WASHINGTON MONDAY... — FHE EVENING STAR has a reguiar a Permanent circulation in Washington 1 times larger than that of a) im the city. As a local NEWS paper and Advertising Medi: hus no com: ———— ‘The Bar Association by a voto of more than two to one has virtually renewed its preference for the Court of Appeals system of judicial re- lief for the District. The main object, apart from all possible defect of this or that mode of Jedicial reform, is to obtain from Congress as early as may be some measure by which both the public and the bench and bar will be bene- fited. The Court of Appeals is preferred by the House judiciary committee, and it is not believed that that committee will adopt any ether proposition. A large number of the District lawyers, together with the Dis- trict Supreme Court, favor an enlargement ef the present tribunal. But in face of the danger of losing for a long time, if not indefi- nitely, the chance of getting anything done,the ‘Wisdom of uniting in securing with some modi- fication, perhaps, the bill which can be enacted into law is coming to be generally recognized Either measure would afford the desired relief faa greater or smaller degree. The general disposition is to accept that which is nearest at band—tbat, in a word, which is possible. But it ought to be provided that a majority of the Court of Appeals should be selected from the District. +38 New York is one of the states agitating for good roads and more of them. A greut state Bike New York cannot afford to be bebind in a Matter of such importance, and very much may be predicated upon ber action. In his annual message of 1591 Gov. Hill made a Bumber of suggestions which, with others, have been embodied in @ bill iniroduced in the state senate by Senator Richard:on. Asthe principles of this measure appear to be of wider than local interest it may be well to state briefly a few of the lead- ing provisions. A board of state road commis- sioners, composed of two democrats and two Fepublicans, is created, to which the construc- tion and maintenance of state roads outside of cities and incorporated villages are entrusted. ‘This means a uon-partisan administration— Just as it should be. The subject matter is public, but not political. The bill further pro- Vides for the submission to the people of a Jaw on the referendum principle authorizing #loan of ten million dollars for defraying the cost of such roads The manner of spending the money if authorized is directed by the bill. ‘The state engineer determines the kind and character of roads to be constructed and the contracts are awarded by the commissioners to the lowest bidder. The roads contemplated are to connect the county seats of adjacent counties or other points of greater import- ance and are to run along other lines already existing, so far as practica- ble This seems$ to be for the Purpose of affording a number of competing | lines of intercourse or because the old lines are | Most favorably situated for communication. A variation of the plan may be desirable in communities less thickly populated or where | the wants of communication are more fully to be met by diverging lines. The law provides ‘that any objections made by the inhabitants of ‘county to the line adopted by the state engi- neer may be heard by the commissioners and the proceedings reviewed by the supreme | court. The acquisition by purchase or con- demnation of turnpikes needed for state roads end achange of the penal system permitting ‘the labor of convicts, of paupers and of tramps are all provisions of the proposed measure. ————q6--- It speaks well for the Memphis press that it condemns the outrageous iynching which took | Place in that city last week. It would speak | better for the community concerned most deeply if « public meeting of indignation and Protest against all such proceedings should be held immediately. There are few cities or thickly populated communities in the country, fortunately, where lynch law aid other forms of violence are upheld per se by public senti- ment, and the excuses offered for irregular re- ‘Venge in most lvcalities where it is practiced are Jess and less expressive of the popular opinion. | Meantime no community in the land is guilt- less which fails to put strongly the seal of its Feprobation upon crimes such as those com- mitted by the mob at Memphis. This is a land of law, and there is no piace anywhere in it for lawlessness. a Congress should not fail to send down to the state legislatures the unobjectionabie constitu- tional amendment provicing for the assembling of Congress within two months of its election | and the inaugurating of Presidents in the month of April Legislation should be done by men fresh from the people and not, as is some- | times the case, by legislators whom the peopie | have discarded. ‘The 4th of Mareh incugura- tion has in a hundred years caused more PReumonia, consumption and other diseases, it iesafe to say, than perhaps any other public celebration in all our history. —+ The democratic situation is all «sizzling, | eltzough the nominating convention does not | take piace until the latter part of June. Mean- | time state conventions have been called in at | least the following states: North Dakota March ‘M4, Minnesota Mareh 31, Indiana April | Bois April 27, Michigan, May 4, North ¢ and Georgia May 1% The democrats have nearly three months in which to apply the bi- ebioride of harnion ———-=s____ On April 15 another reciprocity arrangement Will go into effect, shat with Nicaragua Thus, ene by one, the American republics a; to Sustain with the United States commercial rTe- lations of mutual benctit, and ths policy of Mr. Blaine sbows no signs of abatement, whatever its enemies may declare. —_——-+-s____ Mr. Cleveland keeps on ‘layin’ iow an’ sayin’ | Rothin’,” in the plantation language of Lrer Rabbit, or as one of his New Yoru fricnds Las a8, “saying nothing and shooting ducks.” | may be Letterjthan either writing silver letiers or going south on a circular swing. a - ‘The forty-tive per cent of republican voters ip Missouri are entitled to more than one Kiep- Fesentative out of fifteen in Congress.
