1T APPEARS that managers of the
Philadelphia line of steamers have
invited the new English Minister Ia
the United States, Mr.. Sackviile West,
to come out on one Of their ships.
This courtesy has been offered in con.
sideration of the fact that it was an
ancestor OF Mr.. Saokville West, who in
1910, gave his name to Delaware Bay
and to the State which adjoins 1t, and
who, at the close of the same year,
arrived at jamestown as Royal Gov
eruor and Captain General of Virginia.
"It is recorded by Mr.. Bancroft, T"
says the London Telegraph, "that Lord
Delaware came TO those rude and
sparsely settled shores surrounded by
the pomp of the Old World, and with
train OF liveried servants whose gor-
geous dresses were strangely out OF
harmony with the dense forests of the
old Dominion Lord Delawars's 8
reign was of short duration, for his
health, always feeble, succumbed to
an attack Of fever and ague, which
compelled him to sail for England,
But, short as his term of office was,
Lord Delaware impressed his fellow-
colonists with sense Of the lofty
purity of his character, and upon his
return to England he never ceased to
extol Virginia as the land of promise,
which needed but few English la
borors Of honesty, encountered with
large families, to add o precious Jewel
to the British Crown In 1913 Lord
Delaware was again despatched to
Virginia as Governor, but was never
destined to reach its then distant
sheres. What the voyage across the
Atlantic was In the bluff-bowed sail
Ing vessels of those days, ranging be-
tween 100 and 300 tons in burden,
may be read in the verses of Drayton
and in the precious collections of
Richard Hakluyt. Very different Is
the voyage which, as we hope, now
awaits MIR. Sackville West, whether
he elects to accept the free and COM
plimentary passage offered to him by
the courtesy Of the American steam
ship company whose vessels ply be-
tween Philadelphia and Liverpool, Or,
following the example of his prede-
cessors, prefers to sail on an English
vessel. Mr.. Sackville Vests expert.
ence as diplomatist has already
been wide and extensive, but the mis-
sion upon which he is about TO en-
bark is by long way the most
momentous which he has hitherto un-
dertaken. He carries with him as
recommendations the charming and
conciliatory manners which made his
elder brother, Lord Cantelupe, the
idol of West End society previous to
his premature and universally la
mented death and it is happy
augury for Mr.. Vests success at
Washington that, like four of his most
popular predecessors-Mr. Fox, Sir
Charles Vaughn, Lord Ly ons aud Sir
Frederick Bruce-he is bachelor.
The American nation has just shown
the spirit in which he will be well
coined on the Western continent by
an act of International courtesy which
has never yet been offered to British
Minister, and which indicates the ap-
probation entertained by our warm
hearted kinsmen of the sympathy
which, from the Queen down to the
humblest classes in Great Britain, has
been felt in this country for the Presi-
dent of the United States during his
long and anxious struggle between
life aud death.

The DrOuth.

People who have to buy what they
eat must expect the coming winter
to pay pretty dearly for their living.
We do not say this by way of alarm,
but offer it rather as precaution to
those who have the means to provide
for such an emergency. There has
been an almost unparalleled drouth
all over the continent, resulting in a
poor yield Of wheat, and corn and
root crop that must necessarily be a
failure. There is very little differ
ence in sections. Where rains have
fallen they came SO late that no
essential good could come out Of
them. Corn that burned up by the
sun during the filling process could
not be benefited by rain afterwards;
and at this late day no amount Of
rain can supply what the drouth has
destroyed.

The Baltimore Gasette As the pre-
limiDary contest goes on it becomes
more and more probable that Roscoe
Conkling will control the approach

the Republicans nominated for the
Legislature will be stalwarts and
Conkling men, and that he will run
the machine as he formerly did. 1t

past. and going in again to save the
party. No doubt the ex-senator in
tends TO save the party if that is
necessary to save himself, but it is
extremely doubtful whether under
the circumstances he can do either.
One thing, however, is very evident:
The half.breeds have now discovered
that they blundered when they in
flicted wood-pulp Miller and little
lawyer Lapbam upon the United
States Senate when they had the
chance to put two men of strength
and character to represent New York
in that body. The contract between
Conkling and Miller is too great no,
to have made deep impression upon
the people of New York, and the
half breeds will soon find how great
is that impression.
