TWO GOOD MEASURES.

The new ordinance regulating the sale

evening, as suggested by the Mayor,

NOUS vote. Mr.. Robinson. the author
OF the measure, proposed the adoption

this matter. which have lasted for many

slstency, or as some look upon II with
tmmovable "frmness." l. e. stubborn

sssary to set foot on, and for that rea-
son Il would be, just as well 10 Try
some means of settling the dispute
without landing troops
II Is by this time quite evident that
neither of the interested governments

danes. as 10 the true status Of the AFFAIRS
that brought about the present con-
aict. Comments. one way or another.
are therefore in the nature OF guess
work. And some of the reports pub
-.
lished are contradictory. In London
II is alleged that for years Venezuela
has ignored the representations made
and refused to make any promises
looking toward settlement. In Car
acas. on the other hand II Is claimed
that no definite demands have been
made upon the government. and that
II they he'd been made, they could not
have been attended to at this time,
when the country Is just emerging from
q civil war.
There Is at present nothing to do but
to ewait Developments The European
powers are at perfect liberty to collect
what Is coming TO them from venezue-
Ia, as long as they do not appropriate
territory
The latest adylces state that Presi-
dent Castro has proposed, through the
United States minister to try TO ar
rive At peaceful settlement. Great
Britain and Germany should consider
whatever the proposition may be, care
fully. For Venezuela has evidently
not collapsed at the show Of force as
was expected. and as the Sultan of
Turkey Is in the habit OF doing our
government should second strongly the
efforts Tor peaceful settlement, for II
any power on earth can stralghten out
the Venezuelan tangle, 1t Is the United
States. II is to be hoped that further
war measures may be avoided, and
that peace may come.

DIR. LOREN u.

The visit OF DR.. Lorenz to this coun-
try has not been one of recreation and
rest entirely. The eminent physician
has performed number OF operations
and everywhere given free clinics, thus
impartlpg to others the knowledge he
has gained by study and experience.
There Is no doubt that good viii result
from his visit Once In while doc
tor has grumbled because the profess
sor made no secret of his accomplish
ment, hut as rule the doctors have
received him well.
DR. V. r. Glbney. in the Review of
Reviews gives the following explain
alton OF Dr. Lorenz and his work.
Or Adolph Lorenz Is one OF the sew.
era orthopedlc surgeons who have
made relentless war on all kinds OF de-
formities and diseases which cripple a
child. What many surgeons In the large
cities Of this country. as well as In
England, have been working at for
many years, under all sorts Of dis
coufagcments, DR.. Lorenz has the repu-
Iatl1n OF working out with greater sue
cess. Long before he announced his
conversion TO the non-bloody method Of
reducing congenital dislocation OF the
nip, he was one Of the foremost ex-
ponenis Of the bloody method and the
statistics furnished by Lorenz Of Wen
na and Hnffa 81 Wurzburg had startled
the scientific world. II may interest
the readers Of this magazine TO learn
that after thii profession had learned
to accept his results by the bloody
methods as extraordinarily good, clos.

come to recognize him as the greatest

position, II naturally follows that
great effort Is made to retain the bone
sufficiently long for the formation Of a

A PANAMA CANAL HITCH.

The New York Herald Is Of the opIn-
ion that II we buy the Panama Canal
companys assets. We buy a lawsuit.
This conclusion Is based on what is
said 70 be the arguments OF Colombian
LAWYERS.
According 10 this argument the Co.
lonblah constitution limits the authori-
~ Of the government in time Of war
10 the transaction o. such public busi-
ness as may be indispensable for the
safeguarding of the Colombian republic.
The prolongation Of the French COM
panys concession they claim. cannot
be regarded as coming under this head.
and, having been granted IN time Of
c.yil war It Is ipao facto null and void.
The Herald admits that the point
may not be well taken. but II 1t were
raised. II would inyolve a lawsuit. OF

icc,lon OF The rights guaranteed.
The Herald further argues, that Il is
Idle TO negotiate with Colombia, be-
cause that country cannot sell a strip
n her territory. and the United States
cannot construct the canal through for
eign territory.
There may be some force in the rea.
