Ni = @HE EVENING STAR h permanent circulation nearly dow the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- petitor. OYES.. -Edito: ty In order to avoid del: ys, om ac- —ount of personal absence, letters to THE STAR sho: Residents of other cities hitherto without Mterest in the Coxey movement are now beginning to sympathize with Washington and are wondering whether the city is capable of caring for itself and for the material portion of the great governmental Interests which center here. As to that there need be no alarm; the defenses are ample. A good police force—not large enough, thanks to Congressional cheese- Paring—can be depended upon to look after the city proper and to keep the peace un- der ordinary circumstances, while a brigade of National Guardsmen, trained for just Such emergencies as seem possible about the latter part of this month, will be fully equal to the task of controlling the move- ments of 10.000 Coxeyites. Should there be necessity for greater defensive strength, there may be called into instant service the four troops of United States cavalry stationed at Fort Myer, the Fourth artillery Stationed at the Washington Barracks, and @ considerable number of marines—so that altogether there would be not less than 2.400 well-equipped and trustworthy men Whose attention could be devoted entirely to the invaders. Should Coxey come with any considerable force the handling of him and of his followers would doubtless be left to the military, for the services of the Police would be more than ever needed in the city itself, where the criminal classes ‘would be watchful of opportunities to dis. turb and plunder—the absence of a hun- @red officers from their beats for any length of time would be an invitation sure of acceptance by the undesirable residents and these who would naturally be found in the midst of extraordinary excitement. But while the District of Columbia is at- tending to the condition which causes more than a little alarm—unless several of our more or less distant contemporaries do not Voice the sentiment of the communities im which they publish opinion—it might not be out of place for thoughtful and peace- fully inclined men the country over to dis- cuss the causes which have brought this Femarkable pilgrimage to pass. Are there Bot reasons for some of the discontent that lies beneath the demonstration which 4s planned for May 1, and if there are sound Feasons for the friction, how can the trou- bie be removed? Comparatively few people have any sympathy with the doctrine of fiat money; the industrial poverty which exists seems to be the motive force. Who has the remedy? ——__ + e+ After debate of the most exhaustive and @chausting sort—in which old straw was threshed and rethreshed—the House of Rep- Fesentatives yesterday evening postponed action on the bill to authorize the Metro- politan Railroad Company to change the motive power for the propulsion of its cars. There were members who were perfectly satisfied that before any further privileges should be granted the company it ought to pay the $147,000 and interest which it is al- leged to owe the District; others thought that $39,000 would be rufficient payment for the company to make; several were willing to have the House compromise on $50,000; while @ few argued that the company didn’t owe anybody anything. The conclusion reached after a wearisome and reiterative discus- sion was one that seems likely to result in @ fair settlement of this trouble. At any rate, the provision concerning the paving debt will give the District a chance to re- cover something, which is more than the Provision on this subject of the pending bill does. The bill was withdrawn from con- sideration with an understanding that in the two weeks which will elapse before the Eext District day, the District committee Will shape an amendment offered by Rep- resentative Cogswell, by the terms of which the whole question at issue is to be re- ferred to the Court of Appeals, the rail- Toad company to waive any benefit that it May have by reason of the statute of limi- tations in this much-talked of case. soe The crusade which is being made against Policy-playing in the District is one deserv- ing of popular support. Of all the forms of gambling, no other works more mischief @mong the poorer classes than that known as policy, and those of the authorities who are intent on breaking it up locally are de- serving of praise. But while argus-eyed Officers detect those who are the minor in- Struments and hurry them to richly deserv- ed punishment, who, it may be asked, is in Search of the man whose money and in- fluence keeps the evil-working machinery in continuous operation? Wherever policy flourishes there does the rich “backer” ex- ist; clever! raled he may be, but he is there nevertheless. The police are doing Well in this campaign against a most de- moralizing v they should continue to Dick up the “runners” and all cthers who @re openly connected with the diurnal rob- ber but the arrest and conviction of one backer will do more to kill policy in this re- gion than the incarceration of a hundred minor offenders. — +02 —___ Citizens of Georg: said to be Making personal s to a fund with which to reward the man through whose Ingenuity “Jack the Slasher” was caught. Why should gratitude of the most expressive sort be confined to Georgetown? If every man and woman in the District ef Columbia who was scared by the daring criminal, now safe in jail, would subscribe @ dollar each, the Slasher’s captor would speedily take rank with the richest men of the community. ——_ +++ —_ If Senator John T. Morgan of Alabama, @hairman of the Senate Committee on For- eign Relations, can i in making law of his bill for the reorganization of the | State Department he will confer on this country a great and lasting benefit and place the nation under obligations not easily to be forgotten. The Senator's purp explained in T tar, is to take the foreign fervice and the department work out of pol- . to provide that appointments shall be miy when the applicant is educatic ally qualified and is superior as to att ments to all other applicants in the same lass, to make the service continuous and to provide aa equitable system of promo- tion. Rightfully ercugh, Senator in- Sists that consular o! own are ubscription 1 th and all the minor Officials of the State Depa appointed and retained in the service be- eause of their special fitness therefor, and } he deems no man ‘it who cannot pass a sat- | tsfactory exam | | made up of politicians in the narrowest '$6.50 FORA sah * BE $6.50 aot | $6 Drnlap THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, APRIL 10, 1894A-TWELVE PAGES. and a most capable critic, has recently tes- tified to the pressing necessity for reform in the consular service. In the North American Review for April Mr. Wharton said: “It seems to be the common opinion that anybody can fill a consular office, and it is curious to note how the character of the applicants for these offices has re- flected the popular sentiment. With some exceptions, of course, they have been largely meaning of the term, of broken down and unsuccessful professional or business men, of invalids, of men of moderate means who desired to stay abroad to educate their chil- dren and at the same time wanted some oc- cupation for themselves as a pastime, and some times of men whose sole claim to an appointment was that they had worn out the patience and endurance of their friends im this country by their worthlessness, and were to be sent away to free their friends from the burden of caring for them.” Sen- ator Morgan would make it impossible for such people to hold responsible positions, or, in fact, positions of any sort, under the State Department, and if Congress desires to do the only proper thing it will indorse the Senator’s effort and place the bill he has framed on the statute book. Under the provisions of such a law, clever young and | middle-aged men (twenty years and forty- five years are the age limits) will be at- tracted to the service, for permanency of tenure would be assured during good be- havior, and there would be certainty of pro- motion so long as there was efficiency. The idea which Senator Morgan has taken in his paternal care is wholly good. + e.____ The prophet who some years ago de- clared that David B. Hill's election to the | Senate meant his political burial has been | busy for some time past cultivating a new | style of horoscope. +++ It is believed by many people that Lilluo- | Kalani can achieve her desire to visit this | country in a quiet and economical manner | by sitting down and waiting to be annexed | into the United States. There are intimations to the effect that | Le Caron is not dead. It is certainly car- | Tying suspicion to an extreme to cast doubt on a man’s funeral. += It is a fact worth noting that the phrase “eloquent silence” was not invented to ap- ply to Mr. Croker of New York. a “Blown up by his own dynamite” is the most satisfactory epitaph that the an- archist can hav: >. Mr. Coxey has at least accomplished one |thing. He will be known as “general” for the rest of his life. ——— SHOOTING STARS. Sallie Up to Date. Of all the girls that are bo cute, There's none so fair as Sallie. She's a thinking star, so her lips are mute, In the back row of the ballet. With a winsome pout, And her toes turned out, She is seen habitu-ally. She can give pointers on a bathing suit, In the back row of the hallet. “Haven't you made Mr. Bulger’s portrait a good deal more than life size?” said one artist to another. “Perhaps. You see, that’s as big as he thinks he is.” “I will now appear in ‘full dress,’ re- marked the bartender, as he removed his coat and put on his large white apron. A Comfortable Dream. “Life is but a dream,” some men declare, But it’s fraught with visions exceeding fair, And I hope while they their attractions keep, I shall be permitted to oversleep. Inconsiderate. “What are you wearing dark glasses for?” said one clerk to another. “You never had trouble with your eyes before, did you?’ “Never. But the janitor came around when I wasn't looking and washed the win- dow by my desk. The sudden glare was too much for me.” So Careless. “Oh, wasted opportunity: I heard her cry with rage “T've gotten a divorce, and yet I ne'er went on the stage.” A Gentle Critic. The visitor in Washington was passing the spot on the south side of Pennsylvania avenue which holds out the promise of a new post office. “What is this?’ “The new post office. don’t you think?” “Well, it has a good healthy color; but the Style of architecture seems a little drafty.” +e __ ist Fakers in Hawall. From the Honelulu Couancreial Advertiser. The royalists are said to be as confident as ever of the restoration of the ex-queen. One of them—a proriinent white man this time—stated, confidently, that she would be restored’ in a ‘days. The native papers are, of course, largely responsible for this state of affairs, as they still con- tinue to publish falsehoods and forged news on the subject. A number of natives in the country districts are also possessed with an impression that there is trouble brewing, which will be on tap in a few days. oe Not Half so Funny as It Was, From the Baltirsore American. As the Coxey army nears the capital the humor cf the situation, which but a short time ago was prominent in the comment of the movement, grows beautifully less. It is now ceneeded practically that it is a matter coming sore in the province of the police thzsn that of the humorist. Com-mon Seise Its Own Reward. From the Chicago Tribune.
