AT the meeting yesterday Of the
African Methodist Episcopal Ministerial
Association in Philadelphia, ex-Mini ster
to Hsyti Bassett said that President
Cleveland has appointed a white man to
represent the United States in the
black Republic, and colored man as
Consul to Calais, Fiance. "The only
diplomatic appointment. said he, "has
been taken away from US. don't want
to censure the administration, but it
looks like a well settled plan to elbow the
colored man out OF the foreign service "
We doubt If two swallows, even black
swallows constitute summer. We
doubt If President Cleveland has any
well-settled policy, except that Of ap-
pointing the best material he can obtain
for offices at home and abroad We are
sure that the colored men, infrequently
II ever, come within the requisite Of the
best material. We are sure also
that President Cleveland does not and
will not recognize any claim for special
privileges or special favors thst the col
ored voters or the colored promoters may
make upon him. We are doubtful. too,
since Mr.. Bassett mentions the matter,
whether a white man would not be q
more fitting representative abroad than
the black man. We have a sneaking
notion that this is a sort OF a white
mans country after all. We would not
do any injustice to the colored man, but
we think modesty would become him in
his demands upon the Democratic party
at least.

ALBERT s. WILLIS, the new minister

Secretary Gresham yesterday, and left

TO make his preparations for going to
Honolulu Mr.. Willis served several
terms in Congress with ability He would
have been returned had he not mixed
religion In an offensive way with local
politics. This was not so much his fault
as his misfortune. 1t came about through
Mrs. Thompson, shrewd politician, the
daughter Of Alexander Campbell, the
founder Of powerful church. She was
unpopular and by urging her nomination
for the third term, because they were
members of the same church,
Mr.. Willis lost his own place
The policy toward Hawaii will not

that could be claimed for the nation.
When tn at treaty Is renewed If the
various personal and speculative interest
Of private American citizens can be con-
sidered they will be considered; not
otherwise The scare about English or
Russian supremacy is either foolish fear
or dishonest plea. When any power
thre atens this great nation in any of our
rights. by treaty or by possession, there
will be time enough to protest and then to
repulse such interference. Meantime we
propose to do precisely the right thing our
selves. We do not propose to seize any
territory, anywhere, no matter how
much better we imagine we could run
the country, nor how advantageous such
a seizure might prove to private citizens
of either country. It is no matter, fur.
thermore, how cheap or how easy the
proposed seizure may be. 1t must be
understood that this is not an admins
tration Of temporary expedients, that
the President is not a candidate for re.
