MIR. TURPIE on CUBA.

The passage by the two houses or Con-
gross of the report of the conference
committees did not remove thai
disturbing question from the Sen
ate On wednesday last Mr.. Tur-
pie. Of Indiana, made screening
speech, commenting particularly upon
Senator Sherman and Senator Lodge
The speech was made in support OF the
Joint resolutions introduced on the LIST
instant by Mr.. Call. of Florida, proposing
Intervention In the war or rebellion
now being prosecuted in Cuba.
Mr.. Turple after proper introduction
and after making some general remarks
OF a sarcastic nature, went on TO say tha'
the Netherlands had been lost to SPAN
and Cuba would be lost to Spain.
"Nay." he exclaimed, Cuba Is lost 10
Spain. irrevocably lost. There is no more
chance on the face Of things to-day TOT
the re-establishment of the Spanish uoN-
eminent I'm the island of Cuba than there
is for the re-establshment of the French
domain in San Domingo" He added mat
the Cuban republic was an orgahiEeu
body: that 1t had a country; that IL hau
maintained war for twelve years. anu
that II had earned for itself the right ana
title TO recognition as belligereht
mower. Here Mr.. Turpie spoke very
appropriately of the speech OF the
Earl of Chatham TO the British Parlia-
mont in defence of the American Colonies.
and quoted from that speech as fol-
lows: "My lords. you cannot conquer
America. You may raise armies; you
may make campaigns; you may even WIN
battles; but you can never subdue the
spirit Of liberty in that people"
Mr.. Turpie was not speaking for bun
combe. but giving utterance to his nom
est and deep-seated convictions. lie
voiced the opinions of the people of the
United States as these were expressed
In the House Of Representatives on
Monday last in the vote cast
on the report Of the conference
committee on the Cuban question.
The vote was yeas. 2S; nays. q.
IL was so large an affirmative vote that
the people Of the United States will look
upon it as a vote representing correctly
the seventy millions of people OF this
country.
Let the people of the United States
ponder the questions involved In this
Cuban matter and they will learn that
Anticipated international law is quoted in
the American Congress as superior TO
the rights of man, or If this be too harsh
a phrase, that the laws OF nations are
quoted there as superior to the laws of
the insurgents in Cuba. these "insur-
gents" so-called being the people who
claim to constitute the republic of Cuba.
The Monroe doctrine is not acknow-
lodged in its fulness by all OF our con-
gressmen. but the vote Of last Monday
may be accepted as very significant

TURKEY AND MISSIONARIES.

London advices announce that England
Is very much stirred up over the proposed
expulsion from Asia Minor of the mis-
sionaries. But what is England going to
do about it? That's the question that
exercises the civilized world. Time was
when a stirrlng-up in England over such
matters meant a great deal, and we
could confidently look for such condition
TO lead to summary action. Alas, how
ever a great change appears to have come
over the spirit OF England's dream and
policy. On several occasions recently
England was tremendously stirred up
over the Armenian atrocities-stirred up
to a degree that excited great expecta-
lions that she would pitch into Abdul
Hamid. horse, foot, and gunboat, and
bring him to his senses in short order.
She even went so far In once instance
as to issue an ultimatum. and made seve-
raj very savage threats against Turkey.
But neither the ultimatum nor the threats
amounted TO anything. All the while
the willy Sultan was playing Eng
land and the Franco-Russian combina-
ton against each other, and when the
game ended. Russia had trumped the
Porte, leaving the British Government
in q humiliating position in the public
eve. both at nome and abroad. Not
only would il appear that England was
beaten automatically in the game, but
the consensus of opinion is that she was
compelled to come nearer to a square
backdown than ever before under SINH
lar circumstances. Salisbury, 1t is true,
gave an explanation OF why England
aid not consider herself obligated to re-
sort TO summary measures to enforce
her demands for the relief Of the Arme-
mans; but the general verdict was that
his explanation did not satisfactorily ex-
plain.
However. blood Is thicker than water,
and the maltreatment, much less the
killing, OF one English missionary, would.
when we come down TO the real senti-
ment of the matter, prove decidedly
more serious affair in the eyes OF the
british public than the slaughter Of a
WhOle Town luIi VI al iN''S' ~ NV
fore, the proposed expulsion OF the mis-
sionaries should result in outrages upon
that class, Salisbury would hardly dare
pursue further shilly-shallying policy In
dealing with the Sultan. In fact, now,
that England has been so greatly
strengthened by her understanding with
the Dreibund. it is not improbable that a
trouble over the missionary issue would
be made the occasion by Salisbury for at
tempting TO recoup on the whole Arme-
MAN question.

THE METRIC SYSTEM.

We have had occasion several times
10 say that. because u man favored the
decimal system, IT dia not follow that
no must favor a double-decimal system.
The House Of Representatives seemed to
take the same view OF the question on
"Wednesday. as il spent two hours In roll
calls on questions relating 10 the bill
20 make the metric system the legal sys-
TEN Of weights ana measures In this
country after January /. 1891, and finally
.recommitted the bill 10 the Committee
on Coinage Weights and Measures.
We take IT that the metrical system
will not be adopted by the present Con-
sress. IL Is one thing to have q metri-
cal system OF money. as we have In the
United States. and another thing to have
I both the thing measured and the money
whcrewith II is measured made a legal
requirement. The decimal system gives
our people coins convenient for every
day use; but It does not follow that q
decimal system applied to cloth. corn.
wheat. hats. clothing. &C.. Sc. is desira-

subject. The people are not yet ready

Ben. Harrison is pretty generally
spoken of by the Republican papers Of
the North as the most promising dark
horse likely TO be trotted out at the St
Louis convention. And the General is
credited with timing his marriage so as
to put his name in every ones mouth
just at the moment when conventions arc
being held to eject delegates TO the Ma
tional Republican Convention. This view,
however, fails TO take into consideration
the fact that it was Mrs. Harrison's
province 10 name the happy day" so.
IL there was any significance in the APP
pointment OF the wedding-day. Mrs. Har-
rison should be held TO account; but we
may be sure that Mr.. and Mrs. Harri-
son, both, are dying" 10 get back into

Lessee to Have the Track.

In the report published yesterday OF
the meeting OF the Executive Committee
from the Virginia Agricultural and Me-
chanical society, it was stated that an
amendment to the lease had been adopt
ed, providing that the Confederate Vete-
rams should have exclusive control OF
the grounds and buildings and the race
track. The report should have read
that they were TO have exclusive use Of
the grounds and buildings east of the
race-track during their reunion.
The veterans do not waT' the race
track. as all entertainments given by
them Will be of a complimentary ma
ture. The lessee Of the grounds can give
races or any other form Of amusement
and, as there will be many more people
here than could possibly witness an en-
tertainment Of any kind in the auditori-
I'm, IL is thought by quite a number
OF people that IT would be an excellent
idea TO have races or some form OF
amusement where the visitors could
spend an hour or two Of their time.

for change Of their weights and mea-
sures nor even to vote upon the aues-
ton.
Congressman otey. OF Virginia, made a
good speech on this subject on "eune'-
day last in the House Of Representatives
He arrayed the objections to the bill 10
make the metric system the lawful sys-
TEN OF coins. weights, and measures IN
this country. We are glad to find prac-
teal men coming UP with right views
and making known their objections TO
system OF coins. weights. and measures
which would long ago have been the es-
tablished system Of the United states II
II had possessed one half the merits
claimed for II. We have no objection 10
coins based upon the metric system. but
as nj present advised, we do not favor
the double-decimal system-that is, the
decimal system applied to other articles
than money.
