A DANGEROUS PRACTICE.

The danger of entrusting the care
of babies to children was illustrated
last Friday afternoon, when a little
girl about ten years old was pushing
an infant in a carriage across Market
street at Third. She was not looking
where she was going, and pushed the
carriage off the iron bridge over the
gutter, pitching the baby out head
first. 1t struck its face on the cobble
stones, and when picked up its nose
was bleeding, and its face brused in
several spots. This is practice too
much INDUCED in, and the wonder is
that there are not more accidents
than there are.

THE GOLD CURE OF BLOOMSBURY.

E. J. Bowman, of Berwick, is now
among the patients who are under
going treatment at the Bedal Gold
Cure of the opium and liquor habit in
Bloomsburg. There is no doubt that
the gentlemen connected with this in
stitution are doing noble work in
this respect. No matter how salts
factory or unsatisfactory their mission
in life may have seemed to them in
other respects thus far, surely the
blessings of the reclaimed will be
theirs if nothing else. "Write me as
one who loves his fellowman," said
the most worthy Ben Adem. He won.

Fire Alarm.

On Thursday night our people were
somewhat excited over what was
thought to be an alarm of fire, but
which proved to be but continuous
blowing of some whistle, either out of
order on a moving train, or else a
whistle deliberately blown down about
the new bridge. The deliberate act
of making a false alarm is one deserv-
ing punishment where the culprits are
known.

S4CKVILLE And WILLIS.

President Cleveland toward the close Of his
first term dismissed the British Minister from
Washington. Lord Sackville had not been plot
ting against the Government Of the United
States He had not delivered from the British
Foreign Office an impcrious demand that the
President and his Cabinet should retire from
office He had not been In secret consultation
with the enemies Of the Administration for tho
purpose of Overthrowing 1t and restoring the
Republicans TO power. His relations with the
President and Secretary Bayard had been most
friendly, and as Il responsible representative OF
British interests ne ardently desired Mr.. Cleve-
lands reelection. His sole offence was his in
discretion In hurting out the truth In the
MurchiSOn correspondence. He had expressed
his belief that the Administration was anxious
to settle all questions with Canada that Presi-
dent Cleveland, If reelected, would manifest
spirit Of Cancellation in dealing with Great Brit
ain and that naturaliZcd Englishmcn ought to
vote for him. For this cause President Cleve-
land, after waiting ten days and receiving warn
ing from his political managers that the Irish
vote was slipping away from him, sent pass
ports to Lord Sackve.
If President Cleveland was justified in getting
rid Of an awkward and Ovcrzcalous friend is
not President Dole under obligations to send
out Of the Hawaiian Islands dsingenuOus
and audacious enemy? Lord Sackville was a
laundering letter writer. who could not conceal
his admiration and friendship for President
Cleveland. Minister Willis has been intriguing
with Royalsts, deliberately discussing with
barbarous sovereign the expediency Of locking
up her chOpping machine" and demanding In
the name Of the President Of the United States
the abdication Of the Government TO which
he IS accredited. The first anniversary OF Ha-
waan independence IL celebrated, and Minister
Willis declines President Doles invitation and
instrncts Admiral Irwin not to dress the Ameri-
can ships with flags. but to withhold all recog
milton Of the day For this hostile stand taken
against the Government to which he Is ac-
credited he Is overwhelmed with cOngratula.

open and dangerous enemy such as Minister
Willis has shown himself.
If President Dole dismisscs Minister Willis
he will do what many American Presidents
have done when the honor Of their Administra
tions has been challenged by the representatives
of foreign Powers. President Washington de-
mandcd the recall Of Genet. the French Minis
ter. for participating in American political az
fairs and criticisinc the conduct Of the Admin
istrntion and Congress. The Spanish Minis
fer Yruio was dismissed in 1906 for influ-
cncing an American newspaper against the
Administration. In 1910 the British Minister
Jackson received his passports for wantonly
DISTRIBUTING the Secretary Of state anu III" Al
mnistration. President Taylor sent back to
Europe Poussin. the French Minister. for refer
ring contemptuousy TO the American Navy and
Government. CatacaZy's offences were per-
sonal. and he was forced to retire from Wash
ington because he had rendered hlmsclf odious
to the Grant Administration.
American diplomatic law on this subject was
condensed by Secretary Buchanan into two
sentences: 1.-THE plain duty Of the diplomatic
agents of the United States Is scrupulously TO
abstain from Interfering in the domestic politics
of the countries where they reside. BY taking
any omen mart I'm the domestic affairs Of such Il
foreign country they must sooner or later rem
der themselves obnoxious TO the Executive at-
thority. which cannot fail 10 impair their In
nnencc" Minister Willis has been impelled by
his instructions from Washington to Interfere
I'm the domestic politics of Hawaii and to
identify himself with the Royalists. He has
rendered himself personally obnoxious to l'resi-
dent Dole. His presence in Honolulu increases
UNNECESSARILY the difficulty and danger of GOV
erning the islands. American prcccdcnts and
pr1cticp require his dismissal.
