* THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1898-14 PAGES. -- Editor. THE EVENING STAR has a regular d permanent Family Cireutatton much more than the combined cir- enlation of the other Washington dailies, As a Vews and Advertising Mediam it has no competitor. 7 Im order to avoid delays, on ae- count of personal absence. letters to THE STAR shouid not be addressed to any tudividual connected with the office. but simpiy to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Rusiness Depart- rding to tenor or purpose. == = — Now That the Work i Done. tent to which Europe is stirred by at be Paris 1s probably not accu- ertained from these first One may easily that interest everywhere is quick- The withdrawal of an oid and de- cayed power like Spain from a quarter of the globe where so much is developing, and the appearance in her there of a young and vigorous power in the front rank of progress, must be taken into account. It means much. European affairs in their rately outgivings on the subject. to asi believe plac oriental connections are invoived, and will have to be adjusted to meet the new condi- tions But why should any European power justly feel itself aggrieved by the growth of the United States and the purpose it mani- fests to s s policy of expansion in ac- cordance with the plain dictates of prudence and reason? The fied of progress is in a large measure open. Europe would doubt- le be very glad to have the United States today call a halt upon itself, cancel the who ork done at Paris, retire within the old shell and announce the intention of re- maining there. That would remove a for- mi ble competitor for the rapidly growing trade of the orient. But the United States had a perfect right to enter that field, and pow that it has dene so it owes no apolo- gies to anybody, nor will any be offered, »t paid upon demand. Nor is the United States likely to declare itself hurriedly as to the future. Why should it? Its new possessions are to it most decidedly new, and time will be neces sary to formulate a thorough policy both as to them and as to its larger self with them Included. Meanwhile it be enough for the ou world to know—and the fact is patent enough—that the United States is now a power to be reckoned with in all the large calculations: that its interests are greater and broader than ever before: that its policies are humane and enlightened. ad that with every desire to be a good neighbor, in the orient as elsewhere, it has the capacity and the disposition to take care of its interests by force if necessary. There is little if any danger from with- out. Our chief concern now—and that is hot great—relates to sentiment from with- in. To what extent are those who oppose the administration here at home willing to go in an effort to balk or embarrass it in this momentous matter? What line will the opposition take when the treaty reaches the Senate? What comfort will Europe take from this advertisement of American ‘ivision on this point? What calculations as to the next presidential race will be based upon it? European grumpiness is not likely to overstep bounds. Are there many Americans willing to do what Eu- rope wisely abstains from doing? The rec- ord on the subject when made will be one to remember. ———_ +e —_____ The District in Congres: ‘ext Monday will witn last s is tne opening of sion of the 55th Congress and it is not too muc. for the people of the Dis- t to expect that the work of legislating local neeeds will be s at sed vi usly.

The Atlant cat uth representa- tive southern newspaper, loyal to its sec- tion and to the democratic party, and very much ected throughout the country makes some observations on the riots in the arolinas, and rejoices in northern con- Servatism on the subject. It seeks to divide ¥ for those deplorable occur- attributes them in a measure to the appointment, in opposition to local sentiment. of negroes to office. It deals gently with the President, representing. him as making such appointments against his better judgment, and only in obedience to strong party pressure. Mr. Hanna is indl- cated as the man who has engineered the blunder. The Constitution then says: “James G Blaine was the only republican who had the right idea about building up a republican party. in’ the s aking once to the late Ge1 P. B. Young. he sald: ‘It Iwas ‘President. would break your solid south. 1 would offer good federal places to such men as yourself, Brown and others of your stand. ing.” ” This is an unfortunate citation, because it brings up the question of Mr. Blaine's defeat for the presidency, by whom accom- plished, and by what means. The south accomplished that. She defeated Mr. of promine Blaine. And yet the southern men were very fond of him, and he of them. They were, and so acknowledged themselves, deeply in his debt. He and Mr. Randall, although on opposite sides of the fence, worked together, the one in the Speaker's chair and the other on the floor of the House, to kill the first so-called Force bill. The south was full of gratitude at the time, bat afterwards assisted in the campaigns which resulted in the rout of both of her benefactors. She voted to put Mr. Carlisle over Mr. Randall, and to deny to Mr. Blaine the supreme object of his ambition. In the case of Mr. Blaine, he could not of course expect southern democrats to vote for him for President, but he had a right io expeect fair treatment at their hands, and this he did not receive. The Force bill, as they complained, would deny them their rights at the ballot-box. He as Speaker of the House assisted in blocking the meas- ure, and their return for this was to take possession of the polls when he ran for President, and by terrorism practiced on the republicans of the south secure the solid eiectoral strength of the section for Mr. Blaine's opponent and thereby accom- plish Mr. Biaine’s defeat. But the injury inflicted proved to be far greater than of personal moment, great as thet was. The south that year, and by counting the negroes out at home and counting them in here, brought into na- tional office Grover Cleveland. But for the south, and her strength in the electoral coliege based upon a population to a large part of which she denied the right of suifrage, Mr. Cleveland would have re- turned to Buffalo after his term of office as governor of New York expired, and the country, the south included, would have been spared what the south especiaily con- siders the blight of his national leadership. ——-- +02] Gossip About Mr. Reed. Speaker Reed, who is at all times and in all aspects a very interesting man, is just the subject of more than the usual amount of discussion in democratic circles. It is conceded that he will again be Speaker, but radicaily different things are expected of him when he lifts the gavef over the next House. On the one side are those who predict that he will use his office to thwar whole foreign policy of the administration. ‘The steps he will take to do this are not indicated, but the prediction is none the less positive on that account. The argument advanced is thai Mr. Reed's political career is practicaly closed, that there is nothing beyond the Speakership for him, that he does not like the President. and will busy himself henceforth playing for even. On the other side are those who predict that he will do just the other thing. They, too, assert that he has gone as high as he hope to go; but in their opinion spirit is broken, and he will offer his shoul- ders obediently for any burden the admin- istration may choose to place upon them. They assert that he will practically be put under bonds for good behavior before being allowed to take the chair again. There is Ukewise 2 revival of that old guff about Mr. Reed and Mr. Bailey. The Speaker in this cackle is represented as im- posing Mr. Bailey on the minority as leader in a spirit of grim jest. Mr. Bailey, it is asserted, has received his distinction from the republican Speaker, instead of froin his own party. This, of course, is the rankest nonsense. Mr. Bailey's leadership of his party In the present House is the result of his party's formal pronouncement in his favor, He defeated Mr. MeMiilin fur the honor in regular caucus by a large major- ity, and the Speaker In his committee ap- pointments was necessarily guided by that expression of the democracy. But Mr. Bailey is not the first Jemocrat accused of yielding to the hypnotic in- fluences of Mr. Reed. The same charge was brought against Bourke Cockran when and the basis of it was . Reed's appreciation of a bright man, who spoke well and manifested fine capac- ities for public business, In this irresponsible twaddle Mr. Reed is made to play several parts—both a Judas and a aumbled servitor to his own par! and a joker to the democracy. Those who Rnow the Speaker best do not in now artictpate that he will play either of the ited discreditable roles. ———_+ + +—____ Postal Betterments. e annual report of Perry S. Heath, First Assistant Postmaster General, prin ed in anot r column of T S.ar, evidences substantial improvement in all departments under his supervision.

A great boon has been extended to pensi in the order Girect- ing post offices to cash pension ch par. Of all Mr. Heath's recomm none will meet with more earnest support than that which recommends a -lassifiea- tion of the post office clerks along with the unmi evidence rvice, carriers. These clerks deserve the protec- tion which the civil service affords. It is management of the rural free de- y that Mr Heath has most fully demonstrated his- abliity.

Year after year the report of the annual cperations of the life saving service dem- onsirates the value of the money invest- ment represented in its establishment and maintenance. ‘The report for 1808, however, comes at a particularly timely season, on the heels of the first great storm of the season, which has caused a large amount of damage, and has given to the “coast guard” the hardest task thus far of the year. It is always interesting to note ‘he vast difference between the money spent on the service and the money saved through its efforts. The showing has grown some- what monotonous in {ts ever-insistent rey- elation of a shrewd business bargain, but it is comforting, nevertheless, to observe how far governmental effort in this direc- tion discloses the value of organization and discipline. This year the service cost $1,- 6. But this sum includes $56,052 pent in maintaining special war stations for coast signal work, so that the total does not accurately represent the true cost of the establishment with relation to the country’s commerce. Deducting this extra, the year's expense account foots up to $1,440,721.35. The vessels wrecked in th Scope of the service's operations were, with their cargoes, valued at $7,368,095, of which the salvage was worth $6,588,356, or over four times the total regular cost of the ser- vice. This showing takes no account, of course, of the human lives saved incident- ally, aggregating 4,055. Were not a dollar of value saved through the efforts of the service, these lives would alone far more than pay for the costly establishment. An interesting feature of this year's report is the showing that whereas there were more wrecks during the twelve months than in previous years there were fewer losses of life. This seems to reflect favorably upon the improved methods of life saving, and perhaps the greater efficiency of the per- sonnel of the service. Or it may only mean that the wrecks, though in greater num- ber, were so sktuated as to permit @ more general saving of life. But the public, Jon accustomed to the good work of this sys- tem, will doubtless prefer to believe the former assumption to be true. ——- + = ——__ The demand for a Medicine Lodge in some vast political wilderness has more resigned pathos than poetic enthusiasm about it. ae Aguinaldo wiil probably object to the in- surgents being thrown in with the Phil- ippines as a merely incidental considera- tion. —+ +2 — - It cannot be that Cuba’s suspicion of this country is due to a fear that lotteries and bull fights may be suppressed. ie ae gegen There are gratifying signs of a disposi- tion in North Carolina to make the peace treaty unanimous. a ee The new post office is not completed; merely open for business.

The charge that plural marriages are being solemnized in violation of the state constitution is not a charge against a dem- ocrat, it is not a charge against a candi- date; it is net a charge against any indi- vidual. It is a serious charge against a whole people, against a church and its offi- elals. It is no excuse to exonerate the old men of the church by placing the blame upon the younger ones. If the practice of sol- empizing plural marriages is still going on, as vontemporary declares that it is, the leading officials of the organization must know of it; the The i » responsible, anyhow. uation that Mormon elders are performing such forbidden sin defiance of the law reflects npon almost the entire membership of the church.
