: ~ THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY, July 31, 1895. JROSBY S. NOYES..., Tne EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation much more than the combined circulation of the other Washington dailles. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Busine: Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. a Most conspicuous among the products of the so-called Indian troubles in northwest- ern Wyoming are the scouts who never scouted and Indian fighters who, in bar- room visions, have massacred countless hosts of the unfortunate red men. These frontier characters now occupy a large share of public attention in those places where they are not known, and corre- spondents who are of the “tenderfoot” va- riety are mainly responsible for the wide circulation which has been given the Maudiin views of those whose bloodiest deeds have been done as members of Iynching parties. The sanguinary stories uncorked by these Wyoming and Idaho heroes to the contrary notwithstanding, it Mmay safely be asserted that there has not during the past month been any Ifkelihood of an Indian war. The grain and the chaff being separated, there does not exist any testimony that shows hostility on the part of the Bannacks. Of rumors of wholesale slaughter by the Indians there has been no lack, but time, which always brings the truth to the surface, fails to produce even the flimsiest of support for the allega- tions which a little while ago were being so freely made, originally in frontier gin- mills. Careful investigation shows conclu- sively that no white man, woman or child has been slain by the Bannacks who are alleged to be on the war-path. But several Indians have been killed, and it is of record that they were shot down in a man- ner so cowardly that Wyoming will have something to be ashamed of for quite a while to come. Condensation of the state- ments made by white men—for no word has yet been received from the Bannacks themselves—shows conclusively that the disturbance was caused by the interfer- ence of settlers who believed the state law to be superior to the treaty made be- tween the United States and the Indians, and who, when the captured Bannacks en- deavored to escape, fired upon them with- out justification and killed nearly all of those who were, under the terms of the treaty, doing what they had a right to do, but who, according to the Wyoming game laws, were guilty merely of a misde- meanor. It may he that later developments will reveal conditions much more serious than any that are now believed to exist, but every present indication points to the prob- ability that the dwellers in the disturbed region from Market Lake to the southern boundary of the Yellowstone Parx and as far east as the Indian-hating community of Lander are playing the same old game which has been worked so successfully in times gone by. Nothing stimulates busi- ness more in some portions of the west than an imitation Indian campaign; even @ real campaign is productive of financial improvement. Wherever any considerable body of troops is in motion, large sums of money are being disbursed; for there must be supplies for the soldier and the soldier's horse, and there is demand by quartermasters for teams and teamsters. That the saloon-keepers and gambling sharks, and the population generally from Market Lake to Marysville, are looking forward to a season of prosperity 1s evi- @ent from a dispatch which arrived east last night, and in which it was said: “A very bitter feeling exists against the Indians among the whites, and it will be necessary to retain troops in the region for some time to prevent further trouble, un- less the Indians are absolutely forbidden to come into the region. The Indians, too, are very angry over the Killing of their people, and it is feared will await a favor- able opportunity to make a raid on the set- tlements, to be revenged.” ‘The most reliable reports yet received are to the effect that the number of male In- dians in Hoback Canon does not exceed seventy-five, and it is pure surmise to imagine that they have prepared them- selves in any way for offensive operations. Rumor says that the Indians have fortified themselves In an impregnable position, but it is only rumor; not one of the many valiant scouts and Indian-fghters who have been riding recklessly up and down in the newspapers has aured to holi converse |- with the little hunting party that has as- sumed dimensions sufficiently great to call for the expedition which Gen. Coppinger has organized. There would no: have been any trouble at all had there beea no clash of authority vetween the state and the weneral government. It is history that white men have been responsible for every Indian disturbance this country has ever known; history is now repeating itself. +0 Sound economy is a most desirable fea- ture either in personal or govermental af- fairs, and so far as it was a truly economi- eal motive by which the District Commis- sioners have been moved to insist that water-meters shall be used by large con- sumers of the Potomac fluid there can be no ground upon which to base complaint of the actior Yet there exists a suspicion that the step officially taken yesterday is in the wrong direction; that it is a stride toward the installation throughout the whole city of a system of water measure- ment which, if it ever comes into existence, will be most harmful to the health of the community. It is, of course, proper that ns or corporations who use vast quantities of the liquid for purely commer- cial purposes should pay a tax commen- surate with the privilege enjoyed, but there the meter-system shouid stop. It is possible that the Commissioners hope to locate the waste of water which evidently is going on; if that be the object, then water-meters should be placed in ail of the government departments; the measuring mechanism would prove beyond any possibility of doubt that waste in the department buildings is incomparably greater than in any of the manufacturing establishments, or hotels, or livery stables, in the city. _— ee —__—_ Governor Culberson of Texas has offi- cially disapproved of the prize fight which was to take place in that state. difficulty, how: seems to be in hay official disapprovals taken in carnest. ——- +02 It is alleged that silver is “holding its own.” It is also alleged that “its own” dces not amount to a great deal. 0 e With marvelous assurance, and yet with supporting statements that may carry con- viction to some minds, Dr. Paul Brisson of Paris claims to have discovered the mi- crobe of old age. This minute mischief, says the doctor, exists only in the blood of old and decrepit men, but when injected into the circulation of a young and healthy Individual it straightway produces all the signs of advanced age. If this be really so, then Dr. Brisson’s discovery is truly won- derful; less wonderful, however, than the further announcement made by the doctor that he knows of a certain serum, which, if introduced into the blood, destroys the microbe of old age and thus makes pos- sible indefinite extension of human life. It is the duty of a civilized people to en- p ington. THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 1895-TEN PAGES. courage original investigation, and {t may safely be alleged that the present genera- tion has done all that could be required of it in promoting those things which promise to ameliorate conditions that have caused and that still cause the human race more or less of serious concern. Without much hesitation society has accepted a great many theories as to microbes and bacilli and bacteria, and in a large number of cases there has been earnest endeavor on the part of the layman to readjust his standards of life so that they might accord with the newly-developed and frequently astounding theories. It is certain that the germs of deadly disease have been cap- tured and identified beyond question, and there have been discovered antagonistic germs ready to do battle in behalf of diminished human suffering and extended human existence. But when it is seriously insisted that the microbe of old age has béen caught and tagged, and that a pug- nacious organism is only awaiting an op- pertunity to chase it out of the human system, so that, barring accident, man- kind may live forever, a few thinking peo- ple will really have to be excused if they sey frankly that they don’t believe it. Perhaps, at some time in the near future, these unbelfevers may have to apologize for their present unbelief—they will doubt- less be glad to do so if there is good reason for their apology—but just now they do rot concede to Dr. Brisson the discovery of eternal life on earth. 2 ——~+ + +____ This is the time for dwellers in the towns and villages through which the Washington and Baltimore electric road will pass to in- sist upon corporate consideration for the rights of the public. It should be under- stood that this road will not be @ street railroad; it will be an electrically-operated competitor with the steam roads, and, in order that its competition may be profit- able, it will have to run large, heavy cars at steam-railroad rates of speed. The same requirements concerning speed on urban thoroughfares—non-infringement on the public highways, and protection of life at grade-crossings, shouJd be imposed upon it that are viewed as necessary in dealing with a steam railway. This electric road will undoubtedly confer great benefits upon the section traversed by it, but that ts no reason why in the public interest and for the public protection the same safeguards should not be exacted from it that are re- quired from roads operated by steam. ——__+ +___ The esteemed Post's statement that the Washington and Georgetown Railway Com- pany had absorbed the Rock Creek road, which was deni2d, not by The Star, but em- phatically and specifically by President Dunlop and other cfficials of the two cor- porations, is not, as the Post pretends to think, the same statement that was pub- lished in yesterday’s Star concerning the negotiations, plans ard prospects of the two railways. That there was something under way affecting the relations of these roads and affecting the general policy of the Washington and Georgetown railway as to extensions has been for some time the text of speculative gossip, but the public secured its first full and accurate knowl- edge of the facts in the case through the Star, where it is accustomed to find such things first. —__ + 0 ____ Ninety-two men were employed today on the city post-office building; three years, five months and fourteen days after the ‘ork of construction commenced. —__+ ¢ = —__ It is probable that the corn and wheat crop in the west will be big enough to exert a very depressing influence on the populist hallucination product. ——- - +0 —___ Indian Agent Teter should agitate some revision of the interstate commerce law which will provide against the issue of too many passes to “Lo.” —_ ++ —____ When Congress adjourns, the criminal classes appear to feel it their duty to take hold and to do their best to make things interesting. —__ = ____ The man who desired to be interviewed as a leading statesman is advised to seize the present golden opportunity and avoid the rush. -_____+ ¢ = _____ London's agitation in scientific circles of an excursion to the pole has at least the merit of being timely. — SHOOTING STARS.

The bishop has made known to the depu- ties of Maryland for the general conven- tion his consent to the setting off of a new diocese, to be called the diocese of Wash- This official consent was made necessary by the laws of the church. It remains now only to receive the approval of the general convention, which will no doubt be given very early after the as- sembling in October. As soon as that shall have been declared the bishop will call, at cre month's notice. the primary convention for the organizing of the new diocese, and en such notice he will probably make known his own decision as to the diocese which is to be his own ficld for work. It will be a very difficult and painful step for him to tak>. His way does not seem clear now; and he earne: asks the prayers of the clergy and people that he may be led to the path which shall be best for the church and the work. = +6 A Suggestion to Boston.
