6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON WURBAY 2222. 5 Festa July 26, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES...............-Editor. 2hE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulntion mach more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dniltes. As a News and Advertising Medium tt has no competitor. t7In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the fice, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. pa — 'Third-term rumors are very plentiful just now. The existence of many of these rumors is undoubtedly due to the fact that the summer season is the time when rumor-mongers are more than ordinarily active. But all of the rumors as to Pres!- dent Cleveland’s desire for another term of office™“lo not originate with those who may fairly be termed professional gossips; they proceed in many instances from persons who are undoubtedly familiar with Mr. Cleveland’s fdeas as to the immediate future of government in this country. It cannot be charged that Mr. Cleveland's ambition is an unreasonable one. The de- sire to be President of the United States has an abiding-place in the breasts of a great many men, and having been twice elected to the Chief Magistracy it is not » «altogether remarkable that Mr. Cleveland should decire to achieve phenomenal honor such as no American hag as yet been per- mitted to call his own. It is viewed as among the probabilities that the demo- cratic party in convention assembled will renominate President Cleveland if the con- vention {s satisfied that it is his desire to once more enter the arena where represen- tatives of the various political parties quadrennially do battle with each other. Controlling absolutely the vast federal patronage, President Cleveland is assured of the active assistance of those wire-pull- ing democrats who are Office-holders by his grace, and these men exercise a powerful influence In controlling national conven- tions. What the people will do with that nomination—should it be made—is another matter, and so remote in point of time as to make any discussion of it now wholly premature. It is to be presumed, however, that public sentiment is adverse to any movement which can be suspected of favor- ing the establishment of @ dictatorship. More than fifteen years ago, when General Grant was a candidate for the third-term nomination, Samuel J. Tilden—than whom the democratic party never had a more exalted member—in a letter excusing his absence from the Washington Birthday dinner of the Democratic Association of Massachusetts, said: “Nothing could be more fit at the pres- ent time than to commemorate that day. It was the Father of his Country, ‘first in war, first In peace and first in the hearts of his countrymen,’ who set the original example against a third term in the presi- dential office. He made that memorable precedent as a guide to all his successors, and as an unwritten law of the American ple. He did so in the light of a preva- tent fear in the minds of the most ardent of the patriots who have achieved our na- tional independence, and created a system of free government, that indefinite re-eligi- bility would degenerate into a practical life-tenure. “The vast power acquired by the federal government over the elections, by its office- holders, its patronage, the money it levies and its various forms of corrupt influence, have developed this danger, wntil it darkens the whole future of our country. “In the choice between the republic and the empire, we must believe that the peo- ple will be true to their ancestry and to Mankind.” ee ‘When the District. Commissioners refused permission to the Electric Lighting Com- pany to replace four old poles on Penn- sylvania avenue with an equal number of new ones they did the right thing. It is an excellent season to keep up the fight against these really useless occupants of the streets, and there will be very general sympathy with the position assumed by the local authorities in their communi- cation to the company in which notice was given that if the old poles’ are not down within three days they will be re- moved by the District superintendent of streets. It fs just as well, of course, to go ahead slowly in the matter of putting all the wires underground, and the companies should not be forced too quickly to adopt the new and more expensive system, but time enough, and more, has now been given to the local corporations, and this 4s as good a seison as any for the Com- missioners to demonstrate that they mean business in this direction. It may be that the outrageous defiance of the plain law by one of the local street-ratlway comps- nies has sown the seeds of -recklessness and unless there is some very vigorous ‘work by the authorities there is no telling where the noxious weeds of contempt for_ the statutes may spring up and spread. ———++e—__—_ The special dispatch printed in The Star last evening from Richmond stating that @ purse Tas been raised by German-gmeri- can residents of that city for the unfoftu- nate German emigrant John Dern, who fled from Lunenburg to escape the violence of a band of outlaws, shows that the peo- ple of the near-by southern metropolis are keenly seusible of their plain duty in this matter. It will never de for a state that seeks new population and invites im- migration to allow her inhabitants to be subjected to such outrages as those that Were practiced at Lunenburg. It discour- ages, the tide of home-seekers as does no other factor. Unless John Dern ts re-cs- tablished in his home, and every loss made good, and, most of all, every indication of mob-rule stamped out, this one instance "Fill be a serious deterrent upon other would-be immigrants from locating in the Old Dominion, Prompt and hearty assist- ance In such a case Is of great value, but it should be followed by a mighty effort on the part of the authorities to wipe out this band of desperadoes and to discourage any repetition of the disturbances. ——~+e+___ It is time for the Pullman porter to ex- perience a little pang of professional Jealousy when it goes on record that masked train-robbers were conspicuous for the politeness shown. —— + e+ -—___ Louisiana is disposed to give more thought to sugar and cotton than to the coinage question, but there is no danger of Col- @eado's wavering on the topic of free silver. ——— + +e ___ Advices from Honolulu indicate that in the near future President Dole will exercise one of his privileges as Chief Magistrate of the Hawaiian Republic by granting to Mrs. L. Dominis some sort of a pardon; a pardon the terms of which will possibly Provide for her late majesty’s residence elsewhere than within Hawaiian bounds. The information is not startling, for the Hawaiian government has been urged by many of its friends in the United States to take just such a step as that which is now regarded as almost a certainty. What Will those American newspapers in which consistent effort has been made té fellow stencles of President Cleveland's to say about this Proposition? What excuse will they have for further abuse of those who are going to deal most gently with this monstrous wo- man who once told her great and good friend, President Cleveland, that she did not want the throne he offered her unless it was accompanied with permission to swing her royal snickersnee beneath the ears of those progressive people who had dared to overthrow the most corrupt mon- archy of modern times? But even if Mrs. Dominis is not pardoned at once, she has nevertheless been a very fortunate creature. Had she lived in the time of Charles I of England her days would have been summarily cut short; had those who right- eously terminated her malodorous reign been of like mind with herself, she would now be in another sphere instead of eating poi and drinking cocoanut milk in a pal- ace, languorously watching the antics of dancing-girls under the shade of the palms, listenirg to the Wagnerian music of a gourd band, or taking beneficial and flesh- reducing exercise within a fine large park with the noisy and disturbing world safely fenced out. Of course Mrs. Dominis will receive a pension; that will be only equita- ble. To pardon her and to throw her at a cold, hard, cruel and unsympathetic world —a woman past the age when she mignt earn a livelihood at a typewriter or as a telephone girl—would be unjast. The lec- ture stag2 might afford temporary rellef and perhaps a few doliars could be secured from a dime-museum manager, but, speak- ing generally, Mrs. Dominis is without oc- cupation. Stripped of her feather robe and no longer permitted the royal preroga- tive of beheading subjects indiscriminately, she fs transformed into a poor old woman; an object of pity and reasonable distrust. As a matter of fact, Mrs. Dominis is prob- ably happier where she {s, surrounded by every comfort, than she would be if at lib- erty among her old friends. Unconilned and in such society as was most conspicu- ous in the days immediately preceding the downfall of the Hawaiian. empire, Mrs. Dominis would be very likely to get mixed up with serious trouble that might not end as bloodlessly as did the recent revolt in Hawail. —_—__ + = —___ ‘The Engiish idea of speed has been so often illustrated by somewhat disconcert- ing.examples of American progress in ya- rious departments of human endeavor, that it is not evrprising to learn from a*Londen technical journa’ that it was considered a great feat for certain engineers to replace a section of a great English railway bridge with new materiuls inside of thirty days. Commenting on this declaration the “En- gineering Record,” published on this side, declares that American railway managers would have had the job done in a few hours and would heve considered the loss of a day's traffic as inadmissible. ——___+¢+___- Murderer Holmss has been charged with the doing to death of a large assortment ef persons who disappeared mysteriously, but up to this afternoon he had not been accused of killing either Dr. Cronin or MiDionaire Snell. ——__+ -____ Eighty-four men toiled upon the new city post-office building today. Such a small number could only make small impression upon the great amount of work yet to be done before even the walls will be com- plete. ——__—___+-+ + —___ The Agricultural Department proposes to get down to plain, common-sense itera- ture. This is a great suggestion for the Congressional Record. ——__+ 0 ____ Those Idaho Indians seem disposed to hasten the fulfillment of the red man’s ultimate destiny by insisting on their own extermination. 4 Perhaps Holmes murdered Taseott. If he Gid, it is not so surprising that Chicago Police have failed to discover. the where- abouts of Mr. T. Since the war with China the emperor of that country {s said to be dividing his time between the English grammar and his check-book. i The ratio of fights to the conver- sational display ia surpassed in interest only by the case of the professional pugil- ist. 0 “Svengali” is the name selected for a race-horse.

I always employ a physician, which T did in this case, but obtained no beneficial results. I pever bed-any faith im patent medicines, but having seen Ripans Tabules recommended very highly im the New York Herald, I concluded to give them a trial. After using them for a short time, I found they were just what my case demanded. I have never employed @ physician since, which means $2 @ call and $1 for medicine. One dol- lar's worth of Ripans Trbules lasts me & month, and I wok! not be without them if tt were my last dollar. ‘They are the only thing that ever gave me any permanent relief.
