Revolt Against Wellington.

II is unite time that an end should be put
70 tho nretensions of Senator wellington
that he in any sense represents the repub-
Hcan party of Maryland in his dissraceiui
course lately. His boorish airs ana MS
scurrilous abuse Of everybody in the party
who has failed to obey his dictation nave
caused a revolt against his boss-shlp tnat
is manifestfng itself all over the state Inc
Warner incident in which he used his gut
ter vocabulary In such epithets as IN
famous liar "cI eature, fraud, ETC., Is
but one instance of his vulgar abuse OF MS
opponents.
That the republicans of the state are
determined no longer to stand this inso-
lent dictation Is shown by the proceedings
at the great meeting in Baltimore last
night in behalf of VIM. T. Malster for
mayor: a candidate bitterly opposed by
Wellington. This meeting was attended by
some 7OJ0 people. while the meeting In
favor of Wellington's candidate. Theodore
Marburg. had only an attendance of some
58. At the Master meeting his adherents,
who had been characterized by Wellington
as ''scalawags and ward heelers, used ex-
ceedingly plain language toward the Junior
senator from Maryland. One of the speak
ers. Major A. NJ. Hancock. denounced him
and his methods In the following caustic
terms:
This is the grandest and most extra
ordinary congregation of scalawags and
ward-heelers-men who can be bought for
S2-0 or a small office-that has ever as
sembled in this any other city. Your
presence here is an indignant protest
against the foul epithets that have been ap-
piled to you by one you elevated to the
highest place in your gift. and whose every
action and utterance since you clothed him
in the purple and fine linen of your high
favor most clearly demonstrate that he IS
wholly unit to be your representative III
the United State Senate. and never should
have emerged from the obscurity from
whence he came.
THE great popular heart of Baltimore
has grasped in its tender and loving en-
brace that noblest Roman of them all,
VIM T. Master. and is moving on to an
imperishable victory which will grind into
nothingness that egotistical braggart who
has dared to proclaim that. unless Master
gets out of his way at his bidding. he will
knock him out.
If this Is an evidence of the feeling of
the voters of Baltimore, there can be no
power that can knock Malster out-despite
the impudence of Wellington-save the
power that rules all things"

No Skipping.

In urging return to the Dingley bill
The Star the other day called attention tc
the fact that the revenue-producing ca
pacity of the bill as amended by the Senate
could not very accurately al this time be
determined Now that the Senate is on the
eve of disposing of the bill the importance
of the point Is recognized and emphasized
Experts have been at work trying to solve
the matter but 1t is to be doubted If the
answer prepared in the short time at their
command is entirely safe for use in the
conference
When the Dingley bill reached the Sem
ate 1t was not only a well considered meas
ure. but II carried with 1t a statement
showing the amount of revenue It would
produce. 1t was on every score a bill
worthy of the Senate's acceptance. and had
the Senate promptly taken it up. and pass
ed ii within a month. as 1t might easily
have done. the anticipatory imports would
not materially have affected the calcula-
lions But Mr.. Aldrich got hold of the BILL
and held on 10 1t SO long. cutting and slash

tax and a new sugar schedule. that the
importers had abundant time to stuff their
warehouses to the ceiling. And many of
them have done So with the result of de-
PllEIlS tie government LOT the HrSt year
of some of the revenue the new tariff bill
is expected to raise.
This is matter to which the conference
committee of the two houses will doubtless
give careful attention prominent de-
feet of the present tariff law is its failure
TO yield sufficient revenue. The result has
been bond issues and much accompanying
discomfort. Business has been disturbed
and confidence impaired. The people have
demanded a change, and. of course,
change correcting the existing evil The
new law. therefore. should bring In money
enough to support the government and
support it comfortably. The corners ought
not to be cut too closely. There should be
no skimping. The feeling should be that
the revenU es are ample for the CARRYING

Anything less than this would certainly
be a mistake. and 1t might prove disastrous
For If, after an unhappy experience OF
three ye9rs with one botch of a tariff law
an impression should get out that we are
entering upon a doubtful time with an
other law. thu effect would be felt far and
near.

are welcome at practically all hours.
There are accidents at the beach. Of
course, for 1t is Inevitable that during the
season some boys should go there before
they can take care of themselves in the
water. and try to do things wholly beyond
their powers. But when the great num-
bers of its patrons are considered-espe-
cially on such a day as Wednesday, when
over a thousand went swimming''-the
percentage of casualties is remarkably
small. The parents of small boys should
therefore be careful to impress upon the
young minds the Importance of going to a
place like the public beach, If they must
swim at all. Swimming Is a delightful
luxury in summer. especially to the small
boy. and 1t is practically impossible to
prevent him from indulging in it. Nor
is it wholly desirable. for to large class
the occasional plunge in the river is prac-
rule of cleanliness. The beach Is there
fore to be regarded the safest place
for the boys when their amphibious ten
denotes manifest themselves. The lads
will as a rule realize the advantage of fol-
lowing such advice If few cases Of ac
cidents resulting from wilful disobedence
or recklessness are brought to their at
tentiou. The love of life in the young
human animal is strong enough to be re-
lied upon when tie intelligence is aroused.

Transferring Policemen.

There should be no complaint on the
score that policemen are being transferred
from the posts they have been occupying
to other precincts and duties The few
changes that have recently occurred seem
to have aroused the Indignation of the af
fected officers and their friends, who pro-
claim against the policy of shifting eff
Gent men. 1t is to be remembered that
other cities have encountered serious diff
culties In the management of their police
forces because of the tendency of retain
lnen ON posts and beats several years at
a time. New Yorks recent reforms as die
tated by the disclosures of the Lexow in
inquiry were based on this experience The
policemen there were formerly retained

tected as beloI ging in a measure to them
selves The system of blackmail and extor-
ton uncovered by the Lexow process re-
suited in par! from this fixity of the mems
stations, and partly from the wretched
methods Of management and appointments
in vogue. In city like Washington there
should be little no chance for such a
system to become deeply rooted
1t Is thought that the police force here
Is practically free from such evils. and the
best way to preserve II ia this condition
Is to keep the men moving, to ,lisahusa

The Extraordinary MIR. Wellington

Washington Corr. Philadelphia Press.
Senator Wellington has taken the ex-
traordinary ground that the President must
rot appoint anybody to office from the
state of Maryland without Mr.. yelling
tons approval.
Some time ago. on the recommendation
of the Maryland delegation in Congress,
the President nominated a well-known resi-
dent Of Baltimore for commissioner of i'm
migration at that port. Mr.. Wellington
had been informally consulted, but he had
lot given his formal consent.
When he heard that the nomination had
been made out by the President he sent a
most vigorous protest to the White House
and declared that he had not given his
approval.
AS a result the nomination was with
held, and the notice Of 1t made out for the
newspapers was cut out of the list of other
nominations. day or two later Mr.. Well
ington's dignity having in the meantime
been appeased by formal applicatio for
his approval on the part of the friends of
the nominee. the senator informed the
President the nomination could be made.
1t was then transmitted to the Senate and
confirmed.
That will afford some idea of Mr.. Well
ington's conception of his position as sem
ator from the state of Maryland.

Significant Comment by the Jill.

The news that the Hawaiian annexation
treaty had been negotiated had evidently
not reached Japan when the Jill. news
paper of considerable influence there, pub
lished certain bombastc comments on the
attitude of the island republic in it's resist
ence to the demands of Japan. These COM
ments, which were published in last even
ings issue. indicate clearly the sentiment
prevailing in Japan with regard to Hawaii
1t has frequently been said here by oppo-
hents Of tine annexation policy that the
fear of Asiatic domination which ANNA ted
the Hawaiian government to seek the
protection of the United States was largely
If not wholly imaginary. Indeed 1t has
been claimed that the whole agitation was
fictitious. devised as a bugaboo to scare
this country into annexation. The Star
has repeatedly published facts from the
most trustworthy sources to show that the
fear of Japanese colonization was a serious
factor confronting the Hawaiian govern
ment and that so far from being in any
degree fictitious 1t was well recognized
that Japan's dearest wish was for the ac-
QUESTION of Hawaii upon some terms that
would give Japan the control. The Jijis
references now clinch the case beyond
further doubt. They show that the lingo
istic element in Japan has been clamorous
for brush with Hawaii. Reference is
made by this newspaper to a "chastise
ment" of Hawaii. That means but one
thing-conquest. The phrases used serve
10 warrant even more credence than was
formerly placed in the report circulated at
Honolulu recently that the Japanese repre-
sentatives there planned to land force to
take possession of the custom house. The
prompt action of the Philadelphia's COM
mander resulted in an equally prompt dis
avowal of such an intention but the i'm
preston was strong that but for the swift
suggestion of resistance sent forth by the
American representatives a brisk episode
would have followed, with the practically
certain result that Japan would today have
a larger piece of business on hand than the
mere brow-beating of a defenseless gov
ernmant

4 Great Mistake.

The failure of the republican senators In
caucus last night to deal with the uues-
ton of trusts is Disappointing and II Is
something that they are certain to have to
explain on the stump in this years state
campaigns.
The reason given for non-action-that II
Is too late in the debate to bring forward
an amendment which would lead to pro-
tracted discussion-is simply no reason at
all w no would consume time for the pur-
pose of defeating such an amendment?
The populists and the democrats declare
themselves against trusts. Are there any
republican senators who would challenge
an amendment on the subject prepared by
the Judiciary committee of that body? The
bare suggestion that such an amendment
would lead to a protracted discussion
quickens curiosity. and makes one wish all
the more strongly to see the matter pre-
sented Who would come forward as the
open and confessed champion Of trusts at
q time when those organizations are 80
defiant OF both the law and the proprieties
1t is said that the provision in the Cor
man-Wilson bill bearing upon the subject
will be continued. That assurance Is quite
too tocular for a sedate body like the Sen
ate. Why continue provision which from
the day of It's enactment has been a dead
letter? Why talk about a provision which
was never intended to be anything but a
dead letter? The German Wilson bill was
In large part made by trusts. and not a
line OF II should be formally indorsed by
this Congress. Those parts of the bill
which have been executed have proved 10
be disastrous to the country: the parts
which seemed to have merit in them have
been imperative. Imagine the effective
ness OF continuing a provision against
trusts enacted three years ago, when the
Sugar Trust in that time has grown SO in
