THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY... ....September 20, 1893. CROSBY 8. NOYES. } THE EVENING STAR has « regular and permasent circulation in Washington three times jarger than that ef any other paper in the city. As a local NEWS paper and Ad- vertising Medium it has ne competitor. ——— The clamor outside the Senate for a vote on the silver repeal bill and the criticisms that are made on the extreme deliberation of that body are undoubtedly as irritating to Senator Voorhees as the delay of the Senate at this critical time ts to the gen- eral public. As the leader of the majority Senator Voorhees is blamed for not bring- ing the debate to a close. He has taken the eccasion to vindicate himself and at the same time instruct the public in regard to the organtzation of the Senate. The public learned from his declaration yesterday that the majority of the Senate are practically powerless to prevent a minority from de- dating @ question as long as they choose or their physical’ powers will permit them. In abandoning the cloture rule years go the Senate did so, as Mr. Voorhees declares, with an assurance in their minds that no Senator would be found to abuse the pa- tlence of the body or to hinder or outrage the public business or the public interests by a resort to obstructive methods, after opportunity has been given for full and fair discussion. The traditions of the Senate, and the rules of procedure of that body, assume that each Senator is a patriot and statesman, and give him the largest liberty of action on account of this assumed high character. The course of the present de- bate makes it apparent that the Senate, if it is to do business, must adopt some com- mon-sense rules that will not assume that Senators are any better than other men. — ee Members of the House District committee are reported as having wisely determined not to grant the Metropolitan Railroad Compeny further time to experiment. What- ever bill is approved by that committee will, it is stated, require the company to change its motive power without any con- ditions. The railroad officials appear willing to consent to this. In fact, the company is hardly in position to propose terms to Con- gress, for any legislation at this time per- mitting it to change {ts motive power will be an indulgence to the company. The offi- cials are credited with having a full faith in the underground electric system, which has been in successful operation in Buda Pesth for several years and which was fully de- scribed last fall in The Star. In case Con- gress grants the privilege, they will, it is understood, equip their lines with this sys- tem. The present situation promises a happy solution of the Metropolitan railroad problem. The introduction into this city, and the successful operation on so extensive a scale, of the underground electric system, would make the city safe against schemes of trolley men. ———_+ +e —___ It has always been a theory of the law that the citizen should have the beneiit of every doubt, where the state seeks to en- force a claim against him. The tax sale laws of the District have never in the slightest degree violated that theory. In fact, they are practically inoperative by Feason of the many technical defenses that may be raised against their execution. If such 2 means for enforcing the collection of taxes as the sale of property for unpaid taxes is approved, then there seems to be Ro good reason why there should not be an explicit law on the subject, free from con- ditions and requirements, that make the annual tax sale an absurdity. The Com- missioners have recommended to Congress legislation on this matter, anid it is hoped sufficient attention may be given to it, to produce a wise law, giving full protection to the rights of citizens, and at the same time affording efficient means for enforcing the payment of taxes. —_+e+___. Canada, some years ago, undertook to Settle the Chinese question by tmposing what was believed to be a prohibitory tariff. Chinamen entering the country were re- quired to pay a tax of $0 each. Members of the diplomatic corps, tourists, scientists and merchants traveling on business were put on the free list. Now it fs claimed that the act is unconstitutional and also in viola- tion of the treaty agreements between Great Britain and China. Canada has enjoyed quite a revenue from the tax, but this Source of income may soon be cut off, as a test case fs to be made before the supreme court, and the general belief is that the Chinaman bringing the case will win it. ‘The result of a decision against the domin- fon government will be to throw the ports open to the Chinese and to require the treasury to refund e large sum. Then Can- ada will have the Chinese question to deal with again. ee All over the world today the Jewish peo- ple are engaged in the ceremonies peciliar to the fast of Yom Kippur, or the day of atonement. This is the most solemn of the holy days in the Jewish calendar and is observed by both orthodox and reform con- gregations with great regard to the re- quirements of ancient tradition. The day ef atonement was an ancient institution when the Christian era began. The moral teachings of the Jewish Church are of the best and this country, as well as others, has counted men of Jewish extraction among its most useful citizens. Here where the Jew {s free from persecution and in- sult, he is developing his highest qualities. — a A good many men who “ got there” in the Cherokee strip and put up their claim flags on choice pieces of ground owe their success to the bicycle. The bicycle was pitted against the pony and appears to have siven a good account of itself. A few years ago the bicycle was regarded as a play- thing, like the roller skate, but now it has fairly earned its way to a place among the useful servants of man. The future his- torical painter witl represent the pioneers of 188 crossing the prairies, not in great lumbering wagons, but on bicycles. zee Mr. Cleveland’s liking for young men is again shown in his appointment of Wm. B. Hornblower, aged forty-two, to the supreme bench. The appointment is also consistent with the attitude which the President is eredited with sustaining toward the New York democracy. - 202 It looks as though the President will have to appoint a commission to negotiate a treaty with Mr. Claus Spreckels. see The man who robbed the mint at Phila- delphia was careful to take only gold bars. ———_ ++ There has been a very evident return of confidence in the world’s fair. zs -<- The questions which Rev. Mr. Parish, the | President of the Exstein Norton University of Kentucky, discussed at the colored Bap- tist convention in this city yesterday do | mot concern the negro alone. It is import- ant to the country at large that the mil- ves should be properly instruct- | d in useful employments. | arish declared that there were few good mechanics among those of negro | blood. He said negroes were farm hands in the country and in the city menials.

The avenues to many use- | ful employments have been cut off for the} megro on account of race prejudice. ‘There | has been little for him to choose from, ex- cept mental service, or a professional career. Efforts now being made by means of industrial schools to teach trades and to impress the rising generation of colored people with a fuil sense of the dignity of labor, may have a great and beneficial in- fluence on the destinies of the race. Much of the future of the negro depends upon the settlement of the question of his in- dustrial status. Many distinctions now made on account of race would be likely to disappear if the negroes, as a race, acquired wealth. One of the surest roads to wealth is through manual industry and thrift. A people whose aggregate wealth is important cannot be treated with indifference in the business of the world. ——————— Senator Irby has gone home to South Carolina, and {f the reports telegraphed from the state are reliable he is testing the operation of the new liquor laws there in @ practical way. ——_ +++. ‘There is a rumor that a 10-inch steam- whistle will replace the bell that has here- tofcre awaked the students and called them to chapel at Yale. This may be a very con- venient innovation, but it is painfully pro- saic. —__ + ++ ___ ‘The doctors to Chinese royalty were re- cently fined a year’s salary each for in- competence. It is lucky for this country’s financial physicians that they do not live in China. —___++2-____ What the Senate does with reference to the financial question may take up only a Paragraph in history.

SHOOTING STARS. Good Nature. He was walking on his uppers, was the Philosophie man, Rut he never let a sign of grief appear; For he simply said, according to his philo- sophie plan, “Why, I haven't felt so foot-loose in a year: They Were Rather Small. The young men were showing, with a good deal of pride, the results of their fish- ing expedition. ‘Mr. Brooxten,” said a young woman, “fish go in schools, do they not?” T believe so;‘but why do you ask?* “Because if they do, I am willing to wager a box of gloves that you have broken up an infant class.” Advice. “Procrastination is the thief of time;”* So runs the proverb that we keep in stock. Oh, worthy legislators, heed this rhyme And get @ man to guard the Senate clock. A good many people go through years of thelr lives thinking that perfection is rarely attained in this world, when by seeking the society of the gentler sex they could find out that lots of women are perfect frights. A Capitol-guyed—Serator Peffer. Disappointed. “Did you have a good time on your west- ern trip?’ said one girl. “Lovely,” replied the other. “I’m sure you saw everything there was “Yes; I suppose so.” “You say that as if you might have miss- ed somethin; “Well, you see, to tell the truth, our train didn’t get robbed once.” A Mixture. “What month is this?” asked the absent- minded man. “Well,” replied his friend, “If you go by the calendar, it's September, but if you go by the thermometer, it’s August.” Far Better. ‘There are cases where theory is far better than practice. For instance, it would be a Sreat improvement on a too-prevalent cus- tom among workers in electricity if they would sit down with a shingle and a piece of chalk to figure out that “One live man plus one live wire equals one live man,” And let it go at that. ——___+ ++____ A Queer Position. ‘From the Chicago Tribune. ‘The populists who want to send all the surplus produce of the west down the Mis- sissippi and through the Gulf of Mexico to Copenhagen, Denmark, have a most ridicu- lous reason for the step. They propose to punish the people of the eastern states be- cause the latter insist on the westerners be- ing paid in gold for their produce, which is just the kind of money they would get for the property if sent to Denmark, which | is a gold bug kingdom. If they want to be paid in silver they should arrange to ship the produce to Mextco, or to some other land in which silver is the monometallic money. Instead of that they propose to open up direct trade with countries that have the gold standard, and do not believe in silver except for subsidiary colnage. Where is the consistency in that position? 0 = Ohio Politics Worse Than War. From the Chicago Times. They are fighting like devils at Rio And are shooting and looting, oh, my, ob! But while this row is sad It will be twice as bad When McKinley gets back to Ohio, From the Detroit Free Press. ‘The only thing which is lable to interfere with the general gratification felt because of the recent domestic event at the White House is the newspaper gush which seem: determined to follow. The “Baby Ruth sentimentality was worked until it became disgusting to almost every one, and it is to be hoped that history is not Itable to repeat itself in the case of Baby Esther. —_~eo—___ A Slump in Ermine. From the Chicago Times. ‘The lot of the Missouri county judge ts no More a happy one than that of the operatic Policeman. What with three of these bucolic Dogberrys in jail and a dozen or so more obliged to take to the bush to avoid the offi- cers of federal courts whose orders they have disregarded there would seem to be a big discount on the dignity of the Missouri ermine at any rate. ———_++__ The Whisker Question Up to Date. From the Minneapolis Times. Do, do, my huckleberry do, In the Senate what would you do? if you had Peffer’s beard, With hay and radish smeared? If you had that lacey frou frou That the Kansas blizzard blew through, Wouldn't you get shaved? —--2--—__ A Truth, Undoubtedly. From the Chicago Mail, Senator Voorhees says the debate in the Senate is getting tiresome. Once in a while Senator Voorhees is delivered of a great truth.
