A week ago The Star printed two sketches which embodied the ideas of the fresco artist in a broad, bold sort of a way, and in company with sketches presented the artist's state- ment that they were merely suggestions. Now come the authorities with the an- uncement that other subjects will be treated and rot the two mentioned. ‘This is disappointing, for in the panel which would Dictorially describe the driving of the last Vacitic railroad spike there would have heen opportunity for a display of realism vaiuable te the historian who might study the freseces a tho ars hence.

The result of the two Congress contests in Oregon is of profound political interest. It shows that the silver men were united, while the sound money men were divided. “Ef a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand.” Will the sound money mer in other states profit by the Oregon lesson? = The national campaign of 1880 was one full of Instruction for both the politicians and tke people. It opened promisingly for the democrats, but very unpromisingly for the republicans. The nomination of Gen. Hancock was a picturesque stroke, which seemed to promise success. A burst of gen- uine enthusiasm greetel it. The nomina- tion of Gen. Garfield, on the other hand, chilled a great many republicans. The Grant men, indeed, were deeply chagrined. Mr. Conkling, the leader of the Grant forces, left Chicago in a humor which alarmed the party managers. They had little or no hope of seeing him take the stump for the ticket, and !t was plain enough that unless the Grant men took the field Gen. Garfield could not be elected. And this was the condition of affairs for weeks after the two national tickets had been put up. The republicans were posi- tvely downhearted. The first state election that year came off in Maine. September was the month, and a greenback triumph was recorded. Mr. Plaisted, running for governor on a green- back ticket, and supported by the com- bined greenback and democratic vote, was elected governor by a good majority, and the result was heralded far and near as pointing to the overthrow of the republi- cans at the national elections in Novem- ber. The republican gloom, for a few days, deepened. It did look ominous for a repub- lican state like Maine to go back on the party in the very heat of the national can- vass. But in a week's time came a change. The business interests had got their bearings, and had fully digested the Maine returns. They saw in them a menace to public credit, and they sounded the alarm. They demanded that the republican politicians wake up. They turned to the republican party because the democratic party, al- though with a national platform fairly sat- isfactory, had participated in the Maine greenback triumph; and the fear expressed was that if Gen. Hancock was elected President greenbackism would obtain con- trol in the halls of Congress. In New York sreat pressure was brought to bear on both Gen. Grant and Mr. Conkling to induce them to go actively to work for Gen. Gar- field's election. They were urged to put aside all personal feeling of disappointment and help save the country from the im- pending disaster. They yielded to the pres- sure; they took the stump together, trav- eled over the debatable ground, and caused a great political awakening. The election of Gen. Garfield followed, and the Plaisted victory was thus cenverted into a blessing by the republicans. Can this Oregon result, most encouraging to populism, be made to serve the national ends of sound money? Will the business interests again take alarm? Will they again unite to demand the putting aside of personal clashings and disappointments in order that all men standing for sound money may train effectively by training under one banner? And, !f made, will their appeals this time prove as fruitful as in issu? The business interests will be largely represented at St. Louis, with the view of impressing the makers of the republican platform with the necessity of putting in @ stout financial plank. +3 Faulkner Resents an Insult. nting the action of the House of Rep- resentatives as to the verdict of the Ford Theater commission, Senator Faulkner has resigned his membership in the commission and will not hereafter have anything to do with the discredited aggregation of Sen- ators and Representatives which has been engaged in an effort to settle the claims of those who have suffered much because of the Ford Theater disaster. Senator Faulk- rer’s resignation is not to be wondered at; it would not be surprising if every member of the commission followed nis exam The probabilities are, though, that most of commission members will stick, for the purpose of forcing the fight to a finish at the next s n of Congress. It is not likuly that will be wasted in the rehearin; imony, nor it is probable that th rkable document with which Rep- ative Saye mulating the stroag man of Biblical histery—did so much dam- that letter was in the hands of the on while the work of investigation malice which are the principal features of the epistle. But the commission may profit- y follow out the suggestion made by The erday, to the end that those who re responsible for the insult to the com- sion and the injustice to the beneficiaries in the eleven cases that have been held up may be exposed and rebuked. ——_~+ ++ Of Course There is War in Cuba. Strange news is that from Cuba which tells us of the Spanish assault upon Cu- bitas, the non-existent capital of a republic which is not; acording to official Spanish statements. It will be remembered that some months ago Spanish troops captured a large number of papers which the Span- ish authorities gleefully assured the pub- lic were the archives of the Cuban gov- ernment. Odd, fsn’t it, that the Spaniards should declare vehemently that there is no Cuban government although they have boasted of the capture of that govern- ment’s archives and have unsuccessfully assailed the capital where the Cuban gov- ernment has established itself? Interesting in this connection is a letter from Gen. Bradley T. Johnson to the New York Jour- nal, in which the distinguished ex-Confe< erate and friend of Consul-General Fitz- hugh Lee makes it quite plain that a state of war exists in the island. Says Gen. Johnson (who writes from Havana): “Men are killed every day, women some- times, teo, and the government at Wash- ington is searching law books to find out a RY . It is like the confuderaie ral at Malvern Hill, who, after three hundred guns had been thundering for hours and shaking heaven and carth, turn- ed to his adjutant general and said in the plest way—he was deaf as a_post— Major, do you hear anything? I think I hear a’ noise.’ ” ———__+ «+. Where Are the Cuckoos? In spite of all the vigorous campaigns that have been and are being waged by Humane Societies and no-less humane In- dividuals against the destruction of Ameri- can birds the murderous work ‘continues. Now it is the cuckoo which is threatened with extinction. Time was when cuckoos were plentiful—when the present adminis- tration was enjoying the first year of its exisience the atmosphere had all it could do to carry the flutelike and mellifluous notes of cuckoos innumerable—but condi- tions have changed so that the sweet song is now rarely heard. Only a few fleeting months have passed away since the capitol resounded with cuckooistic warblings. To- day an occasional harsh, thin tone grates upon the ear and proclaims the decadence of a bird which will soon exist only in our museums. Unless something fs done to pre- serve the few aged specimens still on the wing and to encourage the rearing of young ones the cuckoo and tie dodo will soon be on the same plane. eo The German Emperor's yacht is behav- ing in a manner which indicates that he may come to this country for a race. It will be a noteworthy opportunity to give Lord Dunraven a lessen in good behavior. It must strike the fair-minded casual observer that in commenting on the fact that the Prince of Wales won the Derby there is a disposition not to give the horse anything like its share of the credit. ——__+ =. The silence of Corbett and Fitzsimmons can be explained only on the theory that they are in training for another joint debate on ethics and etiquette. 1 > +2 _____ ‘The Presider.t no sconer gots Congress off his hands than the financial heretics make arrangements to bether at the Chicago convention. 222 Two hundred and thirty-seven men were | employed today on the new city pest-oflice building. THE WEEK. The Virginia, Kentucky and North Da- kota democratic conventions adopted plat- forms declaring for the free coinage of sil- ver, and instructing delegates to Chicago to vote accordingly. In the Oregon state election the republicans elected the state ticket, but the vote for Congressmen was so close that the official count will be needed to decide the result. The Senate passed the river and harbor bill over the President’s veto by 56 to 6; the veto was defended by Senators Vilas, Hill and Bate. Mr. Quay’s motion that the Senate recede from its amendment reducing the number cf battle ships from four to two was defeated—17-33. The Senate also de- feated—I7-31-a_ motion by Mr. Lodge of Massachusetts to recede from its amendment relating to sectarian Indian schools. The House umseated two demo- crats—Mr. Lockhart, from the seventh Nerth Carolina district, and Mr. Downing, from the sixteenth Illinois district—and seated In the place of the former Mr. Mar- tin, a populist, who had been Indorsed by the republicans, and, in place of the lattér, Mr. Rinaker, a republican. Fourteen per- sons, two probably fatally, were injured by the fall of an elevator in Baltimore. Exer- cises celebrating the centenary of the ad- mission of Tennessee to the Union were held at Nashville. Two women were killed in Philadelphia by jumping from a burning building. Massia, an Apache chief, way killed in southern Arizona. Papers on various pertinent subjects were read at the national conference of charities and cor- rections, at Grand Rapids. Joseph Wind- rath, convicted of the murder of Cary B. Birch, was executed in Chicago. A severe windstorm in St. Joseph, Mo., caused many people to seek thelr cellars; the wind blew a gale, and many were almost terror stricken. Equestrian statues of Generals George G. Meade and Winfield S. Hanccck were un- veiled on the historic battlefiela of Gettys- burg. Austin Corbin was thrown from his carrlage near Newport, N. H., and received Injuries which caused his death in a few hours. Herr John Hauck, president of the John Hauck Brewing Company, died In Cin- cinnati, Ohfo. Sir Walter won the Brook- lyn handicap by a head, Clifford second and St. Maxim third. Foreign, The Hungarian festival of the millennial was opened at Buda-Pesth with a pubilc exhibition of the regalia, great crowds of people turning out to see the display. M. Viassovsky, Russian prefect of police at Moscow, narrowly escaped lynching at the hands of the infuriated people who lost friends and relatives in the terrible disas- ter. The committee of the French cham- her of deputies unanimously approved the bill making Madagascar a French colony. The French Niger expedition was routed in West Africa, many of its members be- ing killed by poisoned arrows. Hy the col- lapse of a staircase in a circus building in Antwerp, twenty persons fere injured. Mail advices from Nicarezua told how the forces of marines from the American and British warships cheeked the riots at Co- rinto. The village of Krienholz, in the Bernese Oberland, was partially destroyed by landslips and subsiding of the ground, caused by springs of water. Gen. Fitzhugh le arrived at Havana, and was given a cordial reception. The Bering Sea conven- tion was ratified in London. The deaths included Herr Rolfs, the African explorer: Ernesto Ros the distinguished Italian actor, and George Johnson, physician to Queen Victoria. In the District. An agreement was reached between the conferees on the Dill regulating the price of gas, and that measure was passed pro- viding for gas of 25-candle power to be sold to private consumers at $1.10 a thousand for five years from July 1 next, and at $1 a th and thereafter A partial agreement on the Dk let appr tion bill wa: ported to the houses and approv ing material changes In the budget.
