"Disorderly Conduct" on the Border

II no other way can be found to put a
stop to the borderline gambling establish
ment recently set up. why might not prose-
cutions succeed against its patrons under
the charge Of ''disorderly conduct" That
elastic term has suff1ced in the past to cover
a multitude of sins. 1t has been accepted
by the Police Court as correctly describing
the punishable offense of a mother who re-
buked a man for striking her child. 1t has
afforded ground for filming group of young
men who tossed coin to determine which
should pay for the cigars.-The latter case
is especially suggestive in the present con-
nection. A man who, despite the laws OF the
District, advances to the edge of its soil in
order to thrust his stake across the boun-
dairy to a bet taker in Maryland is clearly
as "disorderly" as were the coin-tossers.
And in Maryland there should be little diff
Guilty in constituting the establishment where
the odds are posted and the money received
as nuisance, punishable and removable
under the state statutes and the county
regulations. II all other means falkland
there should be no failure to apply the laws
directly in both jurisdictions-this method
of making the pool room game too costly
for both proprietor and patron would be not
only justihable but necessary.

The Philadelphia Press calls attention tn
the fact that serious difference of onin-

OF St Louis as political convention city

fractions of the exposition. Incidentally

tional convention is greater than the profit.

A Letter From Mr.. Croker.

This is given as from letter written by
Richard Croker to friend in this country:
Next time any idiot tries to mix me up
in the campaign by saying he had an
interview with me in England and heard
me mention names. please do me the favor
to tell the first newspaper man you meet
that the informant is liar from Liarville,
and damphool into the bargain"
Maybe now the gossips will call off. If
he desires it, why not give him a brief
rest? 1t will only be a brief rest Mr..
Croker, we may be sure, is not "out of
it, for good. Next year will bring its
temptations, and then swift ship is likely
to land Mr.. Croker in New York again.
The paddock. the dairy, the pggery, the
kennels, all the rural charms of Vantage
combined, will not be able to keep the
boss in England with SO much doing in
this country.

Southern Tribute to Mr.. Cleveland.

The Star the other day declared that Mr.
Bryan's characterization Of Mr.. Cleveland
as bunco steerer sounded mild when the
epithets were recalled which were showered
upon him here by prominent democrats
during the fight for the repeal of the pur-
chasing clause of the Sherman act. This
from a recent editorial in the New Orleans
Times-Democrat. a leading southern news
paper and silver advocate, carries one back
to those stirring days:
But the merits of the financial question
are not involved in the question of Mr..
Cleveland's vaunted honesty. The asser-
ton that he is honest in thought or action
is absolutely disproved by his acceptance
OF the nomination on the democratic plat
form of 1892 and his subsequent four years
of treachery and betrayal of the cardinal
tenet of that platform. If 1t was his inten-
ton to betray his trust when he accepted
the party nomination on that platform.
does his reputation for honesty rest! If he
accepted the nomination in good faith and
permitted his judgment later to be warped
by self-interest, what becomes Of his boosted
backbone?"
The charge of "treachery and betrayal
against Mr.. Cleveland on the silver ques-
ton is as severe as the charge of "perf1dy
and dishonor' which he brought against
Mr.. German and his friends on the tariff
question. And yet this southern journal
but repeats now what was both current and
popular In democratic congressional circles
in the summer and fall of 1893. The fact
is that never since Judas Iscariot has
served the purposes of opprobrious COM
par1son has his name been used so fire.
quently or with such zest as it was by
democrats of national reputation. many of
them southern men. striving at that time
tn fp oh of fbojr of
rage at Mr.. Clevelands conduct The topic
was all absorbing, and there were some
phrasemakers that handled it with full
command of the American gift of denuncia-
ton
And yet when these men voted to put Mr..
Cleveland back in the White House they
must have known that he would have to
surrender either his convictions or his cour-
age on the silver question. They knew
what his convictions were, for he had re-
peatedly announced them. They evidently
counted on lack Of courage. Their idea
seems to have been that in order to keep
faith with them he would break faith with
his northern. his sound money supporters.
He took the other course. He stood by his
convictions and by the men who had put
up for him at the Chicago convention
Mr.. Cleveland's second term in Office was
bound to be disastrous to his party and to
the country. He was not in touch with his
party on the silver question. and his party
was wrong on both of the leading national
issues. There were just enough sound
money democrats in Congress to defeat
with republican aid the free silver men, and
just enough protection democrats to defeat
the free traders. Mr.. Bryan was over
emphatic. but not out of line with the
truth 1t was bunco game

Watch the Labor Camps.

1t is desirable that the closest watch be
kept over all the groups of workmen who
have been assembled here for the large
enterprises now under way. The union
station work, that for the filtration beds
and other outdoor projects all demand the
services of Italian and negro laborers and
the accommodations provided for these
men are likely to be of the cheapest char
acter. Judging from the complaints of
citizens recently filed. there Is ground for
fearing that the sanitary arrangements at
these camps are conspicuous by their abb
SERGE or at the best for their inadequacy.
For the sake of the health Of the men
thus corrailed alone 1t is necessary that
the regulations should be enforced strictly.
But there is more at stake. The public
health may be endangered IL any laxity il
shown in the official control over such

Our Demands on Turkey.

The report that Vice Consul Magelssen
was not killed after all by the Turks in
Beirut simplifies the case between the
United States and Turkey somewhat, but
does not lessen the obligation OF this gov
eminent to demand the fullest reparation
from the sultan for the outrage of the at
tempt upon his life. The affair clearly indi-
Gates that the administration at Beirut is
intolerably ineffective. The lives of foreign
residents are not safe. Other consular Of
ficers there stationed have complained, 1t
now appears. Of the dangers to which they
are exposed In consequence Of the riotous
disposition of the Moslem populace. The
United States, of course. will not have to do
with their cases. 1t will, however, have
the stronger grounds for complaint against
the porte for these evidences Of Its Inabil-
ity or indisposition to maintain order in a
port so largely settled by citizens of other
countries.
The sultans apologies for the Magelssen
affair. which may be assumed as i:nme-
diately forthcoming as soon as the facts
are made plain, will not wholly suffice to
clear the situation There must be guar
antees that similar occurrences will not
again provoke a disturbance of the rela-
lions between the two governments. The
Turk may not be able to give such guaran-
tees. but 1t will not do to assume his lin.i-
tations in this respect. The United States
may not be in a position to force Europe to
do its duty with regard to Turkey. By its
prompt action, Immediately exercising its
prerogative in the defense of its citi-
zens and putting its course upon the
highest possible grounds, 1t can and doubt
less Will set an example of how one mower

There used to be an idea that a city was

town that needs special advertisement of
this sort nowadays. The lively. prosper

its advantages far more surely than
through the dust and noise of a big po-
litical gathering. Politicians. too. are wan
ing from their old belief that a conven-
ton stirred the enthusiasm of the voters.
The holder of a ballot who cannot be
aroused to the point of partisan activity
after four months of lively campaigning is
not likely to be enthused by the din of the
opening skirmish. So 1t Is doubtful wheth-
er, when all is said. the game is really
worth the candle.
The time may come when invitations.

written on bank notes. will no longer food

the case may be taken by the leaders and
the conventions brought down to a COM
nonsense basis. Washington is the ideal
neutral ground for the rival meetings. 1t

1t knows how to handle a big crowd. 1t
is the scene of frequent gatherings in
enormous numbers and it's accommodations
are not easily demorahzed by sudden
rush. Neither party will score political adj
vantage by meeting here and the old boyle
of administration influence has been eff
fectually destroyed. Washington will never
seek the conventions at the cost of big
bids. as on the present basis. but 1t will
calmly and confidently await the day Of
awakening to the truth that here will the
delegates find their best field for consulta-
ton and action.
