8 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. SATURDAY. ................Jume 5, 1897. EE CROSBY S. NOYES...............-Kaitor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular . amd permanent Family Circulation mauch more tham the combined cir- culation of the other Washington dailies. As s Nows and Advertising Medium it has no competitor. Im order to avoid deinys, on ac- count of persenal abnence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the foffice, but simply to THE STAR, oF “the Edftertal or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor of perpese- . “The Law's Delay.” This Durrant murder case in California may be studied for some of the features of our criminal law which not infrequently contribute to a miscarriage of justice, and are strong incentives in some communities to lynching. That the man is gullty of the crime charged; that he murdered that un- fortunate girl and hid- the body tn that church loft, has been clearly established before a jury, and their finding indorsed by @ court of competent jurisdiction. The governor of the state has had the case be- fore him on an appeal for pardon. He is a Jawyer, and he examined {t carefully. But he declized to interfere with the execution of a just sentence. Several years had gone by, and at last, when e device had been exhausted by it’s attor- neys to defeat the carrying out of the sen- tence, they decided upon this last resort, and so will bring the case to the Supreme Court. This works a respite, and Durrant will get at least six months more time. Unfortunately, the records of our proce- dure in criminal cases are full of this sort of thing. And it extends to cases of the highest relation. The case of Guiteau is directly in point. There was never for a moment the slightest doubt about that wretch's guilt. He was taken red-handed. And, in addition, in his poor way, he con- fessed his crime and explained all that had led up to it. His victim was the President of the United States, and every considera- tion, both of example and justice, called for a swift punishment of the horrible deed. But the procedure was slow. Months elapsed before an indictment was found and a somewhat theatrical trial begun, and it was almost @ year before the wretch, whose guilt had stood as well established the day after General Garfield's death as it then stood, was brought on the scaffold for execution. It is urged, of course, that where life is at stake an accused man should have every chance to present his case. No issue is fairly to be taken with that contention. But where a full and fair trial has been had, and competent lawyers have repre- sented the accused and brought out every point in his favor, and a verdict of guilty is then pronounced, the sentence of the court should be promptly executed. These specious pleas and delays, founded fre- quently upon points against which the Su- preme Court has already decided, serve only ends that mock the adminis- tration of justice, and account'fo some ex- tent for the disposition, too frequently in- dulged in, to try cases in the court of Judge Lynch. “They ado these things better in France.” And very much better in England. In the treatment of criminals, indeed, England shows much we could copy with profit. ———__++-- —___ The Militia Encampment. It is unfortunate that Gen. Ordway, com- ™anding the District National Guard, is compelled to resort to the threat of dis- bandment in order to induce the militiamen to attend the anrual encampment to begin next week. His position in the case is entirely commendable. He points out that Congress has with difficulty been persuaded to appropriate a sufficient sum for the maintenance of the annual camp, and that it is due to the organization that at least 7 per cent of the men turn out. Any small- er number could not be considered a fair return for the expenditure. The annual camp is a part of the training and drill of the citizen-soldier, giving him an ex- perience that should contribute greatly to his efficiency when called upon in emer- gencies. It should be considered, there- fore, as an opportunity rather than an irk- some duty. The most unfortunate feature of the situation is that the fault lies not so much with the men themselves as with their employers, who are not as willing to grant the guardsmen in their hire the necessary leave of absence as they should be. The guard is an institution designed especially for the benefit of the community. it is for the protection of lives and proper- ty of the citizens in all times of danger from riotous gatherings and attacks from without. It may be termed the city’s re- ‘Serve corps of defenders, organized for im- mediate responses to sudden calls. To be sure the direct return for the personal sac- Tiflce of individval merchants and other employers may not come within months or years. It is to be hoped that the occasion for service by the guard will never arise, but this hope cannot safely be made to father a sense of independence from such am egency that will lead the citizens to refuse the small contribution now required of them. Service in the guard should not entall upon the men any unnecessary hard- ships or losses. The members give their ume freely and incur in many cases heavy expenses. To balance this contribution tneir employers should be gladly willing to donate the slight expense of free leaves to 4@ll guardsmen. ——~++e—_____ A Glimpse of Spain’s Army. The latest letter frcm Mr. Pepper, The Stir’s special correspondent in Cuba, gives @ description of the present state of the Spanish soldier in the Cuban campaign. Incidentally the famous trocha is visited and detailed ir the account. This letter does not bear upon the international prob- lem presented by the insurrection, but sbows that Spain's army is in a deplorable state of maintenance, and that the rainy Stason, now set in, is having its usual ef- fect upon the unacclimated peasants of the centinent. Tae glimpse that is given of a “pacified” province is of value as showing that the peace that is officially proclaimed 1s of a most tenuous nature. Mr. Pepper's capacity as a discriminating observer is made plain in this communicatton. ——_+ + + __ If, in the course of time, Texas has an- other lynching, that state will not be likely to tolerate much lecturing from Ohio. —_++e—____ Sngasta as Rebekah. If Senor Segasta takes office, the recall of General Weyler from Cuba will be logic- ally on the cards. Senor Segasta out of office has confessed failure for General ‘Weyler, and so upon assuming the respon- sibilities of office will be obliged to send arother commander to the scene of con- flict. Naturally, the name of General Cam- pos is suggested. But would that ma- neuver mislead anybody? Certainly no- body in Cuba, and why should anybody in the United States be misled? General Campos, it is easily remembered, ‘as superceded in Cuba because of his re- fusal to apply the torch and the sword without mercy. He was an efficient man within the sphere of humanity and civilized warfare. Upon arriving in the island he examined the ground carefully, and disvov- ered that a formidable movement against Spain was in progress. He tried to im- press his views on the authorities at Ma- Grid, but they would not hear him. ‘Their only orders comprehended slaughter and Gevastation, and these he would not exe- cute. His reasons for refusal were two- fold: He would not play the part of @ butcher, and he plainly saw that success could net be achieved by the man whe would. He returned home, and General Weyler took charge. In General Weyler Spain's bloodiest in- structions found e willing executant. Not too many lives could be ordered of him, ‘nor too wide a beit of destruction marked out. He went about the business like a man who delighted in it. Genera] Campos had hed only complaints and rebukes from Madrid. Generai Weyler now received only compliments and encouragement. His Grafts for more men and more money. were duly accepted, and, if with some dijficulty, sti with mfich pleasure, met. Everything he did was indorsed at home, and fer a time he believed and the authorities at Madrid believed that he would carry the day. Pit everybody ts now undecelved on that point. Fire and the sword, it is dis- covered, cannot put down the rebellion in Cuba, and a right-about-face is contem- Plated. What General Campos recem- mended is now under serious and respec*- ful consideration at Madrid. But the Campos plan cannet win. The truth is that it could not have won orig- imally. General Campos was entirely sin- cere in recommending it, and had he been left in command in the Island would have tried honestly and earnestly to carzy it out. But the insurgents would not have yielded to him. Not that they did not re- ‘spect him, for they did. But they knew that they would be dealing with General Campos only for the briefest periag; that behind ‘him was the same 214 Spain of their hatred and terror, and that as soon as they laid down their arms to the humane and high-minded soldier, some tyrant of a civilian, after the old order, would be set over them. And that is what they know today. Recalling General Weyler, with bis hands smeared with Cuban biood, and sending back General Campos, with an elive branch. in his hand, wiil deceive no insurgent in arms in the island, nor any friend of the cause anywhere. That old biblical episode cannot be re- peated at this day in Cuba. The smooth meh cannot be substituted for the hairy man. The voice will be the voice of Cam- pos, but the hands—the rough ard cruel hands—will be the hands of Weyler. And Cuba, unlike the blind and dying Isaac will see through the whole trick. ——_+ 0 —-____ An Opportunity Missed. ‘There may be no more than a mere co- incidence in the fact that Captain-General Weyler arrived ig.Havana a day after Spe- cial Commission@ Calhoun left that city for this country. Still, it cannot be re- garded as a most remarkable coincidence under the circumstances. President Mc- Kinley, after much deliberation, sent to Cuba a special representative for the ex- press purpose of ascertaining the exact state of affairs, in order to formulate a Policy with the greater accuracy and equity. Shortly before the widely adver- used arrival of this official the captain- general of Cuba, in whom rests all power there and from whom, presumably, the most valuable information as to the state of the island could be obtained, departed on an errand of “pacification.” A con- venient attack of fever delayed him and he now returns to Havana too late to meet the commissioner, and to assure him that Cuba was never so peaceful, and that eter- nal amity with the United States has for- ever peen his daily prayer. But doubtless Mr. Calhoun can make his report to the President without having resorted to this well-spring of information. Still, it was a fine opportunity for him to observe the munner of man who now represents the queen regent in her most valued colony. ——__>+2s—_____ Am Undeserved Attention. General Coxey 1s restless, and his re- marks imply that the Capitol lawn is threatened with another invasion. Wash- mgton does not need to show any refer- ences to establish her reputation for hos- Pitality. Its entertainment of the stranger is @ matter of common history. The Dis- trict of Columbia welcomes callers with open arms, but Mr. Coxey should bear in mind that his pilgrimage has a certain retributive purpose which renders it dis- tinctly unsociaBle. Washington fs in no- wise responsible for the evils of which Mr. Coxey complains. This is not a com- mercial city like Ba!timore or Philadel- phia or New York. The men who are charged with grinding down the working classes do not reside here. The people here did not vote to send to Congress any of the statesmen who passed undesirable laws, nor did they help put into office the men who have administered them. Wash- ington is the one large city in the country which in all reason Mr. Coxey should see fit to omit from his itinerary. ———__ +++ ____ No “White Wiugs” Wanted. Col. Waring, while advising the District of Columbia on the subject of street clean- ing, will of course consider the fact that while a white canvass sult may be over- looked in a narrow, crowded, New York thoroughfare, on Pennsylvania avenue it would give the impression of a marble statue which had strayed from its pedestal to do menial service. It is to be hoped that if the cleaning of the streets 1s done by hand Colonel Waring will not offer any sartorial suggestions. Important as the functions of these workmen may be there is no need of fostering a spirit of class distinction and clothing them with a daz- zing uniform that will make its wearers the most conspicuous features of the scene. —_>+e—___ Mr. Bryan must be accredited with a wonderful degree of foresight, if his lec- tures in Toronto are delivered with the idea of having the population of Canada already converted to free silver, when, at some future day, that country is annexed. ————++e—____ It would seem that the Senators who claim to have been misrepresented by news- papers at least owe it to themselves and their constituents to have such slanders as they allege punished. ——_++-e____ The chaplain who delivered a prayer against love of money before the IHinois legislature falls in with a tendency now on the increase in the clergy, to become per- sonal. ———_>+e—_____ It is doubtful whether General Miles will gather any ideas in tactics that will assist the Senate in the pacification of Mr. Till- man. ——_+>+e—____ The public will always regard discord of any description as altogether out of place in connection with the Marine Band. ——>e-—____ The most conspicuous element in Sena- tortal dignity is @ disposition to avoid any extraordinary display of curiosity. ——_+-_____ Only one hundred and eighty-four men ‘worked on the post office today. ———— ee Washington Says “Amen.” From the New York ‘Tribune. The Jesson of the Long Island railroad disaster is that there should be no grade crossings. Wherever they exist they are constantly surrounded with peril and are standing invitations of calamity. They should be done away with swiftly, per- emptorily and altogether, so far at least as this thickly populated and much traveled commonwealth is concerned. —~2. . One Beneficiary, at Least. ‘From the Chicago News THE EVENING STAR, SATURDAY, JUNE %, 1807-96 PAGES, efforts to ferce the Speaker to appoint committees and to provitte means for the passage of the Cuban beiitgerency resctu- tien, but without success. The negro zav- isher Mitchell was lynched at Urbana, Ohio, after a clash between the state troops and the mob, in which two citizens were killed and seven wounded. Theodore Dur- rant secured another respite, his attorneys being granted permission to his case to the Supreme Court of the United States. Two decided shocks were felt, orie which seemed to be central in New York and another which extended over almost the entire south. The Inter- national Commercial Museum wes formally opened in Philadelphia by President Mc- Kinley. At the same city the American Medical Associati annual herde this giving rise to a story that the tribe was about to take the warpath again; the arrest of the guilty Indians caused a con- flict ‘between * and Agent Stouch; the latter was placed under arrest. Judge Simonton of the United States cir- cuit court at Charieston, 8. C., decided that any person may and sell liquor in original ment to officers and soldiers of the regular army was dedicated at West Point, N. Y. Special Agent Hampton of the Treasury Department was disarmed beaten by Cubans off the Florida coast while he was putting the steamer Biscayne under arrest. Heavy frosts da corn, vegetables and smell fruits in the northwest. The silver democratic state convention of Ken- tucky adopted a platform praising Wm. J. Bryan. Foreign. The Spanish cabinet resigned, owing to the difficulty of carrying on the govern- ment in consequence of the liberals ‘re- fusing to atend the sessions of the cortes. After a lengthy cabinet council at Madrid, at which Premier Canovas made an cx- planation of his position, the queen regent requested him to remain in office for the present. Baron des Rotours, a pretection- ist deputy in the French assembly, made a motion to raise the duties on American products if the United States fixed prohib- itive duties on French products. It wat officially anonunced in Athens that an ai~ mistice had been signed between the Greek and Turkish military commanders in Thes- saly and Epirus. The newspapers of Cuba continued their attacks upon Americans and reflections upon the conduct of Consul Gen- eral Fitzhugh Lee. Special Envoy W. J. Calhoun sailed for home. The session of the lower nouse of the Austrian diet was closed by order of Emperor Francis Joseph. The annual meeting of the British Bimetal- lic League was held at Manchester; the report deciared the election for President in the United States to be the most fim- portant event of the year, and referred to the late Gen. Francis A. Walker of Zoston as “one of the greatest economic authori- ties ot the century.” In the District. ‘The Commissioners granted hearings on the street sweeping bids and practically de- clded ‘to grant a contract for two years on the hand-work basis. The Smith garbage crematory, located near the cld observa- tory, was officially declared to be insan- itary. The attorney for the District de- cided that it would not be lawful for the Commissioners to grant the electric lighting contract on the basis of the use by the United States company of ducts in the conduits laid down by the Potomac com- pany. Judge Bradley ordered the acquiital of John E. Searles, secretary and treasurer of the sugar trust, indicted for contumacy. Charges were filed against Warden Leon- ard of the District jail by a prisoner, who alleged discrimination in the treatment of Broker Chapman, a prisoner at the jail; the Court in General Term ordered an investi- gation and the grand jury visited the jail. ‘The National Metropolitan Bank was trans- ferred to its new owners, and E. Southard Parker was elected president. The twenty- seventh annual meeting of the East Wash- ington Citizens’ Association was held with appropriate exercises. A game of cable chess was played in Washington and Lon- don between representatives of the Ameri- can Congress and the British House of Parliament; each side wen two games, with one draw. A slight earthquake shock was felt in this city Decoration day. Prof. F. Fanciulli, leader of the Marine Band, was placed under arrest Decoration day on a charge of insubordination, he having de- clined to play music at the dictation of the Heutenant in command of the detachment of marines marching in the parade. Fire raged in Alexandria among old buildings at the wharves and property valued at about $500,000 was destroyed. Thomas Rob- ™mson, driver: of one of the dead animal wagons, was crushed to death beneath his wagon. C. C. Mason, a prisoner in a police station, committed suicide in his cell. Charles Robinson was killed Decoration day by Dorsey Foultz, both colored. James Lewis, convicted of an assault on an aged woman, was hanged at Fairfex Court House after confessing to this crime and several others of a similar nature. —— ++ ___ SHOOTING STARS. Convincing Him. “There's nothing like putting a man in a good humor and then reasoning with him,” said the improvident citizen. “That Dill collector was inclined to doubt that times are as hard with me as I represented. But I easily convinced him.” “How?” “Gave him a twenty-five-cent cigar and told him to put three or four in his pocket.” The Base Ball Fan, We'll keep on climbing, nor loge heart; It is a comfort sweet To think that we have made a start. We've got St. Louis beat. An Indication. “It’s one thing or the other,” remarked Senator Sorghum with the air of one who is accustomed to lay down incontrovertible truths, “he is a man of extraordinary cour- age, or else he is seeking notoriety.” “What makes you think so?” “He ventured to go into the House of Representatives with a new kind of whis- kers.”” <—— Forebeding. Young Mrs. Torkins dropped her news- paper, In which she was reading reports of Chapman's daily life. “Charley, dear,” she sald, “I do hope you will never do anything to get into Jail. “What put that into your head?” “I was just thinking that if you ever do happen to go to jail it will be drea® fully hard for you to be satisfied with home cooking afterward.” An Optical Iiusion, “It’s a dreadful thing to be as nearsight- ed as Dicky Doddles,” remarked one young womar, sympathetically. “It must lead to embarrassments.” “It does. Yesterday evening when his best friend came up the street wearing one of the new fashioned colored shirts, Dicky stopped short and exclaimed to his com- penion, ‘I say, old man, what a lovely sun- set we're having.’” Reverie in the Senate Gallery, “Ilistory repeats itself;” it’s a fact that's plain.
