The Evening critic., 1882-04-01

suggest to the committee that the Senate
once passed a bill making policemen water
officers and authorizing them to enter
houses at any time without notice and sec
if water was being wasted. The Car of
Russia never issued more arbitrary and
outrageous ukasc even in the darkest days of
the civilization of that empire. Such
law would he disgrace to its
makers and would render the life Of n
District policeman uninsurable in any life
company having the slightest regard for
its stockholders. of course no policeman
would enter n Senator's house, even if the
law were in effect, but the residence the
castle of the Amcrican-of every other
man in the city would be liable to inva-
sion at any hour Of the day or night, and
the average American is apt to defend "his
CASTLE Under that law policeman
could enter the house and proceed directly
TO the bath room, battcring down all doors
in his way, and enter the bath room, even
if the residents wife or daughter were at
the time taking bath. Let us hear no
more of that law. Give us plenty of water
to waste.

Captain Goldman Makes u Few Peril
nent Remarks.

TO The Editor Of The Eceaing Crhic!
writer IN Thursdays CRITIC asks "Who
pays J. @. !" and answers his own question by
asserting that he is " the agent OF the British
Lloyd and OF the Golden Club"
Why these corporations should pay him or
any body else for advocating "free ships Is
not apparent. Why British shipowners
should pay him for endeayoring TO take part
OF their carrying trade from them Is not more
so. Why British shipbuilders, who have
about all the ship building required by the
necessities Of commerce., and 10 whom, as Well
as TO the companies that insure them II is Inn
material what fags their ships carry, should
pay for having them owned by Americans In
stead Of Englishmen and other foreigners
whom we protect, is not more clear than either
Of the other propositions.
Until the writer Of the paragraph In THE
CRITIC Of last evening Is ready To discuss the
question on It's merits, and Is brought q the
BELIEF that people who differ from him may be
disinterested, he cannot better convince him
self Of his mistake than by searching for proof
that a British agent has ever been employed
10 advocate free ships In this country, and by
endeaVOring 10 secure the reward OF one thou
aand dollars which has been standing on
record for ten years, and Is as yet unclaimed, /,
for evidence that a single penny has syer been
paid by British parties for the purpose Ia
dJcated. J.C.

THE Republican this morning administers
just and singing rebuke to the Associated
Press agent at Richmond for using his posi-
tion to give partisan bias to the news he
sends from the capital city of the Read
justers. From the tone of the dispatches,
one would think that Fergus Patrick Ferris
sends them. But he doesn't. His malice
is confined to dispatches sent West from
this city, and his stupidity to the Eceaing
DuIIDsSs
The Evening critic., 1882-04-01

THE Washington correspondent of the
Fredericksburg (Va) Ners writes that
"thore is not much faith in Colonel George
Bliss, the Presidents friend" This charge
is incorrect in one particular; Bliss has
great faith in his ability TO get cigars
enough given to him to set 'em up dozen
times day.

THE CRITIC has the profound satisfac-
tiop of laying before its readers to-day
brief screed from Captain John Goldman.
1t is clear, states its points neatly and ends.
Good qualities. We recommend its perusal
to our readers. In the meantime, THE
CRITlc will go on in its endeavor to revive
the building of ships, as well as the sailing
of them, by Americans.
The Evening critic., 1882-04-01

OUR correspondent, ]. Aleck Clarke,
yesterday suggested the formation of gas
company on the mutual plan, so that the
extortions of the Washington gas monopoly
may be stopped. That may be necessary,
but The CRITIC is not yet ready for that
remedy. The thing that ought to be done,
is for Congress to take the works of the
gas company and either give them to the
city OF put them in commission and reduce
the price of gas SO that the stockholders
will receive ten per cent. on their alleged
investment of 81, 100000. This can be done
and the price of gas reduced to 81 per
thousand or less, and the quality vastly
improved.

Mr.. HoAR only got S250,0O0 to educate
his wild Indian children. His manly heart
bleods for those poor, untutored sons of
"the forest and plain" but what of those
nntntored children in Boston, Mr.. Hoar?
The Evening critic., 1882-04-01

The president Of the Chicago Lumbermlns
Exchange sounds the alarm In regard to the
rapid annihilation OF our forests. Among other
interesting things he stated:
II has been estimated that the increased de-
mand in the production of lumber since 1860
has been at the rate of not less than nfty per
cent. for every Ave years.
Should the increase continue, our forests
must suffer annihilation within tho next
twenty years.
Nevertheless, under our beautiful system
of protection, bounty of over s2 per thou
sand feet is offered for the destruction of
these same forests.
The Evening critic., 1882-04-01

THE Ereaiag star yesterday gave ex-
sheriff Daggett, who divides fat contract
with Chum Bliss as its authority for the
report that the President wanted Secretary
Folger TO run for Governor of New York.
Mr.. Daggett denies this in terms that makes
the star liar. Crosby S. Noyes is the al
Iced editor of the Ereninq Star.
The Evening critic., 1882-04-01

THE Boston World tells story of how
boys employed as messengers by the tele-
graph companies, errand boys and cash
boys go in squads to saloons at nights and
guzzle beer and whisky, getting beastly
drunk. These boys range from ten years
up. Here is a chance for Senator Hoar to
exercise his superabundant philanthropy
at Government expense. Are not these
children as worthy to be taken care of as
the Indian youth he is so anxious to tax
the people to educate?

ing body of intelligent men, but It is sadly
hampered in its efforts to do anything.
The House Committee has its " code" be-
fore the House, and that body has so little
respect for or confidence in its committees
that IL fails and refuses to consider the
code. In the meantime, the Senate Com
nittee has gone over it and noted the
changes that should be made, aud is only
waiting the action of the House ON this
matter The subject of reclaiming the Po-
tomac flats was by the Senate put in charge
Of a special committee, of which Senator
Ransom is chairman, and that committee,
constituted a year ago with power to sit
during the recess, has made no report.
As to the supply of water, the Senate
District Committee is now only waiting 10

to the ownership Of certain property, when

The New York Commercial 4dceriiser is
the leading Stalwart paper of New York,
and is the organ of the Administration.
Speaking of Mr. Merrick's appointment, it
says:
II the report is true that the Hon. II. T. Mer-
rick is TO succeed Colonel Bliss in the Star
Route cases, the prosecution will be greatly
strengthened.
When the home organ of the President
speaks so plainly of Chum Bliss, just fancy
what the President himself must think
The Evening critic., 1882-04-01

GENERAL KETcHAM, of the House Dis
trict Committee, and in charge Of the APP
preparation bill, reported it yesterday, and,
according to the Post, refused to make it
public because, "as several amendments
may possibly be made, a publication of its
items might mislead."
If the Post reporter gives correct re-
port, this is a most extraordinary act upon
the part Of General Ketcham. Since THE
CRITIC assumed the stand it has in behalf
of the people of the District, and has shown
it is not afraid to comment on any public
mans acts this possibly ought to be spelt
lake y, there is some danger, not that the
public will be misled, but that any JOB A"
OF " steal or injustice will be at once
placed under calcium light, and unless
the District Committee wants to rest under
the imputation that this is the reason for
Withholding the bill, it had better have it
printed p. d. q.

Ahent Tie LeilchAeIA Gave.

A copy Of the Grnyson AdDocdte,
published 1T Leitchfeld, Ky, was sent
to us about II month ago, together with
IL letter written by Mr. Joseph Mulhat'
ten, Of Louisville with the expectation
that some notice would be taken Of
their contents They profess to des
cribo u large cavern with immense
balls, rivers swarming with blind fish,
u great pyramid, Masonic alter, sar'
cophagi covered with Masonic emblems,
and containing mummios, Two of which
theletier wri er cluims to have now in his
possession. This story with variations,
has since appeared in several respecta
BILE newspapers, and it is time tol let the
public know that the whole statement
is Il fabrication.
One OF the persons mentioned as
having explored the depths OF this cav
ern is Mr. John +, Stone, surveyor,
by whose careful measurement it was
said to have been found that the main
avenue was fourteen miles long Mr..
Stone, however, observes, in answer to
a letter of inquiry; "Mr. Mulhatten's
story about the newly discovered cave
near LeItchtiell, Ky, is an utter hoax,
aud l novor heard anything about the
matter until saw it in printl"
The public is indebted to the same
inventive brain for the hoax that went
the rounds in 1873, about the Grand
Crystal Gave, near Glasgow Ky, along
whose wide roads carriage and span
might be driven for eleven miles, and
whose deep rivers were navigable for
stea uboa's for fourteen miles A letter
from MIR Kelly, the proprietor of this
cave, after expressing indignation at
these exaggerations, states that tits only
three miles long and has no rivers nor
roads, though" as he adds, there is
room for great many wagons TO turn
around, ii they were once in there"
