THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. CROSBY Ss. NOYES. Editor. —_____ THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulation nearly double the combined circulation of the other ‘Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Medium it has no com- petitor. G7Im order to avoid delays, om ac- count of personal abse: THE STAR should not be \ressed any individual connected with the of- The Star believes 'n clean athletics and ‘will add every encouragement to all local endeavors in that direction. For many years The Star has given liberally of its space that undefiling education of muscle might be exalted and made more popular, and whenever cups or medals were needed to spur the ambitious to especial ex- cellence, The Star has promptly snd Uberally contributed to the prize-list. From the days when aquatic rivalry brought about the organization that finally resulted in such institutions as the Columbia Ath- letie Club down to the. present time The Star has taken a close personal interest in whatever tended to physical development, the opportunity to encourage in shooting or there is sts, who are paid to exert every sinew that one or the other of the combatants in each fight may be “knocked out.” To some peo- ple the difference between amateur “‘spar- ring” for points and the hired brutality of toughs is not apparent, and with such as these The Star has no converse, but to the members of the Columbia Athletic Club who, desire that club to live and maintain its good repute, The Star would, in all friendliness, say: Stop your prize fights. Clubs more prosperous than yours have gone down steadily from the day when they opened their doors to hired bruisers and the multitude of non-members who, for a couple of dollars each, were Privileged to witness the bloody encounters. A’ boxing contest between men who are club members, and on whom the club would not be ashamed to see its badge, is not criticised, and it is not to be compared with such affairs as the one truthfully reported in yesterday's Star. Some of the apologists for the Wednesday evening fights insist that the exhibition complained of was tame alongside of some that preceded it. Such statements are true, as The Star is in- formed, but the fact that more brutal and bloody encounters than the one described have taken place there only makes the sit- uation worse. The club which so far discountenanced hired pugilism as fo refuse to permit John L. Sullivan to give a sparring exhibition before it cannot afford for its good repute to be the patron of brutal exhibitions by hired bruisers, attractive especially to those habitues of jackson City who are able to raise the two dollars a‘mission fee. The Star is and has always been interested in the Columbia Athletic Club, anj it will aid it in every legitimate way to prosper if the club will only refrain from touching pitch. oe In the universal and enthusiastic praise of Admiral Benham and the practically unanimous condemnation of Minister Willis and Minister Blount is evidence of living Americanism, of the existence of that wholesome patriotic spirit which has been in a more or less cataleptic condition for several years. Now thoroughly aroused, this sentiment is doing good work in the educating of those wno imagined, perhaps, that the coming of immigrative and often unassimilated hosts had crippled the na- tional idea and blunted its sensibilities. It is undoubtedly true that the present generation has been too local in its efforts to promote material welfare; that the city or state received an undue share of atten- tion, and that national affairs were re- garded as of no more than secondary im- pertance. But beneath the surface was a broader feeling, and when the administra- tion's un-American Hawaiian policy be- came known there was an almost un- broken chorus of righteous and disapprov- ing groans from American lungs and throats. That the national reproof was not hasty or unjust was shown yesterday when Most of the great multitude in the House of Representatives indulged in sounding ap- plause at Thomas Brackett Reed’s sarcas- tic reference to the administration's effort to restore a barbarian queen. As to Ad- wmiral Benham’s manly conduct at Rio there is no difference of opinion among Ameri- cans; his method of declaring a principle and upholding the nation’s dignity is ap- Proved from ocean to ocean, and wherever the stars and stripes proclaim the pres- @mce of American citizens. Americanism is very much alive just now. ——+ e+ ___ ‘The buildevs of the Wilson tariff bill now B@wait with no irconsiderable amount of trepidation the appearance in the Congres- sional arena of Representative Lemuel Eli Quigg. Among many things promised by Mr. Quigg in the course of his successful campaign was the smashing of the Wilson bill. When or how or where or by what means the promise will be made good is the Present mystery and the cause of much tariff-reform nervousness. The complete destruction of a measure that went through the House by a vote of 204 to 140 and is therefore out of Mr. Quigg’s domain for the Dresent is a contract of tremendous mag- mitude—large enough to affright an ex- Perienced legislator—but Lemuel will not shrink from the task he cut out for him- self. Keep your eye on the only straightout Fepublican elected to Congress by a New York city district in fourteen years! reo. The Senate will now engage in a masterly effort in the direction of cumulative tes- timony on the Wilson bill. ee ___ Esop’s satyr, who threw his guest out of doors because he declared his ability to blow first hot and then cold, would be puz- zled to devise a fitting punishment for those members of the House Committee on For- eign affairs who are responsible for what is known as the McCreary Hawaiian reso- lution. To characterize that measure as extraordinary is to speak with excessive mildness. Starting out with the unproven | or disproven charge which accused Minister Stevens of aiding in the rebellion “and set- ting up in its place a provisionai govern- Ment not republican in form,” the resolu- tion goes on to say that “we heartily ap- rove the principle announced by the Presi- dent of the United States that interference with the domestic affairs of an independent nation is contrary to the spirit of Ameri- can institutions.” How the authors of and believers in this sound principle are going to reconcile it with the conduct of the ad- ministration they are endeavoring to de- fend, is indeed a mystery—an enigma that staggers intellect and compels even the shrewdly thoughtful to wonder whether there is meaning in words. What sensible American but will laugh, internally at least, when he hears ex-Minister Stevens | unjustly condemned for aiding in the es-| tablishment of a government “not republi- can in form,” while President Cleveland— Who used his utmost endeavor to overthrow decency and re-enthrone a degraded mock- ery of a queen—is lauded? For the sake of argument let it be ad- mitted that John L. Stevens was guilty of @li that has been charged against him; that he gave aid and comfort to the Am:2rican Fevolutionists whose rights were endan- gered by the most corrupt of governments; that by his assistance a comic-opera dy- Rasty was terminated and succeeded by men who hated fraud and were earnest in their opposition to the monarchy-petted lot- tery and opium ‘in, Suppose his of- fense as heinous as these specifications, and yet is he more blameworthy than the Presi- Gent of the United States, who through a new “interference with the domestic affairs of an independent nation” sought to undo the great good that had been accomplished, and who, “contrary to the spirit of Ameri- can institutions,” prostrated himself at the feet of barbarous royalty in the shape cf the copper-colored Mrs. Dominis? Is it possible that clear-minded men can approve President Cleveland's vocal principle “that interference with the domestic affairs of an independent nation is contrary to the spirit of American institutions” and at the same time shut their eyes to the fact that this same President sent to the Hawaiian Is- lands, first, a private spy, who was given power to command the United States forces at Honolulu, and then a properly appointed minister—both of them instructed to inter- fere to an unheard of extent with the do- mestic affairs of a government which had been officially recognized by this nation end with which we were at peace? The principle which the President is said to have announced is sound, and it is for violating that very principle that he has been blamed by the American people. If he had merely withdrawn the annexation treaty, recalled and rebuked Stevens, and announced the quoted principle, there would have been no general and non-partisan criti- cism of his course. Stevens would have de- fended himself as not guilty of the alleged interference, and the issue would have been one of fact, with Stevens on the defensive and the President right in principle, what- ever the result of the trial of Stevens at the bar of public opinion. But the President did not stop there. Condemning the alleged interference of Stevens, he proceeded to interfere himself in a manner far more grossly un-American than that with which Stevens was accused. The McCreary reso- lution should logically be amended to read: “We heartily approve the principle an- nounced by the President of the United States that interference with the domestic affairs of an independent nation is contrary to the spirit of American institutions, and we therefore heartily disapprove the acts of the President of the United States,. threat- ening an un-American interference with the domestic affairs of the recognized govern- ment of Hawall, as grossly in violation of this principle.” ————+es—____ Every governmental effort that promotes intimacy between the people and those forces by which the nation is immediately controlled is unquestionably wise. Every movement that interests the citizen in the workings of the national executive ma- chinery is deserving of statesmanlike con- sideration and popular support. Inspired information is to te effect that “where your treasure is, there will your heart be also,” and the scriptural statement is so undeniably true as to admit of no argu- ment. Within a little while Congress will find out that the administration of public affairs calls for more money than can come in through any existing legislation or any legislation which has been formally con- sidered in either branch of Congress, and as the necessity for increased income be- comes more and more apparent there will surely be steady growth of sentiment fav- orable to a great popular joan, such as was suggested by Secretary Carlisle, and such as, in amended form, is now being so per- sistently advocated by the New York Her- ald. The Herald idea has been shaped for congressional action in the bond bill intro- duced last week by Representative Amos Cummings—a feasure which has been very genefally and very properly commenaed. The logical result of the enactment of that bill would be a well-filled treasury and the awakening of a great public spirit now very much too careless as to the ad- ministration of national affairs. Both of these conclusions are more than desirable; the first is demanded, the second needs no argument to show its desirability. ————_re-—___ The pusilist finds it hard to please.

I was overcome by numbers.” “In war?” “No. In policy.” “And yet,” said the pugilist, as he con- templated the rising lump on his jaw, “some people say there is nothing élevating about this business.’ Hooray for Mr. Wilson, With a laurel on his brow.

A Perilous Populist Victory. From the New York Herald (dem.). Blinded by folly and reckless of the fu- ture, the democrats in the House yester- day committed the suicidai blunder of sur- rendering to the populists and income tax fanatics by passing the tariff bill with its infamous monarchical rider. Since the war there has been no vote in the national Capitol presenting a more fool- hardy defiance of the popular will or a more flagrant recreancy to a party trust. It is a populist victory which, unless re- versed, must inevitably lead to overwhelm- ing democratic defeat at the next election. Altogether Admirable. From the Philadelphia Times. Some say he should be called Admirable Benham. BON MARCHE GOSSIP! ‘High carnival here tomorrow! Bar+ gain seekers will find every depart- ment brimful of “last call” items.
