FFF A oo RRR ChosBY © NOYES rns, Batter. ‘You onght to be glad if you happen to bein F & i itr POPULAR sHO THE EVENING STAR bas a reawinr and town tomorrow. We lave ‘‘started up amother 4 H i permanent circulation in. Washington three times larger than that of any other paper tm the city. Aw a loeal NEWS paper and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. One of the most useful and beneficial institu- tions in the District of Columbia is the Reform chook. Mr. A. J. Falls, the presidentof the board of trustees, has submitted to the Commissioners of the District, estimates of expenses of this in- stitution for the coming fiseal year, and it is hoped that the estimates thus submitted will be favorably reported to Congress and the amount asked for promptly appropriated. The school was organized over twenty years ago, and those who have watched its progress from a handfal of boys supported by private contributions to the present time, when it bas grown to its present proportions and great ‘usefulness, readily see the great importance of liberal appropriations. The school is now crowded far beyond its capacity, and the prosident of the board. under the laws of Con- grees, has been compelied to notify the courts, both police and criminal, that no more boys ean be received. Although both of the judges of the Police court have repeatedly urged the president of the school to receive other boys, be has, much to his regret, been unable to do so. This state of affairs should not ex- ist. Now, instead of boys being sent to the school, where they would be kindly treated, cared for, fed, clothed, educated, taught « useful trade, and turned out into the world with capacity for earning a living for themselves, and becoming useful citizens, they ure relegated to either the work- house or jail, under short terms of sentenco. Its hardly necessary to say that such plices are not suited to that end. There, associated With the most depraved class of eriminals, a abort stay at either of these places hardens and demoralizes them, and when discharged they go out with a brand upon them rarely if ever effaced, and instead of being elevated and be- coming men, they continue on the downward grade until they are lost to themselves and society. Therefore an appeal is made, first to the Commissioners of the District, that they will urge upon Congress the modest appropriations eked for;end that Congress at the proper time will heed the wishes of the board of trustees and the recommendations of the flock” of smalimoncy possibilities for the BOYS aad CHILDREN. It will doubie the inter- ‘est that always centers in Saturday shopping at Livex Sanor Surrs. We've got eighty BLUE and WHITE STRIPED ENGLISH DREKALINEX SAILOR SUITS left.

When land in this region that bas heretofore been amessed as “farming land” at from £25 to ‘$50 per acre, is shown by the testimony of real estate experts to be worth from £1,000 to $10,000 per acre, it will be readily seen how enormously the tax revenues of the District Will be swelled by an assessment based upon these vastly larger values soubligingly certitied to by the owners. Faia ainsi The change in the civil service rules by which examinations for promotion in the de- partment service are to be voluntary, and the selections made from those passing the best ex- aminations, isa change that the public will cor- Gially indorse. This is a fitting supplement to the merit system of examinations for appoint- ment, and its effect cannot fail to be the im- provement of the service. In two departments there have been recently a department system of promotions, by which all employes included im the classitied civil service of the government ere required to be exnmiged, and the entire list of those who pass is certitied, from highest to low- est. This acts to the disadvantage of the most capable by allowing of « choice from those who are least efficient The new plan will work better. ‘The Maryland and Tennessee alliances adopt the subtreasury idea without modification or explanation, and the North Carolina alliance iy nearly unanimous on the matter as submit- ted iu this form: “Shall we not stand by the Ocala platform until we get something Detter?” North Dakota and South Carolina, on the contrary, reject the scheme. It would seem that with serious divisions on the subject in several states, that the ware house schedule would have to be recast entirely with the ware Bouse left out. This would be an agricultural “Hamlet” with Hamlet omitted from the cast. The domestic breadstuils movement is of in- forest just now. The total exports from this country of barley, corn. corn-meal, oats, oat- meal. rye, wheat, and wheat-tlour for the month ending July 3i, 1891, were $16,379,291, against ely. 69 tor the same mouth in 1890. But the eaports for the seven mouths’ period end- ing July Sl, 1591, were #54, 709,595, while the ex- ports for the seven months of the previous year, ending July 32, were 242,773,352. These Biguresshow aconsulerable falling off in the longer periud, with « nearly equal gain for the suorter. ——————t * ‘The Canadian government docmn't scem sat- feticd with the imported varieties of erooked- Bess that it gets from this country.
