_THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. FRIDAY._.___. _. —__. ____.June 2, 1893. —— Roszx 8. NovEs. Editor. ‘Sur EVENING has a regular and permanent circalation in Washingten three times larger than that ofany other paper in the city. As = lecal NEWS paper and Ad- ‘Yertising Medium it has ne competiter. Without startling the community in which it ‘was located or damaging the material structure of the charch for which it legislated and per- formed judicial functions the Presbyterian General Assembly of 1893 bas ceased to be. The ministers and elders who composed it constituted as a whole one of the finest bodies of men ever entertained in any city, and Wash- fngton will give thema warm welcome when- ever they elect to return, whether they bring ny heresy trials with them or not. There ‘were cities that withdrew invitations sent to the assembly to meet in their midst next year Because they did not want to have a heresy trial on their hands. It then looked as though the assembly of 1894 would have on its ocket the Briggs case as weil as that of the ‘Rev. Henry Preserved Smith. But Saratoga Bprings, which like Washington, fs cosmopoli- tan, was willing and anxious to shelter the as- sembly, heresy or no heresy, and there amid the green pastures and by the waters that are never still the assembly will next assemble. ‘Washington has not been injured by the heresy Proceedings. Perhaps the heat of debate was felt here a little more than in any other city, ‘but, thanks to the telegraph and the press, whatever there was of benefit or of harm in the utterances made before the body was distributed quite impartially the ‘whole land over, even Mississippi, where there {sno Presbyterian Church, getting its share. Moreover, the particular brand of heresy ‘of which Dr. Briggs is accused does not Threaten the religious life of the com- munity. The verdict and sentence in the Briggs caso undoubtedly expressed the honest sentiment of s large majority of the commissioners to the assembly. They were forely troubled over the condition of affairs in ‘the church and believed that decisive action was necessary. Many outside the church will disapprove the verdict, but that, to the church, 4s nota matter of great moment. What con- gerns the Presbyterians most is the disapproval ef those who are of themselves and of their ‘own consciences. Instead, however, of the peace which it was thought would be secured Dy # final adjudication of the case it now looks as though the Presbrterian Church had merely sdvanced s step in a prolonged period of con- troversy. —_—_0»—___ Reform seems to be the order of the day in several departments of the general govern- ment and in none of them more sincerely than im that one which is ruled by the Secretary of the Navy. Every energy is being directed toward the satisfactory upbuilding and equip- Ping of a great naval force and it seems as ‘though the efforts could only be successful. In ® little while there will be demand not for more ships, but for more men, and although ‘there ia not likely to be any shortage of officers the chances are ‘that it will not be easy to find a sufficiency of @horoughly trained seamen.

Supposititious cases ‘have been setup by the score in behalf of the op- ‘posite contention. For instance, a merchant offers to sell certain goods for the sum of twenty dollars and customer agrees to take them at that price, but when he opens his Purse decides to give but fifteen dollars. His action is represented as a breach of contract and theemerchant is very properly declared to be justified in rofusing to deliver the wares. The parallel, asthe gentleman from Tipperary would say, is not a parallel. The allegory will not touch the Chicago situation ‘until the merchant not only declines to deliver ‘the goods, but also holds on to the fifteen dollars proffered by the customer.

It must be evident to every one who has perused’ the epis- ‘les emanating from Mr. Nordhoff’s pen since Bis departure from San Francisco that the vet- eran journalist went to Hawaii not only for the purpose of doing everything in his power to Prevent the annexation of the islands by the United States, but also to npset the provisional government and thus bring about conditions either anarchical or monarchiral. All the testi- mony points directly to this conclusion, and if ‘Mr. Nordhoff puta in the remainder of hia days eontinuing the explanations which he published yesterday he must fail to establish the reputa- tion for equitable statement so necessary in the mewspaper business at all times, but especially during such a crisis as noweenters in Honolalu, Ex-Minister Stevens, who is by no means care- Jess as to his statements, whether private or public, says that Mr. Nordhoff has been making good deal of trouble and had to appeal to Minister Blount for pro- tection. “His letters,” says Mr. Ste- vens, “have been false and migleading. The first letter, it has been found by the newspaper men who investigated the matter, was written aboard the steamer going down, an@ was mailed by the steamer which went out after his arrival. Paul Neumann, the queen's paid attorney, and Ed Macfarlane, once Kalakaua’s Chamberlain, went down on that steamer with Nordhoff. They filled him up, and evidently was based only on what they told him.” Since then Mr. Nordhoff has contributed to the I:ter- ature of the Hawaiian episode several mis-,| Best Imported Patent Calf Plain Square Toe Laced Shoes, apie price, 83.6!
