officers Scrap.

Two OF Marshal Browns best men
are occupying cells in the Police
Station, while their "boss" is chew
ing his handsome moustache and
wondering what to do with his "ban-
tams."
There has been little unpleasant
ness between Captain Toma, the
Japanese officer and Nigel Jackson,
the energetic officer of the bicycle
brigade.
1t seems that Jackson saw Toma
in saloon few nights ago, dressed
in his uniform. The Marshal has
forbidden his officers to enter
saloons for the purpose Of imbibing
while in uniform, and all officers are
instructed to report anyone violat-
ing this very proper regulation.
Jackson did his duty and Toma
got mad and was going to do Nigel
up on the first opportunity.
This morning the officers met at
a store not far away from Head
quarters, and Toma started in to
wipe the floor and surrounding
premises with his colleague. HE
ran up to something unexpected,
however, having forgotten that
Nigel has had some little experience
with his "props," since last "we
met" and his rash enterprise will
kesp his eyes in mourning for some
days to come.
The Marshal fully exonerates Mr.
Jackson who simply acted in self.
defence, and he is preparing a nice
address for Toma, the blue color oil
which would take the breath away
even from the most rabid OF oui
legislators, leave alone the Japanese
officer,
The Marshal fully recognizes the
ability and usefulness OF the two
scrapping officers, but he realizes
that stores or streets are not the
proper forum for their settling Of
difficulties. There is a big YARD
makai of the Station House at theil
command.

THE AUDIT ACT.
A Ministerial Explanation by the
Premier.

Premier.
This morning the Senate had APP
preparation Acts under discussion,
and among other items considered
was one for S2400 for travelling ex-
penses in connection with the Audi
tor Generals office. This item the
Finance Committee had recon-
mended to be temporarily expunged
in order that it might be con sidered
when the Audit Act was taken up,
and eventually the item was laid
over.
Minister Cooper availed himself
Of the discussion to state that the
majority of the Executive did not
favor the introduction OF a new
Audit Act at this session, although
they would probably propose and
support material amendments to
the existing Act. The great diff
Guilty in present conditions was that
while owing to routine the expendi-
lures of the Government we're readi-
ly ascertainable, it was not so easy
to accurately obtain the true amount
Of the receipts Errors and misap-
preparations, unintentional or inten-
tional, crept into the finances OF
every government, and while our
administration suffered less than
was generally supposed others did,
still there was no practical check to
prove that all the money received
by subordinates was recorded or
turned over to the Departments.
For this reason he advocated a suffi-
cieut allowance for travelling ex-
penses to the Auditors Department
to enable unexpected visits to be
paid to all money receiving stations
throughout the country SO that an
official might suddenly and unex-
pected say to the Government re-
cipient of its cash, "Open your safe
and give me your books and let me
SEQ how we stand together"
The Senate on this occasion heed
ed not the words of wisdom of the
Premier and carved out the item.

A BIGGER MAN THAN TOM REED

A special dispatch from Washington
to our esteemed Republican contempo-
rary, the Times outlines the program
to be followed in pushing the Hawaiian
annexation resolution through congress.
At the end comes the following signifi-
cant paragraph:
The administration it is acknowl-
edged, will take an active part in the
fight, and President Mckinley is be-
lieved to be bigger man with the
lower house than the speaker.
While it has been we'll understood that
the annexation of Hawaii is an admin
stration measure, the bold, barefaced
announcement that the authority and in
fluence Of the president is to be actively
exerted on the members of congress is
one of a number of occurrences that
have tended to lower the respect in
which Mr.. Mckinley is held by reason
of his high position. When the presi-
dent of the United States descends to
the level of lobbyist it is time to de-
mand an accounting of his stewardship.
1t is very serious question whether
the president of the United States has
a legal right to take the part of an in

Republicans who are now holding dai-

waiian question were roundly abusing

In view Of the present naughty atti'
tude OF Spain. and the certainty that
lit would be regarded at Madrid as q
hostile act, 1t is tantamount to decla-
ration Of war. Diplomacy would moi
long survive the adoption Of the resolu-
ton by congress that has unanimously
appropriated nifty millions of dollars to
give force and effect to its DEGREES.
1t is in the nature of citation to the
president, also, that he shall now lay
aside any scruples he may have against
taking drastic measures to bring Spain

peril. and proceed to carry out the will

sentation of the attitude Of the United
States, but leaves no room for a diplo-
matte Interpretation of 1t.
It doesn't contemplate protracted
diplomatic correspondence.
Inferentially, at least, in view Of all
the circumstances, 1t accentuates the
impatience of the people of this country
to arrive at an understanding with
Spain, and conveys no suggestion that
any further needless delays will be toll
Grated.
If it be objected to as untimely or
premature, in view Of the promised early
report of the naval board, it should be
noted that the responsibility Of Spain
for the Maine disaster is wholly elm
mated. It assumes that we have ample
grounds for Intervention without refer
ence to that incident. claim that is
conceded by public sentiment at home
and a consensus of intelligent popular
sentiment abroad. And to that extent
it disarms the objections which the ad
ministration has been urging against
hasty action touching the loss Of the
Maine.
There should be shown no disposition
to cut of debate upon a measure 80
full Of portent. and yet vote upon 1t
ought to be reached before the official
report OF the naval board is presented.
That report Is likely to throw some light
upon the cause Of the disaster, but it is
extremely improbable that its findings
as to the responsibility will be conclu-
sive. 1t will not be likely to change the
convictions of the people regarding it
one way or the other.
We can appeal to the world with great
er assurances Of approval If we base our
action upon broad humanitarian grounds
protection to Americans and American
interests. a speedy cession of barbarous
methods of warfare and respect for the
rights Of non-combatants. These rea-
sonable demands denied, let US hail
manifest destiny-peace to devastated
land, independence to a people who have
thrice earned it by their valor.
The herald., 1898-03-19
THE SENATE sdoULD STAND PAT

There Is a well-grounded belief that
the president desires an early adjourn
ment of congress, General Grosvenor's
denial to the contrary Notwithstanding.
We have had few presidents who did
not think they could manage the affairs
Of theIcountry far better without con-
gress. One declared, upon occasion, that
he had mo policy to pursue against the
will of the people," but he didn't really
mean 1t. There is considerable stretch
Of territory between the White House
and the Capitol, and usually that differ
ence between the president and congress.
Only one branch is at this time under
control of the Republicans, and it is far
from being unit on the Cuban ques-
ton, on the currency question, or on
the Hawaiian question. Reed is the
czar that he ever was, and the rules
which the majority have seen fit to in
woke to control legislation are as strin-
gent as they ever were. But even the
rules and the autocratic Interpretation
Of them by the speaker are not suffi-
GENTLY potent to keep the Cuban ques-
ton out of the house at last. Public
sentiment finally commanded recogni-
ton there, and the people have at least
had one inning. Mr.. Reeds will has,
after all. some limitations, and the pre-
cipitation of the Cuban crisis has given
them definition. How willing he may be
to carry out the further wish of the
president for an early adjournment or
how successful he may be in that be-
half should he undertake it, remains to
be seen.
The interests Of the party in the fall
elections will not be overlooked, and it
is generally safe to assume that the
caucus conclusion will govern Mr.. Reed.
But it is different with the senate.
And to that body must the people look
for check to any movement having for
it's object the subordination of patriotic
to partisan plans. If early adjournment
is made party issue, the duty Of the
senate will be plain. BY the vote on the
defense bill all party lines were dssi-
pated. To re-erect them, in the face of
the Cuban crisis, would be unpatriotic.
Congress should not adjourn while the
issue is undecided. The senate should
stand pat.

Mr., BarloW'e Speech

To the Editor of the Los Angeles Herald:
Representative Barlow of this district
made one of the notable speeches in the
house of representatives upon the Teller
resolution, which, coming from the senate,
was defeated in the lower branch Of con-
gress. Mr.. Barlow declared that this Teller
resolution was but the reiteration of what
is already law, duly enacted by the legis-
lative branch of the government and which
it is the duty Of the executive branch to
carry out to the letter. without evasion,
distortion or strained construction.
The very fact that 1t has been found nec-
essary to frame the resolution was decla-
ration that the executive branch of the
government had set at defiance the plain
decree of the body which alone is invested
by the constitution with authority to enact
laws, and that 1t has usurped dangerous
power.
Mr.. Barlow asserted that the act of the
executive department was revolutionary
in it's nature and anarchistic in its tend
ency: that it had the appearance Of a con-
certed plan to plunder the people and fill
the Golfers of a set of designing specu-
lators; that such course Is blow at lib
erty and equality and step in the direc-
IlOH Ol dTlSlOCIdCy dHu Cldoc ldNOllIlSLu, ,
that the elimination would be anarchy and
revolution.
The declared intent of the administra-
ton to pay in gold is. he said, in defiance
of the constitution because the constitution
specifies silver and gold asD the particular
metals of which money must be coined.
No power was conferred upon congress to
declare that either metal should not be
money or that special power on value
should be given to either. If the executive
branch of the government can in this in
stance override the legislative branch and
the constitution, where is its prerogative
to stop? What Of our institutions are safe
from its invasions? What is our safeguard
against autocracy or anarchy?
The monometallic system has no place
among free institutions. 1t is the creature
and associate Of monarchy, Of autocracy
and Imperialism. It is the deadly enemy
of liberty and the destroyer of equality.
1t is a creation to perpetuate the power of
favored class, to hold in subsection the
wealth producing masses. x.
