4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. CROSBY S. NOYES....,........... Editor. re wo HE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation nearly double the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- Detitor. PO a8 CT OE EI LE order to avoid delays, on ac- coun: personal fheenee, 1¢ letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to pl: THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Department, meccording to tenor or purpose. SS Once more has defeat—this time of the crushing sort—fallen upon the heads of those who, discredited in other localities and exiled from New Jersey, planned to estap- lish a great gambling institution at the na- tional capital. Powerless to operate in ter- ritory they had long presumed to own, the winter-racing combine conspired against the welfare of this community and, in defiance of law and public sentiment, proclaimed its wuinous intent and proceeded to carry out its program. To this The Star—never slow to care for the city’s best interests—made ftrenuous and reasonable objection. Dis- trict Attorney Birney soon saw that an outrage against the statutes and against Fespectability was contemplated and, at the earliest opportunity, he knocked down the more prominent conspirators with the law's strong arm. That action resulted in doing what the gamblers said they desired—brought the at- fair before the courts—and today culminat- ed in a decision by Judge Cole adverse to winter racing and its unsavory concomi- tants. The District of Columbia is to be congratulated upon having escaped from the snare set for it, upon the sturdy law Officer who could neither be cajoled nor bulldozed, upon the judge who did what all Judges do not always do—his whole duty. —_—~+++____ After doing all the good that was pos- sible, after taking advantage of every op- Portunity to alleviate suffering which was within its reach, the Evening Star Santa ‘Claus Club has closed its accounts and will labor no more until another Christmas ap- roaches with its attractiveness and its misery. In every respect the club was a success. Despite the financial stringency it had more money at its command than it Possessed during the preceding winter and the experience gained a year ago made more surely equitable the distribution of reltef. The total amount contributed ex- ceeded twenty-eight hundred dollars. Of this gratifying total the club members— mainly pupils of the public schools—do- nated nearly eighteen hundred dollars; peo- ple who used to be children not so long ago subscribed more than five hundred dollars; The Evening Star Newspaper Company gave five hundred dollars. This fund—es- gentially a Christmas fund—relieved much distress during the holiday season, espe- efally among the unfortunate little ones who are not in any way responsible for their poverty-stricken condition; it did more, for in many a home it tided things over until the central relief committee was ready for business. Clothing, food, shoes and fuel were distributed where they were most needed, thanks to the little ones whose dimes made the charity possible. But the blessing was not a one-sided af- fair; the givers have been made acquainted with the pleasures of beneficence—a lesson that may have immeasurable influence for good on thousands of lives. ——- -+ee2 ——___ While the Senate may not have to apolo- gize for its action on the Hornblower nomi- nation it owes the country something for the extraordinary delay in reaching a con- clusion. There was no sufficient reason ‘why so much time should have been wasted while the Supreme Court of the United States was crippled because it lacked one of being a complete body, capable of prop- erly dealing with several constitutional questions now awaiting final action. Pres- ident Cleveland should show the Senate how great is the need by sending in at once the mame of some one over whose qualification mo argument will be possible. ——_ + ee -___ The dispatch announcing that a force of Canadians is r@cruiting at Vancouver to aid In restoring ex-queen Lili indicates that the British are seeking a substitute for the U. S. mazines in the campaign against American interests and influence in Hono- lulu. The English expectation, announced by Davies, the guardian of Princess Kaiu- Jani, that Congress would be “subservient” to the will of the President has apparently been abandored, and the reasonable con- clusion appears to have been reached that if the American Hawaiians are to be driven from the islands or murdered there En- gland must do the job through Englishmen ‘without further American assistance. — tee That portion of the democratic party ‘which believes in tariff readjustment on the lines laid down in the Wilson bill has every reason for being proud of the effective manner in which Representative Bourke Gockran distinguished himself in yester- day's debate. Eloquent, ready of wit, and generally well-equipped for the wordy strife, he added materially to his oratorical repu- tation. ———__+ +2 —___ An enterprising community out in Wyom- ing offers Corbett and Mitchell seventy-five thousand dollars worth of wool if they will transfer their fight to Wyoming from Flor- ida. Seeing that the fistic encounter is being opposed by Florida's governor the ‘Would-be combatants can lose nothing by meccepting the offer. But what is that re- mark about those who went out for wool and came home shorn? > ___ Several miles to the westward of Hawali is 1 country whence came the homely Proverb: “Going to law is losing a cow for the sake of a cat.” That saying is respect- fully referred to the alleged-to-be litigious ‘Littuokalani. Her ex-majesty imagines. she wants damages; her real necessity is re- pairs. — 0 _____ After his encounter with an Indian club {m the hands of Mrs. Sullivan, the ex-pugi- list might be justified in reflecting that this 4s the second time he went into the ring once too often. ——+= After Senator Hill's experience in the championship of Maynard's unrighteous ¢laims to judicial piace it is rather remark- able to find him calling into question the Qualifications of a man like Hornblower. soe The war in Brazil is a gratifying reminder f the peaceable manner in which these things may be done if the attempt is rightly made. 2 ____ Of course it is highly desirable that the Pending revenue legislation should be speed- ily enacted, and the uncertainties clogging the wheels of industrial progress be remov- ed, but no wise national financier will over- look the fact that a new disturbing factor has been recently introduced into the prob- Jem which casts fresh doubts upon the Question of the amount of revenue which the republic will need to meet its obligations, and may make nec- essary a remodeling of tariff sched- ules, or the imposition of an income tax upon all incomes, without limitation as to their amount. Ex-Queen Lili announces that she will sue the United States for damages in an immense sum for evicting her from the premises known as the Ha- walian throne, and it is intimated that she has an equally strong ground of action for breach of promise in failing to restore her to those premises after promising so to do. Her principal witnesses are Grover Cleve- land of New York, Walter Q. Gresham of Hiincis and James H. Blount of Geor- gia. It is well known how these witnesses will test and it ts believed that their testimony will have Great weight with the present administra- THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JANUARY 16, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. tion of the United States. If the President should instruct the Attorney General to con- fess judgment in such a suit, (and how could the President resist a claim in respect to which he has so frequently pleaded guilty for the United States?) some millions prob- make provision to meet this claim. In the breach of promise suit brought by the widow Dominis Uncle Sam may perhaps profit by the elder Weller’s advice to Mr. Pickwick and prove an alibi. He was elsewhere at the time of the making of the alleged prom- ise, and it may turn out that this suit should be brought against Mr. Cleveland Personally, and not against the United States in the person of its President. But Gee oe ee bility of reducing in part the amount of Mrs. Dominis’ recovery, the important bearing which this suit has upon the size of the treasury deficiency and the character of revenue legislation is obvious, and nei- ther the Secretary of the Treasury nor the ways and means committee can afford to ignore the matter. —_++e—__—_- It has never been seriously charged that Bourke Cockran is a demagogue, nor does anyone who knows him weil believe him capable of so minimizing himself as to become qualified for member- ship in the society of small-bore and insin- cere politicians, but his comments yesterday on the Homestead trouble were at least disingenuous. He claimed that when the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers at Homestead sought to maintain wages they were met by bullets. “They were,” sald he, “met by bullets in the hands of the hired assassins of a protected industry.” He also stated that Governor Pattison sent the officers of the law—the militia—to Homestead “to supplant the vol- unteers of anarchy and assassination.” Perhaps Mr. Cockran was unduly excited by participation in a warm debate, in which he shone brilliantly and to the dis- comfiture of many adversaries, but he surely erred in those allegations. 1t was the wage-earners themselves who were the assailants, who appealed to the force of arms, who were inhuman of deed and un- lawful as to everything that was done until the troops restored order in Home- stead. Not until Governor Pattison was con- vinced that the strikers were wrong—first, last and all the time—did he order two bri- gades of the national guard to the scene of disturbance. Mr. Cockran had it tee the downtrodden men of Homestead—better paid than any other workmen in the coun- try—submitted tor military law because they were law-abiding. Mr. Cockran should have ae been in Homestead while it was ruled by those whose cause he so recklessly at- tempts to champion. The law was respected only because there was at least one sol- dier and one rifle to face every rioter. Po- litical economists, sociologists, manufac- turers, wage-workers, partisans, profes- sional labor agitators and philanthropists may argue over the Homestead troubles until Grover Cleveland ascends the Ha- wailan throne, but they cannot befog the fundamental fact—the truth of history— that the workingmen were the bloodthirsty aggressors on that awful 6th day of July, 1892, and for a week thereafter were as brutally tyrannical as civilized men could be. —__-+>____ If the Queen of the Sandwich Islands had succeeded in getting this country to countenance her rather relentless ideas of punishment the American Indian would have some ground for feeling that he has been discriminated against. ———_ > ____ Mr. Vaillant can scarcely deny that the Prompt manner in which the government | Sh! dealt with his particular case entitles it to 50ec.. respect even though it does not meet with his approval. —_++o___ ‘There would appear to have been enough preliminary “roasting” of individuals to subserve the most exacting cannibalistic traditions of Hawaii. —_++=—___ Secretary Carlisle is possibly becoming impressed with a feeling that Congress talks a great deal more than the money in the treasury does. ———++s_____ The leaders of the senatorial orchestra were hardly artistic in their manner of putting a whole rest in Mr. Hornblower’s music. ——___«+______ Liliuokalani if she had her way would be almost as deadly as the trolley. —_—_reo—____ SHOOTING STARS, By a Weary Statesman. Oh, Lili, in our hours of ease, Your antics did not so displease. - But now, pray cease your song and dance And give the Wilson Bill a chance. “It sut’ny am ‘zasperatin’,” said Uncle Eben, “ter see er man was'in’ nuff innergy gibbin’ an’ takin’ back talk in an argyment ter earn ‘im seberal squah meals sawin’ wcod.” Cal “How are you getting along with your music lessons?” asked the caller. “Very peaceably, now,” replied the reso- lute gtri. “What do you mean?” “The neighbors on both sides of us have moved.” Business Improvi A smile now lights the poet face, His lot is cast in better lines; Since orders some will come for verse Which youths will send in valentines.
