It becomes good Americans to do their best toward strengthening the hands of Secretary Greshum In the Allianca anS Venezuelan affairs. But thlsman's fatal facility for doing the wrong thing by habit and the right one only by ucci dent mokes It a difficult job. What of the flonroe Doctrine? The difficulties besetting tills govern ment because of Its part In attempting to arbitrate th territorial differences between Venezuela and Nicaragua, just now the subject of cabinet discussion at Washington, with Kngland, Ger many, France and Belgium disposed to take a hand In the game, lend peculiar Interest to a bold suggestion recently made by Francis Wayland Glen in a letter to the New York Sun. It is noth ing less than that the destiny of the Vnlted States is toward a United North America. The first to come Into this federation will, he thinks, be Canada. The cheap ness of such a government as con trasted with the excessive cost of the present government of the dominion. Is an Important consideration urging to thlsend. Otherpolnts of evidence or per Huasion are enumerated as follows: The abolition of the state church, the secret ballot, one day's polling, the holding of elections on the same day in all ridings, representation according to population, the creation of town ship, town, city, and county councils, the reduction of the financial qualifica tion for the exercise of the franchise to a nominal amount, universal educa tion at the cost of and under the direc tion and control of the state, the adop tion of the federal principle in creating the dominion, a decimal currency, the net ton as) the legal ton, and last, but rot least, the adoption by the courts of Canada of legal decisions given or con firmed by the higher courts of this re public in preference to thos of the courts of Great Britain, unless they were binding upon the courts of Can ada from the nature of the issues In volved. With Canada's entrance into the union will naturally, of course, come the whole of British North Amer ica. The absorption of Mexico is not foretold by Mr. Glen, but It would prob ably come, in due time. Meanwhile, turning from this delight ful fancy picture to the Immediate realities, what is to be done to enforce the Monroe doctrine? Shall any European power be permitted to extend Its sphere of influence on this hemi sphere? Do we, as a nation, possess the spunk to stand boldly up to the mark laid down by James Monroe? If we accept Mr. Glen's picture as possi ble of eventual realization, It seems to til that a sturdy Insistence upon the scrupulous enforcement of the Monroe doctrine Is essential to the welfare of this republic and to its future devel opment unhampered by meddlesome outside Interference. The stiffening of the backbone of our diplomacy in this dlrectlonls a consummation devoutly to fee wished. It Is noticeable fact that It la the fellow who has no yellow vest that Is generally most anxious to reform poll tic. The Case of Noyes vs. Dana. At the time of the bringing, by Mr. !F. B. Noyes, of an action In libel against Mr. Charles A. Dana, The Tribune de plored the tone of the article, in Mr, Dana's paper, at which Mr. Noyes took offense. It does so yet. The conditions of honorable business competition do rot include any necessity for the per sonal traducing of honest competitors; and until proved otherwise, Mr. Noyes must be regarded an honest man, Unfortunately for Mr, Noyes, he hns permitted himself to be misguided into making an effort to haul Mr. Dana, for trial, not before a "Jury of the vicin age," which is his natural right, but before a remote court situated many miles from New York, In the district of Columbia. This effort Is based upon the deposition that 300 copies of the Sun, containing the alleged libel, were circulated in that district. Upon this principle, Mr, Dana could be taken for trial to Pennsylvania, Connecticut, New Jersey, In fact, to any or all of the states and territories of the United States; to Canada, Mexico, the South American states, and to nine-tenths of the civilized countries of Kurope, Asia, Africa and Australasia, In all of which the Sun is circulated. Independent of the merit of the original issue, this principle of attempted kidnaping under cover of the law stands forth as utterly Intolerable. To concede It would be to sacrifice not simply the freedom of the press, but, Indeed, the very existence of the press along lines of public spirit and public usefulness. We guess thnt Mr. Dana would now have been sorry for the remark origin ally made concerning Mr. Noyes for may it not, after all, have been merely an ebullition of temper? hud it not been for tho circuitous method em ployed by the latter to obtain redress. As It Is, Mr. Noyes lias roused the lion, not only In the Sun otnVe. but In news paper sanctums everywhere. Ills per sonal hurt is trivial by comparison with the injury which he would inflict upon the business of journalism; and If he ac cordingly sustains a loss of sympathy, It will be owing to his own lack of fore sight unci judgment. . No "decree" of party leaders can make It right for uny sect or denomina tion to turn the public schools Into a re cruiting station. And If the people get down to hard pan on this subject, the right can bo depended upon to win. Baby Play Gone Mail. The gravamen of tho offense with which Loiin A. Thurston, minister from Hawaii to tho United States, Is charged by the American secretary of state, and tht basis for the hitter's re cently preferred request for Minister Thurston's recall. Is that he communi cated certain olllelal Information to the newspapers in advance of Its formal presentation ut the ptate department. For this breach of diplomatic etiquette Mr. Thurston verbally upologized, but when asked to make a humiliating apology In writing, to be tiled among the archives, he promptly replied that he would see Mr. Gresham In Halifax Hist a bold sentiment which Mr. Gresham Is said to have strongly disap proved. This Is the formal charge against Thurston, obviously a mere pretext, which shames the olllelal who masks behind It. Hut the real reason why Minister Thurston is persona lion grata at the state department Is thus outlined in the Washington Post, a Journal friendly to the administration: While Secretary Gresham has thus sii'l denly ruptured our relations with Hawaii on the ground that Minister Thurston gave out some news prematurely, there is no doubt that the Incident Is the culmina tion of the lack of cordiality entertained by the administration toward the minis ter. Mr. Thurston first fell under tho ban by presuming to reply to the bitter at tacks mada by Special Commissioner Blount upon the Hawaiian government, and he hns been ns;,rravatinr this dislike by his intimate relations with those who did not sympathize with the odmlnl.ttrn tion's Hawaiian policy. He was a con stant visitor at the catKo1 during the de bates in the senate upon Hawaiian affair.", and it was suspected that mu:'h of the in formation used against the administra tion In debate came from him. He hns also been very American-like in his talks with newspaper correspondents, tparing no words In defending his country, and unhesitatingly discussing Hawaiian af fairs In order to give the people of the United States a clear understanding of the various situations which have arisen. In other words, our enlightened diplo macy, impotently failing to seat a blood-thirsty barbarian wanton on the throne of Hawaii, over the ruins of a republican government; beaten at every point In Its Incomprehenlblo conspiracy of Infamy touching the government presided over by President Dole, and smarting under a home castlgatlon vir tually unanimous among tho people, now seeks an escapement for Its rage by pouncing upon the Hawaiian min ister, who Is snubbed and badgered, and put out of office for the tremendous offense of glvini; news to the news papers! Great work, this, for Amerclan statesmanship! Editor Bell's attention Is respectfully called to the fact that a bill requiring legal notices to be published In German papers lias passed one branch of the legislature. Was It, or Was It Not? The question once raised as to tho Identity of the whilom assailant of the esteemed William Patterson promises to be entlerly overshadowed by the question: "Was It cow's butter or wius It oleomargarine that Editor A. J. Palm won prizes with, at the Meadvllle State dalryment's pure butter show?" The latter discussion arose during the MrHt half of lust February and Is still In progress In animated progress. The five weeks of its history to date are weeks bupntlng out with contradictory claims, urged upon either nldo with a zl that hiis flinched from no exertion. What the end will be no man can' con jecture, not even the controversialists themselves. The latest contribution to the biblio graphy of this much-mooted theme reaches us In the form of a splrltuelle eight-page folder, of vest pocket size, bearing upon Its anterior side tho posi tive assertion, in bold, black type: "It Was Butter." Five of these eight pages relute the thrilling nurratlve which serves as a kind of prelude to tho chief, the absorbing climax. Then, on the sixth page, In extraordinary loud char acters, uppear these words: "It is evi dent from the foregoing facts that the manufacturers of butterlne from whom Uie packages were obtained by Mr. Palm for exhibition, funlshcd butter In stead of- butterlne as charged;" to which important conclusion are affixed tho names of John C. iMcCllntock, A. L. Wales and II. J. Waters, not to speak of their respective affidavits. We now await the refuting arguments of Brother Palm. To be sure, he has already made them public Informally, in the shape of affidavits from the Chi cago manufacturers to whom he wrote for samples, setting forth that the goods forwarded to him were bona-flde packages of real butterlne, as claimed, and not the vulgar (substance which is derived from the mllch-cow's fistful udder. But we feel that in a matter of so much importance, our esteemed Meadvllle confrere should not entrust the gravamen of his case to the fugitive columns of the dully press, lie should on the contrary have it embalmed for ull time In the annuls of tho human race; he should print It In durable Ink on superfine parchment und distribute it, copy by copy, as a souvenir of a most memorable battle of science. We await, with Impatience, the next round in tills duel of the allldavlt-liiuk-ers. Scrantoii's dust nuisance Is only a year older tills March than last; but judging by Its size, one would think u decade had Intervened. Tho talking diplomatist apparently must go. The new woman will there fore never make a success of diplomacy. We do not wish to be unkind, but tin disappearance of the late Mr. Pattisoii Is something cyclonic. It is unfortunate that Secretary Greslium could not stand prosperity longer than one day. At times like these, a new navy be comes really a handy thing to have. li:gisi..vtivi: topics. HaiTisbuig, March 21. A Washington special says: The boom Inaugurated here favoring the nomination of Governor Hastings, of Pennsylvania, for president next year, seems to be spreading. Not only are the politicians discussing his chances, but all the dally papers are de voting some space to this, the new dark horse. An evening paper virtually pre dicts his iiomlnutloii III a manner slinllir to that of Governor Hayes, of Ohio, at the Cincinnati convention in IsTti. It nays: "Senator (Juay is lu earnest about pushing Hastings to the front. Ho believes that the. convention of lsW will be a repetition of that of ls7li. In that memorable contest there were seven candidates. There were James G. lilalne, of Maine; Itoscoo Conk llnir, of New York; Oliver P. .Morton, of Indiana: Joseph It. Hawley, of Connec ticut; Henjamin 11. Burton, uf Kentucky: John F. Hnrtranft, of Pennsylvania, and lluthcrford B. liuyes, of Ohio. It was the field against lllaino. Seven ballots were taken urn! the weakest man In the bunch, Hayej, landed a winner. In the conven tion next year there will ogaln most likely be seven candidates, perhaps eight. These will be Heed, of Maine; .Morton, of New York; Harrison, of Indiana; McKlnley, of Ohio; Allison, of Iowa; Burrows, of Michi gan; Lincoln, of Illinois, and Hastings, of Pennsylvania. Iteed will be the leading candidate, as was lilalne twenty years ago. Senator Quay is firmly of tho opin ion that Governor Hastings will occupy tho sumo relative position that Governor Hayes held in 1S7H, that of the candidate upon whom the Held could unite upon to defeat the favorite." Social Club Sideboards. A bill has been reported to tho senate from committee which proposes to regu late the salo of liquors in social clubs by requiring the taking out of a license throiifrh the courts. It provides that chilis having M) members or any fraction there of are to pay a license fee of 1100, and for every additional mj members or fraction thereof an additional fee of ."i0, provided that no club shall bo required to pay more than JI.OK). No club shall be allowed to .sell liquors to other persons than its members, nor to minors, mid a club not licensed which shall sell or dispense liquors toftny person shall be subject to a tine of i'M for each offense. To Protect (irocers. Mr. Nlckell, of Philadelphia, has intro duced in ihe house a bill to protect grocers from that class of persons who contra - t debts for food supplies and then refuse to pay. iJebts for food are expected under this bill from the J:!nj exemption clause in actions for debt. I he Hight Doctrine. From the Philadelphia Press. We do not hesitate to say that wn should bu gratified to support the administration In all matters touching foreign affairs. All partisan feeling ought to end at our own Bhnres. Wh have sufficient ground for partisan contention In our domestic (lifferenetis. We ought to be uble to pre sent a single and united front upon all questions which concern our relations with other lands. A vigorous, patriotic American administration would penult this. When such a true American as Will iam I.. Murry, Iiemoenit though he wns In politics, was secretary of stato his po litical opponents were constrained to sus tain his foreign policy. When James G. I'.lnlno was secretary hosts of his political opponents upheld und applauded his uni form assertion of Amerlcun principles and aspirations. We ought to stand to gether when we face tho outside world, and we will do so if those who administer our foreign iifTalrs will give us half a chance. We rejoice that the present ud rnliii.it in t Ion, ufler compelling much cilll clsin, has given us one opportunity of pre-sentlng-a solid American front, Tho Wotst lllll of the Ycur. From the Philadelphia Times. The Snyder bill now before the senate providing for the Inspection of meats of fered for sale Is a good bill to defeat In Its present form. The provisions or the bill confer on the president of the stato board of health the power to appoint In spectors In every city, borough and town ship, whose duties live lo act us supervis ors over slaughtered or shipped meats Into their districts. The receiver of the consignment must notify tho Inspector and cannot sell a pound until ho pnsi'.ns upon It, und for every rortlllcute he re ceives itwo dollars for wh whele car cass of beef und one dollar for sheep, veal and swine. Stale farmers nre exempted from this tax. The Snyder Mil Is a part of the demands of lb Stute Grange voiced Into law and Is notnlug more t tin n protection to farmers rim 'wild. The thing is ridiculous. A t.i: or Unit char acter Is always paid by the 'ouiiimcr ami us the farmers cannot meet the demand of the market and us many of them are purchasers, they simply become taxpayers under a law for their sneelul benellt. What Alight Have llccn. From the New York Sun. It is Interesting to remember thnt tho lion, William C. Whitney might have been secretary of sluto at tho present time, had he consented to occupy thnt post. Ills reasons for refusing to take uny olllee under Air. Cleveland were un doubtedly sound, and creditable to him self. Nevertheless, thousands of Ameri cans who have read with prldn and satis faction Mr. Whitney's patriotic message to tho editor of the New York Times, can not help looking back now, with imtneas urcnhle r'Kiet, to the unfortunate com bination of events which put Walter Q. Gresham where William C. Whitney might have been. Hops It of Significance. From the Washington Star. If our government Is to permit personal prejudice to cause It to embarrass tho young and troubled republic, nud no for bearance or sympathetic consideration Is to be Bhown In dealing with It and Its representative, there Is of course no rea son to expect Hawaii to pursue a more magnanimous course, it would bo rea sonable for Mr. Willis to expect the hand ing to him of his own passport, for the Amerlcun minister In currying out the policy of Mr. Cleveland and his secretary of stato when they endeavored to restore Mrs. Dominlg 'to the throne, and when they Interfered with the recent treason trials, has Inevitably mado himself ob noxious to the Hawaiian authorities. It is well understood, of course, thut In any controversy over Hawaiian affairs the ad ministration does not represent tho na tion, ntid this fuet rolis anything thut it may do In respect to Hawaii ut much of Its significance. The Dismissal of Thurston. From the New York Sun. Tho Hawaiian government will undoubt edly be ronstrulncd, In conformity with diplomatic usage, to comply with Mr. Gresham's request, although, seeing that reasons have bueii stated, it will ho at liberty to answer llieiu. But. Mr. Thurs ton, on his part, may accept Ills dismissal w ith equanimity. Hu has seen Mr. Clcvo land meet with derisory dlscumllturc In his attempt to overthrow the Hawaiian government, and sharply disciplined by the senatu us to his prospective course, lie bus ween the I'lfty-tlilrd congress re buff Air. Cleveland's request thut a Brit ish wubularlne cable might bo suffered to land on one of the Hawaiian Islands, and he will see the Fifty-fourth congress or der the const ruction of nil American sub murine culde from San Francisco to Hono lulu. And, although Mr. Thurston mny now leave us lor a. while, he can count on being welcomed back to Washington in the day, happily not dlslunt, when, Mr. Cleveland and bis cabinet olllcers shall have been relegated to obscurity. Our Sentiments Precisely. From the Post-Kxpress. Both Cuba and the Hawaiian Islands ought. to become part of tho Called Stales of Americu. TOLD 15Y Till: STARS.
