THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTOD WEDNESDAY. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that of any other paper tu the city. Ae a local NEWS paver and Advertising Medium it has ne competitor.

On the contrary, the warden and his assistants had made every preparation for the event and it was pronounced those who witnessed it « complete success from a legal, a scicntific or a humanitarian point of view. Pecple may differ as to the vaiue of capital punishment asa deterrent from crime. They do not differ as to the propriety of having such punishment when inflicted imposed with the least cruelty either to the offender himself or to those who may be cognizant of his sufferings. Besides that, the greater number of persons will favor the infliction of punishment in a manner to impress most deeply the majesty of the law upon all disposed to hold it in small regard. The horrible mismanagement per- haps necessarily incident upon the mode of execution by hanging, certainly the usual characteristic of that mode as practiced in this countty, led humane minds to invoke the aid | of practical science and now that the dew- onstration of the value of the new method is| complete the satisfaction with it must be gen- eral. Acalm review of the Sing Sing execu- tioas leaves something to be desired. however — such an application of the electrical machinery ‘as shall make the day and the hour for the ex- eeution more certain. Much has been gained since the Kemmler execution in lessening the horrors attendant upon such an event, for ex- ample the speedier renewal of the current when it is feared life is not yet extinct, and the minimizing of flesh burning. Now if at the next time the prisoners shall not be kept in sus- peuse as to the very moment of taking leave of transient things the system will Lave been rendered measurably perfect. ——— Whatever standard is used in assessing Dis- trict real estate there will undoubtedly be much public discussion and the assessors will not escape criticism by those who favor some | standard not adopted.

The new system requiring the assessors to act asaboard aud not mdependently in viewing property will, it is believed, provide a safeguard against the evil of ineauality. Any reasonably fair standard will, doubtlessly, give satisfaction, provided it is applied equitably m all sections of the city. ——— A brief review of the condition of crops just garnered (as in the case of winter wheat), oF fast maturing (as to other cereals), is interest- ing in view of tho weather prevailing. The winter wheat showed good progress in harvent- ing at lust reports in the northwest and south- west, in northern Texas and other districts the best crop for years having been raised. The spring wheat is in excellent condition. Corn is hardly up to where it ought to be in growth, having had a hard time in Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri, but the general surroundings are comidered favorable for rapid growth. The Yecent cool weather has been good for oats. ‘The fruit crop in California is as good as it ever has been. The probable surplus of the wheat crop for the Pacific northwest, accord~ ing to reports from Oregon, is placed at 23,000,000 bushels: ‘The crop in that region is more abundant than even that of last year. ~ é At this season enormous quantities of bag- gage are being transferred to the railway sta- tions and the attention of the 8. P. C. A. peo- ple iscalled to the manner of overloading the wagons and dragging the life out of the one horse usually attached to these vehicles. In one instance yesterday persons about to leave their hotel refused to let their trunks go on an overloaded wagon pulled by a horse bleeding at the shoulders, and called in a wagon belong- ing to another transfer company. a ee In view of the expected large crops in this country and the crop failure in Europe the threat of the Farmers’ Alliance to hold the crop against speculators for better prices is of more significance than such a warning would possess under ordinary circumstances. There aré@confederated together in the various agri- cultaral bodies nearly six million men who are or fancy themselves deeply aggrieved by the methods of speculation in grain and other farm products. To hold the crop back re- quires money nerve. It the Alliance bas this it may accomplish something, since the cereal crop of India is wholly insufficient for the food supply. Itull depends en the ability of the Alliance to hold the crop until the speculative coon is compelled to come down from his perch fm the tree. ——++= Senator Carlisle of Kentucky hasn't time to go on the stump in bis state, but he has time to announce that he is opposed to the sdoption of the new constitution, which is the pivot of the campaign there.
