4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C., SATURDAY. JULY 15. 1893—SIXTEEN PAGES, i THE EVENING STAR WASHINGTON, BATURDAY..... --Suly 15,1893. CROSBY 8. NOYES. ‘THE EVENING STAR bas a regular and permanent circulation in Washington three times larger than that efany ether paper is he city. As = lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Medium it bas ne competitor. ——— Surprising to both the friends and enemics of true civil reform is the act of Secretary Hoke Smith in abolishing the board of promo- tions in the Interior Department. To the ene- mies of an honest public service the surprise must be most gratifying, but to those who be- lieve that government business should be trans- acted in accordance with business principles this official declaration of hostility is far from welcome. It will, however, bo met with all the force that honest principles can muster, and to such a conflict there can be but issued an order in which it was provided that Promotions of employes in the classified service of the Interior Department should be based on the record of efficiency kept in the several offices and on the standing achieved in volun- tary competitive written examinations to be held by the board of promotions, and it was also provided that the examinations should be Practical in character and should “relate Principally to the work s*signed by Inw and custom and performed in the branches of the department in which the competitors are em- ployed.” That was an equitable arrangement and it undoubtedly gave the best men the oppor- tunities and honors they deserve, but under the new order of things there will be no examinations and it is specifically stated that Promotions will hereafter be made upon the recommendation of the heads of bureaus, whose ‘actions will be based largely upon the indorse- ments of division chiefsand those in immediate authority over the clerks. Favoritism and in- fluence—two things fatal to good service—may President—who has always declared himself to Dean unwavering friend to the civil service law more be established in at least one of the gor- ernment departments. TO Oo From vague and probably irresponsible sources come rumors of British activity in the matter of fortifications and garrisons and naval some one is trying to build a tall structure of alarm—something to frighten 0 Power that could call into the field within forty-eight hours enough troops to practically take possession of all of Canada that is habitable for white men. What nonsense! ——__++-+___. Before mow falls in Chicago the people of the United States and of several other deeply interested countries will have an opportunity to gauge the power of anarchy in the lakeside city. A month sgoand there was no appear- suce of anti-peaceful influences, but since Gor. Altgeld gave liberty to three rabid “reds” the unkempt head has come into full public view, proud of the distinction conferred upoa it by the openly expressed friendship of the governor of Ilinois. But anarchy in Chicago is still an unmessured quantity and it will continue to be until after the election at which either Judge Gary or his successor will be chosen. Now, Judge Gary, as very many people know, is the jurist who presided atthe tral of the anarchists, and because he ‘was brave encugh to do his whole duty at that ™momentous period has been vituperatively as- sailed as an a-sassin and several other equally ndesirable thing. His term has almost ex- pired and he will go before the voters of Chi- ago tosecure commendation or condemna- tion. His opponent is to bea personal friend of Gov. Aligeid’s and a believer in many of the disturbing doctrines with which the governor fally sympathizes. The struggle will be watched cloaely, for the result is going to give us an accurate index to Chicago's character. The defeat of Judge Gary, should it be accomplished, will not damaze his judicial reputation nor will ft prove that tho condemned anarchists were amnocent martyrs, but it will reveal to mankind the precise number of people in Chicago whose preference is for lawlessness, —$$<-oo——___ Alarmists who looked for trouble in Paris yesterday becanse it was the anniversary of the fall of the Pastile must have been disappointed at tho perfect quiet maintained. The day— greater than any other in the modern Gallic calendar—was celebrated as it has been for many years, and at no time was there any evi- dence of discontent or danger of disturbance. Of course thers were many among the anarch- ists who would have, had it been possible, used the anniversary as an opportanity to foment serious trouble, but a movement of that sort on that day would have met with no entourage- ment from the great multitude that ordinarily delights in amusing itself in an alarming and Dloodthirsty way at the expense of the city’s reputation. ——__++._____ ‘The Marlboro’ Gazette, published at Upper Marlboro’, Md., by Mr. L 8. Wilson, has com- pleted its 57th year. It is pleasant to note the successful career of a paper like the Gazette, which by its thoughtful editorial Management and its handsome typography does so much eredit to Maryland journalism. —_+.____ The President is said to be worried over Public questions to an extent that is noticeable tohis neighbors st Buzzard’s Bay. He is in the painful position of a man with a super abundance of variegated advice. ———_+eo—____ ©n Monday next the base ball team which calls this city “home” will return to the source whence flows much of thecash it subsists upon. If it isas modest as thorougbly-licked people usually are it will get off the train somewhere in the suburbs and at about eventide steal with- | out ostentation to its roost. It might be per- tinent at this time toask why the Washington Base Ball Team was so denominated. Why, in the first place, Washington? The replies are | far from satisfactory. Perhaps the manage- ment was looking around fora good name aud concluded that Washington wasa trifle better | than any of the others in sight; or it may have been because the enthusiasts here presented evi- dences of verdancy not easily to be found else- Where in such paying quantities; or, probably, because the athietes who compose the noble A@gtegation are uot Washingtonians at all, but came from all over the country. They got their title on the same principle that the Danube is called the “blue Drnube,” because it isn’t blue. To the second part of the query—-why base bali team?—no answer can be made unless the facts that the men wear uniforms and have their names printed on score cards are admit- ted in evidence; of other testimony there is but little, Washington bas, to some extent, been disappointed in the team, for at the de- Tusive outset it seemed as though some honor might be achieved, but the dis- appointment has been tempered wonder- fully by the consoling thought that local traditions are still unshattered and that there is now every probability of our hired representa- tives finishing where Washington teams have finished for so many years—at the extreme tail- vanity is a most undesirable possession. Humility is a peculiarly appropriate trait in the Washington character, and we are pleased, ‘afters mournful fashion, to see that the ball players who are with us and yet are not of us have determined to keep us humble for another season, ———_+++____ ‘The esthetic influences of the Columbian Worid’s Exposition seem to be felt already in many and unexpected quarters, and in none Perhaps more than in the stimulation of great railway lines in the production and circulation of attractive literature pertinent to the great show. The public would doubtless much pre- fer lower fares to artistic and persuasive hand- books; but the latter are by no means to be de- spised, even by stay-at-homes, since it is often both entertaining and instructive to read about things one cannot see. Particularly is this true in regard to distant places, scenery, ete., as is shown by the perennial popularity of books of travels. Recognizing this fact, three of the great lines radiating from the vational capital—i. e. the Baltimore & Ohio, the Penn- sylvania, and the Chesapeake & Ohio—havo each recently issued & beautifully gotten up brochure, anent to exposition travel and sum- mer tonrs,in which the leading attractions of its Particular route are set forth, by letterpress and illustration, ina style so captivating as to tempt the most immovable home-lover to pack up his or her belongings and be off without more ado. Each has a charm of its own, of course, and ali of them combine beauty and usefulness in an unusual degree. In brief, it may be said thateach of them reflects credit alike upon the present state of the typographic art and upon the liberality and good taste of the railway managers of the period. +0 The trials of the rainmaker are, indeed, numerous, For a long time it has been asserted that a rainmaker is a myth. People may think they produce rain, and they may make other people think so; but, according to the doubters, it ig a case of imagination purely. Under con- ditions like these the rainmaker might comfort himself with the thought that genius very sel- dom secures prompt appreciation and go his way feeling sure that posterity would see his vindication. But now comes grief of an en- tirely opposite character. A Kansas rain- end. Victory might have bred vanity, and |}! maker boasted that a cloudburst, which came quite unpredicted, was the result of his pro- fessional endeavors, Thereupon a Kansas farmer srose with a claim for damages beciuse the cloudburst had destroyed his crops, and the wife of a man who was killed in s washout wants liberal damages. The dilemma is s pain- falone. The rainmaker must either repudiate his science and declare that his arsertions were empty boasts, or else he must assume the moral and financial responsibility for this devastating storm. It is an interesting problem, too, for the courts to handie, and the public will wait with interest for light which the jadicial mind may throw on the question of to what extent it is possible for a rainmaker to be responsible for rain, ——_—_+e2+—____ Information comes from the Monmouth Park Racing Association to the effect that Tracy Bronson and Arthur T. Bowers, representatives, respectively, of the New York Times and the New York Tribune, have been ruled off the association's track. That is about all that comes from the association, but from other and much more reputable sources come the reasons why,and these make plain that the two reporters named persistéd in writing the truth about the many unfair and improper things done by the association and its most promi- nent officers. Horseracing, when it has for its object the betterment of horsefiesh, is thoroughly enjoyable, but when it is merely the means by which blacklegs thrive and young men are tempted to embezzlement the trath is wholesome and should be published. And we shall doubtless have the truth about the Mon- mouth Park Association even though the writers of it have to stay outside the fence, ———+eo—____ A French journalist who occasionally pedes- trianizes for wagers started resterday afternoon from the New York Herald office for a tramp to Chicago.

Commercially the week which is about to close has been a decided im; over immediate predecessors, for money has been much more free,and in all the lines of busi- ness there has been an increase of activity. Bank failures have been less numerous, and the general tendency of the market has been up- ward. The city of Indianapolis has, however, been somewhat disappointed financially, be- cause New York brokers declined to give cash for $600,000 worth of lis city bonds— a declination which has affected the city some- what seriously, Most of the financial failures show assets considerably beyond the liabilities; evidence of the fact that only stringency in the money market brought about the assignments, ‘The number of casualties was very great, prin-~ cipal among the awful happenings being the fire which destroyed the great cold storage building at the world’s fair; nearly ascore of ives werolost, most of the killed being fire- men and Columbian Guards. Eastern rail- roads have awakened to a realization of the fact that they were losing money by holding up rates to the world’s fair, and the traffic association has agreed that single fare shall be suffleient for the round-trip journey, on Ste fied trains, Amo: prominent assem} of the woek ‘were ‘those of the Christian En- deavorers, held in Montreal, the international convention of the Baptist's Young People’s Union of America, held at Indianapolis, and the twenty-seventh Swngerfest of North ‘American’ Sengerbund, at Cleveland, Obio. ‘On the Pacifle coast there bas been some trouble due to the riotous tendencies of white men who were disappointed because the Geary law has proven to be ineffective and who, there- fore, took the law in their own hands and have assaulted a number of Chinamen, IN OTHER COUNTRIES Gladstone and his followers are moving as rapidly as possible toward the completion of the task they have set themselves—the passage through the house of commons of the Irish home rale bill. ‘The work is not being aecom- lished, however, without considerable trouble. juite a'scene took in the house when Thomas Sexton, an anti-Parnellite momber, felt aggrieved at some of the things that were said and done and was finally compelled to with- draw from the house. Money is still an ab- sorbing theme in English business circles and the bi-metallists in the English parliament have ued a manifesto protesting against the closing of India’s mints to the free coin- age of silver. In France the regular ministerial crisis has again come and gone; the riots which disturbed Paris so much a few days since have also departed, but there atill remains trouble with the King of Siam. Emperor William is probably satisfied, for all the indica- tions point to a speedy passage of the army bill, the emperor's majority in the reichstag boing sufficiently large to minke the enactment of his favorate measure a certainty. Ten thousand socialists in Vienna #1 in making an im- posing demonstration in behalf of universal suffrago and expect to accomplish that which they have set out to do within a little while.

Intermingled with thoughts as to the weather —more or less engrossing during the past week —has been consideration of the problem of District improvements in connection with the Proposition to ask Congress for authority to issue bonds. The change in the Metropolitan street railway directory led toa revival of the gossip in regard to a combination between the different railroads of the city. The Grand High Tent of the Rechabites was in session here dur- ing the week. and important business matters disposed of, meeting of the citi- ns’ committee in charge of the arrangements for tho centennial celebration of the laying of thecorner stone of the Capitol shows that is being made toward a successful ob- Servance of that important event. In sporting circles the expected happened, and Washing- ton’s ball team secured eleventh place without much difficulty.

In this case an overwhelming array of competent testimony was freely offered to Prove ability of the highest type, which has achieved ‘success bordering upon the miraculous, Indeed, all the evidence was unanimously in fayor—nothing against not a single note of discord to jar upon the harmony of universal praise. Leaders in the marts of trade; ‘highest officials in the banks; the heads of industrial instutions—all when questioned heartily conceded tribute in words so eulocistic that our representatives could not but believe that a master of his ‘and permanent relief was obtained. This has been repested until if has coased to excite wonder—until the community regards st an every-day affeir. The pages of this Paper would not contain an enumeration of the cases of the afflicted who have appealed to this “‘courtof last resort" —all otier hope dead—and now gladly pro- claim their restoration to health and happiness—to home and friends—who tn their gratitude and joy gladly spread the tidings that others who are falling faint and foot-sore to die tn despair may look up avd catch the glorious hope which shines down upon the Aisease-stricken as does the golden orb of day into the clmmerian darkness of chaos. But thero are those who are still ignorant of this great healing power, who know not how near at hand is wurcease from suffering, and ready cure for tbe most obstinate ailments, complicated diseases and chronic complaints which have withstood every known power and baffied all ordinary skill. To those ‘Unfamilisr with this New Hope we would come with words of good cheer, bringing promise of the blessings of health, obtainable, we know, from no other source save this.
