——— THE EVENING STAR WASHINGTON. ‘THURSDAY..............0etober 3, 1805. CROSBY S. NOYES. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined eir- eulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it hus no competitor. t71n 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 Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose. = - Idle Machinery wa. Idle Guns. ‘There is every reason to congratulate the governm®nt on the successful launch of the armored cruiser Brooklyn yesterday at Philadelphia. At the same time the thought is unavoidable that the good times of peace are being sadly wasted in an illogical effort to build up a navy without taking ap- prcpriate steps in every direction pertain- ing to the business of self-defense. The ma: chirery at the Washington gun-foundry is slowing up, and the force is being reduced. In a short time the wheels will cease to whirl at this great plant and the shops will he closed, for the lack of work, it is de- clared. The Government meantime is pay- ing large subsidies to certain steamships fcr carrying the mails and for being sub- ject to the immediate use of the country in ccse of an international disagreement. Those vessels would be practically useless in time of war, in their present condition, and not a step has yet been taken to pro- vide them with armament for active ser- vice. The Brooklyn and other vessels of her class are to be armed, of course, and will go forth to swell the list of Uncle Sem’s great fighting machines. She will be @ splendid addition to the navy, and will be a most useful factor in case of war. But she will not suffice, nor will all the rest of the ships of the navy, if any one of the European nations wete to assume the of- fensive towards this country. The navy that will fight and win the battles of the nation has not yet been built, or is not yet armed. Meanwhile the gun shop is to be closed for lack of work: The auxiliary cruisers are to continue on their trips back and forth across the Atlantic, at great ex- pense to the government, while they will be as far from effectiveness, practically, as the man-of-war that is yet to be built. It will take almost as long to construct their guns and to place them properly as it will to duplicate the entire ships, guns and all. It is the worst of false economy to seek to save now by neglecting to spend the money necessary to continue the operations of the gun foundry while vast sums are being paid to the owners of the steamers as subsi- dies. If the armament for these cruisers Were ready today to be placed on board in short notice the subsidy would be a good in- vestment. But by the time of an inter- rational outbreak it may be that enough money will have been thus paid to con- struct entircly new vessels better adapted to the service of the United States. It is a mere matter of book-keeping. The money spent in the making of the guns at this time would not be wasted, even if the forthcoming war were several scores of years eway. It would have been paid out to American manufacturers for materials, and to American workingmen for their laber. It would remain here, in circulation while the guns themselves might be lying idle in the store-houses of the Navy. Idle machinery costs more to the country than idle guns. The former is an evidence of paralysis, and the latter are signs of peace. —_———__ += ____ A Strong Lever for Good. The echoes of the Lexow investigation in New York city are still being heard. Polit- ieal retributicn was visited a year ago upon these whose wrong-doing was exposed by that inquiry that sounded the depths of municipal corruptien, put there is still an- ether effect in store for some of those whose participation in the government cf the city is shown to be stained with scan- dal. W. S. Andrews, formerly commissioner of street cleining and excise commissioner of New York, has just been found guilty of the charge of “conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman’ by the board of officers of the New York Cormmandery, Loyal Legion. These charges grew out of the revelations by witnesses before the Lexow committee, who showed that An- drews had accepted what Pco-Bah called “insults” for official actions, and had been further guilty of the unpardonable offense of defrauding an old pensioner. It is im- Possible to estimate the effect of this ection. Men who may be obiivious to scandals that affect only their political associations are apt to be extremely sensi- tive on all subjects that touch upon their social relations or influence in any degree the attitude of the rest of mankind toward them as genlemen. There is a vast deal of power for good in this phenomenon, and it augurs well for the future comfort and well-being of dwellers in large cities that social organizations will take cognizance of the misdeeds of the politicians revealed in such inquiries as that which has torn the masks from the faces of so many of New York's “leading” politicians. —— 0 There is an admirable spirit of generosity shown in the way Corbett and Fitzsimmons devote column after column to informing each other of the exact tactics they will use in defeating each other. —_---+ ee ---___ The people wro predicted that the price of wheat would reach $1 a bushel some time ago are somewhere talking it over with the people who predicted Quay’s ignominious defeat. ——_-+ « + ___ It is but reasonable to expect that the sea serpent will be seen once or twice more off the Jersey coast before cold weather sets in permanently.

Honest politicians in Maryland no longer indulge in “glittering generalities’ when engaged in discussing the methods of the machine politicians who are trying des- Perately to maintain thelr power by the ‘use of illegal and immoral forces. Specific eccusations are in order and they are sufficient in number and in serfousness to make @ formidable indictment. Just now Governor Brown ts giving public hearing to eharges that have been filed against os ring supervisors of election in the clt; | Baltimore, In substance these allegations | Bre to the effect that these machine su- - “THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1895-TWELVE PAGES. perviscrs aided and abetted-in the removal: of watchers from the registration offices; that the office of the supervisor of elections was, prior to the removal of the watchers, administered in accord, with purely parti- san considerations; that the republican supervisor hag been absolutely ignored; that the majority of the board have emas- culated the provision of the law which di- rects the appointment of e republican: su- pervisor, and that the democratic majority in the board have appdinted men as repub- lican electiors officials who really did not represent the minority party, and against whom protests have been made by the re- publican organizations; ..that . the counsel for the reform league has been excluded from the hearing of cases before the su- pervisor, and that, generally, the majority of the board has so acted as to justify thelr removal from office. To afford the accused ample opportunity. for. defense, Governor Brown sits in judicial capacity and publicly. It is to be presumed that if the accused are found guilty they will be removed from the responsible positions they occupy and as the testimony and ar- gument are all being poured into the pub- lic ear, there will be little room for any accusation of unfairness in the conduct of the investigation. From the eyidence 80 far submitted the prosecution appears to have a good case. The activity of those who instituted the proceedings cannot be too highly commended; only by the vigor- ous personal interest of the comparative few can decency in politics have anything like a show for existence. —_~+-+__. Where Will the “Mill” Take Place? Politico-sporting prophets who insisted that Governor Culberson did not know what he was falking about when he ex- pressed himself as confident that the Texas legislature would speedily enact a law that would prevent the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight from taking place on Texan soil will have to admit now that the governor was marvelously accurate in his predictien, Partisan differences are plentiful enough in the Texas legislature, but the unanimity and legislative speed exhibited make it cer- tain that there is practically only one view as to prize-fighting. With the state of Texas no longer available, the scene of in- terest moves apparently toward Indian Ter- ritory. Mexico has been mentioned, but President Diaz has already declared him- self as to pugilistic encounters, so there is very little likelihood of the encounter com- ing off south of the Rio Grande. Mexico's ruler is a very peremptory sort of a man, ard Mexican prisons are extremely uncom- fertable, even to those persons who have scme acquaintance with rrisons in lati- tudes a little further north. The question now is, What will the authorities of the Five Civilized Tribes do? They can prevent the fight, so far as Indian Territory is con- cerned, for the military forces of the Unit- ed States may be invoked if the controlling few in Indian territory so decree. It would really be well for the Indians to pro- test against the proposed invasion of their region by the so-called Florida Athletic Club and its thousands of patrons and fol- lowers. Indian Territory Indians are anx- ious that the government should keep in- violate the treaty made with their fore- fathers; they do not want the Territory to be opened for settlement. In their endea- vor to preserve semi-independence, these Indians have the support of a majority of the better-thinking people of the country. Consent to accommodate the prize-fighters will undoubtedly alienate much of the gcod-will which these Indians have need of, so, merely as a matter of policy, it would be the best thing—to say nothing of its heing the right thing—to exclude the toughs who want to use a portion of In- dian Territory for brutal and selfish pur- poses. —_——_—__ 2 __ The Chattanooga Times recently made a new high-water mark for southern jour- nalistic enterprise by publishing cn the oc- casion of the dedication of the Chicka- mauga-Chettanooga National Military Park a tremendous issue, or rather a series of great issues, completely eclipsing all pre- vious efforts of new3papers, published in cities of but fifty thousand people. The Times spread its enterprise over the sev- eral.days of the affair, and produced some beautiful effects with a ilthographed cover and a fine half-tone souvenir of the park. The dedication number was exceptionally handsome, and the entire output was wor- thy of high praise. —____ 0 _____—. John J. Ingalls is developing something of a senatorial boom.
