THE ‘EVENING STAR, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1894—-TWELVE PAGES. 6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY.............November 19, 1894. peor S. NOYES...............-Editor, HE 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. «Im order to avoid ~count of perso THE STAR should not be any individual connected with the of- ut simply to THE STAR, or to Departments, urpose. ‘The Post's editorial endorsement of the action of the Board of Trade as to civil service reform in the District of Columbia was quite natural in view of its persistent hostility to that reform. In season and out of season that paper has been opposed not only to the civil service law and its en- forcement, but also to the principles which underlie the statute and gave to its ittsufficient provisions the vitality that has erabled it to survive the murderous assaults of the spoilsme: nytbing favora- ble to any phase of reform is not looked for from the Post—not even when there is @ project afoot to bring about great im- provement in local business conditions by an extensidn of civil service rules. The Star is accused by the Post of arguing from a low.plane, of moving in this mat- ter “solely for the reason that the exten- sion of the civil service rules will be of benefit to the merchants and tradesmen of the District, not because of any elevation or improvement ef the service that may be brought abot thereby. Its inspiration 1s not that of the high-class reformer, but of the merest of mercenuries.” ‘The Star has been a consistent advocate of civil service reform for many years; has spoken with no uncertain sound on that important topic; is proud of partici- pation in the victories won by the forces of public morality. But when an appeal had to be made to business men for business reasons the argument was surely the wy Stronger for a business basis. Says the Post: “Can the board ‘of trade of the city of Washington afford to take a position of this sort, so inconsistent with its dignity and self-respect, and parade itself hefore the country as all of a sudden enraptured with the cause of civil service reform. in the District because of the money there is in it, rather thaa because of its moral excellence? “The Post thinks not, and in the genuine virtues of civil service reform The Post is a devout believer. It does not believe, however, that the board of trade should pursue a course in this direction on the sordid lines which have been suggested, and thus subject itself to public ridicule from one end of the land to the other.” Th board of trade is, as the Post says, “a purely commercial erganization.” Why then should our neighbor say that the board should not pursue a course “on the soriid lines suggested” by The Star. The board of trade alleges that it is organized for “the consideration of, and action upon, matters concerning the commerce, pros- perity and advancement of the material interests of the National Capital.” It is @ commercial body, intent upon doing any- thing legitimate to enrich or beautify the city of Washington or to render it a more desirable field for Investment than it even now ts; it breathes a financial and there- fore to that extent a “sordid” atmosphere; it is human and, in the broadest and most complimentary sense of the word, is self- ish. Many of its members have suffered great loss through the changes wrought in this city’s population by the unreason- ing and utterly unreasonable spoils sys- tem; every one has been directly or in- directly affected. And what in the world is there to bring ridicule upon the board of trade throughout the land for looking out for the material and business interests of the city. That is precisely what a board of trade is for. > e-____ The futility, or, at least, the impotence, of the present contract labor law, which came in for such a season of attention a few weeks ago, when the case of Mr. Mor- ton’s coachman was under consideration, is again illustrated by the arrival in New York of Henry Elliott, Augustin Daly's Property man, who was deported some months ago. Elliott was brought over here by Daly from London, in recognition of his superior qualities in his line of bus- iness. Mr. Daly thereby declared that he had found on ths other side a man who could not be equaled on this side. The public has no right to decide whether or not Mr. Daly told the truth or was merely making capital out of the importation. ‘The law, with its eccentrie machinery, stepped in and prevented Mr. Daly from Betting the benefit of Elliott’s services by declaring him to be @ “laborer” within the meaning of the contract labor law, and sending him back to England. Now Elliott, acting on his right to come to America as an individual, has returned to these shores. On being questioned at the immigrant sta- tion he has declared that he ts an im- migrant, coming here as thousands of Others come, to seek his fortune. He has therefore been allowed to land, and doubt- less by this time he and Mr. Daly are in business relations quite as close as those that they enjoyed before the recent farce of deportation was enacted. It cannot be that such a law will be respected and obeyed, when it presents such an enor- mous loop-hole for avoidance. The experi- ence of Daly and Elliott will doubtless fur- nish those desiring to avoid the statute plenty of hints, and perhaps Congress may be called upon by Treasury officials at no far distant date to strengthen the law or to repeal it as now absurd and practically impossible of enforcement. ——__- ++ __ There were forty-one men empioyed on the city post-office building today; a total which, if duplicated every week-day, might possibly result In completion of the struc- ture by May 13, 1890. During the week which closed on Saturday, the average number of men employed each day was fifty-two and one-half. During the seven weeks through which The Star has watched the slow uprising of the building the average number of men employed daily has been forty-eight. ——_—___- oo _—_— Mr. Platt deprecates any disposition on the part of ambitious busy-bodies to boss the New York legislature. If it ts to be bossed, Mr. Platt naturally feels a certain pride in having it done artistically. see It is to be expected that a great many persons belonging to the dominant race will disagree with the facts made plain in Friday's Star as to the evident attempt that fs being made to force the United States to break its contract with the civil- ized tribes of Indian Territory by com- pelling the legitimate holders of that ‘last refuge of the best of the red men to dis- pose of their interests to the unreasoning white man, who never has been and never can be satisfied. For some time past—two or three years probably—there have issued from sources that are not above suspicion streams of conversational and reading mat- ter which indicate the existence within the territory of a state of affairs not to be tolerated by “any civilized country. Once in a while a word or two of dential or pro- test would be heard, but as a general thing the stories of murder and outrage and rob- bery were accepted as true. Of late, though, the output of the defamatory bureau has been extremely heavy, and while some people may have !magined that the conditions in Indian Territory were rapidly becoming worse, there has entered into the minds of others some- thing more than suspicion. Representative Bailey of Texas—whose district borders cn Indian Territory, and whose constituents are to a very considerable extent person- ally interested in the throwing open of the territory to white settlers—told a Star re- porter of his deliberate belief that “the exaggeration of the lawless and ung>v- erned condition of that territory is made for a purpose;” the idea being that by con- stant charges of unhindered lawlessness Congress will be moved to take possession of the lands and, after selling them, turn over the proceeds to the persons who now hold them. To such a program as this Mr. Bailey very pluckily objects. He said yesterday: “I have always insisted that Congress would have no more right to re- quire the Indian. tribes to sell their surplus lands than it would to require a man who owned a two-acre lawn in the middle of a city to subdivide it and sell it to persons who wanted building lots in that particular section.” In this age—selfish and material though it may be—it is almost certain that no Congress could be found to deal so unjustly with a comparatively helpiess people as these agitators would like to have Congress do with the legitimate. in- habitants of Indian Territory. —— +e Mr. Thomas C. Platt of New York is generally credited with being at the head of the republican “machine” of New York state, and he was undoubtedly the ruling spirit in the recent campaign, as far as any one human agent could be such. But the results of the battle of the ballots waged two weeks ago are such as to indicate that the democretic party would have been de- feated had there been no “management” or “organization,” or “boss,” if you please. There was a great tide of political resent- ment that found vent in an enormous ma- Jority against the bossism of Tammany. Was it particularly in favor of Mr. Platt and his own system of bossism? That is not likely. But Mr. Platt fs a boss, never- theless, and he now has the good fortune to be on the same side as the public, in- stead of being the target. This time it is Mr. Croker who is the object of popular in- dignation, but a too-confident organization such as that which Mr. Platt may yet succeed in effecting may at some future day be struck quite as hard as was the tiger. Therefore, it behooves Mr. Platt to do less talking of the sort that is now be- ing accredited to him, as to his preferences for the presidency. In one sense, Mr. Platt has a perfect right to tell people which candidates he will not support, and which others he favors. That is the inalienable privilege of the citizen and the voter. But Mr. Platt is too much identified with the macaine-of the republican party to be talk- ing in this vein now. Some one is sure to spring up ond say that this savors of boss- ism and autocratic dictation, that it has the odor of the tiger—the hateful smell that New York is just getting out of her nostrils. Then it will be in order for Mr. Platt to do less announcing, less confiden- Ual talking about what the republican party of New York will do and will not do, what it wants and does not want. ————— +++ A banquet is to be tendered to Dr. Park- hurst.

Obscurity. “When Scribbleton takes a dislike to a man he gets his revenge by putting him into a nevel.” “That doesn’t seem very serious.” “Humph; It’s as near burying him alive as he could come without getting into trou- ble with the law.” “Pinions,” said Uncle Eben, “hez allus gotter be considered f'um de stan’ p'Int ob de pusson dat ‘spresses ‘em. Yoh kain't expect de tuh’key ter hab no special ad- miration for er Thanksgiving bill ob fare.’ Doubt. “One question ieaves me ever glum,” In deep dismay quoth he; “Do I wear this chrysanthemum, Or 1s it wearing me?” Go “Blykens called Slugby a big, brutal bully yesterday afternoon.” “Really? I didn’t know Blykens had a telephone in his office. The Talker. Day after day, year after year, The echoes pulse to his tireless voice; In vain are your efforts not to hear; He doesn't give you the slightest choice. Like the sail that beats on the wreck’s gaunt mast, His larynx flaps in the endless rush Of air from his brazen lungs, a blast That ruthlessly startles some sacred hush. Like the waves that dash on the trembling sands, Endless as time in their dreary roar, His flow of language the place commands; Thoughts flee like birds from the storm- swept shore. But Justice is sure; supreme, though slow. Perhaps, "midst the outcast souls some day, A demon will fix him in voiceless woe, While another bere tauntingly has his say. —_ An Inconsistent Action. From the Washington Times. The Washington Board of Trade is sup- posed to have at heart the material inter- ests of this city. Changing administrations and the consequent shifting of government employes continuously act against these material interests. Why, then, did the board of trade refuse a resolution of sup- port to civil service reform? The large majority of business men of the District are unqualifiedly in favor of the stable citizenship and steady business life which will surely result from the merit system in government service. Arguments in favor of such a system are so manifestly un- answerable that their repetition seems like a useless statement of axioms. Then, why should these business men refuse to do, collectively, what they have already done individvally? The mainspring of a personal act is supposed to rest in the hope of future benefit. The same is true of the action of a municipality. Herein is the practical basis for Washington’s commendation of civil service reform. But leaving this sel‘ish motive out of the question, the civil service should be extended because of the enor- mous evils resulting from the spoils sys- tem in national and municipal government. This is the ethical basis. A greater ma- terial Washington and a purer political Washington—this ts the promise of civil service reform, and a promise capaole of fulfillment, provided a few short-sighted members of the board of trade do not stan in the way.
