For several consecutive generations Amer

tain theories Of government were renovated

the success of an English lady who sang

charmed the voters with her sweet voice
that they fairly tumbIed over each other
10 cast their suffrages for the candidate.
This Is very pretty thought, but 1t would
languish In this soil. Here the politician
cannot be expected 10 marry a wife with n

why should the public dictate to the
bakers What is the matter with the
butchers. or even the newspapers?' asks
MIR. Louis RudlCn. recording secretary of
the Bakers Association. in his card in yes
terday's Star. in which he pretends to
throw light On the veNed question of ex-
cessiye prices of bread in Washington.
Then he aids:
Price Of paper is cheap, the MergenthaIer
machine saves thousa nds Of dollars annual
ly, but the ads. are just the same price as
they were ten years ago"
The butchers can answer for themselves.
II they want to, what is the matter with
them. and The Star will answer for the
papers, 50 far as il Is individually affected
by Mr.. Rudloff-s boomerang query. There Is,
nothing the matter with 1t. True II is that
paper is cheaper than it was formerly.
True il is, also. that the MergenthaIer ma
chine. under certain favorable conditions.
saves money. And what is the result? The
public has the full benefit of both points.
The Star is today giving its readers more
than four times as much for their ten cents
week as IL did when paper was higher
Its advertisers have nothing to COMPLAIN
OF. either. Directly the reverse, in fact.
They are getting. through the constantly
increasing circulation of The Star. more
than three times as wide a publicity for
their announcements as they were getting
when the existing advertising rates were
adopted.
That Is what Is the matter with the
newspapers. so far as The Star is con-
eerned. II the bakers could point to such
q record the public would have no griev-
ance against them. On the other hand. il
would have much to be thankful for.

Mrs. Baseman, a Chicago widow recently
rejected the suit of Mr.. Jacobson, who i'm
mediately hired a German band to play
tunes with suggestive titles under Mrs
Baseman's window. The lady stood the
smiles of her neighbors and the persistence
of the band until patience ceased to be the
virtue that ii is supposed to be. Then she
pleaded with the leader, who refused to stop
playing on the ground that Mr.. Jacobson
had paid well for the music. Thereupon she
went to court and secured an injunction
him from giving such Objectionable ex-
preston to his woe. This shows Mrs. Base
man TO be a woman of nerve and action
The developments following her rejection of
MIR. Jacobson also demonstrate that she has
rare good judgment in the selection of
husband for it is more than probable that
Jacobson, if accepted, would have exhibited
his tendency to make trouble for the widow
in some other way than by a brass band
Perhaps there Is an inherent "toot' con-
cealed within JacobsOn's composition that
might have caused the widow more grief in
later years Mrs. jacobson than did the
assembled toOts of the whole Teutonic az
gregation. But there are two sides to the
question, and there seems to have been a
case If man is not going to be allowed
to show his disappointment in his own pc
culiar way what is to become of all the race
OF lovers who run up against the cold
shoulders of their charmers?

The betting has begun already in New
York on the state and city candidates and
II Is 10 be presumed that from now on
10 election day these figures will be
scanned closely by those interested in the
elections and living at distance from the
scene Of the excitement. There is always
some measure of guidance to be drawn
from the betting-ring ia these cases. The
early figures would appear TO favor Mr.
MOrtOa- There has been some money placed
In the exchanges at to l on the ex-Vice
President. Mr.. Straus. however, is still
commanding the favor of the men with
money 10 wager, who are willing to place
large sums at even terms on the Tammany
candidate. This would serve to indicate the
sporting idea that Hills is a fight against
the Chances, while Tammany, although as
sailed by all the decent elements in the CITY
and apparently at the ebb tide of popularity
and strength. may possibly pull through
Opposed to this view is the prediction made
yesterday by Mr. Grace that Hill will win,
while Col. Strong Will be elected mayor by
15.11 TO 2U.Opo majority. The news dealers
of New York have now threatened to bolt
Straus because his firm-Macy & Co.-seIl
periodicals &c, under price.
Mr.. Straus was also denounced last night
by the Trade Union conference of New
York UNIT for mayor because as member
of the park board ne had allowed the mis-
appropriation Of the sI.10.O,o fund for the
relief of the unemployed.
Mr.. Morton, the republican candidate for
governor. is also likely to hear from the
labor organizations unless ne can disprove
the charge of having violated the law
against importing contract labor. So,
taking one thing with another, the lot of a
candidate in New York this year is not al
together a happy sonc.

Information from Oakland. Cal. is to the
effect that General Kelley is steadily
engaged in organizing industrial army"
which. when springtime comes, Is TO march
rapidly possible to the national capt.
tai. Just what Kelley expects to make
out of CT accomplish through this new
army" of his is not apparent here, hut
the presumption Is that having made
fairly good living out of last summers
tramp, Kelley has made up his mind to
adopt army organizing as a profession.
If the pretcxt for the aggregating of any
considerable number OF tramps is the pcs
sible bulldoZing of Congress, then Kelley's
attention should be directed to the fact that
Congress must adjourn on March 4: which
date is some time earlier than the Kelley
ties could comfortably start from Cali
fornia for this side of the continent. Hut
Kelley should not be alone in the making
of preparations; TO BET his army into the
District of Columbia he must first pass
through eleven or twelve states, and the
governors of those commemorative should
DE studying how to make Kelley's pilgrim
age a failure. Last summer the various
state authorities hurried the vagrant col
umns through their respective territories
solely for the purpose of getting rid of
them; in future the practice should be
reversed and the idle ones forced back to
the place of organization. In view of the
possibility that the governors will be as
complacent as they were this year. the
District Commissioners might reasonably
devote a little attention to the announce
ment of General Kelley. The policy
which permitted the incoming of thousands
of beggars during the present year was
unsatisfactory to the citizen and expensive
to the community. There is undoubtedly
better way.

The good women of New York evidently
do not propose to let their husbands sons
and brothers do all that needs to be done to
bring about reasonable publication In
that most corrupt of all municipalities A
thousand such women met yesterday after
noon and applauded Dr. Parkhurst while he
talked of The Condition of our City and
Woman's Relation TO it, Little differences
of opinion came to the surface when some
of the suffraGists and anti-suffra gsts be-
gan to interjeCt their theories into the situa-
ton, but anything like serious disagreement
is quite improbable. DIR. Parkhurst's arsu-
ment for harmony was as strong as such
an argument could be. "All this matter of
political REFORM" said he, lis a warfare be-
tween that which Is honest and that which
Is false-between the clean and the impure
With such an ISSUE with the line distinctly
drawn, / cannot imagine why suffragists
and anti-suffragists cannot cooperate in
it,. OF course there are women of promi-
hence in New York who will toll as hard
for Straus and Tammany as others will for
Strong and clean government. but the great
majority Of those who are truly decent will
be found working with the opposition to
Tammany.

Somewhat PharasaicIl in its attitude to-
ward tn wild and woody west, the east
has frequently called attention to the
superiority of eastern virtue and the alb
sencc throughout this region of species of
crip.e cnly too common in the country be-
youd the Mississippi. Conspicuous among
the western methods of acquiring wealth
has beeI the extremely Improper habit Of
train-r1bbing. and upon that topic many
a homiiy has been preached by eastern
people who never appeared to be able to
understand how II was possible for three
or four or half dozen men to hold up
a train-!oad Of passengers and get safely
away with large booty. But opinions will
have TO b. revised in a hurry. for last night.
within forty miles Of the national capital,
seven men easily secured control of the
north-bound express the Richmond.
Frederick sburg and Potomac railroad and
got safely away, taking with them more
than enough money to repay them for the
time and muscle expenicd in train-stopping
and cdr-wrecking effort 1t is not at all
wonderful that such an uncomfortable oc-
currence should have taken place in Vir
ginia anywhere else in this vicinity. for
of all the ways by which dishonest man
can steal money none appears To be SO easy
of operation or 50 safe as train-robbipg:
IL is only surprising that such things do
hot happen more frequently. There is con-
tinual temptation for men who are inclined
to take even desperate chances III the large
Sums OF money carried by the express COM
panies. and the temptation is much the
stronger when it is known ,as it is here
abOutsl that neither the express compan MES
nor the railroad companies have made any
provision for protecting the treasure or
fHar
stolen. the stable door will doubtless be
doubly locked and barred. so nervous peo-
pie who travel IN this neighborhood need
not look for local repetition of last nights
crime within the next month or so. But
now that the train-robbing industry has
been fairly established in the east We may
reasonably expect TO hear of similar hap
penings in the vicinity of Philadelphia, New
York and Boston.

Today there were but sixteen men at
work upon the new City Post-Office build
ing. Sixteen industrious men who are ex-
perts in that sort of construction might
possibly complete the building by March
4. 1900-a faraway Inauguration day. The
average number of men employed during
the week now closing was thirty-six and
a half. Last week the average was thirty
eight and one-sixth. The average for the
two weeks is therefore thirty-5even and
two-thirds. 1t is now two years. seven

going out into the market and securing his
talent there at low rates? 1t would GER
tainly add to the flavor of politics to have
the nominee of the populists for Congress

introduction of a little light and joy into
our public functions would he great boon
indeed. After awhile, when the novelty
wears off. the debates in Congress might
be touched UP with occasional banjo per-
formances by select artists, or by skirt
dances conducted in the bull PEN" Or
maybe there might be competitive pie
eating contests, with the Speaker as the
judge of merit. There are vast possibilities
il this notion, and when it takes root then
even the most viciOusly conducted cam
paigns could be depended upon to add ma
terially to the gayety of nations.
