A MROAD AND SOUND PRINCIPLE, The federal conrts have unhesitatingly nssertad their authority recently in nu- merous eases where the question of their jurisdiction as against that of the state courts was involved. In of the promptness manifestod in some of the instances it seems strange that a doubt should arise as to whether they can b relied on even at all to determine in which the trusts and other combinos of capitalists arc partics to the procecd- ings, view cases Thus, several sheriffs in South Caro- lina, under specific orders of the go ernor of that state, seized for non-pay- ment of taxes property of soveral ra in the handsof r ceivers appointed by the federal court. Henee a confliet of state The federal court at Charleston thereupon, IFebr last, arrested ana fined the sheriffs for con- tempt, and Governor THlman procecded to bring the matter to. tho supreme court by habeas corpus. That court de- nied the writin an opinion sustaining the lower court in every particul In Missouri the United States diotrict court in March last declined to from imprisonment certain judges who refused to levy a spec ordered by that court to pay railway bonds claimed 1o be fraudulent. And yot the refusal of these state repre- sentatives was basod on a clanse of the state constitution oxplicitly prohibiting special lovies in such eases. The federal courts did not hesitate to assert their jurisdiction in these cases, which will serve as an illustration, However, in the c¢ where a New York watch manufacturer, who had re- fused to join the Wateh trust and had been injured in his business by the con- spiracy, appealed to the federal eourts for ss he found that he had no remedy from them. Appealing to the state courts of New York, an attempt was made to throw his case out of court had been done in the United States €O But Judge Patterson of the supremo court of that state overruled tho dom vof the trust. He held that when any such oxists o maliciously injure the business of a competit beceuse he had refused to join them in the commission of unlawful acts the eourts of the state can give him remedy under the common law. This ad principle. It would se also a sound one. It is veadily secn that this decision establishes a patent remedy where the conspiracy is of local offect. But in in- stances whero these eombinations ops ate over several states an appeal for relief can only lie in afederal court. For instance, if a compine in any other state attacks a competitor in Nebraska the citizen thus injured must find redress in the United States courts, if at all. Should the principle stated by Judge Patterson obtain recognition in the fed- eral courts its rigid enforcement would render unnecessary any further legisla- tion in restraint of the abuses these un- lawful combines are enabled to exerciso everywhe It would scem only natural that the attorney general would seck a test of the power he may already have mmand to inaugurate the erusade promised against these iniquitous capitalistic combinations, wero arose and na- release unty as conspiracy is a1 A PLOTECTORATE FOR HAWAIL The latest advices from Honolulu state that Minister Blount has intim that a protectorate for the Haw islands is the proper thing to look for. According to one correspondent Mr. Blount favors a protectorate of the pros- ent government, which shall guard it as well from interference abroad as from revolution av home, and the same au- thority s s that he is convineed of the unselfishness and integrity of the men in control at Honolulu, is in sympathy with the revolution, and has no thought of restoration. If the American mini ter is correctly reprosented these reports he rtainly not carrying out the spirit of his instructions as understood in this coun- try. The understanding here has been that the minister was not to interfere at all in the political affairs of Hawaii; that he was to occupy a position of abso- lute neutrality between the parties, his duties being limited to seeuring protec tion, in any event, to American inter- ests and to preventing the interfecence of any other foreign power in the polit- ical affairs of the islands. If he has counseled or suggested a protectorate he has gone beyond his anthority as the American poople have understood it. It s proper to obsorve, how- ever, that these reports come from sources which are in hear sympathy with the provisional gov- ernment and have always advocated the policy of annoxation, so that their credi- bility is open to doubt. A vrotectorate would be hardly less objectionable thun annexation. The de- parture from the traditional policy of the government would be as great in one case as in tho other, and while a protec- torate would involve us in almost oqual obligations with annexation w3 should get nothing in return for assuring it, It would be interesting to the country to know actly what the vosition of the administration at Washington is on this subject. The Washington corvespon- dent of an eastern paper which has a place in the confidence of the ad- ministration says it is doubtful if President Cloveland Limself has formed any resolution as to the final action of the United States regarding Hawaiian annexation. 1f he finds that the Hawaiians do not as a body desire annexation, says the correspondent, he will promptly abandon it. If, on the other hand, he is convinced that the people desire to become a part of the United States, he is not likely to per- sistently refuse them. Assuming that there is authority for these statements, they give & different aspect to the Hawaiian question from that in which the American people have been regard- ing it for some time past. It has been generally supposed that all thought of annexation had been dis- missed by the administration and that it was the intention to strictly obs a policy of non-interference in Hawaiian affairs, This was accepted by the intel- ligont judgment of the country, with practical unanimity, as wise and sound, aud the new phase which current ve- in is Ve 1 ports give tho situation will emse- quently bo widely disappointing. A majority of the American people, it s not to be doubted, are opposed to either a protectorate annexation, but if compelled toehoose one of these poli- would probably prefer the latter with the count would secure in return for or annoxation something the obligations assumed. WORK OF THE EXTRA SESSION. Tn announcing that he would eall the Pifty-third rress together in Sep- tember President Cloveland made no reference to any other subjest for con- ration at that time than the finan- cial condition. In stating, as hé'was re ported, that this is the only matter now con the country implied that none other would be for the attention of cor extra sion. It is possible, however, that he did not in- tend to be understood, but nply that the financial condition would be iven the foremost place in the consider- tion of the national legislature. At any rate, th s the anthority of the Wash- ing spondent of the Philadel- phia Ledger for saying that the work of the extra session may bo extended to t nsideration of legislation intended to increaso the revenues of the governs ment. Tt is not to be expectoed that any- thing will be accomplished in this direc tion before the v lar session, and it is by no means assured that even then much will be done, but it may be possi- ble to make a beginning at the special session. on cor I'he urgent necessity of increasing the nues of the government, under ex- isting conditions, is recognized by men of all partics, but the problom of how to do this is an extremely diffi- cultand perplexing one, the wise solution of which by the next congress will hardly Bo expeeted by any one faniliar with the quality of statesmanship that will dominate t body. As the cor- respondent to whom reference has been made well says, there is a great diffe herween formulating the bombasti ions and rallying of a partisan platform and prepacing a groat revenue measure to maintain and carr There are plenty the dominant party in con- are capable of doing the is there any one among them having the qualifications to do the latter? The fact, as understood, that the administration to form- niate a revenue measure indicates that the president has not full faith in the ability of tho leaders of tho nes house to perform this task to the sati faction of the administration. The annual vequirement of the government to meet current expenditures amounts 10 $400,000,000. Tt is not now receiving this revenue, and unless something is done to provide it from taxation the government will be compelled to borrow money and issuo interest-hearing bonds. In view of the fact that there is little chance of effecting a general revision of the tarifl, as contemplated by the demo- tic leaders, in time for a new. moeas- > to become operative on July 1, 1804, d that an emergency act might bo passed to take effect at that date. Suchan act, it is proposed, should increase the tax on distitled spirits, for- mented liguors, tobaceo and snuff, place a duty of 1 cent per pound on sugars now coming in free, and restore tea and coffen to the dutiable list, from which they were dropped more than twenty years ago. Undoubtedly a considerable addition to the revenue could be made in this way, but the paity that assumes the responsibility of levying duties upon sugar, tea and coffce takes a very great risk and it is questionable whether tho administration will recommend such a policy. Congress will be convened in September with the primary purpose of dealing with the financial condition, but it seems probable that it will also be cailed on to consider the question of in- creasing the revenue of the government, It will doubtless find the time before the regular session fully ocenpied with the first subject, and it is by no means in that it will be disposed of at the xtra session, notwithstanding the confi- dent predictions of the opposition to the silvor purchasing law. The advocates of repeal ma; sssful in the house, but their chances are not so good in the senate. s 5 almost sacrilege to turn to the practical suggestions that the ap- palling calamity in Washington affords, But therein contained the same old lesson emphasized time and again by death, terror and destruction, heeded for a time, may be, and in some com- munities, only to be soon forgotten. “The building was unsafe.” It had even been condemned. Its use im- periled the lives of its hundreds of oc- cupants. And yet it was used, and the dispate from Washington tell the fearful consequences of this criminal disregard. It is uscless to say now that some one is to blame and must bear the sponsibility. But how many build- ings similarly uasafe and occupied are there in towns and cities everywhere throughout the country! Denunciation of those responsible for their condition who do not heed the lesson set forth in the heartrending account of the Wash- ington disaster is impotent.

CHAIRMAN Bryrus, of the Towar publican state committeo, has announced that ho will call the state convention at as carly a date as will be consented to by majority of the committee. An earnest effort will doubtless be made by the convention to formulate some plan to meet the existing situation on the liguor question in that state, though its specific character cannot now be fore- told. Senator Wilson's term expires in 1805, and the conservative element of does not wish to see his successor a silver advocate or state bank demagogue.

The govern ment confines itself to proclaiming the abso- lute necessity of a largor military establish ment for self-defonse, and it appeals to the patriotism by which all political parties, with the possible exception of the socialists, are unquestionably animated. 1tis by no means cortain that the appeal will bo made in vain Of the oanvass now nearly ovor, thore are soveral foatures which the chancellor would be justified in regarding as auspic fewer than cighty seats will & the unionist radieals, who cept the army bill, if modified by thos ment proposed by Major Hinzo. If this new party o to carry half tho scats which it contests, it could give Caprivi twice as much help as its represontatives able tooffer in the last Reichstaz. Then, again, the sccession from the ¢ organ has ro of candi s, sulted in the nomination favorable to a moditi n of the military ct in thirty Catholic constituencies in Westphalia, the Prussian Rhineland and Silesia. At least half of these candidates are thought likely to succeed. But. of course, gains in the directions mentioned to somo extent, be counter-b liberals, which is looked upon as inevitable. The election is now but five days distant, yet all that ean be foretold, with a close ap- proach to cortaint the refusal of the new Reichstag to pass the army bill i its original form. ¥rom this point of view the dissolution secms to have been a mistake, and the blunder would have been greatly ggravated if the kaiser had continued to attempt to browbeat the eclectors. The utmost that can be hoped for from the rep- resentatives of the people to be chosen on Thursd of next week, is that they may consent to make the me moderate conces- sions which Caprivi would dly have accepted a month ago, but which were then repudiated by the emperor. * *u Bohemian affairs are now assuming a threatening attitude, which mignht become revolutionary if the state of siege should be proclaimed, and if the young Czechs shoula be excluded from all committees of the im- perial delegations.

Bohemia sends her deputies to the Vienna Reichsrath, and itis there that Herr Plen the leader of the German faction, has proposed that no young Czech be chosen to sit in the Deloga- tions. He, like everybody else, understood that the Bohemi: movement led by the young Czech party was directed less against the Austrian government than against the Germans, who, though in the minority in Bohemia, are accused by their adversaries of oppressing the Czech population of the country. The latter 1s strongly opposed to the triple alliance, which ties up Aust Hungary to Germany, and it was to be expected, as reported in the cable dispateh, that the young Czechs would decide to pursue a course of energetic oppo- sition to that alliance or dreibund if the; are admitted to the Delegations.

Each year of that period has seen somo fresh attempt to strain the patience of taxpayer to a greater limit, The armies of Frauce have increased from 1,250,000 men to 4,350,000 Germany has increased hor milita forces in even greater proportion from 1,300,000 to 5,000,000; Iuss in an equal ratio. from 1,100,000 to 4,000.000; Austria from 750,000 to nearly 2,000,000; Ttaly from than 600,000 to more than 00,0005 Turkey from 520,000 to 1,150,000, Belgium from 95,000 to 255,0005 Roumania from 33,000 to 250,000, In all, the avmi Europe have grown from less 000 strong 1o 10! than 00, 0 in- wase of 100 per cent for everydec Manifestly this increase cannot be much longer continued in time of peace without tho financial ruin of some of the smaller nations. Italy has even mnow been forced almost to the verge of bank- ruptey and national debts have been inereased inother countries at an alarming rate. The war expenditure of Russia now reache: 0 as comy the less) s of than 7,000,- s than half that amount at the beginning of the period of militarism ; that of Germany has grown from $10,000,000 to $100,000,000 and more. France has in- creased her war expenditure from 471,000,000 to nearly 700,000,000 francs; England from £19,000,000 to £26,000,000; Austria from 152,- 000,000 francs to 314,000,000, Altogether the increase amounts to about 2,000,000,000 franes of annual expenditure, Tho annual outlay of the Europe of today upon standing armies in a time of peace is between 4,000, 000,000 and 5,000,000,000 francs. If tho re geivers of that money were producers as well as consumenrs f they contributeld to the annual output of Buropean industries, the case would be mitigated: but in a large degree these 22,000,000 men are drones so far as concerns the industries of the continent, and ser v dead weight, so many mouths to be fed and 80 many men to be keptin 1dleness, a drain upon the nation's | capability in manufacture or agriculture, | The Greek people are among patriotic people of the world lent and even their penal institutions are largely built up through gifts of wealthy and devoted sons at home and abroad, It is not likely, therefore, that the country will be suffered to go into bankruptey for the want of 11,000,000 francs to pay in June the semi-annual interest on the national debt.
