Greet the Boys at Montauk Point. While the preparations for the formal welcorre to the District Volunteers on their return to Washington are in the most satis- factory shape and in capable hands, yet it is clear that an emergency exists today which must be ret for the present, at least, by efforts outside of the movement so auspiciously started by Wednesday's miss meeting. The regiments which have arrived at Mentauk Point from Cuba have been reported as landing in a condition to need the most thoughtful at- tention and the tenderest care and 25 suf- fering in many instances from the lack of such attention by persons directly inter- ested in the welfare of the individual or- ganizations.

Generals Lawton, Wheeler, Duffield and Ludlow of the army, and Admiral Sampson and Cap‘a'n Mc- Calia of navy, were in position to ob- serve the Cuban contingent, and all speak words of praise of the services rendered. These officers all agree that, for men so poorly equipped and so poorly trained for co-operation with the United States regu- lars, the Cubans acquitted themselves ex- ceedingly well. They performed scout duty. they were assigned to a position, and held it, in the front line, and they took their orders from General Shafter. If they were naked, it was because they had noth- ing wherewith to clothe themselves, and if they fed bountifully from Uncle Sam's table. it was because they had been starv- ing in the bush for fully three years. ‘The Cubans have but to be patient. The American people are worthy of their per- fect confidence. While men like Prof, Nor- ton of Harvard University are insisting that there should have been no war on any account, and yowlers of lesser degree but of the same kidney are insisting that the Cubans in particular were not worth the struggle, the fact remains that the truly representative sentiment of the United States justifies the war, and holds still that it was undertaken to give the Cuban peo- ple free government. There was no hys- teria about it. The whole matter had been thoroughly canvassed, and all probable re- sults as to the Cubans taken into consid- eration. And as there was no hysteria about the war in its Inception, there wil! be no perfidy in dividing the fruits of the victory. The United States having fought the good fight, will keep the faith. Meanwhile every consideration of wis- dom teaches that the Cubans should keep the peace and obey the laws, and set an excellent example of patience and industry and fair dealing. The island is to be tran- quilized for their benefit, and they should show the world, to the shame of their tra- ducers, a ready response to: services alto- gether unselfish in their behalf. ——_-++____ Declare a Holiday. All Washington, doubtless without a sin- gle exception, 1s interested in the return of the District regiment to this city. Those who have no relatives or close friends in the ranks are concerned in the organiza- tion as a whole, proud of its record, grati- fied at its safe arrival home again, eager to do it honer. Therefore, the occasion of the reception to the volunteers will be of exceptional importance, and it is proper to Suggest that no effort be spared to make it memorable ia the local annals. While the committees are at work upon the arrange- ments and the finances the employers of the District can contribute effectively in another way to make the affair a complete success by preparing to close their places of business on the day of the reception. Should the regiment's march past the Presi- dent occur in the day-time it is highly im- pertant that opportunity be given to prac- tically all Washington to share in the wel- come by presence on the streets through which the volunteers pass in their parade. When the vessels of Admiral Sampson's squadron sailed up the North river last Saturday to fire a salute at the tomb of General Grant the vast crowds of on-look- ing, cheering patriots were greatly swelled ove> what they would have numbered on orcimary occasions because the municipal authorities, as well as the majority of em- ployers, had granted a holiday to enable the citizens the more thoroughly to par- ticipate in the greeting to the ships of war and their gallant crews. That was by no Means a strictly local affair, such as the reception to the District regiment will be in its main features. There is thus good reason why Washington should do as much for its own representation in the army of the nation as New York did for the navy. A holiday so granted will reflect no loss upon those who thus generously donate the time of their employes to the success of the occasion. The government depart- may perhaps be specially closed for st half of the day of the reception, in order that the thousands of clerks, who are closely identified with the personnel of the regiment, may join in the welcome. The President's sympathy with the purpose of the reception has already been disclosed through his letter to Commissioner Ross, and it is not too much to hope that it will find expression tn an executive order creating a special holiday for the clerks on this occasion. The committee on arrange- ments will probably soon be in position to organize a movement toward a general holi- day among the business houses. Nothing would more distinctly add to the complete- ness of the welcome-home soon to be ex- tended to our soldiers now on their way to Washington from the front. ——_— + « = —___ Peace-Loving Queen Victort; A London correspondent wires that there are evidences in the present status of the Anglo-Russian controversy that Queen Vic- torla has retreated from her stubbornly pacific policy and granfed Lord Salisbury permission to adopt a more positive tone in his dealings with the government at St. Petersburg. Leter dispatches from the English capital declare that this report grows out of the gossip of the clubs and utterly lacks verification. As evidence that Great Britain has not progressed beyond her recent policy in the handling of the far eastern questicn, It 1s cited that two ships have been withdrawn from the Chinese station. Whatever may be the present truth it is evident that one potent reason for the otherwise inexplicable fail- ure of the British ministry to adopt an ag- gressive tone toward Russia and China ex- ists in the well known repugnance of the queen to permit her reign to be soiled with another war. Her peaceful desires are uc- cepted throughout Europe as one of the strongest guarantees of continued peace on the continent which the complex situation affords. It has been discounted and banked upon in the diplomatic dealings with Eng- land on the part of practically every other power. It kept her out of the Armenian muddle and later out of the affray between Turkey and Greece. It granted ‘Oom Paul” Kruger immunity from attack. It has ved to help France in her African aggressions and it is assuredly aiding Rus- sia in hee gradual absorption of China's most valuable favors. Victoria is now nearing the end of her reign. Her years are many, her health is gradually failing. Will she continue to maintain her veto upon the nation’s martial projects until her death? Will her successor be animated by the same peaceful ambitions? ———___ + 0 = —___ The Sultan of Turkey will consider the Philippines and remember that this coun- try is prepared to go a long way from home when it once gets started. - +028 It is a great misfortune for Spain that the war has not brought a new set of men to the front to play parts in her politics. $$ ~» 2-2 General Weyler is in some danger of be- coming the Carl Browne of Spain. —_—___ +e -- Too Much Red Tape. Recent disclosures concerning the reason why the sick soldiers at hespitals have not r ed delicacies out of the public pan- tries indicate that there has been much misunderstanding between the bureaus of the War Department in this war and in a certain degree a failure on the part of the various systems to work in harmony. It appears now that by special order the sum of @ cents a day was available for the needs of each sick soldier in this regard end it remained for the publication of a paragraph in The Star the other day con- cerning the condition of the patients at Fort Myer to reveal the fact that the sur- geons were not utilizing this fund. Steps have now been taken to remedy the fault, but nothing can repair the wrong which has already been done the suffering volun- teers and regulars through somebody's blunder. Sick men cannot get well and strong on the hard, coarse fare furnished the men in the ranks, and it is gratifying to learn that some officer in high authority in the army was wise and humane enough to secure the provision of a sufficient al- lowane for dainties and the nourishing foods required by patients and convales- cents. Now let somebody else discover why the order was not obeyed during the time following its promulgation and ending yes- terday. It is to ‘be suspected from this inci- dent and others regularly being reported that much of the suffering and many of the blunders have been caused by the absence of a sufficient compactness in the military establishment. At Montauk Point, for in- stance, there were plenty of good food stuffs at hand and Secretary Alger was puzzled to find that the men were in some cases suifering in the hospitals for the lack of these very supplies. On Investigation he ascertained that no- wagons were to be had to carry the food to the points of consump- tion, those in charge of the hauling refus- ing to carry the supplies because they were classified as “stores” and their wagons were not intended for such purposes. A few sharp orders straightened out the tan- gle quickly. There has been far more red tape than the occasion demanded in the conduct of some branches of the campaign. ——__ + «<« ——____ Prof. Norton cught to employ one of the numerous press censors who will presently be at Mberty. ———_~+ +2 —_____ Admiral Dewey is doubtless of the opin- lon that It is a great mistake to try to splice a submarine cable with red tape. ———_+ +e —___- SHOOTING STARS. Friends. “Sometimes,” said the young man who is becoming slightly cynical, “it does seem that a dollar is the best friend a man can have.” “Yes, sir,” replied Senator Sorghum. “And I have always contended that it is a polltl- cian's duty to make as many friends as possible.” The New Possessions. Hooray for our conquest far over the sea; Its glory—with rapture I tell it; Its name has a music which fills me with glee, Though I cannot pronounce it nor spell it. Thankful. They were of the irredeemably snobbish type. One of them heaved a sigh and re- marked: “What a pity it is, deah boy, that the Prince of Wales doesn’t live in the United States. “Never mind, old chap. Be thankful for what you have. It’s something to be liv- ing on the same earth with him, you know.” Gives Notice. “The war's over, isn’t it?” inquired the rigorous and aggressive partisan. “It may be considered so,” replied his friend. “I've been pretty quiet about my political views, haven't 1?” “Yes. I had hoped you had modified some of your opinions.” “No, sir. When the war commenced I announced that my sympathies were en- listed with the administration. And now that the war is over I give notice that they've been mustered out.” Peace. No more the battle’s rude alarms Come echoing o’er the sea. Peace hastes with soft, resplendent charms And iron monsters flee. ‘Tis sweet to see the sun that glints Through clouds which bred despair; ‘Tis sweet to watch for autumn tints Instead of smoke and glare. Both great end small have done their best Each danger to dispel. ‘Tis sweet to let the tocsin rest And ring the dinrer bell. —_- > «= —____. Spain Really a Gainer, From the Hartford Courant. Spain, in reality, loses little by this war except ‘some ships. Cuba she had made worthless to herself and to the rest of the world. The Philippines were rapidly ap- proaching the same condition. Since the war began she has not sent a soldier nor a musket to Cuba, and she has some of the soldiers already there returned to her on a pass. She spent some money in tolls for the passage of her fleet through the Suez canal, but the crews can say with the old whaler captain in the story that though they did not “get aay oil” they had “a mighty fine sail.” Her colonies have never been in the true sense outlets for superflous population, nor yet commercial feeders. They ha teen a source of deep-seated civil corrup- tion. Spain has a large, industrious and thrifty home population and a diversified territory, part of it agriculturally product- ive, part rich in minerals. Her coast pop- ulation are admirable sailors, and she is favorably situated for commerce. If she will abandon her mediaeval methods there is no reason why in ten years she should not find herself more prosperous than she has been since the fifteenth century. ———_+ +2 —__ A Chance to Form a Naval Reserve. From the New Orleans Picayune. In reducing the number of ships in ser- vice the personnel of the navy will also naturally be cut down, This force, which has been got into excellent trim by the drill and experience of the war, once scattered cannot be easily gathered together again. It would, therefore, be well to improve the present opportunity of laying the founda- tion for a proper and suitable naval re- serve. All the men were enlisted into the service for a year; hence they could be held, if necessary, to the end of their en- listment. Such a course would not be nec- essary nor wise. The men could be dis- ckarged conditionally, however, and their names and residences carried’ on a roll, with a view to being recalled promptly to the service should a new emergency arise before Congress meets in December next. When Congress reassembles, however, stem; ought to be at once taken to establish a proper naval reserve force, with officers and men properly graded ‘and rated, so that in the event of war they can be called into service without confusion or delay. = “Coin” in Colorado. From the Chicago Tribune. Mr. Harvay—better known as “Coin’—Is lecturing on free silver in Colorado. While this looks much like “carrying coals to Newcastle,” it would probably be more just to regard it as evidence that missionary work is ne2ded to keep the free silver party from going to pieces in the champion free silver state. ———+ e+ —___ When the Tennesseeans Get There, From the Honolulu Commercial Advertiser. They say there will have to be more leg room undcr the tables in the transport store dining room when the long men from Tennessee arrive.
