But that is done in the case of aliens. Why not, therefore, in the case of citizens? To apply the proceeding in the of citizens would bring the matter di- home, and it might serve to increase the vigilance of officers and restrain the violence of loeal passion. At any rate, it is entirely clear that if ¢ and children of an Italian, a Chinaman, or a subject of any other gov- ernment, who loses his life at the hands of a mob in this country, are entitled to what is compensation for the loss of their bread- winner, » should the widow and chi dren of any citizen be remembered who may have been forced to travel the same haed road. —___~ee ‘The Alexandria County Prosecutions. ‘this seems a solution culty, thus to put ty of a pri etically what a money mer’ if the gamblers’ trials in Alexandria ecunty are being postponed from time te time in order to make conviction more certain there will be no disposition to pre- test on the part of the many hundreds of tizens on both sides of the river who are rly watching the proceedings.

Be- tween the two nations there is little in Mr. ! cemmon and from the present outlook ‘it is unlikely that there will ever come a turn of the wheel of international politics to place the countries either in intimate re- lation or strong antagenism. The United States has never extended its.zone of active political interest beyond the Ha- waliian Islands on the west except in the isolated case of Samoa and has left Asia to the disputes of the European Powers. Hence Earl Li's visit to these shores Is to be regarded as but a friendly call, partly of curiosity and, inismuch as his route home carries him across this continent, largely of necessity as well. England, France and Ger- many are even now mildly agitated «ver the significance cf his coming and his go- ing, while Russia keeps a watchful and perhaps a distrustful eye en the globe- trotting of Chiaa’s special ambassador. Here, however, there is freedom from the responsibilities of a “mission.” Earl Li is sightseeing and doubtless at the banquet last night he spoke from his heart in ex: pressing zrati for the welcome exte ed to him, admiration for American insti- tutions, and the hop> that he may carry = impressions net alone, as he additions s store of knowledge of the fruits of western civilization, but as shtening the millions he repr ‘of irculeating the intro- duction of these very meins and ends of elvilizition into China and amaly: ing the oldest civilization of the far east with the The modern of the far we: as been rather rudely criti- this country for rem. © been utte concerning our nent the exclusion of the leged to h own labore Chinese. His point of view is entircly nat- ural and even if he has been accuraiely sted and quoted—which under the circumstances may fairly be doubted—there is little n for assailing him in terms of vi ion because on his first emer- gence into actual contact with tie western world he fails to see things except through the political spectacles that to our minds are dimmed with the dust of centuries. Ee The Same Old Sultan. It is evident that there will be no peace in Turkey until the peace of Europe is broker. Reassured by the Indisposition of any of the Powers to take the initiatory step nec essary to check him in his tyranny over the Armenians, the Sultan continues in his course of butchery, more or less skilfully disguised by the somewhat familiar ex- pedient of inciting the Armenians to vio- ience and then killing them in alleged = defense. Or. failing to do this successfull: he arms the people of his capital, or pe mits them to arm themseives, in order that the ughter may assume the appearance of local disturbances that can only be checked after thousands have fallen. But the civilized nations have long ago through these pretense: in the apparently ui the accomplishment nd now reco; oidable m the Sultan by fixed purpose to selve the Armen a 2 pre lem by practical extermination. biame rests with the Armenians selves for their unrest and their disp: to continue the agitation must be adrai but there are few to excuse the Sultan for this reason, since these unfortunate peopl» are but seeking for privileges and r that have been formally pledged to ther That their zeal and impatience lead them to overstep the bounds of caution and bring on them the willing vengeance of ervel master is a natural conseq the Sultan's repeated acts of That some therm- sition 1 nee of faith. dt Were it not for the power that is behind him, the unteid might of the Russian, Abdul Hamid would long ago elded to the less threatening pres: ure of mpathetic Amer and have given at least a perfunctory assurance of good faitt in the institution of genuine Armenian re- forms. ra, ——++e—____ An esteemed morning cotemporary, whose reputation as a chronic pursuer of the in- finitegimal errors of others overtops its fame as the publisher of political news of its own, credits The Star with exposing “a deep-laid plot on the part of Mr. John R. McLean to capture the Ohio legislature in November and elect himself to the seat now eecupied by John Sherman” The Star's special correspondent at Columbus, Ohio-- one of the large corps of correspondents all over the country who are sending inter- esting and reliable news of the campaign to fhe Star—noted the report that Mr. Mc- Lean was to take charge of the democratic campaign in Ohio, stated that Mr. McLean's present information was to the effect that the state “will give Bryan 20,000 plurality,” and that “on this showing he expects to make a stand for the U. S. Senate and to elect a legislature that will be for him.” In other words, on the showing of a plurality of 30,000 for Bryan in Ohio in November, Mr. McLean expe:ts to make a successful fight for control of the icgisla- ture to be elected next year, and undoubt- edly if Mr. McLean carries Uhio for Bryan in November by 30,000 plurality, his own expectation of victory in the succeccing senatorial contest will be a reasonable one. He will have earned his reward, and the Bryan vote will show that the silverite$ in Ohio will be in a position to be able to re- ward him. The Star's correspondent did not say that an Ohio legtslatuce was to be elected in November, and our esteemed con- temporary, if it will subs‘itute petty fault- finding for news, must apply its inicroscope to something else than this imazinary error. Se There will be a general observance of Labor day next Monday by the local © ganizations of werkingmen. Two main f tures are planned for the day. The Central Labor Union has arranged for a para which it is expected that fully two thou: ard of the workingmen affiliated with that boay will appear. ‘The F: m of Laber ard District embly, Number 66, of the Knights of Labor, have decided to mark the day in a different manner, by an outing at a river resort, where relaxation and en- joyment will rule.

Palmer of Illinois for President on the first ballot and Gen. Simon B, Buckner for Vice President. ‘The ballot resulted 757 1-2 for Palmer and 1241-2 for Bragg. A platform was adopted declaring for a gold standard and the sub- stitution of bank paper for the greenbacks. ‘The democratic convention of New Hamp- shire nominated Col. Henry Kent for gover- ror, and Indorsed the Chicago platform. The gold men bolted. George A. Ramsdell was remirated by tke republican convention. ‘The government was advised of the seizui in Bering sea of two British and one Amer can schooners for illegal sealing. The em- ployes of the War Department were placed under the protection of the civil service rules. Secretary Hoke Smith’s resignation took effect and he retired from his office, being succeeded by David R. Francis of Mssouri. Mr. Bryan, the democrat: presidential candidate, after speaking in Ohio, Michigan and Indiana, reached Chi- cago. The republican state ticket in Ver- Tront was elected by a plurality of 40,000.
