sents. First on the list of
nominations to-day and first in distinc-
tion In long public service and in diplo-
matte experience was Thomas f. Bayard.
and it was by unanimous opinion de.
clared fitting that he should be the first
of the ambassadors suggested by the last
Congress. Mr. Bayard is descended from
a race Of statesmen, and his history dur
ing his lifetime is closely allied with the
history of his country.
Philadelphia Inquirer.
Mr. Bayard is fully competent to fiji
this most impor ant post. His long SER
vice in the Senate and his connection
with the former Cleveland administration
will be of great value to him. So long
as we must have Democrat at the
Court of st. James a better selection
could not have been made. Mr.. Bayard
is thorough American.
New York Sun.
The appointment of Mr. Bayard to be
ambassador of the United States TO the
Court of Her Majesty the Queen of Great
Britain and Ireland and the Empress of
India, ought to give universal satisfac
ton Mr. Bayard has the esteem and
confidence of Republicans as well as
Democrats. He is courteous. kind
hearted gentleman. The purity aud
sincerity of his character and The dignity
of his personal bearing will be appreci-
ated as highly in London as they are at
home.
New York Herald.
The difference between an ambassador
and a minister is more a matter of rank
than of right. Their powers and func
tions are the same. But by usage and
the rules laid down by the Congress of
Vienna in 1915 ambassadors rank first
and ministers second This gives to the
former precedence on social and state
occasions and even sometimes in the mat
ter of business The consideration is
not very substantial one. but it is a
discrimination against the rank and
dignity of our representatives abroad
which will be removed by simply giving
them the title of ambassador instead OF
minister. This will not call for any
increase of salary or change in the style
or expense of living.

THE death Of +. Kirby Smith, the last
Of the full generals of the Confederacy,
revives the pretty romance Of his mar.
riage, which the New York Herald tells
thus:
When the battle of Bull Run was begun
Smith was fully thirty miles away. On
receipt Of the news he covered the dis
tance with his troops by forced march
and arrived just in time TO be Of signal
service TO the Southern troops While
making a charge az the head Of his force
he was so severely wounded that little
hope was entertained of his recovery. He
was carried, however. to the house of
Colonel Mcdaniel, where he received the
attention which his desperate case re.
quired. lt lis more than probable that he
would have succumbed but for the care
full nursing Of the colonels daughter.
She watched him night and day and her
efforts were repaid at last by the
patients full recovery.
or course he married the lovely nurse
What else could he do2 For he and the
nurse fell in love with each other On
the same day he signed the marriage
certificate he received his com
mission as a major general
General Smith had an eventful career of
which this is one Of the most interesting
as It is certainly the sweetest incident
Why should we not remember such things
these stories of love and loyalty
rather than the tales of bloody carnage
and pitiless iapine which occurred thirty
years ago2 Have not the old scores Of
the civil war been settled long enough,
or with sufficient cost and sorrow, by
the men who won the contestg Does any
man wish to rob or persecute now because
he did not fight thirty years ago? Let
MS have the love stories of old. so
that we may be inspired to live new
love stories now. God bless that nurse
God take the soul of the wounded
soldier; should be the prayer Of all
good people everywhere.

WASHINGTON, Special Aug. 80
Senator Davis received a telegram
from thetirst National Bank of Man
kato, asking him to see Controller
Eckels and if possible have the time
for opening the bank changed t0Sept.
as the interest on Mankato school
bonds were due, and if not paid on
that day would default. The control
Ter told Senator Davis that all the
national banks of Mankato would
open on Sept. I, and he had issued an
order to that effect and it would be
unfair to change it now, but he did
telegraph Examiner Brush to pay the
school interest coming due Sept. l.
Senator Davis says this is good So
luton of the question and one which
shows the ability of the controller in
handling the details as well as grave
financial questions which have beset
him since he has been in office.
Upon inquiry, we learn that it was
the MankatoNational bank that sent
the dispatch. The amount of inter
est on school bonds is 81. 800 and the
school money is deposited equally in
the three banks. Bank Examiner

Lincoln County leader. [volume] (Toledo, Lincoln County, Or.) 1893-1987, 1893-06-15

There is painful seriousness about
the pleasures of the American aristocrat
that makes her flor it is generally the
woman who rules in these matters) a
most interesting-nay, entertaining
subject for the social philosopher. She
must seek her comrades, for example, not
so much among those whom she likes as
among those whom she must like, and
she must devote herself to amusement
with all the ardor of her soul and all the
vigor of her body.
In the countries where an aristocrat is
born, not made, the members of the Sc
lect body have certain public and useful
functions, and the world is interested in
their play because that is part of the
public ceremonies, but in this happy re-
public, where all are equal, the people
whose social affairs are chronicled in the
press are thus talked about simply be-
cause they play and insist upon believ.
ing that the public is quite as much in.
terested in their balls as in the graver
affairs of state, and that it is much more
of an honor to wear the tab of one of
their coteries than to win seat in the
national legislature. e
They take themselves very seriously,
and they are partly right. At all events
they do the rest of the world very little
harm, and occasionally, no doubt, have
good time.-Harper's Weekly.

Why q Man Lnins

Within few years the craze for clphs
mas extended TO all classes of society and
both sexes until almost every man and
boy IN the community is member of
some club, and many ladies have their
clubs at which to meet their friends and
talk over the fashions or more serious
matters. When the craze took the peo-
pie taey seemed to think it was some
thing IN the way of endowment which
they had overlooked, while business men
found in it Il new and quick way of COM
nunication with customers and n con-
tlnuance of business through the evening
as well as during the hours of daylight,
The club served also to the men of busi
ness as means of acquaintancew with men
whom they might not otherwise meet
without considerable difficulty, and who
might, by rubbing against each other,
serve each others purposes or profit.
1t is striking fact that in many cases
the names of our most remarkable clubs
are misnomers, misleading to the unini-
tiated, and the real objects of the gather.
ing mystery TO the members. A man
joins club for reasons of his own,
which are enjoyment, seclusion from the
outer world, independence, conviviality
and select acquaintance. He wants a
place at which he may meet a friend-he
wants the tone of the club and the priv.
ilege of rubbing against whom he re-
CARDS as his superiors in many things,
particularly business and wealth-and
he doesn't care about the objects of the
organization if there be any other than
what he is there for.-New York Times.

A Faithful Eskimo Doc

Fidelity is the chief virtue of the Es-
hmo dog. One of my leaders when
crippled by starvation and overwork had
to be abandoned because he refused to
be carried on the sled. left him be-
hind feeling as if We're tearing myself
away from dear friend, but before we
continued our way gave him the last
fish we had, depriving ourselves of that
much food. Three days afterward,
while we were encamping at the Eskimo
village of Kahonak, the dog reached us,
having followed our trail with bleeding
feet and emaciated body for eighty-fve
miles, forty-fve of which consisted of
crossing the surface of the great Lake
Hanna in "poorga" "a rather exagger-
ated species of blizzard. "A. B. Schanz
