THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. -THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, THURSDAY.........November 23, 1893. be al s. NOYES. . Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation in Washing- tom more t three times larger than that of any other paper. As a News and Advertising Medium it has . BO competitor. fice. but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Department, mecording to tenor or purpose. When a reputable citizen who chances to he out late at right meets a policeman and is requested to “halt” he promptly assents ‘and satisfies the officer of his harmlessness 4m the criminal sense, but should that same citizen be held up by an individual clad in mot over-stylish garments of the everyday sort his natural inclination would be either to fight or run. If the reputable citizen chanced to be a negro there would be an ‘@dditional Incentive to flight in the wide- spread fear among the race in Washing- ton of capture by the mythical “night doc- tors,” who are supposed to convert living | megroes into anatomical subjects for the . medical colleges. The same tendency to «fight or run wquld be present even if tite “4nterfering stranger were to announce him- ' #2f an officer, for that sort of a statement has frequently been used by highwaymen, Who, without it, could not have approached near enough to their victims. Willis Wash- ington seems to have been a reputable citi- zen and he may continue to be one if the bullet which Otticer Terry fired Into him does not put an end to his usefulness. The facts In what ought soon to develop into the “case of the United States versus C. B. Ter- Ty were told in yesterday’s Star and since that publication the only additional testi- mony uncovered is against the officer. Of ‘course every resident of Washington knows that during the past two or three weeks there has been a reign of terror conse- quent upon the daring misdeeds of an un- known individual whose popular designa- tion is “Jack the Slasher,” and that there has been extraordinary vigilance on the part of the police. Suspicious characters have been closely watched and the sur- Veillance has been extended so as to in- -yglude all persons on public highways be- | tween the hours of midnight and sunrise. ‘That the work of repression or detection be rendered less difficult the officers on @uty at night have eschewed uniforms and @ppeared in citizens’ clothing. These pre- cautions in behalf of the public safety were ‘and are appreciated as are also the willing Vigilance of nearly every member of the force, but when a policeman is thoughtiess enough to imagine that his official charac- ter reveals itself through his unofficial gar- ments and is plain to startled people in the darkness of night, he is clearly out of place and should seek some other occupation. ‘Then there are officers who feel called upon to take advantage of every opportunity afforded them to shoot and who do not hes- itate to make an opportunity, and of these Officer Terry seems to be one. His assault on Willis Washington seems to be without justification. There is no law to prevent the well-behaved citizen from promenading the streets at any hour of the day or night. Jn the interest of public policy he may be Fequired to disclose his identity, but be- cause he refuses to stop when two roughly- dressed men make the demand (as in the present case) the disguised officer has no right to kill him nor even to club him. The law gives every prisoner the benefit of such doubt as may exist, but policemen like Ter- Ty. convict, sentence and execute as rapidly as a self-acting revolver can be manipu- lated. It is hoped that Washington will not die, but his recovery should not prevent the prosecution of his assailant. Pistols @fe placed in the policeman’s equipment to be used only when the last stage of self- sGetense has arrived or when a dangerous e@iminal is escaping illegitimately. The courts should emphasize this fact on every * ——_++s____ Is President Cleveland so committed to the State Department's Hawaiian policy that he cannot cut loose from it, as sug- gested by some newspapers, like the Phila- detphia Public Ledger, which are very friendly to him? If he ts free to disavow the Blount-Gresham purposes, and to an- nounce that he has no intention of forcibly restoring Lilluokalant without the consent of the American people as represented in Congress he can make no happier or more successful stroke of policy than by prompt- Jy taking this step. Why in any event should the administration's views and pur- poses, of which England and the Hawaiian Foyalists seem to have had intimation, be carefully concealed from Americans? A President of the United States can hardly #9 too far in taking the people of the re- public imte his confidence. And he can hardly restrain himself too rigorously from exhibitions of distrust or contempt in re- spect to the people. The wisest policy of Mr. Cleveland in respect to Hawaii would be to follow a refusal to annex or estab- lsh a protectorate over the islands by a declaration of non-intervention, except in the event of foreign interference, leaving the missionaries and the royalists to settle Gomestic questions among themselves. By zo doing Mr. Cleveland will give himself the opportunity to deal with financial and some other urgent questions of our own @omestic concerns, in respect to which his attitude commands the confidence, respect and support of the people. ——-e+o____ Health Officer Hammett’s report indicates that the average duration of life in the District is increasing. This very desirabie State of thirgs fs not likely to exist long if Jack the Slasher continues to harrow the merves of the community. —————_- +e. If citizens of Washington are to halt at the demand of every person who Says he 48,an officer of the law, work will be tm- mensely facilitated for the highwayman Whose conscience permits him to descend -@ small subterfuge. —_— +o At is said by those who should know what they are talking about that the majority of the House committee on ways and means 4s much worried over the income tax propo- sition and that the weightier sentiment is against incorporating that Proposition in the Wilson tariff bill. There is reason for all the anxiety that exists on that score. Effort to legislate m harmony with the free trade plank of the 1892 piatform will cause the democratic party a great deal of trouble, and the income tax, which is absolutely mecessary to raise revenue In the event of the virtual abolition of customs duties, will Bs a notable feature of this embarrassment. Afgument adverse to the imposition of an gmcome tax is embarrassingly plentiful, and is the committee already realizes. Did Me plan involve the taxing of all incomes there would be an appearance of equity in the proposed enactment, but the decision to exempt Incomes of less than $1,000 or $5,000 @akes it an endeavor to legislate against the pocketbooks of one class and the true IMterests of the other. Every intelligent Man can comprehend the dansers of class Ieaisiation and few seem to understand why the democratic party—in full governmenta! control—should join hands with the most Fabid of the populist element and essay the Wational application of unsound social the- @ries. Why should the riches or poverty of @m American in any way change his rela- | tibnship to the government? Why should | the man whose annual income is $4,000 be | ied upon to contribute to the govern- fone $ support, while the man who receives os ted from that important ob- ne tax, whether equally | @, unequally applied, is a handicap on in- | q@ustry and thrift, an unfair relief to the | sluggard: it offers premiums to encourage Medioc and breeds countless liars; it is inquisitorial in the worst sense and would give to the public formation that the public is not entitled to. The collection of such an impost would be unduly expensive, difficult and unfair. In the majority of in- stances information as to incomes could only be obtained from the individuals them- selves, and as only a small proportion of the human race is fully conscientious as to its dealings with the government, there would be a vast quantity of deceit and countless evasions of the statute. Really honest citi- zens would pay the last cent of their Iiabil- ity, but thousands would not, so there could be nothing else than discrimination against the very class that deserves most consider- ation. The income tax is a tax on con- science and not on incomes, for in practice it is paid in harmony with the degree of sensitiveness of a man’s conscience and not In proportion to his income. One variety of fraud revealed by England’s experience might also be looked for here. Merchants whose credit was moving downward would return @ greater income than their actual receipts and then use the tax receipt to build up a fictitious @inancial reputation. Although the administration is thought to favor the income tax, some of its strongest organs do not. The New York Times, ex- tremely courteous to the President, says of this subject that “a right government is simply an arrangement at common cost to secure common benefits that cannot other- wise be got. Economically, it is pure sacri- fice to sustain it, for the taxes are only in- directly productive. They are practically insurance premiums against losses which only the government can prevent—against foreign war or domestic disturbance and the disorders which only the strong arm of the common government can hold in check. In this insurance the poor have as great and constant an interest as the rich, and even greater, because the latter could by their wealth, though in a costly manner, Protect themselves, and the poor could only get protection by dependence on the rich. In this view of the function and nature of government, if the really sound one, the Poor have the same share in both the ad- vantages and the burdens of the govern- ment, and any legislation which proceeds upon any other theory is extremely un- healthy and dangerous.” The idea of an income tax is popular among those whose incomes would be untaxed, but the party that panders to this sentiment will never be able to explain away its advocacy of wrong. _——_>seo————— A corresponden* has suggested that be- fore the United States cruiser Columbia be ordered to sea—which will not be for some months to come—that the Secretary of the Navy be requested to direct the ap- pearance of the queen of the seas at some point convenient to this city so that the residents within the region for which the ship was named may have a chance to see her. The idea will undoubtedly be popular. The District of Columbia is justly proud of its naval godchild and wouldgurely avail itself of an opportunity to inspect its ex- cellencies. It might be difficult to bring the big boat up the Potomoc to a sultable rendezvous, but Annapolis is not far away | and is easy of access. Should Secretary Herbert acquiesce in this proposition—and there is no reason for supposing he will not—it could be arranged to present to the cruiser at that time whatever gift the District may select.

But I was afraid he was going around the block to attack me from behind.” ——++2—_—__ The American Tradition. From the Brogkiya Eagle Dem). The traditions of the United States are against the annexation of foreign terri- tories with a mongrel population. They are also against the overthrow of gov- ernments or of administration anywhere, republican in fact or in form, and against the replacement or restoration of monarch- ical institutions even on the opera-bouffe seale of littleness and of looseness which marked those of the Sandwich Islands.
