6 THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, JULY 6, 1897-12 PAGES. EV ENING STA THE STAR. ‘NOYES... ChosBY Ss. THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Cirealation usuch more than the combined cir- culation of the other Washington nd Advertising Medium tt has no competitor. ‘7 Im order to avold delays, on ac count of personal absence, letters to a ald not be addressed ual connected with the ply to THE STAR, or to or Business Depnrt- to tenor or purpose. the Editorial ments, aecordin: A Talk With canon Premter. ‘Though written before the Senate de- cided not to place a tax on tea and the Hawaiian annexation treaty waa nego- tiated, the letter published today from an editorial correspondent of The Star at Tokyo containing an interview with Count Okuma, Japan's minister of foreign affairs, is of ex- ceptional value. Indeed in some respects it is the more interesting as bearing upon the present stage of the relations of the United States and Japan than though it had been prepared with full acquaintance with the present facts. It shows that Count Okuma is a statesman of capacity and discretion and that he possesses a broad grasp of international affairs. It in- Gicates, however, that certain elements exist today in the Japanese body politic to ereate two oppcsing factors, the antag- onism between which must enter into all caiculations with regard to the island em- pire. These are the government on the one hand and the people at large on the other, the latter radical and eager for ac- complishments that the former does not deem wise or expedient to attempt now. ‘Thus, in the matter of Hawaii it would appear from this interview that while the government is probably sincere in its gea- eral statement that it does not contemplate the acquisition of that country, there is stil a strong sentiment abread among th people that points to such a course. Yet the prime minister in his talk was frank that Japan would deplore annexation of Hawaii by the United and thus he casts discredit upon the -ntations that had been made pre- Japanese agents that their ture in » protest already presented - minister here serves to raws have w. direction of the w = to note in the course of reference’ to the enough to adm th tion, and on the free sflver side afterward. The nattonal convention having put the free silver label on democracy, Tammany remains for free silver, and accepts Mr. Bryan as its prophet. That is all there is to Tammany Hall. But that ought to be enough to interest the people of Greater New York in their duty in the coming municipal election. Tammany aspires to man and run the new city government. Richard Croker is to take leave of the English turf long enough to ensble him to return and conduct the Tammany campaign. The cry, of course, will be for good local government, and Tammany wiil insist that no more is in- volved in the fight. But behind Tammany will stalk free silver and everything else embraced in the Chicago platform, and whatever of party advantage ts gained by Tammany wiil be transferred in due time to silver and its national champtons. Surely, therefore, the combination which prevatied last year in the Interests of good government for the whele country wil be- come active again this year for good local government. Properly speaking, there are no local issues anywhere this year. Silver is still the dividing Une, and no matter where he may be, cr what the local pres- sure may be, he who is not for silver should array himself actively, and so his vote distinetly may count against sliver. ——~+e_ The Fire-Cracker Evil. The fire-cracker nuisance has become well-nigh unbearable, and it is time to protest against a continued encouragement of the senseless, barbaric custom which seeks to express patriotism with diabolical noises, dangerous explosions and vile smelis. The Chinese method is well enough, perheps, for nations of semi-civilized ten- dencies, but it is out of place in such a community as jhis, which boasts of its in- telligence and its advancement. There are certain things whieh the firecracker habit accomplishes. It frightens horses and thus causes runaways, with sometimes serious results. It disturbs the sick and often im- perils, human life. It annoys the well and deprives them of the right to peace and vomfort to which every cit*zen is entitled. It causes burns, wounds and even death. It fills the hospitals with patients and the homes with sufferers. In New England yesterday it took the life of a valuable citt zen and deprived his family of its husband and father and the business world of his services. It maims little children for fife. its record ef evil is without end. And for what? In order that a certain which should be celebrated with sar observances typical of the oceasion, may be devoted to a licensed indulgence in noise.

Let it be hoped that the coming century will witness an awakening to these and that the Independence Days thenceforth will be ob- served sanely, logically and in such a man- ner that the * jotic’” practices in vogue wil arouse only tne sympathies and the good-will of all citizens, instead of, as new, the execration of a majority. —————_+ oe —__ The ry of Napoleon, The curator of the French archives is abeut to give to the public the first in- stellment of several hundred letters writ- boieon, but suppressed some thirty years azo by the n editors of the Na- poleonic cerrespondence.

Even then they will creep in after a season of fancied security on the part of the lawn-maker, and soon he has all his work to do over again. The Agricultural Depart- ment fs seeking to reduce this incessant labor by introducing a fine variety of grass that, once rooted well in a lawn, will keep cut all other forms of growth. The Wasn- irgten heuse-holders will doubtless patron- ize the “creeping bent,” the qualities of which are so loudly praised. They may profit, too, by the experience of a Connec- ticut lover of fine turf who has discovered that the best way to prepare a lawn is to Plant the grass rather than te sow it. He transplants small clumps of fine grass a few inches apart and thus obtains a system of strong roots from which the body of the turf develops. This is done cn a bed of carefully worked sctl from which all weed growths have been exhausted. These hints may enable the people of Washington to live down the reputation of having poor lawns. —_—_~++-+____ A great deal of taet is being displayed by American representatives abroad in in- dicating that their compltments to the Brit- ish government are not wholly without mental reservations. ——“++e—____ It may be said in commendation of the various schemes to reach the north pole that the literature about them conveys a soothing reminder that it is cold weather semewhere. ———++e—____ Mr. Bailey, as the leeder of the democ- racy in the House of Representatives, con- tinues to elicit some envious admiration a8 a gentleman with an ungqualitied sine- cure. ——__+ee—____ Possibly President McKinley brought his vacation at Canton so quickly to a close because he feared he might be needed at any moment to sign the new tariff bill. ————_¢ = —____ General Weyler may yet be moved to as- sert that the harboring of such weather as ; prevails in Cuba is contrary to all the rec- ognized rules of war. — 2 +e —___ There is no good reason why ~ Congress should net speedily retire and leave the center of the stage te the Washington base ball club. > Mr. Dole of Hawaii is one of the few people who have wern the title of prest- dent without being anxious for another term. oo _____ It is almost time for Mr. Debs to come candidly forward and prcclaim himself a middle-of-the-read anarchist.
