t THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C.,' THURSDAY, MAY 25. 1893-TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, ‘THURSDAY. permanent circulation in Washingt: limeslarger than that ofany other paper in vertising Medium it has ne competitor. The decision of the Court of Appeals in the Busch case, whether it be for or against the old licenses, will doubtless place the privileges and penalties of the old law upon the same footing, either destroying both or preserving both: and it is this result which the public is most concerned in attaining. The people of Washington insist that the act of 1993 is not jug-handled legislation, which destroys the penalties of the oid law, but leaves unimpaired the privileges granted by it. They msist that if the old law is so dead that violators of its regulations for the protection of the public can- not be punished, it is also so dead that the revocable licenses granted under it must perish. ‘They insist that either the old law—licenses, restrictions, penalties and all—survives until the Ist of next November, or that it is de- stroyed instantly and as an entirety by the new law. They resist any iaterpretation of the law which biows hot and cold with the same breath by announcing that the holders of the old licenses may sell under them until November, but are relieved from the necessity of obedience to the regulations against Sunday selling, sales to minors, &c.. which are provided for public protection by the old law under which they are permitted to sell. The restrictive penalties of the new law are confined in terms to those sell- ing by virtue of licenses granted under it. the old licenses survive, either the old pen: tues must also survive or the alleged allusions of the new law to the old licenses, which are thought to keep the latter alive, must be con- strued as such a revival and renewal of privi- leges otherwise dead that the regenerated old licenses may be viewed as licenses granted in accordance with the provisions of the new law and be subjected to its penalties Unless one of these alternatives is fulfilled, there will be un- til next November totally unrestricted liquor traffic in the District—a traffic which the com- munity is heid to authorize, but over which it is held to reserve no control. ‘The first decision of the lower court in its construction of the new law was that no offenders against the old Jaw either before or after the passage of the new law could now be punished. The decision that the privileges as well as the penalties of the old law were destroyed followed naturally and irresistibiy. The opinion of the Court of Ap- peals will reasonably and in the public interest cover both decisions, and subject them to the same fate. It Ex-Minister John L. Stevens, who has been considerably abused because he was alleged to be in a great measure responsible for the up- rising which overthrew the Hawaiian monarchy, bas at last come to his own defense. He speaks plainly and at length, reviews condi- tious prior to the revolution and in a charac- teristically straightforward way brings the record of Hawaiian happenings down to the present day. Not even the bitterest enemy of an- nexation can charge that Mr. Stevens’ argument is un-American orstrained. “Thesolution of the Hrgaiian problem,” says he, “should not be infi}nced by partisan prejudices and partisan pla:’. No sincere patriot, no wise statesman wil seek to gain party advantages or persona ends by its adjustment. There is in it an issue of civilization and good government against corruption, anarchy and barbaric sensualism. ‘There is in it an issue which rises to the im- portance of a great American question, bearing directly on our interests at home and entering directly into our foreign relations, as to which it is all-important that our policy should be continuous and not changed every four years.” The case is fairly put, and although Minister Blount’s actions have an anti-anneration appearance there is no other reason for believing tit this administration is disposed to deal adversely with a proposition that would not have to be made twice to any other nation. As to the important matter of a foreign policy Mr. Stevens suggests that: “In this regard we can weil take a lesson from Great Britain, whose statesmen, whether tory or liberal, show an unbroken front in their foreign relations. Differ as they do widely about home affairs, Salisbury and Gladstone unite in maintaining a consecutive foreign policy, and thus lift themselves to the elevation of real statesmen. To this firm, dignified and patriotic attitude to- wards other nations Great Britain largely owes her greatness. I do not believe that the administration of President Cleveland will neglect this great American opportunity, careful and cautious as is ite duty to be. Bui in due time, and at early date, I believe it will not fail of its great duty to the American peo- Je. It will not postpone that which cannot be jong postponed without danger, and without putting the loyal American friends in the Hawai. ian Isiands to grave anxieties and grave perils. ‘Those sunny and beautiful islands of the North Pacific, the fairest in all this mighty area of waters, are as important to America as the islands of the Mediterranean are to Europe. ‘These gems of the ocean will be accepted and placed among the jewels of America's future crown of empire and glory. Failing to accept this valuable prize would surely bring our statesmen to the bar of history with an indict- ment of blundering criminality from which there could be no ekcave.”” ——+-eo___ As most matter-of-fact people expected, there has been no difficulty as to the entertainment of the Infanta Enlalie. Inspected from the dis tance of a week or two all the excitement and worry that were manifested as to the cour- tesies to be shown her take on @ eaddish tinge ‘that does not harmonize with red, white and blue. The princess proves te bea woman of sense as well as of culture, too well bred to insist on or desire any depart. Ure from the customs of the country on her ac- count. To most representatives of European nobility the democratic spirit of this country is regarded with interest and respect. When we allow this flutter of anxiety as to whether we can properly entertain a guest of any rank, and proceed to an ostentatious inspection of our “company manners,” we cease to be honestly republican. ——_+-e+__ Politics has fallen into a summer day quiet and Washington has taken up theology instend. Matters of doctrine and church law are dis- cussed at street corners. Everyone who can crowds into the New York Avenue Church to hear the Briggs case. Meny of those who can- not get in linger in the neighborhood hoping to hear now and then how the Briggs case is get- ting on. Every one reads Tur Star and in that way gets a most satisfactory view of what is going on in the Presbyterian high court. ‘Those who are not familiar with ecclesiaatic | Iw, but form opinions according to maxims of the common law, find some interesting and now | technical features in the case. For instance to such « person Dr. Briggs’ powerful argy nent Yesterday that a verdict of acquittal shor id not be subject to appeal, and that a minister should not be twice placed in jeopardy of his ecclesinstic life see ned 5 strong. Churchmen, however, haw an answer to this, that it is, in fact, the docty’ ne and not the very trying the New York presbytery to determine whether its action in acquitting Dr. Briggs should not be reviewed. It is generally be- lieved that the sentiment of an overwhelming majority of the assembly before the argu- ment began was in favor of taking up and disposing of the case, and disposing of it ina manner different from that adopted by the New York Presbytery. How far the ob- Jections raised to hearing the appeal and the argument of Dr. Briggs, conceded by his oppo- nents to be an unusually forcible one, may change the opinion of Commissioners as to their right to proceed with the case, re- mains to be seen. There seems to be among the conservatives, who are numerically strong, s0 decided a conviction that the situation demands from the highest authority of the church the administering of a severe rebuke to apostles of Higher Criticism, who have dared to bring into question what they consider vital doctrines, that it is not likely they will be inclined to view with favor a proposition to refuse to hear the appeal on any technical grounds. ——__+e2____ Let it be assumed that Chicago's contention is correct and that the United States paid to her only $1,900,000 in souvenir coin, instead of the $2,500,000, upon which Sunday closing was conditioned. ‘This failure of the na- tion to fulfill completely its part of the contract would undoubtedly justify Chicago in repudiating the contract entirely, in return- ing the tendered #1,900,000 and in refusing to be bound by the Sunday closing condition. But will it justify Chicago in retaining the benefit which she derives under the contract and im repudiating only the condition? Or will it justify Chicago in _repudi- ating and violating the condition today with a vague promise that in the sweet by-and-by if something or other happens and she can afford it she will then return what she has received under the repudiated contract? One may believe that the assistance to the fair granted by the United States was mean and inadequate in amount, and that the condition attached to the gift was unwise and improper. But this is a Inw-abiding nation. The small donation was in fact and in law encumbered with this condition. And Chicago, whether she can afford it or not, whether the equities as between her and the nation are with her or not, whether the majority of individual expressions favor Sunday opening or not, must in protec- tion of her good name and credit either en- tirely repudiate the bargain with Congress and return at once what she has received under it, or, retaining the donation whatever its smount, live up to the conditions accompany ing it. + —_____ American ingenuity is keeping step with the Procession.
