4 (HE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. February FRIDAY. 1893. = ~ - CROSBY 8. NOYES ‘THE EVENING STAR has a regular permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that of any other paper ia city. As « lecal NEWS pnper and Ad- has ne competitor. = Some of these dars, when our national legis- lature bas in it fewer politicians and more statesmen. Congress will give serious attention to at least one of the many propositions which have for their object the lengthening of the Presidential term of office. Sexsion after ses- sion seee the birth of » bill providing for the submission to the country of a constitational amendment on that really important subject, Dut these efforts rarely reach the stage of de- bate. Why such reasonable ideas as the one which makes the term six years and renders re- election nnpossible do not receive consideration fe something of a mystery. Everybody admits that presidential elections are too frequent for the business welfare of the country; everybody who isanybody thinks the disturbances should be as far apart as possible; the weight of public sentiment is really opposed to second terms; ‘and yet noneof the party leaders seem willing to bring the matter up for serious consideration. Perhaps it might be just as well, when the subject comes up, to pay some attention to the psoposition which would abolish the cumbrous ‘and antiquated electoral college and have the President elected by the direct vote of the peo- ple. This method would in many respects be superior to that now employed. Agitation im favor of a six-year term, of the direct vote, and of the making of ex-Presidents Senators-at-large for life is proceeding in the Wisconsin legis- Jature at this time. To the latter suggestion there will doubtless be much opposition, the contention being based upon an idea that such disposition | of ex-Presidents would be the establishment of a civil pension list, but it will hardly be denied that ex-Presidents could, by reason of their White House experiences, render the nation very valuable services, This subject is one which might with perfect propriety be debated and settled by the wholly democratic Congress which will, for at least two years, control legis- lation. Mr. Cleveland can never again be elevated to the chief magistracy, so he need ave no delicacy in urging a reform that would | really reform something. — +e = —__ People who love justice have ample ground for outers in the case of Lizzie Borden, charged with the murder of her parents and now cou- fined in a Connecticut jail. So farasany one who bas direct evidence against the prisoner, yet the authorities will neither try the case nor accept bail. In this connection the Baltimore Sua very properly calls attention to the sixth amend- ment to the Constitution of the United States, which guarantees in all criminal prosecutions the right of the accused “to a speedy and public trial by an impartial jury” and “to be con- fronted with the witnesses against him.” But | in this there seems to be little probability of immediate trial, while the appearance of wit- nesses whose testimony amounts to anything is | apparently impossible. In view of theseappear- ances it may not be easy for the state to, excuse its torture of the woman who was in- dicted on nothing more than flimsy circumstan- | tialevidence. Those who bave watched the affair from the time of Lizzie Borden's arrest are in- | lined to the belief that the prosecution, by | long imprisonment, hopes to extort a confession | from the unhappy prisoner. Such conduct does not accord either with the law or the dictates of | It is to be hoped that the District Commis- sioners will not weary of well-doing in connec- ‘tion with their effort to have street cars—and especially cable and electric cars— fitted with | feuders which will render impossible such a horrible death as came to Lieut. Reynolds a few days ago. That the ruling powers mean busi- ness is evidenced by the fact that Commissioner Rossell is now in Boston engaged in availing himself of the experience gathered in that community. There a commission experimented with a large number of fenders and finally se- lected one that seemed to be in every way satis: factory. Capt Rosell will see how the ap- proved machine works and may, when he re- turns, have suggestions capable of immediate spplication In whatever is done the railroads | companies should co-operate heartily—the pub- Tic expects them to and there should be no effort to evade responsibility. —_+ e+ ___ Young men who have just commenced to find out what life is may profitably study the career of Rufus Hatch, whose death took place yester- day. Possessed of the money making talent and of « physique which supported a wonder- fully active brain Rafus Hatch became noted as = daring speculator. Had he been of the cold, calculating, mathematical variety which found ppeared knows there is not a scrap of | | etsarty apparent the Krapps commenced to build workmen's homes and today their em- | ployes are probably more nearly happy than are | | the men who draw wages from any other | capitalistic source in the world. The rents are ‘as low as they possibly can be, ranging from |€15 per anpum for frame dwellings of |two rooms up to $82.50 per annum for high grade six-room dwellings with cellar. Co-operative stores have assisted materially in making the experiment popular and successful, for the total profits are annually divided among the regular customers in proportion to the amount of their purchases, Most of the em- ployes in these stores are widows and daughters Of deceased workmen, so another perplexing feature of the problem—that of possible female Pauperism—bas been removed. Unmarried workmen board at the “Menage,” where the Price of lodging. meals and washing is but twenty cents per day. The food ix sound, well- plentiful. Strict medical super- rywhere maintained by @ board of physicians, and the result of their energy and of improved habitations is seen in the fact that the death rate has been reduced from 5 per cent toan average of 1.23 percent. The aver- age for the German empire is 4 percent. Sick persons receive all attention in a fine hospital and those who are not sick are encouraged |to take advantage of ample and inexpen- sive bathing facilities. Every employe holds life insurance and is insured against accident | and sickness; the two sstier forms being re- quired bylaw. The cost is divided between employer and employed, but the Krupps have been much more liberal than the law contem- | plated, they having endowed the beneficiary | propositions to the extent of more than balf million dollars, The sum of $125,000 has been devoted to the founding of a building association. Pensions are provided in cases | where the legal pension is technically not pro- [curable or where it is insufficient to prevent | suffering. Common and industrial schools are | supported by the firm, as are also the churches and their pastors. The learning of trades by and practical preparation for matrimony by the girls are encouraged, with good resulta. | Libraries have been provided and every sug- gestion that bad in it the probability of better conditions received fair trial. Whether Krupp methods would be successful in America isan unanswered question, but that the investments | at Essen have yielded vastly profitable returns not be doubted for ® moment. a It is pity that more of the energy and | enthusiasm which are devoted by Elbridge T Gerry of the New York Society for the | Prevention of Cruelty to Children to the pro- | tection of children who earn a living on the | stage could not be applied to the relief of the actual and awful distress that existe among the little ones in the slums of every great city. ee Having extracted about all the interest there | can possibly be in the name “Hoke” the publi will probably return to a consideration of Pade- rewski’s sore finger.

War has always been regarded asa Prolific source of human misery, but here isa ease in which the manufact are of destructive ‘weapons—an industry essential to milit strife—results in the elevation of thousands. From Mr. Lindsay's report it seems that the total namber of men e-aployed by the Kruppe and affected by their social experiments is 25,200, with their families amounting to 87,500 Persons; a sufficient number to thoroughly sest the plan.
