It must be admitted that the democratic leaders in the Senate are carrying them- selves with a great deal of fairness in this tariff debate. They are playing no politic: They are consuming only so much time as is necessary to make the record clear on the different schedules, and define their ewn individual positions in the premises This ts entirely legitimate, and no reason- able complaint can be made. There has not been in recent rs a better exhibition in the Senate of a subordination of mere partisanship to the pressing necessities of public business. The exhibition is so praiseworthy, indeed, it gives rise to the regret that the spirit was not invoked sooner by the republicans. There is nothing in the amended Senate Dill which has brought {t out. The demo- cratic leaders, there is every reason to be- lieve, would have acted quite as fairly teward the original Dirgley bill had that measure been promptly reported to them. And had that course been followed by the Senate subcommittee, the tariff bill, in good revenue-producing, labor-protecting shape, Would be ready for the President's signa- ture today, and Congress be on the eve of adjournment. But a different, t unfortunate, and upon the whole a course was taken. The ate subcommittee took the bill off to private rooms, took out their knives and sharpened them, and then set to and cut and slaShed the measure until it was barely recognizable. And to what purpose? To reduce protection duties to so low a point as that additional ass ments would have to be made in other directions. Then beer was laid under heavier tribute, tea was recommended for taxation, and the Sugar Trust got @ schedule which Mr. Havemeyer, if capable of any enthusiasm whatever, must have regarded as a daisy. Almost two n.onths of valuable time worse than thrown y to make a Sugar Trust holiday! Under these conditions in the Senate, which so highly creditable to the jority. rapid progress is being made with the tariff bill. July 1 ought to find the Lili in conference. But it is to be hoped hat before ft ts sent there many of the ate committee amendments will have en shorn away, and the measure be made to conform again in its main features to the intelligent, practical shape in which the House passed it m are tee Japan's Trump Card. The plays in the game of Japan against Hawaii are being made with regularity and according to the schedvle of general ex- pectation. Japan first crowded the tmmi- grant steamers with the advance agents of her influenc>. Many of them were clearly beyond the pale of the treaty stipulations urd were promptly rejected by the govern- ment at Honolulu. Japan at once entered a protest against this action, alleging a violation of the treaty and claiming an in- demnity. Hawaii bas firmly but diplomati- cally declined to reopen the cases of the rejected tmmigrants and has delivered what might ke called an ultimatum denying Japan's request. The Japanese minister in the islands, according to reports, has de- murred at certain acts of the Hawaiian republic in the publication of the news of tts decision, and thus beclouds the true issue. But out of his indignation at what he is said to term a breaca of diplomati: etl enough relevant matter emerges to indicate clearly that he will advise his gevernment to reject the ultimatum of Hawali, What next? Will Japan decline to consider case closed? Wil she insist vpen a reconsideration by Hawaii? Or on the other hand will she take Hawaii at her word and play the last trump? This card can be none other than a declaration that Hawaii has trespassed sufficiently upon the prerogatives of Japan to warrant a show of force. Such a show of force must be made since-ely and if followed to its logi- cal ccnelusion and not interrupted by other elements ft means that Hawaii will become subject to Japan, cither directly as a uribu- tary outpost. or indirectly through being dominated by the Japenese influence. But that last card will not be played uniess all present signs pointing to the policy of thi government with relation to Hawaii fail utterly. As holder of the greatest in- terest in the game Uncle Sam will prob- ably prevent the climax that Japan all too plainly plans to provoke. —_~++2—___ A Local Office. It is past all understanding that there should be any questio2 as to the appoint- ment of a practical District man to the pesition of sealer of weights and measures. Without entering intu the merits of the controversy raging between candidates there are some facts shining clear above all fog. The sealer’s salary is drawn from @ fund created by fees paid by citizens of the District and the office belongs by right nd not by favor to a District man. The sity for a seaier with a practical “ige of seales is equally clear. The sealer passes or condemns the apparatus on which the food and fuel of the people of this city is weighed and he should be able to tell what is wrong with a scale himself vat depending upor the report uf a ubordinate. Local merch nearly sDauimous in their deznaad for a practical uestion goes be- ches the peupl>. HOW his machinery r, but his feeling in iy as close or as as the just demand cf the 'Y possible ard should around the integrity tells him the tes. correct working er: ter is not nm importar that ev thrown which be of the scale weight of his coal and see s Geclaration that he is not go- ing to Europe may be prpmpted by a cour- desire to refrain from doing anything might be consjrued as interference vith the work of the bimetallic commis- ston. ———_ +e Aguin, the “Reforms.” What is this crisis at Madrid but an ad- of the power of the insur- Cuba? First came the de- pariure of Gen. Campos with a large force of soldiers for the ‘sland, but it was only for the purpose of putting down a smail insurrection of blacks and adventurers. Then, after some months, followed the ap- pointment of Generat Weyler to chief com- mand, and the Increase of the number of soldiers, until an army >f 200,000 men mus- tered in Cuba. Slaugh'er and pillage reigned supreme, but still there was no war! The utmost of the Spanish admis- sion was that the insurrection possessed elements of unusual stubborness. Now comes the fall of the Spanish ministry, and as the direct cause of the failure of the Spanish campaign in Cuba, but yet there is no war in Cuba. The old ministry and its agents were incompetent. The new minis- try will do the work. It holds the key to the proSiem. And so forth. The key is partly revealed. Again, the “reform.” It is amazing and amusing how those poor old “reforms” are always trot- ted out at a critical time in the struggle. When the result of the November elections was declared, and it was known that Mr. McKinley, being a man of conscience and patriotism, would respect the platform up- on which he had been elected, Spain re- vived the “reforms” for Cuba. The cable from Madrid was kept hot with tall talk about good times and good government for Cuba. When the new President's pacific inaugural was read, Spain, misinterpreting that dropped the question of “reforms” for awhile. When the appointment of Special Commissioner Calhoun was announced, “re- forms” were again proclaimed, and now, when Canovas, Weyler. butchery, the torch and pillage, all have failed, “reforms,” out- ranking all previous “reforms"—revoking and cancelling all other heavenly concep- tions of that nature—swallowing all other “reforms,” as Aaron's rod swallowed all the other rods—“reforms” of the most wide- embracing and wonder-working variety are brought forward to show how well mean- ing Spain is toward Cuba, and how with a good chance she will cause the waste she has made of the island to blossom again as the rose. The favorite Spanish expression in de- scribing the United States is that we are “a nation of shopkeevers.” She borrows it from Napoleon, who so expressed himself #bout the English. But her real opinion must be that we are a nation of gulls. Otherwise, she would not expect us to be deceived by gabble about something which never represented anything that was tan- gible or practicable as coming from her. We are expected to forget that she has never kept a single promise she ever made to Cuba, but has always followed up the perfidy of her violation of her promises with some fresh twist of her thumbscrews. Cuba under Spanish rule affords a chapter of history which makes it difficult to ac- cept Spain's word about anything. Spain as a disciple must have heard of the devil's humor when sick. So it may be sald of her with regard to Cuba: When Spain gets worsted, Spain a “reformer” would be; When Spain wins out, a devil of a “reformer” is she. Spanish “reforms” are played out. ee The Garbage Muddle Once More. The disadvantages of long contracts be- tween the municipality and private con- cerns for the performance of necessary public works are made :nanifest under such circumstances as those just developing in the case of the disposition of the garbage. One of the two furnaces that are supposed to burn the city’s refuse has just been pro- nounced a nuisance by the District Com- missioners, and there opens up a prospect of a long controversy over crematories and methods that can not fail te reduce the efficiency of the service. Just at this sea- son the prospect is fur from savory or pleasant. The greatest misfortune is that the pending contract does not expi until July 1, 19, or more than three years hence. As The Siar has frequei.tly pointed out, the Commissioners have in the past had frequent and ample opportunities to annul this contract on the gruund of non- performance and inefficiency. This work is of a character that lends itself readily to municipal performance. It is best done by the city itself. It is most scientifically done, too, by another method than thit adopted here, namely by reduction instead of cremation. It is ent that nothing reformatory can be done while this bind- ing contract still has force, but meantime it may be profitable to reflect upon the les- Sons that ihe unpleasant experience point- edly teaches. —~+-____ The shock of a foot ball accident cau: @ Buffalo youth to forget his past life. Ur jess there has been a great deal of libel afloat, it might be comforting for a few United States Senators to get together as the nucleus of a foot bull team. —_~ro Ex-President Cleveland would no doubt like to assist Venezuela. But it may be as- sumed that he had more than enough of foreign entansgiements during his term of office. oe It is probable that the anonymous letters received by Mr. Reeed are not calculated to worry him as much as some that have signatures. General Weyler can offer no advice worth considering as to a method of pac! for the Spanish cabinet. ation ———__+eo—____ Only one hundred and eighty-two méh werked oa the post office building today.
