the campaign against Leconne have been
ordered into positions between Fort Weder

STATUE TO Ex-PREs1DENT THEIRS.
NANCY, France, Aug. Am enormous
crowd was present to-day at the unwilling of
the statue of Ex-President Theirs. De
Macere, minister of the interior, declared in
to remain true to the noble ideas of Theirs,
namely, a conservative republic, guarding
the national traditions and just influence Of
France in Europe and in the whole world.
Jules Simon dwelt upon the frmness of
Theirs in resisting even his own party when
his liberal conservative convictions were
touched. Simon concluded by saying France
is saved. She passes forever as republican
government and with liberty to think, teach
and write. She has issued from combat.
It is necessary for her either to
vanquish her enemies or to reassure them.
The deinitive form of the revolution of 1870
is conservative liberal republic such as NJ
Theirs created. Murtel, president of the
senate, also spoke. The speech of Simon
was interesting as justifying his resistance
to Jules Ferry's educational policy by point
ing to the example of Theirs. Simon has
been accused by the Gambattists of intend
ing to make bid for the premiership at the
N ancy demonstration.
