A Word That Comes Too Late.

There is the right ring to these reso.
lutions reported on Wednesday from
the senate committee on foreign affairs
by Senator Cullom:
Resolved, BY the senate of the United
States, the house of representatives con-
curing. that 1t Is an imperative duty
in the interests Of humanity to express
the earnest hope that the European con-
cert brought about by the treaty of Berlin
may speedily be given its just effects
in such decisive measures as shall stay
the hand of fanaticism and lawless vio-
lence and as shall secure to the unoffend-
ing Christians of the Turkish empire all
the rights belonging to them both MS
men and as Christians and as benetici-
aries of the explicit propositions of the
treaty above cited.
Resolved. That the president be re-
quested to communicate these resou-
tions to the governments of Great Britain.
Germany, Austria. France, Italy and Rus.
sia.
Resolved. Further. that the Senate CT
the United States, the house of representa-
tives concurring, will support the presi-
dent In the most vigorous action he may
take for the protection and security OF
American citizens In Turkey, and to OBJ
tain redress for injuries committed and
the persons or property of such citizens.
Words to this effect should have been
accorded official utterance months ago.
Had this been done, 1t is possible that
human lives to the number of many
hundreds would have been saved. The
government of the United States could
then have prepared, in the event of its

Stand Up to the Rack.

We do not share the timidity Of those
gentlemen who fear that If the United
States government plainly asserts the
fun measure of its rights on this con-
tinent the consequences will be un-
pleasant. We do not expect that Eng
land would make the mistake of fol-
lowing the passage of the Davis reso-
luton with the bombardment of our
coast cities and another burning of our
capital. If the principle embodied in
the Davis resolution Is the right prin-
ciple. if it is within the province of this
nation to protect its interests where
ever they are threatened. then we can
see no sufficient reason for hesitating
to make frank and manly enunciation
Of 1t.
1t is said that such course would ex-
cite animosity in Great Britain. That
may be true; but there is an offset in
the circumstance that 1t would also
excite pleasure in the United States.
1t Is argued that it would complicate
matters and hurt our financial credit.
This, If true, can have no other mean
ing than that we have ceased to be an
Independent power and are under
mortgage to Europe. But it is not true.
a country with the unbounded natural
and developed resources of the United
States may certainly. without egotism.
make bold to do as it pleases within the
limits of morality, without first asking
foreign consent.
The disposition in certain quarters
to emasculate and to qualify every ef-
fort which the robust Americanism OF
the plain people makes to find official
expression Is anything but creditable.
1t savors of both cowardice and pol
troonery. Nor Is there less occasion for
thets, frighten another class of citizens
any-price contingent can. by clubbing
true Americanism by Opprobrious cpl
thets frighten another class of citizens
out of their real opinions and stam-
pede them to an attempted reputation
of the vital essence Of the Monroe doc
trine. If it be 'jingoism" to stand
squarely up to the chalk-mark in de-
votion to American principles if need

finitely rather be the worst abused

the favor Of the Ango-maniacs and
the political dudes.

Restore Reciprocity.

A revival of interest in the subject of
reciprocal trade relations with the
South American republics is sure to fol-
low the effective presentation Of the
need OF such relations made before the
first annual convention of the National
Association of Manufacturers of Amer
lea in Chicago. 1t was reported several
days ago that prominent Republicans
in congress were drafting a measure
to recover. so far as possible, the
ground lost in this direction when the
Wilson tariff bill summarily undid the
reciprocity treaties signed during the
Harrison administrations: and with the
manufacturers Of the country actively
supporting such proposition its
chances Of success ought to be excel
lent.
That the time is opportune for a
movement looking to revival of reci-
procity must be apparent to the most
casual observer. With the possible ex-
ceptions Of Chile, which revengefully
remembers the Valparaiso incident, and
Cuba, which is in the throes of revo-
luton, there Is no country to the south
Of us which does not, in consequence Of
our reasserted stand for the Monroe
dotrine, feel particularly friendly to
the United States: and it would take
little real diplomacy to turn this spirit
of amity to practical account in the
negotiation of new trade treaties. To
be sure, we should have to explain
away the brusQueness of the last con-
gress in cancelling the Blaine compacts
at the very moment when they were
beginning to produce satisfactory mu-
tual results. We should have to in
form our South American friends, in
the politest way possible, that that cam
collation. was the crude work of lot
Of since-repudiated bunglers, who, at
the same time that they did this vio-
'lence to Latin.American interests.
brought down upon their own country
the severest. infiiction in the way of a
business panic known in the Republics
history.
1t might be little humlliating to our
national pride to have to enter at any
length into these unhappy details. II

so, that could be accepted philosophic-
Democratic supremacy. The restora-
ton of treaties assuring to American
manufacturers a hopeful chance of
competing with their European COM
petitors for the trade of the smaller
American republics at no sacrifice of
the original principle of protection to
home industries would unauestionably
be worth this sacrifice of temporary
dignity. II the restoration be not ef-

protest falling upon deaf ears. to go to
the rescue of the Armenian Christians
independently, and no power of Europe
would have had the immoral hardihood
to say 1t nay. As 1t Is. the belated ut
terance may or may not produce good
results, accordingly as the signatory
powers are disposed to assume or TO
shirk their responsibilities.
AS a matter of repulsive but evident
fact, the chances are that Turkish bru-
tally will have an unhiadered way,
and that Christianity in Asia Minor
will be. for the moment. doomed to in
conceivable new prosecutions.

Report of the Bill of the Senate
Committee.

Washington, April Ex-senator Hill,
from the committee on judiciary, today
submitted report upon the bill relating
TO contempt In United States courts, pre-
senting a new bill as a result of the com
mittee's deliberations The bill defines di-
rect contempt to be those committed dur
ing sittings of the court or judge in cham
bers in its or his presence; all other con-
tempts are indirect. 1t provides for i'm
mediate and summary punishment of di-
rect contempt without written accusation.
Interest centers in the provision for pun
ishment of contempt OF court committed
not In the courts presence, as in the Debs
case The provision upon this point fol-
lows:
THAT upon the return of an officer or
process or affidavit duly filed showing u
person guilty of indirect contempt, a writ
attachment or other lawful process may
issue, and such person will be arrested
and brought before the court. and there
upon written accusation setting forth
succinctly and clearly the facts alleged to
constitute such contempt shall be filed
and the accused required TO answer the
same by an order fixing the time and place
of hearings, and the court may on the
proper showing extend the time so as to
give the accused reasonable opportunity to
purge himself of such contempt. After the
answer, or in case of refusal 10 answer,
the court may proceed to hear the accu-
sation upon such testimony may be
produced. If the accused answer the
trial shall proceed upon testimony produc-
ed as in criminal cases and be confronted
with witnesses against him, but such
trial shall be by the court or in its discre-
ton upon application by accused. trial
by jury may be had as in any criminal
case. If found guilty, judgment may be
entered accordingly prescribing the pun
ishment."
The bill allows an appeal to the SUI
preme court.
