4 THE EVENING STAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1898-14 PAGES. THE EVENING WASHINGTON. WEDNESDAY.. November 16, free as yet from their silver entanglement, nor in position to turn their backs on the accredited party leadership. The fight for silver is still on. The men who are honest and in earnest are not dismayed by this second drubbing. They confess that they are slightly Gisfigured, but assert, in the language of the poet, that they are st!ll in the ring. The eastern democrats, and especially the New York variety. are not to be permitted to change their leaders aa easily as they are sometimes able to change their principles. Colonel Bryan is right about this. A party cannot throw its regularly chosen leaders over so easily. It discredits itself rather than them when it endeavors in the absence of specifications to make them the scapegoats of its disasters and disgruntle- ments. A party which cannot take hitter medicine without making a wry face, as in similar circumstances a man, lacks stam- ina. Sympathy does not go out to it. Suc- cess does not wait upen it. The Nebraska leader says that the Chi- cago platform still lives. Mr. Bailey and Chairman Jones say the same thing. They are candid and resolute men. It does not mueh matter what Mr. Croker says, be- cause he does not travel in the same class with them. When in majority in national conventions they can make him say any- thing they please. So that with Colonel Bryan still undaunted, and Mr. Bailey with his flag still up, and Senator Jones reas- serting the silver shibboleth, the party shufflers in the east are easily certain of eighteen months’ more of anxiety.

Now comes the opportunity to extend a souvenir of the city’s appreciation of the regiment's servic that has preceded. The participation of the Presi in these exercises is highly ap- propriate and pleasing.

Colonel Bryan has recovered sufficiently from his “military lockjaw” to speak to the country on the subject of the elections. He shows the effect of his recent indispo- sition. The deliverance lacks vigor and a certain courage which the country has come to assoctate with Colonel Bryan. It may be that he has done as well as could be with a poor case. Genus f{tself-has its limitations. Mark Tapley, who stands for cheerfulness and undiminished confidence under all difficulties, is a man of the imag- ination, and does not figure as an Amer!- can politician. Even Dickens, with his broad gift of caricature, would not have attempted to put Tapley through the paces of politics. Still, tho.gh with less than his wunted vigor, Colonel Bryan has done well to speak. If it accomplishes no other pur- pose. the deliverance will serve to remind certain eastern democrats that they are not sented as having rendered no aid at all to the United States forces. The men were thieves and gluttons. They purloined everything they could lay hands on, gorged themselves with Uncle Sam’s grub, and then flunked when the fighting began. (3) ‘They conducted themselves like savages in the presence of Spanish prisoners. Spect il mention was made of the way in which it was alleged they had behaved toward the sailors from Admiral Cervera’s fleet when the hel, men were cast ashore after the Span’ nips went down. It was stat- ed that for the intervention of the h but crews of the American ships the Cubans would b ve butchered the Spaniards. charges have now, one by one, been Gen- aawton, Wheeler, Ludlow, and lastly Miles, all make acknowledgment of services received at the hands of Gen- eral Garcia and his forces, and General Miles in his lengthy report states that not only did General Garcia take orders from him, but succeeded in obedience to them in keeping a large force of Spaniards out of Santiago after the American investiture of the city began. As to the alleged pilfering and gormandiz- mg by the Cubans, General Wheeler has explained that they merely picked up in plain view of everybody what had been thrown away. The Americans found them- selves too heavily clad for the tropics, and upon landing and beginning their march in- land began stripping themselves of all ex- tras. The Cubans, who were nearly naked, gladly snatched up what their deliverers thus discarded, and clothed themseives with it. There was doubtless some petty thiev- ery, but Gen. Wheeler explains away the gravest of the charges. The Cubans proved to be healthy feeders, because for the first time in three years they found themselves at a bountiful table. The last, the most serious charge of all, has now been refuted by Admiral Cervera himself, whose report of the destruction of his fleet and all the attending circum- stances is before the public. After describ- ing the pitiful plight of himself and his men, who had been cast ashore naked, the admiral sa insurgents had captured about two and with them five or six The insurg which | thankfully surrendered to the Amer- i told them. ‘If you have surgeons with you, Kindly permit them to attend to he wounded, several of whom are in a very bad condition.’ ’ hundred mer who were ¥ that instead thieves and savage of being cowards and cording to the wild yarns of the hour, the men commanded by General i cording official _re- ports, carried themselves like soldiers and were of service to the United States forces. Traducing the Cubans has so far not been eminently successful. — The Market House Fire. It is clear, from all the accounts of the fire at the market house this morning, that the fire department, by its quick and inte!- ligent work, spzred the city from a disas- trous conflagration. The conditions for a general blaze were propitious. The flames originated in an area which is not easy of access. The market house was at the time partly surrounded by wagons, which interfered with the work of the steamers and the firemen. Then, too, the avenues of approach to the scene of the fire are : congested thoroughfares, and the companies were unable to mak@their best speed in reaching the spot. In a remarkably time after the alarm was turned in, when the conditions confronting the department are considered, the fire was under control and the loss reduced to a minimum. The city would have suffered severely from the destruction of this establishment, which stands in such close relation to the foo! supply of the community, and it is a cause for congratulation that the structure and its contents were so slightly damaged. —___ + 0 = The Doukhabortsi, a Rus: sect, who propose to leave their native soil because it is against their principles to bear arms, opose to come to this country.

It is ordered that the city post office be removed on Saturday, November 26, into its new quarters on Pernsyivania avenue which have been under construction for seven years. There is good reason to be- lieve that the removal will be effected on schedule time, without any interruption in the process of gathering and distributing the mails and that by the next morning the citizens of Washington will be permitted tae use cf a structure which for post office pur- peses more rearly confurms to the local re- quirements than any facilities whicn have been graated since the office was evicted from the general post cffice building. It is Lot so certain, however, that the building acc to | as it stands and as it will be used will prove an ertirely satisfactory home for this establishnent. The Star has recently peinted to scme serious defects in its con- struction which affect the health and pos- sibly menace the lives of those who -will have business to transact within its walls. It is of course impessible that the repairs necessary to correct these faults should be made in seascn or will even be undertaken before the city post office force takes pos- session. It is not to be anticipated thai any step toward the curing of the evident evils which exis: teday in the building will be teken voluntarily by the Treasury Depart- ment witaout congressional authorization or direction. These changes involve heavy expenditures and may become the subject of the deepest consideration by the highest authorities, for they not only affect che im- ; Mediate demands for the perfection of the structure, but they oring into question the record of the supervising architect's office during te past few years for efficiency and economy ana promptness. Meanwhile the people of Washington will be grateful for access to a post vince estabushment which presents a show of modern conditions. ————>+2-—___ There is, of* course, no definite alliance between Great Britain and America.

The red shirt and shotgun campaign of the white d-mocrats in North Carolina ts over. They have elected a large majority of the members of the legislature anf seven ef the nine members of Congress. They have also by force and violence taken pos- ‘ion of the municipal government of the city of Wilmington, and they would doubt- less have elected the governor of the state tad it been the year to choose state officers. And when the work which they set out to accomplish was done. and they had gained the objects which they claimed were neces- sary to intelligent rule, they permitted th unbridled passions of the mob to take con- trol and disgrace the state with a saturnalia of blood and murder. North Carolina is one of the southern states which has benefited largely by emi- gration from the north and by the estab- lishment of manufacturing enterprises. The security to life and property which existed in North Carolina no longer prevails. Ev- ery man who was shot down on the streets of Wilmington will keep $1,000,000 of capital away from the state. Immigration will be checked and the development of the state's resources will halt. & community cannot engage in riot and bloodshed and murder and still remain a desirable home for men who love order and for industries that de- mand peace. ——_ +2 —____ They Should Be Congratulated. From the Chicago Tribune, The gold democrats of Delaware are en- titled to credit for the part they played in saving that state from the disgrace of Bry- anism. The course they pursued in voting for the republican candidates in preference to the nominees of the free silver party proved them patriotic, logical and courage- ous, and they had the satisfaction of seeing that their vot ere effective. ——_ es _____ Independents in the City. From the Minneapolis Times. The independent voter has become to be a potent facter in city elections, and his in- fluence will be still more potently exercised in future elections. He has no respect for What is known as “regularity,” and takes no stock in the machine theory that to fail to “vote straight” is to destroy the purpose of the party. He sees that sustaining what- ever the party bosses may propose leads to the betrayal of the party cause, to say nothing of the party honor, quite as much as opposition to “regularity.” ————_+ eo + Must Keep Faith With Cuba.
