For the Eye of Major Dye.

WARRINGTON, ID. o., July, IL, 1881.
70 The Editor cf The Erening Critic:
The police authorities ought to give their at
tention 10 Thirteenth street northwest, and, II
possible, prevent tho rowdyism which has
prevailed thero for sever,l weeks. This is
ole OF the principal streets leading 20 the
Smithsonian Institution and Agricultural De.
partment, and II should be Kept free from
the iougbs who congregate there and render
IL imrassable TO strangers visiting the above
Institutions, as well as to the clerks employed
In them, many OF whom arc ladies'.
The attention OF Major Dye was called to this
matter last week, but as the state of affairs
has not improved In the meantime, 1t is to be
presumed that he paid no attention to the
complaint. Majors alley, adjoining Thir-
teenth street, is hotbed OF infamy, aud nearly
all the wickedness, which has given the NDi.
vision" noted reputation, has been generated
Within Its foul recesses.
on last Sunday evening three fights occurred
In this alley, and IN one of them a poor, In.
offensive colored man, familiarly known as
Major Brag, was cruelty beaten by some white
ana colored rouRhs, who were engaged In a
game OF "sweat," and quarreled over dlvls-
ion Of The spoils. Two very low liquor places
have back entrances from this alley, and In
these whisky is dispensed from the bar on
sunday from sunrise until midnight, and all
the popular games-poker,. pool, sweat and
without the slightest regard for legal conse'
quencee. II is nearly time that the police
should explore the Interior OF this alley and
weed ont the criminals who give such annoy
arce on the adjoining streets. A direct notice
to the Major has failed to move them to action.
a notice In TIE CRITIC Will no doubt have the
desired effect. MEMO.

IT is safe to say that for many years at
least the United States Government will
have nothing to do with Arctic expedi-
tions. Those that we have engaged iu,
either directly or indirectly, have cost vast
sums Of money and many lives. The ro.
suits have been of no practical value. When
the Proteus was lost tho general sentiment
was that only ono more expedition, that to
relieve Greedy and his party, should be sent
ont.
This sentiment is in tensifed by tho dis
aster that the Greedy party met with That
party went eighty miles further north than
any other expedition has ever reached, but
at the sacrifice of many valuable lives. The
only result that the average citizen can
perceive is the "eighty miles further
north" There Is nothing valuable or
practical even in that. 1t has been pretty
well established that Arctic expeditions are
foolhardy and worthless ventures. 1t Is
certainly time that they should be abau-
doned until other and safer means Of navi.
cation are discovered. Lieutenant Danen-
hover, who has been there, says that Arctic
expeditions should cease.

guilt and then let him get away with his
booty. And when Fowler, postmaster at
New York, stole 100000, tho same course
was pursued and he got away. And Tweed
and his fellows stole everything that was
left out over night, and the Democrats did
their best to deny, explain, or cover 1t up
until the Republican press Of that city tore
away all the screens and subterfuges and
made the thieving so plain that they could
deny it no longer And the only Democrat
who aided in exposing the stealing now re-
fuses to publicly indorse the ticket just
nominated at Chicago, for which refusal he
will be secretly cursed by the Democratic
leaders from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Oh, yes It's a reform party--but 1t wants
to reform the methods of preventing pub
lie stealing, chiefly.

scoRIs of the delegates to the Chicago
Convention No. 2 asserted over and over
that the ex-Sheriff could not carry New

if they had missed it about $4,000 for he
will be beaten in the Empire State by 1O0,-
eco majority at least.

JOHNNY MCLEAN carries the Democratic
party around in his breeches pocket, but is
so saturated with Standard oil that if any
one was to touch match to Johnny or the
party both would go up in chariot of fire.
Well, they would at least give some light
while burning, and thus prove more useful
in their deaths than in their lives. Who's
got a match?

Uncle pe,o and uncle Sam,

Home time after the war-it was down Ia
Georgia II hoppened-a couple OF colored boys
cnme TO schoolmisiross 10 be taught TO read
and write. They were brothers, and their
names we're Wallace and Mitchell.
Those were the only names they had, or, at
least, II they had any last name they didn't
know what II was. The teacher wanted some
name or other 10 enter In her book, 30 she sent
for the father OF the boys. But he didn't have
any last name. His name was simply Pete
and he was always called Uncle Pete. He had
been slave, he said, and his boys had been
born In slavery, and he didn't suppose he was
OF enough importance TO deserve two names.
"But the boys must have family name,
somehow" said the teacher. suppose you
give them one right here, uncle?"
The old darky seemed pleased and began
to scratch his old bald head. Then happy
idea struck him aud he smiled, and the tears
started from his eyee. "Waal, missua," said
he, 81 guess YOU may call em Govment.
Gov'ment has done bouts much TO- me as
anybody has"
And from that time the two boys went by tho
names Wallace ana Mitchell Government

THERE is one consolation about the ia
vorable consideration Mr.. Cleveland is re-
ceiving at the hands Of the English press
and that is that none but natives ana nat

The Evening critic. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1881-1885, 1884-07-18

FROM 1878 until this year the Republi-
can Congressional Campaign Committee oc-
cupied the house on + street, between
Thirteenth and Fourteenth, as their head
quarters. This year they sought better
quarters. The Democratic Congressional
Committee thereupon rented the building,
This is in perfect accord with the course of
the Democratic party. 1t takes up every
thing that the Republican party throws
{ side for something better.

THE New York Times claimed that Cleve.

Thereupon many Democrats of that city
say ''if that Is so We'll vote for Blaine for
he is an older and more experienced Repub-
lican than the ex-sheriff, and was nomi-
mated before him." Thus the Times Cleve-

lAGath" in New York Tribune.
Robert Lincoln, the secretary OF war, camo
more nearly out of the city of Washington
than any Of our public men. He was born
nearly forty years z in Springfield, Ills.
and, it Is said, at a tavern, where his father
paid "a a week for board for himself and
wife. At the birth of the second child Mr..
Lincoln wrote to a friend a curious sketch Of
tho secretary, saying: have another
boy, born on the 10th of March QS46. He Is
very much such a child as Bob was at his
age: rather of a longer order. Bob is short
and low and / expect always will be. He
talks very plainly, almost as plainly
as anybody. He Is quite smart enough.
1 sometimes fear he is one OF the little rare
ripe sort that are smarter at about 5 than
ever after. He has a good deal of that spirit
OF mischief that is the offspring OF much
animal spirits Since 1 began this letter q
messenger has come to tell ME that Bob was
lost; but by the time l reached the house his
mother had found him and had him whipped,
and by now, very likely, he Is run away
again" Not long after this, Mr.. Lincoln
was sent to congress for one term, where he
made one speech 1t did not look much like
his coming to the presidency after he went
home. Robert was n young man about
ready for college, when his fathe was made
president, and saw political life from the
standpoint not Of a mingler in it, but Of tho
prince and victim of II. The best thing he
found in Washington was his wife, OF whom
he was deeply enamored, and no has proved
q most careful husband
