pliss EVENING STAR. WASHIN ‘THURSDAY. THE GTON. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulntion much more than three times as lnrge as that of any other paper, morning or evening, published in Washing- ton. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. Im 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. THE STAR BY MAIL. Persons leaving the city for any Period can have The Star mailed to them to any address in the United States or Canada, by ordering it at this office, in person or oy letter, or Postal card. Terms: 13 cents per wee! cents for two weeks, or 50 cents per month. Invariably in ad- vance. Subscribers changing their address from one Post-office to another should give the last address as well as the new one. As to the Vice Presidency. Most of the trouble at St. Louis seems to be over the vice-presidential nomination. There is nothing rash in the statement that whatever there is cf confusion is due to the nor-attractiveness of the office, which is now nothing more than a sop to be thrown into the most clamorous mouth. s condition has been verly ske by John J. Ingalls, who, after many ougn of poli n the solid rock of journalis makes open confession as to the misdeeds and shortcomings of those with whom he days of tne republi nator, “there were great vice- dents—Burr, Adams and Calhoun—but hy the subtle changes in our political sys- the office has steadily declined in esti- mation and importance tll it has become @ place administered to appease a sullen antagonist or propitiate a doubtful lo- cal at men have held the position, it is but it cannot contended that the pesi ion w: arded as desirable by any of the political giants who have filled it.

He might as well have been vaker of the Howse, or Chief Justice of . dover f the Di trict of Columbia, 2 historically would have been as well qualified for one as other. Is there any reason—other than that the resident at times represents a fa to that led by the President— why the vice-presidential office should not be of more than contingent importance? Is there anything that would prevent the President inviting the vice-president to sit at his council-table and have a voice in the discussions and a vo whenever a vote, necessary? The proposition is worthy of ration. antagonistic wee sle who leave cemfortable homes and of eternal welfare to attend the > convention will do so at their own Out in Oskland, Cal., resides Aaron ‘Allister, who claims to be some surt prophet and who has, as all such people have, somewhat of a following.

The passage and approval of the fortifi- cations appropriation bill gives rise once more to the hope that before many sea- Sons have passed the national capital may be placed in an adequate state of defense against possible invasion by an enemy. As the case now stands the city is notoriously defenseless. The river offers an easy ap- proach from the sea, a good channel and a short run. Today a war-ship steaming in from the Atlantic with hostile intent might anchor without molestation within such easy shelling distance as to reduce the city to submission within a half dozen honrs. The forts once counted upon for defense are worthless and the guns are powerless against a modern battleship. It is promised that the new plans, wisely kept secret, of the Board of Ordnance and Fortification include an elaborate scheme of Potomac river defenses that should an ply protect the capital from attack from the sea. Fort Washington as it stands to- day is but a picturesque bit of scenery. As it is said te be planned for the near future In the | it will be a formidable obstruction to the navigation of the river by a hostile fleet. It is admirably located and can well be transformed into a modern defense, and a warning to invaders. A series of such fertifications on the two coasts, well rranued «nd maintained in a high degree of efficiency, would be one of the best and safest investments this nation could make. The money expended would represent ten-fold of security. Being purely de- fensive and capable only of minimizing the damage done to the protected citi&s, these preparations for war ‘involve no temptation to bring on hostilities, in order that their efficiency may be tested. A great standing army, or an excessively powerful navy is, for obvious reasons, a perpetual incitement to offensive warfare. Next to the posses- sion of vast nfilitary power to injure, the utter powerlessness of an adversary to re- sist is the most effective inducement to de- clare war. Coast fortifications do not in- crease the power or disposition to strike, but remove the temptation from the ad- versary to strike the helpless, and thus in two ways make for peace. Whatever may be wisely left undone in equipping the re- public for offensive hostilities, the nation should be impregnable and unconquerable in a war of defence. In no more certain Way can peace be assured. Of all the cities in the country that de- serve consideration in the matter of de- fenses against a foe, Washingtcn should be counted among the first, for on the se- curity and preservation of the national ita! much would depend in time of war. —_~ + ____ Today there are two hundred and twenty mea employed on the iew city posi-office building.

Her Observation. Young Mrs. Torkins had Leen looking at the pictures in the convention editions so as to be able to converse with her husband on the affairs of the day. “Charley,” she said, “I have discovered the difference between a statesman and a politician.” “Thomas B. Reed made that distinction when he said that a statesman is a poli- an who is dead.”” “Did he? Well, maybe I'm wrong. But I certainly thought I kad it all worked out.” “What difference did you have in mind?” “A statesman always wears a Prince Al- bert coat, and a politician Is likely to come out in a sack coat and a silk hat, or almost anything at all.” Somewhat Similar. “There's one thing that I always enjoy about a political convention,” the sensitive man remarked. “It's a relief to see big pictures of politicians as well as of men whose principal claim to distinction is that they took somebody’s medicine.” “Well,” said the cold, hard analyst, “it all amounts to the same thing in the end. Most of those politicians get their pictures printed by taking the doses that some boss | ? fixed up for them.” His Occupation. The two men had beer indulging in an argument on fiance, and the one who had been advocating silver was energetic and voc! ‘ous in claiming to represent the best interests of the working people. “You talk a good deal about being right in touch with the le ‘ing people, said his antagenist. “Have you any trade your- self?” The query silenced him for a moment, but he recovered, and drawing himself up, impressively answered: sir; I have. A trade upon which I have depended for a living for a long time, and to which I have devoted nearly all my energies. I'm a gold beater, sir.” Mislead. ‘There was a sound of caultation in the distarce, and the Si. Louis man who was on his way home from business paused to listen. His face lit up with a smile, and taking off his hat he said “hurrah” in a manner which showed that he meant well, though he was ctt of practice. “What are you cheering about?” asked his neighbor. “Don't you hear the shouts of triumph in the distance?” “Yes. That's over the convention pro- ceedings.” “Oh! I thought mebbe the St. Louis club had won a game of ball.” And he relapsed into his old pathetic apathy. Defection. I hate ter be a quitter, But I've had enovgh o’ cares; Weth tke brass bands an’ the glitter, Weth the twaddle an’ the twitter, An’ I've no more time ter fritter Over other men’s affairs. It's many a time I've scurried, Whur the flags an’ ballots fly; I hev humped myself an’ hurried, "Cause some other man got flurried, An’ I've set up nights an ‘worried An’ I don’t see jes’ fur why. I vseter think it only right Ter mind some party’s call— But there's that stream whur tangied light Jes’ sorter mixes day an’ night, An’ whur the fish all fight ter bite— I guess I'll bolt ‘em all.
