J. Taylor of Kansas for the local recordership of deeds, it will be fully aware of the determined opposfion which confronts that nomination in the District of Columbia. Regardless of his party’s pledges, Mr. Cleveland has been per- sistently unjust «vhenever it was in his power to make an appointment to the office mow under discussion, and the residents of the National Capital have no other resource than the Senate, affirmative action by which body is necessary to give the nom- inee possession of the office. It is but rea- gonable to believe that the Senate com- mittee will report adversely on the nomina- tion and that the committee action will be sustained in the Senate itself. Twice during the first term of President Cleve- land did the Senate vote adversely on the Proposition to compel the District of Colum- bia to pay wich the fees of this local office Political debts incurred by the administra- tion, and there is ro reason for believing | that the Senate is any less conscientious or independen* now than it was in 1886 and 1887. Then President Cleveland nom- inated and renominated James C. Mat- thews of New York. The first effort was defeated by a vote of 38 nays to 14 yeas; the second attempt—after the President had | made the renomination the subject of aj special message and considerable personal pressure—also met with defeat, the nays being 31 and the yeas 17. Believing that | the President's special message called for | @ reply, the Senate then by a vote of 26 to 18 criticised the renomination of Matthews i been made had the President been bold enough to break the bonds of sex prejudice and put in the place for which Charles H. J. Taylor of Kansas yearns the administra- tion’s dark-visaged lady friend who is now so much out of place in the budding republic of the Pacific. But the opporiunity has gone by, perhaps for ever. Hypercritical people may be inclined to assail the giving of official position to the ex-queen of Hawail, but no objection that could be raised would amount to anything in this matter of the recorder of deeds. The two fundamental requirements upon which the President insists are that the nominee shall be non- resident and colored; and these demands are met in all thetr fullness by the widow Dominis—against whom the President would surely not discriminate because of her sex; his gallantry was too clearly apparent in the Shea case. It is true that there is more of distance between Washington and Hono- lulu than between Washington and Kansas, but the mere matter of a few miles more or less does not affect the equities. In the interest of distressed womankind, and as the logical outcome of his chivalric inten- tions, why does not President Cleveland withdraw the name of Charles H. J. Taylor of Kansas and send to the Senate the fol- lowing nomination: “Lydia Dominis of Hon- olulu, Oahu, to be recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia”? rer o—___. Senator Voorhees’ argument in behalf of the Wilson tariff bill would have been more nearly pertinent, stronger and more credit- able had he confined himself to discussion jof the measure. Had he done so his pro- cedure would have accorded with a reason- able custom and he would not have been, as he now is, fit subject for severe condem- mation. The Senator from Indiana is af- flicted with eloquence, and only once in a while can the eloquent man so control him- self as to be bound closely by facts and.in- disputable figures. The speech delivered by Senator Voorhees on Monday afternoon was almost anarchistic and will rise, perhaps in the near future, to trouble its author more than all other of his many utterances. It Was not an impromptu address into which error might creep or undue warmth be gen- erated; it was a carefully prepared and de- liberately delivered oration. What excuse can the Senator offer for depicting Ameri- can men of means as a favored class? What was his object when be, without warrant of truth, declared that the man of wealth is practically tax-free while the laboring mass- es are burdened with imposts?

The just principies of self- government, as well as the declarations of both political parties, justify their desire, that the duties of the office of recorder of @eeds should be performed by. some resi- dent of the District acceptable to those ‘Whose property is to be affected by his acts, and who pay the entire expense of its administration.” Several democrats who voted against Matthews because he was a/ non-resident are still members of the body | whose approval is necessary to make the appointment complete.

The board also took action last evening, | affirming its adhesion to the wise policy of Permitting the creation of no more steam railroad grade crossings in the city. It Wavered somewhat, however, in its alle- giance to another policy which has long been maintained by citizens and the board | of trade itself, with vast resulting material | benefits to the capital, in the development of | the city as a healthful and attractive place of | residence. This policy isone which protects the parks,reservattons and other public prop- erty from private encroachmeat of any kind whatsoever, and preserves them ex- clustvely for the use and enjoyment of the | people. The proposed occupation of a river | frontage on the reclaimed flats, and a strip | of land therefrom, by an overhead-troliey line to Mt. Vernon, is again to come before the board, when the report of the commit- | tee on parks, which was recommitted, has been returned in modified shape, and it is believed that the sober second thought ct | the board will not then permit the public | welfare and the material interests of the capital, as embodied in the principle cited, to be sacrificed to the pecuniary interests of @ few capitalists in New York and Phila- ————seo— For several days the people of this city have been spared the horror of a street railway murder, but this desirable state of affairs is due merely to the fact that no one has collided with the cars rather than to any improvement in the so-called “fenders” | with which the cars are supposed to be equipped. Few movements toward reform have been more deliberate than that which looks to the adoption in this city of a fender that can be depended upon to do anything | else than crush and mutilate those who are unfortunate enough to come in contact with its “saving” influences. In some other | eities the street-railroad companies have! experimented with and adopted for regular use fenders that are generally satisfactory; lacking perhaps one or two desirable fea-| tures, but in the main capable of saving life, and superior to the point of infinity to any- thing In use within the District of Colum- bia. How many more lives must be sacri- ficed before a reliable fender is deemed to| be necessary to the proper equipment of cable and electric cars? ———_+++___ Judge Peckham's remark about a cor-| Poration that pays $50,000 a rv for Tam- Many protection has precipitated one of the most exciting guessing contests that New York has seen in many a day. a Some of the protests against Taylorism may be a little tardy, but they are vigorous when they come. nia “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned” is a truism the length and depth and breadth of which will not be recognized by President Cleveland until he hears from Mrs. Dominis by the mail immediately following that which conveys to Hawail news of the nomination of Charles H. J. Taylor of Kan- sas to be recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia. On the far-away Pacific isle of Oahu dwells a dusky and adipose spect- | men of the feminine Kanaka, who is with-: out employment, whose salary has ceased to run, and who ts awaiting patiently the arrival of cheering information from her “great and good friend” at the White House; the friend who assured her and the balance | of the human race that the United States had, by the interference of diplomatic and naval agents, overturned her throne and de- prived her of her rather desirable and decid- edly lucrative job as a copper-hued monarch. | Having swallowed this declaration in its entirety, the opera-bouffe imitation of a cis- engaged queen now watches for the arrival of every steamer from the east, hoping one will bring comforting assurances as to the official, social and financial future of the imitation referred to. The expectant atti- tude of Lili has been before the mental vision of the President for some time past and he has doubtless wished fervently and requently that some provision could be made from the public purse for the support of the colored lady who lost her position when the sensitive people of Hawaii wearied of her immodest antics and her potitical recklessness. And such provision could have | Webster Voorhees its next presidential can- |wust look very young or he'd never have himself sumptuously provisioned against all wants, and amply protected against all con- tact or concern with the labor-stained mil- lions who struggle from one ocean to the other for means of existence’? Would Mr. Voorhees make it a crime to be prosperous? Is he intent on the cultivation of medi- ocrity? Does he propose to lead the hordes of the enviously worthless who, under the blood-red flag, would achieve the “liberty, equality, fraternity” of the commune? It would seem as though he were preparing to do something of the sort, for with every ap- pearance of sincerity, he declared “that the time has come for a t to be made be- tween the power of hoarded money and the power of productive labor; that the people from this time forward, more than ever be- fore, will organize and take rapid and heroic measures against the continued and brutal dictation of the plutocracy, against the paramount influence of wealth, against the rule and supremacy of the rich in shaping the financial policy of this government in their own interests. * * * And when the contest comes, as it will speedily, and in many ways and forms, the bankers, money- changers, usurers, and possessors of mil- lions who have provoked it will stand aghast at the consequences of their own folly; they will figuratively, if not literally, ery out for the rocks and hills to hide them from the wrath of an outraged people.” If the populist party does not make Daniel didate, it will be ungrateful. ——_~+ eo ___—.

Discrimination. “It 1s wrong to discriminate against a fan on account of his color,” said the patriotic citizen. “And I am proud to say it is something that doesn’t happen in this country.” “I don’t know about that,” replied the resident of the District. “You just watch me white man when he applies for the position of recorder of deeds.” Optimistic. “Billy Bliven asked Miss Parseigh how old she was!” said one girl to another. “Did she get angry?” No; she was flattered. She thought she dared.” The Selection of Words. “Are Miss Chattinby and Miss Gadding- ton still members of the Woman’s Society for the Reformation of the Universe?” “No. They are not still members. They are nolsy members.” A Taylorian Soliloquy. “I care not for the angry speech Which my ambition breeds.

The lack of such an institution is a disgrace to the city. Towns far inferior to it in every other respect are in this particulur away in advance cf the | nationa! capital. As a means of culture y to our excellent public and pri- | vate schools and other sourc2s of knowl- edze, a free library is almost Indispensable. There is certainly no surer or cheaper means for the excension of popular educa- tion than a collection of books to which ac- cess may be had by the general public In accordance with the most liberal regula- tions. There is, therefore, much cause for congratulation in the fact that the board cf | trade has taken the matter in hand, and it is to be hoped that it will not cease its ef- forts until the establishment of the much- lked-about and long-delayed free circulat- ry is assured. | $3. 54 inches wide, You probably know every one is new, all having the uew rultied backs.
