4 vided that every vote will be of the first importance. If Maryland is a sound money state therefore—and last year’s result seems to be decisive on that point—she should elect as senator a man upon whom in that matter she can rely most implicitly. Would Mr. Gorman fill the bill? ~ Last year, when sound money -democrats in Maryland and elsewhere were forced to choose between loyalty to party or loyalty to principles, Mr. Gorman threw his prin- ciples overboard. Although he had dic- tated the adoption of a sound money plat- form at home in May, he indorsed Mr. Bryan and free silver in July, and worked for Mr. Bryan's success all through the campaign. The silver men hailed him as a most notable recruit, and they still feel so much indebted to him that their leading organ in the country, the New York Jour- nal, advocates his re-election to the Senate. Silver is still the democratic shibboleth, Mr. Bryan is still the democratic national leader, snd Mr. Gorman is still the repre- sentative of silver and Mr. Bryan in Mary- land. And the good people of Maryland ought not to forget it. And probably they will rot. ——__~+ e +____ ‘The European Situation. The European situation has now arrived at its most interesting, and maybe its most critical, stage. Greece is prostrate, and the Turk is flushed with victory. It is the time for settlement, and the powers are the arbiters. The whole case will come under review. ‘What is to become of Crete? The racket started cver the oppression of the people of that island by the Turk. The Cretans complained and Greece took up their cause. ‘The first talk was of “reforms,” to be in- stituted by the Turk—a chapter of humbug akin to that Spain is now writing in the Cuban matter. The Cretans rejected this, because they knew the Turk, and had had abundant evidence that genuine reforms were not to be expected from such a source. They wanted to be rid of the Turk altogether, and to be eHowed to cast their fortunes with people of their own tongue and religion. But Greece, their champion, has been overborne, and now the matter is in the hands of the powers, who, virtually, are allies of the Turk. What is to be the fate of Greece? She is as helpless now as Crete. The powers have her fortunes in their hands. They can strip her of territory, of sea power, of whatever they please. In his demands, as finally formulated, the Turk will guide by their humor. If they but give him a nod, or any other signal, he will exhaust Greece in the way of war indemnity. He will mul- tiply his actual losses by a hundred. The powers rejoice in Greece’s unhappy plight. They have all along been against her. But they may not feel at liberty to put their satisfaction into the shape of such addi- tional punishment as the Turk desires. Something will be due to appearances, and this may influence the powers in coming to a decision. They have likewise to consider the fact that the Turk, with their assistance, is getting to be a formidable fellow. He has always been an accomplished schemer, and his qualities as a fighter are advanc- ing. Suppose he were to become suddenly puffed up, and decide the next time the fighting fever seizes him to take a fellow of his own size. The powers might regret that sorely. He might give civilization in southern Europe a very lively whirl. The consequences of nursing a viper to life and action have been known to be most dis- astrous. —++e—____ It is reported that George Vanderbilt is &cing to Norway to study forestry.

SHOUTING STARS.

WASHINGTON. THURSDAY...... seceeeeee May 13, 1807, cRosBy s. NOYES THE EVENING culation of the other Washington As a News and Advertising Medium it has me competitor. Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed te any individual connected with the jee, but simply to THE STAR, or to Editerial er Business Depart- 0 ments, according to tenor or purpose. Progress for Cuba. The present debate in the Senate on the Cuban question fs, in one particular at least, far more interesting than any that has preceded it. A new note is sounded. The statement is distinctly made that, at last, this government is concerned to a greater extent than merely insisting on the observance of the neutrality laws. The real scope cf Mr. Calhoun’s mission is plainly avowed, and friends of the adminis- tration attach importance to his report. ‘This marks progress. In pro-Spanish cir- cles it has been insisted all along that Mr. Calhoun’s mission embraced nothing more than an inquiry into the Ruiz murder. It Was represented that Spain had consented to that, but beyond that nothing would be attempted. This was known to be alse, Dut the real situation lacked confirmation Dy those in authority. That confirmation has now come, and from sources entitled to the highest consideration. Mr. Foraker’s statement may be accepted as virtually the statement of Secretary Sherman himself, and Mr. Foraker says that the administra- tion is seeking information about the Cuban situation, and has sent Mr. Calhoun to the island to obtain it. ‘The fair inference goes with this that the administration is “getting a move on;” that it already has enough information to sug- gest that it is not doing its full duty by the Cubans as friends and neighbors; that Spain, under the guise of putting down an insurrection, is waging a fiendish war of extermination, and that both the keeping of a party promise and the dictates of hu- manity call for a higher consideration of the question than was given to it by Mr. Cleveland. So that whether the Senate promptly pass Mr. Morgan's most meri- torious resolution, or refer it and detain it in committee until Mr. Calhoun returns, some deliverance of moment from the ad- ministration may be looked for before mid- summer. And this increases the hope that Mr. Cal- hhoun may prove fully equal to his task. The friends of Cuba are asking no favors, but only justice. They are prepared to lay their whole case before him. Despite the Jong neglect of their appeal to this govern- ment, they are still looking here for succor and fair play. We have for two years now been an ally of Spain against a people fighting for freedom and worthy of free- dom. It is time that this should cease. ———_++2—____ ‘The Lobby of Lobbies. ‘The lobby of ex-Senators is growing in size and boldness of operations. For some years these former members of the upper hovse who have set up in business in Washington with their prestige and spe- cial privileges as a stock in trade have led all the lobbies in daring ventures and their services have been generally reccg- nized and handsomely rewarded by the varioys interests that seek to secure fa- vorable legislation by the particular meth- ods known best to members of Congress and hence to retired statesmen. Just now the sugar lobby is in close touch with some of these valued agents and it is high time that the Senate took note of the fact and adopted some means to prevent the growth of a situation that is fast becoming a scan- dal. There are today upwards of a dozen of these zealous workers in various causes with headquarters in the Senate chamber, which, under the courteous and generous rules of that body, is open to them. One of them, ex-Senator Felton of California, was recently mentioned by The Star as be- ing active just now in the interests of Sugar, and he has entered a demurrer in a local paper, disclaiming any association with sugar and forthwith indicating his interest in that commodity by vigorously denouncing the Hawaiian reciprocity treaty. The regular lobbies that have no such facilities as these former members of the Senate should take steps to protect themscives. They can not afford to face such high-grade competition. ——_~ e=____ News From Hawaii. The Hawaiian situation might be quite beyond comprehension were it not for the trustworthy information The Star is en- abled to give to its readers and its ex- changes by means of the correspondence of “Kamehameha,” whose latest contrivu- tion is printed today. In this letter he throws light upon the compiex conditions that surround the native Hawaiians, upon whom Mrs. Dominis, their former ruler, relies for support in her many-sided con- tentions. He indicates clearly that Hawaii of today is ripe for addition to the body Politic of the Unitetd States, and that the @ct of annexation must be promptly ac- complished, else other influences, already at work, will have produced a material co 5 Impracticable, “It’s proverbial that tailors are badly dressed, isn’t it?” said one young man. “It's the general rule,” replied Mr. Easy- BO. “Don't you think it’s a very remarkable fact?” “Not at all. I don’t see how a tailor can consistently make arrangements with him- self to trust himself for a new sult of clothes.” A Rural Observation.

Or- dimarily it is his privilege to pursue the even tenor of his way and let the other People do the guessing. ——+eo—___ By retiring just when hé did Mr. Bayard missed an opportunity to say something very cutting in connection with the re- Jected arbitration treaty. ——++e—____ Mr. Gorman Getting Ready. Mr. Gorman’s fortunes will be in the seale in Maryland next fall, and as a con- sequence he is already inaugurating his well known game of now-you-see-me-and- now-you-don't. He piays the game with skill. His elusiveness, his dexterousnéss, Lis persuasiveness, are points in his politi- cal make-up which have long commanded attention. He has seldom been cornered. For a time his admirers thought that the feat could not be accomplished. But when he tripped in the fight of 1895 and again last year, they were forced to abate some of their confidence in him. Still, he retains @ strong followirg at home, and as he, in- dividually, will stand or fall with the re- sult, this coming contest is likely to de- velop him in his most capable and adrott estate. The chief stumbling block in Mr, Gor- man's way is the ailver question. If he could ignore: that, or evade it, he would be glad to do so. If he could say to the Ne Longer Home-Like. “Mike,” said Plodding Pete, 'm gointer “What fur?” ‘Cause I'm afraid o’ goin’ ter ja! ‘Why, dat’s a nice, restful place.” “It uster be. But look what's happenin’. Dey’re talkin’ about sendin’ brokers an’ capitalists dere. If dat happens dey’ll send hotel clerks ter keep ‘em good natured when dey gits ter kickin’ about deir rooms; an’ dere'll be bell-boys rushin’ around wit pitchers of ice water, an’ company an’ cus- tomers comin’ in hacks, dat dere’ll be no livin’ dere.

While these remnant sales include articles that are soiled, scratched and otherwise not strictly perfect, they also include short ends, odd sizes, broken lots and the like—highly desirable styles of the season’s newest goods for personal and home uses--marked at such low prices as make them rare bargains.
