6 _————————— THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY -.October 7, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES................Edltor. THE EVENING STAR has a regulnr and permanent Family Circulation manch more than the combined cir- eulation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. In order to avoid deln: 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 Editorin! or Business Depart- ments, necording to tenor or purpose. = = Let the Ex-Presidents Alone. If it be true, as stated, that Gen. Harri- son is carning legal fees that net him an income two or three times as large as that which th2 country paid Fim while he occu- pled the White house, there would seem to have been found an answer to the much- discussed question: “What shall be done with our ex-Presidents?” The best possible thing to do, it would appear, is to let them severely alone. They are in no danger of starvation. No man who can step out of a petty compensation of $50,000 a year into a law practice of upwards of $150,000 is likely to become an object of public charity. The country has not lost his services. He ‘s doing good by stimulating the legal busi- ness. He is keeping money in circulation by acquiring and generously dispensing a large fortune. Mr. Cleveland came into contact with the readiness of the people to pay liberally for the legal services of a man who has ripened his general information ‘with four years of work at the head of the affairs of the Nation; he found that there is a splendid field for usefulness, just as Gen. Harrison finds it today, for the men who have graduated from the very finest university in the world. There is some- thing more than a mere rush after a celeb- rity that makes the ex-presidential lawyer g0 much in demand. Those who hire him do not pay enormous fees for the sake of a figure-head. The commodity that Is pur- chased so dearly is high character and in- tegrity. No man who has honorably filled the office of President is apt to resort to trickery. He has acquired a reputation that is his stock-in-trade. To maintain it he en- ists every particle of vigor and brain power. His work, therefore, is the best that he can perform. His services are of the highest order. His opinions represent research, and reflect an experience that so few men acquire that there are seldom more than two living who have passed through it. Why, then, ask: ‘What shall be done with the ex-Presidents?” Let them remain as they ure; geod, useful, prosper- ous citizens, honored in their communities and in their profession. —__+ + —____- “Get Together.” It is very unfortunate that there should be among the various reform elements of New York city active and apparently controlling minorities, which are engaged just now in trying to make bargains as to Patronage before they will consent to “get together” on the general and vital ques- tion of beating Tammany. To the tax- payers’and good citizens of the great city Tammany means~extravagance and ‘n- competence. To beat Tammany is the most important thing in the political view today. Tammary must bé’ beaten, not once, nor twice, but often enough to crush the life out of the old tiger and to warn all future politiclans that too much ma- chinery in polit'cs is dangerous. The latest word from the city is that the different factions and organizations that are com- monly opposed to Tammany in thought and principle are wrangling among thém- selves, without any definite prospect that harmony will resuit. The tssue is import- ant enough, not alone for New York, but for every other large city in the country, to cause the reformers to leave no stone unturned in the effort to save New York. But if it has come to be a mere question of a distribution of the spoils beforehand, so that there must be bickerings and ne- gotiatione and quarrels that threaten the success of the whole scheme, it might be as well for the reform column to halt for f£ season or two and let the pillage begin mew. Then, perhaps, the drained and dis- gusted citizen will see his way clear to a downright determination to do what Is right, regardless of spoils, and to keep on doing what is right, indifferent to factions. —_—_< e+ ____. Stop Cars on the Near Side. Patrons of local street-cars would un- Goubtedly appreciate actien by the Dis- trict Commissioners resulting in unanimity as to the stoppage of cable and electric cars. Some time ago the Commissioners gave a hearing to representatives of the various companies interested, but if any definite conclusion has been reached the puble is unaware of it. As things are at present the cars of the Capital Traction Company cross intersecting streets before stopping, while the cars of the Metropoli- tan and Columbia companies are stopped before they cross intersecting streets. This difference works confusion and some of these days the confusion will result in a serious accident. That all the cars should be stopped on the near side of the cross- ings ought to be a self-evident proposition, for then the danger of collision with vy. hicles approaching at right angles is al- most entirely eliminated; furthermore, stoppage on the near side makes it pog sible for the yripman or motorman to obey the law which says that street cars shall not stop outside the building line of in- tersecting streets—a law which is violated every minute by employes of the Capital Traction Company. ° ——__+ e+ _____ Popular interest in good fiction is shown by the high-class stories which are being published in The Star, with so much ac- ceptance to Its many readers. In today’s Star appears the opening of a story which is not only an entertaining piece of fiction written in an attractive style, but has the additional feature of being “A Story of a Mystery.” As The Star's readers of the gentler sex follow the development of the plot through the successive daily install- ments, their interest in a really capti- vating tale will be increased by the fact that The Star offers a prize of $500 to the woman reader who shall, prior to the publi- cation of the last installment, correctly sketch the final chapter. —— ¢ = —______ There were but forty-five men engaged on the city post office on this fine day, so well fitted for outdoor work. — +0 —___ Bannack Retribution. Frm Idaho comes what appears to be truthful statement to the effect that three white men who were supposed to be largely responsible for the arrest and killing of Bannack Indians who were hunting in ¢he Jackson's Hole country last July have them- selves been killed by Indians; shot from am- bush not far frem the place where the orig- inal conflict was. The slaughter of these white men fs to be deplored, but it cannot be regarded as an extraordinary sequel. More than three months have elapsed sizce the roughest of the rough element in the Jacksen’s Hole region—backed by. the state authorities—interfered with one of the most important of the treaty rights possessed by the Bannacks and were so rough in their interference as to arouse the just animosity of every Indian who became aware of the circumstances. The only motive which im- pelled the Jackson’s Hole people to unlaw- ful activity was purely selfish; no excuse has even yet been presented which can“pos- sibly stand for a moment fn any court of equity. Yet, practically nothing has been done toward the punishment of those who murderously oppressed the Bannack hunting party. It is true that a test case is about to be made as to the rights of the Indian to hunt in violation of the game laws of the state but In accord with a treaty negotiated by the United States; a case in which two Bannacks have been formally arrested under the act of the state legislature and will be defended by the United States through its district attorney for Nvomine: No sound of inquiry as to the murders whi were committed by the white men; no ee fort to inflict deserved punishment. Is it then at all remarkable that the Bannacks, losing confidence in either the willingness or the power of the general government to command justice, should take the matter of punishment into their own hands? Civil- ized, educated men have done this thing often, so there is really nothing strange in the fact that savages who are believers in the Mosaic doctrine of “an eye for an eye” have taken the law into their own hands and have done something that should have been done by the legal authorities of the state scme time ago. ——-+s—____ The Bishop of Washington. The ratification by the bishops of the Episcopal Church, in session at Minneapo- ls, of the proposition to divide the diocese of Mar}land, leaves no dotbt now that the scheme will be carried into effect. This is a step that should have been taken years ago, but, coming now, it must be ac- ecmpanied by progressive measures that will be to the better advantage of the church and the city. Every large institu- tien successfully established here is an im- Provement to the community. The in- auguration of a new enterprise such as the location of an episcopal residence, in connection with the future cathedral, and its accompanying schools and seminaries, 4s of sufiicient importance to enlist the sympathy and aid of all Washingtonians, regardless of denominational interests. The project to create a bishop of Washing- ton is now near accomplishment. ———<- + s_ It would not be a difficult matter for Cor- bett and Fitzsimmons to charter a boat and go out in the Gulf of Mexico and fight, or to find some place on land whose seclus‘on would insure them against interruption if they would leave the brass bands and the mob behind. The real difflculty is not in finding a place for theze tw> men to fight, but in finding a place where the audience, which affords the financial encouragement, can be accommodated. ——__~+e—_____ It would be quite In accord w!th the prin- exples advocated by Theodore Roosevelt's ad- verse critics if, after having gotten the legislature to make a law to stop prize- fighting, Texas were to go abead and wel- come the pugilists under a “liberal inter- pretation,” —_ + +____ President Cleveland has enjoyed a good long rest, but it was not a minute too long to prepare him for the activity which looms up for the executive department in the not distant future. ———_~++2______.. This country might without loss devote the same degree of erergy manifested in keeping the America’s cup and the pugilistic championship to the preservation of the seals. ++. ____. Mr. Blackburn rushes herolcally to the front with the assurance that the free we 8 ver movement th Kentucky’cannot die so long as he remsins an inhabitant of the state, There is a great deal of enthusiasm over the coming campaign.
