RUSSIA AND FRANCE.

The spcctacular episode Of the week Is the
visit Of Nicholas II of Russia 10 ihc French
Republic. which was begun yesterday morning
amid most auSpicious circumstances. PROB
ably il is the chief episode of that Kind OF me
whole year. :ls well as of the week for noihlhg
hitherto has matched il, or Is likely hereafter
TO match IT, in scenic Splendor in popular cii'
thusiasm and ia all III. elements which com
posr great international festival. The Car
has visited the courts OF ihc grcaicsi three SOW
creigns of Europe bmt has had 10 reception
comparable with that which the bourgeois Re
public gives him France has had many gala
DAYS since her wear of mourning. but none
rivallng this which she makes in honor oi an
alien monarch who. in political and social
spirit. stands at Der very aniipodcs In those
respects the occasion is unique.
What dreams of closer alliance with the
Northern Power. and of thus facilitated rr-
venge upon the hated Teu'on. may bc indulgcd
IN on the Seine. must bc left 10 speculation.
No doubt such dreams exist. such hopes are
cherished. Looking upon them apart from
bunting and fireworks and brass bands. they
seem doomed TO disappointment. IL the Car
had come 10 France. and to France alone. such
dreams might well come true. But he has not.
He visited first the court Of his chief rival in
Southeastern Europe. next that Of France
dearest foe. and third that Of that island
Power which all the Continent seems partly To
fear partly to hate Al each and I'LL OF these
his dcmcanor WAS cordial. almost confidential.
II is scarcely conceivable that on such Il
swinging roun,' the circle" he should have any
serious political purpose. or that hc should
now i'm France plot mischief against those who
have been his hosts for the last few weeks.
For the disappointment Of such dreams. how
ever. France will not be without consolation;
nor without ample repayment for all the hos
piIality and enthusiasm she is avsliing upon
her imperial visitor This day is day of
singular triumph for France and especially for
the French Republic. For twenty-five years
the Republic because il is Republic. has been
boycoted by the European monarchicS. In all
that time not one European sovereign has
dcgncd officially Ia visit il. or socially I" r"cog-

THE NODEPN PRINTING PRESS.

I, was fortunate for The Tribune-frOm n cam
paIgn point of view--that the increasing demand
upon its press-room every day. in consequence
of the growth OF Daily circulation. particularly
OF the Ncw-Jcrsey. Brooklyn and Sunday cdi-
tlons compelled it to add TO its already large
equipment a now quadrupie press. ,by which the
capacity ~ the pressroom has bean Increased by
5000 eight-pase papers per hour The new ma
chinery has proved to be great help In enabling
this office To give prompt service to its new
friends in Ncw-Jersey and Brooklyn; but II has
been simply invaluable In aiding to meet the
demand from remote points for The Weekly
Tribune. The latter issue was taxing The Trib-
une press room To the utmost. because. in ad-
dtion To the Daily paper. the office was com
PEELED tn bring OUT. I'm the space OF II few hours,
from 10000 TO 10000 copies of a twenty pa &c
Weekly The circulation FOR over a year past
had ranged between those figures and stood,
when the campaign opened in June last at l69
OUO. Since then the circulation has been going
up by bounds on orders from all parts Of the
Union. until now II stands at 242,GCO copies. with
a continual growth from week To week.
To print a great Daily issue and In addition 10
bring out nearly a quarter OF a million copies
OF the Weekly. in time to catch the special fast
mails on the day Of issue. is a thing which a few
years ago would have been considered as fan
tastically impossible as any story In the Arabi-
an Nights Nothing makes the achievement
possible now except the wonderful development
i'm rapid printing machinery and the large sup
ply OF fast presses which The Tribunes regular
business compelled 1t To install The scene In
the mailing department Of this office on Weekly
night" when twenty tons OF one edition OF The
Tribune are received. freshly printed. from the
busy basement below. and an extraordinary
force OF men are working at the top OF their
speed To keep up with the presses. addressing
each copy separately with printed labels applied
bv swift patented devices, and wrapping the
papers singly or In clubs. is now one OF the most
interesting In New York City.
New-York tribune., 1896-10-06
MR.. BRYAN AT MEMPHIS.

In a speech at Memphis yesterday Mr. Bryan.
by way of attesting his devotion TO free silver.
said: Il would without moments hesitation
"resgn nv nominations in favor Of any person
..jn this country who can better carry this cause
ITO victory" 1t may possibly be suggested by
nersons who take superficial view Of things
that there Is a note Of Encouragement in this
virtual offer on the part OF Mr.. Bryan to with
draw from the Presidential race upon the pro-
duction OF a filter candidate for POpocratic votes.
We do not take that view or the matter. for
though IL may reasonably be suspected that "a
certain fearful looking for of Judgment occa-
siopally gets the better Of his vanity we do not
believe he is capable Of imagining that his s'-
peror for all the purposes OF an electoral contest
has been or ever will be. born into this vale OF
tears. Again. we should not be surprised If some
discouraged Popocratic commentator on current
events reading Mr. Bryans suggestion OF retire
ment. should advise him TO toss chip into the
next crowd he addresses and recommend the III
dvdual whom it chances 10 lit to the National
Committee as his successor, inasmuch as 1t could
not fail 10 fall upon more suitable candidate
than the nominee. But such advice would DE
flppani pert and, as we are inclined TO 'hlnk
radically unsOund. II is probably true that MY
BRYAN loses votes every time he opens his mouth
bu, who shall say that another candidate in his
Mace would not have lost more? When You
come TO think Of It, il anybody likes that sort OF
man Bryan Is jus, about the sort of man he
is sure 10 like And II the PopOcrats had a
different nominee and had succeeded in putting
him under bonds to hold his peace until after the
I'd of November. or had even gone so far rs to
choose a deaf mute for a standaId-bearcr. there
ia nothing about the management OF their cam
naign ND 10 date to prove that Jones. Sinjun and
the rest would have made better job OF 1t. No
We do not believe that Bryan wants To with
draw. even in his lucid intervals. or that he has
ever thought of a possible substitute. or that
ANYBODY else would better fit the party and the
platform.
In the same speech in which Bryan safely dis
ayowed personal ambition he uttered several
sentences with which we are in hearty agree
ment. Here they are: 1T Is not a time TO SCI
.pcrsonal interests above the public good. 1t i
"nOt a time when we are to consider the tempo
..rary effect of this election upon party organiza
"tIon. II Is n time when We are to consider The
effect of the gold standard If perpetuated not OF
.party organizations, not on this country alone
..bur on all mankind" And because the ISSUE
far transcends any personal claim or party nd
vantage. II Ia a time to prove to all the worlt

A press report from Washington says
that Mr.. Northway of Ohio has intro
duced in the House a bill directing the
Secretary of Agriculture to establish
six silk, fax and Tamie experimental
stations, TO be located one in the mid
die states, one in the northwestern
states, one at Washington, one in the
north Pacific coast states, one in the
south gulf states and one on the Pacific
coast. The bill provides that the work
at the stations shall be carried on by
appolntees of the Secretary of Agricul-
ture. For some time experiments in
growing ramie have been going on in
the public grounds of Washington, and
it has been shown conclusively that
ramie can be grown successfully in this
latitude, three crops Of excellent quality
having been grown the past summer
at the botanical gardens, and the prod
uct is now on exhibition in Washington.
