TO THE HOUSE DEMOCRATS.

In the new and very puzzling tariff situa-
ton which now confronts the House OF Rep
resentatives there appears to be only one wise
and patriotic course for the Democratic ma
iority to pursue, and that is to stand by any
action OF the House conferees.
They deserve the confidence Of the party
for their faithful performance OF duty in the
face of great obstacles, their honest adherence
to true tariff reform principles, and their
earnest efforts to secure that sort
OF compromise which would give
the country an opportunity Of testing
those principles. Therefore they deserve,
and it is to be trusted they will re-
ceive, the fullest measure of confidence and
support from their party.
1t may or it may not be necessary to yield
to the Senate bill in its present form. This
is a time for frankness all around, and, there
fore, there is no improperly in admitting
that the present unfortunate status OF the
bill may render full concession to the SEN
ate the safest course in the opinion of the
House conferees. 1t is not the parliamentary
status of the bill that is threatening as much
as it is the unfortunate clashes OF opinion
engendered by personal feeling and local
seltlshness, which may make it unwise to try
to pass any bill second time through the
Senate.
For these reasons the Democratic majority
should listen TO no outside resolutions,
framed, perhaps. by subtle enemies of tariff
reform, but give their undivided and loyal ad-
herence to the conferees who are already
their trusted and honored agents.

OUTRAGEOUS, IF TRUE.

1t will surprise the people OF the proud
State Of Virginia, no doubt, to learn that n
number of their soldiers. acting under the
warrant Of law aad the orders of the Gov.
ernor. have been guilty of conduct that will
bring the blush of shame to the cheek of
every American citizen. They have dishon-
ored the uniform they wear and disgraced The
good name of the State by acts OF wanton
cruelty against poor, misguided. half-starved
men whom they were sent to remove from
virginia's soil.
In the name of humanity and civilization
protest is here entered against such things as
were done by Virginia soldiers on Virginia
soil yesterday. They were not content to ex-
ecute their or ders, which were to remove the
''indu strials" from Rosslyn. They met with
no resistance from the poor fellows over there.
Nothing happened that could have aroused
their ire or resentment.
1t is true no violence was practiced upon
the men themselves, but with almost refined
cruelty their few personal effects, even includ.
ing clothing. were pierced and slasned with
bayonets and eventually burned up. An old
United States aag. which one of the men had
been carrying, was trampled under foot and
torn into shreds. The men were driven from
camp and not permitted to take anything
with them. Even what little Of provisions
there WAS In camp was made unfit for use
where it could not be entirely destroyed.
Worst of all, however, was the act of one of
these warriors, who ran his bayonet through
a cat, the pet Of some Of the industrials, and
then roasted the animal over one OF the fires
In extenuation Of these various atrocities
1t is urged that those who committed them
were under the influence of liquor. That
plea will hardly avail in this instance, for
they were soldiers, acting presumably under
the superintendent of their superior officers.
We trust Gov. O'Ferrall will promptly in
stitute an inquiry into this matter and hope
that it may result, if possible. in showing that
the accusations now brought against these
soldiers have been, if not entirely unfounded,
yet at least exaggerated.

THE CHINESE TREATY.

The esteemed Post urges the Senate to act
| favorably on tho Chinese treaty. "Its
adoption" it says, Twill pave the way for an
other and more specific treaty under which
We shall enjoy notable advantages over all
competitors for the opulent commerce of
Eastern ASIA"
1t is, of course, presumed that this Eve" is
not in any sense the editorial pronoun.
Otherwise it might be suspected that the Post
was in on the ground floor for a share CT this
''opulent commerce" in the shape of sub
stantial interest in those concessions that are
behind the specific" or commercial treaty,
which IS in turn behind the treaty now under
consideration. But the 1--WE" is evidently
general in application and seemingly refers TO
the benefits the whole country will enjoy un-
der the benelcent workings of Oriental friend
ship.
The general public, however, is inclined to
look askance-as it were through almond
eyes-at any extensive reciprocity with the
Chinese. They are sharp customers to deal
with, and on International questions this
sharpness rises to the rank of flrss-class di-
plomacy.
China wants this treaty She has spent
money right here in Washington to get it
through. She has employed titled lobbyist
to push her claims. and has even gone to the
extent of maintaining an agency for the dis
semination of properly worded newspaper
comment.
The treaty may be all right-there can
scarcely be harm in the establishment of
friendly relations with great government
such as is China-but there are too many con-
cession features behind the specific or COM
mercal treaty, in which personal. rather than
national advantages are to be gained.
A gentle warning is perhaps not out of the
way to the effect that Chinese diplomats have
sometimes conducted very successful legisla-
tive confidence games and have euchred the
very gentlemen who helped them with their
willy Mongolian schemes. Watch out gentle
men

THE LAST DISTRICT DAY. Z,

The House Of Representatives will have one
more opportunity on Monday to legislate for
the District of Columbia before the final ad-
journment of this session. The fact that the
past four "District days" in the House have
been nearly failures from the point of view of
actual legislation make it eminently proper,
therefore, that an appeal be made for a full
attendance OF the House on this last opportu-
nifty for securing action on several bills of
great importanceto to the people of Washington.
One of these is the new public library
bill, providing for the establishment first in
temporary quarters and later in the new post
office building of a circulating library, which
shall be available for those people in the Dis
trict who are unable to avail themselves of
the privileges of the Congressional and other
libraries. This measure is of such charac-
ter that there ought to be no genuine OBJ
lection to it. 1t involves a very small outlay
Of money, because. as stated in the very full
and excellent report which Representative
Cadmus has made on the bill, there are many
thousands of duplicate works, some in the
Congressional library and others in the de-
partmental collections, which can be properly
contributed for this purpose.
We should not go into so full an explana-
tion OF this bill except for two reasons. First,
members who do not know in advance what
the measure is may, from misapprehension,
avoid making a quorum for its passage on
the belief that it involves drain upon the
Treasury. Second, because, as the means
are at hand for putting the new library into
active operation at once, there is no reason
why tho bill should not be hurried through
the Senate and sent to the President at once
for his signature.
Regarding other District legislation. there
are number of small bills which should be
disposed of. It is sincerely to be regretted
that tho failure of the District Committee to
report no more than one-fourth of the meas
ures submitted to It prevents there being
moro on the Calendar.
But thero Is more than enough good, use
full legislation for the House to pass upon,
and We think We voice the sentiments Of the
people Of Washington when We urge every
member to be In his seat Monday and spare
oas day moro for . duty-that Of strictly
