‘THE EVENING STAR. |?: sigigsesgee: WASHINGTON: Koes Pauswacr, 7TH AND E STS. ¥.W., LEADERS OF LOWEST PRICES, ‘Washington is the convention city, and the fat should not be forgotten in the discussion now going on asto whether Chicago or some ether place should entertain the two great na- tienal party conventions next year. Washing- ton, always the resort of politicians at other times, is given the go-by at the time of the mational convention. It cannot be that the national city, with more than a quarter million of people and more to show than any of the other American cities, is considered too small by the political managers. It ought not to Le ECHOES FROM ALL OVER THE STORE. RUBBER GOODS DEPARTMENT. said that a city which holds all other national | 7° Atomisers, bara rubber tube, O01¥ esecseons QB bodies with the greatest ease is unable to find a Paarurwr. room or attractions for the statesmen who “fix things” for the voters of the republic. Why should the committees hunt America over with & microscope to discover the hottest, the most inaccessivie, the least artistically attractive city, the city charging the biggest prices for the most indifferent fare, and there pitch the tent and swelter and famish for three days or a week, as the case may be? All the time here rates on, not, however, 20 low as to preci Dest goods, In this department the line ie Grawn; no competition when prices are less than pure drugs can be bousbt for, Ai thie stage ‘we are not the strictly is the broad and beautiful Potomac, here is the cooling breeze, here is the wide strect, and here are the national sights, the national at- mosphere, the national feeling, the cheap and ample accommodations, in one word the ideal attractions and advantages of a convention city. If it be objected again that there are no buildings here suitable for holding the ses- sions of such immense bodies it can be said ia reply that neither were there in Chicago, St. Louis, Baltimore, Cincinnati or New York until they were erected for that or similar purposes, Decide that Washington is a desirable place for the national nominating convention—and why should such decision not be made?—and the building or buildings will very soon be ready, Those who attend the great conventions would be delighted with the change and it is probable that these bodies, being here freer than else- where from local pressure, would be less em- barrassed in their work, would be followed by Jess dissatisfaction with the influence of strong local sentiment. and would perhaps in time show a marked improvement in the character of the results of their labors which they pre- sent to the people fur acceptance or rejection. Under the patriotic inspirations of the repub- lie's historic capital the parties might—well, there is no telling until itis tried what great things they migbt do. —$—$seo—____ Some wonder is expressed that the only par- ties to the bacearat seandal who came out ahead were the lawyers. However, in this par- ticular matter the people share with the bar the benefits of the occasion—the people, as dif- ferentiated from the occupants of Tranby Croft aud the frequenters of the Aseot race course. What they secure will be better seen later in the season, if the ominous voice of the British public as expressed in the court room (not by the judge or the jury, however) and by the newspapers since the verdict ivat all sig- Bificaat. The doings of royalty have before now been the undoing of royalty. —$$<+oo—— ‘The Philadelphia Ledger's opinions are al- ways deliberately formed and intelligent, and twa local matter such as the present financial upturning in Philadelphia its judgment is of special interest and value. Mr. Wanamaker’s statement concerning his connection with the wrecked banks and officials receives from the Leiger the following indorsement: “It is very clear and complete. It covers every story, every accusation, every slander, and almost every piece of thoughtless gossip in which his name has been brought into ques- tion since the beginning of the sensation pub- lications in counection with the faijure of the Keystone Bank down to this time. It is not only complete as to all those poin entirely satisfactory and coneinsi Mlinois does well in passing a pretty good reform ballot law, ill in cutting down her ap- propriation for the world’s fair from a million to eight hundred thousand dollars. ‘This isnot very much more per capita of population than half what Pennsylvania contributed to the cen- tennial of American independenee. The two states had lightly lese than four millions of people each at the time the respective appro- priations were voted and the Keystone com- monwealth contributed a million and a half doliare to the centenary of ‘76. en Democratic constitution building in Ken- tuciky does not appear to be so good in the-rear view as it did in the front view to Kentucky democrats and they seem disposed to kill their own work. Could @ republican fly have got into the ointment unbeknownst, or are the Blue Grass democrats’ constitutional ideas volatile? ———+-s—___ The Tennessee legislature has passed a bill giving colored people their own exclusive car on every passenger train, and any white person attempting to occupy it, except when there is no room elsewbere, will be prosecuted. The whites may contest the point under the civil Fights bill if they desire. ————— The President finds it difficult to decline— and he has not yet declined—the recent invita~ tions he has received to visit the expositions in Raleigh, N.
