Once in a while an American il thoughtless
enough to express an uncharitIbly sweeping
opinion unfavorable to the Italian people.
Italy has grand claim on humanity consid-
cred both in the ancient and the modern
sense. A she ruled the world either actually
or nominally from Julius Cesar TO Romuus
Augustulus also in modern times have Ital-
ians born ruled great empires. and dominated
art, religion and literature for periods more or
less extended yying in the Corsican Bona
parte with the greatest names in history. and
in Dante with the world grandest epic pcets
and in Columbus with the boldest of discoy-
erers, Italian genius attained its climacteric in
Michael Angelo, most universal of artists
While the abOrtive craftsmanship OF Rudini OBJ
scures from popular vision the achievements of
Mazzini and Cavour, students of history can
not afford to ignore the great facts that have
lifted the italian people into something like
their former place of vantage. Contempt OF
the ignoble Malta is deserved. Contempt of
Italy Is misplaced The generous American
mind rises above little temporary prejudices
and does justice to the people who once con-
quered the world in arms and whose descend
ants reconquered it in the higher arts of peace

the state laws of New York TO be punished by
electrocution are to be electrocuted There
has been, as the court says, in effect, too much
delay in these cases by attempts to defeat the
ends of justice. The forms of law subsist for
the purposes of justice and not either TO afford
notOriety for ambitious attorneys or means of
obstruction against the laws of state by selfish

The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1891-02-18

SIR JOHN MCDONALD, Governor
General of Canada, has prorogued
parliament and ordered a new cleo
ton for members Of that body. II
seems that the old parliament held
too friendly q feeling towards the
United States and were given to the
discussion of reciprocity and other
kindred measures looking to closer
business and social relations between
the two countries. This displeased
the mother country and her English
representatives in the government
of Canada, and to shut of the grow.
ing desire to debate the situation.
the statesmen were dismissed and
sent home. The Canadian people
are alive to the situation and will
make it exceeding warm for Sir John
if they do not succeed in heading
him off entirely.
