a _———_— THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1895-SIXTEEN PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY. November 4, 1895. CROSBY S. NOYES. Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington ilies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personnal 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 purpos =— = = Gov. O’Ferrall’s Good Work. The confidence of the Virginia gambling- house proprietors and their patrons in their security under the lax administration of af- fairs in Alexandria county was rudely shat- tered by Governor O’Ferrall Saturday night. The raid that tcok place then was well plan- ned and successfully carried out. Apparent- ly not a whisper of warning had reached the gamblers who crowded the most notorious of all tke dens, and today the business is sadly damaged. Governor O'Ferrall has acted in good faith toward the Washington people, who, through the board of trade and co-operating citizens, furnished him several months ago with indisputable evidence of the law-breaking going on daily across the river, and has begun the crusade which he then promised the Washington committee. ‘True, he might have acted sooner, and there may be a disposition to think that he de- layed his blow beyond the necessities, but now that he has planned and conducted a thoroughly effective raid against the leading establishment there is cause for hope that the dens will be permanently closed, and there Is no room or disposition for captious criticism. Early in the summer Governor O’Ferrall formed the plans, secured the de- tectives, set on foot the investigations and made other important arrangements in the anti-gambling movement which is now be- ginning to close in upon the law-breakers. The irksome delay in active operations has at least enabled every feature of the gov- ernor’s plans to be perfected. This raid is, of course, merely the preliminary skirmish in a systematic and thoroughly digested campaign. The prompt and energetic prose- cution of the men captured Saturday night will be necessary to coraplete the work thus well started. Delays are dangerous and in- dictments must be found and tried at once if the governor's action is to have its full beneficial effect. As The Star has recently pointed out, the Virginia courts are capable of speedy work, and the evidences of guilt in the present case are so plain and direct that there is quite as much reason for promptness as in the case of the young negro who, only last week, was indicted, tried, convicted and sentenced to death in oneday As the cam- palgn proceeds it will doubtless be found that the Governor's preparations are not contined io accomplishing a single success- ful raid and the destruction of certain gambling implements, but cover the whole ground, and give assurance that Virginia justice will lay a heavy hand upon all Alexandria county gamblers. The Star congratulates Gov. O’Ferrall vpon his success, and the board of trade upon this promising result of the efforts of that body in the spring. The people of the District are ready at all cimes to co-oper- ate with the Virginia authorities in their sincere endeavors to preserve peace and to destroy the moral plague-spots that cor- rupt both sides of the river. There will undoubtedly be every disposition on the part of the District officials to aid the state officers if it should become necessary, and the governor will find that this latest Inove on his part will render him more popular than ever, not only among the gcod peopie of Virginia, but among their neighbors of the District. It is stated that Gov. O’Ferrall has ex- pressed the opinion that the making cf for- eign books at the race-tracks is in viola- tion of the laws of Virginia, and it is tkought that when he has obliterated the . Smaller gambling dens he may attack the foreign book-makers. ee ee =! Longer Terms for Burglars. The necessity for a longer term of im- prisonment for the crime of burglary, which has been more than once pointed out in the columns of The Star, was most forcibly il- lustrated by a case which occurred in this city a few years ago. Several houses in one neighborhood had been entered, in tolerably rapid succession, and finally a suspicious character was arrested through his bold- ness or carelessness in disposing of some of his plunder in a so-called pawn broker's es- tablishment, but really a repository for stolen goods. It turned out on the trial that the prisoner was an old offender, and that he had been guilty of more than one of the burglaries above referred to. Of course he was convicted; but the tender-hearted but misguided judge, instead of giving the dan- gerous criminal the longest term of im- prisonment provided by law, gave him the lightest sentence possible, and sent him up for the minimum term. He was taken to the Albany penitentiary, where, by a show of geod behavior and exemplary conduct as a prisoner, several months were deducted from the allotted term, and he was set free ac- cerdingly. Did the fellow reform, and thus demonstrate that the mercy of the judge and the encouraging prison rules were justified, at least in his case? Not a bit of it! He promptly found his way back to Washing- ten, and was again arrested, tried and con- victed of burglary before the short period for which he was first sentenced had ex- pired. Hasn't community a right to better protec- tion than this sort of legal procedure af- fcrds? And, if existing laws do not give it, should not a concerted movement be made to secure better legislation on that point? For want of a better agency, the board of trade, as the recognized mouth-piece of healthy Fublic sentiment, might well take the sub- dect up. ——___-+ +e —-___ Having effectually stopped a priz2-fight no doubt Texas will see its way to sup- press the lynching bees which are attain- ing such formidable popularity. —_-+ e=____ ‘Ther2 were but sixty-five men at work on the city post-office building today. > e- —__ ‘Tomorrow's Elections. ‘Tomorrow there will be elections in sey- eral states, and issues of the greatest va- riety will be presented to the people. In New York city the Tammany tiger is trying hard to break the bars of retirement, behind which the people put him a year ago, and it is possible that through an unfortunate mis- understanding of the necessity of harmony on the part of certain fa¢ions of misguided reformers the wary beast may succeed in getting loose again for a season. It seems to be probahle that the republicans will carry the state of New York and elect a re- publican legislature. In Maryland a ring management is also on trial, and the fiércest campaign in the history of the state has been fought, while the leaders on both sides are claiming the victory, with the chances rather in favor of the republicans, so far as n the scene of a flerce contest, with a free-silver man standing for demo- cratic votes or a sound-money platform. The ¢ $ appeared to favor the re- Publicans, but of late their opponents seem to have regained courage, and are now claiming the state. In New Jersey the chances are said to favor the election of a Fepublican governor. first in many years, mainly upon the issue of the corruption that has existed in the state for several adminis- trations. Massachusetts and Iowa are not expected to reverse the present state of af- fairs, and it is the general anticipation that they will elect republican governors. Ohio's campaign has proved most interesting, and the democrats, headed by Campbell, haye forced the fighting with what seems now, on the eve of the battle, more likelihood of suc- cess than the tremendous republican majori- ties of the last two years would indicate as possible. Utah will enter the list of states on the basis of the present election, and the fcrecasts from there all show a stubborn, close fight, with the result in doubt, but with the probabilities leaning slightly to- ward the democrats. Mormonism and silver have entered largely into the campaign, but as both parties declare for a 16-to-1 system of bimetallism, the fight is really local. The other elections are attracting little interest beyon@ the borders of the states. A tidal wave is among the possibilities, but shrewd political observers do not anticipate such a result. The Star will give fresh bulletins promptly from every state and large city, and will, as usual, keep its friends fully posted by means of the stereopticon and its issues. ——_+=___ Vigorous Prosecutions Are Needed. There should be no delay in instituting the proposed prosecutions against dealers in oleomargarine or butterine who fail to comply with the law regarding the marks to be placed on packages of those commod- ities. This law was enacted to protect the dealer in and consumer of genuine butter from the frauds of unscrupulous people who, taking advantage of the difference be- tween the prices, might make great profits through the credulity of their customers. It is a plain declaration, with penalties pro- vided, and there is no possible excuse for its violation. There is no offense in selling either of these imitations of or substitutes for butter, as they are recognized as whole- some articles of food and are preferred by some consumers. But they should be sold for what they are. The fraud consists in the deception that, it now appears, is freely and boldly practiced by certain local deal- ers, who shrewdly manage to throw the discredit resulting from the dissatisfaction of their customers upon the honest sellers of real butter whose trade marks and titles they adopt. 1t is no marvel that the lead- ing dealers in butter, who never touch any other product, should desire active prosecu- tion when they discover that such frauds are being conducted and the people of the city, whether they prefer butter, oleomar- garine or butterine, should aid in exposing these dishonest transactions, for they are entitled to know exactly what they get and to get it at the lowest retail price. It is unfortunste that the earlier indictments against these men did not result in trials and their incidental publicity. The mere payment of fines does not satisfy the pur- poses of the Jaw which was intended to prevent quiet infringements, and in the present cases, if positive proof of fraud are presented, the extreme penalties should be imposed after the names and methods of every guilty dealer are given the widest publicity. —___+ + ____ Whatever may he the result of the cam- paign in Maryland Senator.
