The Presidents course far with re-
spert to Cuba invites confidence. Not only
is his interest aroused. but the steps ne mas
taken show that peace for Cuba is his ann
and desire. No other explanation will an
swer. What else would explain his keeping
General Lee at Havana. his sending a spe-
ciai commissioner to the island to examine
and report upon the latest phases OF the
situation and his recommendation of a lib
eraI appropriation to relieve the distress Of
the American residents there?
Let it be observed also how radically his
course in the premises toward Congress
differs from that of his predecessor. As
soon as Mt. Cleveland discovered that Con-
gress sympathized with the insurgents he
arched his back and prepared for fight.
Congress was first ignored. and then defed

them for their official all of the in

Spect for Congress.
1t Is said that the President has plan of
his own for settling the Cuban matter.
Particulars are not given, and maybe at
this time, one mans guess about the plan
Is as good as another's. But that the plan,
whatever it may be, contemplates honor
able peace for Cuba seems to be certain.
Everything points to that. To assume that
after taking the steps he has taken. the
President may decide to stop and let things
DRIFT again. as they have been drifting, is
out of the question The President by sue
ali act would cover himself with worse than
confusion
The President shows no disposition TO
withhold anything from Congress, or to
bully Congress with curt messages. and
congress can afford to show full apprecia-
ton of his friendly consideration. The
great destderatum Is peace for Cuba, which.
as We all know. can only come from the

ace Greeley would say. the public will en-
joy some mighty interesting reading"
Take the present disclosures. A year agt
Secretary Olney wrote to Senior de LONE
calling his attention to the frightful state
Of affairs in Cuba, and pointing out that II
should be stopped. Senior de LONE replied
that it could not be stopped except upon
Spain's terms. Did Mr.. Olney reply tc
this? Apparently not. Nothing has come
to light showing that he did. In the ex.
pressive language of the street, the Boston
man simply made front, and then fell
back
The record IS comical on the American
side. Since the date of Mr.. Olney's letter
the enormities in Cuba have multiplied d
hundred-fold. General Weyler at that time
had hardly got his bloody hand in Since
then the herding and starving of defence

been widely applied. the helpless in tie hos

seems to have let him out of the RESPONSE

A Minister'S Soft Snap.

Senior de Lome's success as a diplomat at
this capital has been the subject of com
ment In several quarters. He undoubtedly
has had success here. With the worst
cause that any civilized man in modern
times has represented, he has managed for
two years to make it go with the best
government ever devised. No other man
has ever succeeded in yoking the United
States up with a butcher like Weyler for
the determination OF human beings. He
has had our district attorneys scratching
their heads for strained arguments on neu-
trality laws. He has kept our marshaIs
and baihffs on the jump running down re-
ports OF his spies He has ordered our fast
cruisers up and down the South Atlantic
coast almost at his pleasure. 1t Is only
fair to hope that he has got his pay
promptly, and not In WeyIerian shinplas-

Depa Waste Paucr

NO enc can wonder at the constant de-
"'S Hu OF the government departments for
mere room in view of the facts set forth
III yesterdays Star regarding the accumu-
iatlcn OF useless records ard documents
IN the storage places of the general post
office. These revelations bear Interestingly
upon the question OF the proposed renova,

Office building" which seems to be steadily
growing too small to accommodate both
the general and the local Offices Irrespec-
tive OF the question of whether or no. in
nreLces are at work to prevent the re-
movai of the city post Office from it's pres
eat quarters. it is important that Congress
should take heed of the enormous ac-
cCmuiations Of waste paper in the offices
ana bureaus. 1t is no exaggeration to estl-
mate that hundreds of tons of such ma
'eridiS are now stored away in space that
might otherwise be used 10 advantage. ma
terials that could safely be destroyed. Such
are the copies of rejected bids submitted in
years past to the postmaster general No
possible use for these documents can he
INA Slned. The bare records themselves
containing all the necessary facts should
suilce fCr every purpose. These papers are
Dht samples OF thousands of others in all
tne departments that could without the
east FISK be consigned TO the flames or
better still. sold in bulk as waste. 1t might
then De found that there could be much

perhaps less menace to their health. At all
events 1t Is an absurd proposition that the
city pest Office should be crowded out of
us proper proportion of space, or entirely
out OF The new building originally designed
particularly for its use. in order to make
room for these tons of worthless papers
IL Would appear to be measure Of strict
economy for the government to create n
con mission to go through the files of all
the offices and set apart those records and
documents that could with safety be de-
stroyed- Others that might possibly have
future value could be set aside for stor-
age in a hail of records when Congress

HOrafiO King.

The death today of Horatio King takes
from the national capital one of its historic
citizens He was one of the few remaining
men who were identified prominently with
the stirring days previous to the war of the
rebellion and the records of the govern
ment are filed with references to his work.
HIS impress was left particularly upon the
postal service of the government with
which he was identified in many capacities,
rising from an humble clerkship to be the
head OF that important department. Ills
connection with this great branch of the
administration of national affairs occurred
at formative period, when IDEAS were Of
especial value. and to his genius and untir-
ing energy was due much of the great
progress that has been since accomplished.
1t Is a coincidence to be noted that his
death occurs during the session here of the
international postal congress. Much of MIR.
Kings best work was done in the line of
developing the foreign postal service so 1t
may be said that ia a measure he was re-
sponsible for the possibility of such sig
nlfcant gathering as that now in session
In this city. Mr.. Kings unda gging enter
prise during the later years of his life en-
abied him to publish. recently as two
years ago, an Interesting and important
work under the title Turning on the
Light in which he set forth much infor-
nation of unusual value regarding the dark
Gays preceding the war. when Washington
was the scene of many stirring events of
which Mr.. King was an observer at close
range. Personal participation in MANY
episodes bearing heavily upon the fate of
the nation enabled him to speak with all
thority. and it was fitting that his remark
able career. so replete with good deeds and
patriotic acts and thoughts, should be prac-
tically closed with such a work
