6 THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1894—-TWELVE PAGES. EVENING STAR. YGTON. November 9, 1894, THE WASHIN FRIDAY cnossy 8. NOYES ssisone7 THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation cf the other W: mgton dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. tlm order to avoid delays, on count of personal absence THE STAR should not be the Editorial or Business Departments, according to tenor or purpose. It has long been an axiom that whatever may be the laws and customs of a country, the women of it decide the morals. Today the prophecy may be ventured that within a little while the women of America will have very much to do with the political situation. Of course, they have always had considerable influence, even in national af- fairs, but the influence was indirect, and, therefore, at least a little less potent than its directors would like to have had It, Rous- seau declared that the dignity of woman consisted in her being unknown to the world—her glory being “the esteem of her husband; her pleasure the happiness of her family”—but he would probably have said something else had he lived in this time and been a witness of the noble work done by women at two especially-consplcuous points last Tuesday. Figures upon which to base anything like absolute conclusions are not available in connection with the campaign in New York city, but every one who is conversant with the details of the magnificent fight there made against Tam- many knows ia a general way that much of the credit which belongs to the victors is due to the devotion of the better class of women to the cause of reform. Deprived of the privileges—the right—cf suffrage, the women of New York toiled without ceasing to encourage and even to compel the regis- tration of hus»ands and fathers and broth- ers and such other members of the voting sex as could be influenced by eloquent pleading and modest enthusiasm. Then, when election day came, these voteless apostles of municipal betterment saw to it that the men whom they had persuaded to register did their duty at the polls. Out In Colorado woman's sphere seems to have reached the limit of enlargement, for there ‘he gentler sex had all the pollt!- cal privileges that are there or elsewhere accorded the male citizen; they canvassed and caucused and made speeches and wore badges and otherwise employed themselves after a retional fashion, and, when election day came, wen early to the polling booths and cast their ballots for good government. More than fifty-five per cent of the total vote cast in Denver last Tuesday was cast by women, end the returns indicate that the women were solid and successful in their opposition to populism. If the Colo- rado experiment is a fair sample of what may be expected when women are per- mitted to share in the responsibilities of government, as they now share the burdens which government imposes upon every- body within governmental jurisdiction, then there need be no apprehension on the part of decent people as to what may follow when woman suffrage is in operation throughout the entire Union. With the old- fashioned system of public voting in vogue, women might possibly be bulldozed into following the lead of vicious men, but with @ secret ballot women could be safely be trusted to do the right thing at the right time. — +02 It was Horace*Greeley who sai west, young man, and grow up with the country!” That was many years ago, and the great west was a mysteriously attrac- tive place. Today there comes an example to suow how this sort of geography has shifted since Horace save his historical advice. Several years ago a young graduate of Columbian University, of this city, who had grown up under the shadow of the dome of the Capitol, went, rot West, but to New York, to get a start In life. He found the right conditions for both mental, financial and political growth in the busy little city of Mount Vernon. He got into @ successful law practice, and “grew up with the ccuntry.” The country has been notified that Mr. Ben. L. Fairchild (for- merly of Washington), was last Tuesday elected to Congress by eight thousand majority from the sixteenth New York district, which, in 1892, gave a democratic majority of 4,500. This speaks well for young Mr. Fairchiki, well for Washington, and well for the voters of the sixteenth New York. There are doubtless many of Washington's citizens who, knowing this successful yourg man, will receive these tidings with pleasure and will be glad to welcome the new solon to Congress a year hence. Horace Greeley knew many things, but he did not seem to know what a good field for immigration was Westchester county, right under his nose. ‘There were seventy-one men employed on the city post-office building today. Ac- cording te The Star’s more tiutn liberal esti- mute seventy-one skilful and determined workers should be able to complete the building by September 1, 1806. That such a conclusion Is absolutely impossible with that number of artisans employed must be evident to any one who knows anything about the coastruction of such edifices. The most probable date for the post-oftice house- warming Is August 17, 1990. —+ee — Any lack of severity shown by the Ohlo democratic convention in its comments was more than supplied by the voters generally in the state this week. —_ see —__ According to the representations made by Commodore Hichborn, chief of the naval bureau of construction, in his recently sub- mitted annual report, this country has neglected one of the most important of its duties with regard to its war equipment. It 1s all very well to butld navies, to de- vise great guns, and to provide the most impenetrable of armor. It is necessary, even for such a peaceful and conservative nation as this, to maintain a reserve force of fighting material that will stand it in good stead should hostilities break out. But as in the case of a chain, the strength of which depends upon Its weakest link, so the efficacy of our preparations for war must necessarily depend rot upon the strength or speed of our ships, nor the power of their guns, but upon some sub- ordinate and yet essential matter of equip- ment. This matter, as Commodore Hich- born points out, is that of docks. He shows that with the great advance in the building of metal ships, and therefore the greater necessities for docking them to keep them cleaned of sea growths, as well as to main- tain them in a high state of repair, there comes a much more urgent need for docks not only large enough to take in the largest of the fighting machines, but also numerous enough to be of constant service. His re- port is therefore of the most vital interest to those in whose care is entrusted this business of fitung the nation with its war material. Docks are to the navy what telegraph lines and wagon-trains are to an army. Without them the modern navy would be reduced far below the point of greatest efficiency in time of war. large port should have a dock capable of floating the largest men-of-war, and at each small port on both coasts there should be a smaller dock, for the gun-boats and small cruisers. There can be no real ex- cuse for not attending to this matter on grounds cf economy, for with the great in- crease of the trans-oceantc traffic and there- Every | fore the numerous additions to the fleets of large steamers, the demand for docking facilities 1s growing yearly, and the gov- ernment can well afford to furnish this at low cost to the private lines, and so aid in maintaining the necessary equipment. But this is not essential. There is need for these great works, and there is surely money to pay for it. Economy here would be fatal whenever war shall come, for the modern ship ts soon the prey of the barn- acle, and her fighting qualities are reduced with every day of delay. There is no strength in the argument that the same would be true of the English ships, sup- posing them to be the attacking force, for the British government has, with the fore- sight of ordinary prudence, established docks at several of the neighboring ports that it has secured all around the United States. Coal supplies and docking facilities must soon come to be the great naval prob- lems, for the new navy will soon be of the size that seems to be requisite, and active operations in butlding will therefore come to a comparative standstill. It is the an- nounced intention of the government to dredge deeply from the main channel cf the Potomac up the Eastern Branch to a point above the navy yard. Coincident with that long-delayed improvement should be the construction of ample docking facilities for vessels of such draught as may safely come up the river. More than once has there been pointed reference to the necessity for a modern dock for gunboats and Nght cruisers, but none of the recommendations has ever been carried into effect. The lo- cation is eminently suitabl ——__ + + —__ Perhaps Emerson had Editor Dana in mind when he said that “with consistency @ great soul has simply nothing to do.” Mr. Dana has no love for President Cleve- Jand, but he has lavished much affection upon Richard Croker, “boss” of the lately departed Tammany. Commenting upon the great upheaval, the New York Herald said that “it is now known that the President’s private advices from New York forecast the overwhelming defeat which has befallen the democracy, and he wisely declined to become a factor.” As to this the Sun says: “A shrewd calculation of one who Is al- Ways looking out for himself; or, as Mr. Tilden once described him, ‘the most selfish politician I ever knew.’ But that is some- thing entirely different from a sincere and genuine democrat.” In another column Mr. Dana says: “The political astuteness of Richard Croker in retiring from the leader- ship of Tammany Hall seems to find ample indorsement in the returns of Tuesday's election.” Just why President Cleveland should be condemned and Richard Croker lauded for Parallel acts is not quite plain ‘to folks who believe in “toting” fair.

From the Louisville Courter Journal. China, it is sald, 1s anxious to ery quits, guarantee Corea's independence and pay af indemnity to Japan. It was Lord Wolseley who said of the Chinese that they “are destined to be the coming race, overrun- ning and overmastering all others with their countless hordes.” Wolseley’s predic- tion has been verified at least to the extent that the Chinese, with the Japs in hot pursuit, are overrunning everybody who doesn’t get out of the way. Wolseley always was a great prophet. —e Only 2 Housecleaning. From the Cincinuatt Enquirer. Political revolutions come peacefully but quickly under our form of government. Yesterday’s work was in the nature of a purgation. It was more of a democratic house cleaning than a republican victory. It is not necessarily an index of what ts to toke place in 1895 or 1806. The life of the democratic party must be as long as that of the republic, and next year will find it, as usual, with harness on its back., tee An Indian Idea. From the Red Man.
