The dispatches from Indianapolis show that the men engaged In the third party movement are expecting a deliverance from Mr. Cleveland on the subject. It may not come until the convention's work is com- pleted and ptesented to the country, but that, it is considered, will be soon enough. ‘The expectation is entirely reasonable. The convention will not only define democracy, but will indorse Mr. Cleveland's democracy as being of the true type, and to that ex- tent be a defense of him against his ene- mies. Why, it is asked, should he not take notice of so friendly and flattering a de- monstration in his behalf, and in doing so improve the opportunity to address the country on the issues of the Gay? It has several times been remarked as strange that no energetic championship of Mr. Cleveland was undertaken at Chicago. Of course, everything that was said against the policy pursued by the majority was in- directly a championship of him, and Sena- tor Hill did ask for a vote of indorsement of the ad: istration, which was refused. But nobody took the field there as dis- tinctly insisting that Mr. Cleveland as President had met all of his obligations, and, instead of the censure, was entitled to the approval of the convention. ‘The explanation offered is that as soon as Mr. Cleveland's friends arrived on the ground and had sounded the sentiment cf the southern and western men, they saw that the pressing of Mr. Cleveland by name upon the attention of the convention would result only in attacks on him, and so they forbore. There was trouble enough with- out that. Anyhow, it is said, these men could even then understand that another convention would be necessary, and re- solved to reserve their fire until they could hope to deliver it the most effectively. This they now are on the eve of doing. That Mr. Cleveland, in whatever he says, will £0 straight to the point is confidently predicted. It is known that he feels deeply the attitude in which both his administra- tion and the party have been placed by the teago convention, and sincerely believes that the country would suffer greatly by the success of Mr. Bryan as the represen- tative of the platform upon which he stands. Nobody, of course, could be ex- pected to state the President's case quite so effectively as he himseif; and when he takes up his pen for that purpose he is Likely to do the subject full justice. But even more important than this talk about Mr. Cleveland is the report that at an early day after the President has spoken Mr. Carliste will appear on the stump and reply to his critics. He is the subject really of more criticism than Mr. Cleveland. In- terpretations of hia speeches which he has repeatedly denounced as misleading are still in use, and Mr. Bryan himself is now an offender. He has been quoting from and commenting on Mr. Carlisle’s financial de- liverances during his tour through upper New York, and charging in effect, as others have done, that Mr. Caritsle in his present attitude on the money question is at wide variance with an earlier attitude. rlisle is known to be sensitive on that point, and to hold that a just exami- nation of his recerd acquits him of the charge. In any speech he now may make, therefore, he may be expected to address himself both to that matter and to the Whole financial question of the day. He is a@ speaker of unusual power, and his ap- pearance in the arena in any part of the country, and particularly in Illinois, In- diana and Kentucky, will add great zest and interest to the campaign. eo ____ The Commissioners and Day's Labor. In view of the favorable attention given last winter by the Senate District commit- tee to the bill proposing the substitution of the day-labor system in several depart- ments of munictpal administration in the District for the ccntract system now so genersily in vogue, it 1s probable that the Commissioners will have little difficulty in persuading that body, at least, to grant them the authority to erect school houses ard other public buildings by day’s labor during the next fiscal year. The announce- ment hat they have decided to make the effort to secure this permission will be un- Welcome news, of course, to the men who have thriven under the contract system. On the other hand, the great body of cit!- zens will unquestionably be pleased, for there is a strong and a growing belief that better results can be accomplished by mu- nicipal werk, especially in this direction, and The Star has repeatedly urged that the powers of the Commissioners be extended to this end. There are many features in the present system that are obnoxious, not only to the taxpayers and the officials but to the laboring classes themselves, and it is significant that the influence of the local organizations of workingmen has been thrown squarely in favor of the plan of performing much if not most of the city’s work by day's labor. ——_-+++___ Colonel Watterson’s statement that it is impossible to become intoxicated on Swiss wine will be received by his fllow-citizens as a gratifying assurance that he is still a loyal Kentuckian. —_++e—_____ One of the leading objects of the dele- gates assembled at Indianapolis seems to be to protect their interests in the “I am @ democrat” copyright. ———_—_ += The Rumor as to Baron Fava. The rumor of the recall of Baron Fava, the Italian minister, upon the ground that he has not been sufficiently active in press- ing the investigation of the recent lynching of Italian subjects in Louisiana, seems to have no warrant. A similar story, it is to be recalled, was put out at the time of the Mafia trouble in New Orleans several years ago, and Baron Fava did, pending the settlement of that question, make a visit to Italy, which was understood to heve been suggested by his government for the purpose of an explanation of the ¢cndition of things here, and this served as the basis for a good deal of gossip. But, sharp as some of the ccrrespondence be- tween the two governments was on that -THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY; SEPTEMBER 3, 1890-TWELVE PAGES, subject, diplomatic relations were nat brok- en off, and Baron Fava, after visit home was over, returned to his post here. A story like this would not live a day if it were not true that other foreign min- isters at this capital have suffered at home by reason of the inability of their gov- errments to grasp the workings of the machinery of this government. Senor Muruaga, the immediate predecessor of Seror de Lome, retired from his post largely because of Spanish criticism of hig course in the Allianca affair. And yet, as the matter appears here, there was no justice wratever in that criticism. Senor Mvruaga could not have stayed Secretary Gresham's hand had he tried. He did wkat he could, and as much as anybody else could have done, toward supporting the Spanish side of that episode. But he could not win, because Spain had no case. The United States was in the right, and Spain subsequently acknowledged the fact. But not in time to enable Senor Muruaga to save his bacon. Mavroyeni Bey, the Turkish minister, after ten years’ service here, is retiring under circumstances beclouded with a good deal of gossip. It was stated in the news- papers last winter during the debates in Congress on the Armenian massacres that the Turkish government was displeased with its representative here because of the freedom of that discussion at the expense of Turkey. It seemed to feel that had he been a little more active and aggressive in bis communications with the State De- Fartment Congress might have been muz- zled. Then the rewspapers commented with severity on Turkey's attitude, and a number of them, including The Star, were put on the black list in that country. All of this appeared ridiculous enough here. Mavroyent Bey was no more to be expected to control or even influence public senti- ment in the United States on the subject of Armenia than to submit an amendment to the Constitution. But he has been re- called. Judged from the American stand- point, he has been a very efficient man for his country here. He 1s personally one of the most popular members of the diplo- matic corps, and that is a full half of the diplomat’s game. There would be little excuse for tmpa- tience on the part of the Italian govern- ment with its minister here about the pres- ent matter. It is, so far as diplomacy goes, analogous in every way to the New Orleans matter, and about that Mr. Blaine wicte one of the clearest and strongest letters he ever penned. In that letter Mr. Blaine made it entirely plain to Italy and to all countries that the United States wculd not be unduly hurried in the trans- action of business, nor forced in any cir- cumstances to proceed by any but its own forms. He explained the forms in use here, and showed both their completeness and necessity. If they have mislaid this letter at Rome, or forgotten its full pur- port, it would repay them to send for a copy. ———~ +o Agnin the Fender. There is something entertaining in the complacency with which the street railroad managers and the inventors of the fenders in use on the local street cars regard their pet appliances in view of the frequency with which these devices fail to fender. A few days ago The Star published a long article reflecting the entire satisfaction cf not only the rafiroad and fender people, but the authorities as well, with pres- ent conditions. Tuesday evening the latest accident occarred. A wheelman chanced to steer in front of a cable car in Georgetown and was run down. According to the theory of its construction, the fender should have picked him up and pushed him along in front of the car. Instead, it rode over him and passed him back to the wheel- guard, the last defense. This in turn pin- ned him down, and, had it not been that the gripman managed to stop his car ex- actly at this juncture, doubtless the man would have been maimed or perhaps killed. By a marvel he escaped from the fender and the wheelguard with no more scrious injury than damage to his clothing. It ap- pears that the fenders and wheel-guards are extirely @atisfactory to everybody ex- cep the people who are so unfortunate as to get in front of them. fs Oo The Indianapolis candidate will havé some reason to suspect that he is more of a theory than a condition.
