Mr.. Richard Olney.
THE MAN WHO REVERSED THE ADMINS
TRATION's FOREIGN POLICY.

THE MAN WHO REVERSED THE ADMINS
TKATION'S FOREIGN POLICY.
Truth requires us to say that Mr.. Cleve-
lands secretary of state has become one
of the most interesting figures in Ameri-
can politics. The rapid increase of his
reputation as a statesman and a man of
conviction, initiative, and force, is a
phenomenon of the time. For thirty
days Mr.. Olney's fame has been growing
like Jacks beanstalk, but with good
prospect of permanency in the altitude
attained.
Here is a gentleman, regarded until
quite recently as a shrewd corporation
lawyer and an expert at lawn tennis, who
suddenly develops qualities such as mark
the heroes of whom nations are proud.
He has attempted and achieved the thing
that seemed impossible. He has reversed
the whole foreign policy of the admins
tration. He has blotted out the gnominy
of his predecessors reoord of subser-
vience and surrender. In firm tones he
has dictated Americanism to a cabinet
wherein there have been few in the past
who dared to speak above whisper. He
has mastered will that was supposed to
break every time before bending; and
with no beating of drums, but we are
sure, with profound inner satisfaction,
has marched the President back into the
American camp, where the headquarters
of an American President properly are.
Two months ago the recital of this
achievement would have sounded like the
story of a miracle. If it is a miracle, Rich
ard Olney is a worker of miracles.
We present our compliments and re-
spectful salutations to the Springfield
Republican, a journal which, months in
advance of any other Mugwump, Demo-
cratic, or Republican newspaper, inform
ed the people that the Hon. Richard
Olney of Massachusetts was a patriot and
a person of Independent intellectual
energy. New York Sun.

every civilized people Of antiquity and
almost innumerable nations OF barbarians-
SO many. in truth, that the Romans did not
know all the names Of conquered tribes
