A LITTLE sNOBBERY.

Senator Cali is evidently wag as well as
e man Of affairs Lately he received q letter
commencing his resolution of inquiry into
the operations OF the Honduras Lottery Com
pany in this country which gave opportunity
to show up little clerical fiufkyism and also
to further his scheme Of investigation. The
letter was written by the Rev. Adolus Allen at
hereguest of the Presbyterian Ministers As
sociation Of this city. and signed by that gentle
man as Pastor First Presbyterian Church.
attended by the President and Mrs. CIeve-
land
II NAV be that the Rev. Allen was stinu-
lated by a feeling Of pride because his SER
mons were listened TO by such distinguished
personages, but it is more likely that be was
aetuated by a desire to uplift himself on the
boot-strap plan.
such snobbery is not justified in this coun-
try. nor will the President and Mrs. Cleve-
land feel honored at such notoriety. 1t will
do in England TO advertise as chaplain TO
Her Royal Highness and to announce on gilt
edged cards that the bearer is chiropodist to
the Prince Of Wales, but here even the bluest
blood refuses to enthuse at such methods.
Meantime the Presbyterian ministers, at
whose direction the letter was written, are
probably wondering why the Rev. Adolus
Allen did not attach his signature as secre-
tarv Of their association.

Those of the Fourth Class Invariably

has sent to the Senate statement in which
he says that OF the 29S Presidential off ces in
the State. 1853 OF those who were in office on
March 4, '93. were allowed TO serve out their
full term and twenty-three have been re-
moved for cause prior TO the expiration OF
their terms OF Office.
There are sixty-four whose terms have not
yet expired and there are sixteen eases in
which no nominations have been made when
the terms of the occupants have expired. Re-
plying to the specific inquiry concerning the
policy adopted by the present administration
with reference to fourth class postmasters
who were appointed for no fixed terms he
says:
''It is, and has been, that they are allowed
invariably TO serve n term of four years, and
none are removed prior TO the expiration OF
the full term of four years except for cause
shown. The number of such postmasters in

PROTECT WAGE FARMERS.

The attention of Congress is once more
called TO the labor arbitration bill. There
nay be more important measures pending,
but no bill that Congress can pass would ac-
complish greater good than an arbitration
law.
The tendency of railroad corporations TO
cut wages is sure to bring on labor troubles
unless way is provided to refer wage diff
ferences to a competent tribunal. The Olney
bin, as reported by the committee, provides
such a tribunal, and as conservator Of
peace and harmonious relations between en-
ployer and employed its benefits eannct be
overestimated.
AT first trial an arbitration law may not
reach our statutes in a perfected condition,
bur the effort should be made, and the best
thought possible rystalized, so that wage
earners may find protection against the
cupidity Of railroad corporations. Let the
country have such 4 law without further de-
lav

1T CARRIED NO APPROPRIATION.

AS was expected the subcommittee of the
Senate, to whom the dollar gas bill was re-
ferred. have decided 10 submit an adverse re-
port TO the full committee next Monday.
Except necessary appropriations this Con-
gress has not passed measure OF general
public importance. Washington needs better
water facilities, cheaper gas. improved sewer
age. another Printing Ofice, a railroad
viaduct, more school houses, and other public
improvements, which Congress has re-
fused 10 give. But every bill backed by a
corporation OF influence has been considered.
and in most instances enacted.
1t is no wonder that the public is clamor-
ing for District suffrage, for freedom from
the grip of rings and the domination Of a
lobbying Congress. The rejection of the
dollar gas bill is only one of many disappoint-
ments No Improvement has ever been made
in the District without its divvy TO a ring,
and had the gas bill provided some kind OF
an appropriation lis chances for passing
would have been greatly improved.

REFUSED TO RESTRAIN HIM.

Judge Cox VIII Not Enjoin Commissioner
Miller from Action in Income tax Cases.
The court Of appeals yesterday sustained
Judge Hagners decision that there is no
good ground for an injunction to restrain
Commissioner of Internal Revenue Miller
from collecting the income tax.
Recognizing that the decision is only step
toward taking the case to the United States
Supreme Court, Chief Justice Alvey, who
wrote the opinion says there is no good rea-
son for an eabor- "a consideration of the
questions presented. He says the court is
asked to deal with the case before the facts
are brought into existence.
He calls attention to section 1924. Revised
Statutes OF the United States, which reads:
''No suit for the purpose of restraining the
assessment or collection of any tax shall be
maintained in any court" and suggests that
the court cannot extend relief by injunction
in the case contemplated. Without consider
ing the main questions the court afflrms the
decision below.

SYSTEMATIC LEGISLATION.

One thing is being made tolerably clear to
the intelligent observer by the votes, both in
the Committee on Ways and Means and in
the House, on the gold bond proposition,
and that is that the currency problem, like
many other great economic questions which
confront the nation, viii not be settled per-
manently by any party as such, or upon
party lines. This fact stood out quite strongly
during the tariff fight; it is made even palmer
by the proceedings in Congress in relation to
the currency.
The raising OF revenue and the administra-
tion OF the affairs OF the Treasury are purely
practical matters The further they are re-

The Southern Railway delegates, repre-

offered to them by the company.
The schedule was in some features accept
able to the conference, but the fact that in
some instances the old rate was restored
