4 THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 1804—~TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, THURSDAY. April 26, 1894. Editor. —==— = ‘THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulati of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. Cee ESE NOSE eee eee oa ee &7Im order to avoid delays, on ac- fount of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to The reports from the west of acts of violence committed by “Industrial armies” on their way to join the original Coxey army, now nearing this city, emphasize the fear expressed concerning the general movement that however peaceable the orig- imators of the “march to Washington” may have intended their enterprise to be, the many lawless men who would join it would be beyond control. When a mob claiming to be a part of the “industrial army” commits a robbery and then resists to the extreme of bloodshed the constituted authorities of the land, a threatening sig- nificance is given to the march upon Wash- ington of all the other regiments of the “army,” with the hint of what will happen when the lawless elements included in their ranks get beyond the control of their ec- centric leaders. Coxey’s immediate force assumes the character of the advance- guard, marching under a flag of peace, of an army that robs and kills and defies the law. Many fine words have been spoken about liberty and the rights of citt- zens. There is no good American who could, without protest, see the humblest member of Coxey’s army deprived of any real right. When liberty is carried to the point where it involves @ menace against the peace and lives of others it becomes license. The rights of citizenship are well defined, and are Mmited by the rights of others. Tne great mass of the American people, who are not engaged in marches “on to Wash- ington,” have rights, and one of them is the peaceable enjoyment of their homes and property without molestation or fear of molestation. When bodies of men, some of them already guilty of acts of rapine and violence, and containing lawless elements, are moving toward Washington avowedly for the purpose of compelling legislation by @ show of force, do not the conditions exist which constitute an invasion, or a threat- ened invasion of the rights of others, and which would justify measures that would remove the threatened danger? In the discussion of the Coxey movement, the Coxey army has been put in the attt- tude, so to speak, of “a chip on the shoulder.” A great many well-meaning people while disclaiming any sympathy with the Coxey financial theories have declared their pur- pose to rise in indignant protest if the Coxey army was met at the gates of the capital by any show of force or authority. So, in this view, the Coxey movement has become a sort of challenge to the constitut- ed° authorities on the part of those who claim to be jealous of the rights of the American people. That the officials charged with the execution of the law, and with the protection of the rights of citizens general- ly, as well as those of Coxey’s army, realize that the task before them is one of embar- Tassment is evident, but it is believed that, from the President down, they will meet what they believe to be their duty, firmly, and if there is occasion for prompt and de- cisive action, will take that action fearless- ly, and without any delicate refinements as to the rights of threatening and violent mobs. ‘The appeal made by the District Commis- sioners to the good sense of the leaders of the oncoming “armies” seems to have had no effect further than to emphasize the lunacy of the leaders, by calling out a declaration of their intent to test the law. That the Commissioners are justified in Preparing for the execution of the laws, which they say are adequate for every emergency, cannot now, in view of the hap- Penings of the last two days, be question- ed, It is the part of good citizens generally to give their support to the officials, in whatever measures may have to be taken to make secure lives and property. The men with Coxey are admittedly without means of support. If they do not become beggars in the streets, individually, they have already assumed that attitude col- lectively, as those ciaiming to represent them in Washington have issued their ap- peal to citizens to contribute to the sup- port of the “army” while here. They are coming to be a charge upon the community, and seemingly in such numbers as to in- spire terror. No humane person would favor a rigorous enforcement of the law against @ man simply because Ke is poor or hungry; nor would the thinking people of the coun- try oppose any movement that promised by lawful methods to ameliorate the con- dition of the poor or give work to the un- unemployed. So far as the Coxey movement can be taken as an evidence of the distress of the unemployed it has attracted the sympathy of all men, but the leaders of the move- ment must not mistake this sympathy for an approval by the American people of mob methods. The American workingmen are too intelligent as a class to take part in such a demonstration or to give it any substantial aid. They know that the peo- ple can take the government in their own hands, by lawful methods, whenever they choose to so take it. As to the Coxey army, whenever it is apparent to them that the “army” has violated law or invaded the Fights of others, it may be safely asserted that the workingmen will be found arrayed solidly on the side of law and order. ———+ ++ —__ Today the Odd Fellows of the District of Columbia paraded over some of the city’s principal streets and made a brave showing. Of all the many secret benevolent societies mone ere more broadly founded or have a membership more solidly desirable than the Odd Fellows. Banded together to do good these citizens deserved and doubtless will continue to deserve all the applause which their display of today called forth. ——_+ += ____. Im criticising John Jacob Astor’s novel we hope the literati will remember that it is wrong to “jump on” a man simply be- cause he is rich. ———_++e_____ Cities in which the overhead-tr6lley sys- tem of street-car propulsion was once upon a time popular now have their eyes open and are looking around for something to take the place of the “cheap and nasty” motor. There are two reasons for this movement toward civilization. One is a @esire to do away with obstructive poles and exposed wires of the dangerous sort; the other ts the result of fears born of the latest Information as to causes of fires heretofore regarded as mysterious. Mr. H. C. Cushing, jr., who is electrical inspector of the Boston Board of Fire Underwriters and of the Boston Fire Underwriters’ Union, has been giving a good deal of time to investigating these mysterious conflagra- tions and has come to the conclusion that the great majority of them which occur anywhere in the vicinity of the overhead- trolley lines are due to ectrolytic action on gas and water pipes. Mr. Cushing says that in the cel nd basements of many houses he found quite a large difference of electrical pressure between two pipes enter- ing within one foot of each other, it was a very easy n © of hoop iron and are sufficient to ignite a pi near it, and nnecting together with a piece of No. the current flowing thre to heat it too hot to be touched by the bare hand. ©, ally he discovered people who took advantage of the vagrant current.

But interesting as is this instance of New England thrift, it is more interesting as evidence of the great danger that continu- ally exists where overhead-trolley companies leave to the ground the work of returning their current to the power houses. Mr. Cushing says that sometime ago his at- tention was called to two pipes which were so close together that the vibration of an elevator engine caused thm to knock to- gether just sufficient to create an arc every time the contact was made and broken. This had been going on so that it had almost completely eaten through the gas-pipe; “and,” says the investigator, “it is perfectly evident what would have taken place had this been allowed to go on unobserved. The gas would have been ignited, as soon as the first small hole appeared, by the electric spark, and disastrous results would have undoubtedly followed.” And still there are people, who would be offended were they declared to be unintelligent, who insist that the overhead-trolley is the ideal street-car motor. Only a few of these reside in Wash- ington. —Refrigerators —Slip Covers —Window Screens. he “Quaker City’’ a) Ee ——___+ ++ ____ New Jersey has evidently made up its mind that the race-track gamblers whom it exiled some time ago and who have been persistent in their endeavors to locate themselves in the District of Columbia shall stay away from Jersey. Both branch- es of the legislature have been considering an anti-gambling bill, have agreed upon its terms and have sent it to the governor. The bill is much better than our local law, because it is specific and because it makes both parties to the gambling operation equally guilty, even if it does not punish them equally. It provides that any person convicted of buying a book or pool, or gam- bling in any way, upon a horse race, shall be punished by a fine of $500 and two years’ imprisonment. Persons convicted of sell- ing books or pools, or keeping a place where such acts are permitted, shall be fined from $1,000 to $5,000 and imprisoned from one to five years. The judge is with- out discretion in the matter of sentence and must inflict both fine and imprison- ment. This law unquestionably represents the sentiment of the decent people in Jer- sey and renders it impossible for the gam- blers who have assailed Washington to re- turn there and resume operations. It may be, and it quite probably is, that out of such legislation will come that rare va- bosom, neck riety of sport—honest horse racing. In re- sizes énd 5 sleeve lengths to each.
