His defeat ated to the in- who oppos the taking of any New York man, but gave way at last in faver of the one with whom his personal rel: were the most in- timate. Judged, experience or g00 at home, ai especially by a qualities, General Woodferd at 3 ought fully to meet the requirements of the office at this im- portant tim at last, interest attaches more to actions the new minister will re- 2 than to his own personality. That he will receive instructions of weight and moment is confidently expected. ‘The Presi- dent's course up to this time has been aecceptel as giving assurance of a firm and definite policy with regard to Cuba. He has manifested a seemly and lively curiosity about conditions in the island, and his information, derived from sources of his own choosing, is reasonably full. He knows that war is in progress there, that Spain, without the drawn sword and the lighted torch, would not exert the slightest and that, with them, the influ- » is exerting is all toward digging and filling graves, and laying waste the homes of the people. Humanity calls for putting a stop to the carnival of blood and waste, and the circumstances are such that humanity can only speak and com- mand attention through the voice of the United States. Should not the President }t up that voice? ‘The Ruiz case affords an admirable and gpinted text. Dr. Ruiz was an American citizen, entitled, while obeying the laws in Cuba, to live in peace and security there. But he falls a victim to the reign of terror in existence, and is only one of thousands of human beings to illustrate the depths to which the Spanish policy has descended. Will the President meet the emergency? Public sentiment is agreed that it cannot with any credit to the country much longer be postponed. — +22 The Laureate’s Latest. Mr.Alfred Austin, England's poet lau- reate, has endured so much chaffing since assumed that delicate office that he probably suffers comparatively little now from the jibes and jeers of his critics. But latest official effusion, the ode to the queen on the occasion of her jubilee celebration, is calculated to bring forth more than the usual storm of unkind com- ment. Literary judges will doubtless find far more in it to condemn than to praise, for it is trivial to the point of imbecility. It jingles prettily enough, in places, but even its jingle halts now and then to per- mit the introduction of a crippled line that deties all scanning. But it is to be remem- bered that Mr. Austin Is very poorly paid for his work. His salary today is only a year, the American equivalent Even the famous tierce of canary is no longer a part‘of the emoluments of this difficult position. England will have to put up with poor poetry if she persists in selecting her laureate from among the minor poets and declines to attach a re- spectable salary to the office or to abolish eltogether the humiliating pittance now granted. he ——-s om Queen Victoria will commaad admiration for her memory for faces if she is able to recognize all the wealthy American ladies who have, from time to time, been present- ed at court. see ‘The Absurd Mrs. Dominis. The protest against the annexation of Hawaii just filed with Secretary Sherman by Mrs. Lydia Dominis, formerly queen of Haw. will probably be regarded as a mere “exhibit” in the docket of the case, sort of literary curiosily with the least possible bearing on the ultimate disposition of the treaty. Mrs. Dominis is in no po- sition to enter the case in protest against action. Her protest is an act of arrogance. She stands today as having voluntartiy re- lirquished all rights that she once pos- sessed to the Hawaiian throne, her act of abdication dated January 24, 1595, standing on the records as a full, final and free sur- render of all her crown rights. To be sure she has since, through her Grand Cham- berlain, Capt. Julius Palmer, abjured this abdication, but the abjuration is not of record, is not official and is indefensible in its own terms. Two grounds were ad- vanced by Captain Palmer in speaking for Mrs. Dominis last February In attempting to recall the abdication. He asserted first that the act of ication was obtained through duress and second that it was improperly signed, the document bearing the name of “Liliuokalant Dominis," in- rad of “Liliuokalani Regina.” He thus pleced Mrs. Deminis in the awkward posi- tion of attesting falsely to a document, for she signed a statement that she acted of her own free will and then deliberately set to this a false signature. But it is all immaterial. Mrs. Dominis is today a private individual, with a dis- reputable monarchical record in Hawall, posing as a martyr and trying to block ihe course of American progress by insinuat- ing In the path of the annexation treaty her absurd references in the first person singular to the people of Hawaii as being defrauded of their rights—throwing herself in as a right. There would be niore force in her protest if it were based on a pica for personal consideration, an application for a pension or some such quo,” to use the phrase now in: Erglish jingoes. But putting herself upon the toploftical pinnacle of her hereditary rights, speaking for “her poor people” in the patronizing tone of a still reigning mon- arch, and falling back upon the already re- pudiated action of the last administration in her behalf, she becomes absurd. Her citation of the act of Mr. Cleveland in the effort to restore her. to power will draw no sympathy to her. It was rather ill- advised at this juncture, when the chief desire of the American people is to forget as far as possible that disgracefal episode which reflected so much dishonor upon the nation. Mrs. Dominis has apparenily not profited by her stay in this country. For this failure she perhaps righ*fully hold her Grand Chamberlain v2 account, but in her own responsibility she stands accused of displaying an uiter ignorance of history and a total misconception of the wishes of the citizens of the republ ——_ ee Japan's Protest. The only note of protest against the an- nexation of the Hawa islands comes n. Certain English newspapers, do not like the proj and it is not properly interpreted in Paris, but only Japan is trying to feel aggrieved. What is the matter with Japan? Some recent familiar history answers this question. When the annexation treaty ne- gotiated under the Harrison administration as signed, Japan did not rush to the front with a protest as she now has done. Many of her people were then in Haw Was she le icitous about their welfare as it to be affected by the change of vereignty than she now is? And, » now as it was then. The is- lands under that treaty were to become American territery, and the inhabitants to American law, and that is al) mprehended. The difference of course fs not in the proposition, but in Japan. Japan at that time occupied a very modest place on the map, and did not enter into the !arger cal- culations at all. against A protest from ier then y of a great nation like would have been ceived But since then Japan has r, has triumphed over China, has been complimented on her prowe progress, und been persuaded to take new view of herself and her Gestiny. She demands now to be consulted about things. She looks serious, and tries to think that she “doesn't know about that." This protest of course will not affect the attitude of the adminisiration in the slight- sinile. been to w t toward the islands. The is signed, and the country indor: Japan may digest this fact in any way she pleas ari At the same time the suggestion s that none of this pother would have occurred had the first treaty been ratified, as it would have been if Mr. Clevetand, with his fatal facility for blundering, had not put his oar in. It always counts double to do the right thing at the right time. And as this is true in the case of Hawaii, ought not it to be remembered 1a the case of Cuba? Whatever is to be done toward peace and security for that island, were it not better that it be done quickly? ——__-+ es Manual Training Schools. These Congressmen who aro disposed to ff at the work done in the local pubhic hools in the line of practical manual training should pay a visit to the exhibit of the work of pupils in this department of the public instruetion now open here. Washington has gone ahead finely along this line of development and yet the pres- ent advanced staye has sprung from some surprisingly small beginnings. It is now proposed to erect a well equipped building devoted exclusively to manual training, and for this purpose the trustees and the Com- missioners have asked Congress for an appropriation of $200,000. This item has been regularly stricken from the estimates, however, and it would seem as though the opportur, had now come to do mission- ary work among the congressional doubt=rs. Chicago is proud of her great industrial public school, which has proved a boon to the boys and girls of that city, who have thus been enabled to detect their own fitness for this trade or that, and have heen well grounded in wage-earning work. The local experience has up to the present been along somewhat experimental lines, but in ten years enough has been done end learned by the authorities to fix the belief that here is a splendid field for just such a practical institution as that in Chicago and some other cities. The tendency is distinctly toward technical tralning, even as the tendency in ali Ines of business is toward specialization. The District's schools are noted for their good work, and it is time now that they should be supplemented by cne of the most completely equipped training schools for both sexes that the country affords. ———>ee—___ The manner in which leading Japanese families continue to send their youth to this country to be elucated shows that Anglo-Saxon ideas of civilization tmprove on acquaintance and should encourage China to give them a more extenstve trial. —__ --+ ee —____ It is to be feared that Spain would not consent to mediation by the United States unless such interference seemed the only means ef obviating a certain and complete victory by the Cubans on thelr own be- half. —_~++2____ ‘The assert:on that the piacing of a bomb in the route of Presid2nt Faure was in- tended as a joke leaves even Great Britain in a position to speak disparagingly of French ideas of humor. —————__ +e —____ Even business men who were out-and-out free trade advocates exhidit a desire to give the contemplated tariff a trial if they can only get the chance. ——_ ++ e—____ The theory that the country ts suffering from an over production of tariff advice continues to be conspicuous. —__+ e+ Mr. Debs’ desire to organize a co-cpera- tive colony is proof of his inability to keep out of trouble. 20 —_ There were only “about two hundred” men at work today on the post office butld- ing. Se Outweigh From the Newark Advertiser, if there are any real grounds for the ap- prehensions expressed by the opponents of the Hawaiian treaty, they are assuredly outweighed by the great considerations of national policy which are Invoked in its support. ——_=_ 6 +o.
