4 o_O THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C, MONDAY, MAY 15. 1893-TEN PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. | MONDAY. ‘May 15, 1893. Editor. THE EVENING STAR basa regular and permanent circulation tz Washington three times larger than that of any ether paper in the city. Aaa lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Medium It has no competitor. ‘The average observer of passing events will ‘not be surprised at the intimation that China Proposes to go into the anti-American business. Of course, that great nation will not have real reason on its side, but its logic will be super- ficially s success. That a great influx of Chinamen into this country would be unde- sirable and even dangerous can hardly be questioned by any student of history and the cautious defender of our repnblic sees that some measare of exclusion—applicable to all unassimilative immigration—is an absolute ne- cessity. But these conclusions afford no de- fense for the conduct of individuals toward those who came here in response to an omnibus invitation. From the day when the first shipload of Mongolians ar- rived in Sen Francisco down to the present time it has been customary and almost legal on the Pacific Coast for some men of all other nationalities to abuse the Chinaman." Men who were not citizens of the United States cursed him and cut his pigtail for being an alien while as many more whose acquired citizenship was a disgrace to the nation assaulted the follower of Confucius because he could not be natural- ized. In some neighborhoods the stranger's life was not safe, for the killing of a Chinaman was but little more than a joke, while his maim- ing was unworthy the attention of those in whose bands were the powers of the law. No criminal could eseape punishment so easily aa he who was known to have tortured or even murdered an inoffensive immigrant from the Flowery Kindom. It eannot be charged that three outrages were committed by folks who were ranked as respectable for that class was quick to preceive the Chinaman’s usefulness as a ebeap laborer. There are economic, political and moral considerations which appeal strongly for an effective check upon ‘Chinese immigration. Bat this check should be applied by the republic, not by individuals, and there fs no necessity for the nation, while pursuing with determivation a fixed policy, to do anything which will expose it justly to the accusation of international bad faith We have not gone about a proper and desirable action in the right way. We could have cut off the excessive influx of Chinese without outrage upon individual Chinamen and without insulting China. It may be that our barbarous methods of accomplishing a necessary exclusion will cause us to be excluded in turn from China. If such retaliatory exclusion is determined upon we eangot complain. a ee Colorado has a governor who needs edu- cating. Perbaps this necessity has never before been apparent, but it is very evident in printed extracts from = communication said to have been sent by Gov. Waite to President Cleve- land. The subject discussed in the letter is Indian outbreaks and their causes. These hap- pen, says the governor, because Indians are permitted to leave their reservations on hunt- ing excursions, and the permission is given, he proceeds, because the Indian agent commutes ‘therations of the absentees for his own benefit, and when the brnters return purchases the spoils of the chase at ground-floor prices. In view of the fact that some thoughtless people may swallow the governor's ebarges whole it would bea good investment were the Indian office to detail an officer whose duty it should be to explain to Gov. Waite the system of checks employed in the Indian service for the prevention of dishonesty. Years ago Indian agents eotld and did steal rations and clothing supplies, and they had profitable business con- | nections With those whose interests they were hired to protect, bat theft is now practically impossible; it would be diseovered almost im- mediately. ‘he governor's remedy is the else confinement of the Indians to their | Feservations—a recommendation that ought | to catch many votes—but which would be » cruel cause of strife. The rations and elothing supplies issued are not sufficient to | support life and the result would be excusable rebellion, for the Indian invariably prefers to die fighting rather than expire by starvation. Such a conclusion would gratify many of those who are inbuman enough to repeat the sanguinary “there is no good Indian but the dead Indian.” Soldiers would be the prineipal | sufferers and when the last of the aborigines | had either been killed or haled away to prison the Indian-haters would go in and possess the land. Its the same old program. ——_ wee Another great find of gold-bearing quartz is Teported from the far west and another rush of | gold-hangry men may be looked for. Human nature is much the same in all ages and the world over and as people who haste to be rich | are generally inattentive to advice there is not | much use in trying to obstruct the current which is forever flowing toward attracti points. The world hears of him who finds millions but there is no one who cares to ehronicie the sufferings and sorrows of the thonainds who strugyle without avail to draw a prize im nature's lottery. A few fortunate ones acquire wealth and are not ruined by success bur the vast buik of that multitude which always in the race for auriferous trensure sac- Fitiees it all. The young man who desires to succeed im life will not go gold-hunting. so ‘There seems to be a disposition to attach im- Portance toa slight question of identity that arises with reference to the Infanta Eulalia who may come to this country and the queen who ‘Was invited. There are many who will fail to see why the queen should be deprived of the Tuxury of an understudy if she desires one. + Mayor Harrison of Chicago evidently feels thas it is kinder to singe an office-seeker's whis- hers than to fire him outright. —— Pew men not candidates for public office have fn reeent times snffered more abuse than has been showered on the head of the Kev. Dr. Parkburst, and yet it is quite probable that he eserves nothing but commendation. Had he ‘been content with discussing theories and teaching carefully selected Scriptural doctrines none day of the week, the other days being spent im perfunctory visitation among the members of his flock, his reputation might Bave been that of a saintiy pastor, but be- eause he believed in a continuing and alwayr- active religion he has been the subjeet of mr.ch Persecution and many gibes. But men of the Parkharst type are not to be suppressed, und if this world is going to be any better there will be more of these bold and outspoken preachers ef every-day truth, “Municipal reformation” fs the doctor's text, and in his practical efforts to bring about changes such as are essential to good government he should have the support ef every honest man and woman. Some of Bis utterances in Baltimore the other evening an hardly fail to strike deep wherever the ition, It must be easily apparent to any one that the cities are the determinative frctors of national life and Bistory, and on them should reformatory energy be concentrated. Firstand most essential is the elimination of politi @alt task. vetnot impossible. ‘It has been done im oe ds. In making tha: fact plain the doctor ssid: Mr. Joseph Chamberlain, who is so greatly fnterested in the success of Birmingham, says that for « period of sixty years the council of the city, which ciects the high executive Officials, has uniformly selected them | from the opposite partr to their own ‘That such a seemingly strange procedrre works well is evidenced by Birmingham and Boston have about the same poprilation; yet in 1890 the municipal expenses of the former city Were but $1,500,000. while “hose totals express ween business prin- considerations; a dif- | in Boston ther | ciples and political methods, But the reform which Dr. Parkhurst champions will not appear until the better element interests itself in mu- nicipal affairs. As the doctor himself putt: It is singular fact that goodness can't be 50 confidently trusted to do what's expected of it as depravity. It is not so reliable. Average decency is not so much in earnest as average profligacy. Elections in city and state are likely to turn on the weather. Respectability looks at the barometer before it steps out of doors. Decency is afraid of taking cold. Piety doesn't like to get its feet wet. Wickedness is ampbibious and thieves are active in any element or no element. He ad- ¥ocates public watchfalness over public ser- vants and states it as a cardinal principle that Roman is so faithful that he doesn't need watching to make him do his duty. Then Dr. Parkhurst told the Baltimoreans some things that decent citizens should ever bear in mind; that the evil will have tobe overcome by the good and that it ean be done only by men with convictions and courage; that the security and honor of the community lies not so much in its great statesmen, its powerful leaders, or even in its educational advantages, as it does in the numbers of its men and women with whom righteousness is a chronic passion, civic duty a part of Christianity, and political cor- ruption in any of its multitudinous shapes a sensitive irritant and a permanent challenge. If there would only arise in the cities of the United States one hundred such men as Dr. Parkhurst municipal conditions during the earlier portion of the twentieth eentury would be much nearer to the ideal. ————+ 2 —___.
