Mr. Cannon's Keynote. There is no fault to be found with Mr. Cannon on the score of candor. Ti?ere never is. He is accurately described In the phrase, a plain, blunt man. He tukes his own view of questions, and expresses it In his own way. He leaves no man in doubt as to his attitude or meaning. If he Is for you he Is very much that way; if against you. a sturdy opponent. His character anC straight forwardness are conceded on all hands. As a standpatter Mr. Cannon Is among the most robust. This latest deliverance makes nothing plainer than that, for him. the tariff as it stands is all right. As he believes, while good times reveai a gain, the highest schedule should remain. Stand patism can go no further. According to this gospels the time for revising the tariff is in the day of panic or depression. At such a time would the revision be downward or upward? The question answers itself. On the question raised by Mr. Gompcrs, Mr. Cannon speaks with equal Irankness. He is opposed to the anti-Injunction propo sition of Mr. Gompers, and gives his rea sons. With much force, too, he presents the claims of his party upon all labor, organ ized and unorganized, in connection with the national policies which have wrought so bountifully for the whole country. In this way he sets the record of his party for what it has done and is still doing for labor against the one thing upon which Mr. Gom pers bases his alliance with the democratic party. This argument, Including the exam ination of the anti-injunction bill urged by Mr. Gompers, wili be repeated by Mr. Cannon in his canvass of the country, and the reply to It by Mr. Gompers and his dem ocratic allies will be read with much in terest. Mr. Cannon, both because of his long ex perience In politics and his levelheadedness, was to be expected to handle his own presidential boom with sagacity. That he is proud of the attitude of his home people on the subject Is an easy guess. Who in his place wouldn't be? But he' sees the point. The thing to do is to win the com ing tight for the House; and he Is girding up his loins for that. -There is time and to spare for considering 11108. He states the case very clearly, and from his statement one may be advised of what his course is to be. Another republican House will mean another term as Speaker for Mr. Cannon, and that will mean a contestant for the republican nomination for President of marked ability In an office of great power. The Union Station and Street Cars. When the announcement was made, a few weeks ago, that the Baltimore and Ohio road would begin to use"the new union sta tion on the first of September notwithstand ing Its Incomplete condition. The Star ex pressed the hope that such a move would be carefully considered In advance, in view of the possibility of serious public discom fort and especially on account of the lack of adequate street car facilities at the new station. The statement Is now officially niadu that the B. and O. will wait until spring before using the new building, the officials having taken cognizance of the probability that the Immediate change would impose a serious hardship upon the traveling public. This being the case, it is to be hoped that Congress will immediately upon convening pass some sort of legislation permitting the street railway companies to readjust their tracks to the new conditions and prepare to give the public the best possible service when the station is opened for use. It has been stated that eight months will be re quired by the traction companies to put their new lines into operation from the date of the passage of the legislation, owing to the heavy demand upon the steel mills and the necessity of sinking special foundations for the tracks through the filled ground in front of the station building. Thus even It the necessary enactment is perfected early in December it may be August before the cars are running upon the new tracks around the station plaza and giving pas sengers access to all parts of the city with out inconvenience. The failure of Congress to provide for this change of conditions long In advance of the actual necessity Is inexplicable save on the ground that certain interests thought to seize the opportunity of this urgently re quired legislation to secure the enactment of other propositions affecting the traction service of the District. Had the public Interests alone been considered there would liave been legislation year before last. There was abundant opportunity last winter to produce the required law in season for the station opening, but delays were encoun tered and the session closed without action. It this process Is to be repeated Indefinitely the public will be treated to the delectable spectacle of a model union station in Wash it gton with a street car service in conjunc tion that is disgraceful to the capital. It is to be said to the credit of the traction companies that they are working harmon iously to serve the convenience of the peo ple, at a heavy expenditure which will yield no Increase In business, and It is duo to them to permit the speedy performance of the work that will eventually be required of them. When Russian soldiers are called upon to whip women In the streets it Is remark able that the disaffection of the troops is not greater. An Increase of $1.000,000 In Oyster Bay assessments proves what a good thing It Is for a community to have distinguished residents. Macedonia. A dispatch from Sofia, printed In The Btar yesterday, stating that the troubles between the Greeks and Bulgarians in Macedonia have broken out afresh sug gests that the entire Macedonian question may again become acute as an Item In the European situation. In the usual consid eration of this problem the chief animosity of the Christian peoples of the -world Is directed at the Sultan of Turkey, who, tt la generally believed, ta oppressing his Christiana In the great province stretching 'west from the Bosphorus and lying be tween Greece and Bulgaria. This Is the main body of the territory known as Tur key In Europe and contains a very large percentage of Christians. A close examina tion of the ease reveals the fact that the Turks themselves are not mainly responsi ble for the outrages which occasionally shock the world, but that the Macedonians are the victims of tkelr rival would-be rescuera, the Greeks and the Bulgarians. The trouble arises from the conflicting claims of two church hierarchies. Prose lyting Is oonducted by them on a great scale and by means which do not appeal to the modern conception of freedom of conscience. A raiding band of Greeks sweeps Into a Macedonian village and forces the entire community to become converts to that faith. In a few days or weeks Bulgarians appear and. eluding the Turkish patrols, attack the offending vil lage and exterminate Its Inhabitants. Some times the process Is reversed. The unfor- ^ tunate Macedonians are caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. Many of them have turned Turks or adopted the Moslem religion In order the more surely to secure the protection of the Turkish government. These raiding bands rush over the country with a certain facility de spite the maintenance of a large Turkish army In the province. Occasionally the sultan's for.-es take a hand themselves In the- massacre of Christians, but as a rule the porte Is content to allow the rival Christian forces to contend for the record of shedding the most heretic blood. No solution of the Macedonian problem will ever be found until the powers of Kurope take full possession of the province and drive out all three of the persecutors, Turks, Bulgarians and Greeks, and estab lish a strong government capable of main taining order. This will be no easy task, for a fourth element Is Involved, the Al banians. who, lying west of Macedonia, are likely at any time to raid the province on their own account. They owe allegiance tj the sultan, but yield it grudgingly. They arc feared by the Turks. Any protectorate over Macedonia, to be effective, must be ba?ed for a long time upon military occu pation by troops that can be relied upon to punish all offenders thoroughly and with out discrimination. The difficulty of such an enterprise is the greater because the Bulgarian propaganda for the recovery of Macedonia is national and patriotic. The government at Sofia Itself encourages the movement and lends It all possible aid, un officially but none the less openly. An ef fective international Intervention may have to include the suppression of Bulgaria and the disciplining of Greece as well as the elimination of that anomalous remnant styled Turkey In Europe. The Busslan Army. The disclosure of the fact that the woman who was brutally whipped by soldiers in St. Petersburg Is not of American descent and is not known In this country does not In the least degree lessen American horror over the affair or weaken the sentiment that Russia Is in a bad way when Its army com mits such outrages. It may not matter to the members of the cxar's forces what Americans think of their conduct, but It does matter to the Russian government what is felt by the civilized world, and the American opinion is merely an example of the feeling that Is sweeping over all na tions. A tremendous International demand for the cure of the atrocious conditions In the Russian empire Is In process of forma tion. It may not take the Bhape of active intervention. It may not assume even the form of unofficial requests that the cxar lessen the rigors of the military despotism which has lately been evolved out of the turmoil. But that It will have Its effect, either In checking the excesses of the Im perial forces or encouraging the revolution ists, is not to be doubted. There is no dis counting the great moral force of public opinion, and no censorship can avail to bar fronj Russia a clear exposition of the attitude of the world. The whipping of Mile. Smirnoff as de scribed in the press dispatches was prob ably merely a bit of characteristic military rage. If the truth were known hundreds of such outrages have probably been commit ted by the "loyal" troops of the czar's army In various parts of Russia. The sol diery are hated there even more cordially than In Germany, where the uniform Is the sign manual of tyranny over civilian citi zenship. It was officially announced a day or two ago as proof of the failure of the manifesto Issued by the late duma that some 300,000 recruits had been enrolled, showing, according to the authorities, that the people are perfectly willing to serve their czar In his troubled administration of the empire. If this Is true, that such a number of soldiers have been enlisted, it is undoubtedly true as well that they have been dragooned Into the ranks by the bru tal methods common to the Russian mili tary service. A general course of forcible enlistments, such as filled the ranks of the army for the Japanese war, can have no good effect In Russia, even If it serves the immediate pur pose of bringing the regiments and brigades up to full strength. 8uch soldiers are potential mutineers and are dangerous to the crown. Their enlistment by force leaves bitter resentments In the vil lages from which they have been wrested or beguiled. The process is certain to arouse the fiercest animosities of the peasantry. Even the fanatical believers in the Infalli bility of the 'little father" are weakened in their faith when their sons or fathers or brothers are taken from them to Buffer the tyrannies of barracks life or the horrors of service In Siberia. The duma may have been futile In its appeal, but that appeal was nevertheless an expression of the sen timent of the people of Russia today, that army srvlce Is a burden that is to be thrown oft if possible. It is declared that there is no reason why the railway car of the future should not be as safe as engineering science can make it. There is no good reason why the rail way car of the present does not answer to the same description. American politicians fall to see nearly as much Importance In a conference between the Emperor of Germany and the King of England as there Is In a five-minute confab at Sagamore Hill. It is often easier for a prosecuting at torney to make a reputation in a simple murder trial than in a more complicated case involving the rights and safety of the entire public. The Argentine Republic can be sincerely complimented by Secretary Root's assur ance that he traveled all that distance to distribute kind words. New Jersey is giving an attention to the garbage dumpers that shows a proper recognition of the seashore bathers' Im portance as a source of revenue. Judge Gaynor has evidently observed that the governorship of New York is one of the most uncertain positions in public life. The Ciar of Russia is a typical specimen of the man who doesn't believe In reading the newspapers. It is hard to work up any sympathy for the weak, trusting man who gets buncoed by a matrimonial advertisement. Oysters and Geography. The following paragraph from the Rich mond Tlmes-Dlspatch Is worthy of special consideration: "In Minneapolis there Is much pride and Joy over an oyster weighing ninety-eight and a half pounds. V.'ho ever heard of any Oregon oysters, no matter what they weigh, comparing with a Chesapeake bivalve? You might Just as well say that an elephant Is better to eat than a lamb. But Just sup pose those Mlnneapolltans could eat a Lynn haven or Mobjack bay oyster once, what a shout would come from that land which now has only Oregonian Ignorance on the oyster question." It would be interesting to know what the connection may be between thia Minne apolis oyster and Oregon. Are the children of Richmond taught that Minneapolis is lo cated in a Pacific coast state, or do their geographies show Oregon bordering on tlie Mississippi river? We hear some strange stories about the teaching of history In the south, but this is the first suggestion that the maps of the United States In the text books used In that part of the country are not all they should be. There Is some doubt whether the demo cratic party can even get up a Bryan cele bration unless Mr. Bryan superintends it himself. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit fight has given Paterson, N. J., some hope of losing its reputation as the tough town of the neighborhood. ?A colored man, aged 1(M, was arrested in Providence, R. I., for flourishing a revolver. There is no denying that he Is old enough to know better. Saratoga gamblers can depend on even tually getting most of the money that was saved during a brief shut-down. SHOOTING STABS. A Compensating Thought. "There seems to be a great deal of un certainty about the outcome of this trust business," said the Investigator. "Yes," answered Mr. Dustln Stax, "the outcome is a little uncertain, but the In come's pretty safe." A Distinction. "Why do you insist on annoying the neigh bors Instead of playing in your own yard?" asked the irritable man. "Because," nnswered the precocious youngster, "when mother tells on us, father's likely to punish us, but when the neighbors tell on us he Just says 'boys will be boys.' " Fence-Mending. The statesman when he's out of town Doth tear?the sad truth must be known? Some other fellow's fences down In quest of rails to mend his own. Ignored. "Did your latest story attract any no tice?" "None whatever," answered the Russian novelist. "The public didn't pay any more attention to It than If It had been a ukase from the royal palace." Knowledge Withheld. "Why don't you make a speech that will tell your constituents exactly what you think about this question." "Because," answered Senator Sorghum, "I don't know exactly what I think, and If I did know I don't know that I would want my constituents to know It." The Fool. Within a sj-lvan pool there springs A stagnate world of swarming things. Misshapen, strange they throng and press. Complete In their unlovelinese. | With light-poised wings In quivering sway Above It nests a creature gay. It gazes down, but only sees The mirrored sky; the tremulous trees; The bird that sings In Joy complete; The blossom delicately sweet. Our world, like this small pool, we know Is filled with shapes of grievous show. \ And yet It need not seem unkind Since to the caim and passive mind It doth reflect, in guise full clear, A higher, purer atmosphere. Bullets for Lynchers. From the Oh a riot I e (X. C.) Ubaerrer. Lynch law is on the increase In North Carolina. There is no negro vote, no negro legislation now; but there Is a growing dis respect. not to say contempt, on the part of the white people for the laws which they themselves make. The mob hoots and Jeers senators. Judges and other officers, whom it helped to elect, when they get up before it to expostulate with it. and prav of it to ob serve the laws which It helped to frame. There must be an end to this or worse days will come. Tufts of grass have been thrown at lynchers to no effect and volleys have been fired over their heads without result. When a North Carolina mob is fired Into by deputies or the military, and a dozen or fifteen of the lawbreakers ar killed, there will be an instant end to mob law in the state. The longer the appreciation of the remedy is delayed the faster the disease will spread. It should be applied to? the next mob that thunders at the gates of a Jail. ? Xnownothingism Up to Date. Prom tte Springfield Republican. Our old knownothing goblin has gone south, and is at present roosting in Missis sippi. An issue in the campaign for the next governorship is whether foreign immigra tion should be welcomed into the state, and only one of the six candidates has ventured to say that white immigrants would be an advantage all around. The other five fol low Gov. Vardaman's leadership, which is based upon the grand and Inspiring Idea of "Mississippi for the Mtssissippians." This means, of course. "Mississippi for the white Mississlippians." who are rather of a select company. The folly of such a narrow pol icy Is too clear for argument. There Is a large section of the state, known as the hill country or red lands, situated baclc from the river vallev. that could sustain a greatly increased pooulatlon of white farmers. The Vardaman Idea seems to be to keep the white population small and the negroes In a state of ignorance and subjection. , Japanese Thrift. From the New Orleans Picayune. The shooting of five Japanese seal poach ers In the Behrlng sea is being made the text for a lot of senseless talk about pos sible misunderstanding with the Japanese government over the incident, some people being even so rash as to predict that war may grow out of It. Whatever else the Japanese may be. they are a careful and conservative nation and less likely to en deavor to fasten a quarrel on another power where they themselves are clearly In the wrong than most other civilized nations. Whatever the Japanese government may think of the matter it is entirely too wise to make trouble where the outward appear ances are so much against It. Sorry She is Improving.
