4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY +-May 25, 1894. CROSBY S. NOYES. = = THE EVENING STAR has a regular and Permanent circulation much more than the combined circulat: of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. the Editorial or Business Department, according to tenor or purpose. Stories of sanguinary encounters between officers of the law and striking coal-miners are prominent features in the news each @ay, teaching a lesson that this country, Sooner or later, will be bound to heed. More} than ordirarily conspicuous was the battle; at La Salle, DL, yesterday, which, from all the information that can be had, may be said to have been commenced without cause by some of the most undesirable varieties | of the European ruffian with which this country is afflicted. The occurrences of the past week or two in the coal and coke regions have forced open the eyes ef many Americans who, heretofore, were wilfully biind. Now, nothing more is needed to accentuate the necessity for the adoption of the most rigorous sort of im- migration laws by which the further impor- tation of such an undesirable element may be entirely prevented. And yet, it is rot quite fair to lay all the blame for the riot- ous proceedings upon the shoulders of these Poles, Hungarians, Italians and others who, at this time, are so violently conspicuous. For the most part these sinners against Jaw and order were induced to migrate luther by the glib misrepresentations of the emigration agents who overrun Europe and with great volubility describe the lib- erty which is enjoyed under the stars and stripes as a species of unrestricted license. The majority of foreign laborers now in this country were undoubtedly attracted to these shores by those smooth-tongued agents—many of whom were in the employ of the coal operators who are now crying alcud to the authorities for protection against the cheap labor that was imported by the operators because the American workingman insisted upon receiving living Wages in return for his toil. Congress can easily erect a legal barricade along the coast-line of the United States which will effectually keep out all the undesirable classes of foreigners who desire to come in om their own account, as well as the mul- titude of cheap laborers which so many of the employers of this country seek to bring in for their own purposes. It is not too much to say that every shot that is fired in the riots which are now of such frequent occurence in the coal regions could have been prevented if wise legisla- tion, ded to restrict immigration, had been placed upon the statute books when the universal voice of the country was first raised in favor of it over a decade ago. oe This, In the United States, is the era of economy, and it ts only natural that such should be the case. ssed with abundant harvests, and a demand for our products that far exceeded the supply, this nation for many years enjoyed a period of pros- perity the like of which no other nation has ever known. But such affluence could not long continue; there must be an oc- casional lessening of demand—contractions in the markets upon which we depend for support—and this, combined with all sorts of political and minor industrial complica- tions, has worked a mervelous change in the natures of people who a year or two ago were scattering dollars abroad as lib- erally as a farmer might scatter chaff. Economy, however, should not be regarded as an evil; Seneca said that it is in itself a source of great revenue—a consideration Mot to be sneezed at by those legislators ‘who are now b-inging about the discharge of government employes by the wholesale, and salary-reductions without end. But there is economy that is not economical, and with that variety thousands of people fm this city have had far too intimate a quaingance. Proper economy is another sort of a thing—to be commended at all times. It is hoped that this Congress and those who are now at the heads of the various executive departments will speedily realize the distinction between the true and the faise, and will refrain from adding un- necessarily to the distress which is now so prevalent. —— _ +e- —_ New England democrats are very much disgcsted over the behevior of the majority im the House when the appropriations for the support of the Civil Service Commission were being discussed in the committee of the whole. The Congressioral disposition just now is to intimate that the House was @erely having “fun” with the Commission, but this very transparent explanation is not being accepted with avidity in New York, Connecticut or Massachusetts, where belief in the doctrines of civil service re- form is deeply founded, and where an as- sault upon the system is generally resented at the polls. The denunciatory language used by Messrs. Enloe, Pendleton and Will- jams nay bring forth jubilatory response from Tennessee, West Virginia and Missis- sippil, where ail the resident civil service re- formers combined could hardly change the vote of a single couaty, but in the north and east things are very different, and the re- former is a power m't-h hated and feared by abe professional pelitician; in whose pathway the reformer is continually throwing all sorts of obstacles in the interest of good goverrment. Congressmen who are un- mindful of an earthly hereafter beyond the Present session may see fit to amuse them- selves as some of them did in the House for @ day or two this weck, but they should be careful that in so doing they damage not the prospects of those who are of the same Political faith, but who come from regions where constituents are exacting and closely in touch with the times. — +++ ____ Some of New York's politicians will con- template with much interest Lord Kose- bery’s success in keeping his record as a horse-racer from overshadowing his career as a statesman. ica The President gets back from his outing im time to take up the debace on the tariff Just about where he left it. ——__ +2 Mr. Coxey was in many respects objec- tionable, but he didn’t insist on being Re- corder of Deeds. aakone There is no likelihood that C. H. J. Taylor will follow Van Aien's seif-respecting ex- ample. —_—_ + «+ —___ It is said that Croker was once a pugilist. And yet he ts not a popular idol. ee It does not need the investigation of a board of expert inquisitorial accountants to discover the fact that more than two thous- and dollars a year are being wasted in the Office of the recorder of deeds for the Dis- trict of Columbia. Of course, two thousand dollars may seem to be a small sum, but in these hard times it is worth the saving, especially when the saving will not work even the least injustice to anyone. Under the law, as it now is, the recorder is a presi- ential appointee who receives, in return for the majesty of his semi-occasional presence at the office, the sum of $4,000 per annum. Now, everyone who has any acquaintance with the work of deed-recording in this city is fully aware of the fact that the recorder- ship is a purely decorative sort of position, entirely non-essential—save that it is well for the office to have a directing force—and excessively expensive. With few ex: tions, the recorders have always been ex- travagantly remunerated figure heads, the Feal running of the offi Tce being done by the) ! @eputy. in view of these unassailable facts, | it Would be no more than right for the Senate, when it is considering the District of Columbia appropriation bill, to reduce the recorder’s salary to reasonable figures, say $1,900 or $2,000. Then it should also pro- vide that the recorder shall hereafter be appointed by the District Commissioners; just as are the collector of taxes, the as- sessor, the auditor and a number of other officials, all of much greater importance, of- ficially, than the recorder of deeds. The re- sult of this reform would be a slight, but justifiable reduction in expeditures, simplifi- cation in the municipal government of the city, and, more than all, the removal of the one inducement which makes the office as attractive to hungry carpet-baggers as the carcass of a deceased horse is to a flock of hungry buzzards. Here is a chance to make a righteous change in the local law. Will Congress permit the opportunity to pass by unimproved? —_++—___ The phonograph is being used with mark- ed effect in English courts. Recently a rail- road company was sued by the owner of premises upon a street under which the road had runatunnel. The complaint stated that the noise of the trains going through the tunnel was so great as to utterly pre- vent sleep, while existence in daylight was meade unbearable by the same cause. The railroad company’s attorneys produced in court a phonograph which they had man- aged to have placed in the premises in ques- tion, and when it was put in motion, and failed to emit any of the terrible noises al- leged to have been suffered by the com- plainants, and the fact that it had been on active duty in the building occupied by the latter was sufficiently established, the judge dismissed the complaint without further ceremony, virtually holding that the evi- dence of the phonograph was more accept- able than that of the interested plaintiffs. This decision will open a great new field for the remarkable instrument, but it is to be trusted that the students of today who are taking notes to be used in the future in the preparation of a history of these times will not press the phonograph into service to prove hereafter the truth of their chapters. Think what the effect wouid be fifty years hence upon the devoutly cherished historical belief of some patriotic and intellectual gathering if a phonograph loaded to the muzzle with the present tariff debate in the halls and corridors of Congress was sud- denly discharged in its midst. ——__ seo In a signed editorial in the Cincinnati Tribune, Mr. W. J. Lampton of this city ad- Vocates a suggestion which he made some time ago—that the design of the American flag be adopted by the Post Office Depart- ment as a permanent design for the two- cent postage stamp. Mr. Lampton’s idea is purely patriotic in its origin, and has at least the merit of attractiveness. He wants the Star Spangled Banner to find its way into every region, no matter how remote, and believes that the stamp would be strongly patriotic in its influences. “To some persons,” says he, “this expedient may seem rather unnecessary, but it is a fact that in many parts of the country the flag is never seen, and there are many peo- ple who would not know it if they saw it.” That condition should not longer be per- mitted to exist. The Lampton idea is worthy of consideration by the Postmaster General. The flag is unquestionabiy an esthetic success, so no objection couid be made by those who are ever fearful that some of the canons of art will be fractured. —_~e— SHOOTING STARS. Surprised. “Dear me!” exclaimed young Mrs. Tor- kins. “On the yacht in which the President | took his outing was a table with circular pieces of celluloid scattered over it!” “Well,” exclaimed her husband, “don’t you think the President has a right to en-| joy himself in his own way?” “Oh, yes, of course. But the idea of tid- dledewinks: Farmer Corntossel’s Complaint. In lookin’ at Congress This fact you'll be notin": There's too much of talkin’ An’ not enough votin’, He Thought. “And the Chinese put people in the stocks for financial delinquency!” exclaimed the flippant youth. Yes,” replied the professor. “Well, I always heard there was money in stocks.” Asta “How does Tankins manage to keep up his extravagant mode of living?” “He has credit.” “How did he get it?” “By pretending to be worried almost to death over the income tax.” The Literary Seasons.

I've hoarded my pennies, I've sacrificed fun: T've labored from dawn till the setting of sun. My family I ruthlessly leave in the lurch, For I'll spend the whole pile. Scientific re- search Is at present devouring my cash and my care, And I'm now on the track of a specimen rare. ‘Tis a wonderful creature—a treasure, I ween— Of which we all hear, but which no one has seen.” “Oh, worthy inquirer,” the citizen said, First tell me what creature your footsteps has led On so lengthy a search, for between me and you, The being you covet might be at the Zoo. “Perhaps you are right. The assistance you lend Shall not be for nothing, believe me, good friend, For thousands will hand me their money to see The thing I shall purchase, whate’er the price be. In whispers I'll speak—let your ear be in- clined— The man-seeking office is what I would find.” “The man-seeking office! How hopes which have bloomed Most fairly, to chill disappointment are doomed! Come, stranger, with me. I will show you a place, Where, perhaps, of the creature, you'll find a slight trace. ‘Tis the corridor dark, where the glyptodon grins— By some cunning professor propped up on its pins; Where the megliosaurus stands menacing mute; Where fish, fowl and reptile and four-legged brute, As hybrids, appear, modern minds to con- tus Suggestive of mosses and primeval ooze.
