Aftermath From Ocean City. Latest reports from Maryland all go to confirm the opinion that the republican state convention at Ocean City acted wise- ly and for the best interests of the souna money cause. Expressions of approval come from both the press and the peopl The Star yesterday printed a number of intervi with prominent men who par- ticipated in the proceedings of the conven- tion, the general tone of which was ad- mirable and most assuring. There was no overcrowing. Everybody seemed to feel the hew responsibility imposed upon the party, the necessity of harmony, and the right the public now had to expect the bringing about of harmony. If only this feeling can be susiained, and be made the guide ot future conduct, the state may be expected to give a gocd account of herself in No- vember. That here and there some sharp criticism of Mr. Wellington should still survive is not surprising. He is an aggressive man who in two campaigns has won reputation Ss a manager. and as a reward has been elected to the Senate. Naturally, he has drawn about him what is called ‘follow- ing.” For several months prior to the con- vention, he with his following had been the storm center in the state, and in the great stress of the ‘circumstances he was not guided by good judgment. He at- tempted too much—more than was war- ranted, and more, he found out, than he could execute. The convention refused to indors* his course. Mr. Wellington did not control at Ocean City. But it would be the height of folly in those who did control to undertake to reckon without him in the coming battle. He knows the state from end to end, and has friends in every county. His services and theirs are of value. They are, indeed, indispensable. Clearly, Mr. Wellington and his friends must not be driven by any slight cr attempted persecution into an attitude of indifference in the coming fight. Mr. Wellington's mistakes and reverses do not disqualify him for duties of high respon- sibility. Other and abler and more experi- enced men than he have, like himself, at- tempted too much in the management of party affairs, but have lived through fac- tional defeat to render conspicuous services against the common enemy, and in doing so have atoned in large measure for past blunders. In fact, in polities, as in other fields, defeat is often the best test of a man. If Mr. Wellington is of the stuff of which real leaders are made it is in his power to profit as much by the result at Ocean City as those who by a narrow mar- sin overthrow him. But, eliminating the Maryland situation is promising because in- terest in the outcome is deeply and gener- ally aroused, and the prevailing spirit is that of an earnest desire to secure by hon- «st means the popular judgment and obey it. Fair primaries in the city of Baltimore, and a city and legislative ticket based on their expression, cught to clear up every doubt is to the vote in November. —__ + + = —____ Japan Proposing Conditions. It now appears that Japan's acceptance of Hawaii's proposition to submit the im- migration dispute to arbitration is accom- panied by conditions that Hawaii cannot ely accept. Japan's proposition, in brief, s so to widen the field of the arbitration that Hawaii's right to enact protective Jaws in relation to immigrants may be tested by a third party. Hawaii wisely re- gards this proposition ize her vereignty, by submitting zht to! er aw at her own pl » to an internationai court. The question ould to arbitration is merely in or in equity, under thi terms of a treaty or in the absence of no- © of a change of policy, Hawali should reimbu ertain individual Japanese who were refused admittance to the islands the pecuniary losses incurred by them in con- sequence of this refusal. The issue is whether Hawali owes money; not whether she has mads ble treaty with n which virtually transfers Hawaiian severeignty to that power. Hawaii's ac- ceptance of the present proposal of Japan would involve the entire question of na- stability, to preserve which she is now resisting Japan's reading of her ty with that government. The next step will doubtless be a denial by Hawaii of Japan's right so to complicate the situa- tion, and a restating of the plain proposi- tions that are properly the subject matter for a court of arbitration. This will lead to furthe> correspondence, notwithstanding the hint now thrown out that Japan's pres- ent note is in the nature of an ultimatum. s tending to jeopar- own go law an irrevoc tional fe There i ty and no justification for such tum, and it is wholly within H aii's right to require that full time be permitted in the negotiations pre- liminary to an arbitration if one is to be had. ———_~e0e Clayton MeMichael Honored. The recent nomination of Clayton Me- Michael of the Ncrth American for the of- fice of city treasurer by the republicans of Fhiladelphia was an excellent poiitical stroke sw very gratifying to his many friends in this city. Mr. McMichael as a Philadelphia newspaper man is as popu- lar and respected in that city as he made himself during his four years’ service here as marshal. He is, of course, sure to be elected, and sure to be a model treasurer, and Philadelphia is to be congratulated in advance. —————— > e2—___ Perhaps it would be wise to have the American farmer give bond that he will not take advantage of his sudden affiuence to join the cohorts of capitalistic oppres- sion. ———___+ es —_____ The people of Cleveland are inclined to complain that Mr. Hanna does not manage a reception as reliably as he does a conven- tion. 20 e —___ General Weyler’s greatest success lies in his ability to hold on to his place, despite changes ef administration. ——- e+ ___ The Czar's Two Visitors. ‘The Franco-Russian alliance grows in interest. What it all means ts difficult to tell. Russia's part of the game is at pfes- ent a complete mystery. She expects of course to profit by it, and the general ex- pectation is that she will, but in what ‘way, or how soon, speculation offers little that is satisfactory. France—always emo- tional—comes out frankly with what she has in view. She wants assistance in her feng cherished policy of revenge for the Joss of Alsace-Lorraine, and some of the Paris newspapers are noisy in their confi- @ence that Russia wili supply it. This, however, is to be considered in con- ection with the fact that Russia pro- {fesses as sincere friendship for Germany for France. Emperor William*had but uy left Russia when President Faure arrived. There had been a great display of German colors, a general playing of Ger- man airg by the bands, and a loud hurrah- ing by the Russian crowds, in honor of the German visitor. So how is all that to be reconciled with this French expectation that Russia is to help France get even with her old enemy and re-assert French author- ity over Alsace-Lorraine? The Czar is a young man of tact and capacity, and he pessesses a good deal of power, but he undoubtedly has a most difficult task on hand if he is to keep the friendship of two powers so fiercely antagonistic in all things toward each other as are Germany and France. The Star referred some weeks ago to an article contributed by ex-Senator Eustis to the July number of the North American Review on this subject of the Franco-Rus- sisn alliance, and this visit of President Faure to the Czar serves to recall the opinion there expressed. That opinion was that France had nothing to hope for from the alliance; that she had formed it in her | helplessncss, no other power offering to take her outstretched band; and it was pretty broadly suggested that the so-called policy of revenge was unworthy of a great nation, and, if persisted in to the neglect of the duties and opportunities of this pro- gressive era, would result in reducing France to a second class power. Mr. Eustis spent four years in France as the American mbassador, and had rare opportunities for studying the whole case. He is moreover a profound student of international questions, rd his admiration for France and the French people is not concealed in this very frank expression of regret at the course the French statesmen of the day are pursuing. A New Peril For Firemen. A fierce thunder storm passed over Brooklyn the other night and an electric belt struck the elevated railroad structure at a point near the center of the city. The lightning melted the overhead trolley lines that are suspended from “the ele- vated structure in this portion of the town and in a moment the street below was occupied by a writhing mass of highly charged metal, twisting here and there and filling the air with sparks. Just then a fire engine dashed up the street, headed for a near-by fire. The horses plunged into the tangle of live wires and in a moment ene of them was dead, another was ter- ribly burned and shocked, the metal ap- paratus was alive with currents, the men fell from their engine seriously shocked, and the greatest confusion prevailed. Meanwhile the fire blazed away unhin- dered. It required some minutes to un- tangle the wreck and to revive the fire- men. A new pair of horses had to be brought from the nearest engine house and later the company returned to their quar- ters, too badly shaken up for further serv- ice. Yet it is said in defense of the over- head trolley that it is not at all danger- ous, and that it fs an ornament and a blessing to any community that it adorns. The ordinary telegraph wire is an obstruc- tive element whenever a fire occurs, but this latest freak of the electrical current adds another horror to the perils that sur- round the fire-fighters in large cities that have not succeeded in forcing all forms of electrical conductors under ground. = The Loaf's Price and Weight. Although the bakers are generaily agreed and outspoken in their agreement that the present rise in the price of wheat does not warrant a rise in the retail price of bread, ceses have developed in which unscrupu- Icus dealers in this common necessity of life have taken unwarranted advantage of the opportunity thus afforded. This is done in two ways, by the retailer quietly adding an extra cent to the price or by the baker as quietly reducing the weight of the loaf. There are some bakers who have not he: tated to make goed the difference between the former cost of the loaf to them and the sent expense, caused by the rise in t prices, by reducing the material in h loaf by a few ounces, in spite of the fact that most bakers have now sufficient stocks of flour on hand to make such a move as it is unjustifiable and il To the average householder the loss of a few ounces of food material does not make a marked difference, but in the case of the poor, with whom each penny and each pound is of grave import- an ich schemes of petty fraud are of consequence. Every user of bread will doubtless look to the weight and price of his loaf. —_~ e+ —___ A National Educational Project. ‘The Star's latest information on the sub- ject is to the effect that thers is no likeli- hood that the scope of the proposed Cath- clic college for women, Trinity Hall, soon to be erected near the Catholic University in the suburbs, will be curtailed or that the institution will be less than national in its cims ard works. Statements to the latter effect have recently been circuiated 1 it was feared that perhaps this new establishment, which is to be located here in recognition of the fact that Washing- ten is a great and growing educational center, might be restricted to diocesan op- erations, thus scaling it down from the as- pirations cf its projectors. This does not row seem likely to prove true, and there is cause for satisfaction on the part of all Washingtonians who believe that the cap- ital city is destined to become the great seat of learning in the United States in the near future. ——+e2—____ The only chance for the rural agitator is to fill the farmer with indignation over what he has lost by the recent decline of a few cents in the price of over-boomed wheat. ———_~++e—___ When it is stated on authority that eges cost a dollar apiece at the Klondike the in- ference to be drawn as to the price of spring chickens becomes appalling.

One of the big trunk railroad lines has lately been experimenting with success in an effort to reduce one of the most serious discomforts of travel. It is sought to pre- vent the flying of fine dust particles as the train rushes over the rails, and to this end oil is spread over the road bed in proper quantities. The swift passage of the train causes a partial vacuum at the end of each coach, injo which the comparatively still air on the sides rushes in obedience to natural laws. This artificial wind sweeps up the fine dust-that lies between the rails, and it flies into the cars through the small- est openings. Passengers in the rear coaches of trains suffer particularly from this annoyance, especially in summer, when it is almost necessary to keep doors and’ windows open. The cinder screens that are used in some cars afford no protection against the dust, and the oil experiment is being conducted in the hope that the nui- sance may be wholly abated. The oil acts as a blanket over the dust already accu- mulated on the roadbed, and as a holder of other dust that may fall, and it is be- Heved that a single application of this ma- terial, vhich is spread from a slowly mov- ing cac, will suffice for many months. If this plan proves practical, and if the cinder evil can be further reduced by the adoption of better stack screens and other devices the demand for the abandonment of the present form of surface travel in favor of suspended electric lines or other satisfac- tory substitute may be quieted. ——++e—___ General Coxey appears to share the opin- ien of that eminent philosopher, ex-Re- ecrder of Deeds Taylor, that a man who remains in politics for his health is likely to devote a large portion of his life to nurs- ing vain regrets. —__—_--e—____ SHOOTING STARS. “I don’t like to see young men wasting their money buying diamond rings for girls,” said a yeung womun. “Neither do I,” replied the other; “es- pecially when so mary of them would rather have diamcnd frames.” Realization.

Speaker Reed in the Mlustrated American, Nothing has been more thoroughly well understood by those who have studied the past even in the superficial way in which we all tudy it than that there is a regular on of prosperity and adversity, of ity and prosperity, which varies in and appearances, but which is sub- stantially the same century after century. We will not press teo strongly the seven fat and seven lean kine which came up out of the sea in the dream of Pharaoh, but you may depend upon it that that dream had its origin in actual events, and that the alternation of good times and hard times antedates the pyramids. But whether that be so or not, the com- plex nature of modern society, the welding together in matters of trade of the whole world from China to Peru and from far Cathay to the Polar zones, has made the periodicity of this alternation more mark- ed, more clearly defined, wider spread and more nearly universal. Has it eurred to you to think that the the laws which govern the universe can even in this case be justified to human rea- son and sense, and that hard times them- selves help work out the salvation of the human race? —_—__ = ____ Better Than Gold. From the Denver Times. It is said that forty miners took out of the Yukon valley recently $2,100,000 in gold, after enduring several years of appalling hardships. This has been proclaimed throughout the world as something extra- ordinary in the way of getting rich quickly. Yet in the state of Wyoming alone a single industry—that of live stock raising—has ad- vanced in value over $5,000,009 in the past year, and it would not be difficult to find fifty men who have gathered $50,000 apicce in the time stated, while the enormous cancellation of mortgages in states much nearer to civilization than Alaska shows that the farmers in these common are panning out gold as surely as gold seekers on the tributaries of the Yu- kon, and with infinitely less risk of death from cold and hunger. —___ +++ ____ The Business Man's Weight.
