Any other verdict than one Of suicide in the
case of Lille Low was impossible and the dis
charge OF the three persons held ION suspicion
promptly followed Why they should have been

charge had been made against them and there
was no evidence TO connect them directly with
the unfortunate girls death. Her father pro-
nounccs the inquest farce, apparently because
he was not allowed to tell the story OF his al

Coroner is to be commended for preventing any

The address ISSUED by the Republican State
Club to the Republicans of the State Is frank
and luminous setting forth Of the evils OF Boss
rule and the assumption Of party authority by an
olgarchy. The State Club was organized as
protest against this system in the Republican
ranks and In its first appeal to thesmembers OF
the party 1t announces It's purpose Of 'ensting
1.-The interest OF the great body Of the voters In
"eyerythng that concerns the welfare Of the
"party or the administration Of its affairs"
What the club desires and hopes to accomplish
Is to induce Republicans to control their own
party affairs by taking an active part in pr-
mares, caucuses. conventions, ETC. This object
cannot but appeal forcibly to all loyal and right
thinking members Of the party.

A DIPLOMATIC OFFENDER.

II is always a painful duty to connect in
a public way the name of a foreign diplomat
with some discreditable action. Repre-
sentatives of foreign nations are supposed to
be gentlemen of high standing, and when
the conduct of one of them gives him public
notoriety the universal feeling of regret al
most makes his offense excusable As a
general thing foreign diplomats in Wash
ington have been entirely above ungentle-
manly acts.
The arrest of Don Albero Fombosa of the
Venezuelan legation, in New York for in.
sulting ladies on the street is disagreeable
exception to this general rule His offense
was aggravated by his having persistentiy
repeated his sconduct a nd tie was oniyarrested
after having seriously frightened several
ladies.
II may be confidently expected that the
Venezuelan minister will Immediately send
Don Fombosa out of the country. There is
no room in the United States for foreign
diplomat who VIII insult American women,
no matter how high his rank or important
his station America ms are forced to
judge foreigners by their conduct, and II
they cannot behave themselves toward in
offending women they are not wanted here
under any conditions or circumstances.

LoAFING AT THE CORNERS.

There is a police regulation in Wash
ington which forbids the congregating
of men at the street corners and their re-
manning there for more than q few min
utes This ordinance is chiefly remark
able for its non-enforcement. Now and
then some policeman experiences a spasm
OF official Indignation and arrests some
body-generally the wrong party. The
regulation was intended to break up pro-
fessonal corner luafing, an evil that flour
ishes here in certain localities.
1t is an especially ilagrant act and it
is a common sight to see hall dozen or
more men herd together, splitting tobacco
Juice all over the pavement, vitiating the
atmosphere with vile cigars, and passing
rude remarks upon passing females. The
latter are not even safe from this kind
of insult when with male escorts.
Corner Ioafing is a despicable custom
which unfortunately has been much In
vogue in this city. 1t has been less in
evidence of late, but is still flagrant enough
TO call for drastic treatment.

its Baltimore trains, The Times deter
mined to compel removal of the poles,
peaceably If possible, forcibly il need be.
In accordance with this determination. the
suit in the police court was instituted.
Thanks to The Times, the poles will
now come down, and there will be no more
overhead trolley within the city limits,
unless the trust can prevail on Congress
to leealizc such an electric system. The
fight against the trolley nuisance has been
vigorous and bitter, but it has been gal
lantly won, and the trust can now be
recognized as a law-abiding corporation.
The morning times., 1895-09-16
DOWN COME THE POLES.

Taunted 10 action by the cartoons. edi-
torials and news articles of The Times the
Trolley trust yesterday suddenly changed
its policy of lawlessness and violated the
sanctity of the Sabbath in securing the
country to secure a force of men to take
down its trolley poles on New York avenue.
Not an effort was made last week to
comply With the agreement that led TO the
postponcment of The Times suit for the
removal of the poles, and had it not been for
the Indignation aroused by the efforts of
The Times the trust would probably have
continued to ignore the wishes of the public
and forfeited this last pledge as it has many
previous ones.
1t is now generally conceded that the
Trolley trust was compelled to obey the law
by the action of The Times in bringing its
suit for that purpose After the decision
of Judge Cox, placing the authority for tax
fng down the overhead trolley in the hands
OF the Commissioners, all prosecution of the
trust was stopped, and through its organ,
the Star, powerful plea was made for the
retention of the poles until the trust could
find time to change its motor system.
This change the trust has been promising
tomake for atleast Two years, ana believing
that it intended 10 maintain its overhead
trolley on New York avenue for tue use OF

revisit again the cot Of my childhood.
After fifty long years have gone out TO
the past.
And ponder alone through the tangled old
wildwood,
AS the c,oyds Garkly lower ard rush in
the blast.
The old cabin has wasted ard gone to ee-
cay,
crumbled down,
And the rag weed waves DER it with
blossoms so gray,
While the hills and the wales are bleak,
barren, ard brown.
The thistle and brier and long-creeping
vines
Have grown DER the hearthstone that
blessed my young years,
And over stone fences their arm entwines
The seats that loved when my heart
knew TO fears
The orchard and grave stones, far up on
the hill,
Have tottcred and twisted in winters
fierce gale;
And the stream has gone dry that turned
the old mill,
AS it rumbled and roared at the end of
the dale.
The schooIhouse where once my young
heart beat with rapture,
Has crumbled away in the breath of
the blast;
And oh, my soul sighs again to recapture
The pleasure 1 felt in the days that4are
past.
The old village church spire that shines
DER the hill top,
Brings back to my lone heart dear groups
that have fled:
The bellies and the beaux; the rcvivals and
night hops;
Alas, most are gone to the shades o ( the
dead.
some are gone Ger the ranges to sleep in
the vale;
Like myself, some have wandered afar,
Blown about like a leaf in whitening
gale.
Or attuned like broken guitar.
There's one 1 remember, go graceful and
kind,
AS pure TO my soul as the foam from the
sea;
The blush and the smile and the light of
her mind
The paragon nbeauty-my loved Laura Lee.
She faded away like the mist of the dawn;
For the angels'were jealous of her and me;
So my fancyful. fairy, fragile fawn
Was waited away to eternity.
Farewell 10 the homestead that Sheltered
my youth;
Farewell to the dells and the dinglee
knew;
Farewell TO the dear ones who taught me
the truth,
So honest. so cheerful. so lovely and true

AN ERA OF ORGASIZ,TION

Those interested in watching the growing
tendency Of municipalities to establis
their own lighting and water plants, and
in netting the inc reasing sentiment in
favor OF government control of railroad,
telegraph. and telephoneservice, must admit
that we are gradually drifting toward
q mild condition of socialism.
Instead of the rampant political speaker
who, few years since. stumped the country
for Individual independence, we are now
controlled by political ma chimes and advised
20 make party campaigns through we'll
disciplined organizations. Churches, cor
poratc enterprises, secret societies, and labor
organizations have divided and subdivided
our great social structure into as many diff
ferent bodies, and the independent American
citizen is in reality almost q creature of
the past.
This inclination to organize is the natural
outgrowth of progress, the result of a de-
sire to 1raterniZe for the promotion of
mutual interests. 1t comes with an ad
vanced state of civilization and is prompted
by more general feeling that the weak
should be protected from the strong. The
survival of the fittest idea, which is a
heritage of barbarism, is giving way to
the humane sentiment that all men and
women are entitled to prosperity, and ex-
periencc has demonstrated that organiza-
tions and mutual efforts are the only safe
guards TO be relied upon in resisting the
encroachments of INSTRUCTED brain en-
ergy.
When men employ the gift Of intellect to
accumulate wealth at the expense of the
health and comfort "f others they not only
destroy opportunities for happiness, but
are also the means of preventing n more
rapid uplifting of humanity. 1t is this
selfish method of retarding the progress of
the world that leads to organization, and
its tendency is toward the final extinction
of immense and oppressive fortunes.

of The Times. Such is not the case. 1
was asked if Mr.. Alvey had spoken Ia me.
in reference to the matter and l replied
yes, he spoke To me the other evening at

asked me what lodge, and / replied the
Masonic lodge. This was all that was
said on the subject. and 1 was somewhat
