4 THE EVE) NING STAR: WASHINGTO D. C, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1893—TWELVE PAGES. THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON THURSDAY. ..........November 9, 1893. jOYES..... . Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation in Washing- t wre than three times larger « that of any other paper. As a fews and Advertising Medium it has mo competitor. Letters to THE STAR a be so addressed, to the Editortal or Bast- mess Department, according to their character or purpone, not to It may be that the United States will not become entangled in a squabble with some of the great European powers over the Brazilian revolution, but whether the nation is materially interested or not in a later chapter of the Peixoto-Mello imbroglio, the Nation’s component parts cannot help sym- pathizing a little with the fleet of Brazilian ‘war vessels that will soon steam from New York for Rio de Janeiro. The sympathy ‘would be natural and not at all remarkable if it was merely such feeling as one republic | should have for another republic whose | the main | autonomy is threatened, but Feason for its existence and its warmth springs from the fact that the re- cent additions to the Brazilian navy will be officered and manned almost exclusively by Americans. Graduates of Annapolis are to navigate, maneuver and fight for the youngest of the southern re- publics, graduates of West Point will fill such positions as their training has fitted them for, and the crews will consist almost exclusively of trained man-of-war’s-men who have sailed under the stars and stripes. An engagement between the El Cid and the Aquidaban, for example, would therefore be More than ordinarily exciting. Naval ex- perts the world over are anxiot some such fight occur. Great Britain has 4 Men upon a large number of ocean steam- ships that may be called upon at any time to supplement the destructive efforts of Great Britain's navy. service, so their usefulness {s entirely prob- lematical. They can be fitted for warfare @t short notice and would, the presumption is, annoy even the most formidable war- ships. Their real duty, however, would be in the ne of commerce destruction, their | great speed and abnormal coal capacity en- | abling them to overhaul all other steamers and to evade the heavily armored cruisers. A hostile meeting between representatives of the armored and unarmored classes would, therefore, be extremely interesting from the naval standpoint. —— Pohticians who are nearly related to the/ administration and who must to some ex- tent enjoy the presidential confidence now state most emphatically that under no cir- | cumstances will the United States annex | Hawaii so long as the present national offi- cers remain in power. A protectorate is also said to be out of the question, and as these conclusions are indicative of a policy of non-intervention it behooves the provi-| sional government at Honolulu to so in- trench itself as to be secure when official information of American non-interest in their affairs is conveyed to them. It is quite probable that bloodshed may follow the announcement, which seems to be a speedy certainty, for with the withdrawal of all national support from this side of the Pacific the royal gamblers and smugglers will be encouraged to make one more effort to-prey upon what is naturally a prosper- ous country. Perhaps the provisional gov- ernment is strong enough to defeat the sup- porters of a “freak” monarchy—every true | American must hope it is—but should it Prove to be physically inferior to the horde of adventurers who have no interest in the | welfare of the islands there would be an ineffaceable blot upon the escutcheon of the democratic party. A declaration of strict neutrality made by President Cleveland may cause complications of greater moment than any now existing, because the pro- visional government, in its search for an ally, may look toward Europe. Should it do this, what action would President Cleve- land take? Would the Monroe doctrine be as “sounding brass and tinkling cymbal” or would this country’s position be that of “the dog in the manger’? ———++e__— The defeat of Judge Maynard in New York was not in any sense a political affair; it was the triumph of the best elements of both parties, directed by an actively inde- pendent press and the New York State Bar Association. Democratic bosses undertook to pay off their indebtedness to Judge May- nard for his fraudulent work in their be- half by nominating him for an office of great responsibility, demanding unsuilied integrity, and insisted that every democrat should vote for him. Decent men imme- diately ceased to march in the partisan Procession and straightway organized the opposition which was so gloriously vic- torious on Tuesday. Not less than fifteen thousand democrats voted the republican ticket, solely that they might rebuke the bosses who had forced the unsavory nomi- nation down the party throat. The figures that come from the Empire state do not, therefore, indicate a great republican vic- tory, but they do show that the republican party had sense enough and honor enough to put on its ticket men of such good re- pute that even political opponents could vote for them without being conscientiously inconvenienced. With such a revolution as that of Tuesday In full view, who shall say that there has not been a healthy decline im foolish partisanship or that the day of Pure politics is far distant? + + - If the “common people” of the United States have not already ceased to worship at the shrine of Jerry Simpson they should swear off at the earliest possible moment. Heretofore the loudly-avowed friend of those who were said to be without an advo- eate,he now denounces hiswhilom supro:ters and says that the unexpected majorities of ‘Tuesday were “the result of a scare among the masses.” Are not what he calls “the unthinking masses” the same masses that have been educated by Jerry himself? Then continues he: “There are a lot of lunatics in the country who know nothing," and a few sentences further on in his remarkable in- terview he shows that these lunatics are the very folks whom he has been screech- img to for the past vear or so. Is this a confession of such effect as would naturally follow a campaign by Jerry and his fellow calamity howlers? —_-+ + Ir “me trolley could but be made to sup- Plant the soot-beiching locomotive in transit between cities, as has been suggested, in- stead of trying to force itself, because of its cheapness, into the crowded cities, it might be made an actual benefit to the Pub- lc, instead of the menace to life that it Row unquestionably is. +o. Voters have evinced a merciless dispo- sition to step on Jerry Simpson's unpro- tected corns. —_——_> +o ____ Of vital importance in every city is the Question of the relations of corporations to the municipal government, espec: corporations have fran 3 which a ize them to furnish a certain s. ‘vice w is essential in the life of a modern city.

There is another phase of this same con- test now going on in Kansas City, Mo. The| company owning the water works that sup- ply the city have been trying to induce the city to renew their franchise. To this prop- osition the people object, and it is proposed that such arrangements be made in the fu- ture in regard to the water supply that the city will eventually. own the plant and be independent of the tyranny of corporations that perform a public service with the sin- gle view of their private good. ———_+ += -_—__ Much has been said about London journ- alism in a spirit that was more jocose than kind. But London journalism has sedate- ly plodded along regardless of the flings that have been made at it for many years past. Possibly they are among the things | that will be noted when their turn comes, but hitherto the attitude of the British | has been one of serene dignity, absolutely | undisturbed by the often unduly exciting | influences of current events. Yet a change seems to be coming over English news- paper work, for the London Times scores a scoop on American journalists by in- forming the world that “Mr. Cleveland may now think it advisable to break with | Tammany and discard Mr. Hornblower. | We are safe in sxying that this item has | not appeared in auiy American newspaper. | The London Times has a great and giorl- ous monopoly on the information, and it | is reassuring to note that in its pursuit of) exclusive news it has completely grasped | the essential idea of sensational journalism | without doing anything that can shock | anybody's sensibilities. — —-- + oe _ Of the many elements that combined to overthrow “Boss” McLaughlin in King’s county none are more deserving of the credit that should be freely distributed where it is due than the Germans. Every- | | thing that the “ring” could do to capture the German vote proved futile and when smooth promises were unavailing threats | also lacked force. Very many of the Ger- mans who came here to find homes were seel after a better form of government than that under which they had been reared.

His Course Clear. “It yez had been in Ohio doorin’ th’ elec- | tion,” said Mr. Dolan to a fellow workman, | “how would yez hev voted?” | “Arrah, now,” said McManus, “‘twould hov been a shtruggle, but Oi could ov seen | me way. ‘Larry Neal’ is a shtrong combi- nation, but Oi'd niver hov gone back on a mon that carries ‘Mc’ on his callin’ carrud.” “Oh, what's the matter with Rio?” A voice falls on the quiet, The punster bold Retains his hold And murmurs, “She's all Riot.” An Apt Ilustration. “Tommy,” said the teacher, “do you | know what the word ‘foresight’ means?” Yes'm. “You may do so.” { “Last night my mamma told the doctor |he might as well call around and see me Thanksgiving night.” One Comfort.

There is nothing whatever standing to their credit. They cannot afford a single escapade. Their per- formances in this state, tierefore, surpass- ing anything In American history in audaci- ty and atrocity, must be set down as iittle short of insane. The open alliance of the governor and the two Senators with the criminal classes for criminal purposes is surely an unprecedented incident in Ameri- can polities. We believe that it would have been the highest wisdom even from the merely party point of view for Mr. Cleve- nd to have more openly dissociated him- If from these moral Yahoos, and to have ore openly discarded their methods. That he disapproved of them we do not doubt, but there are so mamy uncharitable people among those who voted for him in 1892, ——- Boss MeKane Was Afraid.
