PRINCE Napoleon has proved himself to
be an ass. President Carnot on his recent
trip to Corsica paid visit to the house in
which the Little Corporal was born.
Prince Napoleon, conceiving it impossible
for French Republican to admire the
genius of Bonaparte, writes to the Presi-
dent sharp letter, charging him with
insincerity, saying:
born you committed an act of grave impropri-
ETY.. The house does not belong TO the Govern
ment, You had no right whatever TO cross Rs
threshold. What is there in common between
the First Consul, who, in space of few months
made new France, and your Government,
with It's work of daily disorganization? What
is there in common between the Emperor, who
ana your parliamentary regime, which is dying
OF its own impotency? How can you, who
without reason prescribe me, his heir dare TO
pay hypocritical homage TO the cradle OF the
great man.
That is to say, II have the right to rule
in France irrespective of the choice of the
people, and since l cannot, because the
people will not have it so, you, the choice
of France, have no right to pay respect to
the memory of Napoleon" The descend
ants of royalists, monarchists and aristo-
Gratis in these days are proving what weak
timber they are made Of

7 HE people who are so touchy about
giving our ministers proper title abroad
that will present the American Nation in
be tier light among foreign people and
give our officials greater influence, ought
to s. udy the question little before they
condemn the bill introduced to give min
listers the title Of ambassadors in certain
case 5. The title in no way changes the
character of the Office or its incumbent
Foreign nations do place value on the
distinctions of titles of offices, and we are
foolish not TO recognize them. We spite
no one but ourselves if we insist upon call
ing bur officials by names that abroad de-
priv e them of ability to advance our inter-
ests. Mr. Reid or Mr. Lincoln remain the
same plain American citizens, whether
called ambassadors or Ministers or ma
tional agents, jumping,jacks or horse auc-
tioneers. What matters it to US what they
are called, if they do their duty and serve
US well? But when abroad it does matter
a great deal whether their power for good
tous is limited by reason of rules Of foreign
courts that give first recognition to one
class Of representatives and secondary
recognition to another class. Let US not
be foolish in our democratic stiffness in
this matter. To call Minister an EN-
bassador does not one whit tend to the
creation Of an aristocratic class, and the
people who are so thin-skinned on the SUBJ
ject simply confess their ignorance of the
conditions that prevail in foreign nations
where titles count for something. If pat
ents of nobility were involved, or questions
of titles that would descend to heirs or,
indeed, any titles were in issue that attach
in any way whatever to "blue blood" or to
an aristocratic class, then there would be
some occasion for protest. But under the
bill that we hope will pass, John Smith, of
Podunk, will be John Smith still, whether,
when serving his country abroad, he is
styled ambassador or pork merchant.

THE French spoliation claims were first
presented to Congress in 1908, and since
then no less than forty-nine committees
have submitted reports concerning them
1t is not ereditable to our system of doing
national business that the matter should
have so long been before the Congress of
the nation. OF the forty-nine reports, all
but Two have been favorable 10 payment,
and since 1922 all the committees having
the matter in hand have reported in favor
of the claims. Negotiations concerning

MURAT HALsTEAD, commenting upon
the Sherman reception and supper, enters
his protest against the exclusion of ladies
from such public affairs and dinners of
ceremony. He is eminently sensible when
he says
There was something lacking even at this re-
ception-lhe ladies. | wonder now and then,
and more and more in affairs of this character,
how 1t happens and can go on happening thai
the brightest and sweetest OF all attractions
should be denied, that lovely woman should be
banished Just where her beauty would be most
graceful and grateful. The same thought is
pertinent as to our dinners. Americans have
reputation that they may be well proud of in all
civilized countries for the unfailing considera-
tion in which they treat the fair, whom none
but the brave deserve. Why should not the
American cities, now the most luxurious in the
world, and New York the most so of all, where
the dinner and the reception are as Astounding
institutions as in London, take the advance in
fixing the fashion that the presence of ladies is
indispensable where receptions are fascinating
and dinners delightful?
The exclusion of women from most such
affairs is relic of those periods in which
the sex occupied so low level that it was
confined TO galleries with lattice work
through which the ladies might look
down upon their masters as they sat at
dinner. 1t is a relic, in short, of ages in
which the woman was held to be the chat
tel of man, one who had little more place
in his economy of life than to serve his
pleasure, and when he pleased to take her.
self off to her grave.

illustration of the vicious tendency Of the
clannish spirit, and the danger of encour-
aging it, was given recently by pupils of
the Lincoln Grammar School in Brookline,
Mass. The most of the boys in the school
are of Irish parentage but American born.
The clannish spirit has been cultivated
among these lads, and they have been
taught by example and direct instruction
of priests and false leaders that they are
not so much Americans as Irish-Ameri-
cans. Recently society in that city that
INDUCES in the folly of parting its name in
the center and styles itself the British
American Association presented an Ameri-
can flag to the school authorities to be
foated over the building. Thereupon the
children of Irish parentage resolved that
the flag should not be raised, and being
supp orted by ill-adyised friends, they pro-
ceeded to raise fund to procure nag on
their own account, and succeeded in hay-
ing the earlier gift declined. But fearing
that the return would not be made, and
bein led to believe that the offered flag
was to be raised on given day, these
rebellious youths left the school building
in body and proceeded, in the words of
graphic local account, "to make Rome
how l." This led to the matter being
dragged into the issues of local election,
and all Brookline was for some weeks torn
by factions of foreigners, warning over the
origination of bit of American bunting,
The incident is not one of special moment
but it serves to illustrate the danger that
resides in conservation of the foreign
Am rican idea; the evil of the clannish
spirit that keeps alive sentiments not
in harmony with the American idea, and
that are insidiously finding root and send
ing out trunk and branch in American

President Washington. Under Mr.. Adams
treaty was agreed upon by which France
released the United States from certain
obligations, and we agreed in considers
ton of such release and the payment of
certain indemnity from France, to take up
and dispose of the claims, but to this date
we have not accomplished the task. In
1855 the claims were sent to the Court Of
Claims for review, where they were proved
up and report made TO Congress for their
payment. A bill is now pending to pro-
vide for such payment The measure has
just been reported and the committee ad-
wise in very strong language that payment
be made, yet there is opposition to it, and
it is possible that the affair will again be
thrown over to the next session. If it is
it will place the nation in very unfavor-
able light abroad.

In leaving the city last night Mrs. Stan

tainly no better direction could have been
given to it-none more in harmony with

The city of Sacramento handsomely re-
ceived and treated the visiting Pioneers
yesterday. There was no ostentatious dis
play, no effort to make great deal Of the
occasion, but simple, homely and sincere
welcome, and such attention as did not
embarass and yet that served to set the
guests at perfect ease and make them feel
at home. The Sacramento Society Of Cali
fornia Pioneers was especially successful
in its reception of the visitors.

ONE of the strange features Of the re-
cent epidemic of the grip" is now said 10
be its effect upon insane patients. In a
number Of such cases the insanity of the
person disappears with the subsistence Of
the influenza. There may be, probably is.
good reason for this result. The grip in
nearly all cases affected the brain, and the
fever resulting may have had the direct
tendency to destroy conditions out of
which insanity grew.

says: Proper local treatment is positively
necessary to success, but most of the remedies

as only one of a dozen who were pre-

on the stage of the Academy. He be-
lieved there was no hope for him. He
was stationed at Governors Island, but
he asked to be sent out on the frontier, SO
that he might run chance of being
killed He was transferred as he re-
quested, and, whenever there was a
skirmish with the Indians, put himself
in the front of the fight. One day he
was rewarded; bullet hit him in a vital
part and he died on the field. A friend
