CROSBY 8. NOYES. Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulatior. much more than three times as large as that of any other paper, morning or evening, published in Washing- ton. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. (In order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be gddressed 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. e THE STAR BY MAIL. The Star will be mailed to any address in the United States or Canada if ordered at this office in person or by letter or postal ecard. Persons leaving the city for any ptriod should remember this. Terms: 13 eents per week; 25 cents for two weeks, or © cents per month. Invariably in advance. Bubscribers changing their address from ore Post-office to another should give the lest address as well as the new one. —— An Understanding as to Garbage. The Star has ro reason for being dis- Jatisfled with the results of its investiga- sion into the methods pursued by the con- tractor who collects and disposes of the city’s garbage. The interesting news chap- ter published last Saturday gave to the Commissioners and the health officer proof Positive that garbage-scows were habitually being unloaded within the limits of the District of Columbia; information which seems to have been regarded by the au- thorities as surprising. Yesterday the garbage contractor came to the front with @ somewhat remarkable statement, aver- ing that he had not intentionally offended in the matter of garbage disposition; that he supposed it was all right to get rid of the stuff by sale whenever and wherever he could. The result is an unmistakable understanding between the health officer and the contractor. The real remedy, how ever, is not in the shipping of the city’s Tefuse to some distant down-the-river point, but proper disposal either by incineration or reduction. The Commissioners last year decided in favor of the destructive and comparatively unprofitable process — the Process which practically encourages care- lessness as to collection—but even that has net had a fair opportunity to demonstrate those things which have been claimed for it. There has been extraordinary delay in the essentis] matter of locating the garbage crematories and a3 a result but one of those institutions is in existence, whereas the complete plant should long ago have beon in active operation. It is pleasing to know that the free and unlimited distribution of garbage within the District of Columbia is new definitely prohibited, but the astound- ing fact that the garbage contractor is being paid for comparatively expensive in- cineration while the bulk of the garbage is cheaply and crudely and offensively re- moved by scow and dumped on the banks ef the Potomac affords ample opportuaity for well-founded criticism. —_+ e+ A Menace to Good Government. One of the mest difficult things any man can attempt to do is to bring about the trial of a gambler or iilicit dealer in in- toxicants in Alexandria county. Only after @ stupendous amount of energy has been expended can an arrest be made, but e ing is easy when compared with the task of trying the criminals, to say nothing of the job of convicting them. As the result of ccntinual and al- together proper clamor against the wide- open gambling dens and unlicensed liquor saloons in Jackson City, the county au- thorities were finally moved to make some sort of a raid, and for awhile it appeared likely that the more conspicuous sinners would be punished for breaking and defy- ing wholesome law. But the hope of con- viction has almost died away. Whenever the day of trial comes there invariably en- sues a postponeniint. Sometimes the ex- cvse has the appearance oi being reason- able, frequently it is manifestly a sub- terfuge. Jackson City can never be puri- fied by such means as are now being used. The demand formulated in decent minds is for sharp enforcement of the statutes duly made and provided for the control and punishment of people inchned to lawless- ness. Every hour of delay encourages the law-breakers. The adminisiration of jus- tice at Jacksoa City would be farcical and amusing were It not for the fact that it is a serious affront to a great state and @ mence to good government. —_-+e —__ Worth Studying. This is an excellent time at which to do anything that promises an increase of pa- trietic fervor. In the hurly-j -burly of po- Utical strife there is overmuch of selfish- ness and a consequent tendency toward na- tlonal carelessness; a decadence in that truly national spirit which should, no mat- ter what the sacrffice, be kept alive throughout the entire republic. The Daugh- ters of the American Revolution have, for Several months past, been urging the American people everywhere to a suitable celebration of the centenary of Washing- ton’s farewell address. The idea is one to which no exception can be taken. The document to which attention will be es- pecially directed next Saturday is one de- serving of careful study. During the one hundred years that have passed into his- tory since the first President of the United States penned his valedictory, conditions have materially changed, but the soundness of the advice he gave may not be ques- tioned nor will it be argued that the prin- ciples set forth therein are not applicable to the things of to-day. 2 —___ While the society journals have not yet interviewed Mr. J. J. Van Alen on the sub- Ject, there is little doubt that he will cast his vote for Mr. Palmer, if he can learn the modus operandi before November. ——++e—____ It rained today, but the same old “only (me hundred and twenty-five men” were al- leged by the authorities to be at work on the new city post-office building. ——_~e— Mr. Manley appears to feel that the solid northeast fs to be as reliable a quantity in politics as the solid south used to be. ——_+¢» —____ Maine. The result in Maine, while properly placed in the republican column, is yet of a com- posite nature. The republican party alone could not have achieved it, and both Speaker Reed and Mr. Manley confess very handsomely to the fact. Democrats who stayed at home, refusing to vote at all; democrats who voted for Mr. Clifford, the Bational democratic candidate for gover- nor, and democrats who went to the polls and voted the republican ticket, all share with the republicans in the credit of the achievement. But none the less—maybe because of its composite nature—the re- sult is a most pronounced triumph for the Fepublican cause in this campaign. Maine Yejects free silver and an emasculated na- tional authority, and declares for sound money and a vigorous national existence. What will be the effect on Mr. Sewall’s candidacy? It simply emphasizes what was already thoroughly well known. Mr. Sewall, for all his advocacy of free silver, is not a proper yokemate for Mr. Bryan. He does not properly class with the Bryan people. He 1s really the representative of all that the Bryan coalition is fighting. His nomination was a mistake—an after- math of the hysteria which had called the head of the ticket into being. But cor- recting a mistake is always a much more difficult matter than making it. Mr. Sewall is in commission, and, it would appear, must continue on the ticket at whatever cost to it. The clamor against him by the populists wiil now increase in volume and violence. But they have only Mr. Watson to offer for the place. And Mr. Watson, so far, has shown as little strength with the populists as Mr. Sewall has with the democrats. His candidacy excites no enthusiasm in populis- tic circles. The populist vote in Alabama and Arkansas exhibited a greatly weakened or a thoroughly indifferent party spirit, and in Maine yesterday it did not count in the equation at all. What will the Georgia populists do? Their opportunity comes next month. If they do no better than their brethren elsewhere have done, will it be in the mouth of Mr. Watson any longer to ridicule Mr. Sewall as a vote-getter? This Maine result pay not carry as far far South as Georgia or Texas, or affect matters in Colorado and Nevada, but it is reasonably certain to exert an influence in the middle states. Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Michigan will hear the news with lively interest, and reflect the force of it to some extent in their November declara- ticns. —_~ e +___. Ethiest There are times when the science of pro- fessicnal ethics !s far beyond the reach of the popular intellect. Just now the Royal College of Surgeons of England is much stirred up as to the election of its presi- dent. The famous Christopher Heath was president last year, and in the ordinary course of events would have been re-elected without the slightest friction. But Dr. Heath has accepted an invitation to deliver @ course of lectures in this country and was a willing party to arrangements which contemplate his financial reimbursement for expenses incurred. Hypercritical mem- bers of the college declare that Dr. Heath has degraded his office by planning to re- celve pey in return for his dissemination of valuable facts incidental to the practice of surgery. It is not likely that members of an American {nstitution would proceed to such length as do the many English sur- geons who are now engaged in condemning President Heath, but there is, even in this land of the free, altogether too much of ronsense grouped under the head of “pro- fessional ethics.” Under present condi- tiens no medical or surgical practitioner is viewed by the great body of his profes- sional brethren as in good standing if he is an avowed advertiser; the doctor— whether he be reliable expert or quack— steps outside the pale of professional recog- nition by these practitioners just as soon as he makes formal appearance in the col- umns of a newspaper or magazine. It is all right, though, for him to secure all pos- sible admission into the news columns of the dailies. He may seek a reporter or a city editor in order to make sure that his name is correctly spelled and mentioned with sufficient frequency in connection with any case in which the public may at that time happen to be particularly interested. The ethical idea boiled down amounts therefore to nothing more than the logical conclusion that advertising which is not paid for is all right, but that advertising which is properly placed at advertising rates is scandalously unethical. 2 ___ Without being as closely concerned in the presidential feeling in Maine (indicated by the recent election) as it was once thought he might be, Mr. Reed is naturally grati- fied. ——————»++e—____ It is to be expected that Candidate Wat- son will select an occasion like the present to ask to see Mr. Sewall’s favorite-son certificate. Florida and Georgia will no doubt do their best to convince Vermont and Maine that there are still two sides to the ques- tion. ———»>0e—___.

Ci —++o—____ SHOOTING STARS, Weak in His Techniqae. *Do yeu really think Fitz Corbins ts a great pugilist?” asked the man who takes a ual interest in the prize ring. “Well,” said the critic as he thought- fully thrust out his lower jaw, “he knows something about it. But his punctuation’s bad.” At the Theater. Her hat was large, but—joyous truth!— Revenge was waiting there. Before her sat a foot ball youth With a head of flaunting hair. A Psychological Cure. The small boy had been requested to do some errands, but insisted that he was feeling badly. As the family physician happened to call he felt the boy’s pulse and looked at his tongue, and said: “You had better make a good strong mustard plaster.” The boy looked depressed and left the room. “When shall I apply the plaster?” asked the mother. “Don’t apply it at all. He'll get well before that stage of the treatment is reached.” A Convincing Assurauce. “I say, my friend,” he said, in a hoarse whisper, to the hotel clerk; “will you have @ man walking up and down the hall to- night looking for the smell of gas?” “We usually have somebody on the look- out for accidents.” “Will you have some one pay particular attention to my room, number 313?” “If you desire it." “All right; have him rush in about 11 o'clock and drag me out into the fresh air and send word to the nearest newspaper office.”” “What are you going to do?” “I'm losing my grip in my community. I've depended on the popuiists, but they’re beginning to weaken in their devotion to me. I've got to do something and do ii quick. The only thing I can think of that will restore their confidence—that’ll con- vince ‘em that I’m still with ‘em heart and hand, i- to go somewhere and blow out the gas.” A Vice Presidential Dialogue. Quoth Thomas to Arthur, “I'm growing so fast, That I'm needing more space than I did in the past. I dislike to be blunt, but it has to be done; There is room on this ticket for only just one. In the future you may get a chance at the clover, But at present you'll really have to move ; over.”” Quoth Arthur to Thomas, “Wherefore this affront? As to moving, kind sir, I don’t have to, and won't. You may roar and get angry and threaten your worst; All your wrath will be idle, for I saw it first. We may yet get along in a manner most loving, But, Thomas, I warn you, you'll have to quit shoving.” i Lansburgh & Bro.

Allison of the St. Louis Chronicle writes: “Ever since I can remember I have been troubled with constipation in its severest form. So acute, in fact, at times, as to produce such dreadful headaches that notwith- standing all the outdoor work afforded me by my vocation, and the latitude it allowed me to test my pedestrian abilitles—which 1s supposed to be a successful manner of displacing constipa- tion—-I was very often compelled to forego my pursult of ‘business.’ Con- stipation with me seemed to be hered- itary. rather than due to accidental causes—therefore much harder to relieve, In my extremity, I often resorted to most drastic mreasures, but found no cure to be permanent. In 1892, while connected with the Times of El Paso, Tex., Ripans Tabules were brought to my notice and I used them with marked success. Nowadays I never suf- fer from such severe cases of constipa- tion, and the violent headaches I formerly expertenced never worry me in the least. Sometimes, though, when I allow myself to lapse, for a period, into irregular habits, I become slightly constipated, but by taking a few of the Tabules my bowels again perform thelr functions in a highly pleasing manner.”* Ripans Tabules are sold by or by ta a Dor) is went to The i mail ny, NO. 10 Spruce ‘st, New Mork, oe 13TH AND GSTS. iL Will repair your furs—HERE.
