tie province OF Aisace, saying that on
Saturday the police made doniciliary
visit to the residence of Herr Preiss, MEM
ber of the Reichstag for Colmar, and later
summoned him To appear before the pub

Herr PRESS Immediately complied with
the summons, and it is stated that as
result of his appearance before the prose-
cutting functionary he promised to make
certain changes in the report of an inter-
view with him published In the Paris
Petit Journal, in which he stated that the
Alsatians did not recognize the Franco
German treaty ceding the Reicbland to
Germany, and added that the people of
Alsace looked to France to obtain satis-
faction for the humiliations she was sub
jected to in 1870.

A FADED GLORY.

The last prop has been knocked from
under the greatness and mystery of Mars,
which henceforth must hang in the heavens
stark, dreary and inert, inspiring to war
no longer and dashing to earth the fondest
hopes of those dreamers of impossible
things who were preparing to establish
some sort of communication with our red
faced neighbor. For the latest astromoni-
cal research has proved in various ways, by
the spectroscope and otherwise, that
although Mars has an atmosphere, it is too
attenuated for the support of life similar
to that which obtains on earth. During
centuries the "snow-cap" on Mars has been
observed, and il has behaved identically as
that on the earth, increasing in the Marian
winter and diminishing to a speck in the
Marian summer; but as it is clear that the
atmosphere is too rare to support aqueous
vapor sufficiently dense for rain or snow,
the ''snow-caps" are assumed to be merely
successive layers of frost. Even Schiap-
arelli's terminated canals" are most likely
nothing but ridges of land.
A corollary of the extreme rarefaction
of the Marian atmosphere is that water
would boil there at temperature OF l2O

THE CHICAGO EPISODE.

From reports that come to US from all
sections of the Union it appears that Deco
ration day was more generally observed by
the people this year than ever before. AS
the war recedes into the distance OF the
past its true proportions become better
understood. The popular appreciation OF
it's Importance in the history of the coun-
try grows with time, and along with it
comes to the people truer comprehension
of the services of the Grand Army and a
profounder reverence for all that is signi-
fed in the solemn ceremonies of the day.
1t is significant fact at this very time
when the devotion of the people to the
great cause in which the Grand Army
fought is beyond all question, that the
citizens of the loyal city of Chicago should
have erected a monument to those who
bore arms against the Union, and dedl-
Gated it with great ceremony on Decora-
ton day. To those who Judge men and
events by the strict rules of logic nothing
could be more indefensible than this act.
How can loyalty give an equal honor to
those who saved the Union and those who
sought to destroy it? To the stern moralist
who holds all conduct subject to judgment
by the immutable laws of right or wrong
such question can be answered only in
one way; and yet it is beyond gainsaying
that the people of Chicago who Endorsed
that dedication by their presence were
animated by loyalty and a love for the
Union not less than ours.
Men are not actuated always by the
logic of the intellect. The sentiments of
the heart prompt sometimes to actions
which we feel to be good though reason
fails to justify them. 1t was doubtless
from the noble sentiment of Joy in the re-
stored Union and as symbol of fraternal
fellowship between North and South that
the monument was erected. 1t stands
as proof that the loyal North lives up to
the sentiment of s'malice toward none and
charity for all" and as such bears witness
that in the abiding devotion OF the people
to the Union there is willingness to show
lofty magnanimity to fallen foe.
1t would be a mistake to suppose that
this monument, which made so conspicu-
Gus feature of the events of Thursday,
will hold any permanent place in the OBJ
seryances of the day hereafter. For those
who fought to destroy the Union charity
means forgetfulness as well as forgiveness.
That monument will not long interest the
American people. From it they will turn
to those loftier monuments or to those
humble headstones that mark the graves
of those whom we SO appropriately call
"the Nations dead" Thither will the
youth OF the land be led generation after
generation to learn lessons of loyalty and
to be inspired for the performance of every
patriotic duty. There will the great ora
tons be pronounced on each returning
year. There will the people bear their
fairest flowers as symbols of their high re-
gard, and there will the Republic hold her
most sacred ceremonies in the observance
of Decoration day for all time to come

above the landscape are the fttest for the poet
and the artist, but the astronomer sometimes
prefers the orb that ascends the high heavens.
However, the most interesting phenomena of
the month will be the group of four planets
Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Mars-in the
northwest, especially as they are just about to
scatter on their various routes.
Ranged in the order named in slightly
curving line % degrees in length extending
obl1quely from point north of west, they can
be easily recognized, Mercury being nearest 10
the horizon. The expression of 4Tennyson
starry gemini," is very strikingly appropriate
at present, as they are all within the bounds of
that constellation.
Venus outspeeding Mars in their eastw ard
course will be in conjunction with 1t on June
b, when they may be seen al minutes of an arc
apart, but soon the smaller planet will be left
far behind, and before the middle of the month
both will have passed into the constellation of
the Lion.
1t Is not often that the retrograde motion OF
Mercury is SO conspicuous as on this occasion,
when it can be noted with reference to the
position of Jupiter. AS Mercury is also near
aphelion there is a two-fold reason why its
motion may be easily observed, for it remains
longer visible than usual. On June 4it will be
above the horizon for nearly two hours after
sunset.
This is called its greatest eastern elonga-
tion-that is, eastward from the sun.
Diagram 1 represents the strange loop
it describes on the heavens from the LIST
to the 30th; but it viii have refrigerated
into the obseuring sunlight before the
latter date. The arrows show the direction of
its motion, and the three orbs exactly on the
loop show its positions on the list, 9Th and 21st
of the month. The orb inside the curve is

THE SUNDAY +" CALL"

There are few things more beneficial in a
general way than to start the week with a
well-employed Sunday. The mind should
be refreshed and rested from thoughts of
work as well as the body from the exercise
of labor. To this end nothing conduces
more than good newspaper which to the
news of the day adds special articles on
topics interesting tointelligent readers and
instructive as well as entertaining.
Such a paper will be found IN the Sun
day CALL tomorrow. 1t contains among
other things two notable articles of travel
in out-of-the-way places of the earth-one
being narrative of wonderful Journey
across Alaska, with descriptions of some
of the characteristic features of our great
possessions in that country, and the other
an account of the Fiji Islands as they are
to-day. Another important article is an
interview with Hiram Maxim, in which
the great inventor gives large amount of
valuable information concerning warships,
big guns and fying-machines.
Appropriate to the memories awakened
by the recent celebration of Decoration
day is an account of General Rosecrans in
battle, in which some of the great events
of the war are described and the heroic
deeds of the Grand Army and its leaders
graphically pictured. The series of 'sIdvIs
of the Field" is continued in a charming
sketch of the work of bees busy with their
harvest in the gardens and fields In addi-
ton to these articles of travel, war and lit
erature, there is a varied miscellany of art.

accuracy of the Pacific Coast news, and

particular. Full justice is done also to the
news of the day in all parts of the world

Wednesday afford an outline of the course
he intends to pursue. First of all there
will be the general argument for harmony,
that the party cannot win if divided, and
that II the leaders have any faith in their
principles they should be willing to sink
personal differences. Next he seeks to get
rid OF the tight over the tariff by eliminat-
ing that question from the field of politics.
he declares positively it will not be an
issue IN the coming campaign. Finally,
he proposes to postpone the money ques-
ton If possible. He says it is a scientific
question on which opinions differ, but that
sentiment in favor of bimetallism is grow
ing SO rapidly in Europe we will only have
TO walt few years to attain it by inter-
national agreement
1t Will be seen that this is altogether a
platform OF postponement. Democratic
dlssenslons, tariff revision, the increase OF
the revenue and the return to bimetalllsm
are all to be laid over indefinitely until
Whitney makes his race. Truly, this
would be the pest platform Democracy
could adopt, but it would hardly stand the
pressure of a popular campaign. The
statesman who has no other policy than
that OF wait while,' will not find the
American people inclined to stop and stay
with him. There has been an evasion of
great issues long enough, and the leader
who will win in 1896 will be one who bids
the people go forward. Democrats may
possibly find comfort in Whitney's words,
but If they do it will be only because they
are tired of the struggle and wish to lie
down ana sleep for year or two.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-06-01
WHITNEY'S LEADERSHIP.

1t seems we are to be called upon in all
seriousness to look upon ex-Secretary
Whitney as the coming leader of the
Democratic party. Indeed from the tone
of our Democratic contemporary, the
Examiner, it might be inferred that he is
already the. leader. To him, and not to
the discredited man in the White House.
are we to turn for instruction as to the
plans and policies of Democracy, and
from what he says are we to draw con-
illusions of what the party platform will be
in 1896.
This condition of affairs is curious
illustration of the old saying that it Is
always the unexpected that happens.
Whitney has not only been long retired
from active politics, but for a consider
able time he has been out of the country.
While other Democrats were strenuously
fighting for the party during the last
campaign, and Hill with all the vigor in
him was Leading forlorn hope, Whitney
was resting in 'silken dalliance careless of
the calls that were made upon him for
help. The deserter in 1894 has come back
to be hailed as heaven-sent leader in
1895, and even the most stalwart Demo-
Gratis seem ready to bow down. and do him
honor.
If the Democrats choose to turn away
from the leaders who have borne the
brunt of battle in order to follow the man
who forsook them when they needed him
most it is their business and not ours.
Since they hail him as the leader we can
do no more than watch to see what the
new leadership promises.
The sentiments expressed by him in the
interview on his arrival in New York on
