4 THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTO } Jey Dn. WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 30. 1893. _— THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. -August 30, 1893. THE EVENING STAR bas a regelar and permanent circulation in Washington three timeslarger than that efany ether paper in tke city. As a lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertiaing Mediumit bas ne competitor. So much solicitude is naturally felt in the condition of the President's health in view of the sensational reports affoat that it will be a matter of profound satisfaction to hear that Dr. Hasbrouck, who assisted in the operation upon the President's jaw, says that the operation was nothing different from cases met every day in dental practice, and that “on any less a person than the President it would not have been noticed.” He declares that the disease causing the operation was not at all in the nature of that for which the operation was made on Gen. Grant; nor were there any signs indi- eating sarcoma or “disease of a cancerous mature.” = —_—__ ++ ___ ‘Tt might reasonably have been supposed that with the growth of the nation and the consequent expansion and beautifying of ‘the nation’s capital, that the Houre of Rep- resentatives would become more instead of Jess attentive to legislation affecting the District of Columbia, but if the conclusions | of the House Committee on Rules can be regarded as fairly indicative of Congres- sional sentiment, the District is iikely to receive much less consideration than it has in the past. The rule by which in Con- gresses past two days in each month were set apart for the purpose of loca! iexisla- tion, provided that “the second and fourth Mondays in each month shall, when c'aimed | by the Committee on the District of Colum- bia, be set apart for the consideration of such business as may be presented by such committee." The rule which the Committee | now proposes to substitute therefor reads: “The second and fourth Mondays in each month shall be set apart for the considera- tion of such business as shall have been pre- viously reported from the Comimitte2 on the District of Columbia, unless otherwise de- termined by the House.” Heretofore the House could only refuse to consider business reported by the District Committe> by vot- ing adversely on the question of considera- tion, raised against each separate bill brought forward by the committes. Now the House may, by a single vote, defeat the Committee every time it attempts to se- eure a day in court. The proposed chanze 1s entirely in the interest of other legisla~ tion than that which immediately conceras the national capital; it 1s extremely unfair, and the District of Columbia protests against {ts adoption. Dependent, by Con- gressional action, upon Congress slone for such business as is elsewhere transacted by boards of aldermen and common councils, and utterly without direct representation in the body which makes our laws,we are now to be deprived of the one privilege that sives us any standing in the so-called “popular branch.” The proceeding proposed 1s arbitrary and improper; unworthy the support of those who believe in the princi- pies of equity. ———+ +e +___ In pleasing contrast with the depressing news that has been issuing with unwelcome volume from our great business centers dur- ing the past two or three months is the in- sands of now idle people. After running short-handed for some time, the Carnegie Company's steel milis at Pittsburg are now running double turn in several departments, which means employment for about six hun- mills no work has been done since June— will probably start up within a day of two. Several of the big Pittsburg glass houses, too long, will recommence operations Monday. In St. Louis the Niedringhaus Plate works, on the pay roll of which the names of more than fifteen hundred bread winners, resumed activity on Monday, and other establishments of lesser individual importance, but giving employment to a great many in the aggregate, are preparing to follow the example. Throughout the middle west collections are being made with greater ease than at any time since the commencement of the now-past period of unreasonable distrust, and there is, every- where prevalence of a better and con- fident feeling. Some of this is due to the action of the House on the Wilson bill; a speedily reached vote in the Senate will mean the release of millions of dollars now 80 foolishly being hoarded and result in a greater growth of financial confidence. At one time more than a little of this indus- trial paralysis was reasonably ascribed to the fears of those manufacturers who imagined that the democratic majority would be gov- erned by the tariff declarations made in the Chicago convention a little more than a year ago, but that cause of disturbance no longer ¢: for the actions and utter- ances of democratic leaders who lead have satisfied almost everybody that the style of tariff reform which seems to be now in con- templation will not be of the radical char- acter to do material damage to existing con- ditions. —_ +++ ___ Among those Senators to whon the sii- ver men of the west look for aggressive support, few, if any, are more prominent than Senator Vest qf Missouri. Noae are Tore tenacious than hi Rone could pos- sibly be more respectful in their attitude toward their own opition And yet it is within the bounds of »ossibility that Senator Vest may be persuxied into voting for the unconditional rep»: 2 the silver purchase act of 188. This result, if it comes, will not be due to argument upon the floor of the Senate, nor to any real change in the Senator's views; it will come in response to the pressure of level-headed constituents, whose business interests are imperiled by the adverse conditions which ness men want. Their reasoning is good and their lcnguage perfectiy plain. They are correct in saying that the people gen- erally believe the purchasing clause of the act of 1°9 *« largely responsible for the present trouble, and they are equally cor- rect in stating that its absolute repeal is a prime necessity in the work of restoring public confidence No disinterested and well- informed individual but will admit that to spend weeks in arguing over an improved financial system must result disastrously to many interests, so the Kansas City peo- ple are safe beyond question when they say that “it cannot be wise or generally desired among yovr people that a recognition cf silver should be coupled with the repeal.” The authors of the communication express no opirion either as to monometallism or bimetallism, and urge as a reason for thelr silence on those doctrinal questions that such opinions would be trrelevant “because the advocates of neither are in favor of continuing the Sherman purchasing act.” Concluding their remarkably clear State- ment, these men of Kansas City say: “In the firm belief, or rather absolute certainty, of the correctness of the views above set forth, growing out of our daily experience, we respectfully and earnestly request that you concur in the movement for the im- mediate and unconditional repeal of the purchasing clause and use your influence to that en With this emphatic request continuously dinned in his ears, it is improbable that Senator Vest will be found with those who have announced their intention of filibuster- ing against the senatorial majority and the welfare of the United States. Up to the be- ginning of the present session of Congress it seemed to be generally understood that the south would be almost solidly with the western advocates of free silver, but the wote in the House shows most clearly that | the alliance was an imaginary affair and not to be depended upon. When the vote was taken in the House on Monday fifty- six southern Representatives were on the | side of sound money, and now Senator Gor- don of Georgia has joined those who want honest finance, and unless Senator Vest wholiy disregards the very plainly express- ed wishes of some of his most powerful con- stituents another vote will be transferred to the right side. The idea that the west ts wholly in favor of free silver was entirely knocked out of joint on Monday, for of i27 votes cast from that section eighty-eight were in favor of repeal—a showing unex- pected even by some of those who had watched the growth of popular intelligence quite closely. Both of the great political parties are In favor of sound money; both so voted on the Wilson bill, and there will be @ repetition of honest affirmation if the filibusters in the Senate can only be shut up. —__++2—___—__ When the weather bureau fails to pre- dict with precision some of the common meteorological changes it is customary among discontented and facetious individ- uals to call attention to the failure, but when the bureau prophecies the coming of @ great hurricane nobody seems to think it worth while to give utterance to a few commendatory remarks. The storm which did so much damage on Monday night did not come unannounced. Not only was warning telegraphed to every observer along the route which the storm would probably and did take, but through the ob- servers the postmasters of hundreds of towns and villages were put in possession of a positive statement, which if acted up- on must have saved vast sums of money and many human lives. Like all other hu- man institutions the weather bureau has its weaknesses, but singularly enough they are minor affairs. So long as we receive reliable advance information as to destruc- tive cyclonic influences rational beings will surely refrain from grumbling because the weather prophet failed to see the com- ing of a local shower. ——_ ++ ___ New Jersey has given permission to an electric company to erect poles and wires in Paterson. The hitherto famous brands of Jersey lightning are destined to be utterly eclipsed in deadliness. a It is well for their laurels that the board of lady managers adjourned before the storm came around and showed what it could do. tee Assistant Secretary of State Josiah Quincy displays no hesitation in confiding to report- ers that he will undoubtedly resign if he happens to feel so disposed. —— Mr. Crisp evidently feels that there is no reason why he should be denied a share of the abundant congressional luxury known as “back-talk. ——__ + ee —__ Erratic western statesmen who have not received the indorsement of Mr. Hill will please step into line. +o Perhaps the best thing Siam can do for herself is to get off the map. ee SHOOTING STARS.
