OF the party, to be held in Chicago on
Tuesday, July 7th. In tho course of

Fire.
Stripped of all sentiment, and viewed
in the cold light Of existing situations,
tho action of Congress in adopting the
Armenian resolutions looks very much
like an attempt by this government to
help several leading European countries
out of very perplexing situation.
The reports of the massacres OF Ar
menians by the Turkish troops and sub
jects, as they have been received in
this country, are stories of cruel out
RACES and bloody atrocities But tLey
have not been subjected to the test OF
official scrutiny, and il is impossible TO
say how much Of the horror that seems
to attend them might be dissipated by
tho search light Of rigid and impair
tiai investigation.
But one fact not subject Of dispute
is that not an American missionary or
an American subject Of any kind has
been murdered. There have been re-
ports of some injury to property OF
Americans which were promptly pressed
upon tho attention of the Turkish
authorities and reparation promised.
Whatever may be the extent of the
Turkish outrages in Armenia, they are
the direct concern of tho European
Powers which entered into the treaty
of Berlin, respecting the future progress
OF alfairR in the Ottoman Empire. By
that treaty they are absolutely en-
powered to act in the matter. 1t is not
only their right, but their duty to do
so. Any one Of these powers is able
to call Turkey to account and compel
decent regard for the rights of the
Armenians and of the missionaries en-
gaged in following their labors in that
country.
The European Powers, however, are
evidently afraid TO proceed. The
movement of one might be construed
by another as an overt act, and then
there would be trouble for the pre-
sumed aggressor. 1t doubtless would
be nicc thing for these willy and in
triguing governments for the United
States TO step in and hold the Turk by
the throat, while they came up and
dismembered his empire and divided
his possessions among themselves.
This country might with propriety
call upon the European Powers to dc
their duty and stop the Armenian out
RACES. To take decisive step on our
own account. however, is too much
like acting as cats paw to pull from
the fire the Turkish chestnuts that the
mouths of the Powers are watering for,
but which they are afraid to reach out
and take.
1t is not consistent for this country
TO go out of its way aud take decided
step in determining a serious compli.
cation in European affairs, while in.
sisting in its own behalf that al
Europe shall keep hands Off in matters
pertaining to this hemisphere.

II is said that tho Pennsylvania dele
CATION to the next Democratic national
convention will unanimously present
the name OF ex- Governor Robert Il.
Pattison as their choice for President,
and urge his nomination. 1t will be
curious, in this event, TO note the atti-
tude of the New York delegation. Four
years ago, when the latter delegation
SO fiercely opposed the nomination OF
President Cleveland, it's leaders sent
word to William +. Harrity, who led
the Pennsylvania delegation, informing
him that New York would cast ~ votes
for Pattison, and asking him what
Pennsylvania would do Very shrewdly
Mr.. Harrity made answer that Penn
sylvania would return tho compliment
by casting its entire vote for New
York's favorite son, Grover Cleveland.
Mr. Harrity was acting under instruc-
ions from Mr.. Pattison, who believed
that his party wanted Cleveland as its
Presidential candidate, and no would
not stand in his way. Pennsylvania is
not an ideal locality from which to
select a Democratic candidate for
President, but it can he said of Mr..
Pattison that he fully measures up to
the Jetfersonian standard of honesty
and capability, and is sound on the
leading issues of the day. The party
might do better. 1t also might do a
great deal worse, without much of an
effort

The Democrats of Alabama arc hope
lessiy divided into two factions, and
each faction is making determined
bid for tho negro vote. The State
committee has gone to the extent of
opening tho party primaries to all
negroes who will bind themselves TO
support the successful nominees, and
the canvass for colored votes by both
factions will be vigorous and persist
ent. The move Of the State committees
is supposed to be in the interest Of the
free silver coinage wing of the party,
but it may result in consequences far
reaching and important. 1t may cause
the negro voters of the State TO become
independent and to divide upon politi
cal lines, as white voters divide, in.
stead Of solidly and ignorantly allying
themselves with the Republican party,
as has been the case ever since emanci-
patton. Tho eoidity Of the negro vote,
the fact that it almost invariably is
cast in body for one party, regardless
Of the issues involved in the campaign,
ia what makes il a dangerous element
in politics. There is no reason why
colored voters should not have decided
views upon finance, tariff and other
public questions, as well as white men,
and vote their sentiments instead of
blindly voting the Republican ticket
simply because they are colored men.

Peaceful victory.

The Sunday Star Of Sunday, in the
course of an editorial considering the
Venezuelan question. has this to say
There is one important collateral
phase Of the Venezuelan question which
has been overlooked by nearly every
one. Our attention IL called to it by a
prominent manufacturer who, like
many other patriotic Americans, can
see no reason why we should slobber
over England and shed sentimental tears
because somo one has auggeHted the
possibility of conflict with that coun-
try. As matter OF fact, as our manu-
featuring friend points out. a CONNER
clal war has long been waging between
the United States and England, in
which tho older country has been stead
lily worsted England has found the
American victories of peace to be in
some respects more disastrous than
those of war While the American
navy OF 1912 was too small to seriously
threaten the naval supremacy OF Great
Britain, American commerce OF to-day il
threatening her commercial supremacy
all over the globe. The commercial
war has been carried into Africa, "
and American goods are even supplant-
ing English made goods in the British
markets. We have il from we'll
informed shoe dealer of this city that
| shoes made by manufacturers of this
| country are crowding the English made
shoe out of the market in Birmingham
and Liverpool.
American woolens, tools and hard
ware are being sold in English CONNER
cial centres TO the exclusion Of English
goods, and a prominent morocco manu-
facturer of this city says that there is
no reason why the leather goods made
right here in Wilmington should not do
the Hame thing in that line. Tho
| London trade journals recognize this
state Of affairs, and while trying to
minimize the facts, openly acknowledge
and deplore the inroads of American
manufacturers on domestic products.
Il
Therefore our manufacturing friend is
| OF tho opinion that the ever present
commercial struggle between this coun-
try and England has received an i'm
| pctus in our favor, due 10 our attitude
on the Venezuelan question, which
will do more TO foster American foreign
trade than anything that has happened
since England did 80 much TO destroy
j by building, equipping and manning
Confederate cruisers, and M matter
how this affair is finally adjusted, Eng
land cannot wrest from us the advan-
tage we have already gained.
This is one of the victories of peace,

to fight for, instead of tho horrid vic

We congratulate our Sunday contem.

OPIUM EX AUSTRALIA.
Harness" Containing Sixty-Three
Tins Landed by Two Women.

a man named Bonani, supposed
70 be a Greek, met two female
friends on the arrival of the Aus
tralia last night and escorted them
to his room in Fowler's Yard.
AS they passed out the gate OF
the Oceanic dock Special Cordes
noticed the women had anxious
but rather pleased expressions OF
countenances. They interested
him and he followed in their wake
imagining at times that he heard a
peculiar dull sound coming from
somewhere in close proximity to
him. The women walked, too,
with a sort of impediment which
attracted his attention.
He followed them and located
them IN the room of BOnani. He
reported the circumstance to Cap
tain Scott, who Immediately Sc
cured search warrant, and
Special Cordes made a call on
Bonani. He had retired, but was
told to sit up while a search was
made.
Under the bed the officers found
two pairs of drawers, evidently
made for women. Each leg was
divided up into pockets the width
of tin of dope. Strings were
there to tie around the
waist, and over the shout
ders, very much on the prin-
ciple of mems suspenders.
The pockets in each pair OF these
improvised boomers contained tins
of opium. Bonani made the con-
ventionaI excuses that he knew
nothing of the matter. The exact
rake of" in this case was sixty
three tins. The women evidently
got out of the way as soon as they
discharged their cargoes as they
were not in the room when
the raid was made Bonani was
taken to the station house and, on
searching him, $50 were found in
his pocket.
The supposition is that the
women wore the boomers when
they left the steamer, their skirts
covering the bundles safely.

IN THE BEGINNING

Of the new year, when the winter sea-
son of close confinement is only half
gone, many find that their health be-
gins to break down, that the least ex-
posture threatens sickness. 1t is then
as we'll as at all other times, and with
people even in good health, that the
following facts should be remembered
namely; That Hoods Sarsaparilla
leads everything in the way of medi-
cines; that it accomplishes the great
est cures in the world, and requires the
largest building in the world devoted
exclusively to the preparation of the
proprietary medicine. Does not this
conclusively prove, if you are sick, that
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the medicine for
you to take?
