Without dealing extensively with Secretary
BayarGs despairing comments ON his own diplo-
matte failure we direct attention to the re-
mafkable parallel which he draws between the
Haytian and Samoan affairs. He asserts that
the Germans are confronted with pretty much
the same situation" In the South Seas in which
the United States was involved in the West
Indies. We apprehend that no other Ameri-
can would have discovered any points Of CORE
spondence between the two cases. He takes
the original view that the Samoans like the
lHsytians broke their treaty engagements, and
that the Germans claim the, right to punish
them. Apparently he justifies German ag-
gression by the American precedent afforded
by Admiral Luce's intervention in Hayt. We
utterly fail to perceive the relevancy OF the
comparison. There was OWL war in Hayti, but
tho United States was not responsible for IL.
II had not interviewed in the domestic affairs
of the island by insigating rebellion, lending
aid to one faction, deposing one President and
setting up another. 1t merely sent two YES
sels-of-war to demand the release Of an Ameri-
can steamer which had been illegally seized.
When the vessel was surrendered champagne
was put on tap, and friendly relations were
restored without the slightest attempt to partici
pate in the domestic discussions Of the island.
At Samoa blood, not champagne has been flow
ing for two years ant for that condition Of
internecine strife Germany has been responsible
by its unwarantable intervention in domestic
affairs and its violation Of its engagements, not
only with MaIietoa, but also with England and
the United States. There was no German
property that had been illegally seized in Sa-
moa. There was throne that was overturned.
There was an autonomy recognized by three
Powers that was invaded. There were solemn
obligations that were renounced.
The hopeless tone Of the retiring Secretary
also seems to require brief comment. He has
exhausted the resources of diplomacy. The
State Department can do nothing more. The
only recourse now can be to EARNED inter
vention., The United States must either swal-
low It's rebuff and scuttle out of Samoa on
else be prepared to stand and fight for its
rights. Lest we may be thought unfair to the
Secretary, his words are quoted from the inter-
view in "The Baltimore Sum-" which was re-
published in yesterdays issue: "Now the
question is Shall the United States declare
themselves ready 30 fight if need be, in order
to secure independence TO the Samoans? Il IL
for Congress TO decide, since with Congress no.
sides the constitutional power of determining
the question Of peace or war" We do not be
lieye that matters have reached such straits
as these. 1t is in one respect fortunate, how

FIGHTING ROULAEGTSM.

BoulangeT's success promises to involve an
immediate abandonment Of Gambetta's cleo
toral system. When the Constitution was de-
bated in National Assembly during 1875 the
Republican Deputies under the leadership of
Theirs advocated elections by departments
rather than by ACCOMPLISHMENTS or districts.
They were in minority, and the scrutin de
Eiste was not adopted. The reactionary fac
tons which were then IN control of the legis-
lative body preferred the reimbursement plan,
because it made the Deputy a personal repre-
sentative Of his local constituency, and seemed
to multiply their chances of retaining mar
jority. 1t was impracticable for the antag-
oniStic groups then artifcially banded together
in opposition to Republican institutions TO ar
range department lists which would be ac-
ceptable to all members of the coalition. The
reimbursement system left the Royalists, Or
eanists and Bonapartists at liberty to nominate
their own candidates where they had the best
prospect OF success. 1t was not Republican.
but Reactionary device, and it did not accom-
plish the result anticipated. Under its opera
ton the Republican minority was rapidly con-
verted into a majority and the strength of the
opposing factions was greatly reduced Gam

overcoming local influences and enabling every
elector to vote for list of candidates he could
expel the Reactionary forces from the field alto

adopted, but in practice it has not fulfilled
Republican expectations. Ii has directly pDo-
noted the growth Of Bouangism, and for that
reason is now TO be abandoned.
The Republicans midudged the effect of de-
partment elections precisely as their opponents
had miscalcuated the tendencies of district cleo
lions They had expected to stamp out the
remnants Of the Reactionary factions. The
elections Of 1885, conducted under the scrutin
de liste, strengthened those factions and since

thing is certain: the changes recommended
ought to be considered on their merits, and tho
