The rule OF the Washington Traction
management to give no transfer to pas
senger who has already rendered a transfer
should be clearly explained to the travelling
public of Washington. 1t cannot be literal
ly enforced without violating the principle
which was announced soon after the con-
solidation OF the various roads under this
one ownership. that passenger would be
given a continuous ride for one fare over
connecting lines in the system, provided, of
course, they did not seek to make round
trips by this means. There are certain
combinations which permit this round-trip
scheme, and as long the double transfer
prohibition is confined to the prevention Of
this trick we'll and good For instance, it
Is unfair to the company to expect the eX-
tension of transfer privileges which will
enable a resident of Capitol Hill to ride
down town ON the Metropolitan line get a
transfer to G street at 18th, proceed to
transact business in that vicinity, and then
take the G street car eastward for home,
all on the payment of one fare. In the
same way a resident of Northeast Wash
ington might ride down on the Columbia
line, transfer at 9th, get a transfer at F,
do some shopping in that neighborhood,
take the F street car within the time limit,

From the staunton ,va.) News.

From the Stanton tFa) News.
The Senate of the United States ratified
the treaty with Spain by which, in the
eyes OF the civilized world, the Philippines
became much a part of the territory of
the United States as Virginia, New York,
Louisiana, California or Alaska Call them
rebels, insurgents, rioters or whatever you
please, but the inhabitants of those islands
are resisting the authority of the United
States. and 1t is the sworn constitutional
duty of the President of the United States
to bring those people under subsection to
the laws and constituted authorities as
much it would be his duty to put
down an attack on the United States mails
or the United States courts or a state.
To that end he must employ If necessary
the army and navy of the United States.
He would be neglecting his duty and would
subject himself to Impeachment if he did
otherwise. The President Is not a fit sub
ject of criticism for waging war, and Wig
orous one. on the Fflipinos. His manner of
doing it may be objectionable, but not the
war itself. Moreover, Congress provided for
an army for this very purpose, so that, II
he needed it, the President has the sanction
of the representatives of the people.

The raport that Aguinaldp is again send
ing envoys t. Manila attracts little atten-
ton. II any confidence in the man existed
this would be a very important matter
Flu; no such confidence does exist He Is
r;tied even by those who sympathize with
him as a shrewd schemer and trickster
who may be expected TO play his hand
skilfuIly at all times The generally ac-
copied idea is therefore that this is merely
a shifjy mancuver of some kind designed
to accomplish something very different
from what is indicated on its face.
If Aguinaldo were an open foe who had
taken the field in circumstances in the
slightest degree excusing such act now
would be an excellent time for him to seek
peaca. He knows of the superior power of
the United States, and that preparations
are quite complete TO exercise it to the full
rs soon as the rain stops falling in the
Philippines. To invite humiliation is
neither courageous nor patriotic. To offer
up his soldiers sacrifices in a hopeless
cause. when by a parley for honorable
terms such terms might be secured, entities
him to nobody's respect.
But Aguinaldo is no such foe. He has no
case. He is depending entirely on his
American admirers give him standing.
For this reason ii is not believed that he
has sincere thought of peace at this time.
He is waiting TO hear the results of our fall
elections. He has been led 10 believe that
his American friends have assurances of
success. that the tide is turning in their
favor; that if they win he will win: and 50
forth.
The fall elections, therefore. are a most
material factor in the Luzon campaign. If
they result in the Administrations favor

Watching San Domingo.

1t is indicated by news publication to-
day that this government is closely watch
ing the situation in San Domingo in order
to be prepared should events reveal the
need of American Intervention for the sake
of peace and order. 1t is well that the case
should be carefully studied in advance, not
in the expectation of interposition, but to
make ready for any contingency which
might arise. This country has its hands
full of foreign responsibilities at present
and will hesitate to add to them. 1t is I'M
necessary. however, for the United States
to act as though San Domingo were
beyond the range of possible Ameri-
can sovereignty The small republic
has already been offered to the larger one
and rejected. Events of recent date have
suggested that a second offer would stand
better show of acceptance. There is a
strong American annexation sentiment In
the island. The death of Heureaux has
removed the strongest figure from the po-
litical scene and rendered the chances of
stable government in the future somewhat
doubtful There Is no other power than
the United States competent or entitled to
safeguard the interests of the people In
case the factions released into activity by
the death of the dictator should get to
QuafreilnS ana lighting anu CIiioIIC All
archy should result The experience of
Haiti and of San Domingo itself prior to
the rule of Heureaux clearly suggests the
possibility of a continuing state of dis
order 1t is to be hoped that the occasion
for American intervention to secure peace
will not arise, but that General Jiminez or
some other leader will be able to estab-
lish a rational administration, relying upon
votes instead of troops for maintenance.
Indeed the fact that the United States is
studying the case to prepare for an emer-
gency should it arise ought to increase the
chances for stability, for ambitious fac
tional leaders not as likely to engage
in revolutionary tactics If they are con-
fronted with the possibility of American
intervention.

Republican Opposition to Expansion

II is often asserted that there is serious
opposition in the Presidents own party TO
his foreign policy, and as proof of the as
sertion a list of distinguished men is quot
cd. But distinguished men make serious
opposition only when they represent con-
stituencies which support them in their
views How stands the case when the list
given is tried by this test?
Thomas B. Reed and Senator Hale are
opposed to the Presidents policy, but the
republicans of Maine are not. They have
declared themselves on several occasions
as supporters of the President. They in
dcrsed him at the time they reelected Mr..
Hale to the Senate. again when they in
NiIed MIN to visit the state as the state 5
guest. and again when they complmented
Senator Frye upon his return from Paris.
The republicans of Maine are all right.
Senator Hcar and Mr.. Boutwell, do not
voice Massachusetts sentiment in their full
limitations against expansion. The repub-
leans of that state on that subject are
represented by Senator Lodge. Their posi-
tcn is by TO means doubtful. and they will
emphasize IL in their platform and nom-
nations this fail
The republicans of Illinois are not with
Senator Mason but with Senator Cullom in
the matter of the countrys new duties.
and Senator Cullom supports the Presi-
dent So does the republican press of the
state, including the great dailies of Chi
cago. In no other state is the policy of ex-
ransion more cordially indorsed.
Ex-senator Edmunds is no longer a resi-
dent OF Vermont but of Pennsylvania. But
whether considered as a Nermonter OF q
Pennsylvania he expresses views abou;
expansion which are by no means repre-
sentative Vermont and Pennsylvania are
both with the President. and the republI-
cans Of the latter state in convention have

sire for his denomination
Messrs. Reed, Hale, Hoar, Boutwell,, Ma

and DISTINGUISHED men. yet represent but
half dozen votes against their party $

may be very serious, but certainly not IL,

A Sign of the Times.


The tendencies of modern progress are
rather strikingly shown in the case of the
practical students of American municipal
Improvement now in convention in this
city. Cooperation organization, combina-
ton, mutual effort have become the most
prominent signs of the times in all branches
of social life, and a League of American
Municipalities is therefore characteristic OF
the age in which We live. 1t promises well
for that very reason.
Chiefly, however, the league Is to be con-
graduated for the motive that called it
into existence. In no one thing does Amer
lean civilization more desperately need the
aid of the devoted and intelligent men than
in the work of reforming municipal govern
ment. 1t is encouraging to that the
members of municipal governments them
selves feel this demand and organize in re.
Spouse to it.
They cannot reform city politics. An
awakened public must do that But they
can, and do. give evidence that the need OF
reform is being more widely and empha IT,
cally demanded every year.

Warren, May 16.-The engine COM
