4 THE EVENING STAR. ASHINGTON: ‘¥ January ‘TUESDA’ 6, 1891. FRE EVENING STAR bas the fullest Local Circalation of any Newspaper in the World, ance of a wrangle over/the question: “What are the real issues involved?" The disputants are not near enongh together, it seems, toagree even as to what they are quarreling about. England wants arbitration to settle a sup- posed dispute as to whether Bebring sea fe = closed sea, and whether under in- ternational law the United States can interfere with foreign vessels outside the three- mile limit. If the arbitrator were confined to this question England thinks that she would have a fair prospect of success, so that is the kind of arbitration for which she clamors, and she poob-poohs the snggestion of any other kind. The American contention seeks to intro- uce equitable considerations into the arbitra- tion, and bases our claim on our rights under the purchase from Russia, England’s acquiescence in the exercise of these rights for a long period of time, and the offense of Canada’s action through her poachers in the breeding season against international good morals. England’s practice in respect to the Indian Ocean pearl fisheries is such a8 to make her peculiarly vulnerable in an sttempt to construe tech- nically, eaforce strictly and apply to the seal fisheries the general rule of interna- tional law in respect to maritime juris- diction. The debate has been conducted by Mr. Blaine with great skill and vigor, and in ‘the verbal warfare the republic has a distinct advantage. But while the interchange of words goes on, and time and quantities of paper are wasted in the reiteration of positions assumed, the suggestion on each side of the kind of arbi- tration desired, and the refusal of any other, the days slip by in which measures for the pro- tection of the seals must be agreed upon and taken. The goose which lays the golden eggs both for America and England will be killed, while the beneficiaries are quarreling over the details of the best and most appro- priate method of protecting the fowl. The re- public, however, goes far toward a settlement of the matter when it indicates a willingness to submit what has been viewed as » domestic concern to arbitration of any kind. England ought not to hesitate to assent to the American view of the scope and details of such an arbi- «sc gara aun AE, Wee ‘The republican legislative caucus at Harris- burg declared yesterday for the elections bill and the Pennsylvania Senators, although un- derstood to be personally averse to the mens ure, voted against displacing it, but still there were not enough Senators to go on with its con- sideration. It was laid aside for the silver bill. Some persons speak of the vote on Senator Stewart's motion as “a bolt from aclear sky.” ‘That it was a bolt there can be no doubt. That there wasa clear sky when it fell depends on the powers of observation possessed by the ob- server. Toany one who has carefully noted the course of things the motion was to be ex- pected, although it may have been made a day or two before it was to beexpected. The move- ment was worked up by the leaders of the sil- ver republicans acting in concert with the democrats. For months this alliance has been known and freely commented upon. In the face of the expressed views of a majority of their colleagues and afew hours in advance of = party caucus called to take action on the questions at issue eight republican Senators decided deliberately to displace the elections by the silver bill. In the good old days of New Amsterdam eight men held the destinies of the colony known afterward as New York. They were called by pre-eminence “The Eight Men.” ‘The silver republican Senators who voted on January 5, 1891, to substitute financial for po- litical legislation are entitled to claim for this year in American history the title with its ‘accompanying notoriety of “The Eight Men.” Some leading republicans regard the elections Dill as dead by the action taken yesterday, al- though others still hope that something may yet be done with it. Unquestionably the out- look for the measure is dark. The Senate's decks are clear for action on finance and rou- tine legislation. The country will probably not regret the decision of the Senate to go on with other business. _ Senator Vest made a vigorous protest in the Senate yesterday against granting additional rights and privileges and public property to the railroad, without exacting at the same time some compensation to the public in money or improvements in return. Senator Morrill also defended the city, as he has on so many occasions in the past. But it ‘was well understood that the Atkinson bill ‘would pass the Senate, and it did so. The bill ‘Bow goes to the President of the United States, who, in his capacity of acting mayor of Wash- of such legislation. $+ ___. While the English are predicting the failure of German exploration and settlement in Africa, the Germans are pushing their schemes for colonization. It is stated that the German peo- ple are sore over the predictions alluded to,and contrast them with the friendly talk of the Eng- lish at the time of the Anglo-German treaty. ‘These great nations are rivals, and sooner or Jater they will collide on the Dark Continent. So far in the history of civilization the English hare been next to the old Greeks the greatest colonizers. But the Germans are of the same stock, and they have just become one people with, perhaps, the first genuine impulse to achievement in foreign fields. —————<+- ‘More light appears on the question now agi- tating the Methodist Episcopal Church, the Proposed change of the constitution to admit women delegates to the general conference.
