The Society Of tho Friends OF Trees -four
ishes in Nice. It's object lie the general res
toration Of tho forests throughout the French
republic. All the bald spots are to be covered
with new growth Each member must plant
or cause to be planted at least one tree every
year. pay dues to the amount OF two francs
year. and protect, so far as his power goes. all
the trees already existing.
The Figaro pokes fun Mt the society. but in
tho end admits that trees are useful and that
there are many other societies less worthy Of
public support.
One Of the foremost champions Of trees was
an engineer named RAucH. In 1918 he pub
lished two volumes entitled REGENERATION de
Ia Nature TspSiate in which he argues that
trees are the true riches OF a country He tells
us that the barbarians OF Daghestan had q
law which forbade any man to get married
who had not planted at q given place hun
dred fruit trees. Thanks to this piece Of wise
Legislation. the hills and valleys Of that por-
ton Of Asia we're covered with groves Of fruit
trees. He also tells us that in America each
man who is lucky enough to hnvo son born
to him plants a tree and gives 1t the namo OF
the boy. Somebody may have deceived tho
good man: yet we have our Arbor Day. and it
is fine kind OF day. Success to the Friends
OF Trees

Typical Chicago.

The enterprise OF the Inter- Ocean has fur
nished Chicago with a typical figure illus
trating the peculiar genius OF that town.
The Inter Ocean offered n prize for the
best design emblematic Of the "individ-
uality. peculiar spirit and special charac-
ter" of the city. 1t reports that 1t has re-
ccived about three hundred sketches.
thirty or forty OF which are published.
They are very interesting.
The prize type represents Chicago as
tall. stout young woman in n night gown
and corsets. Her hcaddress is q spread
eagle perched upon n crown Of flames. Her
large slippcrcd feet are planted far apart.
and firmly against her left hip she holds a
carpenters square. Her eyes are nearly rs
large as her slippers. Her face expresses
the physical anguish caused by the clutch
OF the eagles claws upon her burning hair.
Her corsets are embroidered in a rocco
pattern, surrounding the motto:

THE UNFLYNCHING DEMOCRAT
Gov. Hiirs Heroic Efforts In Behalf OF the
National Democracy In 1855.


Prom Gen. Daniel E. siesle.. Speech a, Atlanta.
II hear another inquiry from
gentleman who honors me by his atten-
ton. although. perhaps. not quite agree
ing with my views. Ho asks: Is it true
that the defeat OF the Democratic can
didate for President In 1888 may be at
tributed In any degree to the indifYer-
once. or to the hostility. open or secret, OF
our candidate for Governor In that year2 II
1were unable to give an emphatic and un-
qualified denial to this Islander. I would not
be found among the list OF delegates to
the Chicago Convention. accepting the mis-
sion to advocate the nomination Of Gov. Hill
as our candidate for President. Gov Hill Is q
party man. lloyd to his party steadfast and
trustworthy in support Of its measures. its
policy. and its candidates. He is firm and
consistent believer In the value. tho efficacy.
and the responsibilities Of party organization.
He has too often denounced and punished
treachery toward the candidates OF the Demo-
CRITIC party to allow himself to be truthfully
impeached for tho samo offence.
Fortunately. 1t happens to be In my power
to offer conclusive answer to this story. In
the canvass OF 1888 was invited by Gov. Hill
to accompany him on tour throughout tho
State OF Now York for the purpose. as he
stated to me. OF endenvoring to conciliate
some OF the opposition shown toward Gov
Cleveland by our veteran soldcry. I had long
before retired from any active part in political
contests. and this was we'll known to Gov
HILL And 1t was not until saw his great So
licitude. in view OF the probable falling off Of
the soldier vote from the Presidential ticket
that yielded to his earnest request. Visiting
many counties and towns with him, had
ample opportunities to witness the zeal. dill
Rence. md ability shown by Gov. Hill

Not Principles, but Men.

Tho Muywtl:rp movement had i.s origin
in n feeling of personal srtte. Certain Re-
pub!icnns hated Mr.. BLAINE. After much
virtuou- pal:ycr aud parade they voted for
Mr.. CLEVELAND. Their course was not die
tatel by principle. If they and been sin
cere in their attachment to the Republican
party. they wee voting for the success OF a
party which was in many thirgs the direct
opposite OF the one they were leaving. the
triumph Of which would mean the triumph
Of principles in many respects Numerically
opposite to those which they had prufessed
to believe in. 1'hcy did not fO-eseo in
1881 that GROVER CLEVELAND would betray
the hopes and desert tho platform OF the
Democracy. Full of blind and insensate
hostility to Mr.. BLAINE. they gave their
support to NJ. CLEVELAND. and In time they
came to worship the ono with rs much ar
dor as they hated tho othcr. Ofcourse they
care nothing for the Democratic party:
they are simply followers OF the Stuffed
Prophet. Now that the Democracy Is rid
of him. they are willing TO support any
Republican except perhaps BLAINE.
lfthey wrier capable OF taking any other
than q petty personal view. il they had politi-
cal principles anlwere not actuated by their
historical likes AMI dislikos. they would do
sire Democratic success. evcn II the Demo-
cratic candidate were not to their mind.
But Itcpublicanisml. with Mr.. BLAINE out Of
the way. IL NOR. attractive to them than
Democracy with Mr.. CLEVELAND out OF the
way. They have boon bowling like maniacs
for the reduction OF the tariff. yet they are
willing TO vote for n high-tarlff candidate.
The Mugwump cycle has been run, Tho
Mugwump is incapable Of q hearty belief in
any political principles. He is simply q
person who hates BLAINE and adores
CLEVELAND. He oscillatcs from one party to
another. but in spite OF his noisy pretences.
he is incapable OF honest faith In any party
or any principles.
The Democracy is lucky In its prospect Of
being we'll rid OF these humbugs.

visable Il needs no argument to show
that alien criminals. polygamists. and An
archists should be denied the privilege OF
citizenship. All may not agree as to the
prorriety Of excluding those who are I'M
able to read the Constitution OF the United
States; but 1t ia little difficult to see how
any foreigner can really have any intelli-
gent comprehension Of our system OF gov
eminent. or become so attached to 1t as to
mako worthy and desirable citizen. UNI
less he possesses the ability to read the
fundamental law Of the land in some Ian

does not require that the applicant for
naturalization shall be able to read the
Constitution in English.
Tho provision for notice to the United
States District Attorney In tho Federal

cants more careful In proving and courts
more careful In ascertalning the necessary

features OF the bill.
In concluding their report upon this
measure. the House Committee on the Ju-

A Question Of Honor.

The return OF Mr.. DRAYTON and Mr..
BoRRowE from abroad will give a new i'm.
petus to the discussion which is now going
on. as to the propriety OF the conduct Of each
as measured by the standard Of what is
known as honor among gentlemen.
Into this debate the behavior OF the lady
concerned does not enter. That involves q
question Of moral and legal obligation to
be determined in the forum OF the con.
science and possiblyin a court OF law: and II
cannot be settled without evidence which
has not yet been produced. Nothing is
proved against her. Any imputation OF
culpability is a matter OF Inference only. It
may be case where the only foundation
for charges Of evil is the appearance OF evil.
The circumstance that her husband chal-
lenged Mr.. BoRROwE might be construed
reasonably as an indication that he held her
guilty of the minor offence rather than OF
tho serious crime against marriage. II a
husband discovers that man has misled
his wife. and he is disposed to violence
against him. his usual course Is to assail
the seducer without the formalities OF a
duel. He does not call in seconds to ar
range q hostile meeting. but proceeds to
his vengeance in his own way. taking coun-
sci OF his savage instincts only. The method
followed by Mr.. DRAYTON. therefore. would
seem to indicate that he regards Mr.. BoR-
ROWE as an impcrtinent disturber OF his
household. whose conduct has exposed Mrs.
DRAYToN to injurious differences. and not
as her partner in criminal intrigue.
Tho conduct OF Mr. BoRROwE suggests
the same conclusion. 1t is not conceivable
that a gentleman would for his own ex-
culpation give to publctya correspondence
which would expose the conjugal inndelity
OF his partner in sin. First Of ALL and above
everything else. he would protect her; and
that obligation Is carried SO far among
men of tho world that ono is justified
even in pcriuring himself to save tho
woman. HE perjured himself like a
gentleman" was said OF tho Prince of
WALES when no made such denial in
testimony given in an English court. At
all hazards the woman must DO protected;
that is the law among gentlemen. The man
must sacrifice himself for her. rs she sacri-
feed her honor for him. We shall not under
take to consider that prime obligation in
the light OF religion. or OF abstract morals.
We simply state it as imperative among
men OF the world
The trial which will go on before gentle
men will therefore be Of the man and not OF
the woman. Whether the man has fulfilled
or violated his obligation Of honor to her. is
the question considered by other men.
