6 THE EVENING STAR, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1896-TWENTY-TWO PAGES, THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. SATURDAY. September 19, 18: CROSBY S. NOYES. EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulntior. much more than three times as large as that of any other paper, morning or evening, published in Washing- tom. As a News and Advertising Mcdium it has no competitor. t7Im order to avoid delnys, 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, accordis to tener oF purpsee- The Wisdom of the Father. It is especially fitting that the accident of date should inject into a strongly partisan and superheated political situation the cen- tenary of Washington's Farewell Address. That remarkable document snould at all times be deeply interesting to every true American; at such a period as this it de- serves and will doubtless be accorded more of serious and respectful consideration than has ever before been given it, although it has always been regarded as among the most valuable of contributions to official literature. Prompted by no. other motive than the public good, and fixed in his de- termination to retire to private life, George Washington wrote as one inspired; wrote for the people and conditions of today just as much as he did for the America of 17: It might reasonably be supposed that the lapse of years and the social and industrial revolutions that have taken place since the physical Washington ceased to be would have wrought so much of change in our in- stitutions as would make the valedictory of the first President antiquated and useless; as a matter of fact, the words of the Na- tion's Father are as easily. applicable today as they were a century ago. Whatever dif- ferences of opinion may exist as to certain features of the policy of the general gov- ernment with Washington at its head, it will be universally admitted that Washin; ton was American in every fibre. His Farewell Address places immortally on record sentiments with which every lover of free government will enthusiastically co- incide. Who will not recognize the present value of Washington’s advice when ne says that the unity of government fs the support of tranquility at home, of peace abroad, of prosperity, and of that liberty which every American so highly prizes? He furesaw much that has been done in efforts to over- throw the unity of government in behalf of which he made so eloquent a plea, and prayed that the people to whose cause he had devoted his life, his fortune and his sacred honor should watch with jealous anxiety foc the preservation of the na- tional union; “discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event be abandoned; and indignantly frowning upon the first dawning of everv attempt to alienate any portion of our ceuntry from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now liak together the various parts. For this,” he continued, “you have every inducement of sympathy and interest. Citizens, by birth or cholee, of a common country, that couniry has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you, in your national capacity, must always ex- alt the just pride of patriotism, more than any appellation derived from lozal discrimi- nations.” He therefore urged the people—and his tones are as clear and his arguments as con- Vincing today as they ever were—to resist wit’ care the spirit of innovation upon the principles of our government, no matter how specious the pretexts may be. There is so much of sound and pertinent advice in tne Farewell Address that, in making <xtracts therefrom, one is embar- rassed by excess of riches. It is a coherent and logical and heart-touching petition for the growth ard nourishment of the most unselfish patriotism; it should be read and reread and thoroughly understood by every being who prides himself upon lawful possession of the title of American Citizen. ———_~eroe The Remedy in Alexandria County. According to a special dispatch to The Star from Richmond, Gov. O'Ferrall has peinted out the way by which scme of the undesirable conditions in Alexandria county may be eliminated. The governor does not appear to have given any encouragement to those who want th? presecuting attor- rey to have a privately-paid assistant; he thinks It would be much better to institute ment proceedings against the coun- als whose failure to act is held re- sponsible for the evil conditions. Undoubt- ediy preceedings under the statute, in of impeachment against whether prosecuting attor- of the peace, who proves recreant, would have a whole- some effect. But the citizens of Alexandria county will probably be of the opinion that the preseeution of the lawbreakers them- selves should not be postponed until after punishment has been inflicted upon official ecnn ve in their misdeeds. Retribution shoul¢ fall simultaneously upon both sets of offender: see —- sand His Convictions, ‘The declination of Commissioner John W. Ross to even tacitly rest in accord with the Chicago platform is not surprising. Commissioaer Ross is the official repre- sentative of the conservative democrats of the national capital, and is, by his letter published exclusively im yesterday's Star, shoulder te shoulder with the conservative and thoughtful democracy of the entire country. It is perhaps possible that Mr. Ross could have stood on the financial plank of the Chicago structure had that been the only eccentricity perpetrated by the builders, but when It became apparent to him that the fundamentai principles of good government were assailed and that the presidential candidate sympathized with the assaflants and would aid in the assault, then Commissioner Rosa did what tens of thousands of other democrats have done. Of two evils Mr. Ross has chosen that which is le: —___ + «+ —___ There is a general disposition to admire the desigr of the new one-dollar bills in spite of the unwarranted liberties which bave been taken with facts In idealizing the Long bridge and the Potomac flats. ——_—___ ++ = Mr. Addicks must by this time begin to suspect that he could haye had more fun for his money by buying a steam yacht with it. ees Mr. Watson's Absence From Georgia. Candidate Watson's criticism of Candi- date Sewell is not confined to the fact that Mr. Sewall represents nearly everything against which the Bryanites are contend- ing. but includes also the fact that Mr. Sewall has no strength among his own home people. And Mr. Watson cites the re- sult of the state election In Maine, which shows, despite Mr. Sewall’s candidacy for Vice President, a falling off in the demo- cratic vote. That, in Mr. Watson's opinion, amply supports his demand that Mr. Sewall retire from the race. A state campaign is in progress in Geor- gia. The populfsts have put up a ticket of their own, and are canvassing for it. The election takes place next month. One would suppose that Mr. Watson would seize the opportunity to exert himself to the ut- most for this ticket. His own strength at home will be gauged by the ticket’s strength. That ig the test he has applied to Mr. Sewall in Maine. But instead of ex- erting himself in Georgia, he is touring in Mr. Re the south and west, and addressing himself to voters who will not go to the polls until Novemter. Of course, Mr. Watson has had in view a strengthening of the middle-of-the-road populists in states where the populists seem to hold the balance of power, and to prevent populistic fusion either with dem- ocrats or republicans on terms which will injure his vice-presidential candidacy.. He has evidently accomplished something in this direction by his tour, but it seen:s that he cannot longer neglect with safety the Georgia campaign. Suppose next month’s election shows a distinct loss in former populistic strongholds. Suppose the demo- cratic vote 1s large, showing gains all over the state. Will it lie in Mr. Watson’s mouth te cavil any longer at Mr. Sewall on the question of home support? The democrats of Georgia are working for a big vote for their state ticket ex- pressly to embarrass Mr. Watson in this way. They have never had a moment's doubt about carrying the state, but they feel that if they can pile up their majority pretty high it will cripple the Watson Loom not only in the south, but in the west, and silence the populistic claim that with Mr. Sewall out of the running Mr. Bryan would be greatly benefited. The truth is that neither Mr. Sewall nor Mr. Watson is a proper yokemate for Mr. Bryan in this race. The fight for free sil- ver has no sort of show outside of a union of the west and south. Mr. Bryan is a western man, and enough of a populist to please all the populists of that section. He should therefore have had for a yoke- mate, not an eastern man of any kind, but some representative southern democrat, avaently for free silver, and strong in the admiration and affections of the southern people. Mr. Sewall is weak because the east is bitterly opposed to free silver. Mr. Watson is weak because he is not a repre- sentative of majority sentiment in the south. —__ + oe —__ ‘Tammany Bewalls the Lack of Reform The silver democrats of New York in con- vention assembled at Buffalo were not satisficd with mere indorsement of the Chi- cago platform; they arraigned the admin- istration of Gov. Morton in severe terms and have put their condemnation on record in the state platform. People who do not reside In New York, but who have watched the gradual evolution of good government in that state, will note with interest the arraignment in question, for it charges that “state taxes have been largely in- creased and the burdens of the people aug- mented. Instead of reforms which were promised there have been flagrant corrup- tion and misrule. Instead of economy there has been prodigality. Instead of retrench- ment there has been increased expend- iture.” At this distance from New York there is no apparent basis for the accusative state- ments of the platform. It is probably true that the state taxes have increased under the Morton administration, but such an increase {s not necessarily an evil. In the “good old days’ when the bosses had ab- solute control the taxpayers did not con- tribute so much as they now do, but it should be remembered that in these times the taxpayers get approximately their money's worth, while only a little while ago the great bulk of their contributidhs went almost directly into the pockets of the practical politicians whose moanings and wailings have given to the Buffalo con- vention the appearance of a wake. It is almost amusing to have Tammany com- plain that promised reforms have not made their appearance and that flagrant corrup- tion and misrule have been stalking all over the state, chaperoned by Gov. Morton. The prodigality complained of resolves it- self upon investigation into sensible lHb- erality which accomplishes something and which is, by honest people, infinitely to be preferred to the smaller appropriations and greater dishonesty which characterized the reigh of King Tammany. Political plat- forms are frequently meaningless. The Buffalo platform ts an absurdity. —__+ ++ —___ No Submarine Telephony Yet. A Russian electrician holds out the hope that one of his recent discoveries will make possible telephonic communication between the United States and the countries of Eu- rope. The probabilities are that conversa- tion between people in Washington and other people in London is not yet, by sev- eral years. In some respects the average commercial telephone in use in this coun- try is inferior to the European article, but we are well in the lead in the matter of long-distance telephony. After vast ex- penditures of brains and other varieties of energy we have so perfected ihe upplica- tion of electricity in the transmission cf sound that it is possible to hear distinctly the tones of the average human voice over a wire fifteen hundred miles long. Were that wire beneath the ocean’s surface it would, in the present stage of clecirival de- velopment, be entirely useless. Induction may be controlled when the wires are on land, but it is not commercially possible for a wire to be insulated sufficiently to make long-distance sub-aquatic conversa- tion a success. Some day, though, an elec- trical genius may appear, clothed with power to defeat the vibratory interference that now interposes an apparently insur- mountable obstacle, but from all we can hear of M. Kildischewsky’s invention there is no reason for imagining that the genius has arrived. > ———_~+ 0 —____ Whichever way the cat jumps in the sixth Maryland district the city of Wash- ington will be in a position to smile. Both of the candidates for Congress come from the county immediately adjoining the Dis- trict of Columbia and both of them are well acquainted with the needs of this sec- tion. Outside of politics and the national policies at issue and considering only the local concerns of this city, Washington can applaud the election of either Capt. McDon- ald, the republican candidate, or Blair Lee, the democratic. It is for the capital a case of heads I win, tails you lose. ———++e—____ There Is no reason to complain of an oc- casional warm day as “unseasonable.” Even the oldest inhabitant does not intt- Mate that September ever produced ice- bergs in this latitude. —_- +0 = ____- Mr. Bryan will notice that while the vot- ing power in the District of Columbia is very much handicapped, the applause of his adherents is as loud it is anywhere else in the country. 2 ‘There are renewed evidences of a determi- ration in New York to put forth enough dif- ferent kinds of democratic ticket to match every shade of political opinion. = — oo The persistency with which Herr Most is supporting the gold standard is engen- dering the suspicion that he is in the em- ploy of the silver capitalists. —> 0 ———__— Only one hundred and thirty-one men are Feported to be at work today on the new city post-office building. —__++e____ The populists refuse to see why the free silver people should strain at a Watson and swallow a Bryan. ————_ +. ____ Mr. Sewall is sure that even Tom Watson, hal he been a resident of Maine, could have done no better.

THE WEEK. Complete returns of the Maine election show that Powers (rep.) for governor, re- ceived 83,578 votes; Frank (dem.), 34,841; Tepublican plurality, 48,732, against 12,503 in 1892. Senator Allen sent to Mr. Bryan a letter notifying him of his nomination for the presidency by the people’s party, and assuring him that an indorsement of the populist platform was not required. Chair- man Butler of the populist convention mailed to Thomas E. Watson the notifica- tion of his nomination for the vice presi- dency. Candidate Bryan continued his tour through a part of Tennessee, North Carolina and Virginia. The New York dem- ocratic convention at Buffalo nominated | John Boyd Thacher for governor, and in- dorsed the platform adopted at Chicago; William F. Sheehan resigned as national committeeman, and Frank Campbell was elected his successor. The silver democrats of Connecticut controlled the state conven- tion at Hartford, which nominated candi- dates for state officers and an electoral ticket. Capt. John McDonald of Montgom- ery county was nominated for Congress by the sixth Maryland district republ‘can con- yention, after a very exciting session. Senator Smith of New Jersey published the announcement that, being unable io recon- cile his views with the platform of the dem- ocratic national convention, he would re- sign from the chairmanship of the state committee. The battle ship Texas, while entering Newport harbor, ran upon a rock opposite the torpedo station, but was pulled off uninjured. Several officers of the steamer Laurada were arrested at Wil- mington, Del., and held as witnesaes in the case against Capt. Murphy, charged with fiiibustering. The State Department is in- vestigating the case of Charles Govin, an American newspaper correspondent, exe- cuted in Cuba. Four persons were killed and a number hurt in a wreck on the Cin- cinnati, Hamilton and Dayton, near Con- nersville. Ind. Two men and twenty-five horses perished in a fire in Milwaukee, Wis. The gunboat Bancroft sailed for Turkish waters. Burglars dynamited the safe in the store of J. W. Brown at Falls Church, Va. The deaths of the week included Lieut. C. F. Norton, U. S. N., in Chicago; Dr. Charles H. Chaikley of the faculty of the Medical University at Richmond, Va.; Fire Commissioner Austin E. Ford, in New York, who was editor of the Freeman’s Journal, and was always prominent in Irish affairs; Capt. George S. Hoyt of the army, at Helena, Mont., and Enoch Pratt of Baltimore. Foreign. By the arrest of Tynan, Bell and the other dynamiters, the Scotland Yard au- thoritles in London believe they have crushed an extensive Fenian conspiracy, one of whose objects was the assassi- nation of the czar during his trip to England. The guard of Turkish troops on duty at the sultan’s palace in Constanu- nople was forcibly disarmed and replaced by others. It was reported that a Mussul- man movement against the sultan had been started. The followers of Don Carlos threaten to make trouble for the Spanish government. The Anglo-Egyptian Nile ex- pedition, under Gen. Sir Herbert Kitchener, arrived at Barja-on-the-Nile. Forty-five passengers on a Rhine steamer were thrown into the river by the collapse of a gang plank at Buesingen, and several were drowned. Thirty persons were injured by a collision on a street railway in Valencia, Spain. Twenty-six hundred Spanish troops embarked from Barcelona for Cuba. The London St. James Gazette suggested that England, the United States and Italy form an alliance to oppose the Russian combina- tion which -eeks to prevent interference with the Lurkish despot. In the District. Because of the alleged dissatisfaction on the part of large stockholders of the Eck- ington-Belt system of street railroads over the losses in the boulevard scheme be- tween this city and Baltimore, it was an- nounced that the equipment of the former road with compressed air motors would be postponed. A definite understanding was had between the health officer and the garbage contractor over future disposal of such garbage as cannot be incinerated; the Commissioners urged the contractor to hasten the erecticn of the second crema- tory plant; a rumor was current to the effect that the contractor had been offered a large sum for the sale of his contract. For the second time the trial of the Jack- son City gambling cases was postponed. Preparations were completed for the Bryan demonstration; Mr. Bryan himself declin- ing to speak from the steps of the Capitol, the old base ball park was secured for the meeting. The board of school trustees, having already determined upon a system of penmanship to be taught in the schools, failed to agree in the selection of a text book. Superintendent Stoutenburgh pre- sented his annual report to the Commis- sioners, showing the condition of the work house and other institutions under his charge to be entirely satisfactory. Vet- erans of the late war who fought on op- posite sides met in fraternal union on their way to the battlefield of Antietam to dedi- cate a monument there to the Philad phia brigade; they were welcomed by Com- missioner Truesdell and held a camp fire. Lord Chief Justice Russell visited the city. Rev. John C. Bowers, recently called to the p&storate of St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, assumed charge of his new duties. A tournament was held under the auspices of the Washington croquet clubs, which was attended by a number of expert play- ers from northern cities; Sackett Duryea, a fifteen-year-old local player, carried off the honors. L. H. Schneider, for more than sixty years identified with business life in this city, died. —_+ e+ SHOOTING STARS. A Fair Exchange.
