SOCIALISM IN GERMANY.

The incidents growing out of the cele-
bration of the victory of Sedan have given
an unexpected impetus and dignity to
socialism in Germany at first the re-
fusal OF the socialists to participate in the
celebrations, and their open denunciation
of the idea, particularly in the Reichstag,
brought down popular indignation on
their heads. They were charged with a
lack OF patriotism. They might have re-
manned under this cloud had not the EN-
peror, apparently with great lack of wis.,
dom, laid the heavy hand of censorship on
the socialistic press. For the greater part,
the section OF the socialistic press thus
treated was rabid ard offensive, and did
not truly represent the socialistic senti-
ment as it appears in the Reichstag, but
the fact that the freedom of the press was
so rudely assailed gave the higher social
lists their opportunity, and they have en-
ployed it to bring about a surprising reac-
ton in favor of their doctrines.
The Emperor went even further than to
muzzle the socialistic press. He is charged
in that connection with having declared
that the socialists were band of persons
unwilling to bear the name of Germans"
This gave the Vorwaerts, a dignified social
list newspaper, which is being prosecuted
for seditious utterances, an excuse for de-
claring that in assailing the patriotism of
the socialists he had gone too far. But
two socialist leaders, Auer and Vollmar,
have been most effective in producing the
reaction. They are declaring that the rea-
sons for refusal to participate in the
Sedan commemorative exercises was de-
sire not to irritate the French, and that if
ever the safety OF the German nation

THE sUTRO SITE.

When the Board of Regents meet to-day
to decide upon a site for the Affiliated
Colleges, the members should bear in
a most important one, as their choice will
affect the welfare of the colleges for gen.
erations to come. When once located the
colleges cannot be removed except at a
great sacrifice. In making the choice
therefore, the regents must consider the
future as well as the present and select a
site where there is room for the colleges to
grow and where there is room also for the
City to develop around it all those indus
tries that form accessories to university
life.
Of the sites offered to the choice of the
regents, there is no question in the public
mind that the one known as the Sutro
site is best. In itself the site is desirable
by reason OF the spacious size and COM
handing position. Buildings erected there
will be beautiful by location, and there
will be ample room to add to them. The
accessories to the site are also advanta-
tageous. 1t is near the park. 1t is in the
line OF the progress of the City. 1t is con-
venient of access now and will be more so
every year. Finally, it adjoins the tract
where the Sutro library will stand, and
the colleges will, therefore, have the benefit
of the best equipped library for the use of
scholars that is to be found west of Chi
cago.
1t is not needful to dwell upon these
arguments. They have been made familiar
to the public in our local reports, and the
great mass of the people have been con-
WINGED of their soundness. The faculties
Of the colleges and many of the alumni,
having inspected the sites offered, have
been almost unanimous in favor of the
tract offered by Mayor Sutro. The regents
should to-day ratify the choice already
made by the public. They should give to
the Affiliated Colleges a location which,
being excellent under present conditions,
will grow in value with the years and
prove place where the colleges may
stand, expand and increase for all time to
come.

One must be very circumspect at Newport.
Etiquette requires of men that they marry the
daughter of host or hostess whenever an in
vitation is accepted to dine at house where
there is q manageable heiress. At the East

of Marlborough would not have dared to be-
come the guest of Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt
