OVER THE PRESIDENTS VETO.

Congress has passed the river and
harbor appropriation bill over the
presidents veto. Such action in the
House was not surprising; on the part
of the Senate it was, for there are
enough Democrats to have prevented
it, The speech, of Senator Vest is
really surprising. His construction
of the veto power and what the franz
ers of the constitution intended--that
1t should never be used on ordinary
occasions-is no doubt correct But
in this very river and harbor appro-
priation bill the very emergency of
f1asty legislation to which the Senator
refers as an instance where the veto
power might very properly be used
has arisen. Mr.. Vest is understood
to have very bitter feelings towards
the president, but he should not let
them sway his action. as they seem
to have done. in a matter so import
ant as this. He cites how many times
the early presidents exercised the
veto power, conveying the impression
that he is a strict constructionist, yet
his speech and vote on this bill show
him to be very strong advocate of
the old Wing and undemocratic doc
trine of government appropriations
for internal improvements.
The presidents veto was em:nently
right and proper. and the reasons he
gave unanswerable. The single reason
of the condition of the treasury was
ample justification for the veto Nor
is it any answer to this argument to
say that the present condition of the
treasury is the result of the operation
of the Wilson bill or the Mckinley
bin. of Mr.. Cleveland's policy or Cen
eral Harrison's policy. It's more or less
depleted condition is a fact. This fact
is ignored by Congress, nor is any
pretense made that the revenue can
be had fran this or that source. The
faulty of Congress is such that it
appears to think it can commit no
folly in finance and economics; that
it can riot in extravaganza and give
no thought for the morrow; that this
nation is under the special protection
of Divine Providence which will per-
nit it to commit all the follies of which
man is capable and not suffer the con-
sequences of such follies, because, for
sooth, the laws of nature give way
when the United States of America are
an interested party. Neither man nor
nation can defy the laws of nature
and the teachings of experience with
out suffering the consequence of such
defiance.
The Democratic Senators who voted
to pass the river and harbor appro-
priation bill over the presidents veto
voted for the Republican policy of eX-
travagant plundering of the public
treasury.

ATROCITIES in CUBA.

1t is much to be regretted, though
out from Cuba is very unreliable; and
this is equally so, whether it be from
insurgent or Spanish sources. The
stories of atrocities that either party
tells on the other are unquestionably
largely exaggerated, and exaggerated
for the purpose of creating a feeling of
horror and sympathy. When state
of war exists any details of it are
horrible, no matter in how civilized
manner it may be carried on.
The latest account of Spanish out
RACES in the province of Matanzas are
soul sickening. Are they true and
without coloring? For the sake of
humanity it is to be hoped that they are
not. Cruel as the Spaniard is known
to be, as when he applied the tortures
of the Inquisition to Protestants in
Europe for the love of God and holy
church, or torturing Indians in Amer
lea to make them tell where their
treasures were hidden, it seems incred-
ible that a Spanish colonel in the nine
teenth century, although he be in
Cuba, could be guilty of such out
RACES as Molina is charged with. That
any man could order squad of SOL
diers to take a mother and her babe
and shoot them because she could not
tell where her husband was, seems i'm
possible. If he did, then he disgraced
the mother who bore him, his nation
and mankind. and he deserves the exc
Grafton of all men and the punishment
of the eternally damned
Consul-General Lee has arrived in
Havana and through him the Ameri-
can people may expect to receive ac-
curate and unexaggerated reports of
the actual condition of affairs in
Cuba. He knows what war is and
will want proof positive, and not mere
hearsay evidence, before accepting
tales of atrocities by either side. His
reports will be thoroughly reliable

KISSING MIR. CLEVELAND.

We have not and never shall approve
Mr.. Clevelands financial policy. 1t is
a policy to be disapproved. no matter
how honest he may have been in it.
Neither do we admire Mr. Cleveland
nor think him worthy of admiration.
But he is the president of the United
States, having been elected to that
high office by the American people,
and is entitled to respectful treatment
by all; and because he is entitled to
such treatment the action Of the
Democratic convention at Topeka in
Kissing his name when mentioned by
one of the speakers by way of ap-
prevail. was IN exceedingly bad taste
and totally unworthy of any Democrat
ic or other gathering. No demonstra-
ton of disapprcval could have been 50
strong as dignified silence at a
commendatory mention of his name.
There was no call for cuckooism, there
was no occasion for boorishness and
ill-breeding. Disapproval of Mr.. Cleve-
lands administration does not require
that those who disapprove it land we
believe a large majority of the Demo
cratic party does disapprove of iD
shall throw aside their self-respect To
do so is to weaken their action and
beget a sympathy, the sympathy of de-
cency at least, for the person who is
considered obnoxious. Vulgar denun-
citation never carries any weight with
those who really mold public opinion.
The kissing in the Topeka convention
was simply vulgar.

THAT Two-TH1RDs RULE.

Those Democrats who are anxious
that the Chicago convention adopt a
gold platform and nominate a gold
standard candidates are somewhat du-
bious as to their ability to control the
convention. The consequence is that
they are relying very largely upon the
two-thirds rule to enable them to con-
troll the nomina ton if they shall be
unable to dictate the platform. This
is evident from what the Baltimore
Sun says. 1t says that a majority of
the Democratic national convention
can adopt platform. but two-thirds
are required to nominate a candidate.
From these rules interesting results
may follow. If the silverites are In the
majority and adopt a Is to l platform,
that will not profit them if they are
not strong enough to nominate. The
sound money element are pretty GER
tain to be more than one-third of the
convention AS they do not consider
sound money a matter to compromise,
they will be in a position to defeat a
bad nomination. They may, if they see
fit. prevent any nomination at all if
the silverites are bent on abandoning
the traditional sound money doctrine.
This may cause the latter to secede
from the party, which will be a great
advantage to it. 1t is the aSsump-
ton of the name of Democrat by peo-
pie who are not Democrats that has
been running the party for years past. .
A majority of the Democratic ma
tional convention can adopt a platform
and majority can nominate can
date. What is to hinder? The majority
makes the rules of the convention, and
that majority can adopt or reject the
two-thirds rule as it sees fit. 1t is as
absolutely competent 10 do this as it
is to name the permanent chairman or
DO anything else.
For sixty-four years. or since the
Democratic party made presidential
/ nominations in national convention.
the party has nominated its presiden-
tial candidates under the two-thirds
rule. That TO abolish the rule at Chi
cago would be a very difficult matter
is probably true. The length and Sc
verify of the struggle for its abolish
ment would depend entirely upon the
temper of the majority of the conven-
ton. If the silver men are that ma
jority, and we confidently believe they
will be, their temper will be such that
the moment they perceive any dispo-
sition ON the part Of the gold men to
defeat their purposes in the matter Of
a platform and candidate. they viii
not hesitate single moment to ride
rough shod over the minority and
throw the two-thfrds rule out of the
window. The Sun says that the silver
men, in certain contingencies, may Sc
cede. Majorities never secede. Il
there is to be any seeding or boiling
at Chicago, it will be done by the gold
men.

/. STREET FRANCHISE DECISION.

The supreme court OF Missouri has
lust made a very important decision
regarding the use of streets by pri-
vate parties or corporations. 1t holds
that all city ordinances that are grant
ing corporations the right to lay con-
duits and subways for electric wires
and other similar uses, are void. The
city holds the streets in trust and can
rot grant their use for private pur-
poses.
1t is very doubtful if this opinion by
the Missouri court will be generally
SHOWED by the other courts of the
country That city cannot grant the
use of the streets for strictly private
purposes is true. but to grant their use
to corporations for conduits and sub
ways for electric wires and similar
uses is in the nature OF a public use
If the use of the streets for poles that
wires may be strung upon them is al
lowable it would seem that there can
be no legal objections to their use for
conduits and subways for electric

WALES HORSE A DERBY WINNER.

The Prince of Wales is heir to the
throne of England. He is this by
birth. The next and proudest distinc-
ton in England is to be the owner of
the winner of the Derby. The Prince
of Wales has achieved this proud dis
tinction, and it may we'll be doubted
if in all his life he has had a prouder
moment than yesterday at Epson
Downs when his horse Persimmons
landed for him the blue ribbon of the
turf. 1t is true that the Derby is but
a horse race, but it is race in which
Englishmen throughout the world are
interested. 1t may almost be said thai
to be the fortunate owner of Derby
winner is to have the entree to English
society.
Lord Rosebery had the remarkable
good luck to own two winners, Ladas
and st. Visto, and while as premier
he had much TO worry him and he went
out of Office knowing that his govern
ment had no been a success, still he
had the great solace of two Derbys to
his credit.
This most famous of English races
has never been won by an American
horse but once. That horse was Mr.
Pierre Lorillard's Iroquois. And when
he won Punch got off the very witty
saying. and which let the defeated
English down easy, "Je ne sails pas
