It is also argued that the board of school trustees has been careless in this matter of endeavoring to compel all chil- dren of school age to be subject to a reas- onzble amount of instruction, for the law says that the board shall make such ar- rangements as it shall deem best for the purpose of ascertaining whether any chil- dren of the prescribed ages are not attend- ing school and for the purpose of com- pelling attendance. It may be that the school trustees have not been extremely vehement in their requests for such remedial legislation.as The Star suggested was necessary, but those who know how diffi- THE EVENING STAR.

Befcre anything practical can be The figures printed in The Star Saturday present gratifying testimony to the desire on the part of a very large proportion of the voters to bring about wholesome changes in important features of the county government... Sheriff Veitch’s effort to secure re-election was completely upset and County Attorney Johnson barely man- aged to pull through. He is not, however, out of the woods, for his claim to election will be sharply contested by an antagonist who has all of the moral force on his side and who, in addition to that advantage, seems to have a very good case upon which to go into’ court. But no matter what comes of the contest which Mr. Douglass is making, there is promise of better things in the announced results of the election. That the old ticket had in- fluence upon which to lean and money to spend ts well known to all who are on terms of intimacy with political conditions in Alexandria county; that the reformers lagked both of these ante-election neces- saries was apparent to even the careless observer. Yet the ring candidate for sheriff was completely knocked out, and when the judicial authorities get through with their investigation the sheriff's run- nirg mate—the county attorney—may also be numbered with the defeated. For this condition those voters of Alexandria county who voted right are to be com- mended. Perhaps the new sheriff may fall short of being the conscientious offictal whom Alexandria county needs, but that he will be deliberately worse than his predecessor was is not at all probable. It has been intimated that this new sheriff will not attempt to reform the race-tracks, the principal reason for that variety of prospective inactivity being the alleged ab- sence of any law under which he could proceed to work undoubtedly desirable bet- terment. For statutory weakness the sheriff will not We held responsible, but he will surely be condemned if he follows precedent and closes his eyes to the dis- tinctly illegal forms of vice that have given to Jackson City and Rosslyn na- tional ill-fame.

Members of the board of trustees are now planning a campaign of which an effective compulsory law. is the main ob- ject, with a sufficient increase in the num- ber of pudlic schools as the logical out- come. ———_+++—___ An International monument to Hermann von Helmholtz is to be erected in Berlin.

EMBROIDERY, TRIM- — Some of the St. Louis policemen doubt- less sympathize sincerely with their breth- ren in New York, who, through the work- ings of municipal reform, have been de- prived of many privileges. No one looked for reform in St, Louis, so the guardians of tho peace in that city were surely sur- prised when they heard that Excise Com- missioner Nicholas M. Bell had written to the secretary of the Liquor Dealers’ Benevolent Association, notifying him that the chances were against renewal of liquor licenses to persons who have been giving to policemen and other public officers in- toxicating drinks, cigars and other things of greater or less value without recelving due compensation therefor. The commis- sloner, through the secretary, notifies the saloon-keepers of St. Louis—and there are many—that they must hereafter refrain frcm giving voluntarily, and must make emphatic refusal in case there should be a demand. Should a policeman insist upon what in St. Louis, and in other places not quite so far away from Washington, has grown into a custom, the commissioner desires to be officially informed as to the fact, after which, of course, there will be trouble for the policeman. The custom which Commissioner Bell is endeavoring to break up is ote altogether pernicious, for it has frequently resulted in offensive and defensive alliances between police- men and lawbreakers. —_ 0 o___ Denying the application of Eugene V. Debs for a writ of habeds corpus, the United States Supreme Court has empha- sized a doctrine that should receive the un- qualified support of every American citizen who belleves that the republic is a nation and not merely an aggregation of states. Without dissent by any member, the court declares that the government of the United States has jurisdiction over every foot of soil and over every individual within the boundaries of the United States, and that while the general government is one of limited powers it nevertheless has sover- eignty within those limitations. Touching more closely the case of Debs the court announces that the general government did not strain its powers when it invoked the civil courts to remove obstructions to interstate commerce, nor did the civil courts overstep bounds when they enjoined those who were obstructing such commerce. Furthermre, the injunction wa’ not a bar to criminal processes for acts done in viola- tion of the injunction. Debs will therefore have to serve*out his sentence; a sentence which he earned by pernicious activity that fatled to result very seriously only because good in particular. + e- —__ Mr. Harter in his suggestion of an in- crease in the tax on tobacco would have run little risk of error by going further and including cigarettes. + «= It is feared that the boomers have given the noble Kickapoo rather an unfavorable impression of pale-face civilization. ——_ + e2 —___ Virginia is suffering not so much from the crime of '73 as from the crime cf 4-1 % —__+ ++ --___ SHOOTING STARS.
