Their inability to grasp eur polities—trace dividing lines, account for the divisions, place the leaders, ant all that—has pointéd many jekes. But has not the time come when this is a difficult feat for ourselvts? Have we not fallen upon an era when things are so curiously mixed that it almost requires an expert to follow and explain them? Leavfng ou: the smalier organizations ‘esenting side issues, there are four par- commanding attention. The re- yeblican party stands for sound money and protection; the democratic party stands for free coinage and free trade; the national @emocratic party stands for souné money and free trade, and the populist party for free cotmage, free trade, and government ownersh'p of almost everything. The room for union between any two of these organ- is small. Sound money affords ground for it between the republicans and the national democrats, and free silver the xround for it between the democrats and the populists. But upon the face of things, an imp: able barrier would appear to ex- ist between the republicans and the popu- and between the national democrats the populists. Notwithstanding these differences and agonisms, however, all sorts of combi- nations are on the cards. National issues and state Issues are being separated, and combinations of the most contradictory characier are forming. In one state demo- crats ard populists have fused in opposi- tion to the republicans on the national is- ever re} \ s now izations sues, while the populists and republicans have fused In opposition to the democrats loca! issues.

Only let the stranger remember that the preblem will work out all right in the énd, as American problems usually do. ———.es - w Defend Their Championship. One week from today a large detachment of the District's representativs riflemen will leave for Sea Girt, there to compete with experts from many states for suprem- y in what now se2ms to be one of the cleanest of our athletic sports. In times bast these men or their predecessors have won niany howors for this community, aud today the District of Columbia holds the ‘World's championship in miltary rifie shooting by a record greater than that ever made by any other rifle team. To eclipse that record and to establish one of stil! greater and more satisfactory altitude is the aim of the men who compose the Lrigade team of the District of Columbia Natfonal Guard. Incidentally, of ceurse, they intend to do all In thetr power to de- feat the many sharpshoo“ers who will ZO from many states to the field whera these bleodtess battles are annually fought. The odds are always against the marksmen from Washington. They are selected from a comparatively small 1umber of the citi- zen seldiers. New York may choose from twelve thousand; Pennsylvania has almost ten thousand; all the >ther states have many more than we, for our total rarely exceeds fifteen ‘nardred. Victories won In splte of sucha handicap are, therefore, more than ordinartly creditable. it is to ke hoped that the District's representatives at ‘ea Girt—whether In the team matches or inalvidual competitions—will be more than commonly successful. — oe -____ t the Public Pence. Once more has the class-making phase ot the campaign made its appearance. This time in the neighboring town of Laurel, where, yesterday evening, Mr. Richard Parks Bland of Missouri insisted upon ar- raying labor against capital. The Star has Tepeatedly endeavored to show the folly and danger of such doctrines as those enunclated by Mr. Bland last night. Every- one who loves h's country and his fellow- man must hope sincerely that the time will never come when the two great and nearly related forces of labor and capital shall be found opposing each other to thetr common injury, as they must if Mr. Bland and other Prominent followers of Mr. Bryan continue to reason as unreasonably as they now do. J.abor and capital cannot by any possi- bility be long independent of each other. To insist that they are enemies ts a crime against the public peace and weifare. ———~+ +2 —___ Mr. Watson is becoming convinced that the notification of a candidate's nomination is merely @ superfluous formality —_~ e+ Pic-Crust Promises. There 1s a good deal of instruction in the embarrassments of Senator Dubots, and it niay travel and have its influence in the south as in the west. silver republicans may find it advisable to heed It. Mr. Dubois js a young man, and very crdent. He belleves firmly in the free coinage of silver, and has staked his politi- cal life on the tssue. He seems to have sade no stipulations with his constituents st all, but to have gone upon the assump- tion that every advocate of silver in Idaho, of whatever party, would stand by him in his fight for the cause. As a delegate to A Crime Aga Populists as well as { ING STAR. | the st. touis convention he found himself in position to do something signal and dramatic for silver. The occasion, to be improved, called for nerve. He and his western friends were assured that if they would bclt, the action would have a power- ful effect in influencing the result at Chi- cago. There was a bolt, Mr. Dubois and Mr. Teller leading it. They did not hesi- tate. They asked for no assurances on the score of their personal fortunes, but cut themselves off from their old friends, and went over confidingly to new ones. They had no thought, however, of losing any- thing by the transaction. Mr. Dubois appears to have reckoned without his host. The democrats and popu lists of Idaho have accepted the fruits his bolt, but decline to consider the matter of reward. They have even prepared to make a sacrifice of him. They have fused on state affairs, and in the dicker the pop- viists are to control the legislature if the combination wins. This of course means the retirement of Mr. Dubois from the Senate. May not the fate of the Idaho Senator cperate as a warning among the politicians throughout the country? It is the day for dickers and deals of all kinds. There is a gcod deal of talk in a very high key, but there is also a good deal of ordinary human nature behind it. Men in the lead are anxious to stay in the lead, while men in the rear who have long desired to take the lead are closely studying the situation in the hope of being able to accomplish the!> wishes. Men most anxious to serve silyer are yet rot contemplating doing so at the expense of their own political lives. A gcod many negotiations are yet open, and th negotiaters are likely from now on to insist upon a very thorough understanding. The populists in particular have a good deal at stake. They are being asked to surrender here and surrender there, upon the somewhat vague assurance that when the battle shall Lave been won all will be well. Promises in many instances have been flatiy refused. Mr. Bryan himself will make none. His reply when ap- proach on this point was, “I have trusted the populists, and now they must trust me.” Which is well enough for the candi- date, but not at all satisfactory to the men who are to pile up the expected majority. Mr. Bryan may be altogether sincere, but when the time comes, if it should come, for dividing up a national winning among a hungry coalition, the man whose arrange- ments for remembrance are not of the cestiron order ts liable to suffer. Unless Mr. Dubois can in some way extri- cate himself from his present position he will be a very lonely man. If the demo- rats ard populists reject him he will be homeless and without sympathy. The reg- ular republicans, naturally enough, in Idaho, as elsewhere, will rejoice in his overthrow. ——__ +e —___ Our Defenses to Be Strengthened. Several newspapers have, somehow or vtber, become possecsed of an idea that the artillery garrison in this city will svon cease to exist ard that the treops compos- ing it will be distributed along the lines of coast defense. This story seems to have had its origin In San Francisco, where the tepic of fortifications ts quite interesting just now, but where the chances of obtain- ing accurate information as to what is likely to happen in Washington are fewer than they would be in Washington. The proposition to abandon the Washington Barracks is not a new one. Years ago, several Senators thought !t would be a Sood thing to concentrate the artillery and cavalry at Fort Myer, and to add infantry stuflicient to make Fort Myer a brigade pest, but calm discussion of the subject developed a decided disinclination to make a change. It was deemed essential to any pian for the city’s defense to have the ar- tillery on this side of the river, so the pro- Ject fell through. It is safe to assert that there will not be any decrease tn the fight- ing force the duty of which it is to guard the Potomac approach to the National Capital, but it may be that the garrison at the Barracks will be reduced in order that the guns at Fort Washington may manned. Very few of the river excursi ists have much of an Ide powerful defensive point Fort Washington will be as soon as the plans of the Fortiti- cations Board completely materialize. In the near future there will be In place guns and other death-dealing devices sufficient to render the passage of a hostile vessel an utter impossibility. Those guns, to he sure, must be manned, and it is easily pcssible that the men will be taken from tie Bar- racks’ garrison. There really ought to be an increase in the artillery arm of the ser- vice; there doubtless will be as soon as Congress sees that fortifications and arma- ment do not of themselves constitute coast defenses; there must be trained men, and erough of them. —_— 2. ___ Spain a March 4 Next. There must be a real war in Cub For a Jong t'me Captain-General Weyler in- sisted that the mere idea of war was ab- surd, but he has evidently changed his views on that subject and instead of nati- fying the people of the United States that all is calm and peaceful—as was his wont— he has busted himself in calling upon the government which he serves with so much of cruel fidelity to send him lots of re-en- forcements. Cuba was fairly well garrt- soned when the present insurrection com- menced, but since that time Spain has sent to the {sland nearly one hundred and twenty-five thousand officers and enlisted men. Many of these have, of course, been killed by the insurgents, while many more have succumbed to yellow fever and small- pox and tke diseases of the camp. Now Spain 1s sending nearly forty thousand ad- ditional troops to assist Gen. Weyler in what he once imagined was the easy task of ereshing out all semblance of the spirit of Cuban independence. It is evident that Spanish plans contemplate a rushing cam- paign before the forthcoming winter reaches its conclusion. The Spanish gov- ernment has figured ft out that the Amert- can administration which comes into power next fourth of March will surely recognize the msurgents as belligerents and thus put a stop to intervention by federal power in behalf of new monarchial life in a hemis- phere where monarchies are at a discount. The ruling powers of Spain are convinced that if the rebellion is not crushed before the coming of the Ides of March it never will be crushed and that Spanish power on this continent will almost immediately be at an end. Therefore the re-enforcements. ——- +e = -___ Cornelius Vanderbilt's dower of five mil- liens of dollars will be gratefully received by young Mr. and Mrs. Whitney, as it will enable them to go to housekeeping at once and own a home instead of paying rent. ——- > + ____ By giving him quarters at expensive he- tels, Li Hung Caang may be prevented from getting the impression that the White House represents the American ideal cf luxury. ———_0e The complications In some of the silver states may have the effect of emphasising in Mr. Bryan's mind the advisability of avoiding the crowded cities and going west. +e General Weyler will never he able to say that his failure in his Cuban campaign was due to lack of diligence on the pari of his press agent. ——— sree It is comforting at times to reflect that money can never by any posssbility get as cheap as campaign talk. ——_+ +e —___ Senator Hill will refrain from “rooting until he sees a few mores figures on the score. THE WEEK. The political event of the week was the address by Bourke Cockran in Madison Square Garden, New York, on the money question; being a reply to the recent speech of Mr. Bryan, the democratic candidate. Gold democrats in Vermont, Maine and Kentucky held state conventions and elected delegates to the national democratic con- vention at Indianapolis September 2 In the Delaware democratic convention, at Dover, Eb. W. Tunnell of Sussex was nominated for governor, and L. Irving Handy of Newcastle for Congressman. The ‘Texas democratic state convention met at Fort Worth; there was no opposition to the nomination of Culberson for governor. Nominations for Congress were made in the two districts adjoining the District; ex-Speaker Mudd was nominated by the fifth Maryland district republicans; Johan F. Rixey by the demofrats of the eighth Virginia district, and P. H. McCall by the republicans. The Colorado democratic con- vention adopted a resolution for fusion with the populists and silver republicans on a state tleket. The republicans of Georgia decided not to put out a state ticket this year. The Idaho populists and democrats agreed to combine. A great amount of rain fell in Colorado the past three days, causing heavy floods in va- rious localities; the principal damage has been railroad washouts, which have been quickly repaired, and trains are running regularly on all lines. The convention of the Young People’s Union of the United Presbyterian Church opened at Omaha, . with two thousand delegates in at- tendance. In a battle with burglars at Bedford, N. Y., Walker B. Adams was fatally wounded, but his son, Willlam, suc- ceeded in mortally wounding two of the robbers. An express train on the Chesa- peake and Ohio road was derailed by acci- dent or train-wreckers at Ravensworth, Va.; no one was badly hurt. Two men were killed and four injured by an explo- sion of dynamite at New Holland, Pa. The steamer Oceanica and the propeller William Chisolm collided in Lake St. Clair and both were sunk. A cloudburst flooded the mining village of Mogollon, M., destroying some thirty houses, and causing the loss of several lives. The deaths in- cluded Henry C. Ford, president of the Pertrsylvania state fish’ commission; Miss Flora Finlayson, a well-known opera sing- er, and Ransom’ W. Dunham, ex-Congress- man, from Chicago. Foreign. Emperor William’s yacht, the Meteor, collided with the Isolde, another yacht, off the coast of south England; Baron von Zedtwitz, the owner of the Isolde, died from Injuries received. Dr. Nansen’s ex- ploring ship Fram. arri at Skjerov, Province of Tromsoe, with all on hoard well. Baron Dhants, in command of a strong force, moved against the Mahdisis in the Upper Congo. John Daly, the Irish political prisoner, was released from Port- land prison. The betrothal was announced of Vitterio Emanuele, Prince of Naples, to Princess Helene of Montenegro. Secretary Herbert arrived at Southampton on the St. Louis. Senor Alonzo was proclaimed president of the republic of Bolivia. , Sir David McPherson of Toronto died onthe steamer Labrador while on his way to Canada. Professor A. H. Green, geologist, died at the age of sixty-four years. In the District. The District Commissioners granted per- mission to the Capital Railway Company to connect their suburban with their urban line by means of an overhead trolley on the Navy Yard bridge, on the ground that the bridge itself is not within the city Umits; opinions adverse to this contention were cited from the District Supreme Court by Assistant District Attorney Hugh T. Tag- gart, and other presentations were made to demonstrate that the city limits of Wash- ington include the waters of the Eastern branch, as well as of the Potomac river. The mmissioners ordered the street sweeping contractor to confine his work to the hours mentioned in the specifications, from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. Property owners called on the Commissioners to protest against the proposed Fort driveway, which plans to connect the chain of fortitic maintained as defenses of Was during the civil war. The Comm modified the bicycling regulations so as to permit the carrying of children on wheels. W. W. Winfree, contractor for the repair of the Wallach School building, was tried an convicted in the Police Court for viola- tion of the eight-hour law. A gas motor Was successfully tested on the Anacostia railroad. Mrs. Kate Neil and young son were struck by a train on the Baltitnore and Ohio railroad within the city limits and serlously Injured. John Allen, a deaf mute, was struck and killed by a Baltimore and Potomac train on Virginia avenue near street: a coroner's jury held the company blameless. Maj. Geo. A. Armes, U. S. A. retired, was arrested for contempt of court in falling to pay Ris wife alimony, pending settlement of the divorce proceedings. Raids were made on the gambling establishments in Jackson City and warrants sworn out by John C. Nelson, who formerly conducted a similar establishment at that place. The funeral occurred of the widow of Dr. Jas. f. Morgan, who died at Montclair, J., while on a visit. ———_.
