Editor, has a rexular and permanent Family Circulation 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 hus no competitor. 67 In order to avoid delays, on yount of personal absence, letters to ¥HE S¥AR should not be addressed &® any individual connected with the affice, but sbaply to THE STAR, or to the Edijerfal or Busines, Depart- ments, according to tenor or parpose. District Committee Changes. One direct effect of the election will be seen in the make-up of the District com- mittees of the Fifty-fifth Congress. Natur- ally there will be more changes in the House committee than in the Serate. Of the fifteen members of the former body only six have been re-elected, Representa- tiyes Babcock, Harmer, Curtis of Iowa, Shannen, Odell aud Richardson, One who was renominated, Mr. Milnes, was defeated. Six others were not placed in namination, Representatives Hulick, Huling, Rusk, Meredith, Abbot ard Cobb of Missouri. One of the original fifteen was unseated during the last session, Mr. Cobb of Ala- bama, and he was not in the race for re- election. Mr. Wellington was ineligible for renomination, having been elected to the Senate. Thus of the entire committee nine will be new men, even if all the survivors are reassigned. This is an unusually large percentage of change But Chairman Bab- cock on the republican side and Mr. Rich- ardson on the democratic are familiar with the reeds of the District, and with nine good men assigned to the committee, in addition to their ciates left sitting they should be able to accomplish desirable re- sults. On the Senat® side there are but three anges possible. The terms of Senators sbrough,, Pritchard and Gib- son expire next March. Mr. Gallinger will almest surely succeed himself and Mr. € ris already named. The legislature of North Dakota seems now to be surely republican. Mr. Hansbrough may be embarrassed in his canvass by the use against him of his former free silver views, but he expects nevertheless to be re-elected. In North Carolina the republicans have a plurality in the legislature, but they lack a majority. They have an understanding with the populists that hardly amounts to a fusion on the senatoyship, however, and a lively three-cornered fight is promised when Mr. Pritchard is proposed for another term. Mr. Pritchard’s chances are thought to be a little better than those of 4ny other named candidate. The outlook is that the Senate will be controlled by the republicans and that the present organization of the committees will not be disturbed in the main. This will leave Senator McMillan at the head of District affairs In the upper house, an arrangement that will greatly please practically all Washington. tee Progress in the South. ‘The solid south is evidently broken. The first signs of the new order showed themselves two years ago, when Maryland, Kentucky, West Virginia, and Tennessee Increased the number of their republican representatives in Congress. These signs were emph d last year when Maryland and Kentucky in their local affairs passed under republican centrol. This year, Mary- West Virginia, Delaware, and, in and may be in actual fact, Ken- sive their electoral votes to the n national ticket. Moreover, even tions of the south where Mr. , the m: ties were as compared with the demo- cratie majorities of former years. The ures in both Virginia and Arkansas were tly reduced, and not even in Texas was nd pe. > this time to pile the derro- vote up as Ligh as the sky. is one of the mest wholesome results 2y’s elections. The south’s politi- cal solidarity has long needed to be broken for the seuth’s own good. That solidarity, brought about by the race issue, been ued long after there was any further for it. The fear of negro domination ldish now. Wh er it is invoked It no better purpose than to forward ends of some local machine. It wiil year examination for a moment. Mary- and and Kentucky, each with a large negro population, been enjoying republican rule for a year now, and with only good results. Those in authority are giving those states safe and reputable government. The negro is as far trom being dominant there republ in those Pues have as was when the democrats were in power. Why not this spirit spread throughout the south? Why should a mere bugaboo longer prevent the south from tak- ing a business-like view of business ques- t is superfluous to praise the south. is easily one of the fairest si untry, and one of the She deserves the b ow.

How much of what this remarkable man gathered on his travels will be available for application at home time alone can tell. But that China will benetit by a great deal of it is an entirely safe assumption. Li Hung Chang Is a man of both learning and progress, aad has for years stood valiantly for the little progress possible in so indo- lent and backward a country. His powers are now being extended, and the oppuriu- nity will therefore present itself for the carrying out of any new policies he may was haye in mind. The only regret is that this gaod fortune should not have eeme to him earlier in life. At his age he can hardly hope to more than inaugurate and indicate his purposes, leaving the carrying forward of the work to something like fruition to his successor in office. It is to be hoped that the report associating his son’s name with that responsibility may prove to be true. Lord Li was in his father’s train on this trip, and must haye shared in the inspiration and instruction of it, ‘The Czar, of course, was not a stranger, ag Li Hung Chang was, to the countries beyond his own. But he visited for the first time as the Czar, and had the first taste of his power and importance as one of the great rulers. He was made mueh of, and it seemed to impress him. The cheerg of republican France were the heartiest that he heard, though all were hearty, He ig just beginning his reign, His character ig praised and his powers are said to be praiseworthy. He is fortunate in the pos- session of a young wife whose training has_| heen of the best, and whose influence over | him must work only for good. There is great call for progress in Russia, and thig young man may answer it, He cannot have viewed the conditions prevailing in Hngland, France, Austria and Germany without comparing them with the condi- tiens prevailing in Russia; and if he ig worthy of his crown he will give his people the full benefit, consistent with their en- vironment, of what may be necessary to the advancement of their general welfare. The United States is interested in both countries. Rusgia ts aur neighbor on the Pacific side, and China fs not so far away. Progress in those two eountries means in- creased trade for us. We have much that beth of them need, and will sgek here in the opening of any new era there. We can Well afford, therefore, to rejoice in what- ever is attempted there looking toward the developing of sections swarming with peo- ple, and so greatly in want of development. Progre:s there will mean greater prosper- ity here, as well as a general betterment of things all over the world. ———*e The elections fully justify the statements and forecasts of nearly all of The Star's special correspondents in the supposed doubtful states.
