SENATOR HILLS sTATEsMANsH1P.


Senator David Bennett Hill has latterly
been telling the people of the United
States in general, and his Democratic sup
porters of New York in particular, what
the policy of the Hill Democracy will be.
A prominent characteristic of the Hill
brand of craftsmanship is that it does not
do what was laid down by the signers of
the Declaration of Independence as a
necessity, namely, it does not hang to-
gether.
In his Elmira speech Senator Hill de-
veloped the grand plan of free coinage
which should be marked by distinct sepa-
ration from the Nevada policy of free
coinage 1t did not make any difference
to Hill that the actual coinage measure he
proposed was exactly the same as that
urged by the Silver Senators. He would
have none of the Nevada style of free
coinage; but would insist on free bi-metal-
lie coinage A little further lapse of time
has brought change DER the spirit of
Hills craftsmanship. He now goes to
Washington on the platform of doing
nothing except to repeal the Mckinley act
and the silver act of 1890. As this would
put the Democracy in the attitude of ad-
vocating return to the Republican legis-
lation which they have attacked so vigor-
ousiy for the past few years, the princi-
pal effect of Hills craftsmanship is to in
spire reflections on the large amount of
ignorance required TO make the reputation
of a sharp political manager.
1t is TO be hoped that Senator Hill vii

johnson Is Better Than the Gossoon.

It was the Athenians who everlastingly
cried for something new. To their wall
should be added that of our American citi-
zens, who have a feeling of sympathy for
Ireland in unison with love for the drama
An absolute duty dsvolves upon some play
wright to rise up and give this class
something fresh. There is no doubt but
the Duquesne Theater expected snch q
treat. But they were sadly disappointed.
1.-THE Gossoon' is neither fresh nor meritor-
ious. 1t is the same old Irish play of "The
is difference. "The Shaughran" and "Ker-
~ Cow are plays. 1.-THE Gossoon'' is bal
derdash. 1t has neither head nor tail, plot
or action. In one act the heroine is broken
down with despair over the loss of one love;
the next she is on the top rung of happiness
with another, whom she had hated three
short hours before. On another occasion a
suffering native is having all sorts of bless
ings in the shape of eatables drinkables and
kindness showered upon him by the neigh
bors. Within five minutes practically the
same crowd is tearing the roof off his cabin.
Add to all this the same grinning, sharp
witted young Irishman; a colleen who in
this case, has been in America long enough
to be termed an Irish American and catch the
patriot of the upper tier with appropriately
nlgh-strung illusions; a conventional En-
glish villain and his tool, the black side
whiskered, heavy-browed bog g-trotter, and
you have q complete resume of "The Cos

cabin with a view of Killarney. The third
act is supposed to be the same scene in win

the first view have faded away under some
fell cataclysm.
As to Mr.. Carroll johnson "The Cos
soon." He is worthier of something better.
Barring a tendency to undue tiourishing of
arms and catch-play, he evidences ability
not only as a comedian, but as clever melo-
dramatic actor, which will improve with
time and opportunity. He is a sweet singer
-one of the best that has been heard in
ing presence, and should win distinction
in the new f1eld-in time. The supporting
company is mediocre. Mart E. Kelsey is as

perhaps do all they can for the aimless
existence allotted them, while the balance

Twelve Temptations With Much Specialt,

The reconstruction of s'Twelve Tempta-
tions" has resulted in changing its former
spectacular character into one made hp
mostly of specialties. Though as a whole
this cannot be called an Improvement
vet the performers do their various
bits Of work with exceeding clever
ness, and were thoroughly appre-
ciated by the audience last night
The La MARITIME brothers OF acrobatic fame
were probably the favorite performers, as
they introduced not only some clever but
novel feats Of skill and strength. duo in
singing and pantomime, Lillian White and
Henry NJ. Broune, were also the recipients of
much applause, and were given encores
again and again in their topical songs.
It's pity that some women OF the stage do
not cultivate modesty that is higher in the
bodice and deeper in the skirt. The dan
seuses received the compliment in the bal
let yesterday evening, of several jeering
laughs from the gallery and afterward q
dead silence upon their exits, which COM
ment, it must be said, was well
deserved. There does not appear to
be any change in the scenery from
that of year ago, and since it looks a bit
travel-worn is probably the same. The
young gentleman who takes the leading
male character has mistaken his vocation.
He should be an amateur Shakespearean
actor. What is the matter with the usually
careful programmer of the Bijou? His work
was far from what it should be this week.

DIslNrEGRaTION OF MEXICO.

Among new legislative projects is
one for the annexation of part of Mexico,
which Senator Quay is urging. The
general feeling of the United States is that
we have about enough territory as the sit
uation stands There is certainly no hurry
to undertake new acquisitions. At the
same time, something is to be said for this
Mexican idea. 1t is true that there are
great many Americans and much Ameri-
can capital in the Mexican Provinces ad-
jacent to Texas, and it is also true that
Mexican government in those Provinces
is utterly insecure and inefficient. This is
now instanced by the exploits of the out
law, Cara.
The condition is indeed very similar to
that which existed in the 3O's, when the
Texans, with General Sam Houston at
their head, were obliged for safety of life
and property to cut loose from the old
Mexican Confederation and declare them
selves an Independent Republic. But even
after that had been done the Texans were
obliged to maintain their independent
nationality for seven or eight years before
the United States would consider the petit
tion of Texas to enter our union. Even
then the war with Mexico was brought on
by the ultimate acceptance of Texas as
one of the United States
The Provinces of Coahuila, Sonoro and
Chihuahua, which now want to follow the
example of Texas and join the United
States, have not won their independence
as Texas did, and any arrangement for
their acquisition would necessarily have to
meet the approval of the Mexican Govern
ment. But, upon the other hand, the
Mexican Government is so weak as to be
hardly able to do more than hold together.
1t might be glad to be relieved of terri
tory from which it experiences much
trouble. Assuredly, Diaz would not be so
hard to deal with as Santa Anna.
1t is possible something may come of
the resolution looking to the annexation
of these Provinces, which Senator Quay
has introduced in Congress- as there are
special arguments applying to them which
do not exist in relation to any annexation
project so far broached
