It is quite time that an end should be put to the pretensions of Senator Wellington that he in any sense represents the repub- lean party of Maryland in his disgraceful course lately. His boorish airs and his scurrilous abuse of everybody in the party who has failed to obey his dictation have caused a revolt against his boss-ship that is manifesting itself all over the state. The Warner incident in which he used his gut- ter vocabulary In such epithets as “In- famous lisr,”” “creature,” * fraud,” etc., ts but one instance of his vulgar abuse of his opponents. "That the republicans of the state are determined no longer to stand this inso- lent dictation is shown by the proceedings at the great meeting in Baltimore last night in behalf of Wm. T. Malster for mayor: a candidate bitterly opposed by Wellington. This meeting was attended by some 7,00) people, while the meeting in favor of Wellington's candidate, Theodore Marburg, had only an attendance of some boo. At the Malster meeting his adherents, who had been characterized by Wellington es “scalawags and ward-heelers,” used ex- ceedingly plain language toward the junior senator from Maryland. One of the speak- ers, Major A. M. Hancock, denounced him and his methods In the following caustic terms: “This is the grandest and most extra- ordinary congregation of scalawags and ward-heclers—men who can be bought for $2.50 or a small office—that has ever as- sembled in this or any other city. Your presence here is an indignant protest against the foul epithets that have been ap- plied to you by one you elevated to the highest place in your gift, and whose every action and utterance since you clothed him in the purple and fine linen of your high favor most clearly demonstrate that he 1s wholly uniit to be your representative in the United State Senate, and never should have emerged from the obscurity from whence he came. “The great popular heart of Baltimore has grasped in its tender and loving em- brace that noblest Roman of them all, Wm. T. Malster, and is moving on to au imperishable victory which will grind into nothingness that egotistical braggart who has dared to proclaim that, unless Malster gets out of his way at his bidding, ‘he will knock him out.’ “If this is an evicence of the feeling of the voters of Baltimore, there can be no power that can knock Malster out—despite the impudence of Wellington—save the In urging a return to the Dingley bill, The Star the other day called attention tc the fact that the revenue-producing ca- pacity of the bill as amended by the Senate could not very accurately at this time be determined. Now that the Senate is on the eve of disposing of the bill the importance of the point ts recognized and emphasized. Experts have been at work trying to solve the matter but ft is to be doubted if the answer prepared in the short time at their command is entirely safe for use in tae conference. When the Dingley bill reached the Sen- ate it was not only a well considered meas- ure, but it carried with {t a statement showing the amount of revenue it would produce. It was on every score a bill worthy of the Senate's acceptance, and had the Senate promptly taken it up, and pass- ed it within a month, as it might easily have done, the anticipatory imports would not materially have affected the calcula- tions. ut Mr. Aldrich got hold of the bill, and held on to it so long, cutting and slash- ing tax to meke way for an additional beer and a new sugar schedule, that the rters had abundant time to stuff their to the ceiling. And many of done so, with the result of de- government for the first year the priving of some of the revenue the new tariff bill is expected to raise. This is a matter to which the conference committee of the two ho will doubtless STAR. | Rewer and arrogance that it essays now to have a voice in shaping even the for- eign policy of this government! There are senators who declare that trusts cannot be controlled in the way at- tempted; that it is so much waste of effort. But the people do not believe that, and it is with the people the republican party must reckon at the polls. Do these sen- ators care for a pointer as to public opin- fon on the subject? If so, let them consider what occurred at Columbus, Ohio, day be- fore yesterday. John R. McLean, a rich man, with large corporation connections, was In control of a state convention. He objected to any reference to trusts in the Platform, because as a candidate for the United States Senate he feared he would giv attention. A prominent 4 fect of the present tariff law fs its failure to yield s:fficient revenue. The result has been bond issues and much accompanying discontent. Business has been disturbed and confidence impaired. The people have demanded a change, and, of course, a change correcting the existing evil. ‘The new law, therefore, should bring in money enough to support the government, and support it comfortably. The corners ought not to be cut too closely. There should be no skimping. The feeling should be that the revenmies are ample for the carrying on of the government in the proper way. Anything than this would certainly be a mistake. and it might prove disastrous For if, after an unhappy experience of three yevrs with one botch of a tariff law, an impzession should get out that we are entering upon a doubtful time with an- other law, the effect would be felt far and near. —_—_- + +2 ____ A great deal of credit Is due to the news- Daper enterprise which brought the New York murder mystery to a climax before it b ngly monotonous, as is the News of this kind is unpleasant at . and it is well to have it over with as promptly and painlessly as possible. el A Great Mistake. The failure of the republican senators in caucus last night to deal with the aues- tion of trusts is disappointing, and it is fomething that they are certain to have to explain on the stump in this year’s state campaigns. The reason given for non-action—that It is too late in the debate to bring forward an amendment which would lead to pro- tracted discussion—is simply no reason at all. Who would consume time for the pur- pose of defeating such an amendment? The populists and the democrats declare themselves against trusts. Are there any Fepublican senators who would challenge an amendment on the subject prepared by the judiciary committee of that body? The bare suggestion that such an amendment would lead to a protracted discussion quickens curiosity, and makes one wish all the more strongly to see the matter pre- sented. Who would come forward as the open and confessed champion of trusts at @ time when those organizations are so defiant of both the law and the proprieties? It is said that the provision in the Gor- man-Wilson bill bearing upon the subject will be continued. That assurance is quite too jocular for a sedate body like the Sen- ate. Why continue a provision which from the day of its enactment has been a dead letter? Why talk about a provision which wes never intended to be anything but a dead letter? The Gorman-Wilson bill was in a large part made by trusts, and not a Aine of it should be formally indorsed by this Congress. Those parts of the bill which have been executed have proved to be disastrous to the country; the paris which seemed to have merit in them have been inoperative. Imagine the effective- ness of continuing a provision against trusts enacted three years ago, when the Sugar Trust in thet ume has grown so in be put in the insincere attitude of attack- ing his own crowd. Mr. McLean could con- trol his Heutenants who were in charge of the work of the plaform, but on that point he could not control the body of the con- vention. A declaration against trusts was demanded, and by the convention was adopted. Is Mr. Hanna to be obliged to go into that campaign as a candidate for re- election on a republican tariff bill which simply re-enacts on the question of trusts the boneless provision of the Gorman-Wil- son law? ——_++e____ Significant Comment by the Jiji. The news that the Hawailan annexation treaty had been negotiated had evidently not reached Japan when the Jiji, a news- paper of considerable influence there, pub- lished certain bombastic comments on the attitude of the island republic in its resist- ence to the demands of Japan. These com- ments, which were published in last even- ing’s issue, indicate clearly the sentiment Prevailing in Japan with regard to Hawail. It has frequently been said here by oppo- nents of tne annexation policy that the fear of Asiatic domination which animated the Hawallan government to seek the Protection of the United States was largely if not wholly imaginary. Indeed it has been claimed that the whole agitation was fictitious, devised as a bugaboo to scare this country {nto annexation. The Star has repeatedly published facts from the Most trustworthy sources to show that the fear of Japanese colonization was a serious factor confronting the Hawaiian govern- ment, and that so far from being in any desree fictitious it was well recognized that Japan's dearest wish was for the ac- quisition of Hawali upon some terms that would give Japan the control. The Jiji’s references now clinch the case beyond further doubt. They show that the jingo- istic element in Japan has been clamorous for a brush with Hawaii. Reference is made by this newspaper to a “chastise- ment” of Hawali. That means but one thing—conquest. The phrases used serve to warrant even more credence than was formerly placed In the report circulated at Honolulu recently that the Japanese repre- sentatives there planned to land a force to take possession of the custom house. The prompt action of the Philadelphia’s com- mander resulted in an equally prompt dis- avowal of such an intention but the tm- pression was strong that but for the swift suggestion of resistance sent forth by the American representatives a brisk episode would have followed, with the practically certain result that Japan would today have a larger plece of business on hand than the mere brow-beating of a defenseless gov- ernment. ———___-+ + —___ Transferring Policemen. There should be no complaint on the score that policemen are being transferred from the posts they have been occupying to other precincts and duties. The few changes that have recently occurred seem to have aroused the indignation of the af- fected officers and their friends, who pro- claim against the policy of shifting effi- cient men. It is to be remembered that other cities have encountered serious difll- culties in the management of their police forces because of the tendency of retain inen on posts and beats several years at a Ume. New York's recent reforms as dic- tated by the disclosures of the Lexow in- inquiry were based on this experience. The policemen there were formerly retained on the same work season after season, growing to regard the interests they pro- tected as belor ging in a measure to them- selves. The system of blackmail and extor- tion uncovered by the Lexow process re- sulted in part from this fixity of the men’s stations, and partly from the wretched methods of management and appointments in vogue. In a city like Washington there should be little or no chance for such a system to become deeply rooted. It is thought that the police force here is practically free from such evils, and the best way to pri @ it in this condition is to keep the me: to disabuse their minds of the thonghts of vested rights in connsetion with thei: positions. The policy of occasional shiftings will quire the mea to familiarize themselves with every section of the city and Dis- in trict, as they should do «under any cumstances. A policeman ougat to be as efficient in one precinct as in another. When kept too long on one beat or in one section the officer is apt to gr oW careless, indifferent, perhaps, to violations of the law that to a fresh mind would appear worthy of arrests. The personal conven- jence of the individual ts to be the last item considered in the police management. The safety of the citizens and of their preperty must be held highest in esteem. —_++o Peculiar Tariff Retaliation. Acting on the belief that the Senate would insert a duty on tea in the tariff bill, the prime minister of Japan, as will be seen by reference to the news columns to- day, has decided to retaliate against the United States by placing an export duty on several articles cf commerce heavily im- ported by this country from Japan, such as silks and carpets. This {s a novel manner of retaliating. Usually the process con- sists of placing equivalent duties upon im- ports from the country that has imposed the tax originally. This has been tried against the United States on several occa- sions by European countries, with occa- sional success, but generally without mak- ing much stir in the American market. Japan's scheme seems on its face to be a poor one. The result of imposing an ex- port tax on such articles would almost surely be to drive the American buyers to apother market, for the goods mentioned are not bought so exclusively from Japan that other sources cannot be readily found. The project, however, is of merely passing interest in view of the late determination of the republican caucus to withdraw from the proposition to tax tea. —+e2—_____ It is scarcely considerate for candidates to drag Senator Wellington's intellect away from that task of awakening this country to the debt of honor incurred by its having been discovered by Spain, and compel him to devote it to the commonplace cares of minor appointments. ——__+ e+ Midsummer Bathing. The season of bathing accidents has ar- rived and {t behooves parents to be par- Ucular as to the’ daily whereabouts of the youngsters. One death has already been reported, caused by boyish carelessness in swimming or attempting to swim in a dangerous place. It was hoped that the public bathing beach would so attract the boys as to put an end entirely to these midsummer tragedies, but it appears that the Httle fellows still persist in swimming in the open river, at wharves and in pools in the branch and the creek. There is no reason for their selecting these out-of- the-way places, where they are beyond help, save perhaps that they do not care to walk to the public beach, where they are welcome at practically all hours. There are accidents at the beach, of course, for it is inevitabie that during the season some boys should go there before they can take care of themselves in the water, and try to do things wholly beyond their powers. But when the great num- bers of its patrons are considered—espe- cially on such a day as Wednesday, when over a thousand “went swimming’’—the percentage of casualties is remarkably small. The parents of small boys should therefore be careful to impress upon the young minds the importance of going to a place like the public beach, if they must swim at all. Swimming is a delightful luxury in summer, especially to the small boy, and {t is practically impossible to prevent him from indulging in it. Nor is it wholly desirable, for to a large class the occasional plunge in the river is prac- tically the sum total of observance of the rule of cleanliness. The beach is there- fore to be regarded as the safest place for the boys when their amphibious ten- dencies manifest themselves. The lads will as a rule realize the advantage of fol- lowing such advice if a few cases of ac- cidents resulting from wilful disobedience or recklessness are brought to their at- tention. The love of life in the young human animal fs strong enough to be re- Med upon when tte intelligence is aroused. 2 0e It is not disereet for clergymen to per- sist in making allusions to a return ot prosperity without making it clear that they are offered in a spirit of optimistic prophecy. Ministers who do this may come to be regarded as enviable exceptions to the rule, and cause a rush by insincere young men to join the ranks of an already crowded professicn. —___ + +2—____ It is now alleged that Mr. Havemeyer told what was untrne when requested to give information bearing on the sugar schedule.

Washington Corr, Philadelphia Press. Senator Wellington has taken the ex- traordinary ground that the President must rot appoint anybody to office from the state of Maryland without Mr. Welling- ton’s approval. Some time ago, on the recommendation of the Maryland delegation in Congress, the President nominated a well-known resi- dent of Baltimore for commissioner of im- migration at that port. Mr. Wellington had been informally consulted, but he had not given his formal consent. When he heard that the nomination had been made out by the President he sent a most vigorous protest to the White House and declared that he had not given his approval. As a result the nomination was with- held, and the notice of it made out for the newspapers was cut out of the list of other nominations. A day or two later Mr. Well- ington’s dignity having in the meantime been appeased by a formal application for his approval on the part of the friends of | the nominee, the senator informed the President the nomination could be made. It was then transmitted to the Senate and confirmed. ‘That will afford some idea of Mr. Well- ington’s conception of his position as sen- ator from the state of Maryland. —___- + +e ____ The People Like It.
