HASN'T DECIDED YET.
Minister Eustis Has an Inter-
view in Paris Figaro.
Hasn't Determined About Run
ming for President.
VOTnG THE GTRTENT
AVOIDS THE SUBJECT.
He Talks of the Chinese War
and Treaties.
Denies There is a Secret Treaty
Between Japan and g. s.

PARIS, July 8-The Figaro publishes
an interview today with U. s. ambassa-
dor to France, James B. Eustis, in which
he is reported as saying that nothing has
yet been decided as to his candidacy for
the nomination of president of the
United States,
Respecting the Japanese Chinese war,
Mr.. Eustis is quoted as remarking that
he regretted that the Japanese had not
taken Pekin. The story of a secret
treaty he added, between Japan and
the United States was absolutely untrue.
I'VE have no treaty with Japan" he con-
tlnued, "other than the arrangement
modifying former treaties and even this
does not come into force for five years
Besides the United States adheres before
everything to the principle of non-inter-
vention in European, or Asiatic affairs. !"
With reference to the movement in
Canada to separate the dominion from
Great Britain. Mr.. Eustis said it rested
entirely with the United States as to
whether Canada should or should not be
taken into the confederation of states.
But the people of the United States
preferred to let the question rest, while
at the same time saying to Great Britain
''no nonsense or we will annex Canada"
Regarding the insurrection in Cuba
Mr.. Eustis is reported as having
admitted that Americas sympathies
favored the insurgents who found
in the United States unknown to
the government of that country, assis
lance of all kinds.
In conclusion Mr. Eustis is quoted as
saying: If the insurgents can maintain
the struggle for a year I am not sure
that Spain will not have f;ltilely sDent
her money on costly expeditions"

DESIRE GOOD RELATIONS.

LObanOR at st. Petersburg.
NEW YORK, July 8.-A special to the
Herald from ST. Petersburg says a Bull
garian deputation has been received by
Prince Lobanof, minister of foreign
affairs, but the audience was not of a
political character.
The delegates themselves admit in an
interview with members of the ST.
Petersburg press that the chief object
of their visit was to lay a wreath on the
coffin of the late car. All they desire is
to dissipate the misunderstanding be-
tween Russia and Bulgaria and re- estab-
lish the good relations.

An effort is to be made In the next
legislature. 1t is said, to confer upon
electric railroads the right of eminent
domain, thus overcoming the recent de-
cision of the Supreme court to the ef-
feet that no road can be built on a
public highway without the written
consent of the owners OF, ,abutting prop
erty 1t is plausibly argued that there

the capital necessary in their construc-
tion. and enabling the builders of such
railways to get the better of obstinate
or unreasonable property-owners in
negotiations for rights of way.
But while this argument Is valid ito a
certain degree, the fact should be
borne in mind that the extension of the
right Of eminent domain Is an exercise
of sovereign power which should not
be lightly practiced. When a majority
of the owners Of abuttlng property

Put Some Ginger Into It.

Senator Davis, of Minnesota, is not
alone in his belief that the United
States ought either to stand firm for
the maintenance OF, its rights in Vene-
zuela or else formally and by proclama-
tion abandon the Monroe doctrine as
scarecrow which will no longer
frighten. His point that England has
given in the Dominion of Canada a
hostage of peace to the United States
far outvaluing the most that she could
hope to obtain or inAict by war" is well
taken.
The principle that "the American con-
tinents, by the free and Independent
condition which they have assumed and
maintain, are henceforth not to be con-
sldered as subject for future coloniza-
tion by any European powers" laid
down by President Monroe in his fam
Gus message, either applies to England
or 1t does not. If 1t does not, then it
cannot logically apply to any other
European power, and is worth absolute
ly nothing. II It does apply to Eng
land, 1t certainly includes within It's in
ferential prohibition as well the filch-
Ing Of American territory by artful and
indirect means as its open Seizure by
force Of arms. The principle cannot
yield single point, else the whole Of
1t must soon collapse through sheer
lack Of logic.
1t is undoubtedly true that the pow
ers OF Europe do not recognize the
Monroe doctrine" We know that from
the clever way in which they have at
various times sought to circumvent 1t.
But 1t is time they were made to recog-
nize 1t in a most explicit manner, and

AN IMPORTANT ELECTION.

From the Philadelphia Press.
1t would be a mistake for the Republi-
cans of Pennsylvania TO assume that
nothing Is involved in the coming olec
ton in the state but the choice of a state
treasurer and seven judges of the Superior

the proper choice of whom requires In
telligence and good judgment on the part
of the citizen, but 1t should not be for

Sherman and Garfield.

The discussion w'hich has arisen con-
cerning the alleged disloyalty of Cen
eral Garfield in the national conven-
ton of 1880 TO Senator John Sherman.
whom he was pledged to support, has
exhibited nothing quite so conspicuous
ly as the fact that there are a large
number OF big. little and intermediate
politicians in the country who are ach-
ing to rush into print Now that each
has had his say, the matter stands just
where 1t previously stood. and opinion
divides as formerly on lives of individ-
ual prediction or prejudice.
From any standpoint, one is bound
to notice three facts: that Sherman
was displeased at Garfelds success,
coming as 1t did; that Garfield, II he
betrayed Sherman, did 1t unconsciously
and in a moment of weakness, but not
as the elimination OF "a long-plotted
design; and, lastly. that Garfield was
a man OF feeble Will power and uncer-
tain moral strength. 1t has been our
own belief that General Garfeld's rep
utation was saved by the unexpected
tragedy of mis- death. Weak to a de-
gree in certain personal character
istlcs. 1t needed simply time and oppor-
tunity for that lack of reserve force
to exhibit Itself in his public actions.
Death, almost charitably as II now
seems interyened before the occasion
of critical test presented itself, and
elevated a bit of decidedly human clay
to apotheosis and Immortality.
But 1t Is doubtles well that II should
be as vt Is, and nothing will be gained
by seeking to undo It,
