief promoters of American inventive art_the inventors and designers and those who put their inventions and designs into every day use—come to Washington to celebrate the cen- tennary of the patent system in the United States, it is everywhere rezarded as a most sig- ralevent. This isa practical people—this an age of grand material results, Here, at the po- litical center of the hemisphere, at the capital of the great republic, distinguished for its in- dustrial advancement as well as ite intellectual “If they come from Saks? =— i— they're right"— * —in everyway. ‘THE TIMES, ent een i ea — pee os —t— FPRASHION 18 4 CAPRI- ieee ¥ livelier in ladies’ WRAPS and SUITS this season than it has been before for yearn, ~ .-Faet of the matter is the copyists follow genius 80 closely that they drive the originators to thelr wits’ ends. for new features... i —j— has proven a “‘sweet-titter” though—because we're getting ‘Some extreme creations in cou- Sequence that are rare con- ceits, TEYTHE “PIRATES” FEED F the others_but we have T taken OUR stock from men who give these bright thoughts their fret shape.

Lafayette in 1824 was the distinguished guest of the republic in the Lour of its morning en- thusiam. Patrioti*m, now as then, mingles with gratitude in our tender of bospitality. The noble Frenchman aided Washington in freeing America from political thralls. These native Lafayettes of industry have aided our later loaders and statesmen in breaking Amer- ica’s bonds of commercial dependence. a Death was busy yesterday. There fell before his sickle such men as ex-Congressmen Erritt of Pennsylvania and Gartrell of Georgia and Gov. Fowle of North Carolina. But the death that Will make the deepest popular impression is that of Phineas Taylor Barnum. greatest of show- men and one of the most enterprising of Ameri- cans. His list of notable achievements is the history of the modern circus and museum. ‘The life of Barnum, as told by himscif, is as striking « performance as any of his other feate. His genius and fame were universal. He was at home in the cottage and the palace and made himself solid with the savant ag with the child. No matter if he were palming off nurses of George Washington and woolly horses from the west on an unsuspecting pub- lie, or introducing Tom Thumb to Windsor's royalty or Jennie Lind to the sovereigns of America, he did it well and he did it as no other man could have done. The one Barnum isdead. The world will never look upon his Like. ——__-+-+_____ ‘The liberalizing of politics and trade on this €ontinent, the Australian confederation, the so- called demceratic propaganda of the Roman pontiff in Europe are all movements of widest interest and far-reaching cousequences. It docs not matter if, as to the first named, the imme- diate result is not either the perfect pacifica~ tion of all the nations of Latin-America or the definite establishment of the principle of free trade between American nations, or as to the second that the commonwealth owes depend- ence in some things to the mother country, or as to the third that there isa degree of exag- geration as to details. ‘The lever of liberalism is working from Patagonia to Hudson's bay, from Norway to Australia. It shakes the thrones of kings and shatters the fetters of ignorance. += Easily first lawyer of the United States Sen- ate, perhaps also first lawyer at the Supreme ‘Court bar, and certainly one of the greatest of American Senators, George F. Edmunds re- tires at » moment when his fame is secure. His Position is won among the most eminent men in national public life that America has pro- duced. The withdrawal of Mr. Edmunds at ‘this time, although there have been recently some hints that he meditated such a step, was generally unexpected. Thet ill bealth should be one of the grounds of his retirement is pain- ful intelligence, and it is hoped that rest and a balmier winter climate will svon restore him to bis accustomed vigor. ————>-2s—____ ‘The northern infiuence is becoming more active in the south than ever, and the coldest weather ever known at this season is reported in Georgia and Florida with a big snow in Ala- Dama.
