6 THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. TUESDAY ... September 3, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES...............-Edltor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined eir- culation of the other Washington dailies, As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. t7 In order to avold delnys, 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 Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. The Keyboard of the Nation. There is nothing particularly surprising in the proposition that the Knights Templar or the country establish headquarters for that great organization at this city. The wonder is that this very appropriate action was not taken long ago. It is one part of a great movement that has been in progress with more and more force during the past few seasons, having for its ultimate point the making of Washington the headquar- ters and convention city of the country. There is no city better suited to such a role than the national capital. Its broad streets make it easy for enormous crowds to be handled without danger or discom- fort. The hotel accommodations of the city are sufficient for gatherings that might easily tax the resources of almost any other community. The population is of a character that most readily welcomes such in-comings of guests. The government is good and the streets are safe. The police regulations are such as to reduce jo a minimum the danger of accidents in times of great crowding. For conventions Wash- ington has no real rival in the land. As the place for the establishment of headquarters of national organizations it has peculiar advantages. The presence here of Con- gress and the other departments of the national government make it the center of the aitention of most citizens, and the day is not far distant when Washington will be the home of the chief officers of nearly every important association of men and women in America. Already the Knights of Labor are here to stay, and soon the Federation of Labor, it is confi- dently expected, will follow this excellent example. Now the Knights Templar think of settling down with central offices under the shadow of the deme. Presently others will fall in line, as the appropriateness of this city as the keyboard of the nation be- comes more and more manifest. Some dcy the scales will fall from the eyes of the politicians and they will see the great advantages of bringing here the national conventions for the nomination of presidential candidates. The country grows smaller geographically as it grows larger in wealth. The bounding coasts are closer together today than they were ten years ago. It is one of the most important of all the phenomena connected with the de- velopment of an enormous nation that space becomes less and less of a consideration as the resources of the country are utilized more and more fully, and now that the railroads are binding every nook and cor- ner of the United States into one close and homogeneous whole the old-time objection to national gatherings at Washington that the city is too far eastward has lost its force. And the day is near at hand when the east and the west shall be even closer in point of time and real distance—that distance that is measured by the difficulty” of conquering it—and Washington wili be even more nearly the ccnter of the coun- try. It is the duty of all citizens of the capital to labor hard and unremittingly in the direction of bringing to Washington the great national bodies, for with every convention held here and every headquar- ters established in this vicinity the ancient bugaboo of a removal of the seat of gov- ernment to some far western town will fade further and further into the dimness of impossibility. ——_+ + ___- Good Times Surely Coming. Despite the evidences on every side of the steady and substantial returning of better times, there are still to be found pessimists who affect to regard the testimony in a different light, and pretend to find in the starting up of idle factories, the increase of output in those already operated, and the general advancement of wages, merely a spasmodic effort on the part of manu- facturers to renew the world's stock of goods damaged by the wear and tear of usage and to lay aside something to meet similar necessities in the near future. Of course there is no real foundation for these theeries and opinions, even if they are honest. The whole world, and especially the United States, is progressively recover- ing from the slow fever of depression brought on by overindulgence in the dis- sipation of speculation. The crops are bet- ter and their prices have improved. Al- ready the railroads anticipating increased earnings from their movement are prepar- ing to renew and improve their roads and rolling-steck. All this means an expansion of enterprise in every direction. The ze- turn of prosperity to every section is as- sured. It is as certain as the movements of the plants and the doubters who pre- tend to believe otherwise are commercial astroromers of the Rev. Jasper stripe. ———— + -e2___ The gamblers have recaptured the para- phernalia taken by Sheriff Palmer in his recent Rosslyn raid. They broke into the court house, where the gambling outfit was Stored, to be used as evidence, and carried it away, no man hindering. Alexandria county may consider itself fortunate if the gamblers are content with this achieve- ment and refrain from capturing the court house itself and any county officials whom they may not already possess. ———_+ + ___ The Defender has broken about every- thing she could so far. Probably the record is next on her list. ——_ +e + __—_ Third-Term Imaginings. A vast amount of rumor and opinion is being written and talked as to the probabil- ity of vociferous demand for “four more years of Grover.” Every day or two there cemes to the front a more or less prom- inent democrat—frequently officially related to the administration—who intimates that there really may be nothing else to do but to give Mr. Cleveland another nomina- tion and another election. One of those officials is quoted anonymously in the New York Tribune as saying: “The contingency may arise that the solid interests of the country will ffmd it necessary to nominate and elect Mr. Cleve- land for a third term as President of the United States. If this is done it will be forced by the solid interests of the coun- try--by that I mean the moneyed interests, who realize what Mr. Cleveland has done in stemming the tide of free silver senti- ment. They know that they can trust him and aro afraid to trust others who may not be as loyal to the best interests of the country. Such a condition of affairs is not at all improbable, and if the necessity of such action is apparent it will be done, and the country cannot but sanction the choice."" That the so-called “moneyed interests” are indebted to President Cleveland for his conscientious firmness tn matters of gov- ernmental finance will be admitted by any fair-minded person who is acquainted with the facts, and there would be no objection to a broadening of the somewhat objec- tionable term, “moneyed interests,” for what President Cleveland has done and is doing is not merely for the benefit of the few; it has wrought great good throughout the entire nation and should be appreciated as thoroughly by the wage-earner as by him who once was a wage-earner, but who, through the operation of brain-directed en- ergy, has become an employer of labor. But that gratitude will impel any consider- able number of the unofficial among Amer- ican citizens to insist that Cleveland shall again be President is one of the most im- probable things that a sane mind could conceive of. Controller Eckels, who Is one of the most level-headed men in the administrative front rank, says: “There ts one thing in connection with the talk of a third term for Mr. Cleveland that has struck me forcibly. It is cer- tainly a great tribute to him that the peo- ple of the United States are discussing se- riously the advisability of tendering him a nomination for a third térm. It is a more Pronoun ‘ed tribute to his worth when one remembers that only a few months ago he was universally condemned for his course, and people vied with each other in sayiig that he hed no influence. I don’t know anything about the third term. The people are discussing it, and they Will settle te Surely, Mr. Eckels is not in earnest. Does he not know, as so many people do know, that evenly-balanced and disinter- eSted people ure not discussing seriously the advisability of a third term for Cleve- land? Does he not know that the sugges- tors of a third term are either those whose Personal interests would be subserved in augh an event—mainly Federal office-hold~ ers—or else folks of no particular 2onse- quence, who falff to realize that even in a second term there is danger to the basic principles of the republic? It is difficult to discover in the almost univergal condemna- tion of the third term idea a prondunced tribute to President Cleveland’s official worth. It is true that the topic is being freely discussed, but the proposition to ask for the unprecedented privilege of twelve years of presidential power for any cne man is so astounding as apparently to call for and to justify the use of a phenomenal quantity of language. That Mr. Cleveland has been in many respects a very exellent President cannot be denied; that he has fallen short of excellence in conspicuous instances must also be admitted; it does not appear that there is anything in his career likely to convince the people of the United States that he alone possesses the presidential requiremgnts. +o _____ Although somewhat overshadowed by the concurrent evert of Labor Day, the local celebration of the battle of Sedan by the Arion Society of this city was a complete success, sich as that organization always achieves when it proceeds to make merry in the characteristic German fashion. The Washington Arions are not only among the best citizens of the capital, but among the best Americans of the United States and while they are justly proud of the great event that caused them to jubilate yesterday, they. are first and foremost citi- zens of their adopted land. The recep- tion given to the American delega- tion of veterans of the battle of Se- dan present at the review in Germany yes- terday served to bind the two countries with a still closer tie. Washington’s cele- bration of the anniversary was a fitting echo on these shores of the sentiments of good-will uttered by Emperor William when he surveyed his guests on the Tem- plehof Field. —_____++ « —-___ ‘The success of H. N. Pillsbury, the Brook- lyn chess player, who has just ‘von what amounts to the chess championship of the world, by his victory, at Hastings, England, will be a signal for great rejoicing by the American lovers of that game. This achleve- ment will go far towards salving the wound of defeat suffered by America when Cornell was beaten in the Henley races in July. New, if the America’s Cup is kept on this side of the Atlantic through the defzat of Valkyrie III, as is confidently expected by all loyal citizens, there will be little rea- sen, indeed, for regretting the -ourse of events in the international sporting world this season. Mr. Pillsbury, who is but twenty-two years of age, has a brilliant future before him, as he seems to be des- tired to occupy the place that has been vacant since the death of Morphy, whose record has never yet been quite equaled in America. ———— Yesterday was Labor Day for tie people in general and today is labor day for one hundred and two men on the city post office.

He met her, back from Fashion's realm, And then he thunk and thunk. How did she get those sleeves mside That Saratoga trunk? Procrastination, “It's a shame, so it is,” remarked one microbe. “What's the matter?” inquired another. “They've been focling us and misleading us till I'm tired of it. They have been talking ever so Icng about getting a fur- nace for the garbage, but here we are with the frost coming; left to get sore throats and chilblains just as usual.” Human Nature, Each citizen is like the tramp Who comes with wistful eye; You give him bread and butter, and He straightway kicks for pie. Practical. “The true journalist,” sald the observ- tng man, “takes an artistic pride in mak- ing a long story short, I suppose.” “That's where ycu suppose wrong,” re- plied the New York reporter. “We get paid by space. The real art ts to make a short story long.” Uninterrupted. ’Tis now the hunter sallies forth, His cherished joys to claim; For In Septeniber he may go In quest of lawful game. Of all the creatures on this earth, No happier ore is found— Except, perchance, the trolley car, Which kills the whole year round. Sones Ss SHOES, ave.
