Further de- Date is unnecessary and inexcusable. Every ‘wasted hour means delay in the recuper- ative process, and every day of senatorial language and miscalled courtesy means prolonged stagnation and the bankruptcy of many men. Should there be six months of debate it will change not even a single vote, and this fact is patent to every Sena- tor. Why, then, delay? Why not at once come to a vote? One of the legitimate re- sults of this polite procrastination is found fm the document framed by -ighteously- angered agriculturists who have appealed to Governor Tiliman to call an extra ses- wion of the South Carolina legislature to pass a stay law on all debts falling due on or before November 15, so that, as they put it, “We may be enabled to pay our debts without bankrupting ourselves and starv- {ng our wives and children.” The country 1s endeavoring, and with some show of suc- cess, to climb out of the financial hole in ‘which for some time past it has been com- pelled to wallow; it is hampered by sena- torial inactivity; it will be aided if every Senator who has or thinks he has views on the subject of money will waive the utterance of those views until after a vote hhas been taken. The Congressional Record ‘was never less appreciated than at the Present time. oe In accordance with the law duly made and provided, this is the day on which the life- saving season opens, and according to the provisions of the same law the season will continue until the first day of April next. From the first day of April until the first day of September Congress seems to suppose that the oceans will be calm as the proverbial mill-pond, and that human life among those ‘who “go down to the sea in ships” will not be in danger. The absurdity of this con- clusion has never been more thoroughly or sadly demonstrated than during the past two or three weeks. Storm after storm has eaten on our shores and from the rocky Barriers of Maine to the vast stretches of southern sand wreckage and the bodies of men and women who might have been saved give heart-rending testimony to the short-sightedness of our legislators and the insufficiency of the appropriation devoted to @ good cause. From now until the first of ‘April all the life-saving stations will be Tally manned, but it ts questionable whether throughout even the bitterness of winter's gales there will be more necessity for a full complement of crews than has existed dur- ing this just departed month of August. ‘That many more persons were not drowned uring the recent hurricanes on the north- ern Atlantic coast is due largely to the heroism of volunteers who, as a rule, were ‘wholly unaccustomed to boating under such disturbed conditions, but the government ‘will hardly attempt to justify its penurious- ness by arguing that the summer boarders at sea-side hotels can attend to all the wrecks that take place between the first of ‘April and the first of September. There is mo reason why the life-saving stations should not be in working trim all the year Tound, for there ts no season when we are exempt from marine disaster. And while ‘Congress ts attending to this important mat- ter it can add greatly to its reputation and to the reputation of the country by agreeing to pay the keepers and surfmen reasonably good salaries and then by appropriating enough money to make the promise good. ——_ ++ __ a? —was on the side of ex-Queen Litiuokslani and her interested advisers. ‘The only per- son with whom the Minister Paramount seemed to have confidential relations was Mr. Nordhoff, and as Mr. Nordhoff declared day after day that annexation was impcs- sible and a protectorate mere foolishness, the people of Hawaii and several other peo- ple who did not live in Hawaii must be ex- cused for believing that Mr. Blount favored royal restoration. Toward the growth of this {dea Mr. Claus Spreckles did a great eal, and when the entire situation is re- viewed it is far from astounding that the royal party, alded by a number of ignorant and easily purchased assistants, should have contemplated the use of dynamite in creating @ revolution to offset that which threw the Queen out of a job. It is grati- fying to note that the conspiracy was crushed by Adrmiral Skerret, who prepared to land his forces and was realy to do very much more to maintain order. Some of the criminals will doubtless suffer at the hands of the law; they should have known better than to put their trust in either the smirking silence of Blount or the blatant utterances of Nordhoff. ——_+ +2 —__ It ts reported that the Hill men will hold & convention of their own at Rochester, N.

Forbearance. “I have often wondered,” said Mrs. Feath- ergilt, “at the forbearance of men.” indeed!” said the caller. “Yes.” In the game of see-saw now going on at ‘the Capitol the anti-stiver men in the Sen- ‘ate and the friends of silver in the House each managed yesterday to score a victory. Of these victories, however, the greater is that which was won by Senator Voor- hhees, who, as chairman of the committee on finance, now holds the situation in his grasp. By a vote of % to 21 Senator Pef- fer’s resolution of inquiry as to national banks was referred to the committee on finance; the Voorhees bill providing for the Increase of national bank circulation was, by its author's action, removed from among the unfinished business on the calendar, and by a clever little piece of maneuvering the bill to repeal the silver purchase pro- ‘vision of the act of 189 becomes a part of the regular order of business. It is there- fore within the Dower of Chairman Voor- hees and he can call it up for a vote at any time. He has said that this action will speedily be taken should there be evidence of a desire to talk overmuch. On the House side the silver minority chuckles over the shrewdness of Repre- sentative Kilgore, who managed to have the rules so amended as to permit the com- mittee on banking and currency—which is controlled by the silver men—to hold a club ever the House whenever it feels so in- clined. The Kilgore advantage is, however, only prospective, and may never be of much Teal value; the Voorhees victory means a great deal, and is of present use. —_+e = The return of President Cleveland ‘to ‘Washington today in fine spirits and ex. cellent physical condition is a sufficient disproval of the alarming stories aff cat concerning his health. He does not lof: at all like @ very sick man, but he does look Hike an exceedingly well man, capa¥ le of taking hold of the management of ‘affairs with @ vigorous grip. eo ‘That there should have been wctfve con- spiracy to re-enthrone the colosed lady who once played the star part in @ comic opera government of the Hawalian, Islands, is not at all surprising. Surroun fed as she was and supported as she is Iyy smugslers, lot- tery sharps and by other varieties of dis- reputable mankind, who have grown fat through the profitable blindness of so- ¢alled royalty. it ts rather astonishing that there has not ere this been a concerted and determined effort to upset what !s,un- doubtedly the best government Hawail has ever known. Not that these persons could of themselves have heped to succeed, for that has always seevied to be impossible, but many of them Pad, after an author- itative fashion, been led to believe that the power of the United States, if aver exer- cised, would move to the support of mon- archy and the sharpers behimi it. This un- Feasonable conclusion was reached from bases that had the appeagance of perfect soundness. The principal --epresentative of the United States—who for the protection | of American interests hay} called to his aid | @ force of United S¥ ates seamen and marines, and who bell ved that the dea eivilization—was unceremoniously justly supplanted by- Minister Paramot Blount, who was Wy -ralded by Correspumd- ent Charles Nord off of the New York Herald as the frie nd of the distressed and evicted remnants of a rotten court. From that time until Uae day when the Minister Paramount def arted on his homeward Journey the syf apathy of this “In what direction?" “They confine themselves to complaining of the high hats worn ay: the theaters. They never say a word abgut the high hats in church.” A Matter of Ibe inition. “Boys!” said the kindidaearted young lady to some turbulent youngsters, “aren't you ashamed to beat that: poor little fellow so; especially when he was only a peace- maker.” One of the disprtau.ts grabbed the victim by the hair, and curmed around long enough to say: “He ain't no peace-maker.
