Speaking of the statue OF Gen.
Cass recently put in statuary hall in
Washington, the Omaha Bee say:
Michigan may we'll feel proud OF her
adopted son, who for half century
served his country in high office.
While it may be true that Cass has
not left the impress of his individual
ity upon the history OF the United
States such as was stamped by Web
ster, Clay or Calhoun, nevertheless,
he was looked up TO rs one OF the
leaders OF the democratic party during
his long period of public service. The
career OF Cass was a most notable one.
In the war OF 1912 he was brigadier
general. Two years later he was APP
pointed the first governor of Michigan
territory and served in that capacity
for sixteen years. Under jackson he
became secretary OF war. Van Buren,
honored him with the French mission.
On his return to the United States in
1912, he was elected senator OF Michi-
gan and after serving his state in con-
gress for many years Cass closed his
long public life as secretary OF state
under Buchanan. The lustre of his
name has been dimmed on account of
his attitude on the slave question, but
his place as a statesman of the nation
cannot be disputed, and Michigan has
tttingly honored his memory.

correspondent asks an explanation
of the direct tax bill. An act was
passed by congress in 1861 providing
that direct taxation TO the amount OF
twenty million dollars annually should
be collected from the people OF the
United States by assessment upon real
estate, and that these taxes should be
apportioned according to population,
as required by the cons tuition, All
OF the Northern states and few Of the
southern states paid the tax in whole
or in part, the aggregate amount thus
received by the government being
about twenty million dollars. The
direct tax bill provides for the refund
ing to the states and territories the
sums thus paid to the general govern
ment, and for RENTING and relinquish-
ing all moneys due the government
under the act of 1861.

The succsssorship OF Tennyson as Great
Britain's Poet Laureate.
LONDON, Feb. 25.-Lord Tennyson's
age and failing health have started a
discussion in literary and official circles,
as to his probable successor, as poet
laureate. 1t is rumored that Alfred
Austin is the most likely to have the
high honor thrust on HIN. He has
written no verse lately, and his volumes
are not very widely read, but he is. a
politician, and he has strong claims
on the present head of the govern
mont Robert Browning is not
seeking the distinction, but if he is
passed over his many friends will be
sorely grieved. Mr.. Swinburne has
become a Tory, but Notwithstanding
this fact his claims will receive but
seant consideration, as the friends of the
other aspirants are freely asserting that
the bulk.of his verse is unfit for perusal
by chaste minds. Accordingly it is
thought that Austin is a first favorite
with the official who ~dispenses the gov
eminent patronage.

What England Fears.

LONDON, Feb. 25.-The passage of the
Nicaraguan canal bill by the United
States congress has led to considerable
discussion here of the effect of the canal
upon British interests. The controversy
which occurred several years ago as to
the proper Interpretation of the Clayton
Bulwer treaty, is likely to be renewed.
MIR. Blaine was at that time secretary of
state, and it Is considered p.obable that
he will, on resuming that office, take
occasion to reiterate his views as to the
application of the Munroe doctrine to
the subject of the isthmian canal con-
troll. England never fully assented to
the doctrine laid down by the American
premier at that time, but the brevity of
the Garfield administration, and the.
turn which events subsequently took in
connection with the De Lesseps enter
prise, made unnecessary any further ill.,
slstence on a different construction of
the treaty. If Mr.. Blaine now renews
his efforts to have the treaty abrogated,
as Inconsistent with the long established
claims OF the United States to priority
of interest in the Central American
states, there is likely to be some very in
teresting diplomatic fencing on both
sides. English business interests view
some uneasiness the prospect of Ameri.
can monopoly of trans-isthmian COM
munlcation, and will insist so far as pos
sible upon some international guarantee
of neutrality. There seems to be an i'm
preston here that the Panama canal is
also likely to finally drift into the hands
OF American capitalists and to be fin
ished by them. The large American in
terest in the Panama railroad is consid-
cred as favorable to such a scheme. By
a wiping out of old obligations a reor-
gained company could get the property
cheaply enough to warrant its compile
ton on a profitable basis. The clever
uess of the Americans in such financial
transactions is regarded here as invinci-
bic.
