NorEs = ee THE EVENING STAR has a regu! permanent circulation in Washington three tes larger than that ofany other paper In the city. As = lecal NEWS paper and Ad- Yertising Medium it bas no competitor. Foner ernie rte nn ‘From the day when Mr. Cleveland was fo ‘the second time elected to the Previdency it has been insisted by those who were to a greater or Jess extent in his confidence that the adminis- tration would be more conspicuously business- like than any preceding it, and most of the hap- penings since the fourth of March support quite strongly the ante-inaugural prophecies. But of all the gratifying movements instituted by the chief magistrate none have in them such . Promises of good government as can be found in the contract generally believed to have been made between President Cleveland and Civil Service Commissioner Roosevelt. As the coun- ‘try well knows, Commissioner Roosevelt is a republican. It is also known that he placed his resignation in the President's hands some time ago, ana the gossips have it that he insisted more than once on its acceptance. Now comes offi- cial information to the effect that Commissioner Roosevelt will continue, at the urgent request of the President, to serve the country in that capacity for which his ability, energy and honesty so thoroughly fit him. Doing this means that Mr. Roosevelt has laid aside, as of minor importance, ambitions that had every appearance of early fructitication. The repub- lican gubernatorial nomination in New York ‘was within easy reach, and although at this dis- tance from the campaign results could not clearly be foreseen there are indications to | encourage the belief that the honor would not be a barren one. In connection with Mr. Roosevelt's renewal of his cotenant with prac- tical civil-service reform a solidly-founded im- pression exists to the effect that before con- venting to continue his connection with the commission he was informed by the President that during the coming two or three years the principles of civil-service reform would be applied toevery branch of the government to which wach application was possible. ‘The impres- sion—for no direct statement to that effect has yet appeared—is by no means an unreasonable ‘one, for, with trivial exceptions, President Cleveland has done nobly in behalf of the re- generation which ix going to make our public service a credit to the intelligence of the nation whose affairs give it employment. Much oppo- sition will contend against the new order of things, and those who can find no effective argument against the system will snecr and Jeer at its civilizing progress, but the day of ‘complete triumph is not far distant, and when it comes Commissioner Roosevelt will conclude that what may now seem to be sacrifices could not possibly have worked out for him such success as will be consequent upon thorough purification of the national civil serviee. —__+ +2 —__ ‘The Coramissioners have notified the liquor ealers selling under the old, repealed licenses and in violation of the new law that they must fn ten days bring themselves under the pro- visions of the new law by applying for Hteep-ce fn accordance with its provisions. The Com- missioners have decided that it is about time to put a stop to Sunday sales and sales to minors by those who have no legal right to sell liquor on any day to anybody. Nearly the en- tire number of local liquor dealers are selling outside of the new law and the Sunday sales of which so much complaint is made cannot be punished as such. But the Sunday dealers can be prevented from selling at all, and sales by them can be punished without regurd to the day on which they are made, The Commis- miners evidently intend that the sale of liquor in the District shall not be lawless and unre- Stricted, bat shall be safeguarded by all the wise restrictive reguistions which the law im- poses. — see Of much more importance than most of the “farries” whicu occasionally agitate Wall street is the disturbance which commenced yesterday and continues today. A vigorous assaalt was made on industrial stocks, an assault to which the bulls were for o time indifferent but the Steadily continued effort at depression has re- moved the briefly-apathetic feeling and threat- ens todo serious damage. Rumors of heavy failures are current and should any firm of importance go down there is every prob- ability of a crash which will be heard the whole country over. Confidence has been so shaken that with present financial conditions great temporary disturbance in com- mercial cireles—and who is outside of these— is unfortunately toc probable. That the per- turbed state of mind is largely due to foolish legislation, will hardly be disputed by any one who is not rabid in his advocacy of silver and ‘that there will be dacker days in Wall street and in every other street. unless the next Congress brings about a change, is as good as an assured fact. es This evening a number of citizens will meet to discuss the best means for bringing about a grand public demonstration by which the lay- ing of the cornerstone of the United States capitol may be fitly celebrated. ‘That stone is at the southeast corner of the great structure and it is, therefore, highly appropriate that the East Washington Citizens Association should take the initiative. The century will be com- Pleted September 18. and on thet date the entire city ought to remember, with gladness and decoration, the many locally-desizable happen- ings consequent upon the ocenrence around the memory of which the festivities will cluster, The proposition is a good one and a broad one. Itshould be supported by every man, woman and child in the District of Columbia, —— ‘There is some apprehension that investiga tions are occupying so much of the weather Durean’s time that « good deal of our weather Feaches us without being properly edited. see Lawsnits over willsare expensive, but they give peopie the luxury of saying what they think of one another. _— —— obi out with a search warrant for a technical coustruction of the phrase “Sunday closing.” +e The Czar and Czarina hav influenza. Up to dat Deen associated with any nihilistic plot. a in the Canary Islands and five thousand men in Spain are on the point of embarkation for Cuba looks as though it might be a refutation of the report which describes the insurgents as de- | feated and dispersed. The precise cause of the present outbreak is as yet unknown, but the probabilities are that the tyranny of a Spanish official brought about the explosion. It should be understood that there is nothing like local self government on the island, but that, on the contrary, all power is vested in one man—the captain general. He governs through subordi- nates who are responsible only to him, and as he answers tothe far-away Spanish ministry for his conduct of affairs the people of Cuba have less to say about matters of immediate interest to themselves than have the resi- dents of the District of Columbia That the revolution was in some respects premature is admitted by Cubans resident in this country who were preparing to aid their illy-governed fellow-countrymen. Men, money and the munitions of war are now gathered at convenient points on our extreme southern coast, and although the leaders declaro that nothing will be done that can in any way com- Promise the United States, it is certain that a force of thoroughly equipped fighters will en- deavor to evade the guard boats and sail for Cuba at the earliest possible moment. This government can not and will not wink at sucha Proceeding, but with national sentiment so strongly favorable to Spanish overthrow in Cuba it will be somewhat astonishing if the Florida contingent does not succeed in evading our government representatives and in getting away. ——_+ e+ __-__ Ever since the appeal of Carlyle Harris was placed before Goy. Flower popular opinion has inclined to the belief that the death sentence would surely be commuted. A few enthusiasts even went so far as to declare that complete pardon was easily possible if not probable. Today there comes from Albany an official statement which removes the last hope and makes it certain that unless nature or suicide interferes Harris will diea much more easy death than that which cut short the career of the wife he is declared to have murdered. Every variety of human agency has been employed to prove the prisoner's innocence and to touch sympathetic hearts, but they proved to be utterly ineffective where their authors desired | them to be most potent, and at the end of a lengthy struggle Carlisle Harris can do no | more than await the speedy coming of that punishment which the lawabiding have decreed to be right and just. ————-e-___.
