MORE RECIPROCITY.

Another point has been scored for the Reel
procity policy. The American Minister at
Caracas has informed the State Department that
the Congress of Venezuela has armed the Pres
ident with full authority to make a commercial
arrangement with the United States in accord
ance with the provisions Of the Reciprocity
amendment and to put it into operation without
delay. With this legislative sanction the Tx
ecutive Government will be certain to respond
favorably to the proposals of the State Depart
ment and to enter into negotiations on the basis
of the Brazilian agreement The United States
already has large and steadily increasing ex-
port trade with Venezuela, which has been de-
veoped in the face of heavy duties upon Amen-
can flour and other products. The removal OF
the duty on flour, amounting to 30 or 30 a
barrel, and corresponding reductions in other
schedules Of imports will involve the doubling
of the export trade These concessions can be
eouitably demanded, for Venezuela after Brazil
is the largest coffee depot on the continent from
which the American supply is derived. The i'm
ports received from La Guayra, Maracaibo and
Puerto Cabello are heavily in excess Of the ex-
ports shipped in return. commercial treaty
will tend to rectify these negotiable conditions
of exchange.
The State Department viii have everything
in its favor in pressing the negotiations with
Venezuela to a successful issue. There is a
strong prejudice there against England in con-
sequence Of the boundary dispute with Guiana,
and there is a most cordial feeling of friendship
for the United States. The American Minister
at Caracas has done excellent work in promot-
Ing a good understanding between the Govern
ments, and can be depended upon TO make a
satisfactory commercial agreement with the adj
vice of the enterprSing American firm which
now largely controls the export trade with that
coantly The State Department has opened the
way for this result by lending its support TO
VeneZueIa'S demand for arbitration of the boun-
Diary dispute and by disposing of several minor
controversies which had been pending for many
wears Venezuela is one of the most promising
fields for American mercantile energy No pains
should be spared by the State Department in
order to promote the most friendly feeling in
that quarter of South America. he Pan
American Railway project may not be a pIac-
ticable undertaking, but Puerto CabeO can be
converted into the northern terminus of trans
portation line into the interior which would be
a remnerative enterprise 1t should be one Of
the objective points of American commercial
policy to promote railway building on that coast
and to bring New-York and New-Orleans into
constant communication with that valuable

MIR. CLEVELAND AND 7AMMANY.

1t is not commonly known how warm and
tender a side ex-PreSident Cleveland has for
Tammany Hall. He has lately been expressing
himself in his customary fashion TO various clubs
and societies which have invited his presence
on interesting occasions of one sort or another
and we are confident that it will be a diSap-
pointment to some of the members Of the party
to which he is sometimes said to be superior if
he does not take advantage of the opportunity
which the Fourth of-Juy blowout at the Four
teenth Street Wigwam afford to give Tam
many a whole-souled send-Off of the approved
Cleveland variety. In fact, we take it that he
will only have to repeat some of the sentiments
he has expressed aforetime regarding that pc
culiar New-Yor institution to stir the Demo
cratic heart to its deepest depths.
In order to get at Mr.. Grover Clcveland's
opinions regarding Tammany we have only to
turn back to the files of the papers during the
years that no was in the White House and re-
peruSe the words he then uttered For in
stance, in 1888 he declared, in letter adj
dressed to " the Hon James a. Flack": The
zeal and enthusiasm with which your society
celebrates this day afford proof Of it's steadfaSt
patriotism, as well rs its care for all that per-
tains to the advantage and prosperity Of the
people, and he also referred to the renewal
Of a love and devotion to pure JeifersOnian
Democratic form of government" which Tam
many contemplated. In 1887 he spoke of
Tammany as =" society founded upon patriotic
principles and devoted to the creed most in
consonance with the perpetuatiOn and protection
of American Institutions" Then followed these
glowing words: "Thus with reconsecratiOn
Of political effort to the maintenance of the
Constitution in its integrity and with an en-
livened zeal in the defence and care of the
precious legacy of free government transmitted
by the fathers of the Republic, the day will be
well celebrated and tho Tammany Society will
maintain its patriotic traditions"
There is no need to multiply quotations. Mr..
Cleveands feelings toward Tammany have
been plainly enough set forth. The importance
of Tammany as a political factor no man knows
better than he. lie owes it TO himself to do the
fair thing by Tammany on the Fourth and sec
whether he cannot get nearly as big a cheer as
Governor Senator Hill.

Prince George is not only every inch man
every inch of his six feet two-but from all
accounts he may be truthfplly written down as
a Jolly good fellow. He has not been brought
up with the notion that the pre-
sumptive heir to throne is doomed
to a life Of enforced idleness He is at
the head of the Greek torpedo squadron, and
understands his business thoroughly Hence his
visit to the Navy Yard yesterday was an occa-
sion of deep interest to him, and the lntelli-
gence he displayed regarding naval affairs gave
great satisfaction to his hosts A glimpse OF
the Princes quality is gained in the circum-
stance that he gave up visit to West Point
arranged for to-day as soon as he found chance
for studying torpedoes at Willets Point in
stead TO say the least of him, such scion
of royalty does not illustrate the efeteneSs OF
European monarchies.

This is a characteristic inventory of annexa-

gent discennent Of the tendencies Of Ameli-

might iudicOuSly have been added-the Ba-

and are far more important than Bermuda. The
introduction of the sisa or hemp industry prom

As for Newfoundland, II may not be neces

resist the most importunate invitations from the

II il should ever be found knocking at our doors

tons Ii does not matter however whether
this has been one of the aspirations of the Dem
ocratc party in slave-Owning days. Slavery
has been abolished in Cuba rs well as in the
United States, and motives which once infiu-
enced Southern statesmen to advocate the ac-
ouisition of the island and Northern Abolition
lists and Free Soilers to oppose the policy have
ceased to have any force. 1t is no longer
ueStion for Democrats mindful of the tadi-
tons of another generation to decide; but one
for Americans without reference to political lines
10 examine and study The island is well worth
having. even if it may cost good many mill
ions but are Americans really convinced that
their interests will be promoted by its acquisi-
ton? That is question which leaves room for
radical differences of opinion.
The main objection to the future annexation
of Cuba, if il can be effected by purchase and
with the consent of the people, is the lack OF
assimilation between the Spanish and Anglo
Saxon races. The two races are essentially UNI
like in political genius Spanish America has
adopted, it is true, series of rough copies OF
the American Constitution, but in its political
practice it has applied the principles of fedora
ton. repubIicaniSm and democracy very differ
emily. Latin civilization has it's merits and de-
fects, but in the aggregate 1T is something eS-
sentially unlike the civilization of the English
speaking race. For our part, we are not cop-
WINGED that the two races will work harmoni-
ously and effectively under the same political
system Commercial union with Cuba and Span
ish America we heartily favor Political union
with any portion of the Spanish hemisphere is
another and very different thing.
