4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. TUESDAY... -November 9, 1897. CROSBY S. NOYES Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular a permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- eulat the other Washington dailies. As a Ne ai Advertising Medium it has eompetitor. @7Im order to avoid delays, on ne- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed 1 connected with the to THE STAR, or to mad Rapid Transit. It is stated that the attention of the Hu- mane Society has been called to the condi- tion of the horses drawing the cars of the Eckington and Belt railways in this city and perhaps some practical move toward the installation of rapid transit may result from this step. Those horses have been the cause of popular protests and outcries for many months. The Commissioners have received letters from humane cit!- zens, the newspapers have printed com- munications on the same subject and it kas been one of the scandals of the city that corporations should engage in such cruel practices as could be witnessed at any hour of the day on the branches of these lines. The companies have sought to excuse themselves on the ground that they were about to equip their lines with the compressed air motors, just as the other day the receiver for the Belt road alleged that that property should not be sold be- cause it was about to be placed on a rapid transit basis. This excuse would perhaps be valid in the case of a concern that de- served public confidence but it can not be accepted in this instance. The plea of # new equipment is itself under suspicion. It has been put forward from time to time for many months to secure one postponemen« after another and has become a sort of mirage, ever tempting the public and never materializing. The car horses can not sustain themseives on promises. They can not rest and re- cuperate on the system that is in vogue now on these lines. They should have been replaced long ago with fresh stock. The schedule should have been lowered for them, so that each horse would not be com- pelled to work practically twice as hard as the average horse on a well conducted road. The facilities for the care of the ani- mals on these roads are abominably inade- quate. In this weather the spectacles pre- sented at the terminals of three of the branches, that are supplied with equine Power by means of relays from the far- distant stables, are pitiful in the extreme, the horses standing in the chill air with- out blankets and barely able to drag their skeleton frames into place when their turn comes for the long, hard trips. The Humane Society can now 40 a great Public service by actively taking hold of this situation and stopping the cruelties that are daily practiced. The principles upon which this organization is founded and those that underlie the laws that give it power te act are not of such a nature that these cruelties can be temporized with even in the face of promises. They demand action regardless of the future perform- ances that are so suggestively indicated. Nothing would bring these dilatory roads to terms more speedily than a vigorous cam- paign by the agents of the society among the wrecks of the hauling department. If every horse that is unfit for work should be condemned and the officers of the com- panies prosecuted for cruelty to animals the rapid transit prospects might become More than visions floating before the eyes of the travelling public of the District. ——_+ +e ____ The Canadian Visitors. The arrival of Sir Wilfrid Laurier and colleagues in Washington on business out- lined in the dispatches is an event of far more than ordinary importance. Their wel- come will be cordial, and their stay, it is to be hoped, will be pleasant and profita- ble. The Canadian premier is a man of a@ high order of ability, and he exerts a very considerable influence on public af- fairs on this continent. The full nature of his visit will in good time be disclosed, and coming as he does in a spirit of friend- ship he will be met in that spirit. There is no controversy, indeed, existing between Canada and the United States which ought mot to yield to a satisfactory settlement on the basis of friendly presentation. According to report, Sir Wilfrid comes Prepared to take up, at least for discus- sion, all matters in controversy, or tending that way, between the two countries. This adds very considerably to the interest of his visit. The seal question is uppermost in popular concern here at present, and it Was to consider it that Canada was in- vited to send representatives to Washing- ton at this time. There are, however, other points at issue, and there is a possibility that the time may be viewed as ripe for lumping all differences, old controversies like the North Atlantic fisheries, and new controversies, like reciprocity under the Dingley bill, bonding privileges enjoyed by Canadian railroads, and labor in the Klon- dike country. The relations between the United States and Canada are, upon the whole, friendly. There are many people in both countries who must be sincerely glad to see them closer. The two countries have many in- terests in common. Each might profit by well-guarded concessions to the other. The Present is a good time to bring the mat- ter up. The United States is fully advised as to its own imterests in the commercial World, and is entering, with popular senti- ment well fixed on the subject,.on a re- newal of the policy of reciprocity. If Can- ada has any propositions to make, it could not come from a higher authority than her premier, or under circumstances entitling it to more respectful consideration than as Presented by him in person on this special visit. —>+o__ General Blanco’s amiable proclamation is an other illustration of how necessary a change of editorial policy sometimes be- comes. ——*~++o____ Mrs. Nack is growing despondent. FPos- eibly the sensational artists and litterateurs have unduly prejudiced her against herself. ——_+e+o____ ‘The Remedy for Bossism. There is a well-justified objection through- cut the country to bossism in politics. Big and little bosses; democratic bosses and re- Dubiican bosses; state bosses and national bosses, have been cutting such capers with public affairs during the past few years that the people have become alarmed und ‘Want an end put to ft. Various suggestions @re being thrown out ‘or correcting the evil. “How shall the boss be abated?" is the question of the hour. tion industriously and successfully? Turn to last week's elections. In New York Tammany Hall triumphed. And such amateurs in the exercise of citi- zenship that they were unable to put up an effective fight against an experienced foe. It was a battle of militia against regulars, with the usual result. Tammany keeps up its organization. The Tammanyite knows no “off year” when it comes to attending primaries and hustling for votes. But there are thousands of men of substance in New York who take Httle interest in politics except during presidential campaigns. If all such men busied themselves, as they should do, at every election making their votes and influence count one year the ‘same as another, Mr. Platt’s bossism would be of no avail. Neither he nor any other man could handle for selfish purposes an organization composed of so many men of that stamp. They could give their town the kind of government they want, and that it should have. In Maryland bossism got a severe blow— let it be hoped, a fatal blow. The organi- zation, which had proved so effective in 1895 and in 1896, still held together and registered its third victory. The men of substance throughout the state still felt themselves called upon to be on the alert. In Baltimore, particularly, where bossism had in the years past been so unscrupu- lous and so offensive, the business men turned out for the third time in force and rolled up a large and decisive vote. They were determined to have no more of Mr. Raisin and his gang rule. These two instances illustrate ‘he whole case. Bossism, and politics for revenue only, are the outgrowth of the neglect of people to attend properly to their public duties. It is too much the habit of large numbers of men to leave politics to others. ‘They find excuses in the multiplicity of their private affairs. This delights the boss. It smoothes the way for him and his crowd, and they revel in spoils. But Where, as in Maryland, the people turn out, year after year, and rebuke bossism and all that it signifies, the way is opened for good gov- ermment and the rule of intelligence and responsibility. Bosses never continue to flourish after the people thoroughly bestir themselves in their own interests. —__ 2 0 Gomez and Sanguilly. It is difficult to believe that Gen. Maximo Gomez has, as reported, peremptorily or- dered Gen. Julio Sanguilly to report for field duty in Cuba as a brigadier, under threat of disgrace if he should fail to obey. Sanguilly is virtually on parole, with the United States standing as his sponsor. He was a prisoner in Havana, charged with complicity in the rebellion. He asserted, that he was an American citizen, and proved his claim. The government here in- sisted upon his release on this ground, but the Spanish government not unreasonably demanded that if he was released as an American citizen he should conduct him- self as such, and should relinquish tne rignt to participate in the insurrection. The case was made the subject of diplo- matic negotiation, and was to some extent a test of the rights of the United States in the premises. Sanguilly was reluctant to sign the promise to refrain from giving aid and comfort to the rebels, but when it be- came apparent that without that promise’ he would continue a prisoner he signed the document, and was turned over to the American authorities and transported to this country, where he has since remained. If now he returns to Cuba to fight he will have placed this government in the atti- tude of securing his release by fraud. He has been told that he will also surrender his rights as an American citizen, and thus he is placed in the awkward position of jeopardizing the interests both of himself and the government that befriended him. For Gomez to insist now upon his return is therefore calculated to embarrass this country, whatever Sanguilly may elect to do. It is of course in a large measure a question that affects Sanguilly’s conscience only, just as it was at first a similar ques- tion when, as a prisoner of war, he was confronted with the alternative of a renun- ciation of his cause or a prolonged impris- onment. But inasmuch as the United States has been utilized to obtain his free- dom, his return to the field would now smack of a species of fraud that would se- riously handicap the State Department in its dealings with Spain in other cases of a similar nature. Sanguilly’s military talents are probably not so sorely needed by the insurgents that the latter can afford to alienate the friend- ship of the United States or to weaken its Power in intervention. Sanguilly here, as a personal demonstration of the cruelty of the Spanish government, an advocate otf the cause of Cuba and an example of the ability of the United States to bring Spain to some sort of terms, will be a far more vseful agent in behalf of the insurgents than Sanguiliy in the field, participating in the guerrilla warfare and exposed to Span- ish treachery. It is hardly to be credited, therefore, that Gomez, save upon a misun- derstanding of the circumstances, would create such an embarrassing situation by st'ckling at the strict letter of the military code of ethics. see ____ General Miles’ suggestion that Gathng gunz be provided for the federal building at Chicago would arouse less disfavur if there were any means of giving a guaran- tee that nobody of Sheriff Martin's peculiar temperament would ever be given tempo- rary charge of them. ———_+«<+____ ‘The well-bred race-horse disports himself in confidence that while inventive genius may cause him to lese j-restige as a thing of utility, nothing can change the devotion of admirers of grace and intelligence on the turf. ———__ +++ ____ It remains to be seen whether, when Mr. Foraker buried the hatchet, he did not leave enough of the handle uncovered to be in easy reach for an emergency. ——————r+2—___. An Uncenvincing Protest. The attitude of the native Hawaiians who are said to be coming to Washington to protest against the annexation of the islands to the United States is well worth coasideration. These men, claiming to rep- resent the sentiment of the natives of the republic, merely autagonize the suggestion of union. They do not stand openly for royalty, and it is known from their ante- cedents that they are not ardent sympa- thizers with the republican form of govern- ment. But they are going to urge that the existing state of affairs be not disturbed, and they will probably argue that it is to the best interests of Hawaii that the United States should keep hands off and per- mit the republic to remain intact. This is an ingenious proposition, coming as it does from the element that has been supposed to be opposed to the republic and in favor of the monarchy. In his recently issued “‘Hand-book on the Annexation of Hawaii” ex-Mirister Thurston writes: “The day when the aboriginal Hawaiian alone should own and control Hawaii has gone, and gone forever. It is no longer a question of whether Hawaii shall be con- trotied by the Peak the aan ge le, some y le; juestion eae Poaage shall control Hawaii?” The plea of these native Hawaiians that the republic should remain undisturbed cannot be accepted at its face value. It must be interpreted to mean eflther a play for the restoration of the monarchy or for the surrender of Hawaii to the Japanese, who today hold the balance of power in the islands when the question of government is ngduced to its racial elements. The pres- ent situation in the islands, with all the known factors taken into acapunt, demands toward the of Hawaii by some other power than the United States. Two such stand eagerly ready for the chance— Japan and Great Brftain, Continued inde- pendence is known to be out of the ques-_ tion, and those who advocate it must be either ignorant of the true situation or actuated by an ulterior motive. It is in the Hght of these truths that the protest to be made by the delegation of native Hawail- ans now on the way to this city must be interpreted. —s+oe____ Mr. Nansen.says that the north pole can easily be reached. This is a comforting assurance. The world has not so many interesting lecturers that it can afford to have them wandering among icebergs and getting lost. —\*_rro—___ It is not to be assumed that Tammany’s ability to secure a “vindication at the polls” will increase the respect in which the article is popularly held. ————_~+ +o —___ SHOOTING STARS. A Comment. “I will say,” remarked Willie Wishing- ton, “that I have attained remarkable self- control.” = “Yes,” replied Miss Cayenne, listlessly; “some people se2m to have a positive genius for attending to the’ trifling details of life.” Greatly Missed. Oh, troubadour, troubadour, with your gui- tar, Your absence is sorely lamented! How we'd welcome you back through the centuries far! For these popular tunes, which our peace sadly mar, When you sang, had not been invented. “That mar does not seem to have gotten credit for his public services.” “He doesn’t need it,” replied Senator Sorghum. “He has made enough to be able to pay cash.” “Not knowin’ no better makes a heap o’ trouble in dis worl,” said Uncle Eben. “When er man loses money at de race track de only pahty dat kin re’ly furnish a good excuse is de hoss.” Explained. “What did Josiar say to you in his let- ter?” inquired Mr. Corntossel. “He said he thought some of learnin’ to be a draftsman,” replied his wife. “Hm. I reckon that explains why he has had so much to say ‘bout me helpin’ him raise the wind.” Apology. Ef I warn’t so bury, there’s lots I’a do. But the strongest natures will sometimes faint When they.find a task that they can’t git through An’ they settle dcwn an’ they cease com- plaint. I'd git right after the things I view That orter be ‘tended to, an’ ain’t, Ef I warn’t s0 busy. Ef I warn't so busy—but times like these Was made fur loafin’ an’ lngerin’ round, Watchin’ the rainy-glistenin’ trees Or kickin’ the dry leaves ‘lomg the ground; - I can’t neglect a-takin’ my ease, Though there's lots of duty as could be found Ef I warn’t so busy. ———_>+2e—__. Reform, Not Prohibition. From the Philadelphia Press. But while so much can be said to relieve foot ball of unreasonable popular prejudice it should be acknowledged that the game as now played has unnecessary perils. There are too many mass plays and too little open playing. If this increased the interest in the game there might be some reason for it, but it does not. The spectators see little of the ball and in the main only a_strug- gling mass of humanity without form of shape and the movements of which few un- derstand. This mass playing which causes most of the injuries should be abolished and the English method which involves more open playing should be substituted. Another danger should be guarded against as far as possible, and that is the possible harm to the future health of the players. Even when a student receives no apparent injury the strain and draft upon the vital resources are so great that the health can hardly escape. The harm done may not become evident for years, but it will surely appear in time. Foot ball will undoubtedly survive all the detraction of its enemies. The mental and physical discipline it gives and the stimu- jus it adds to the interest in athletics in general are too valuable to be surrendered. There are risks in it but if young men are to be taught only such things as involve no dangers they will be poorly prepared to meet the stern duties of life. Foot ball needs reforming but not abolishing. —>+e—____ The Slug-Ball Death Roll. From the Chicago Tribune. The week ending today still further swells the list of killed and injured upon the slugball field throughout the country, though comparatively few games have been played. The summary of casualties, not counting slight injuries, is as follows: Killed, 4; critically injured, 5; severely injured, 102. This is the intellectual, mind-improving and body-strengthening game which its ad- vocates claim is characterized by “the ab- sence of brutality and ungentlemanly con- duct.” This is also the game, speaking of which some college authorities recently maintained that “personal encounters of some sort seem Absolutely necessary to the education of young men, especially men of the strongest character,” and that “the consequent hospital list every autumn is as beneficial as it is necessary.” It is the only game in the pursuit of which physicans, surgeons, stretchers, ambulances and hos~ Fitals are necessary adjuncts. ——_-+2___. Religi and Business. From the Churchman. One way of translating social responsibil- ity into immediate Christian action fs sug- gested by the Consumers’ League. The purpose of the league, both tn this country and in England, is to give its members in- formation as to the shops in which they may spend their money without doing harm to their fellow men. The names of the dealers who sell goods which are made un- der right conditions, and whose stores are fit to be the habitation of human are set down in a “white list.” quirements are reasonable; transaction is above board; the dealers know what they must do if they desire the trade of enlightened Christian people. The result is not only to inform the purchasing public, but to correct abuses. There such @ league in New York; there is an- other in Chicago; one is being formed in Boston. They make it possible for those wko are interested in social betterment and perplexed as to what to do to be of immediate, practical and effective service to their fellow men. Thus is Christianity car- ried out of the church into the shop, and the fraternal teachings of the Master made and selling. w It is more than likely that of the belligerency of Cuba would be for dependence. 1 ia mot at all kets Sree Spanish bluster, that n precipt Asciyée “cat” of Tool for the horse? 11 Now's: opportunity if you're not alrthdy'S customer of ours to turn over pew: Grat and insure the horse Al is, hay, bran, corn, ete.. and time yourself the least tli outlay, Qo ordering of us!
