The Maryland Republicans.

The republican party of Maryland has
every reason to congratulate itself ON the
outcome of the primary Reid in Baltimore
yesterday. Several things were decided
very Enthusiastically by the yoters-first, that
Mr. Stevenson Archer Williams will be the
republican candidate for governor, and it
is admitted on all sides that he Is by all
odds the strongest man the republicans
could possibly nominate. With equal GER
tainty the voters of Baltimore have an
nounced that they want nothing to do with
Representatives Mudd and Wachter in the
position of state leaders. The result con-
tinues Senator McComas. as the leader of
the party in the state and assures his re-
turn to the Senate IL the republicans sue
coed in controlling the legislature. This
outcome is gratifying not only to Mary
land. but to the entire country where the
commanding ability of Senator McComas is
thoroughly appreciated The outcome is
also a very striking victory for the local
leadership of Collector William F. Stone.
His management of the campaign has been
brilliant and the Endorsement he has re-
ceived is well deserved.

tress. When the consular reports on the
recommendations camps were published the
attitude Of the Spaniards toward our cid-

officers, that the presence Of q warship was
necessary. The Maine produced an imme-
date effect for good. Indeed. some author

gone so far toward q breach already, with
Spain so obstinate In refusing to grant
practicable autonomy to Cuba, the Names
presence in Havana harbor would have
made for peace, 50 quickly did the tension
lessen after her appearance.
The disaster to the warship was perhaps
an accident, perhaps the work of Cuban
sympathisers. perhaps of Spanish hot-heads-
The official report definitely declared In
favor of an explosion from the outside and
rendered the accident theory untenable-
Whether the electric current which caused
the explosion was closed by Cuban or a
Spaniard. the Maine was destroyed and
many lives were lost No one can say to-

that It was possible she would be sunk. A
government which would finch in the face

the waters Of unrest? The sea fighter Is
most useful which prevents war. of course.
and 1t cannot be disputed that many
conflict has been saved by the prompt APP
pearance Of an efficient naval force on the
scene of possible strife.
1t Is hate ia the day to pirate about the
Maine. Sad though was her fate. heavy

though the consequences fastened by that
disaster. this country should never. save

The Cleveland Boom.

Mr.. A. j. Fleming, veteran republican
editor of Missouri. in an interview yester-
day with representative of The Star, said:
Yes. the rank and file of the Missouri
democracy are loyal to Mr.. Bryan, not.
however. as a presidential candidate, but
they feel that he Is a header in whom they
can safely trust. and he Is very popular In
Missouri. worshiped by possibly IS per
cent Of the Missouri democracy"
How about Mr.. Cleveland?"
MIR. Cleveland has no following in Mis-
souri, to speak of. d. r. Francis and a
few others. not 10 per cent of the Missouri
democracy. would stand for Mr.. Cleveland.
Presidentially speaking. the Missouri de-
mocracy are at sea; but one thing is sure-no
goldbug Of the Cleveland stripe will satisfy
the democratic party of Missouri
If the Missouri situation had been under
stood In the east at the time Of MIR. C1eve-
lands return from ST. Louis last spring
we might have heard less from his admirers
on the subject of another term for him in
the White House. They had detected in his
reception there demand for his return to
leadership which was certain to become
overwhelming The crowds on the streets,
we were told, had cheered him more loudly
than they did the President. He had proved
the real toast of the occasion. There had
never been witnessed before in that quarter
of the country such enthusiasm for a pub
lie man.
II was perfectly plain to Mr.. C1eveland's
friends that he was slated for another
presidential nomination. and they proceeded
to whoop him up. If such feeling existed
for him In Missouri-the state of Bland and
Vest and Cockrell, and which had twice
voted for Mr.. BTyan-what might fairly be
expected elsewhere when the people began
to consider that the Man Of Destiny was
afoot and headed for the White House
again? Why. no power could head him off.
He was bound to win.
ST. Louis was in the show business, the
Cleveland acclaim might not have been
more than a hearty greeting to a distin-
guished visitor who had 1ourneyed long
distance to testify to an interest in the en-
terprise. Maybe ne political significance
attached to 1t. Maybe. it. had In part been
manufactured for the occasion. Maybe the
Missouri democrats were as much attached
to Mr.. Bryan as ever. But the Cleveland
ties would not hear to anything Of the kind
They knew the signs Of a ground swell
when they saw them, and they had seen
them.
Mr.. Fleming's appraisement of the matter
is probably correct. There Is no Cleveland
boom in Missouri. nor anywhere else at
present outside of truss circles in New
York and New Jersey. That ground swell
has not as yet materialized.

The End Seat Problem.

Houston, Tex. has been greatly agttated
o. late over that perennial summer ques-
ton the lend seat hog Its city council
has been petitioned by the women of the
community to devise some legal measure to
check the selfshness of the man who blocks
the way, and in consequence 1t has adopte
an ordinance which declares that the pas
serger who occupies the end seat and re-
fuses to make room for others is guilty of
an offense punishable by heavy fine. Now
for the enforcement. There is a very seri-
Gus question whether such an ordinance
can stand the scrutiny of the constitutional
lawyers. Can city council dictate where
a man shall sit in street car? Can not the
man whom nature has endowed with
more than average flesh claim the inalien-
able right to the pursuit Of happiness in
his act of taking the seat from which he
can with the least degree of physical dis
comfort leave the car at his Destination
Can he not assert with some show of right
that the first duty In the case Is that Of the
street car company to provide wider exits
between seats?
The end-seat man has some rights which
cannot justly be denied. OF course. so have
those who come after him to the car and
seek entrance to the bench he has pre-
empted. The end-seat man can claim the
privilege of enjoying the fruits of his early
arrival. The man who follows him can
claim that there no reserved seats in
street cars. The end-seat man can claim
that the last conner should not be best
served, against the usual rule. The late
conner can claim that the first conner should
not obstruct the way to the remaining
seats. And so the controversy may rage.
Perhaps in the end. if the car companies
will not widen the passageway, the late
conner has his own remedy in ruthless
manner of reaching the distant seat A
little practice will enable him to step on the
toes of the offender at the end of the seat
more or less lightly. according to the age.
sex and degree of obstruction For the
end-seat man is often woman.

The Gun Remains.

Sir Thomas Upton, as on two previous
occasions. has lost and won. He came for
the cup. but again found it beyond his
reach. He came hoping to strengthen the
bond of good will between himself and his
numerous friends In the United States. and
in that he has succeeded. The more the
American people see of him the better they
like him. He is at once good sportsman
and a good fellow, and better loser 1t
would be difficult to imagine. He sails his
boats fairly as the old Kentucky turfman
ran his horses, from -eend to eend. ana
leaves nobody in doubt as to his sincere In
terest in the contest Hospitable. pubic
spirited. whole-souled and diplomatic. he
stands for good sport on the water ana sooo
cheer everywhere. Serene In defeat. We
may safely assume that he would be I'M
spoiled by victory; that had he lifted the
Gun he would have borne 1t home without
bravado
The only unpleasant thing connected with
this latest contest has been the gossip as
cribtng to Sir Thomas criticism of his skip
per and of the designer of his yacht, spoken
in private conversation. This, very nat
urally has annoyed him, and he has re-
scented it In the press dispatches. Such gos-
SIP was q fragrant breach of hospitality
and those responsible for 1t have deserved
the rebuke Sir Thomas has administered
His boat was outclassed and his skipper
outgeneraled. but that Sir Thomas ever
questioned their loyalty to him. or walled
in private over the situation, Is too stupid
for belief. But in denouncing 1t Sir Thomas
but protected himself against any harm
that might come of 1t in thoughtless circles
Every victory increases our confidence In
our ability to hold the cup as against all
corners Our latest defender is the best OF
ALL But we may be able to build even q
better. Our skill is likely to be put to the
test The cup Is a standing challenge. In
the eyes of yachtsmen 1t Is one of the most
desirable pieces of silverware in the world
We shall continue to hear from outsiders
as long as we keep It. But we are not
likely to race with anybody upon terms OF
greater gopd-fellowship. or with better as
surances Of fair dealing. than with the at
tractive man whom we have three times
encountered and defeated. II we are not to
meet him again as an antagonist we can
only hope for one of his type and class

Beirut and the Maine Disaster.

II was to be expected that the Springfield
Republican would be greatly shocked by
the Presidents action in ordering warships
to Beirut to care for American interests
there. But II was hardly to be expected
that even so consistent anti-imperialist
that journal would have raised doubt
to the dispatch of the battle ship Maine
to Havana harbor in the winter of 1897.
Says the Republican:
Foreign naval demonstrations are Sc
rious affairs. not to be entered upon lightly.
when the conditions in a country like
those in Turkey today. Our government
once sent warshfp to Havana. with a
result that cost the United States many
thousands of soldiers lives and vast
treasure of money. The Spanish war per-
hapS. would have come had not the Maine
been ordered to Cuban waters: yet the fate
of the Maine illustrates the gravity of
such operations in the ports of nations
which are struggling with internal revolu-
ton"
The war with Spain could have been pre-
vented only by a complete retreat by that
country from its refusal to grant Cuba
genuine autonomy. The diplomatic nego-
tiations had been exhausted The two gov
ernments had come to a virtual deadlock
and this country was eager for the word to
begin the campaign of force. The bad
breach of manners committed by the Span
ish minister In criticising President McKin-
ley had brought the situation very close
to crisis. There was no hope whatever
that the Madrid government would yield
an inch from its policy toward Cuba The
reeoncentrado plan had proved the last
straw to the back of the American patience
Then came the Maine disaster and the In
vestigation, followed by the declaration OF
war.
1t is astonishing now to be told that there
was no occasion for the presence Of the
Maine In Havana harbor. Cuba contained
many hundreds of American citizens en-.

The Presidents Peril,
From the PhiladeIpbia Press

The Weilbrenner affair is an unpleasant
reminder of the constant peril which men,
aces republics President. Such a promi-
nent and brilliant mark easily suggests to
unbalanced minds the desirability Of using
it as a target The unpleasant incident is
a reminder that yet Congress, though
admonished by experience. has not passed
any special legislation designed to promote
the greater security of the President and to
give the United States courts jurisdiction
over the miscreant who seeks his life In
whatever part of the United States the at
tempt is made. The difference Of opinion
between the two houses of Congress on the
single point whether the protection should
be given to the President as a man or as
an official has prevented the adoption of
any measure whatever.
