THE PRESIDENT PARAMOUNT.

The declaration of Secretary Olney
that the President would not regard n
joint resolution passed over his veto as
binding upon his action, cut merely as
an expression of opinion by Congress.
has caused no end of comment through
out the country and especially in Con-
gressional circles. The Secretary MAY be
right, and probably is right in his opin-
ion as to what the President would do
under such circumstances. but all the
same II was exceedingly indiscreet and
impolitic in him to have so expressed
himself.
The immediate cause of the expression
was the action of the Foreign Relations
Committee of the Senate ordering a ia
'vorable report made to the Senate Mon
day on Senator Cameron's resolution rec
ognizing the independence OF the Repub-
lie of Cuba. The Secretary, when mp
preached OH the question, assumed the
position that Congress could not force
the President to carry out the resolu-
tions unless he was so disposed-that the
duty of recognition devolved upon the
President and not upon Congress, and
that ever If the bill was passed over
his veto he would not put IT into exc
cution. In other words, in the matter OF
recognizing the independence Of any
country. the President is
and unless he believes the condition of
affairs warrant such recognition he will
use his own judgment in defiance of
what Congress IN a say or do. This
Is a grave question, and one about which
there is a great diversity OF opinion.
even among the best constitutional law
yers of the country. There are those who
take u similar view of the matter as
Secretary Olney, holding that the power
OF recognition is solely vested in the
President, while others, differing widely,
hold that recognition must come through
concurrent action of the President and
Congress, and in the event of
non-concurrence OIL the part of
the Executive. Congress has a
right to so declare and order its act
put into execution. They advance the
argument supposing the necessities Of
the occasion demanded recognition or
the accordance of belligerent rights, and
that the President refused to carry out
the VIII OF Congress simply because he

able to do under such circumstances,
They argue that such action on the
part of the President simply reduces the
government to n one man power. and
those who are favoring the recognition

Fires at Sea.

The burning Of the Centaur, off
Hawaii, gives warning that coal
ships are not the only vessels that
need to carry fire-fighting appar-
atus. The account of the loss OF
the vessel proves that a chemical
engine such as has been recon-
mended for the coal ships would
have handled the fire without diff
ficulty and saved the ship with
but Il trifiing damage. When the
long list is recalled of burned
ships and ships that have reached
port with Il furnace under the
deck, it is cause for establishment
that neither owners nor insurers
pay any attention to the equip,
ment of the vessels with an eff
fective tire-tighting apparatus.
The only weapons offered against
fire are the ships pumps, and
these have the triple distinction
of being almost useless against
a fire, certain to damage the car
90, and dangerous to the ships.
1t is charitable to suppose that
ignorance and stupidity account
for the failure to take advantage
of the safe and effective machin-
cry science has offered for fight
ing fires. The chemical engine
now in use in every large fire de-
partment is devised especially for
fighting just such fires as usually
occur on shipbOard-a hidden fire
in a confined space where water
will do as much damage as it will
prevent. The chemical engine is
cheap and effective. y dozen of
them could be got for $4,000 or
$4,000, and if a dozen of them
had been distributed to the right
ships in the course of the past six
or eight months, they would have
saved property valued above 81,
100000. 1t might be supposed
that this property would be con-
worth saving. But if
owners and insurers do not think
enough of their own interests to
protect their vessels, the human
life at stake is ample warrant to
urge the civilized Governments to
require the vessels that carry
cargoes to take also a
modern and efficient fire-fighting

More Opium.

Lieutenant Holi arrested All Lum on
Pauahi street last night for having
opium in possession. One lichee nut of
the slippery stuff was found. The Chi
naman made some resistance and tried
to bride Lieutenant Holt, but the bluff
would not work, and he was made to
walk down to the police station, where
he was kept all night. His trial will
probably come up to day. Whenever
Lieutenant Holt goes out after opium
he succeeds in finding it, although some
times in very small quantities.

toria social at independence Park
pavilion Wednesday evening.
Toward the close extra cars will
be run at frequent intervals, so
that no one need be tied to time.
