THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. CROSBY 8S. NOYES. sees cee + -Mditor, 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 1t has no competitor. ected with the of- THE STAR, or to Departments, tenor oF purpose. A new dynasty is cne of the ‘probabliities that threatens to, for a while, add to the troubles which now asfict the Chinese Em- pire and which are doing so much damage to the material interests of the Celestial Kingdom. But the new dynasty may be the country’s salvation; may evolve a stat2 of affairs infinitely superior to any that has existed in “hina within the scope of mod- ern history. This pessibility is announced by The Star's special correspondent at Skanghal; an intelligent American who has resided in China for twenty years, who has traveled extensively in the interior and who is thcroughly well-informed as to gov- ernmental matters. The radical change— the revolution, in fact—will, if it comes, be due largely to the folly of the “Empress- dowager, who is now in control and who has demonstrated complete incapacity to rule or direct. It is therefore more than probable that within a little while great disturtinces will take place in and around the treaty ports; cities in which a good deal of American capital is irvested and where reside a number of Americans. It is not, therefore, extraordinary that comment should be made upon the absence of Amer- jean ships-of-war from the Chinese coast. At the time when the letter to which reference ts here made was written, that worthless old tub, the Monocacy, was the only vessel representing the dignity. and power of the United States in Chinese wa- ters. It appears to have been the regular practice for American men-of-war to loaf around the more comfortable Japanese ports, Instead ef being on duty where they would tavst likely be needed; by this time that condition may have been changed somewhat, but it should never have exist- ed; socially it was all right, but the navy is more than a social feature of an admin- istration. There has been an impresswa in this country that China could perhaps set- tle with Japan for something like $100,000,- (00, but it appears now that the Japanese demand will reach an amount equivaient to about $300,000,000 in gold and the amount will probably climb still higher un- less something is done by outside powers to bring about peace. The solution, through American intervention, advanced by ‘The Star's correspondent seems the proper one and should receive from the authorities the consideration due the utterances of one of the most conservative und best-informed American residents of China. a ee The emancipation of woman is an ac- complished fact. During the recent cam- paign in Colorado, women worked Instead of giving sentimental expression to their views, and when election day arrived they went to the polis. Last night, however, the depth and breadth and general diten- sions of the feminine uprising was shown when woman, lovely woman, marched by hundreds in the Denver ratification parade. Woman might play poker and still be en- slaved, might smoke cigarettes and join clubs end yet owe allegiance to brutal man. She might even go to elections, dis- tribute ballots and pasters, and vote, witn- cut totally breaking away from ignoble servitude; but when woma arises in her might and carries brooms and eagles and roosters and transparencies in a political procession, there is no longer any doubt as to her status. She is free! She has shat- tered the last link of thraidom’s chain; has seared into the empyrean and achieved a position on that lofty platform so long oc- cupied by man alone—that platform best descrived by the line, “What fools these mortals be.” +e Captain George McClellan Derby, assist- ant to the Engineer Commissioner of the District, today severs his connection with District affairs and moves to New Orleans to take charge of important government work in the vicinity of that city. Capt. Derby has been a faithful friend to the na- tional capital. While on duty here he has done his utmost to bring about many per- manent improvements; was active in giving better water-service to residents on the city’s outskirts, extended the sewer-system, aided in amending the faulty plumbing- regulations, saw to it that the material used in public works was of the most last- ing quality, and in numberless instances proved himself a capable and economical steward. ee There were sixty-eight men employed upen the city post-office building today. ‘The Star's original estimate—most liberal in its terms—would make it appear as though sixty eight conscientiovs toilers might com- plete the structure by October 18th, 1896. As a matter of fact, the chances are the building will not he done before August 17, 1906. It is two years, eight months and twenty four days since the work was begun. oe When Presidént Cleveland appointed the United States Strike Commission and di- rected it to make careful inquiry into the causes which led to the great industrial @isturbances that centered in Chicago in July last, it was believed by those who Were acquainted with the personnel of the commission that a great deal of valuable testimony would be brought out and that the consequent recommendations would de- serve and receive more than an ordinary amount of attention. The report of the commission is now in evidence, and from the first page to the last it is plain that the commission has exerted itself to be absolutely fair. From the day when It commenced its labors it seems to have fully appreciated the seriousness of its task and although many independent thinkers on both sides of the labor qies- tion will disagree with some of the con- clusions reached by the official investiga- tors, it is not likely that any save the most extremely radical would charge the commission with having done those things it ought not to have done or with leaving undone those things it should have done. The commission started out fully recog- nizing the hostility which, in July last, was s0 conspicuous between railroad-running capital and railroad-blocking labor. It was aware of “the determination of capital to crush the strife rather than to accept any peaceable solution through conciliation, ar- bitration, or otherwise; the certainty with which vast strikes let loose the disrepu- table to burn, plunder, and even murder; the conversion of industrious and law-abid- ing men into idlers, lawbreakers, or asso- lates of criminals; the want brought to many innocent families; the transformation of railroad yards, tracks, and stations, as well as the busy marts of trade into armed camps; and the possibilities of future strikes on more extended lines of union against even greater combinations of cap- ftal” The commission arrives at a which cannot be regarded in any sense surprising when it here is no evidence before the com- mission that the officers of the American Railway Union at any time participated in or advised intimidation, violence, or de- struction of property.” No rational ob- server of the disturbances imagines for a Moment that the leaders would permit conclusion as THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, NOVEMBE?P 18, 1894—TWELVE therrselves to be recorded on ‘the side of lawlessness. But the report asserts in un- mistakable language the guilt of many who had every reason tor believing that their acts were acceptable to Debs and Howard and the half-dozen other promi- nent officers of tne A. R. U. and of sympa- thizing organizations. Of these the report say: “The participation of strikers in riotous Proceedings is another and more serious matter. * * * The strikers’ experience and training were to be seen in the spiking and mispiacing of switches, removing rails, crippling of interlocking systems, the de- taching, side-tracking, and derailing of cars and engines, placing of coupling pins in engine mackinery, blockading tracks with cars, and attempts te detach and run in mail cars. The commission is of opinion that offenses of this character, as well as considerable threatening and intimidation ef those tuking strikers’ places, were com- mitted or instigated by strikers.” The commission does not hesitate to place the blame where it belongs, and in sum- miag up the question of responsibility says: “In the view that this railroad strike was Wrong; that such mobs are well known to be incidental to strikes, and are thereby given an excuse and incentive to gather and to commit crime, the responsibility rests largely with the American Railway Union.” Very frankly the commission states that it does not pretend to present a specific solution of the complicated problem which has worrled so many thinking people; it hes erdeavored to make plain the facts and to arouse patriotic citizens to a sense of duty. But it does’ suggest a line of search for remedial legislation which, ar- gues the coramission, may be followed with safety: It believes that there should be a permanent United States Strike Commie- sion of three members, with duties of pow- ers of recommendation and investigation as to disputes between railways and their employes similar to those vested in the Interstate Commerce Commission as to rates, ete.; that power be given to the United States courts to compel railroads to obey the decisions; that whenever rail- roads and trades unions are in conflict one with the other each side shall have the right to select a representative who will, by presidential appointment, serve as a ™member of the commission during the hearing, adjusting, and dete:mining of that particular controversy; that during the pendency of a proceeding before the com- mission rai!roads concerned may not law- fully discharge employes for any other than purely business causes nor shall unions cause or aid any strikes or boy- cotts against the railroads complained of nor shall employes leave the service of the company or companies without giving thirty days’ written.notice of their inten~ tion to do so. In short, it is the old com- pulsory arbitration idea; never up to this time popular. ———_ +02 — The statement made by Senator Peffer in an interview with a representative of The Star indicates the improbability of a re- organization of the Senate by the republi- cans. For such a reorganization the repub- licans would be dependent upon the assist- ance of Senators Stewart and Jones, who have recently gone over to the populists, if not upon the vote of Mr. Peffer himself. The announcement by Mr. Peffer that the popu- lists will have a policy based upon a prin- ciple, and not upon temporary expediency or the spofls of office—in other words, that they will avail themselves of the command- ing position in which they expect to be placed in the Senate during the Fifty-fourth Congress to influence permanently the po- litical conditions in the country—indicates that there may be no reorganization of the Senate unless it is made, as Mr. Peffer says, upon an entirely new line by a combination of the populists, not with either party, but with men of both parties holding similar views on one particular question—silver. There may be grave doubts as to whether prominent leaders among the silver men, whether now in the democratic or in the re- publican party, will be ready so soon to combine themselves with the populist, and, therefore, if Mr. Peffer's ideas are held by the other populists the organization of the Senate during the Fifty-fourth Congress will probably be as it now is, with the dif- ference that no party will alone have the power to perfect any legislative action. —_—_ + 0+ ___.
