OF for santo Domingo.

We are not in the least surprised to learn
that General Jiminez, without any at
tempt whatever to conceal his purpose,
has again started from Cienfuegos on his
way to Santo Domingo. He is naturally
much exasperated over his recent arrest.
and declares with great bitterness that it
was as if President Mckinley had been
seized on his way from Canton to Wash
ington TO be inaugurated, after his cleo
ton
We quite agree with General Jiminez
and consider the cases identical. if not
more so. The Dominican patriot was
travelling peacefully to take the chair Of
state in Santo Domingo to which he had
been duly and unanimously elected by
Smith NJ Weed at the Hotel Champlain
conference. 1t was a cold -blooded outrage
and an international affront to collar this
friendly ruler, and the Cienfuegos collec-
tor should be severely disciplined
Jiminez says that his reign will be one
Of peace and closer relations with the
may prove true. If his accession to power
as representative of the Weed syndicate
should result III an American protectorate
over Santo Domingo and Haiti, we would
not feel inclined to ask any invidious ques-
tions. Anything tending to bring that

civilization will be welcome enough. con-
siderably irrespective of the means used.

Mr.. Jacob Gould Schurman is the nom
inai head Of the Philippine Peace Commits
sion controlled by DENLY. He Is home
from Manila with some interesting infor-
nation concerning conditions in Luzop.
In a statement credited to him yester-
das he is represented as saying that the
present Tagal insurrection is but a con-
tinustion Of the revolt against Spanish
rule. which was caused by native resent
ment Of the rapaeity and oppression of the
religious orders.
According TO Mr. Schurman. il he is cor
rectly quoted. the Malay leaders have con-
WINGED the native masses that the Ameri-
can Government has only changed places
with Spain in guaranteeing the hated
friars in their territorial. magisteriaI, and
monoPolistic privileges. This. the Com
missioner says, cannot be denied. as the
Treaty OF Paris gives them the vested
rights they claimed under the former rule.

The French snec,re Rouue

There seems to be but little ground for
hope that existing conditions in France
can result in anything short OF civil war.
We have tried TO take kindlier view, at
one time believing that the Government of
Loubet. Waldeck- Rousseau. and Gallifet
would prove strong enough to suppress
factions and disorder and bring the country
TO its bearings again. But the helpless
incapacity which the authorities have
shown in dealing with Guerin on one side,
and the Anarchists on the other,
has destroyed all such theories. AS far
as one can see. the tocsia for a general
oebacie would sound in any decision of the
court martial at Rennes, no matter
whether il should be favorable TO Drey-
fus or against him.
From current indications that decision is
to be delayed as long as possible. and
there is no reason TO think that delay will
make for justice and decency, bat rather
;hat it has been deliberately devised to
promote the treasonable and revolutionary
designs Of the anti Dreyfasards
The testimony yesterday was all illus
trative CT the headquarters staff plot to
destroy the accused by a common story,
based on the forgeries of the bordereau and
dossier. the genuineness of which the wit
nesses for the prosecution continue TO Ie-
iterate. ignoring all proof OF their falsity.
The evident intent OF this course is plain.
Ii is TO cover over the certainty of Drey-
fus Innocence with a mass Of assertion.
and to make the country forget that the
highest tribunal in the land, the French
High Court Of Justice. long before this
retrial. found that Esterhazy wrote the
bordereau and that Dreyfus could not have
been guilty on the strength OF any evi-
dence adduced at his first court-martial
Reviewing the situation as it was cerel-
oped yesterday. it cannot be said that the
prisoners prospects show any material
improvement II is true that, in the opin-
ion OF all honest people his case is

TO have General Mercier arrested for the
forgery of his alleged note duplicating

made up their minds not to be robbed Of
their prey. Mereier confidently predicts

trial through the outbreak OF a revo-
luton. and, possibly. a massacre of the

The Press and the Public.

(From the Brooklyn Eagie-)
The press is full of faults, but infdelity to
the public is not one of them. Not that news
paper men are better or Drawer brighter than
mlny other men, but because they put
into peculiar relations to public opinion and
continually under public observation. Their pro-
fession is public service. The discharge of their
daily duties is a rendering of such service.
Their power and their happiness in those duties
are proportioned to the vigilance. virtue, vigoF,

public as their only client, their only tri5u-

PENNSYLVANIA REPUBLICANS.
Senator Penrose Settled Upon for
Presiding Officer.

Harrisburg. Pa, Aug. 21-Governor
Stone, Senator Penrose and Attorney Cen
eral Elkin had their heads together this
evening, and arrangements for the Repub-
iiean State Convention Thursday may be
said to be nearly completed AS Senator
Penrose left the hotel tonight with Repre-
sentative Connell. of Scranton, he was asked
whether he would preside over the conyen-
tion, and he replied that the details of the
organization had not been settled. He ad-
mitted. however, that he had been men
toned for chairman. It was suggested that
Senator Quay's name had been discussed in
the same connection, but the junior Senator
said that Quay did not care TO preside. 1t is
as good as settled that Senator Penrose viii
handle the gayel, and it is also intimated
that he will make speech indicating the
lines along which the fight this year will
be made
There is disposition on all sides to make
the convention a short one and the mid
summer heat will help along the purpose
to limit all speeches 10 five minutes At
torney General Elkin, as the retiring State
chairman. will call the convention to order.
Senator Penrose said the Supreme Court
matter was not definitely settled, but add
ed that Brown had the best show. This
was polite way of saying that Judge
Archibald WAS no longer in the running
