During the, past few days there has doubtless been great dis- turbance in the islands and every probabil- ity points to happenings of the most san- guimary description. But those occurrences are of themselves merely incidental; the in- formation needed is as to the conclusions reached elther through diplomacy or force. What this nation wants to know is whether | istration, but the nation itself, which, for the time being, spoke and acted through the officials whom it is now attempted to vilify and disgrace. The fact, for instance, that the Harrison administration adopted a certain policy toward South American nations, and toward Hawaii, is not a good reason for a hastening, by the Cleveland administration, to an exactly opposite course. It is not pléasing to Americans of any stripe of politics to have the adminis- tration announce to the world that its predecessor in the Hawaiian affair is a liar, a conspirator, and a land thief, or rather that the nation {s these things, for in mat- ters of foreign policy the United States and not the party temporarily in power acts. And yet it seems clear that but for the jealous desire to get as far as possible from the acts and views of the Harrison admin- istration, the present government would never have dirtied the national nest in this fashion, and would never have rushed to the extreme of the un-American policy of using the republic’s strength to replace a dissolute monarch upon a throne, from which she had been removed by her own subjects, all the world consenting. + ee For criminal carelessness there is no ex- cuse.

It may be urged that poor Carlotta is insane and has been ever since the execution of her husband, but the de- murrer is a weak one for as between an advanced case of melancholia and such a record as belongs to Liliuokalani sensible folk would vote in behalf of the coronation of lunacy. It is certain also that American sympathy and of the official sort was potent im bringing about the establishment and the re-establishment of the French republic. Could it be regarded as unreasonable were .the administration to suggest to President Carnot the advisability of his moving into the suburbs while the army and navy of the United States did its best to put the Bour- bon dynasty in possession of the French government? At first glance the average reader may be inclined to regard these Propositions as having in them a tinge of absurdity but a few moments devoted to Feflection will convince unbiased minds that the distinctions between administrative ac- tion as to Hawaii and what the administra- tion might do as to Brazil and Mexico and France are not so very marked. Of course there will be no serious effort to establish a monarchy here—the constitution is a tre- mendous barrier—but there are Americans who voted the democratic ticket a year ago who are somewhat of the opinion that but few monarchical essentials are missing at this time. —_—r+-___ Chief Engineer Melville of the Navy makes in his annual report a strong plea for justice to be done the officers of his corps. He merely asks that the “relative rank” that is doled out to the chief en- sineers, the assistant chiefs, the passed as- sistants, and the other grades, be made imto “absolute rank.” To an outsider this ™may seem a mere matter of terms, but it means more than that. It means the recog- mition of the engineer officer as a more important element than the officers of the line have hitherto been willing to acknowl- edge him to be. The evolution of the mod- ern man-of-war has tended to make the en- gineer officer of vital importance in the economy of a ship. He must not only know how to keep the engines in motion, to get from them the greatest speed possi- ble and the longest service, but he must be familiar with navigation, strategy, and other matters relating to the conduct of a first-class engagement. As far as danger goes, the engineer is right in it, just though he were on deck in gleaming uni- form unprotected from the guns of the enemy. Witness the fate of the poor fel- lows on the Victoria, who stuck to their Posts when the ship went down and were mever heard fro! the men who stood by their engines when the word was passed that the vessel had been rammed, because they had orders from above to run for shore at full speed. There was no “rela- tive” bravery there, no “relative per- formance of duty. It was absolute heroism, and the men who perished with their hands on the throttles are as much to be com- mended as the fool-hardy commander who “%m part atoned for his blunder by going down with the ship in a dramatic attitude. It means so little, this difference between Justice and injustice, where the pay of am officer is not in question, that it is really surprising that this petition in behalf of the engineers has gone unheeded from year to year. ——__+ e+ —____ Aceording to the recent Hawaiian an- Mouncement the United States is opposed to yaonarchies everywhere except in that spot of the globe outside of its swn boundaries ly what the Red Wing doctors did. > + College young men were recently arrest- ved in New York city. This incident will doubtless serve to impress on their minds the fact that before they can, without in- | terruption, be as disorderly as the United States Senate, they must provide them- | selves with the immunity from arrest ar- rangements. —+ eo ___ European outlaws who hold indignation | Meetings over the punishment of the Chi- cago Haymarket murderers might at least have the decency not to try to interfere with the affairs of this country before they are enrolled in its voting population. —++oe___ It is lucky for the Monroe doctrine that Mr. Monroe w: lent so long ago that no political or personal capital can now be — by a reversal of his policy and opinions. ——————~++e___ Railway officials may regard with some. surprise the aversion which Congressmen |are manifesting with reference to the tariff | free list. 1 ____ If Dr. Talmage is looking for a task worthy of his reputation, he might try his hand at converting his townsman Mr. Mc- Kane. | ——_++s—____ Brazil's prospective naval fight is adver- tised as having all the modern improve- | ments. SHOOTING STARS. Practically Considered. “What's the good of Thanksgivin’ day, anyhow!” exclaimed Plodding Pete in a | discontented tone. | “What's the good of it?" echoed Meander- ing Mike in dismay. “Honest, Pete, some times you talk like a reg’lar heathen. Don’t you know thet Thanksgivin’s one of | the biggest free lunch days in the whole | Year?” jext! The voters all have had their say, And still the gossips worry; The next election, far away, Affords them food for flurry. A Question of Weight. “I wondah,” said Willie Wibbles, if the fashionable chwysanthemum will get any lahger?” “I don't know. What difference would it make?" “A gweat deal of differwence.

Th republic has few more dangerous enemies than the citizen or official whose bitter partisanship prevents him from seeing any | virtue or merit whatsoever in the acts or * opinions of a political opponent, and whose impulse, on assuming political power, is to discredit and tear down everything that his predecessor of an opposite political faith has built up. This tendency of narrow and Jealous minds is especially noticeable in its effects upon the republic’s foreign policy. In dealing with other nations, those pow- ers of the world whose form of government permits changes of administration, pre- serve a certain harmony of relation, no withstanding changes in the ruling party, and notwithstanding revolutions in matters of domestic policy. So far as possible, the mation presents an unswerving front to its neighbors, the government changing in per- sonnel, but not in international policy. Our own foreign policy is extremely simple, and has always been so. Unless there has been some vital departure from this traditional policy, it is unwise for one administration | to undertake to reverse the actions of its Dredecessor. The effect of such a course is to unsettle foreign relations, and to discredit in the @-* of the world not the precedin min- | | poems,” said Skilkins. | “Maybe,” replied Filkins, who also writes, ‘they feel thankful because they don’t get | more like them. ———_e+___ The Star's Attractiveness Increased. | E.G. Dunnell im the New York Times. | | There was never a time when Washington | had two such good newspapers as it has | now. Reference was recently made to the | fact that the increasing success and pop- | ularity of The Post had justified it in build- ing a home for itself on Pennsylvania ave- nue, into which it has just moved. The Evening Star, which has been improving steadily for years, has recently made a | great effort to increase its attractiveness by | supplying a larger number of pages, an ex- | tension, however, which the publishers | found necessary to accommodate the adver- users without depriving the reade: of his | customary quantity of reading matter. The | Star ts now set up almost entirely by the linotype machine, and it is one of the very handsomest products of the mechanical typesetter that is made in any city. The result has none of the unsatisfactory gray and indefinite appearances produced by some machine work, and the advertising pages, a combination of machine and mova- ble types, leave nothing to be desired that has hitherto been secured by the use of moveable type exclusively. The editorial page continges to be independent, and occa- sionally it becomes bolder than has been the wont of the writers for that page, which is always a kimited page, in consequence of the demands of advertisers, who prefer the neighborhood of editorial utterances in | which to direct attention to their offers. |Secretary Gresham's Great | Show. | From the New York World. | J.
