EVERYONE WAS GLAD.
The Whole Town Turns Out to Honor
the COnquerorx.--

II v =
The demonstration of citizens lasAl
team at the Astoria tournament was al
marvel of unanimity. 1t is not overesti- |
mating it to say that 5000 people were
QUO to welcome home the boys who won
the championship race. Strangers in
our city were amazed at such an express
sion of local pride. When the steamer
bearing the team was yet half mile
away there was set up such screech of
whistles, and explosion of anvil shots
that the din was almost deafening. TheI
boat whistle gallantly responded, and\
when she tied up at the dock the team
was greeted with such yell as must
have promoted a tingling of blood to
their finger tips. They we're soon seated
in the omnibus which had been prepared
for their reception, and which was gail3
adorned with ribbons and fowers1 While
Is1eing driven up they gave ample vent to
the pleasure the remarkable reception
had giving them by shouting:
Rah, hoo, rah.
II Rah, hoo, rix.
/ Dailes are champions
II Of96.
1 The yell of greeting was:
! Hi. hi, hi, hup!
II Here come our boys who won the cup
/ How sleek and nice they did them up.
/ The procession formed as follows:
III Mayor Menefee and Chief of Fire De-
apartment Fletch Faulkner.
II City band.
The victorious team.
4 The several hose carts OF the city,
drawn by citizens.

vThe procession marched to the East End

}, grand banquet was given by the house
| in their honor. Over hundred guests
sl were seated at the table and the enthu.
y siasm was unbounded. Toasts were
given by Mayor Menefee, Chief Faullz

LOCAL STRENGTH NOT THE FINAL TEST
In an effort to disparage the value OF the
services rendered in the late campaign by 'he
chairman of the Republican National Commit
tee. "Thc World calls attention to the elec-
ton returns from Cleveland. Mr.. Hanna $ nome
city, In 1899 it gave 10000 majority for the
Republican ticket this year. owing TO the LABOR
troubles Mckinley carried it by only 1900. AMI
orr cOntempOrary proceeds to argue infercn-
tally that this should be accepted the stand
ard Of Mr.. Hannas usefulness and influence.
The argument is based upon the theory. long
since exploded. that the strength OF politician
is his strength at home. 1t Is misleading
doctrine The weight OF evidence against 1t Is
so overwhelming that It's acceptance to-day Is
confined TO small-bcer politicians who never
look beyond the boundaries Of their districts ana
whose conceptions Of political success are entire
ly confined to immediate, small results Warner
Miller according to the rulings of the late Re
publican State Convention. had not sufficient
strength to be elected delegate from his own
county And yet he has represented this State
in Congress, in the United States Senate. in half
q dozen National conventions Of his party. and
was the unanimous choice for Governor on the
Republican ticket eight years ago. by which
standard shall Mr.. Miller be measured: BY
his achievements in State and National politics
or by the outcome of the Hcrkimcr contest as
Interpreted by the State Convention: Mr..
Hackett has been chairman Of the State Com
mittee for several years. He has given his
time and energies to the position. The State
has just rolled up an unprecedented majority
for the Republican party. But in the Twelfth
Ward Of Utica. where Mr. Iiackctt lives. his
candidate for Alderman was beaten by 2S0
votes. although McKnleys majority was over
500 Does any one insist that Mr.. Hackett shall
be Judged entirely by the result In his home
district? Only one vote was cast for the gold
Democratic ticket in the Albany district where
Senator Hill lives, but this will not cause any
sane man to underestimate the vigorous efforts
put forth by Mr.. Hill at Chicago.
The absurdity Of the contention might be IL
Illustrated indefinitely But ii is unnecessary.
Mr. Hanna's good work was not confined to
Cleveland or Ohio. or any one State or Terri
tory 1t was National in scope. National in cf-
feet, and will be judged by National standards

THE CHILDREN'S AID SOCIETY.

The annual report Of the secretary or the Ch'l-
dren's Aid Society is always record OF gocu
work modesty and faithfully performed. It's
account of the labOrs and results OF the las'
year. presented at tlp annual meeting yes'er-
day. is similar to the many that have preceded
it in the real eloquance of its statistics The
socicty's twenty industrial schools taught more
than 1900 children last year. great proportion
of whom would have been vagrants If it had
not sought them ont and brought them under
its care and instruction. During the year lS'4
children were transferred from these schools to
the public schools. their places being filled 1T
once In the societys overcrowded kindergar-
tens forty three teachers are in charge OF l,O,"
children: in its seven lodging houses 3.S'4 boys
and girls were received last year. and the bene!i-
cent operation of placing its wards in country
homes went steadily forward The magnitude
of the service performed by this department of
the societys work is indicated by the fact that
during the period of its existence 106.259 indi-
viduals have been so provided for. while the care
with which the transplantation has been accom-
plished is proved by its permanent results
Eighty per cent Of those removed answer the
society's expectations and become good citlzehs.
This is the merest suggestion Of what the So
cety does for its immediate benehciarles ana
through them for all others 1t is imposslpie
to estimate. or perhaps TO ovcrestimatc, the sum
of good which has proceeded from the physical.
moral and mental elevation of this multitude OF
unfOrtunates Such a work deserves to be am
ply srstaned-to be better sustained than it ever
has been Though the society has long possessed
the confidence of all familiar with it. and though
its supporters are many and generous. 1t could
use a much larger revenue than ii receives. We
commend II now. as we have often done before,
TO the readers of The Tribune.

JONES IS BACK.

Jones has returned TO Washington Jones Of
Arkansas. chairman of the late POpocratc Ma
tiOnal Committee and Dispenser of General JOY
in the late campaign. He Is fresh from the Mis-
souri, hunting park and game preserve lately
made famous by the prOwess OF William Jen-
nings Bryan, who either with his own gun or
his mouth succeeded in killing a rabbit and
brought down a doe. He Is not now exuding
information with the c0piousness and gush
which made him the delight Of newspaper CORE
spondcnts and an unfalling source of amllse-
ment to the general public during the campaign.
1t was not to be expected. of course. that he
could keep up that killing pace for any great
length of time But there is this to be said: that
he Yields mp without any show Of reluctance
such information as he has left. and that more
of it Is so than there was in the entire issue
during the campaign.
Realizing the intense interest felt by the OPP
pressed masses in every movement Of their great
champion and prospective deliverer, and espe-
cially in his late hunting trip, Jones made it his
first business in resnming communication with
the public 10 explain why Mr. Bryan had not met
with greater success. But he says, the trip.
while not satisfactory from the gamebag stand
point. was eminently successful as health
restoring scheme. In explanation of the fail
ure to bag much game he says: "The leaves
were so dry that it was impossible, owing to
1.-THE noise Of the rustic, TO get within quarter
"Of mile Of a deer" But. he added, "it's an
ideal place for a hunt" This. no doubt, is Mr..
Bryans own view. 1t corresponds precisely
with what appeared TO be a positive conviction
with him when. at the beginning Of the late
campaign. he came East and travelled through
New-England as, far as Maine; that the ideal
place for hunt Is where you can't get within a
quarter Of mile Of your game. He had better
luck in Missouri. though. than he did In New.
England. for, as shown by the returns, in New.
