WHAT HE SAW IN LONDON.
Philip Dc Grandlieu to Clsmeuceau-A
Comparison Between England and
France.


Comparison Between England and
Philip de Grandlieu, the Royaist writ
or Of the Paris Figaro, addresses, through
its columns, an open letter to Clemen
ccau, who has just returned to Paris from
visit to London. He calls the Republi
can leaders attention to certain curious
things he must have seen in England
and which, according to De Grandlieu
1t would be difficult to find in France.
"You must have seen." he writes, "a
proud and liberal democracy; intelligent
and just, not Jacobiuical and revenge
full, blindly psrsecuting those that have
run counter to its wishes.
aYou have seen nation that recon.
Giles progress and traditions, the main.
tenance of royalty and the development
Of liberty.
"You have seen the nation, with prac.
tical good sense, satisfied with equality
before the law, just taxation, impartial
rewarding Of meritorious services in the
army or the navy and the opening of all
careers to the most worthy.
"You have seen parliamentary MAORI
ties, as free from violence as from fanat-
icism, who protect society from the in
roads of Cinkering theorists.
"You have seen Q nation imbued with
the spirit of Belgium and keeping holy
the Sabbath Day.
"You have seen Bradlaugh. the atheist
who, turned out and kept out Of Parlia-
ment, though he offers now TO take an
oath he does not believe in. The man.
ner and morals of our English neighbors
insist on religion in the State. The Jews
who have fought their way into Parlia-
ment believe in q god, while atheism
means destruction TO society.
You have seen Westminster Palace,
that the Emperor Nicholas called u
dream in stone Amid those architect
ural glories devotion to tradition and the
historical past overthrew the spirit OF
sect or party. You have seen the throne,
with its raised dais, its mighty candela-
bra and its steps like an alter, and may
ask yourself if this be not the sanctuary
Of royalty and freedom.

After comparing the vast dominions
of the British Queen with the compare
lively small area of the French Republic

would gladly have accorded him,

can be met. He is convicted on
his own statements Of deliberate
falsehood on the most solemn occa-
sions," etc. But we need not ex-
tend these disgusting details, all Of
which were fully known end it
would seem highly appreciated by
the riff raft Of the party to whom
Blaine is indebted for his nominal
ton, while the purer element there
of regard it as an insult to decency,
an outrage on political honesty. 1t
is for these and many other cogent
reasons given that a large portion
of the Massachusetts Republicans
denounce Blaine and all who sup
port him. 1t implies that the party
can exist by his defeat better than
by his election. In contrasting the
| two candidates it uses such Ian
|
guage as this: 'The Democratic
candidate is the acknowledged
champion of reform and political
honesty, in each of which Blaine is
most conspicuonsly deficient. The
issue is thus joined, the leaders are
representative men, the foremost Of
their kind, and we cannot for an in.

AND so Cosgrove and Walton
both have gone over into the Re-
publican camp. Well, what if they
have? Who cares? The latter new
er did have any influence outside
of controlling his own vote, whilst
the former has been ''killed off,
some time back. Cosgrove's last
political squirt in Natchitoches Par
ish showed how very weak he was,
with not half the following some
we're inclined to believe he had.
Both the General and Colonel are
played out, and there is no disgui-
sing this fact any longer. If Office
is what they are after, they stand a
slim chance, for Blaine is going to
be the worst beaten candidate that
ever ran for the Presidency.

The situation in a nut she'll is
this: Butler will work hand and

for Blaine, but if he will not do that,
he will be glad to have him vote for

publican Independent meeting held
in New York, the first organized
demonstration thereof after the
Democratic Nominating Conven-
ton at Chicago, we thought Ian
guage had we'll nigh been exhaust
ed in its array of reasons why Mr..
Blaine should not be supported for
the Presidency by the purer element
of the party that nominated him.
But it was left for the Massachu-
sets Independents to drive the nail
home and thoroughly clinch it,
left for subsequent outpouring Of
Republican electors to proclaim
and place on record what they style
u Republican Reuieac Of the Repub-
7ica'a Party" but more especially
an arraignment Of its nominee for
the Presidency, James G. Blaine.
This review is so incisive and
scathing while at the same time di-
vested of everything Of strictly
party character, being both calm
and dignifed but strictly authentic,
it leaves absolutely no peg on
which the Republican candidate
can stand. We can in no way so
forcibly illustrate our meaning as
by quoting from the text of this
the most recent Republican protest
against the Republican nominee
We can quote but briefly, but
! would earnestly commend to all a
perusal of the proceedings in full,
to be found in the Times Democrat
of the 10th inst. From it we quote,
viz: "The question is not what the
Republican party has done but
what it will do; not what it was
but what it is. Not that Lincoln
and Seward and Sumner and An
drew and Staunton and Fessenden
were great men and leaders, but
whether Blaine and Robson and
Keiffer and Elkins and Clayton
and Kellogg are men to whom we
can safely confde the future Of oul
country" etc. ''For many years
; corruption in high offices has been
conspicuous, it has shown itself in
every department of the public ser
vice; we have seen a Vice-Presi
dent driven into private life by
proof of personal dishonesty;
Secretary of War impeached TO:

it proceeds to arraign many of thu

Tricycles for Ladies.

The use Of the tricycle. by ladies does
not seem to have become so general in
this country as the use of the bicycle by
men. This is a great pity, because
American women should take more ex-
ercise than they do now; and tricycle.
riding seems TO possess many advan-
tages not so fully found elsewhere.
Were it once given the approval of
fashion it is almost certain that 1t would
become extremely popular with all
classes of American women. 1t is the
testimony of large numbers of English
ladies that it is delig ghtful, pleasurable
and healthful pastime. Moreover, now
that bicycling is becoming so common
among men, II is only fair that the ladies
should be given chance to follow
them, so to speak. There are obvious
reasons why they can not get on the
male bicycle; to follow on foot is out Of
the question; and even the native gall
lantry of the male cycler will not make
it possible for him to stand still on his
machine in country road 10 talk with
his lady friends. The side-saddle was
designed to enable the ladies to accom-
pany the gentleman OH horseback. In
the same way the tricycle. seems to have
been invented TO enable them to accom-
pahy male humanity in the healthful ex-
ercise of bicycling.
American ladies only want the OPP
portunity to use and enjoy this means
of speedy locomotion. They are brave
enough 10 mount kicking ponies, stumb-
ling cobs, or boiling and runaway hunt
ers. Will they not be braye enough TO
fill their places with this ready, mex
pensive and beautiful "steed of steel?'
1t is quite possible. too, that the tri-
cycle might enlarge the sphere of wom-
ans work in suburban towns and coun-
try districts. The female book agent
might II mounted on it slay her thou.
sands where now she only slays her
hundreds. The appointment of female
tricyclers as letter-carriers would be 0

About four miles north of Mount Pulas.
XII, on the farm Of Joseph Ream, stands q
white oak tree which once served as
temple Of justice, whero Lincoln prac.
ticed law. The old mill stand, with its
dam, was the first built on Salt Creek.
Dement'S rights were encroached upon by
a dam, built few miles below, for the
Spence mill. The water Of the dam below
backed up to the Dement, dam and stopped
its great wheel. Dement, brought suit and
employed Lincoln to prosecute the case.
This was in 1910. A Justice of the Peace,
fresh from his pillow on the prairie, and
bubbling over with law and native justice,
played the part Of Judge. Twelve Of the
best men to be found in all the surround.
ing country were made jurors, and the
case was opened to them, seated gravely
in row on the ground, In the shade Of the
tree. When the evidence was all in Mr..
Lincoln made one Of his peculiar speeches,
full Of force, wit, apt anecdotes and ridi-
cule. The jury deliberated short time
and brought in verdict in favor Of Lin
coins client, and pronounced the lower
dam an encroachment on Dement'S rights.
The case gave Lincoln high place In pub.
lie estimation in that locality, position
which he never lost, and tho tree is still
known throughout tho neighborhood al
Lincoln's tree.
