Case in the Police Court for
Their Suppression.
Joseph a Goldstone, a fruit peddler,
who sells from a wagon on Montgomery
street, between Clay and Washington, ap-
peared in Judge Lows court yesterday to
answer a charge of obstructing the street.
Goldstone's attorney moved for a dis
n issal of the case on the ground that the
ordinance under which the com mplaint was
made was unconstitutional. Judge Low,
after listening TO the arguments reserved
his decision.
The arrest of Goldstone was caused by
L. Z. Mcclellan, secre tary OF the Retail
Grocers' Protective Association, with the
intention of putting stop to the compe-
titiOn of peddlers. The retail grocers
comp ain that an in u tIce is done them
by the municipal authorities bv granting
permits 10 peddlers, who are thereby en-
abled to compete with dealers who pay
taxes, rent and ell other expenses incident
to the regular retail business.
Peddlers' permits are, as a rule, issued
for the purpose Of affording aid to the in
oiEent, but the position assumed by the
retail dealers is that as they have their
money invested purely sentimental con-
siderations should not influence the au.
thorities to- lure them in their business.
1t is the intention OF the retail dealers TO
make this test case, and should the SUI
preme Court sustain then a general cru
sade against peddlers will be inaugurated.

AN English view of tho Hawiiian
question Is represented by the sub.
Joined paragraph quoted by the Chi

Japan has already valid grievance
against Hawaii by reason of the refusal
OF the tlibusler government at Homo
lulu to permit tho landing of two ship
loads OF japanese emigrants, and she
knows further that II the Islands be-
come United States territory tho Japan
csc settlers and laborers will be treated
as the Chinese are on the Pacific coast.
Suppose, then, that Japan simply insists
on the admission OF these emigrants,
and In case of forcible resistance land 3
an armed force of blue Jackets from the
two Japanese cruisers now In Hawaiian
waters. These temporary occupations
for the protection Of life and property
have a habit OF becoming. permanent,
and what would the United States
farn the fail
compli9 The japanese navy is at
this moment stronger in the Pacific than
that of the United States, and although
America could in the long run and with
or without the help of Russia drive out
tho Japanese and capture the islands,
the victory would BIO dear at the price.
Tho sugar ring would be triumphant, but
America would have abandoned the inn
pregnabe position guaranteed her by
The wisdom OF Washington and Monroe,
and would have definitely embarked in
career of foreign conquest, involving
the formation OF II great navy. In the
present temper OF Washington politics q
great navy would be as serious a menace
to the ponce OF the world as was the gre al
army in the hands Of Napoleon century
ago, and the Pacific would become an
other Mediterranean, with It's desperate
struggle for the mastery Of the sea, in
which England, Germany, France, Rus

and Spain, would all DO interested. Itis

Republic.
There Ia not much wisdom displayed
In the iea- that the unOin OF Hawaii

or that n United States navy would DO

contrary, there would be no hstter

ENDING THE CUBAN STRUGGLE,

There is in the dispatches another
promise OF an early ending of the
Cuban war. The only thing that
makes 1t worthy OF attention ia the
essential point that 1t oomes from
Weyler's opponent. Heretofore Wey-
Ter has made no end OF predictions
that he was going to finish the busi-
ness, which yet remains unfinished.
General Gomez has said the war shall
go on, and on 1t has gone. The
Cuban chief kept his word In
that regard, and now 1t remainB
to be seen whether he viii be able to
maintain his clear record In his new
policy. He proposes to ssttle the
struggle by aggressive movements
right IN the neighborhood of Havana.
II he can maintain himself with any
degree OF success iu hnrassing the
Bpaniards and giving them n touch OF
real warfare with an aggressive foe,
he will DO more than anything
that has occurred for long
time to secure Cuban indepen dence.
The waiting policy seems to have
been pursued about long enough. II
General Gomez can show that he has
backing enough to put up good fight
for the seli-governmsnt of the islands,
lie should do 1t aoon; and being sue
cetsini in making Il fairly good dis
play In that direction, the aid re-
quired for him to win will not be long
in coming. II no osunot make such
ohowing he ought 10 ston tho war by
laying down his arms. Win or sub.
NIT In reasonably short order ought
now to he the cefinite policy OF the
Cuban Tevolutionisls.
