THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. THURSDAY.........September 27, 1894. CROSBY S. NOYES. se0e+---Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permaneat circulation much more tham the combined circulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. eas Departments, necording to tenor or purpose. In nominating David Bennett Hill as the democratic candidate for governor, the Sar- atoga convention selected as the party's leader in the Empire State the man who as a vote-getter is probably more expert than avy of those whose names were mentioned a3 possible nominees. Bitterly hated by a far from inconsiderable proportion of the democratic leaders, he has, nevertheless, developed ability to come out uppermost whenever the factions have so far forgottea themselves as to engage in-personal com- bat, and this remarkable faculty has given him great strength among the multitude that believes earnestly and with the fidelity of selfishness in the political system that rewards those who toll for its welfare. With the leavering few whose combined energy is devoted to the conversion of many to the doctrine of political purity, “the machine” has no standirg, but it would be idle to deny the still existing. power of “the machine” or to declare that those who will oppose it are going to bave a walkover in the forthcoming election. Aside, however, trom the mechanical power which is his, Senator Hill can doubtless depend upon the solid friendship and fmanctal support of business men in New York city, who would hardly have voted for any other democratic nominee, but who cannot forget how pluck- ily Senator Hill stocd up in the Senate and fought the populistic and odious income-tax schedule until compelled to silence and tnac- tion by a majority that knew not what it was doing. Such a man—long-experienced, fertile of resource and on terms of inti- macy with New York polities—cannot be regarded as otherwise than a strong candi- date, and one likely to secure a greater number of votes than democrats were look- ing for two or three days ago. But ft must not be imagined that the in- fluences which are arrayed against Senator Hill are weak or inert. A year ago the voters of New York state censigned Judge Maynard to his political tomb because May- aard was an instrument in the hands of David B. Hill in an undoubtedly dishonest piece of work. Is it likely that the hand that operated the instrument will be es- teemed less guilty than the instrument it- self? Then it must be borne in mind that Hill Las slways been a consistent spoils- man, and, cdnsequently, the admired of Tammany. This is not a Tammany year in New York, and it will be truly marvelous it Mr. Hill, with the aid of his many friends in the big city, secures majority enough to upset the snti-Hill vote that may be expected to roll down to Harlem Bridge. It fs not to be imagined that the Cleveland men in New York will labor with very much of zeal to bring about an in- dorsement of him who, in season and out of season, has done his utmost to embarrass the administration of their chief. The situ- ation abounds in all sorts of complications, and although at this time it is not tasy to weigh carefully the possibilities and proba- bilities of the conflict, it is certain that Hill will have to make the fight of his life in this campaign. . _>e2 —__ Superintendent Byrnes caused consterna- tion In New York city when he, yester- day, announced to the public through the press that he would no longer be governed by a regulation of the police board which prohibited policemen in citizen's dress rrom attempting to procure evidence of violations of the excise law. The only people who did not appear to be surprised at the super- tntendent’s declaration of independence were the commissioners themselves, who, when requested to give their opinion of Superintendent Byrnes’ action, declared that the order in question was merely ad- visory and was never intended to be an im- movable rule. Perhaps that is the way the Present board looks at the regulation, but the intent of those who were members of the board when the order was framed was to protect violators of the excise law from such members of the police force as might Gesire to do the duty which they had sworn to perform. Of course, any one possessed of the most ordinary sort of sense knows that law-violating saloon-keepers are not to be caught by policemen in uniform, but now that the superintendent has taken the bit in his teeth, has, as he puts it, “cut loose from the board of police commis- sioners,” there will either be closed saloons during prohibited hours or a large number ot highly-proper arrests and convictions. — e+ After the prize fight in New Orleans Mr. James J. Corbett delivered himself of the following memorable bit of rhetoric, the subject of his discourse being Mr. Fitzsim- mons: “He must meet Steve O'Donnell frst before I will notice him.” “Gentieman Jim,” as he loves to be called, has exerted himself with distinguished re- suits in the elevation of the stage, and now Presents symptums of a desire to inaugu- rate literary reform. “First before I will no- tice him™ represents the sonorous redund- ancy of style which Shakespeare occasional- ly employed with much effect, but which has gradually fallen into disuse. But the possi- ble effect om letters of his announcement is not so important as tne suggestion which it carries of Mr. Corbett’s: intentions in other directions. If he is to go on stipulat- img that Mr. Fitzsimmons shail fight some- body else before he can be honored with a meeting with the champion none of us are safe. He can go on selecting haphazard from the population of the United States, and the first thing we know we will have lost some great and good man because the champion inadvertently “sicked™ Fitz- simmons onto him. We sincerely trust that Mr. Corbett will pause and consider. —— soe Mr. Wiskinskie Donegan, who escorted Bourke Cockran to the platform at the Saratoga convention is expected to push Messrs. Abe Slupsky and Dink Botts pretiy hard in the pursuit of fame. oe The fearful fires that recently destroyed so much of timber—valuable and otherwise— evidently spared “the Tall Sycamore of the Wabas! for on Saturday evening last the Tali Sycamore, whose best-known alias ts Daniel Webster Voorhees, addressed an audience at Terre Haute in defense of the Cleveland tariff bill and of all that in it is. Many sections of that measure need no de- fense, but there ts one schecule which will always receive apologetic attention from its supporters except when the speeches are be- ing delivered in large cities; that is the in- come-tax schedule. It was to this topic that Senator Voorhees addressed himseif with much fervor. Efforts to defend the unfair levy have been based upon many varieties of reasoning, but it is not of record that any advocate of the iniquitous and inquisitorial tax endeavored to claim scriptural author- ity until Senator Voorhees said at Terre Haute that “the first income tax known to history was of a higher origin ‘than aught assigned to earth,” nor was it a feather- weight enactment such as we now propose. For the support of His own government among the children of men in the beginning | the Supreme Ruler of the universe tithed His whole peopie—taxed them one-tenth of | their entire possessions; nor did statesmen wd lawsgtvers of the school of Mosea Aaron and Joshua, and of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, denounce its principles or threaten it with criminal violation.” The Senator sought to belittle those who oppose the tax by referring te the non-de- nunciatory conduct of statesmen and law- givers of the school of Moses” et al., but he neglected to show that there cannot possibly be any paraliel between the tithing process end an income-tax that assails only those whose annual receipts exceed a certain sum. Under the tithing system—which was vn- questionably equitable—all the people con- tributed. There was no distinction made between those who through thrift and in- dustry possessed great flocks and henis and those who were hired to attend the ani- mals—every man contributed one-tenth of his belongings. The divine decree to which the Indiana Senator appealed for support Was not class legislation. All classes were treated alike. There was no special ciass tax on the earnings of brains and energy. Senator Voorhees was unfortunate, to say the least of it, in his scriptural reference. There ts a broad and deep chasm dividing Divine wisdom and that polysided something which was denominated wisdom by major- ity members of the second session of the Fifty-third Congress. + ee ——__ In the midst of an age remarkable for in- vention there has been discovered and put to practical use a device which must surely be appreciated by every navigator. For many years the sextant has been the mar- iner’s main reliance in the determination of latitude and longitude, but it has been fre- quently the case that stormy weather pre- vented the use of that valuable instrument, and when such was the case the navigator had to depend very largely upon himself for his reckoning. Now comes an inventor— Lieut. W. H. Beehler of the United States Navy—with an instrument which he terms @ solarometer; a device which, it 1s claimed, can be operated successfully in all varieties of weather and at any hour of the day or night. In addition te determining the latt- tude and longitude of the ship on which it is operated, the solarometer also shows compass errors, something that cannot now be done at sea. The invention has been thoroughly tested, and in every instance worked most satisfactorily and accurately. The general public may fail to appreciate the value of this wonderful product of an American mind, but sailors the whole world over cannot but be under obligations to this American inventor, who has done so much to make safe the navigation of any sea at all times. ——_>+>—___ Mr. Hill refers to the action of the con- vention as aN outrage. Mr. Morton's senti- ments would hardly be expressed with that degree of force. but it is probable that the sentiment does not altogether misrepresent his feelings. ———-+.___. ir.

It probably has not oceurred to Mr. Cor- bett to stipulate that Fitzsimmons shall meet the boxing kangaroo before he fights vor the championship. soe ___ It will be rather difficult for Mr. Hill to get out of his present situation without a good chunk of glory in one form or an- other. 2 __ There is no doubt that Mr. Whitney will teel relieved until the next good excuse for aominating him for office arises. ——__~+ e+ It looks as if the proper thiag for the postal authorities to do’ would be to sur- render “Surrender.” Mr. Wellman has had some remarkably frigid experiences. He should talk it over with Mr. Brice. ————_+ ++ SHOUTING STARS. Net Over by Any Means. “I guess China will keep up the fight with Japan for a long time,” sald Mr. Tocker. “Oh, yes,” replied Ticker. “Li Hung Chang hes a lot of clothes to lose yet.” A Que: ne Tell me: is this nomination Something I with joy should greet; Or, is it an invitation To a case of cold defeat? Am Icy Nature. One of the most mercenary men in Wash- ington recently gave an exhibition of cold- bloodedness which probably stands unsur- passed. An oid acquaintance had been to Europe. A mutual friend announced his home coming with a good deal of enthusi- asm. “I tell you,” he said, glad to see him.” “I guess a whole lot of people will,” re- plied the mercenary man. “Won't you?” “Why should 1? I'm not one of his cred- itors.”" “I'm sure I will be Offering an inducement. “Can you suggest any reason why I should print your poem?” said the over- bearing editor. The dismal youth looked thoughtful, and then replied: “You know I always inclose a stamp for the return of rejected manuscript.” “Well, if you print it>you get to keep the stamp.” Goiag. Slowly each of life’s vexations _ Packs its baggage and decamps. Pretty soun we will be rid of Extra width Columbian stamps. ‘The Game Old Wail. “Just think of it,” said the enthusiastic sporting man, “Fitzsimmons and Creedon actually went into the ring. and the fight wasn't declared a draw.” “Yes,” replied Mr. Hasbin Swift, with a sigh. “Pugilism ain't what it used to be.” sos No More Tinkering With the Tarif. From the Cincinnati Enquirer. The Enquirer having quoted Frank Hurd aa saying that there woula probably not be another general revision of the tariff in ten years, the Ohio State Journal says: “Such fairly orthodox democrats as President Cleveland and Chairman Wilson insist that the new tariff bill is but the entering wedge and that the fight for the full fruition of the hopes of free traders is to be resumed.” it does not strike us that either Mr. Cleve- land or Mr. Wilson has been insisting on anything of late. Since the one went to | Buazard’s Bay and the other to Europe for repose there has been a pretty general and cordial agreement among democratic lead- ers on the tariff jaw and an understanding that there shall be an end of contention. The absentees will return to find that all is harmony. Sahn ae Mer. Satolli's Position. Frow the New York Herald. A Commercial cabie dispatch from Rome, which will be found in another column, will undoubtedly set at rest the rumors which have found credence here and there to the effect that Mgr. Satolli's mission as apos- tolic ablegate in the United States had not met with the approval of Pope Leo XIII. So far from this being the case, however, his holiness 1s preparing an | encyclical which will strengthen Mer. Satolli's author- ity and place him in direct communication with the pope himself. +02 Man W is bat Littic. From the Chicago Dispatch. Senator Brice tells a Washington inter- viewer that he “was enttrely satisiied with | the indorsement he received at Colurabus.”” | That “injorsement™ seems to have been from saying in convention what nine-tenths i af the Okfo democrats are saying openly, the prevention of a handful of democrats Friday’s BargainHours ‘At The Palais Royal.
