6 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. MONDAY............November 23, 1896. CROSBY S. NOYES. ‘THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permaneni Family Circulatior much more than three times as large ae that of any other paper, morning or evening, published Washing- tom. As a News and Advertising Medium it hus no competitor. o7Im order to avoid delays, on count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR. or to the Editorial or Business Depart- ments, according to tener or purpose. The Innugural Committee. The virtual selection of Mr. Woodward as chairman of the fraugeral committee meens that the gold democrats are recog- nized at the outset of the administration as an integral and indispensable part of the sound money army which won the political battle just ended. But for them Mr. McKinley would not have been elected. To offset the democrats and republicans who have adopted populistic principles they were needed on November third. and they will be needed hereafter. By virtue of the proposed arrangement McKinley democrats and republicans who stood shoulder to shoulder in the campaign will retain the same attitude in welcoming the President- elect to the capital on the fourth of next March. The fusfon of sound money men is to be perfected and, sc to speak, perpetu- ated The people of Washington in passing a verdict upon the ideal make-up of an in- augural committee are rot strongly influ- enced by partisan considerations. The whole capital welcomes the President of the entire republic. Citizens even of the political faith opposed to that or the President-elect par- ticipate in the welcome and figure on the ccmmittees. The head of the committee which thus represents all Washington has of course appropriately been in every case in full accord with the election of the President to be inaugurated. The absence of conspicuous partisanship in Washing- ton’s inaugural welcome causes the viola- tion of precedent Involved in the appoint- ment of a McKinley democrat instead of a McKinley republican as chairman of the inaugural committee to cause only tem- porary surprise in the community, followed by assent to and approval of the action taken. As a prontinent and public-spirited repre- sentative of business Washington, full of executive ability, energy and activity, as well as the representative of those Wash- ingtonians who without regard to party contributed all in their power to elect Mc- Kinley, Mr. Woodward will be backed by this whole community, republicans and democrats alike, in making the approaching inaugural welcome of the President-elect the most striking and impressive that the rational capital has ever witnessed. ———_~+ ee --—_ Judge Cox's Decision. Now that Judge Cox has put an end to the process that threatened to wreck the valuable properties of the Belt and Eck- ington railroad companies, it is in order for the various parties in interest in this mat- ler to get together and by legitimate means and without seeking to give one class an advantage over another to proceed with the equipment of the road on a rapid transit basis that will give the public a first class service. Tne act of Congress that has re- sulted, owing to the questionable methods employed in the past few months, in put- ting the companies in an apparent dilemma, contains ample authority as Judge Cox points out for the raising of sufficient funds for the improvement. What Is want- ed here is a modern rapid-transit sys- tem, unobjectionable from a public as well aS a private point of view and worthy of the great trackage plant comprised in the two corporations. Judge Cox has clearly shown the majority stockholders, who are nominally represented by a bankrupt cor- poration, but are actually men of wealth and responsibility, that they cannot hope to do business through the courts of the District on the basis that they recently chose for their maneuverings. His de- cision brings the roads face to face with the possibility of sale of the properties. To avert this, honest, active work must be done without delay, and to this end all the Interested parties should come together in co-operation; especially in view of the fact that Congress is about to assemble, and, the matter being no longer in court, a dis- position may be developed on the part of the District committees to supplement the act of June 10 last with legislation that will produce results. There is a premium now set on the prompt meeting of a public demand for rapid transit along these lines. There is the opportunity and unquestion- ably the means exist without putting the reads entirely in the hands of the would-be wreckers who have now been halted. ———_~+ e = —____ It is depressing to realize that England cannot take a humane stand In so flagrant @ case as that of the Armenians, without being suspected by other European coun- tries of dark political designs. England as a reformer has, it appears, a reputation to live down. —>+e—____ Manager Chauncey Depew, in booking attractions for his opera house at Peeks- kill, might show a magnanimous spirit by erving one or two dates for Mr. Bryan, the lecturer. ——_+ «= Emperor Willlam would be very glad if Bismarck would not amuse himself during his political retirement by writing things for the Hamburger Nachrichten. ag ge eee For the present the diploma is relegated to the background. The pigskin has quite overshadowed the sheepshin. a Something Substantial or Nothing. It was only the other day the gossips had it that Mr. Cleveland was waiting on Spain. If Gereral Weyler did not give a good ac- count of himgelf in the field before Con- gress met the President's reference to Cuba in iis annual message would be favorable to the insurgents. We now have it from the Spanish consul at Boston that Spain is waiting cn Mr. Cleveland. Says this watchful functionary: “What we are waiting now very anx- foualy for is to see what Cleveland will say in his message to Congress. It all depends upon that. The people of Europe believe he will remain neutral; I believe he will, but if he should not; then it would ve very serious, indeed. Taking current gossip and this interview together, the promise is of early important developments. But what are they really worth? Why should either power wait on the other? On Spain's part she certainiy has no warrant whatever to doubt the President's position. Mr. Cleveland has been worth to her twenty Weylers and all of her troops in Cuba thrown in for good measure. If she had been able at any time ‘o do half as much for herself as the President under his reading of his duty has gene for her, Cuba would today be pros- trate again at her feet. If he has changed his position in the slightest it does not appear on the face of things. The Spanish minister still has the ear of the State De- partment, Spanish spies are still on the alert, Cuban sympathizers are still under official warning, and Spain is generally having her way. What more she éxgects unless it be that the President commission General Lee to return to Cuba and give General Weyler a few practical lessons in aggressive warfare it is difficult to con- Jecture. Meanwhile the story still obtains that the result of a collision between Generals _HE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 43, 1896-12 PAGES, Weyler and Maceo will be an armistice, with the United States called in as adjuster of all differences and peacemaker extraor- dinary. This, too, would appear to be a bit of fancy. Why should the United States undertake such a job? What would be the scope of its labors? Could it guarantee to the insurgents any promise that Spain would be willing to make? Does it not know, fully as well as the Cubans them- selves do, the true value of Spain's prom- ises about giving good government to the island? Should the United States make itself responsible for such a bankrupt in Integrity as Spain in her dealings with Cuba has shown herself to be? Would the insurgents treat with Spain short of accept- ing the United States as the indorser of her note? Should they treat with her even vpon these terms? If they can force an armistice, they can force their freedom, and ought to do it. All things considered, it is to be hoped that unless the President is prepared to reverse his whole course with regard to Cuba he will do nothing at all. Any fine spun negbtiations on his part would simply invite the distrust of the insurgents, ard add to complications already suificieauy harrowing to them. + = Oratory and Diplomacy. Speculation about the coming redistribu- tion of the federal patronage does not of course overlook the choice dipic:natic places. They are as much canvassed as the cabinet places, and two of them—the am- bassaderships to England and France-are regarde®as great prizes. But, strange to say, oratory is the quality most discussed in probable aspirants. Just as though the Bayard incident had never happened, and the country never been instructed by it, the admirers of popular orators and after-dinner speakers are now proposing them for these important commissions. Why should this be? What conn«ciion is there between oratory and diplomacy? Why should the most important and frequenily the most delicate business be intrusted to men eminent principally for capacity for speaking? So far as the English mission is con- cerned, the ‘dea that the incumbent shontd be a great talker seems to have grown cut of Mr. Lowell's service in the post. As a writer of high rank, and probably the greatest of American critics, he was a toast in England. Intellectual circles made play for his society. He was looked up to as a man with a message, and he was tempted with opportunities to deliver it. Soms of these he improved. But the tribute was to the scholar, to the writer of wile reputa- tion, and noi to the American minister. Whenever Mr. Lowell. spoke in public he spoke so well his fame was greatly ad- vanced, and since his day, by a misconcep- tion of all surrounding and attendant cir- cumstances, some men seem ty have come to consider the Court of St. James as the most desirable stump in Christendom. Is there any reason why this absurd no- tion should any tonger be encouraged? America is rich in orators, an-1_is, prowl of them. But why not keep them at home? Why not compel them to Séck tle proper arenas for the exercise of their gifts? Let more of them come to Congress, or go upon the lecture’ platform, or into the pulpits, and give real eloquence a iift all along the line. If we needed a tesson on this subject we could find it-in the eauioment and bear- ing of the accomplished men who represent other countries at this’ capital. There are doubtless excellent speakers: among them. But they do not set up for spellbinders. They are engaged in other business, and they attend to it with assiduity and suc- cess, not missing the while all the atten- tions to which men of their merit and sia- tion are justly entitled and always certain to receive. But we need no lesson. We know for ourselves what such places call for in an incumbent, and Mr. McKinley could do the country no better service than to appoint to them when the changes are in order men less famous for facile speech than for qualities of wise silence and diszretion. famous —_—__+ + ._—__ The Thanksgivirg season would not be complete unless one or two governors in the far west make use of the proclamation to enumerate the things for which they are not thankful. —___ + e+.
