4 THE EVENING STAR: THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON, WEDNESDAY. ......November 22, 1893. CROSBY S. NOYES...... - Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular permanent circulation in Washin; tom more ti three times larger than that of any other paper. As a News and Advertising Medium it has mo competit. crvLetters THE STAR should be so addressed, or to the Editorial or Bust- mess Department, accordt: Unofficially, but with conviction in every foreshadowing utterance, the Ways and Means Committee of the House of Repre- sentatives announce that the tariff bill soon to be reported wili have in it none of the Principles of protection. Strangely as such ah announcement may sound to many ears, it is not surprising. The democratic Platform, on which Mr. Cleveland for the second time achieved supremacy, denounced “republican protection as a fraud, a rob- bery of the American people for the benefit of the few;” it also condemned the Mc- Kinley tariff law as “the culminating atrocity of class legislation,” and promised the repeal of that law “as one of the be- neficent results that will follow the action of the people in intrusting power to the democratic party.” For the literal fulfill- ment of every promise in the tariff plank there has been continuous demand by such eminent freetraders as Editor Charles A. Dana, of the New York Sun; Mr. Lawrence T. Neal, who some little time ago imagined he was going to be elected governor of the State of Ohio, but who now knows better,and Col. Henri Watterson, who writes “pieces” for the Louisville Courier-Journal. These faithful apostles of a strictly anti-protec- tive tariff! have toiled all the day long and far into the night that no man should have occasion to reproach the democratic party with insincerity and to them the glad news of promissory unadulterated reform must have come with the soothing influences of @ benediction. But how did the facts di- vulged strike several other people? Odd as it may seem, there are many democrats who are protectionists. Only a few of them are protectionists in all the word implies, but there are thousands upon thousands of democratic voters who will watch anxiously for the initial public appearance of the Wilson bill, and who, when it is scattered abroad, are going to indulge in savage criti- cism of a measure that thrusts a keen legis- lative knife into interests in which these thousands upon thousands of democrats are personally and seriously concerned. States that gave Mr. Cleveland their entire electoral vote, not because of the tariff plank in the platform, but because he was the democratic nominee, will protest ve- hemently against interference with profit- able industries. Coal-tields and iron-works are not possessed by republicans alone, nor have the believers in protection for Ameri- can industries a monopoly in the raising of wool or other products that are now threatened by legislation of the indifferent if not of the actually adverse sort. A large mumber of Senators and Representatives who believe themselves to be democrats will be out of harmony with the Ways and - Means Committee on this important bill; each is going to defend the industries in which the people he represents are inter- ested, while more than one or two can be depended upon to combat the doctrines of the tariff-reform plank from the beginning to the end of the debate. Doubters seem to imagine that such a measure as that out- lmed by those who speak for the commit- tee cannot possibly become law, but it must be borne in mind that the President is directly behind the bill, and will surely push it through if all the forces of the ad- ministration can do it. An exciting strug- gle may confidently be looked for. —_+ ++ _____ Minister Paramount Blount’s report is a remarkable production; remarkable for what it says, but much more remarkable because of the important things which are wholly lost sight of in the recommenda- tions formulated and submitted. One of Blount’s most interesting witnesses was Mr. Volmey B. Ashford, a man of great Ha- waiian prominence and an enemy of the provisional government. Mr. Ashford’s tes- timony as to the Liliuokalani brand of Morality is highly entertaining; some of the story was printed in The Star yesterday, more of it is published today. Mr. Blount’s friend Ashford confided to him the fact that Blacksmith Wilson, the ex-queen’s paramour, was the supreme power in the Liluckalani administration and that he was ® scoundrel in all that that comprehensive term implied. “During the queen's reign and his incumbency of the marshalship,” says Mr. Ashford, “he was the absolute dictator in Hawail.* * * Boodle, thievery, blackmailing, bribe taking and general dis- regard of the laws were alarmingly com- mon, and gambling hceuses, dives, illicit liquor dens, opium joints and the wholesale importation of that deadly drug have been Positively traced to his acquiescence for monetary considerations. He kept a body guard about him, corposed in part of fugi- tives from justice from other countries, accused of all degrees of crime.” Yet Blount advocated a renewal of those disgusting conditions, and Secretary Gresham, with Mr. Ashford’s statement in his hands, recommends that the power of this gov- ernment be used to upset decency and re- enthrone vice of the most fiagrantly in- decent sort. Surely President Cleveland is by this time heartily ashamed of the people to whom through his minister paramount and personal representative he has given @ clean bill of moral health and official indorsement —_—~++___ Senor Romero’s declaration that the al- leged revolutionists who have been mak- ing trouble on the Mexican border, are merely bandits, is reasonable, but not re- assuring.

Dispassionately and with convinc- ing force in every sentence Minister Thurs- ton discusses those points of the Blount report that may by polite friends of the Georgian’s be termed salient, and when the discussion concludes there is no longer room for doubt in any intelligent mind. Weakness was apparent in the prejudiced structure built by Secretary Gresham on the Blount foundation, so the downfall is really not surprising. At the very out- set of his reply to the attacks made by this government Minister Thurston deals the once paramount representative of Presi- dent Cleveland a severe blow by calling attention to the fact that although he (Thurston) was frequently referred to in the Blount report as the revolutionary leader he was never asked a question by the agent who was improperly appointed to investigate Hawalian affairs. That the drab “queen” and her intimates had op- portunity to testify is evident in all the publications of the State Department, but at no time was the principal figure in the work of dethroning her disreputable ma- desty given an opportunity to say a word. There is no dubious tone in Minister Thurston’s comments on the charge that United States marines and seamen were used to effect the revolution. In language that not even Mr. Blount can fail to under- stand he describes the happenings prior to the landing of the forcea ordered ashore to protect American life and American Property, and then makes plain beyond cavil the fact that the troops did not co- operate with those who were bent on rid- ding themselves of a ruler who was nothing short of disgraceful. Mr. Thurston's reply tends to confirm the conclusion which the American people have been reluctantly forming that partisan jealousy on the part of the President, personal hatred of Harri- son on the part of the Secretary of State and sectional prejudices against the north- ern missionaries in Hawaii on the part of the narrow and bitter Blount, combined in equal proportions, constitute the spirit, motive and foundation of the administra- tion’s un-American Hawaiian policy. —————_+ += ____ Employes of the Broadway railroad syn- dicate in New York city are debating re- bellion against a decree which threatens the discharge of any gripman or conductor who, while on the company’s pay rolls, is known to enter a liquor saloon. At a meet- ing of the incensed ones the corporation was unsparingly condemned and there were intimations of a strike unless the rule was abrogated. Were the men engaged in an effort to secure an abbreviation of work- ing time or an increase of remuneration they would be sure of public sympathy, but the only people who will side with them in their present proposition to fight will be the saloon-keepers. The company has an un- doubted right to employ whom it pleases and as it has elected to have only men of unques- tioned sobriety perform the responsible duty of running its cable cars on a crowded thoroughfare it can be sure of popular sup- port. An intoxicated gripman contains within his intentionally-irresponsible self the possibilities of wholesale slaughter. The company’s order is in the interests of the many and will work no hardship on any man who is really fit to be trusted with the responsibilities of either gripman or conductor. ———--_ 0 ---—— The best manner in which the holidays can be observed this year is by philan- thropic attention to the distress which is so sadly abundans —__ +2 England has bested us on one point.

SHOOTING STARS. The Perversity of Youth. “Bobby is attending to his piano Iessons very faithfully of late,” said that youth's uncle. “Yes,” replied his mother; “I den’t have any trouble with him about that now.” ‘How did you mauage it?’ “Some of the neighbors complained of the noise his exercises made, and 1 told him about it. Now he thinks it’s fun to practice.” Another Clue. “This Jack the Slasher,” sighed the youth, Who in attempts at fiction glories, “Judged by his deeds, must be in truth The editor who cuts my stories.” He Has the Proof. “Uncle Eben,” said a young man who Was disposed to be jocular, “do you believe that there is luck in a rabbit's foot?” The old man’s eyes twinkled. Putting his hand in his vest pocket he drew forth a velvety rabbit's paw, and said gravely, as he held it at arm’s length; “See dat?” Yes.” “Wall, dere ain’ no use tryin’ ter tell me dat luck doan go wid dat rabbit's foot. 1's got de proofs right hyur in de kitchen.” “Proof of the luck that goes with that rabbit's paw?” “Yassir,” and the old man’s eyes twinkled more than ever. “De rabbit dat used ter wear dat paw is cookin’ in de pot dis min- ute. An’ if rabbit stew ain’ luck, what is?” A Barbarian. He wondered—what a churl was he! Such thoughts were almost sin!

From the New York Sun. The Blount report and Its accompany- ing documents are conclusive upon one point. They prove that the paramount commissioner went out to Hawaii, not to hear both sides and weigh the evidence and arrive at an independent judicial con- clusion, but to make up a lawyer's case and an ex parte argument sufficiently plausible to afford a working basis for the execution of the predetermined policy ar- ranged and planned by Mr. Cleveland and |Mr. Gresham and their administration. That is to say, the Blount report is the result of the policy of infamy, not he pol- icy of infamy the result of the paramount gentleman's investigations. The incontro- vertible evidence of this is furnished by Mr. Blount himself, and to that extent he ts entitled to the gratitude of patriotic Americans. With natvete as astounding as }it w unconscious, the paramount com: missioner put himself upon record as hav- ing reached his decision before he had heard any part of the testimony. On April 6 Mr. Blount wrote to the Department of State announcing his arrival at Honolulu on March 29. Two days later, on April 8 he wrote a letter to the department which, | according to the synopsis now furnished to the press in favor of Secretary Gresham, | “deplores the perverted influence of Min- ister Stevens and Consul General Severance, to which he ascribes the existence of the | provisional government.” Therein is the whole story of Mr. Blount’s mission. On | April 8, at the very thfeshold of his “in- | vestigation of the facts,” almost before he has had time to recover from the motion | of the ship that took him out to Honolulu, the paramount commiasioner of Messrs. Cleveland and Gresham writes back to | his principals, announcing practically the | whole conclusion embodied in his final re- | port of July 17. The weeks and months which he meantime devoted to the pre- | tended labors of impartiality and con- | seientious investigation were superfluous, except in so far as they enabled him to | find props for prejudice and fortifications for a foregone conclusion. As an examina- tion preliminary to an impartial judgment Mr. James H. Blount’s proceedings in the | Sandwich Islands between April 8 and July |17 were pure humbug. He was there as a detective agent, a retained advocate, the maker-up of a given case according to or- | ders, not as a commissioner end ring | to ascertain the whole truth. What fair- | minded person can attach any weight to the final report of an investigator who re- ported at the very beginning of his in- quiry that his conclusions were already reached? _ WASHINGTO Woxexs Unprrwear, TIGHTS ARE NOW FASHIONABLE AND HEALTH AlSO GO WITH COMBINATION SUITS.
