4 “THE EVENING STAR. FRIDAY - CROSBY 5. NOTES... THE EVENING STAK bas a reaular and permanent circulation tn Washington three times larger than that of any other paper Ii thecity. As a local NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Medium it bus wo competitor. That ive document—the Consti- tution of the United States—gives to Congress exclusive legislative control over the District of Columbia. Had the framers of the instrument been gifted with prophetic foresight they surely would have inserted somewhere a saving clanse by means of which the District could save itself when Congress was more than ordinarily vicious or ignorent, or both.

Tux Seasons Reravs TIFTHERE 18 NO TELLING ABOUT T bdoys-thetr clothes are apt to “‘come F 0 erat? when you least expect ft Ite partly their feult—scmetimes the clothes’ fsult. | That depends upon what kind of clothes they are. Everybody says OUR kind Insts long- est They ought © to-—there's care enough spent on them. But they of the House who hed failed to attract much attention during the major portion of the last eemsion esme to the conclusion that a trifle of bubbly reputation might be made out of the Bomestead troubles. They came to the con- aston that everlasting fame wes awaiting them {f they could only succeed in having the na- tdonal legisiature declare = boycott on the Piuk- exton Detective Agency because that agency had sent 900 watchmen up the Monongshela for the riotous strikers to shoot at. An effort was made to sttech to the sundry civil bill an amendment which no court of law could have done anything but laugh at. This endearor to create campaign material having resolved fiteelf into food for merriment, the biters, hav- ing @isposed of so much of the provender as they could not chew, decided to see what effect the remainder would have upon that unfor- tunate infant—the District of Columbia. Ass result of all thi labor it is now provided by law that the District authorities must not under any circumstances employ an attache of the Pinkerton or any other private detective agency. With every inaugural period snd on every oceasion when there is a great multitude here there comes to this city innumerable “crooks,” who expect to at least make their ex- penses out of the careless and the unsophisti- ested. In times past the police department has met these emergencies by employing some of the best detective talent in the country to serve until the crowd had departed. These men knew ail the professional thieves and con fidence operators on this continent and by their ce scared away thousands of the light fingered of both sexes. According to the new law no expert private detectives ean be em- ployed, so the actively dishucest may rejoice. Of course, the police force wil! do all it ean to pro- tect the public pocket book, but there will be no, tears shed in Washington if a few selected Con- gresemen should happen to be “touched” while the Grand Arms is here or during the inaugu- ral ceremonies next March. Great is the con- gressional boycott and helpless is the District of Columbia! —— Attorney Dumont, in order to obviate the ruling in the Naa case, frames his informations, as already winted in Tux Stan. s0 a8 to show that the defendant engaged in retailing liquor “before paying the license tax;” further, that he is limble to the District for the license tax and to pay a fine or penalty for having failed to pay the license tax before engaging in busi- ness, &c. The public may well indulge the hope that his action will stand the test finally which it has stood so far, in securing a number of convictions and the submission of other hood will find evidence for the police to act on, may induce the giving of evidence on which prosecution can be made successful. The trouble, it is well known, is in obtaining cred- ‘iblewridence in these cases. The public in all these cases, both of sale without license and sale within the one-mile limit, is concerned to have the violations of law stopped as soon as pos sible. If the evil effects of the failure of Con- gress, by the action of two members of the House, to pass the license measure can be reduced to the minimum by concurrent sction ef the people, the police and the prosecuting officer, then the matter is not in as bad shape asit might have been placed by this disreput- able action of Congressmen subservient to the whisky ring. -——_ _++2____ ‘The government statistician in his monthly erop report takes issue with the statement of ‘the New York Sun with regard to a shortage in whesteo far asto maintain thet there is no need at present for apprehension. ‘The official report states that spring wheat shows a slight falling off in some localities, with a slight ad- Yance in South Dakota and Nebraska, The con- ditions are generally high in the mountain states.
