THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST (22, /1804—TEN PAGES. THE EVENING STAR, | Discussing this matter some thme ago, the WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY......... August, 22, 1894. CROSBY S. NOYES.... --Editor. NS eee THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. ©7In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters THE STAR should not be addressed any individual connected with the fice, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Department, according to tenor er purpose. ‘Testimony before the national strike com- ‘mission now in session at Chicago is to the effect that the destruction of property which was such an exciting feature of the disturtances that made Chicago so con- spicuous during the early portion of July Was not wrought by strikers, but was the work of foreigners who were in no sense concerned in the strike. There is no doubt that such testimony has in it much of truth—the experience of those who have ‘watched such struggles is directly in line with the evidence now being submitted— but it cannot successfully be maintained that the strikers had no hand in the upset- ting ond burning of cars. Only, those per- sons who were personally acquainted with the Chicago strikers and who witnessed any considerable proportion of the miscon- @uct complained of could state whether the disturbers were railroad men or not, but every one who saw any of the exciting oc- eurrences knows that ninety-nine per cent of these engaged in endeavors to blockade railroad traffic wore the white ribbon which ‘was the trade mark of those who elected to follow the leadership of Eugene V. Debs, president of the American Railway Union. It may be that but few of the rioters were actually members of that organization, but it is certain that some of them were, or they would not have known how to manipu- late switches and hold up traffic as switches were manipulated and traffic was held up. Supposing, however, for the sake of argu- ment, that none of the members of the union did commit the crimes of which they stand accused, it is eesily susceptible of Proof that they enccuraged the degraded and brutal and even murderous element, with which Chicagy is so fearfully afflicted, to do all manner of wrong; the union never lifted a hand to stayya single riotous demon- stration. Students of the Chicago strike know that the interference which for a time almost completely isolated Chicago was the only thing that prevented the run- ning of trains; there was always a sufficient mumber of men wiiling to fill the places vacated by the strikers. President Debs himself is on record as saying that if the Uniged States had only kept its hands off the American Railway Union would have won in its fight with the railroad companies —which means, if it means anything, that the law of the land and its instruments in- cumbered the action of the strikers, who would, if they could, have prolonged in- definitely the season of criminal unrest « which for a time paralyzed business and _, threatened the peace of the entire country. As yet ‘the €vidence as to who were the guilty ones in the matter of car-burning and switch-throwing is broadly general, and it Is not likely that the commission will be able to discover any that pretends to be closely specific, but even if it does succeed in proving that the active rioters were not railway unionists, it can never possibly succeed in finding a defense for the strikers who, at the best, after providing a cause for disturbance, quietly encouraged the boisterous elements of a lawless population to do those things which every good citizen condemns. —_—_++e—___ ‘The Hill anti-anarchist bill is not being disposed of as easily as it was generally supposed it would be by those who saw how smoothly the measure went through - the Senate. There are those in’ the House who declare themselves to be unalterably opposed to the enactment of such legislation, and as there would be great difficulty in se- curing the attendance of a quorum it is not improbable that action on the measure may be deferred until next session. Opposition to'the bill so far is based upon the belief of @ few members that the bill proposes to place the Indictment, trial and sentence of anarchists or so-called anarchists in the hands of administrative officers, and on in- formation alone. To those who have watched with increasing alarm the steady inrush of undesirable immigration this measure appears to be much needed., The bill is not at all complicated in its con- struction; it provides that no alien an- erchist shall be permitted to land at any port of the United States or admitted into the United States, and it authorizes an ex- isting board of the immigration bureau to take all proper measures to prevent in- fractions of the law. Anarchists who are within the country are not affected by the bill, but the many anarchists who look upon this country as a safe and desirable asylum are very much interested, and will doubtless see to it that their privileges are not materially abridged—something they may easily accomplish for the present through the activity of friends and sympa- thizers. —_——_ +++ ____ ‘The assertion by some of the statesmen that the country will come to think better of the recent tariff legislation will remind many people of the school-boy’s whipping, which felt good after it quit hurting. ——____ +e ___ The President has the greatest sympathy in his struggle with the malaria microbe. ‘There is nothing which causes more dis- tress than the malaria microbe, unless it is the veto bacillus. —_roe__ Mrs. Lease has doubtless discovered by this time that there is more money in the lecture platform than in the party platform. —__~++____ The coming of the Knights of Pythias Promises to be aa glad and glorious an event as the departure of Congress. ———_ + +o ___ The first of September is not very far away and on that day the life-saving sta- tions which dot our shores would ordinarily be open for the transaction of business, but, acting under authority conferred by recent legislation, the superintendent of that most humane branch of the government has or- dered these stations to open at once. That peculiar mental phase known commonly as Congressional economy has for years in- sisted that the life-saving service is an inexcusable luxury during the summer months, assuming, probably, that in case there should be shipwreck on the coasts or the lakes there would always be an am- ple supply of tourists and holiday-seeking People who could be depended upon to man the boats and, with the assistance of fishermen, do all the rescuing that could be expected of the regular crew. Congress- men who knew nothing whatever about the necessities which so frequently come to pass have insisted that there was really no use for a life-saving service during a longer annual period than eight months, but testi- mony that could not be overcome showed conclusively that May and August were often quite as stormy as April and Sep- tember, so Congress added two months to the schedule. There does not seem to be any reason why provision should not have been made for keeping the life-saving serv- fce on duty all the year round. No one, mot even a Congressman, knows what the weather is going to be next June and July, and it is easily probable that during the Perlod of inactivity which the law insists bpon there might be many serious wrecks, Evening Telegraph very per- tinently remarked: “There used to be a system in towns and cities in this country of lighting the streets only on nights on which the almanacs announced there would be no moonlight. Cloudy nights might follow one another during the whole period of the moon's radiance—it was a matter of comparative indifference to the officials— the lamps were not lighted. Theoretically, the moon was shining brightly even thapgh rain was falling in torrents or an inky darkness shrouded everything. In like manner, theoretically, from the month of May to September there are no storms on the Atlantic coast.” The boundaries of this remarkable theory have been some- what limited, so that there are now but two stormless months. It is to be hoped that Congress will ere long come to the conclusion that the moon is not always visible when the almanac says it is. —__+++-—_—__ Every now and then something happens to more fully accentuate the passing of the age of chivalry and to make romancists weep as they deplore the decay of the spirit that animated the doughty knights who went clashing together in the lists for a kingly nod or a sweetheart’s smile. Those who delight to delve deeply in the pages of Scott and to feel again in imagination the thrill of spiintering lances and clattering mail have derived a certain satisfaction from the fact that among the. southrons below Mason and Dixon's line the tourna- ment still retains its place as a cherished custom. It is different, to be sure, from the stirring meetings of olden days. The Knight of Saltville now tilts on spavined charger down a sawdust track to spear a copper ring with hickory lance. Yet his guerdon is a woman's ribbon and the ap- proving smile of Miss Arabella Spatts is as soul-satisfying to the lucky champion as though she were Queen Guinevere herself. There occurred at the mouth of the Poto- mac last week, however, an event which cruelly illustrates the decadence of even the southland’s réminder of the days that are no more. A tournament was held at a Place called Raleigh’s and one of the suc- cessful knights rode a bicycle! Amid the plaudits of spectators and with heart flut- tering responsive to the handkerchief that his best girl shook with excited energy the youth sped madly on pneumatic tires and stuck his deadly lance through successive rings until he won the proud right to crown his heart's delight fourth maid of honor. Nothing further is needed to close the thrilling chapters of the world’s his- tory, whese pages dazzle with deeds of knightly daring. The cuirass has become a sweater; a peaked blue cap has replaced the helmet; the charger is now a ‘cycle and the battle axe a monkey, wrench. Let the curtain fall on chivalry forevermore. —. - +0 = ___ Residents on some of the city’s main thor- oughfares—notably Pennsylvania avenue— are preparing to greet with artistic decora- tion of their houses and places of business, trs- coming of the Knights of Pythias, who, in a few days, will possess the city. From roof to sidewalk cre the red, yellow and blue colors of the order, mingled with the red, white and blue of the Stars and Stripes, while, as central figures of hundreds of at- tractive designs, are emblems of the order. General Carnahan, who commands the Uni- form Rank, and who will have general direction of affairs here, is on record as saying that the conclave to be held next week will attract a greater number of mem- bers than has ever attended any prior gath- ering of Pythians; the local committees have done their best to contribute toward the happiness of the many thousands ex- pected, and it is now evident that the ef- forts of interested Washingtonians to please will be crowned with such success as is usual on occasions like the one for which so much preparation is now being made. Great conventions are by no means uncom- mon in Washington, but this Pythian con- clave should receive more than the average amount of attention; it appeals to those who know and appreciate the good work done by this beneficial society, and it ap- Peals also to those who admire a spectacu- lar parade. —\—_>+o__.

Without attempting to explain the cause of the great change in the black belt of ‘Alabama, in the absence of which the popu- lists would have carried the state the other day, it is not doubtful that the negro vote will slowly swing over to the democrats on such an issue whenever it is presented in any southern state where the conditions are similar to those of Alabama, South C lina, Louisiana or Mississippi. Such tion as exists between white and black a these states is not as a rule between negroes and the class represented by the former slave owners. With these the ne- groes are generally on good terms. The friction is rather with white people who own little property or none at all. These generally recruit the ypulist party, and for these the negro often has no respect & affection. As a slave he felt himself their superior, and he feels keenly the same now, even while fearing the flerce resent- ment with which they bee his gttempts to assert himself their soc! mat As long as the democratic at the south is controlled by o_ represent the pa poverty property and a employment, a8, represent iscontent of the whites who own little of Kopulist party no property, the negro will go with the fees ‘He has no use for “poor white sh,"* . 3 Just From Paris.
