operation, applying to all classes of
citizens. An exception could not be
made in the ease of the Methodist,
the EpiscopaliaD, the infdel or the
Mormon. Would there not
soon go up a cry against
this street-talk evidence that would
make the enforcement of the law
practically impossiblss Nothing
would he gained in providing by
statute against polygamists or those
who believe in the practice sitting
on Juries for the trial of those
charged with the offense. That is
done now, and has been the rule for
years. DISTINGUISHING polygamists
and debarring them from the privi-
leges of holding office or sitting OH
juries, and denying them the privil-
eyes of citizenship seems to be a
hobby with good many anti-Mor-
mons. Ihls may be just what is
lacking for the suppression of
polygamy, but it will strike
the thoughtful person that be-
fore a man can be DISTINGUISHED he
must be proven a polygamist, and
being proven polygamist he can be
convicted and sent te prisen. VIII it
be any easier to establish a mans
pslygamy for the purpose of disfran-
chisement than for sending him to
the penitentiary? We predict that
the Judiciary committees bill, which
is designed for the suppression of
polygamy" will prove sorry fail
ure, should it pass.

JEFF. DAVIS has been talking
again with his mouth, as will be
seen in another part ofthe HERALD.
He continues an entirely unrecon-
structed rebel, and repeats the stale
and altogether exploded idea that
the Lost Cause" is not lost. The
republic has been kind to JEFF
Davis-perhaps so kind as to not
impress upon him the fact that
rebellion is a terribly lost cause in
the United States.

cago newspaper which appears else
where in this issue Of the HERALD
will be apt to smother the few re-
manning hopes Mr.. CampbelPs
friends entertained that he would
be seated in Congress as the dele
gate from Utah. The dispatch is to
the effect that republican member
of the elections committee says
Congress must admit Mr.. Cannon /;
that a previous Congress examined
his naturalization finding it regular,
and that polygamy does not disqual-
ify a man for holding a seat in Con-
gress. Lawyers who are not paid
for thinking otherwise, editors and
the intelligent, reasoning portion of
the people have held to this view
all the time. The contested case
will be taken up by the committee

the eminent lawyers who framed
this bill believe they have hit upon
a measure that will exactly meet the
requirements of the occasion; but
should their bill become law, how
would it work? Judge Edmunds,
who stands at the head of the COM

in the case of the Mormons, to make
common report of a man and
woman living together conyicting
proof of bigamy. He would require
better evidence of the fact, which
might be well known in the com

could were the bill to pass. But

Literary Notes.

ga Fascinating Woman" by Madame Ed
mond Adam, cannot help attracting a very
large share OF attention IN this country, as 1t
10 a novel of peculiar power and interest. No
tably original, both In matter and treatment, 1t
never for n moment relaxes Its fascination,
which begins On the first page. The author Of
II Is now the most prominent woman In Eu-
rope, whose salon in Paris is frequented by all
the notabilities OF the day, French and for
eigD. In this work, Madame Adam, 1t Is as
serted, has reproduced much OF her own life
experience, she having at one time been
threatened with the loss OF her wonderful per-
sonal charms through Illness. The style is
beautiful from its very plainness and sim.
plicity. The characters are few, but
their paucity OF numbers is compen.
sated for by their extreme natu.
ralness. Helen's attempt at suicide is one OF
the most vivid and effective pieces OF word,
painting given TO the world for years, and the
receptions are painted with taste that cannol
be too ardently admired. 1t is published in 0
large square duodecimo volume, paper cover
price 20 cents, and Will be found for sale by al
booksellersi or copies OF It Will be sent TO any

District Estimates and Expendi-
lures.

To the Editor Of The ECeninQ Critic:
The following paragraph appears in THE
CRITIC OF last evening as an "important re-
port !" from the Engineer Commissioner, to
wit: "The reason for replacing the wooden
pavements before undertaking other work of
improvement is that very heavy assessments
were made against propertyowners for the
wooden pavements, and they have now moth
ing to show for the money so paid. 1t is only
equitable that these worthless pavementS
should be replaced by durable pavements be-
fore work is undertaken at tho general ex-
pense in front Of property whore no such as
sessments have ever been levied" OF the au-
thenticity OF this "important report" l have
no doubt, for have heard the recitation fire.
quently. Major Twining rectes 1t very well,
but like many a schoolboy, he never seemed
to comprehend the subject. The property own
ers on each side Of street paved with wood
have paid one-sixth of the expense, and the
other twothirds have been lat the general
expense. For instance, the owners of lots
on opposite sides OF a street Improvement
twenty-five dollars each, while the other hun
dred dollars became public burden.
If MAJ or Twining owned n lot on one side of
the supposed street he has had the benefit Of
of the said one-hundred- d-and-lfty- y-dollar i'm
provement in front OF his property at per-
sonal cost Of only twenty-five dollars; and af-
another one -hundred-a -fifty-dollar improve
ment, entirely at public expense, in prefer
ence TO his hitherto-neglected neighbour who
has never had the benefit OF any hundred-dol-
lar public expenditure, but who has contribu-
ted 10 pay for the previous Improvement for the
Majors benefit. Suppose, when Major Twin.
ing was promoted to the Commissionership,
his friends had been taxed Ave dollars
toward purchasing for him six-dollar hat,
leaving only single dollar to be paid by him.
Now, when the old hat is worn out, would he
insist that the "worthless" hat "should be
replaced" with new one by his Old friends,
because he 'now has nothing to show" for the
the dollar he paid when the old hat was new? f?
If so, when would his suffering subordinates
and constant contributors ever be able to have
hat for themselves.
But how about II and and q and and W
and Seventeenth and Eighteenth streets In
the extreme northwestern part Of thecity, which
the Major now schedules as 'requirlng i'm
mediate attention." but on which no ''such as
seesments have ever been Levied" and for
which there is no call or necessity except in
the interest OF speculators, 10 the exclusion OF
East Capitol street from Fourth TO Eleventh,
whose longsufrering residents have been sub
1ected TO these ''yery heavy assessments p II
Major Twining Will get out another "importani
report on this subject 1 will be on hand
again TO aid him In the rehearsal.
Respectfully, S. @. CLARKE.

that represents the financial and CONNER
cial classes most intimately concerned in
the relations that had grown up. Mr.. Ere.
linghuysen himself is a representative of
this disgraceful subserviency.
Latterly all pretense of the mask had
been thrown of, and the Herald, Times and
Er0ing Post, of New York, became as rcgu-
lar and as systematic in their advocacy of
British interests and British policy as any
journals published in London. SO long rs
the rdison u etro of these things remained
wholly economic, the American public
seemed unable to grasp the significance of
the situation and remained quiescent. But
the moment sentimental grievance ap-
peared the storm burst. Strange it is that
the American people would submit for a
generation to a system of commercial tutcl-
age that taxed our producing industries
over hundred millions year, and then
rise up in universal anger and resentment
at the imprisonment of four or five natural
lied Irishmen by the British authorities.
But such is the fact. 1t serves to demon.
strate that great masses of people can be
stirred only by appeals to the sentimental
side of human nature. Be this as it may,
we welcome the reaction. The relations of
this country to Great Britain have been
predicated long enough upon the ledgers Of
a few hundred New York importing mer-
chants and the feelings of few thousand
snobs. Lowell deserves the thanks-lcft-
handed though they may be-of the
American people for his reduction of snob-
berry to the absurd. Let nobody-and least
of all Mr.. Frelinghuysen-underr the
significance of the agitation that is in
progress. 1t means something more than
appears on the surface. 1t is the beginning
of a comprehensive revolt against the whole
system of trucking and subserviency which
has marked the attitude of the United
States toward Great Britain since the af-
fair of the Trent.

THE Washington gas monopoly need not
suppose that The CRITIC has let up on it
because SO far the District Committee has
failed to order the investigation which is
so much needed into the affairs of this
monstrous money grabbing and impudent
corporation. 1t has been reported that the
gas men say Congress has no right to in
vestigate the dealings of the company with
private citizens. This would be making
the creature greater than the creator, and
THE CRITIC will show the monopoly it is
mistaken, not only in that, but in some
other things.

THE letter of Secretary Kirkwood in re-
sponse to the resolution of the House
relative to lands granted to railroads, IS
skillfully constructed SO as not to convey the
information asked for and which would be
of interest," to the public. There may be
some facts told, but they are hidden in
verbiage and tables so that it would re-
quire such an amount of labor as no Con-
gresham will give to unravel them. THE

HERE is the bill which should be offered
in place of that clause" in the appropria-
tion bill: Be it enacted by the Senate and
House of Representatives of America in
Congress assembled, that the Commission
ers of the District of Columbia and their
bondsmen are hereby relieved of the liabil-
ity incurred by said Commissioners in un-
lawfully expending one hundred thousand
dollars, twenty-five thousand of which was
expended to improve the roadway between
the houses of two of said Commissioners.

THE CRITIC would suggest to the men,
bers of the Land League convention, now
in session here that there was once Secre-
tary of State in this country called Daniel
Webster, and that he had something to say
in regard to the rights of naturalized citi-
zens. His words and actions might be re-
called to the memory of the venerable Fre-
linghuysen, and the results of these words
and actions.
The Evening critic., 1882-04-13


If Mr.. Frelinghuysen can spare a mo.
ment from his engrossing duty of looking
after the interests of Great Britain and
Chill, we would respectfully call his atten-
tion to the rapid growth of snti-British
sentiment in this country anent the perse-
cution of the Irish people. We desire to
call Mr. Frelinghuysen's attention more
particularly to the fact that thi, feeling is
not confined to resentment on account of
the confinement of naturalized American
citizens in British jails, but is rather an
expression of revolt against British tutelage
in general.
1t has long been evident TO patriotic
observers that British influence in this
country was never so potent al it has been
since 1870. The complete command Of our
commerce which the monopoly of the
oeean-carrying trade gave to Great Britain,
together with the immense investments OF
British capital in American enterprises,
gradually and insensibly, but no less
surely, produced a condition of depend
eDey.
This condition of course gave rise to a
sentiment Of subseryieney, which has long
found expression in the New York press,

We WOULD respectfully ask our distin-
guished friend, the able editor of the Re-
publican, to inform us, if consistent with
the public interests, just how he expects
the great cause of Liberalism in the South
to be promoted by Brewster's policy of CO.
ercion in South Carolina. AS we UNDER
stand it, Mr.. Brewster proposes to evade
the appearance of partisanship by employ
ing Philadelphia lawyer of the Samran-
dali school in politics to do the prose-
cutting. Perhaps this is the secret of the
thing. But to our unaided vision it looks
very much as though Mr.. Brewsters views
of policy were almost as antique as the
medieval quarterings on the panels of his
heraldic turnout.

Because 1t Is ConstitutionalIy Mean

10 Me Edttor or 1he EUeatng C5ttic:
AS 1t appears to be the order of the day to
ply you with conundrums, your correspond
ent takes occasion TO inquire If there is any
newspaper In this country, except the EUeai'g
Star, for which higher price than that printed
at the head of the paper is habitually de-
manded by the newsboys on the the streets Of
the city in which 1t is published In other
words, is 1t not the custom to sell papers to
the ntwsboys at such n discount as will en-
able them to make fair profit by disposing
Of them at the price named on the paper?
j.
Like everything else in regard to itself, the
star lies as TO Its price. Its meanness crops
out in its treatment of the newsboys, who have
to pay l y cents for the paper, and they can
not sell 1t for less than cents. 1t does not
protect them even in this, for It will sell the
star at the Office for cents, thus underselling
its own agents and engaging In pitiful rob-
berry OF poor boys. The custom is universal,
and all newspapers abide by it, to sell on the
street at the published price; but the Star is
too mean in its dealings with the boys, who
have made it, to permit this.-ED. CRITIc.l
