THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTO? THE EVENING STAR bas a reqular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that of any other paper tm the city. As a local NEWS paper and Advertising Medium it bax no competitor. The interstate commerce commission as eon- stituted by the latest appointments is a strong bedy. Ex-Senator McDill and Judge Lindsey are well-known men, whose training as lawyers ‘and experience in public office point them out asbaving the requisite acquirements for the position, and Mr. Morrison (whois reappointed) has already justified the wisdom of his original appointment. ‘The commission has all along been equal in the character and ability of ite members to any of the government's judicial tribunals. The first chairman, Judge Cooley, is everywhere regarded as one of the most em- iment of American jurists and writers on con- stitutional and municipal law, and several of hhis associates have been scarcely less noted for learning and practical ability. It is a matter of congratulation that the commission is to be kept up to a high state of efficiency. No branch of the public service calls for finer qualifica- tious in those who administer its duties. The value of the interstate commerce law very largely depends on the personnel of the inter- state commerce commission. (a According to the decision of the Connecticut supreme court in the important matter of the governorship Gov. Buikeley’s right to holt ‘over uatil his successor is qualified is affirme?. ‘This probably provides for his retention in Office during the entire term, since no suc- cessor can qualify until it is ascertained by concurrent action of the houses of the legisla- tarofwho has been elected, and so far the houses, representing different parties, have not come fo an agreement as to the person who wus elected. But the law restricts the declaration of election by the legislature to the | secon I day of the session, and the time has pass:d and no declaration has been made. ‘There is no probability of any action to be ‘tuken by the legislature at its reconvening to- day. To prevent any such miserable failures as this Connecticut should repeal her system of electing state officers and adopt that which, obtaining in nearly all the states, requires only # plurality and not # majority vote for the suc- cessfal candidates. ee The evil of the gerrymander grows apace. ‘When the republicans held Ohio before they apportioned the state sothat they had fifteen out of twenty-one seats. The democrats in the last Iegislatare reversed these figures in the appor- tionment act under which the Fifty-second Con- gress waselected, or ratber they got fourteen ont | “ of twenty-one members of the House. The bill introduced yesterday to reapportion the dis tricts so as to give the republicans all except | four members is perhaps the most radical | ever submitted in that state on such asubject It seems like commending to ‘the opposition their own medicine as adminis- | tered both in Micbigan and Ohio. Perhaps the only way ever to reduce measurably the gerry- | mander evil is for the dominant party in some state to gobble up.every district and thus arouse public sentiment by a display of abnor- mal wickedness, ee ‘The effect of such weather as this on the average country road may be conceived. It suggests the necessity for a road system every- where something like that which obtairs in New Jersey. That state bids fair to become ‘the scientific road-building commonwealth in therepublic. It hasan excellent road Iaw and the comnty of Union has become u model for the larger Union of states. But New Jersey never tires in such matters, and therefore an improved road convention bas been called to meet st Trenton on the 2ist instant. The states that have as yet done nothing should imitate the zeal of the htde community be- tween the Hodson and the Delaware. +2 ‘The newspaper return does not always repre- sent the same value as the electoral return. It i+ interesting if true, however, and a man may Believe or disbelieve, whereas in the case of the offictal figures he is bound to accept them if be can't override them by a return of the courts. This leads up gently to the New York Wori£s poll of the New York legislature on Presidential preferences. Of 83 democrats itil gete 58, Cleveland 4; of 75 republicans Plaine bas 50 and Harrison 6. The non-com- mittal democrats are 26, republicans 17. = When Representative Kilgore reached fame's pinnacle by a door-destréying kick there was bet little adverse comment. Mr. Kilgore’s kick at the starving Russians is a more serious quatter. Suffering humanity, no matter where at chances to be located, deserves more con- sideration than does an inanimate scrap of pine, even if the pine is = part of the House of Kepresentatives. A kicker ought to discrimi- nate. —————<-s—____- It looks now as though Senator Allison would have to be at once chairman of the appropria- thons committee and of the subeommittee on sppropriationsfor the District. ‘The additional burden will be no smail affair, but the Senator from Iowa is eq. to the task. The interests of the national capital are sure to receive intel- ligent and considerate attention at ihe bands of Mz.

Wo have today placed on sile 13,000 yards, about 250 pieces, of the Finest Zevhyr Ginghams ever produced by American looms. There have been rumors current for the past year or two that esrtain Scotch ginghain manufacturers were about to establisu their looms on this aide of the Atiuntic in order to more faily ‘rasp the American trade. The regult of this has been to spur onward to a higher desree of perfection our already meritorious American mills, and consequently there is seem today a fabrie which for attractiveness, color, style, texturo and finish isexcelied nowhere. In addition to these the colors are made permanent by the use of every improved method of dyeing, dye stuffs, dc. , so that they are ABSO- LUTELY FAST. ‘There is only one good and valid reason why intending yur- chasers should buy new Ginghams before they are needed for actual wear, and that is that the experience of the past years teaches us that THE BEST AND CHOICEST DESIGNS ARE ALWAYS PLACED ON THE MARKET EARLY, and that i€ iv almont impossible to wet these styles later in the season.
