é THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTO THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FUESDAY............ October 17, 1893. CROSBY S. NOYES. -Editor. "EE EVENING STAR has a regular a: permanent circulation in Washing- tem more than three times larger than that of any other paper. As a News and Advertising Medium It has me competitor. i ee ©7 Letters to THE STAR should be so addressed, or to the Editorial or Basi- mess Department, according to their character or purpose, not to any ind!- Vidual connected with the office. It is diMcult to see how the position of the Chinese in this country—either material or argumentative—can be strengthened or smended by allegations which have it that the Chinaman is fully as desirable a res- Ment as many of the varieties of European bamigration now flocking to our shores and erowding the cities of the east and middle west. In the first place the statement is in- correct, for although most of the Hungar- fans and Poles and Italians and others of that sort are poor material out of which to manufacture good American citizens, still the task is not entirely hopeless. ny snpromising specimens have been devel- eped into manhood and womanhood of the Bighest types and others are undergoing the treatment through which our civilization ean be acquired. That there are too many Pupils In that school has long been evident and there is today crying peed for laws that will shut out the criminal, the pauper and the diseased of other lands, who, in spite of what seems to be rigid inspection, succeed In securing admission. The European sooner or later embraces citizenship and loses his mational identity within a few years, but the Chinaman {s absolutely non;assimilative. Discussing this phase of a complex question, Representative Hilborn, of California, said in @ speech Gelivered in the House a few days since that “a Chinaman who was born in ‘this country thirty years ago !s today just es thoroughly Chinese in habits, in thought and language, in everything, as though he fhad been born in Canton. He knows noth- ing of our laws or our form of government and cares nothing about them. He knows gothing of our language or our religion, and | he has a contempt for both.” There is more anger to the welfare of the repubilc in the presence of hundred thousand of the non- assimilative sort than can possibly result from the incoming of’a million men who are without means, but who are willing to invest ‘their muscle and their brain-force fn the country that has done so much for the un- @mployed of the world, but that now has @vermany unemployed of its own. Senti- talists who favor Chinese immigration in a while declare that the Chinaman demands and receives for his serv- ttle less than the sum for which y be had, but such affirma- eading. The Chinaman 1s enough to underbid only by the nar- margin, and although his white com- have again and again brought their down to his level, he continues the until competition is no longer pos- With ample statutory provisions to good behavior and a majority of the behind the laws and bent on their enforcement, reasonable number of eastern immigrants may be controled, but nefther Jegisiation nor moral suasion can convert a ‘Chinaman to Americanism. It is such unas- stmilated materialwhich causes blood-poison- ing in the body politic. If, however, it were entirely true that John Chinaman is better some of the European immigrants shores, the wise policy would be to Doth sets of objectionable visitors. hundreds of thousands of Euro- uaa A i who, being absorbed, will add to the Fepublie’s growth and strength. It is time for the republic to diet itself, to swallow only wholesome food, and to reject indiges- ble, unassimilative, blood-potsoning viands, ‘whether served up by Europe or Asia. a ‘The report made yesterday by Health result in an immediate prohibition of the practices complained of and the substitu- tion therefor of crematory destruction. Originating in the desire of lot owners ‘whose property was below grade and who preferred voluntary contributions of more ‘or less solid matter to the expensive pro- cedure of earth-filling the custom of dump- ing all sorts of filthy and disease-laden debris has grown until public health is menaced. The mortality in the vicinity of ground open to dumpage has been extreme- Jy but not astoundingiy great; the wonder is that the death-rate has not been much higher. When 281 people die in a district where the rate should not be more than 73 it is time for something more than deliber- ate Investigation. The remedy of debris- Gestruction by fire hes been suggested; let it be put in immediate operation. —_++s___ Several months have elapsed since there commenced to be agitation in favor of an improved fender in front of street cars and especially before grip-cars on the cable oad, and other cars propelled by some more rapid motor than horse-flesh. Acci- dents have not been few during the long Period of waiting, but the constant danger to human life does not seem to have spGrred the local roads to the improvements that the public safety demands. Several forms of fender have been suggested and one or two of them have been tested but none of the devices has been adopted and the in- effective fender, which has done so much damage, continues to be used. In every Fespect save this the Washington and Georgetown cable road ts admirably equip- ped, but its fenders are not fenders and they should be displaced at the earliest possible date by fenders that are fenders. And the same necessity exists in respect io all other rapid transit lines within tie Dis- a ees ‘The gilding of the dome of the National Library building is beautiful and effective. The success of this treatment of the library dome suggests that the black figure and its Pedestal on the nobie dome of the Capitol, lose at hand, should be also gilded. @ffect of a golden Sgure surmounting the grand white structure would be striking and in good taste. The late Professor iiii- gard and Mr. B. L. Blackford of this city Prepared a bill providing for this gilding ten or twelve years ago, and submitted an estimate, which indicated that the whol work could be accomplished for $,000. The world’s fair court of honor furnishes th latest evidence of the fine effect Gilded figure seen im combination w seeming white merble palaces. — After the national and Intern Aibition that the Senate has m the President has no ap World's fai ite ———— Anarchists who have found sanctuary in this country and who contemplate ab the nation’s over-liberal hospitality will ¢ well to study remarks made by Ju Martine when he yesterday sentenced E: ™ma Goldman to one year’s imprisonment Emma, it will be remembered, gave public utterance to language calculated to in to riot and for this offense was tricd @ plainiy-spoken warning Judge Feferred to the fs testified to complete disre: try's laws and then h i Martir t that the prisoner had for the I think it @reat strength of this n: , @rcised to the extent that you and those very i ‘The | * [3 only Cockrell,” thought 1, ne | the who entertain the same {deas should be met at the portal of our country to the end here. “We are proud of our institutions, and much money and much blood have been | Spent to build them up, and we do not pro- | Pose that any person, man or woman, shall | undertake to tear them down.

I look upon you as a dangerous woman tn your doctrines. Fortunately there are only a few, compared with our great mass of citizens, who believe in your doctrines. But it is necessary that those who believe as you do should be taught that the law ‘will be vindicated.” Judge Martine is undoubtedly right. No Jaw-abiding citizen will assail the position |he holds. There has been too much le- | niency toward those who denounce all gov- ‘ernment and preach the doctrine of assas- sination. There never was a better govern- |ment than this and the probabilities are | that there never will be. Anarchy has no excuse for existence within the boundaries jot the United States. ——_o-—___ It would be cruel to destroy the British yachtsmen’s sole remaining consolation, that whatever may happen on this side of the ocean, the British yachts would win in British waters. But it is becoming the | evident duty of Americans to demolish this | belief, even if it be necessary to send the Vigilant or next year’s fastest sloop across the ocean. It may be that in some mys- terious fashion American yachting suprema- ey Is subject to geographical limitations,but it is not to be forgotten that the America’s cup was originally the Victoria cup, and ‘Was won, notwithstanding British certain- | ty of the contrary result, in British waters against the fastest British yachts, the American representative distancing all competitors. John Bull would do well not to be cock-sure of American incapacity to sail in British waters, for a new America may, before very long, give him the same kind of surprise that bewildered him when the old America crossed the winning line first, with no other competitor in sight. ———_+ + _____ | Thousands suffer physical pain for a day | and are well again, soon forgetful of the the less fortunate, but as many more re- member the agony of the bodily distressed | @nd minister to their wants with more than buman willingness.

That noble charity, the Home for Incurables, has done inval able work in the way of alleviating thé misery of those unfortunates who have been declared to be beyond medical aid, but the funds of the institution have been exhausted and the ladies who have carried on this good work with such devotion are now endeavoring to raise the money im- peratively needed, as stated in another column. It is not doubted that the gener- ous public, when it knows the pressing needs of this worthy charity, will respond amply to the call. ——_~ e+ ___ Senator Palmer told the silver Senators that except as to the instruments used there was no difference between their course and armed resistance to the law. ‘There may yet be such a thing as a didn’t- know-it-was-loaded filibuster.

He Didn’t Want His Hair Cut. “Willie,” sald the mother of a Washing- ton youngster, “you must go and get your hair cut.” A look of intense anguish swept over his face, and he wailed, “Oh, mother! With the foot ball season just commencing,” so pa- thetically that she relented. He fears no foe; no power of man His wrath could make him smother— But, goodness gracious, how he fears His best girl’s little brother. ‘Thrifty. “Dear me,” said Mrs. McGuldy, “I guess I'll go into the boardin’ house business.” “Why?” “I hear that the town is full of political roomers, an’ I might jest as well hev a few in the house ez not.” Old Friends.
