In Colonel Warnings Memory

All goodthings come from God. So
all good men are Gods partners. We
respect one who is always working for
good. We throw the doors open wide
for all good men, and those who de-
serve the seat of honor in earthly as
semblies are those who do the most
good for their fellow-men. We claim
Col. Waring as co-worker, a friend
and fellow-soldier. He glad gave his
life, and gave it brilliantly, for his
land. We believe no longer in the
crude philosophy of earlier days that
divided mans duties into two spheres,
divine and secular.
Colonel Waring is the latest ex-
ample that the most effective lives for
good are found among men eager to
render service to their country. And
it is we'll for this land, despite the
pessismistic idea advanced by some to
the contrary, that their services are
| needed. Ten men are always found
willing to offer their services at ev-
cry opportunity where one is needed,
and there are thousands of men, less
brilliantly equipped than Colonel
| Waring, who had hearts just as
brave and Wills ready to do Gods
work.
Colonel Waring left his mark behind
him. The filth and squalor which met
him when he took command this fair
city can never again descend to. He
met his reward in dismissal and neg
lect. We know with shame that in
no other civilized city in the world
save in the United States, could man
who had given three years of his life
and proved himself so capable, fit and
energetic in prosecution Of work be
thanklessly discharged and no account
taken of his services.
We have faith to believe, however,
that in days to come fathers and
mothers will, when they show their
children that a professional life in
cludes among it's first possibilities
that of service to the city and to the
land, and that the Nation deserves the
fairest and best and truest of our SER
vice, point to the example of Colonel
George E. Waring as one of the most
brilliant. 1t will be well for the land
when man will be honored by po-
sition among his fellow-men not be-
cause he has melt to beg it, nor licked
the boots of any one to retain it, but
because he gives an honest days work
for an honest days pay, and thus
proves himself true servant of the
people.-Rev. RI. Rainsford

A Prominent Democrats Views on
Political Conditions. 4

There is no better known Democrat
in Ohio than Hon. Lawrence T. Neal,
for many years q resident of Chilli
cothe, but now Of this city, where he
is practicing his profession, that of the
law. Mr.. Neal was member Of Con-
gress from the Ross district in 1873
n, and in 1898 was foolhardy enough
to run against Governor Mckinley,
who was a candidate for second
term, t plurality of Mckinley being
sc. .995. Since that time Mr.. Neal has
withdrawn from active participation
in politics, employing the time sizing
up the situation, and dealing oracular-
ly with the signs Of the political zod-
lac as they present themselves to his
analytical mind
Mr.. Neal does not believe that Hon.
w. ]. Bryan will be the Democratic
standard bearer in 1900. In an inter-
view he says: 1T is my opinion sill
yer will not be the issue of the next
presidential campaign. The Republic
cans have the United States senate for
the next eight years, and we can hope
to accomplish little if anything, even
though we should elect the next presi-
dent.
Again, consider for a moment the
result of the recent election. We
gained congressman in New York,
New Jersey and Pennsylvania, where
the silver question was not made an
issue, and in the Western states, where
we supposed the sentiment in favor of
the free coinage of silver was strong,
we lost. That, believe, is an index
to the situation.
II believe that the party should de-
clare itself against Imperialism and
make that the issue. 1t might be a
little unpopular at just this time to ad-
vocate such an issue, but I believe in
12 months the laboring men of this
country will realize that the annexa-
tion of more territory will not rebound
to their benefit. Just at present, when
patriotism is at fever heat, there is a
feeling that our flag should never be
hauled down from any place it is
raised, but that sentiment is bound to
change.
"Of course, such platform would
not find favor with all the followers
of the Democratic party, but 1 believe
in principle and not in party. A party
should stand for principle"
He further said that with free sill
yer eliminated, of course, William Jen-
nings Bryan would not be the Demo-
cratic presidential candidate in 19O0.-

Discouraging CAPITAL.

Judge Stevenson Burke, of Cleve-
land, who is justly regarded as an able
jurist and conservative citizen of
the Buckeye State, is outspoken in his
criticism of the populistic policy of
Attorney General Monnett, in bringing
contempt proceedings against the
Buckeye Pipe Line and other corpora
tions, The judge says:
Il disapprove entirely OF the Attor-
ney Generals attack on the Standard
Oil Company. That company pays
out enormous sums of money for labor
in Ohio, and it furnishes the commun-
ity with good article cheaply. Why
he should be ,rying to drive it out of
the state is something | cannot under
stand. It's on par with his attack
on the national banks. He is deliber-
ately discouraging men of activity and
enuterprise,an is trying to make cap
ital feel as unwelcome as possible
1t will be a great misfortune for the
State if capital feels compelled to go
elsewhere. If he would leave the in
dustrial classes alone, and devote his
attention to the criminal class, he
would De much better occupied. His
present course is a grave mistake"

THE SHOOTING SEASON,
Gunners May Begin the killing of
Birds September L,

Under the laws of the District the gum
ming season. for reed birds, ortolan. snipe
and plover opens the LIST day of September
For the killing of any of the birds out of
season the law provides a penalty of 50
each for reed birds and ortoIan and s. each
for snipe and plover
The law not only prohibits the killing of
the birds, but the penalty also applies to
the mere possession of them, dead or alive.
A test case was made under the bird law
last year, and the provision was upheld by
the Court of Appeals.
Gunners generally do not expect a good
cunning season this year SO far as reed
birds and ortola1 are concerned. The
marshes. they say. are not in extra good
condition. and they fear the birds will not
be numerous. There are already some few
reed birds in the marshes, but the law has
not been violated as much this year as Il
has in years past. Maj Sylvester is de-
termined to see to the enforcement of the
law, and more than the usual number OF
policemen are on guard, in addition to the
deputy game wardens. AS published in
yesterdays Star. an arrest was made and
fine imposed in the case in the Police
Court.
Blackhirds are plentiful in the marshes.
there being no law against shooting them.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
With the enforcement of the new police
regulation as to bicycle riders keeping to
the right side Of the street to avoid acci-
dent, would it not also be well for the reg
ulations to include prohibition to children
playing in the streets, where they are al
ways in danger of being run over by wag-
ons, and are constant source of anxiety
and annoyance to bicycle riders? Wheel
men must be exceedingly careful to avold
them and avert an accident to both the
rider and child. People, also. who saunter
in the roadway might better keep on the
sidewalk Further, 1t would seem right and
proper that glass be kept from the streets,
and a person wfllfully or carelessly throw
ing or placing it there should be fined or
punished for the ofense. r. d. II.
