ex oho a -—- > THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. ‘TUESDAY..... --May 15, 1894. Editor. HE EVENING STAR has a regula: permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. ‘There are some republicans who have en- gouraged the threatening demonstrations of Phe voluntarily or involuntarily unemployed, m@ order to score a political point against the democrats. They have ascribed the lack of employment to the tariff agitation and the democratic threat of free trade, and, knowing that responsibility for hard times Is always visited upon the administration, they have secretly fostered these displays of organized discontent. ‘There are some democrats who have smiled Epon the Coxey demonstrations because they have seemed to discover therein an argu- ment against republican protection. The manufacturing employers, they say. by con~ stantly asking for duties to support them, have given the employed the impression that government exists to feed them and to en- able them to exist. Hence, they claim, these wild demands for legislation; the republi- ans are responsible for Coxeyism. Many popuiists,disclaiming sympathy with the specific purposes of these demonstra-~ tions, encourage them opegjy, seeking po- Mtical capital thereby. The populist party has been the political cave Adullam, where “every one that was in distress, and every one that was in debt, and every one that ‘was discontented, gathered themselves,” and every form of organized discontent, no mat- ter how mischievous and dangerous, is wel- comed as promising to swell the number of populistic recruits. Then there are demagogues, who, without regard to their political affiliations, have sought personal aggrandizement in pander- ing to mob passion and lawlessness. These selfish and short-sighted politicians are playing with fire. The flames will not be confined within the limits prescribed by | those who fan the kindling spark. The safety of the republic, threatened on the one hand by aggregated wealth in the shape of grasping trusts and greedy semi- publi¢ corporations, and on the other hand by the anarchist, the voluntary vagrant and criminal, the pauper by reason of personal prejudice against honest labor, is to be pro- tected by the great niddie class in point of wealth, the working people of America, the brain as well as the bone and sinew of the Tepublic, the bulwark of American patriot- ism and American law. The men who through their ballots make this government one of the people, by the people and for the people are not to be misled into encourage- ment of defiance of the laws of their own making. They will not permit a few lawless tramps to cause the word workingman to become synonymous with law-breaker and advocate of mob-rule, and dignify the word capitalist by applying it to all who obey and defend the law, and would protect represen- tative government against all assaults upon it, whether by a Caesar or by the mob. ‘When the reign of law in the republic is shaken and legislation is moulded by physi- cal pressure of threatening mobs, the gov- ernment of the people, by the people and for the people will be about to perish from the earth. History teaches that the lawless rule of the mob is the invariable preface to the despotism of the dictator and the stand- ing army. ——__ + +> -__—_—_ Once in awhile the man who goes into the boycotting business gets considerably the worse end of the struggle. As a rule, the boycotter is not deserving of sympathy even when his cause is a good one, so there will be no great amount of sorrow ex- pressed over the result of a little conflict in the great French manufacturing center— Lyons. The story as told by the London Daily News is that a glass blower named Exgeras was some time ago discharged from the employment of M. Carre and re- placed by another man named Oberle. The trade-union to which the discharged work- man belonged demanded of his successor a certain percentage of the latter's wages towards the funds of the society. This Oberle refused to pay and the society de- manded his dismissal. The employer, who Feally desired to have Oberle continue in his service, was threatened with a strike, to avert which he discharged both Oberle and his daughter, who happened to be a toiler in the same establishment. Most men in Oberle’s place would have imagined that the fight was at end with the loss of posi- tion, but Oberle was another kind of a man. He brought suit against the society and re- covered the sum of %”) francs damages. ‘The decision of the court will doubtless in- terest a good many people on this side of the Atlantic, for equities are equities all the world over. Lyons has probably seen the last of anything like open boycotting. + ee On several occasions The Star has found it necessary to call attention to the fact that the Congressional Record fails to pre- sent an accurate photograph of Congres- sional proceedings, and the Record which Was published this morning presents ad- ditional evidence of default. The news- Dapers of yesterday afternoon and this morning told the story of a colloquy be- _ tween Speaker Crisp and an occupant of One of the galleries, Mr. Matthew A.Cherry. Mr. Cherry made some interesting re- marks, addressed to the House in proper fashion through the Speaker, and the Speaker in reply audibly communicated with one of the doorkeepers. he inc'dent was a deeply interesting one—on a par generally with the appearance on the floor of Representative Reagan in a bathrobe or with the later sensation in which Repre- sentative C. Buckley Kilgere, a boot-toe and ® bolted door conjunctively fgured—and yet the Record never made mention of the eccurrence. Some of these days a host of indignant subscribers will ,cease to sub- scribe and then the Record’s publishers will wish they had run a newspaper in- stead of an organ. + None of the gentlemen who write anec- @otes about the sagacity of animals have Diied their pens to celebrate the fact that ® Pennsylvania eagle that carried off a bot- tle of hair restorer turned out to be a bald eagle. It is a theme that should not be neglected. +e The sudden conclusion of District day in the House yesterday temporarily interfered with what would doubtless have been a most interesting debate, for Representative Hepburn had just offered an amendment to the Beit Railway Company’s extension bill, in which he provided “that all of the cars of said Belt Railway Company shall, after the first day of January, 1896, be operated by underground electric or cable motive power.” To this amendment the company, tc is understood, will make strenuous objec- tion, but the probabilities are all against the corporate protést receiving sertous con- sideration In either branch of Congress. The idea that there shall be an increase in the number of horse-car lines at this day and at the national capital is inexcusably absurd, and will be sat upon by Congress as surely as that idea makes its appear- ance in the form of opposition to the Hep- burn or some similar amendment. Every ene who knows about Washington street- railroad matters knows that the Belt com- bany—which really includes the Eckington and Soldiers’ Home Company also—is owned by what is popularly known as the “trolley syndicate’—an association organ- ized for the purpose of controlling and operating by that ancient and dangerous method of overhead heavily-charged elec- tric wires as many street railroads as it can secure possession of. Active repre- sentatives of this powerful combination have been working upon Congress for some years, but up to this time they have failed completely to secure any further foothold within the city limits than the one which now obstructs New York Avenue, and which by law must be removed in little more than a year from now. Both the Sen- ate and House have spoken in no uncertain tones against the overhead trolley, and the House so strongly emphasized its opposi- tion to the “cheap and nasty” system in legislating on the Mount Vernon road yes- terday that the hopes of the syndicate must have about departed. With the overhead trolley absolutely forbidden, what does the company propose to use as motive power? Of course objection will be made to the un- Gerground electric or cable methods be- cause of their alleged expense, but if the company cannot afford to give the people of this city good service, with a modern and unobjectionable motor, it should cease all effort to extend its lines, and content itself with the property it now has and the privileges already in ‘ts possession. There is room for very much improvement in its present equipment; more of energy applied to necessary reform and less of lobbying for gifts it has never done anything to de- serve would be appreciated by a long-suf- fering public. —_— a -_— ‘The type of unsound mind displayed by the colored man who addressed the House of Representatives yesterday from the gal- lery is so common in the experience of the public that it has ceased to attract much attention. This particular disturber’s state- men: to the House was to the effect that he was “moved by the Lord” to do certain things and his hallucination was so deeply founded that the victim believed in it im- Plicitly. It seems to be the accepted rule of society that so long as such people are not moved to deeds of violence, either against person or property, their freedom of action is not to be restricted. Mainly on this ground Coxey has been allowed to bring together a number of irresponsible men and to lead them through the country on a mission impossible of fulfillment. Coxey claims that this has been done by him as the representative of the American people, yet he was comipelled to admit to the House committee on labor the other day that he was without credentials and could show no authority for the claim he had so broadly made. It is quite as im- possible for Coxey to present proofs as it is for the deluded colored man to marshal evidence establishing his assertion of Di- vine authority for disturbing the House of Representatives with threats. Thus far neither of these possessors of imaginative commissions have done any great harm; | their tendency, however, is recognized as dangerous to the peace and welfare of so- ciety. It is perfectly reasonable to advo- cate legal restrictions for such il!-balanced persons; their Mberty may easily result in broken law. ———__++0- -———_ It may not be amiss to remind the com- monwealers who are en route that the “keep off the grass” sign is duing business at the old stand. ——__ + +s —__—_ The Washington base ball team has no concern in the tempests that may toss the other members of the league. It is safe in the cyclone cellar. —-- + oe “General” Coxey’s parents do not favor his movement.

He met his fine all undismayed, And as he turned, these words let fall: “Tis better to have kicked and paid, Than never to have kicked at all.” “One ob de average man’s greates’ mis- takes,” said Uncle Eben, “am payin’ too much ‘tention ter de mistakes dat comes undah ‘is notice in uddah people. Dah ain’ ho sense in gittin’ ober an’ pullin’ up de weeds in anuddah man's gyahden.” Didn't Recognize It. It was plain, unfiltered water that the head of the family was pouring from the pitcher at the breakfast table. The young- est of the family looked at the yellow liquid with interest as it was recklessly quaffed, and at last said enviously: “Papa.” “What is it?” “Can't I please have some of that, too?” A Critic Criticised. “Some of these Senators make a great mistake by rushing into print,” said the critical citizen. “By doing what?” may get into print, but they don’t do it that way.” Two ladies sank gratefully into the place on the horse car that had been gallantly vacated for their benefit. When they had gotten breath one of them said: “Have you been reading anything about this woman's suffrage movement?” “A little: “But you are not much interested tn it?” “No. I think we had better enjoy the rights we have than fly to others that we know not of.” A Promise of Pleasure. There's a song of the rollicking surf in the air, There's a promise, once more, of this pleas- ure so rare, This joy that a frolic for kings could not dim, That we find when we dawdle and dabble and swim. Who cares for the sneer of the pessimist prig About garb that is scanty and bills that are big?
