The church as a whole necessarily concerned in the enterprise which promises to give it a representation on a national basis at the seat of govern- ment, where already are ample evidences of the new spirit along the same line in other fields. The convention now in session, therefore, is of exceptional importance to the capital not alone as regards the immediate benefits of the session, but as the charac- ter of Washington as the nation’s city and the national center is emphasized and im- pressed upon the national representatives of the church. The cathedral project, which is largely dependent for success upon the aid received from beyond the bound- aries of the diocese, is certain to d- vanced, for from their personal observ: tions the delegates to the convention, both clericals and laymen, are sure to be !m- pressed with the desirability of giving the church a representation in the growing community of national religious establish- ment When this cathedral foundation has be- come a fact, with its buildings designed upon an appropriate scale of magnificence, thus symbolizing in architecture the pur- s of the organization creating it, Wash- ington will have won a new honor, an addi- al right to the title of the national having then in evidence new signs of e steadfast drift hither of the nation’s thought in education, in religion, in lofty moral purpose, as well as in governmental endeavor.

The Star pointed out immediately upon the promulgation of the platform of the ew York democracy the boomerang that had been thrown in the matter of denounc- ing the President for his military appoint- ments from civil life in meeting the emer- gency against Spain. The platform wa drawn in part to aid in the return of Mr. Murphy to the United States Senate, and among the appointments thus criticised is that of a son of Mr. Murphy, and his namesake, now serving in the Philip The people of New York are now discussing the subject, and are adding to The Star's citation. Other prominent democrats sic itor Murphy are involved. A go9d tial list of such appointments bears worship of men high in the coun- be be- absta on cils of the New York democracy. Nor will the matter be confined to the state of New York. It applies in all the states and even in the territories.

The war with China undoubtedly had a marked effect upon the national e: sion into foreign markets. Domestic trade has sought an outlet for its preducts and exports bave been ac- companied by heavy imports. The bar Tiers being once down the question arises as to who shall supply the demand. No cther nation is better placed, geographical- ly or industrially, than the United States to meet the requirements of the Japanese and to compete with the world in taking advantage of the new conditions. Our goods are of high quality, our prices are low. Our freight charges are lighter than those eple. ing more, cn German or English goods, or, in fact, }@ny of the continental productions. The problem of transportation ts easy for us when compared with that to be solved by our competitors in the market. The open- ing of trans-continentel railways joining China and the eastern coast with Europe may ultimately change the case, but not for many years, and the ocean carrying trade will not be thus disturbed until the American manufacturers have been firmly established. With Hawail under the Amer- ican flag the trade dominance of this coun- try in the Pacific will be strengthened. With the Nicaragua canal completed it will be possible to a far greater extent than ever before for manufacturers on this edge of the continent to ship to Japan and China on terms practically shutting out European products, even when the lower wages paid on the continent are taken into account. The avoidance by this means of the long railway haul from ocear to ocean and the saving of time by avoiding as well the Cape Horn route or its alternative Suez c course will prove of immense advantage to American shippers. But best of all is the evident fact that the Japanese prefer the American manufactures, having found them reliable and suitable to their needs. They are developing a market for the higher grades of our products, having littie use for the cheap stuffs which are more suitable in some other regions. Such a market is exceptionally valuable and buts a premium upon the best energies of every manufacturer and shipper in seck- ing to please these enterprising, ambitious people, who have been so quick to appre- ciate both the value of American advice end friendship and the quality of American goods, ———_—__ + e = —____ War is confessedly a barbarous institu- tion, and it is difficult to make accurate measurements of the amount of hardship a soldier may reasonabiy be expected to endure. 2 Captain Dreyfus would be glad to have his vindication presented in time to do service elsewhere than in the obituary columns. soe Washington can at least reflect that its demands have been in no wise responsible for the B. and O.’s impecunious condiuon. > oe For a city of brotherly love the Pennsyl- vania metropolis manages to create a won- derfui amount of disturbance ~~ oe There are several politicians who realize that their ill-fortune may be due to a fail- ure to keep out of jobs. ~~ 2.202 HOOTING STARS.

Beaten Once for All. From the Philadelphia Press. Democrats In states like Massachusetts, where they are certain to be beaten, and in southern states, where they are certain to win, adopt the Chicago platform, In New York and other states where democratic conventions imagine that the party has a chance to win something the free silver plank is carefully avoided. But whether democrats adopt, reject or are silent over free silver, the people are against it, and it is beaten once for all. ——————+ +2 _____ is His Own Man. From the Syracuse Herald. it is true that Platt quickly recognized the merit of Roosevelt's candidacy and adopted it as his own. But this sagacious movement on the part of the boss does not alter the vital consideration that Roose- velt is distinctly an unfettered and an un- muzzled candidate, that he is no man’s man. : ——_+--e—_____ Have Confidence in Hobson. From the New York Tribune. A majority of naval and wrecking experts seem opposed to Hobson's theory that the Cristobal Colon can be raised and set afloat. It is not a case in which a confident lay epinicn can be expressed, but the public has a good deal of confidence in the ability of Hobson to do whatever he sets out to do, and will flog no discouragement on his efforts. If they are successful and the ship be recovered, after all, the expert authori- ties who now pronounce it impossible will look somewhat cheaper than Santiago ba- nanas at ten for a cent.
