THE EVENIN G STAR, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11, THE EVE 5 WASHINGTON. November 11, ase FRIDAY Editor. CROSBY S. NOYE: THE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent Family Circulation much more than the combined cir- { enlation of the other Washington dailies. As a News and Advertising Mediam it has no competitor. c7Im order to avoid delays, on ac- count of personal absence, letters to THE STAR should not be addressed to any individual connected with the office, but simply to THE STAR, or the Editorial! or Business Depart- ments, according to tenor or purpose, North Carolina's Shame. ‘The situation in Wilmington, N. C., as it stands today, calls for emphatic condemna- tion of the course pursued by the white citizens who have been seeking to put an end to negro rule in that city and else- where through the state. Whatever may have been their provocation, they have re- sorted to the most radical of measures without necessity, and bloodshed has been the logical consequence, the responsibility for which rests squarely upon them and m alone. The anomalous political conditions preva- lent in many parts of the state assuredly discon- gave the better classes cause for tent and protest. The measures adopted to put an end to negro domination were start but were apparently for a time kept within the letter of the criminal law. The avowed purpose of the demonstration was to frighten the negroes away from the polls in order that a legislature might be chosen by the whites to pass laws which should prevent a recurrence of the condi- tions comp! ned of by the white The parading of red-shirted and armed men, the holding of meetings, the delivery of inflammatory and threatening speeches, jences of a de- together with frequent ev termination on the part of the whites to carry out their program at any cost, all had the desired effect of keeping the ne- groes away from the polls on election day, they having previously withdrawn their local tickets. The result of the voting was the triumph of the whites, which assured that the program of legislation and the po- Htical repression of the blacks would be fully carried out. Up to this point the whites acted with what, under the local circumstances, might be considered as some measure of restraint. But, as always happens in such case, the spirit of lawlessness once invoked would not down. Not satisfied with their victory, the whites lost no time, after the clection, in baiting the negroes whom they had awed into submission and who, according to all acee were anx only to be left alone and permitted to work and live. They took immediate opportunity to order the expulsion of a libelous negro editor and to demand resignations of the mayor and the chief of police. They thus overturned a republican form of govern- ment in their pre-election proceedings, and then deliberately created a condition after tion which was no less than anarch ‘The descent on the newspaper office which was the focus of their rage was useless and its burning was a crime.

He could logically have called upon the authori: American control of the Philippines. What effect, if any, it will have on him remains to be seen. Under the spur of it he may decide to include Madrid in his route. Or a fit of diseretion may seize him and impel him to mark even Cadiz off his card. In any event there will be no cause for worr the United States. Why should ? So far as Spain is concerned we are easily and completely the masters of the situation. She is as helpless as ever a vanquished nation was. Complaint, which, as yet, has found no echo worthy of no- tice, is all that remains to her. So far as outside powers are concerned we are quite as strong as the occasion demands. Our urances from England are all that we could desire. She is pleased at the pros- pect of having us for a near neighbor in the east; and says so. Japan is not dls- turbed. So what does it matter whether Germany, or France, or Russia, or the three combined, would like a consultation on the subject? The United States will not sub- mit the question to European arbitration at the demand of anybody. The best assurance of peace is always a thorough preparation for a scrap. The United States is fit. Its navy is in tiptop condition, and the people have just spoken at the polls in a voice which shows how heartily they approve of the country’s new policy and of how far they would go to sustain it as against outside interference. ngland is fit—never more so. Her ship: are coaled and provisioned, and their decks swarm with men eager with expectation. The English people are as solidly behind Lord Salisbury as the American people are behind P: nt McKinley. Here, then, are the con of the much-talked-of Anglo-s ance. Will the German eniperor, returning from the birthplace and the theater of activity of the Prince of Peace, care to test its strength in an armed way Republican Control of the Senate. The most pronounced result of Tucsda ys balleting is the large gain made by the republicans in the Senate, the control of which has been in question since 1893. In that year enough democrats were elected as a result of the landslide of 1892 to wrest the organization from the republicans. The democrats had then 44 seats, the republi- is 38, the populists and there were 3 cant, giving th: democrats just half cf the full Senate and a majority of the oc- cupied ts. After March 4, 1895, the stood 44 republicans, democ: A 4 independents and 1 vacane giving the republicans a ti? of the fuil Senate and a majority of 1 over the Senate as organized. This majority, however, wag soon lost through the election of Kenny, democrat, from Delaware to fill ths vacancy, and be- cause of the indispusition of some of the silver republicans to act with their party. Accordingly a compromise was effected 1+ tween the republicans and democrats whereby the former secured control of the committees and the latter retained the o: ficial org: After M the Senate stood 43 republi ndependents and 1 vacancy republicans had a plurality but lac of a majorit owing to the defee of the silver republicans who bolt2d the St. Louis convention. The compromise be- tween the two main parties as to commit- a tees and crganization was continued in force. According to latest estimais, the Senate after March 4 next will stand demo the legislature ard no a such as produced the vacancies in 1 Washington, Montana and Wy in Delaware and in 1897 in Oregon. This estimate is based on the assumption that West Virginia Nebraska have chosen republican legislatures, which is not yet certain. The Nebraska legislature is in serious doubt. Thus the republicans will have a majority for the control of the both in committees and organization. They will also have a sufficient hold-over strength to give them the best chance for control after March 4, 1001, On that date ts 110 ind »pend- j elec occur in gz. in ents, choose and clear Senate, they will have, according to the present showing, %S seats to 14 held over by the democrats and 8 by the ind2pendents, leav- ing 30 to be filled by the si es chosen by the legis mw).

However much It may concern England and France, the German emperor's route on his return from Palestine is of no great concern to the United States. At any rate there need not and probably will not be any official inquiries on the subject. He is a spectacular man, and loves exceedingly to create excitement in the world.

The dem- ocratic senators whos: terms expire at th time are from practically certain demo ratic states, except Delaware. The repub- licans would have a chance to secure a seat from the indepenasnts in South Dakota, now occupied by Senator Pettigrew. Thus it is to be seen that unless another nd- slide strikes the republican party in 1200, wiping away the landmarks as did that of isvz, the chances are very strongly in favor of continued republican control of the Sen- ate until at least March 4, 1908. - ee The New York farmer has now succeeded in adjusting matters so that the state will maintain a fair moral average, while a trip to the metropolis will be as exciting as ever. oe If anybody save Croker had stirred up a Judiciary fight in connection with the regu- lar campaign he would be a subject for Tammany discipline at this time. a namaker will be tempted to give of getting the public to accord his statesn ip as much consideration as it shows his advertisements. ~~ +02 After its recent experiences the Maria Teresa is, in spite of all assurances, some- what shy about getting mixed up with this country’s naval organization. —_—_~ ee The rural voter will doubtless be indig- nant over the recent gas explosion at the Capitol when he learns that gas costs 12! cents per 100 cubic feet. ee On looking over the results of the recent | race, Richard Croker has reached the con- clusion that he will have to discharge a few jockeys.

Not only have the dispatches bean freshly descriptive caused a stir in Europe, and is connected in popular speculation with the question of of the latest happenings, keeping the read- ers of The Star as closely in touch with the | situation as though it were developing in this immediate neighborhood, but they have been written from an absolutely impartial point of view, the chief desire being to give the facts and not to prejudice the public mind in favor of one side or the other. ee Luchbeni was sentenced to impris- oument for life he cried, “Long live an- archy.”” This may have been due to his ambition to be as great an expense to the Swiss government as possible. ——__ +22 —____ It is to be hoped that the kaiser and the sultan did not exchange any sympathetic suggestions that the aggressive spirit of America ought to be curbed. oe Richard Croker’s tenacious claims ind!- ed that he is one of the very few people When who prefer to wait till tomorrow for to- day's news.

Rear Ad m Miller recently pretty accurately voiced the general sentiment of the nation when he said: “The Nicaragua canal is of prime import- ance to our navy. A country which has so vast a coast line on two oceans needs a route by which warships can be transferred from ocean to ocean without incurring th necessity of circamnavigating a continent. The Nicaragua canal will be built in eight years. It is the only practicable passage.’ rom his profession, quite naturally, the speaker considers the matter from a’ war point of view: but in the interests of peace— the world’s peace—as noted the Nicu- ragua canal is more of a necessity than even as contemplated in the anticipation of a possible wholly just war—one strictly of national self-defense. The more the true helpful interests of men and nations are furthered, the more the base and brutal in- terests, their instincts crushed out, are ef- fectually thrust in the background. The chief difficulty with the Nicaragua’ route, by general agreement, is found to be in the establishment of a port at Greytown, where shifting sands render navigation difficult.
