NOYES...............-Editor. ——— THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permancnt Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- eulation of the other Washington dailies. As 2 News and Advertising Medium it has no comgetitor. wn order to avotd delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed te y individual connected with the ice, but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Dusiness Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. =_ —— Moral Suasion Still 2 Power. Undoubtedly honest in their aggregated belief that corporal purishment would re- sult in-Iecal diminution of wife-beating and other offenses against the law com- monly termed “minor offenses,” sixteen members of the grand jury joined yester- day in recommending the establishment, in the District of Columbia, of a whipping- pest. That the recommendation will be endorsed by the ccemmunity is hardly prob- able; it savors of an age long past, and is closely related to methods upon which civilized people have been taught to look with distaste. So long as the whipping- Post was no nearer than Delaware it did not seem to be such an extraordinary in- stitution, and it was possible to discuss, with slight leanings in its favor, the Gerry whipping-post law which passed the New York state senate at tie last session of New York's legislature, but when the plan {s given local habitation there is In it @ something which is uhdoubtedly repug- nant. We imagine that the Gerry bill might be a good thing on Manhattan Island,, but we sincerely dislike even the hint that Washington -has within its borders a number of misdoers so considera- ble as to call for the infliction of a purely physical penalty. It is undoubtedly true that there are here and elsewhere many members of a class of criminals for whom mere imprisonment or imprisonment at hard labor have no terrors, and to dis- courage such as they some sort 6f reform in our penal system is undoubtedly neces- sary, but earnest workers toward the high- est possible civilization will hesitate for a long time before they will favor a return to the whipping-post. In a paper con- tributed to the North American Review last March, Mr. Gerry endeavored to meet the argument that the revival of the whip- Ping-post is degrading and barbarous by the assertion that- nothing is more calcu- lated to awaken in the criminal a sense of appreciation of the enormity of the of- fense than a direct ergument -applied to his person. That is probably true, but we’ cannot admit that the conditions are hope- lessly beyond the reach of education. Wife-beating—which was the subject most discussed by the grand jury—ts largely, if not entirely, a product of overindulgence in intoxicating liquors, and unless that cause be removed there is not likely to be any material change wrought in the effects, no matter how the law and Its officers may erdeavor to bring about reformation. Not so very long 2go wife-beating was a very common effense in England, but, in re- sponse to influences such as the civiliza- tion uf tcday uses, the number of cases knewn to the courts has steadily decreased and we have no doubt that during that fame period betterment on that same line has taken place in the United States. Con- sistent devotion to the uplifting of man- kind generally, with especial stress upon the evils incident to and springing from the unbridled corsumption of spirituous liqvors, will soon, we believe, put us upon a plane where there will be no occasion for discussing the advisability of a rever- sion to the whipping-post or any other an- tiquated form of punishment. ——__ _+e+ ——__ Dirty Politics in Maryland. The machine democratic politicians in Maryland seem to be in a desperate way, judging by their resort to the most dis- reputable Tammany methods to count in their candidates at the coming election. ‘The Balt‘more Sun—which is now engaged in an energetic defense of pure politics—de- clares that a gizantic crime is contera- plated, and says in this connection: “We have, first, the fact that in the ap- pointmet of registration officers one of the leading political organizations of the state was rot allowed to name its own representatives, but that in a large num- ber of cases registers and election officers have been selected to represent it and re- tained in place against its protests and in the face of the charge that they were uufit or unworthy. We have, in the second place, the fact that watchers of this same organization were not permitted to remain in the offices of registration during the September sitting to suard against frand. We have, in the third place, the fact that these watchers were excluded and expelled by and under the advice of the c wnsel to the board of election supervisors. have, in the fourth place, the fact’ that the unprecedented and extraordinary num- ber of 16,4) names was added to the regis- tration lists In five days, to say nothing of the large number of names stricken off. To crown all this comes the fact that reliable copies of the gegistration lists cannot be obtained by the counsel for the Reform League, The indications are that these corrupt methods will cause such a revolt of the honest voters as will bring speedy disaster to ring rule in Maryland. —__~ += General Harrison ought to get his friends together in a caucus and endeavor to bring about some agreement as to what shalt be said in his behalf to the waiting public. The differences of opinion between indl- viduals who are supposed to kuow just what the ex-President desires and the vary- ing shades of utterance by the same indi- viduals are not only provocative of heart disease among the probable candidates, but are quite perturbing to the people gener- ally. ————_+ + + ___ Many a student of humankind who has rot yet made up his mind as to whether marriage is or is not a failure will keep at Teast one eye on Texas until it has been definitely settled whether Governor Culber- son will be able to resist his wife's influ- ence in behalf of the Corbett-Fitzsimmons Prize-tight. ——_~ e+ _____ The beauty about the four lions just ar- rived at the Zoo 1s that they are not social and Kterary lions. ‘They do not smoke Ygarettes or drop their “ ————~e+__.

Local Pride sb peal Industry Thos? members of the High School fac- ulty who have supervision of the bids for eupplyIng the High School Cadets with unt- forms will deubtiess be guided to a con- siderable extent by the action of the board of school trustees yesterday evening, and will, it {3 hoped, find it easily possible to award the contract to a Washingion hous». The day in which Washington acknow! edged its inferiority to such cities as Bal- timore, Philadelphia and New York has forever departed; It is now plainly evident that except in the matter of numerical strength this community is in the forefront of the procession. It must be admitted, though, that even yet there is too much of a tendency among Washingtonians to pur- chase elsewhere all sorts of material—ed!- ble and wearable, &c.—which might be pro- the cured quite as economically within District of Columbia. This may, of course, ke done by Individuals who have no pride or ulne interest in the growth of the national capital, but there should be sett | THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1895-—SIXTEEN PAGES. ing like official encouragement of such dis- loyalty; therefore the action of the school board ts entirely proper. It is unfortu- nately true that there are precedents for unnecessary and injudicious expenditure of local funds in other cities; the printing contract for the District has gone to Phil- adelphia, much to the dissatisfaction of Pearly everybo@y except the contractocs. Perhaps a few dollars were saved, but that trifling gain 1s offset, and a little more, by the inferior workmanship and the | inferior material which are such conspic- uous features of the Philadelphia contrac- tor’s product, to say nothing of the incon- venience caused by the difficulties atten- dant upon the transaction of business by mail and by telegraph, instead of verbal understanding. It has been urged by some of those who consistently advocate that cheapness which is the poorest sort of economy that this being a federal city it is just as proper to buy anything the city needs in Boston or anywhere else as it would be to buy it here. That reasoning is absurdly fallacious. The District of Co- lumbia is unquestionably federal territory, but Its municipal expenses are met by the contributions of taxpayers, among whom the United States government is the most conspicuous because it has more property here than any other one capitalist. A Washingtonian might own half of Phila- delphia, but the Philadelphia city councils would never dream of sending to Washing- ton to have their municipal printing done; no more than would Boston under similar circumstances have its High School Cadet regiment uniformed by a Washington clothier. Last year the difference in the bids of one or two Washington firms and the Baltimore firm which was awarded the contract was almost infinitesimal; this year, even if a similar difference shall be found to exist, local pride ought to result in a decision favorable to local industry. 2 = —_ Englishmen at Their Own Game. As yachtsmen we are quite successful and there does not seem to be anything the matter with us when we enter the realm of field sports, but no one except the most enthusiastic Philadelphian—and enthusias- tic Philadelphians are scarce—expected that the visiting English cricketers would have to join the lorg procession of vanquished Britishers which now strings out all the way from London itself across to the Quaker City. Since the combined Oxford and Cambridge team of cricketerg came to this country they have played three big matches in the vicinity of Philadelphia. In two of those matches the Englishmen were so decisively defeated at their na- tional game that there cannot possibly be any question of the superiority of the American cricketers, while the one match which was captured by the trans-Atlantic experts was so close a shave as to be al- most a third American victory. This ad- ministration may have failed in some mat- ters but sports on American scil and in American waters have been gratifyingly successful, so far as Americans are con- cerned, since Secretary Oley took charge of the State Department. —__++«—___ Corbett is being credited with having in- troduced a new feature in pugilistic tactics —the “‘rib-roaster” it has been christened. But the difficulty which great inventors have had in claiming credit for their dis- coveries is historic, and there are insinua- tions that the “rib-roaster” was not invent- ed by Corbett, but by his advertising agent. ——— ee Washington has good reason to be proud of the latest addition to its places of amusement—the Lafayette Square Opera House.
