THE EVENING STAR hase recuiar rermanent circulation in Washingten three es larger than that efany other paper in the elty. An @ local NEWS paper and Ad- ertising Medinm it has ne compet! It bas been intimated, and by some of the men whoescaped from Friday's disaster, that the coroner will experience difficulty in finding witnesses who will testify to official carelessness in the conduct of affairs prior to the killing. the inference being that the clerks fear the dis- pleasare of official superiors upon whom the testimony might reflect. That some of the emplores may keep their mouths closed for policy's sake is possible, but there are others, | and many of them, who will speak out boldly when they are called upon. And they will run no risk of losing their situations. The people of the United States propose to have the causes of the great calamity laid bare and will net per- mit fear of official bulldozing to cloud the tes- timony of those whose information will throw ligh: upon the horror. Clerks who hare any- thing to say may speak right out, and if their statements are accurate no official superior will dare molest or make afraid. ‘The law—operated by civilian and military forces—is now at work for the purpose of fix- ing responsibility as to the frightful happening, and the processes should not suffer hindrance Decause a few weak brethren waver between allegiance to the employing power and fidelity to themselves and to the memories of the deat or suffering who were fellow-laborers uatil Fri- day morning last. More than a score of bread- winners were then flung into eternity by some- body's carelessness or recklessness, while four times as many of the toilers suffer from serious injuries received at that time. The country wants to know who that someboty is, and it demands that every witness who can contribute toward his identification should speak out now. The uation insists upon the truth, the whole teuth and nothing but the truth. It will neither permit individual malice to seize the | opportunity of undeservedly fastening respon- sibility for the disaster upon some hated official, nor will {t permit him who is really guilty to evade responsibility by terrorizing witnesses and suppressing the truth. 3 | Down in Prince George's county are several weary and disgusted Marylanders who have ome to the conclusion that ingratitude is the meanest of all offenses and that William Pink- ney is the most viciously ungrateful of men. Mr. Pinkney, it will probably be remembered, willfully and with malice aforethought de- prived Francis M. Bowie of life, a murderous operation in which he was assisted by a friend named Barber. The two criminals were tried, found guilty and sentenced to death. Finding the ennui of prison life—brief though that | form of existence promised to be—ircompati- bie with his temperament, Mr. Pinkney sawed his shackles and escaped. That was some weeks ago. A reward of two hundred and fifty dollars was offered by the sheriY, and this sum a few pot-too-eager individuals made desultory and fatile efforts to earn. Annoyed at his low rating in the financial world, Mr. Pinkney de- clined to be caught, and in his endeavor to re- main absent bad the sympathy of most of his neighbors. Then the price moved up to seven buandred and fifty dollars, and enthusiasm kept pace with it. Armed parties stirred the fugi- tive to great activity and for several days and nights bis opportunities for repose were infre- quent. He was chased into the woods and then out of them without the slightest compunction, and at times the pursuers even encroached upon bis regular meal-hours, Finding that sort of a life to be far from pleasant, and fearful lest one of the hunters should fill his snatomy with many disturbing buckshot, Mr. Pinkney con- eluded to give himself up. He did, but not to the sheriff nor to any of those who have§ been disturbing his rest. He placed himself in the hands of two of his friends, arfd they will of course receive the reward for which others have toiled. The amatenr detectives are ina great state of mind over the outcome of their energy, and some of them talk of lynching Mr. Pinkney; not because there is any fear of his escaping the gailows, but because he euchred them out of seven hundred and fifty dollars. —_—_seo___ In all the volume of sympathetic sound that has gone up as to the disaster of Friday morn- ing there is but asingle discordant note—ut- tered by ex-Representative Poindexter Dunn of Arkanses. Mr. Dunn isa member of the com- mission which is now investigating the work- ings of the New York custom house and the ap- praiser’s stores, and when he was informed as to the awful catastrophe said: “It's too bad! I wouldn't have cared so much if they had been pensioners instead of the poor clerks.” It is ‘unfortunate that such cold-blooded comment— iubuman no matter how it may be rendered— should emanate from a representative southern man, a resident of Arkansas and an ex-confed- erate soldier. Asarule the soldiers of both sides are on good terms with each other and are at all times ready to eulogize each other's valor bat this seems tobe an exceptional case. Hold- ing such views is it not rather strange that Mr. Dunn should be willing to hold Federal office? But for the bravery of the veterans whom he desires to see exterminated Mr. Dunn might now be adorning adry goods box in front of the post office at Forest City, Arkansas, swap- nine snake stories with other loungers and won- dering when a client would come along. +2 “It bas often been stated,” says Prof. Henry Gannett ina paper presented before the Na- tional Geographic Society seme time ago, ‘that the strongest and most virile nations are the composite ones; those made up from » mixture of blood.” Commenting upon that statement the professor very logically concludes that if it be true, we are “in « fair way to distance in this regard all other nations which ever existed. ‘The blood of immigrants from all the nations of Europe, from the Mediterranean to the Arc- tie, to say nothing of the negroes, Chinese and Indians within our borders, threatens to make Usthe most thoroughly composite nation the world has ever known.” Proceeding to pro- duce testimony, Prof. Gannett uncovers some interesting figures which show that during the first half of the first century of national existence there was no immigration: that the numeri- eal gain within the borders of the United States was from natural increase. Immigration really had its beginning in 1847, when famine in Ire- land and political strife in Germany compelled | large numbers of veople to move westward in search of food end liberty. From 1821 to 1830 there came to this land 143,439 seekers after homes and from 1881 to 1840 the total was 599,125, but in the decade following the ag- gregate was 1,713,251. Since then the influx has been something tremendous—unparalleled in the world’s history, unappreciated by almost every American—and in the ten-year period which includes 18981 and 1390 the total was 5,246,613. Within » generation and a half 15,427,657 people have crossed the Atlantic and ‘established themselves within the bounds of this republic. In determining the principal constituents of this wonderful westward move- ‘ment, reference iv made to the representatives of nationalities which threaten our internal peace—Hungarians, Bohemians, Italians and Poles. “In recent years,” says the Professor, “the character of the immigration | has changed for the worse, not otly by this in- crease of these undesirable nationalities, but in the fact that the character of the immigration from other countries is lower than heretofore im respect to wealth, education and morality. Altogether the changes which the character of the immigration has taken on in the past ten or fifteen years have tended to lower the standard of American citizenship and press upon us the question whether it is not wise to take steps for limiting immigration.” An interesting phase of the problem is the distribution of the newly arrived during the past decade, and a glance at the carefully collated information shows that the foreign element is largely in tho north and | west. The Canadians are as close as possible to the boundary line which separates the land of | theiradoptionand their native country; they are | in northern New England, Michigan, Minne- | sota and North Dakota. ‘The Iri-b are mainly | in New Engiand and New York; the Germans stretched from New York westward, but the majority settled in Illinois, Michigan and Wis- |consin, The Scandinavians are at home in | Wiscousia, Minnesota and the Dekotas, ‘while the British are widely scattered throughout all the northern states. It is to be noted, too, that the foreign population flocks to the cities in | greater proportion than does the native ele- | ment. In 1890, Prof. Gannett declares, the twenty-eight largest cities of the country cun- tained a population of 9,700,000, or about | fifteen per cent of the popuiation of the coun- | trr. Three millions of foreign born, or one- | third of the total foreign born in the United | States, are dwellers m those cities. Forgetful perhaps as to many varieties of great public benefit consequent upon immigration Prof. Gannett lays notable stress upon the testimony that the illiterate and criminal of the northern states are mainly foreign born. That good can come out of evil is proven by the fig- ures which show that low grade immigra- | tion bas foreed the native American into the higher walks of life, and that despite the competition his supremacy is as evident as it was fifty yearsago. Asa tribute to his intelli- gence and his controlling force let it be re- membered that in Boston the native element constitutes out thirty per cent; in Brooklyn, twenty-eight; in Buffalo, twenty-two; in New York eighteen; in Chicago, twenty: in Detroi’, twenty-one; in Milwaukee, thirteen. In this city the percentage of natives is forty-seven, while the greatest is, strangely enough, not in one of the original states, but out in Kansas City, Mo., where the percentage is fifty-five. Prof. Gannett’s compilation, which has been published by the National Geographic Society, 38 worthy of more than mere auperiicial read- ing; it ekould be studied. ————— The public sense is waking up to its general ignorance on hygienic matters and is ready to welcome such publications as The Popular Health Magazine, the first number of which has just made its appearance. It is local as to its management but in every other respect prom- ises to be broadly national. Among its contriba- tors will be found some of the brightest minds in the medical world, evidenced in this issuc, where Surgeon General Wyman of the U. S. Marine hospital service discusses quarantine laws; Dr. William H. Welch of Johns Hopkins Universit; tulks of Asiatic cholera in its relations to sani tary reforms; Prof. Charles E. Munroe of Co- lumbian University says many important things about pure milk; Dr. Jobn S. Billings writes as to the health of our cities; Dr. Edward Morton Schaeffer of Baltimore treats of the poor man and cholera, while Albert White Vorse of the Philadelphia Ledger tells of recent sanitary re- forms in Philadelphia. There are other chap- ters, all interesting. all instructive, the whole being a literary instrument which cannot but accomplish great good. —_+o+__ As was to be expected in any community which has the true spirit of American enter- prise, the prompt sequel to the Fargo, North Dakots, fire isa discussion of the methods to be employed in rebuilding the city, and the tines of policy to be pursued. ————_ e+ —____ The presence of Princess Eulalie at the world’s fair drew large crowds.

A POLITICAL CAREER. Alas for the story of gloom ‘That chases a chill through the blood; He starts with a wonderful boom And concludes with a sickening thud. It was s sultry afternoon, and the only sound in the street was the ery of the old colored man who peddles bivalves from a push cart. His note evidently disturbed somebody, for a window opened, anda woman thrust her head out to say: “Dear me! What a great clamor.” ‘The colored man stopped his cart, took his dat off and said with a bow: “Thanky, lady, thanky.
