THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. D.C. SATURDAY.") MAY 80, 1891-SIXTEEN PAGES. 4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Lecal (trealation of any Newspaper in the Werld, and as an Advertising Medium ts worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. —— In discussing our occasional controversies with foreign nations it is sometimes suggested that we must take sides in pending European quarrels in order to secure allies for ourselves in case of hostilities, The suggestion of a pos- sibility of our intervention in European of @ foreign power with which conducting = war of words Let Britain beware! Let Italy look to her- it is not generally believed, to use the cautious phrase in which State Department news conveyed, that the United States will speedily depart from the national. habit of attending strictly to her own business. The republic is very apt, unless actually attacked byeome for- power, to keep its hands off the concerns of all other continents than that which it occu- ples, in order toinsist the moreeffectively upon 2 like abstention by the other great powers in respect to the affairs of the Americas. National and hatreds keop and will keep Eu- rope and Asia divided into hostile camps. No astion can strike us without raising for us on the instant effective and eager allies, if we should need temporary assistance until our fighting resources became available. We do ‘Rot need to entangle oursives in advance with ‘any of these possible allies or meddle with any of the European bones of contention. ee ‘The nation § ‘ht never have been formed if its authors had been moved entirely by senti- ment, but it is as clear as the fact of Appomat- tox that it could never have been preserved ex- cept by = demonstration of the loftiest senti- ment. No commercial consideration impelled the men whom the nation celebrates today. ‘They marched, they suffered, they fell at the eall of duty. Such a thing as patriotism bad Sxisted for ages on ages before, but not in all the tide of time was it more unalloyed than in ‘the heroes of ‘Gi-65. Saxon had died for Saxon autonomy, Dutch burghers for local and feligious liberty, our own fathers for inde- pendence. The soldiers of the American Union perished in battle or prison that the great re- public might be preserved, that human free- dom might have perpetual life and civilization its crown of glory. Republics are proverbially ‘ungrateful, but may the day be in the remotest future when the people of the United States forget the valor. the sufferings, the hercie death of the soldiers of the Union! ——_see- The Vesuvius’ experiments seem to prove that dynamite explosives fired into the air from ® platform not stationary cannot be depended upon to explode so as to be destructive to ob- jects in the water or near it. It would appear that further experimentation should be on the line of securing a stable platform that could be maneuvered easily and swiftly. The gus are solong and the machinery so extensive as to fequire a grenter space than could be secured ‘on a man-of-war devoted to other uses. At the same time they are not able, as the recent ex- periments show, to find in a vessel of seventeen oF eighteen feet of beam sufficient firmness for & trajectory in even moderately good weather, whereas the requisite is stability in rough seas. ‘There is nuthority for the opinion tat torpedo development shouli be on the old line of the submarine torpedo. - ee The appointment of Rev. Dr. Briggs as a professor at Union Theological Seminary has been vetoed by the Presbyterian assembly by a ‘vote of about eight to one. Every effort wns taken to cause this action to constitute merely ‘an expression of opinion that Dr. Briggs was generally unfit to furnish religious instruction to Presbyterian youth, whether from his tem- per and disposition or from the charac- ter of the views held by him, and to prevent the veto from amounting to a conviction of heresy. which charge is now pending for trial im the New York presbytery. But the public do not draw these nice distinctions, and so far as they are coucerned Dr. Briggs has been found guilty of heresy without formal trial on that cbarge. ——_++e____ Decoration day, ever of deep interest to the city of Washington, was celebrated today with afine display of soldiery, the District volun- teers vying with the veterans in doing honor to the glorious dead. The steady marching of the military organizations, the solemn music of the bands, the large crowds gathered at numerous points on the route, the speeches, poems and funeral exercises at the various cemeteries, all combiued to make the occasion what was re- quired. These annual testimonies of patriot- ism and gratitude are not, at least in Washing- Doves & Broruzn, 512 OTH ST., NEAR F. COMMENCING NEXT WEEK WE WILL CON- ‘TINUE OUR GREAT REMNAXT SALE, WHIC!

Mr. Warren K. Moorehead of Ohio, who is making antiquarian researches in the bowels of the earth in bebalf of the Smithsonian, has got himself into a nice kettle of fish. He was fairly dancing over a find he had made at “Fort Ancient” of « dozen or so remains of a former race deep in the ground, when some obstruc~ tionist without the love of science before his eyes, sprung the state law on him, which de- clares it to be « penal offense for any one with- out lawful authority to open any grave or tomb where a corpse has been buried. This covers ‘Mr. Moorehead’s case like a tea pot lid and that worthy scientist ison the ragged edge, seien- tifically, mentally, morally and legally. ~ eee ‘The drill exhibition of High School Cadets lant night was not only a credit to the organi- zation amd ite officers, but to the whole city and its schools.
