4 ,— THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 11, 1894-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY. .April 11, 1894. CROSRY s. NOYES... THE EVENING STAR bas 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- petitor, oid delays, om ac- e, letters to The railroad corparies which operate joads runnin; into this city owe it to a eommunity in which they have been too highly favored that they do nothing what- foever to encourage the Jarge number of discentented and crarky people who have planred and are executing a pilgrimage to Washington which is to terminate on or before the first day of May next. It has been argued—and there is reason in the contention—that men in search of employ- ment should not, and cannot legally, be @iscouraged from seeking in this city the work they have failed to find elsewhere, but no one has claimed that the multitude which is to follow Coxey is in quest of hard labor. These disturbed ones—most of them afllicted with “isms” of many kinds and €éterally impracticable—have announced that their only aim is to influence Congress to, enact certain bills in which the visionary Goctrires have been given typographical in- earration. These loudly advertised thou- sands come without means for their own support and in accordance with a plan in ‘which mendicancy is the most corspicuous feature. So far, the organized portion of Coxey’s army has lived upon the country throcgh which it has passed, and in many places are sympathizers who will, when the @pprcpriate time comes, follow the example ®f their leader and march to meet him at B repdezvous not far from this city. But ebjecticrable as is this movement toward the National Capital, it is not likely to as- sume dangerous dimensions at this time if ‘tthe invading force is composed exclusively of pedestrians. The affair assumes an immediately threat- wning appearance when the railroad com- panies permit the use of their rolling-stock by those who desire easy and gratuitous transportation to a center where an effort #s to be made to inaugurate a new de- Parture in the methods of government “of FE people, for the people and by the peo- pie’ Every day brings with it informa- tion of “industrial armies” and the lke being rushed through toward this city with fl possible speed. There is no legitimate ex- @use for such action. Washington is not a large manufacturing town and, ther2fore, holds out no inducement to the «rtisan. It/has already very many more of its own people unemployed than it can properly €are for; it has been struggling with the Yocal relief problem all winter; there is Bo reason why any outside workingmen or any outside mendicants should be imported. No considerable numbers of either are likely to get here at any one time unless the railroad companies lend themselves to the scheme which Coxey has planned so elaborately and carried out so far with rea- sonable success. There is a law—sensible in its provisions and sound—which holds to responsibility any person or corporation that brings into this city anyone likely to become a public charge. If it becomes Recessary the authorities will doubtless in- Voke the afd of that statute and will secure @t least enough cash from the offending companies to pay Yor the temporary sup- Port of those who are wrongfully dumped Into the midst of this community. Cc7v_ SO Oo Loyal citizens of the United States, no matter what their political belief, cannot but regard with seriousness the accusa- thon made by Senator Hale of Maine against the tariff bill now under discussion. In rent is also much higher here than in Eng- land, but this is at least counterbalanced by the fact that a very large proportion of the American wage-earners own their own | homes—better and more comfortable In ev- ery respect than the residences of people jimilarly employed in the United Kingdom. “The standard of living,” say the dele- gates, “is undoubtedly much higher in America than at home, and the men state that they weuld require to live better, else they would be unable to work as they are expected to do. * * * Fruit in season Is invariably seen in considerable quantities on the tables of working men, and butcher meat, either in the shape of pie, roast or stew, is partaken of by most of them three times every day.” The investigators tes- tify that the working people here are al- ways well clothed, that cotton goods and shoes are as cheap as they are in Great Britain, but that woolen clothing, on ac- count of tariff duties, costs twice as much as it would in the “old country.” Medical attendance Is said to be very expensive, and somewhat ludicrous prominence is given the 100 per cent exaggerated state- ment that a considerable item in the ex- Ppenses of the American workingman is the blacking of his shoes, for which he Is, say these good men from Dundee, taxed ten cents for each shine; but neither of these objections really amounts to much when we read the announcement that “artisans, if they have steady work and are provident, can usually save about double what they would be able to do in Scotland or England, although—and here is another saving clause—it must be borne in mind that! money in America has, comparatively ispeaking, a much lower purchasing value.” ‘The conditions of labor here are said to be much more severe than across the water; more being required of the toiler in a cli- mate which is alleged to be rapidly de- structive of vitality. But, in spite of these drawbacks—many of them imaginary—the keen searchers after information failed to find any Scotchmen or Englishmen who were willing to leave the United States for the purpose of taking up permanent resi- dence as wage-earners in the lands whence they originally came. Discussing the evi- dence set before it by its own agents, the Dundee News is satisfied that the lot of the ome-worker will compare favorably with the conditions that are found to prevail in America.” The American who reads the testimony will easily arrive at the belief that subjects of Her Majesty resident in the United States are too well satisfied with their lot to retrace their steps. If the con- ditions were really better in England the emigrative stream would move eastward. 2+ ____ The disgusting doctrine that immorality is to be preferred to morality when it promises mcre of temporary comfort or greater financial profit, can never take root in the heart of any decent man or woman, be his or her place of residence Kentucky or the District of Columbia. ee The bona fide vagrant will contemplate with a feeling of disgust the disposition to turn his quarters in the penal institutions over to the Coxey amateurs. ——— ree - If personal dislikes could be kept out of Senator Hill's speeches and the President's appointments the country might be a great deal more harmonious. —_———+ oe ___ The democrats in New Jersey saved what is known as the “horse shoe” district. But there was not enough luck in it to go "round. —_ - + e+ —___- Mr. Hill may be a believer in the princi- ple that it takes a gentle discord now and then to make harmony really appreciated. oe Mr. Croker having concluded his outing, it is believed that public sentiment in New York will take its inning. +e — The end of the Breckinridge trial will draw the veil on a good many horrors, moral and pictorial. —_ + ++ A prize contest might be opened for the best explanation of what “I am a demo- crat” really means. the course of a dispassionate analysis of the measure Senator Hale this afternoon Said: “I do not hesitate to charge that @s affecting this region of our country (tie states immediately south of the inter- ‘ational boundary line) this bill is made up after a fashion that could not have better satisfied the Canadians had a com- mittee of their own taken this subject in charge and fixed their own schedules and @uties." That is not a light or an uncon- Bidered utterance. Senator Hale emphasized that fact by mforming the Senate that he was fully aware of the grave responsibility he assumed in making that statement. It 4s unquestionably the destiny of Canada Shat it shall some day enter the Union, but, as the Senator contends, the ten- @ency of certain sections of the bill is to indefinitely postpone the consolidation. If the policy of the measure is enacted into law the Senator looks “to see the growing gentiment for annexation die out” and ex- Dects “that in the generation to come we should find ourselves with a growing and Possibly hostile rival along our entire north- ern border.” Against this sort of argument will be set up the piea that the United States does not want Canada and that there would be no advantage in acquiring the vast territory which stretches to the Artic. But there does not seem to be any answer to the question: “Why should American money be dsed to build up what May soon prove to be a formidable and entl-republican business and political rival?” —_ + ++ ___ Clean street-car tickets on all the lines Punning in the District of Columbia will Gurely be the result of the Senate bill Passed by the House on Monday, and, while ‘Boe people may be inclined to regard the Feform as one of minor degree, it is never- theless a reform to be thankful for. Fora While Washington enjoyed the distinction of having more disgustingly dirty street- ar tickets than any other city in the coun- try. No one knows how often they were Feissued to the public, and no one cares to Speculate on the changing conditions under which the little scraps of pasteboard existed for so long a time. All the arguments that have ever been made against paper Money held good as to these tickets, and it will relieve many minds to know that as Boon as the Senate can pass upon a slight amendment the measure will take its Place nm the statute book. —_— +. —____ One of the rather notable vi @equent upon the W ‘Who came across from Dundee to s. the Wonders of Jackson Park and to look crit- feally into the condition of wa: the United States and ada.

Very latest style covert and other cloth suits worth |up to $25 for only $8.48 and Silk Waists worth up to $12 for $2.98, $3.98 and $4.98. These facts are | being told of by one woman to another more rapidly than even The Star circu- lates the news. The Palais Royal “buyers are sent to the whole- sale markets in these “dull times" when the rep- Tesentatives of most merchants are at home trying to dispose of goods unsold. Thus we offer you Sults and Waists at less prices than paid at wholesale by the merchants who bought earlier in the season, and who cannot or dare not now buy more, Isn't the moral this: The Palats Royal has an outlet—a trade iu Suits, &e.—greater than any other establisbment in Washington. If this 1s not the conclusion, how is It that such garments at such ridiculously low prices can only be had at the Palas Royal? And think of Fancy Lawn Wrappers with ruffled yoke and Watteau plait for only 69¢ when the lowest price elsewhere is $1.50. Best Indigo Wrappers at 69¢ that are good value at $1....Best Percale Wrappers at 9Se instead of $1.25. And compare the following with the so-called bar- gains of the merchants who rely on words rather than deeds: Compare the ten styles of Jackets we offer at $3.98 with their §5 bargains; our nine styles at $4.98 with any elsewhere at $6. And can you mateh these $4.98 Capes at less than $5.50 or those at $6.98 at less than §7.50?— Do not deeds speak louder than words?
