4 THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, ‘NOVEMBER 13, 1896—FOURTEEN PAGES, WASHINGTON. FRIDAY............. November 13, 1506. CROSBY S. NOYES.... .- Editor.

Revenue Legislation. Speculation about congressional action this winter on the subject of revenue seems to proceed without regard to the fact that the President in Fis annual message and the Secretary of the Treasury in his annual report may have something of interest to say toward solving Both must touch upon it in some way. Neither, it is true, can do more than suggest. But in the Presifient’s case a suggestion even may be of great service. It will at least not be difficult afterward to decide where he stands. If an effort is made to pass the Dingley bill In the Senate the debate may take an suimated tern. The bill was side-tracked in that body purely in the interests of silver. Nobody denied, because nobody could deny, that the government needed more revenue. The treasury deficit yawned like a wide ditch. But the Gemocratic Senators, aided by five republican silver Senators, voted against considering the bill, and that Prevented consideration. Then tke silver men of both parties seized this show of power, and partly by the aid of it went to Chicago and committed the democratic party to free coinage at 16 to 1. An appeal Was made to the country, and the country by a majority of about one hundred in the electoral college, and over a million popular majority, decided against silver. Does not this decision also, interentially, condemn the crippling of the government in the matter of revenue in silver’s behalf? At any rate the question is a very nice one for the sound meney democratic Sena- tors to consider. Whatever their purpose Wes, certain it is that their votes at the lest session to side-track the Dingley bill operated at Chicago, and later, in the interests of silver. They saw this them- selves, and came forward promptly and courageously as soon as affairs took that shape and exerted themselves to the utmost in the work of defeating silver. The Treas- ury’s deplorable condition was made by the silver men a count in their indictment of the sound money policy. And yet, that the Treasury was behind, and was still run- ning behind, was due to the refusal of the Senate under a democratic and republican and populist coalition to pass a bill for the Treasury's relief. The situation this winter therefore will be very aiSencre from that of last ering. r, for the time at least, been eliminated from the equa- ‘The country has declared against Buf the Treasury’s deficit remains, and shout! be acted upon promptly. The proper support of the government is not, and should not be made, a partisan ques- tion. the problem. THE EVENING STAR. tien. silver. ——++e. Fenders. A street car fender tnat will only fend When the object to be fended is in a cer- tain position favorabie for perfect fend- ing of little lue. Yet such is the device in general use in this city, and the theory of the companies appears to be that no better fender can be found. The result of this perverse blindness to the possibilities of mechanical ingenuity and the legal and therefore the financial value of an all-round fender that can be relied upon to fena, is that aceidents causing dis- figurement and death are deplorably fre- quent. Saturday wight a man lay so near the Tenleytown car tracks that his legs crozvsel the rails. The average height from the ground of a fender in the Dis- trict being about fifteen inches and the man being of normal size the fender of the next car running on those tracks swept over the | and likewise the so-called wheel-guard. Result—amputation. Of course, from the railroad point of view, the Victim took an unfair advantage of the fender and wheel-guard by lying down and offering oniy a fraction of himself for mu- tilation; but the evidences steadily accumu- late that the railroads must both in their own and the public's interest utilize the inventive ingenuity of the ceuntry in se- curing wheel-guards which will guard and fenders which will fend. ——~++e—___ Last night when the local Woman's Su‘- frage Association was engaged in electing Officers the startling fact was discovered that there were more ballots in the box than there were members present. ‘This outrage on the purity of the ballot was cer- chine politicians in this city last night dis- guised in woman's attire? ———~+-+___ The gentlemen who framed the Chicago platform are no doubt impressed by this time with the desirability of not conduct- ing too many alleged reforms at one and the same time. : ———~+e—____ Mayor Pineres says he thinks Major eKinley will make a good President.

Four names fill a large space in all the speculation on the ject of the next cabinet. Nine men out of ten will say that either General Harrison or Thomas E. Reed would make an admirable Secretary of State, and at least eight out of ten ex- Eress the opinion that Mr. McKinley would @o a wise thing by calling either John B. Sherman or William Treasury department. General Harrison while President im- pressed the country very favorably with his capacity to handle foreign aftairs. It is known that he took a lively interest in the work of the State Department, and con- tributed no little toward the successes it registered under hjs administration. He sccred in the controversy with Italy in the matter of the New Orleans mob, in the ecntroversy with Chili, and in the Hawai- ian episode, and in various other ways he managed to communicate to the world the fact that there was a live man at the heim in this country. His hand has lost none of its cunning; vigor. Mr. Reed has had little to do with foreign affairs, but he has succeeded so well with everything else he has undertaken that confidence in his ability to administer any office satisfactorily is very high. He is a man of wide reading, is a good writer and close reasoner, and knows international law. He, too, is a thorough American, and any policy he might pursue would be cer- tain to meet with popular approval. There is a feeling, however, that Mr. Reed in the speaker's chair again would be placed bet- ter to his liking. The next House will be Allison to the his Americanism none of its tainly not committed by any member of an association formed to elevate politics, and it now rests with Senator David B. , Senator Arthur P. Gorman and ex- Senator Thomas C. Platt to prove alibis. Were any or all of these distinguished ma- charged with some very important work, and he has demonstrated exceptional ca- pacity for cutting out and carrying for- ward work of that kind. Mr. Sherman stands highest among the fnanciers of the day, and hence, for any financial. work of difficulty and far reach- ing effect, his qualifications are conceded. There is work of that kind coming on. The next Secretary of the Treasury ought to be able to command the fullest confi- dence of the people and the fullest support of the business interests. He will find that he has an immense job on his hands. Mr. Sherman steered the government through seme pretty heavy breakers once. But that was nearly twenty years ago. He is stiil a man of vigor, but at his time of life he may not care to undertake another task of almost equal magnitude. Mr. Allison, who ranks next to Mr. Sher- man as a financier, has three times de- clined the treasury portfolio. He has al- ways preferred his seat in the Senate. He may still prefer it. In March next the new term for which he has been elected begins. His relations with Mr. McKinley are very cerdial. He could leave the Senate with- out it costing his party a vote in that body. The republicans control the Iowa legisla- ture, and his sucessor would of course be of that party. Mr. Allison as Senator has participated in all the legislation of the last quarter of a century affecting the cur- rency, and so is thoroughly familiar with the problem now presented. But as frequently as the talk respecting these four men Is heard it is nothing but talk. So far as known Mr. McKinley has hinted at nothing on the subject of his cabinet to anybody. He is not likely to hurry. There is plenty of time, and there are many interests to be considered. A great emergency, like the present, calls for a great cabinet. —>+e—____ November Meteors. Astronomers declare that tonight there will be observed a wonderful display of meteors ia the heavens. They give entirely credible reasons for this forecast, basing it upon the experiences of the past and the matkematically accurate probabilities as to the future which make astronomy one of the most marvellous of all the sciences. The earth’s orbit, they say, crosses twice a year the path of a great swarm of meteors swinging through space in an elliptical course. In August the planet upon which we live encounters these celestial wanderers, and again in Novem- ber the curves of the two orbMs coincide and the display is repeated. in certain places !n this enormous ellipse the meteors are thicker than in others, hence some years the “showers” are exceptionally bril- liant. This occurs about once in a third of a century, and it is promised that in 1899 the earth will be treated to a series of free pyrotechrics that will rival any- thing seer. since 1866. Fortunately, this 1s not a superstitious age, else the meteoric display of tonight—should it meet schedule expectations—might -be taken as a symbol of awful portent, giving rise to grave ap- prehensions. The spread of sctentine knowledge among all the people largely by means of the newspapers has rendered im- possible any such general panic. All who can read are doubtless today more or less familiar with the theorles of the meteors, knowing them to be practically harmless skimmers of the boundless ether, guided by the seme g-eat principle that causes the earth to revolve on its own axis and to swing around the sun. What a marvel! of human intelligence is the present devel- opment of astronomy! What an equal marvel of progress in this rout of super- stition through the education of millions! —__+ +e —___ Spain claims credit for having remained neutral during the political campaign that has just closed in the United States. She rather insinuates that Uncle Sam ought to reciprocate by keeping haads off from the Cuban insurrection. The government at Madrid is evidently suffering from an acute attack of diplomatic strabismus and should receive treatment at once to enable it to see the difference between the election of Mr. McKinley and the failure of General Weyler, between the cruel war just ended in the United States, and that still raging in Cuba. ————__+ +s ____ Major McKinley is compelled, with great regret, to announce that it will be utterly impossible to provide with an appointment every one who went to Canton on an excur- sion train during the campaign. + +«_____ With Senator Jones coquetting with a possibility of silver’s being recognjzed by the republicans, and Tom Watson stirring up discord among the populisis, it really looks as though Mr. Bryan's presidential prospects were being tampered wiih.

The generai is an artful dodger. — + 0 Only three score men were engaged today in the construction of the city post-office building. —___~++ + —___. SHOOT! STARS.
