that be necessary to check the aggressor.
Consideration even of the question of a dec
laration of war by the American Congress
is thus removed from the present time by
the space of three ifs, the first of which
will not, it is believed be passed. 1t is to
be remembered that Salisbury has intimated
to the United States that under no condition
Of facts is the Venezuelan boundary a mat
ter of concern to the United States, and has
rejected the American suggestion that the
whole controversy be submitted to impartial
arbitration. Let the peace elements address
themselves as primary task to the modi-
fcation of Sallsbury's position which pre-
fers war to arbitration. In response to
salisbury's contemptuous declaration the
President and Congress Of the United States,
who represent the people in all matters
pertaining to war and peace. have indicated
unanimously that there are conditions I'M
der which the Venezuelan boundary may be
matter of concern to the United States,
and that We will seek Immediately to dis
cover whether those conditions exist. But
there is nothing now at issue and nothing
that can arise In the future in the Venez-
uelan controversy that. this peace-loving
nation will not gladly have arbitrated. The
United States by the unanimous voice of
all branches of it's government has laid
down broad principle. The people do not
want to fight England or anybody else, but
they Will adhere to this principle. Let the
peace associations and the divines, the
STOCK Spectators and the candidates for the
Ensllsh poet-laureateship level their reso-
lutlons their denunciations, and their verses
at the English premier who threatens the
two nations with the possibilities of war
rather than submit an English claim to
American soil to impartial arbitration.

Another Railroad Junction of North
and South.

There appears to be revival of the hope
make a combination with the Southern rail-
road that will give the former a southern
connection and the latter through way
to the north, with Washington as the juno
ton point. The gap between these two
great systems Is a very short one, and can
pense. Georgetown lies naturally in the
way of whatever additional trackage may
be necessary to complete the union of the
two roads, and it is most appropriate that
the head of navigation on the Potomac,
with its splendid facilities for water COM
muncation with the north and the south,
should become the terminal of the two
systems. Undoubtedly such a plan would
be of great benefit to the local interests
and the people of Washington have long
desired its contamination as affording
them more complete railroad equipment
for the inflow and outflow of their sales
and purchases and as part Of the remedy
for the freight blockades that periodically
embarrass the local merchants. The Poto-
mac should be spanned by a handsome
bridge if the junction should become
fact, and the construction and equipment
of the roads where they touch the city
should be made thoroughly modern in
order to prevent a repetition of the grave
evils through unguarded grade crossings
that have marked the entry of railroads
into other parts of the capital

A '0G Christmas Gift to Washington

Some time this winter the wise men Of
Congress ought to get together and plan
to give the people of the District of Co.
lumbia a handsome present next Christ
mas day. In all justice this should be
dore without any reference to the seasons
or the appropriateness of the gift, for the
Christmas present that The Star has in
mind as being decidedly acceptable is a
new municipal building. which has been
'just what was needed for many years.
A bill passed at this session providing for
the erection somewhere on the south side
Of Pennsylvania avenue of commodious
and artistic structure would probably be-
gin to have it's practical effect about
year hence, and it would be a gala day for
mas Gay, 1896, they could assemble and
make merry over the first spadeful of
earth taken from the site of this greatly
desired civic home. 1t may be said that
1t would not be altogether an unmIxed
act of generosity for Congress to provide
the District will pay one-half of the cost
of such a Christmas gift but inasmuch as
even this share of the expense cannot be
raised by the citizens without the authority
of Congress and the action of the govern
ment in experimenting it with an equal
ton would be accepted in spirit of hearty
good will and thankfulness by the people
of the District.

Pence.

Nearly nineteen centuries ago there came
from Heaven a messenger of peace, whose
life and death taught the greatest lesson of
the ages. His birth was heralded by strange
events, the appearance of brilliant star,
the portents of unearthly happenings,
visions to simple shepherds on the plains of
Judea, angelic voices crying: "On earth
peace. on earth peace; goodwill toward
men" And though the world has steadily
felt the elevating, purifying influence of the
life thus given to mankind for its better
ment, and has gone forward in kindness
and civilization, the nations Of the earth
have striven with each other continually
since then. and men have slain men, and the
horrors of war have darkened the his tory of
Christianity. Thousands, tens of thous-
ands, of lives have been sacrificed even in
the advancement of the religion Of peace,
founded upon the life of Him who was born
eighteen hundred and ninety-fve years ago
In Bethlehem. War has followed wal, and
the injunction of ION earth peace seems
to have fallen on deaf ears.
The day of goodwill toward men" may
never come in all its fulness but slowly the
Inhabitants of the earth are growing better
known to each other and are drawing closer.
Tolerance and understanding have cleared
the way for better conditions. Christianity
is striving after that high ideal of living
set by Christ himself a good and gentle life,
full of forgiveness and charity, humble and
earnest, pure and sweet. Lives like His are
rare, indeed. Were all like His the day of
universal and eternal peace on earth"
would come at last.
There is the peace of contentment, the
peace of honor, the peace of humiliat ton.
Nations composed of warlike men are not
content with peace of any kind; they strive
for the possessions of others, for the lands
of other nations, and they seek to dominate
the earth by force of arms. Again the ma
ton of calm and kindly people, strong in
mind but weak in prowess, will sacrifice even
lands and sometimes honor for the sake of
peace. The mingling of men has so marked
the progress of the last century or two that
gradually the strong national character
istics are fading. There is more of an equal
ity between the great families of the earth,
and the spread of knowledge, the advance
ment of science, the union of interests by
bonds of sympathy, have all tended to make
the people of the earth more nearly one peo-
PIE, and to bring more peace and more hap
piRess. This great land Of freedom and in
dividual liberty is at this Christmas season
called upon to contemplate the remote pos
sibility of war; a war; too, with nation of
men of common blood and common speech,
and on this Day of Peace the spirit of strife
Is aroused in both countries. May the ma
tons find way to reach an understandings
May there be peace-not the peace of humil-
iation, hut the peace of honor!

The Way to Ensure Peace.

American divines and operators in stocks
say to President end Congress there must
be no war. English divines and commercial
interests say to Salisbury there must be no
war. If Salisbury ignores the possibilities
of war and, unmoved by the appeals of the
English peace party, adheres stubbornly to
his refusal either to come to an amicable
agreement with Venezuela or to submit the
boundary dispute to impartial arbitration,
and If our boundary commission after de-
hberate investigation reports to our gov
eminent that England is acquiring by force
South American soil. and If England contin-
ues to hold by force of arms the territory
thus unlawfully acquired, then the Congress
OF the United States must say whether it
agrees with the President that British ag-
gression must be resisted by our armies. if

The Senate's Gift to the South.

1t was appropriate for the Senate to pass,
on the day before Christmas, the bill per-
hitting ex-Confederates to enter the army
and navy Of the United States. The men who
fought for the south in the civil war and
survived that conflict have entered every
line of public life. They have become off,
Gals of town, city, county and state; they
have come to both branches of the national
legislature, and they have even entered the
Presidents cabinet. They serve in the Ma
tional Guard, and their voice is always
strong for a patriotic defense of the iber-
ties and principles of the nations people.
The war closed over thirty years ago-the
exact lapse of time Is yet matter of contro-
versy-and the wounds caused by the strife
between the sections of the country have
gradually healed until the nation is now
thoroughly reunited and sound. No official
action could do more to efface completely
the last scar left on the body polite by the
struggle than this simple act of generosity,
that permits the people of the southland
who once took up arms against the govern
ment to enroll themselves in the ranks of
the country's defenders. The hope is that
there will be no need of fighters during the
remaining years of the lives of the men
whom such a law would affect. There are
now comparatively few survivors of the
confederate army who are physically quail
fled to enter the army in active capacities,
so that even in the event of war, the act If
1t should become law, would be of little
practical utility. 1t is thus rather a senti-
mental matter, but the action of the SEN
ate, which should be speedily followed by
the concurrence of the House and the ap-
prevail of the President, will doubtless pro-
duce a most wholesome effect in all sections
of the country. The men directly affected
by the legislation will surely appreciate the
Christmas present of confidence rendered
them by the Senate. whether or not there
is ever any occasion for them to take ad-
vantage Of 1t.

principles, has already arranged to supply
immediate temporary relief through aims
in urgent cases, and is hoping and planning
to provide relief through work "to all those

push forward vigorously on these lines.
