Inc queen was unwilling to risk going
peck on the throne unless this government
would promise her its moral support This
the administration has never contem-
plated. ed.-lnspired N. Y. Herald Cor.
So the ex-queen was not satisfied with
the moral whitewashing 50 copIously and
unfortunately administered by Commits
sioner Blount. His moral support evidently
does not suffice. Why should the ex-aueen
insist upon this particular kind of support!
Does she not recognize that any support OF
her under the circumstances must neces-
sarfly be immoral? 1t is feared that the
sx-Queen Is prssuming upon the Presidents
indulgence to capriciously demand impos-
abilities. as child may cry for the moon
II can hardly be possible that anything has
been said to the lady by the administration
which now entities her to complain of being
Tilted. and to bemoan the faithlessness of a
great and good friend" crying, 20 heaven!

If the Information which came yesterday
from Honolulu Is correct-and there Is no
reason for questioning its accuracy-Minis-
ter Willis is awaiting with more or less
patience or impatience the arrival of in
structions which will cover the situation as
he found It, Misled by the Blount report
the administration's latest envoy doubtless
imagined that he would necessarily control
the Islands from the moment Of his landing,
out the advices brought hither by the
barque Klickitat and the schooner Transit
show that the provisional government has
real backbone and will not so far as it is
able. permit interference even by the repre-
sentative Of the United States. To this con-
dition of affairs Minister Willis sensibly
has no amendment to offer. He has noti-
fled President Cleveland that he will take
no action until he is further instructed from
" washington and in reply President Cleve-
land has. it is thought, notified the minister
to wait until he is further notified before
any action is taken. The situation-almost
tragic but little while ago-is rapidly be-

II appearances are safe things upon which
TO base an opinion 1t may be announced
that Washington has been selected as the
national headquarters of those far from
dubious human elements whose activity Is
vicious and who war continually on all
that is good. After prolonged warfare. in
which decency and vice were the combat
ants, pool rooms were driven from out the
city. to the disgust only of their proprie-
tors and the professional habitues. That
cleansing operation did much good. 1t
saved no one knows how many men-es-
pecially young men-from the crime which
is an almost certain consequence of fidelity
to any form cf gambling, but which comes
more frequently to those who imagine they
can beat professional bookmakers at their
own game. A conservative estimate of
the thievery caused by a desire to acquire
wealth by cnarce and without exertion
would astound the average citizen, while
a roster Of those who have sounded the
depths Of iniquity while essaylng to re-
trieve losses would bring renewed sorrow
to hundreds Of homes in the District of
Columbia. The ejectment of the pool rooms
necessarily brought about a reduction of
the misbehavior they caused, for while it
was possible for some of the customers to
leave their occupations long enough to
journey to Jackson City-Virginias dis
grace-the greater proportion of the deluded
were compelled to forego the fascinating
and deadly pleasure. Naturally there was
marked reduction in the profits Of pool
room sharks and there was gradual i'm
provement in the city's moral tone, but now
a serious effort Is being made to perma-
nently locate in our midst the parent I'M
morality. Every respectable citizen. every
w n "
future are threatened, should protest most
forcibly and continue to protest until the
all-the-year-round racing planned by those
whom NewJersey 50 Justly exiled is knocked
out here also. All the forces Of law and
order ought at once to combine. The Dis
trict Commissioners can deal the invaders
heavy blow by refusing liquor license
end they would be justified by public SEN
timent should they compel Engemann and
his clique to go into court when the Brigh-
ton Beach and Clifton philanthropist seeks
a renewal of his monthly racing license
Constant activity on the part of the police
will also discourage the vicious multitude
which Is so conspicuous a part of these
winter racing outfits; tough characters and
would-be toughs should be arrested at every
opportunity. No officer who patronizes the
bookmakers should be permitted to do duty
at the track; 1t would, in fact be we'll to
dispense entirely with the services of all
officers who associate with such people for
purposes Of prospective personal profit
The courts will attend promptly and effect
lively to all the rascals who are brought
before them and it may easily be that within
a gratifyingly brief period the District of
Columbia will be forever rid of those who
would tarnish its reputation by their per-
nicious presence

and the smooth roadway began to closely
resemble a toboggan-slide, The Times con-
cluded 1t would be much better to turn back
before the precipice and the yawning gulf
were reached. From comparatively safe
position and very near the once-despised
and narrow footway,- The Times still clings
to the idea that the great wrong'-over
which 1t and President Cleveland and Sec
retary Gresham and Paramount-Extraord-
mary Blount have exercised their tear-ducts
in the most distressing Of lachrymose fash
ions-should speedily be undone. but 1t Is
quite certain that the President cannot un-
do it without committing an objectionable
offense. THE provisional government" says
The Times. ''is now the only government de
facto OF Hawaii and as such it has been
recognized by the United States and by
other powers. 1t is the government to which
our minister Is accredited, and the only one
to which he could be accredited. Suppose
that now, having possession of such organ
lied power as there Is at Honolulu and of
Its agents and instrumentalities, 1t does not
choose to give way and allow the monarchy
to be peacefully restored, and suppose that
Congress will not authorize the use of force
to accomplish that result, then what?" The
answer Is ready-Decent government will
be permanently established in the Islands.
There need be no fear that the withdrawal
of this government from the imbroglio will
cause Americans resident in Hawaii any
trouble or work injury to American busi-
ness interests. The Times Is fearful, yet 1t
declares that ''in some way the citizens of
Hawaii should be able and should be per-
mtted to decide for themselves what their
government is to be-" They have decided.
ard 1t is to prevent President Cleveland
from interfering to defeat their decision
that such a volume Of protest is going up
all over the land The people Of Hawaii
through those who represented the life. the
business energy, the wealth, the religion,
the education, the morality of the Islands
have declared most emphatically against
a mimic and rotten monarchy and will never
again prostrate themselves before throne
on which the power Of evil has reigned for
so many years.
