THE KAISER AS AN ORATOR.
Ho Favors the Nation with Two Charac.
tcristic Addresses Prince Bismarck Ig-
norcd-A Peculiar Speech at tho Dinner

Berlin, Feb. 23-The emperor favored
the nation with two of his characteristic
oratorical performances last week. The
first and most noticeable one was given
on Thursday upon the occasion of the
annual dinner given by the governor of
Brandenburg to the members of the
Brandenburg diet, a function which his
majesty always graces with his pres
ence and platitudes. on this OCCASION
apropos of the silver jubilee of the en-
pire the kaiser after making flowery
and sentimental references to heavens
special grace to the empire and the i'm
perial house, proceeded to inculcate in
the minds of his hearers the lesson Of
the duty of the nation in the future.
What we have witnessed" said his
majesty, and what has been effected,
we owe solely to the great Emperor
William and his trust in God. The en-
tire celebrations i'll commemOratlon or
the Victories Of German arms, which
We're held in 1898. eliminated in the
glOritication of his personality, which
has become nothing less than holy to
us. 1t is our sacred duty To preserve
his personality and hallowed memory
against all comcrs."
The kaiser's adSlation of his grand
father has never run to greater lengths
| than upon this occasion, nor has his eN-
cluSion of all reference to Prince Bis
| marck and the eX-chancelOrS CO.
workersin the foundation of The empire
been more marked. Nevertheless his
ma jeSty's utteranCeS were dutifuly
| and fervently acclaimed.
Regarding the Navy.
| The address delivered by the emperor
upon the occasion of his swearing in
of the naval recruits at Wilhelmshaven
on Friday was modelled after his re-
| marks upon similar occasions in the
past Speaking of the German navy
the kaiser said that although 1t was
small as compared with the navies of
! some of the other powers, 1t was still
| in progress of growth. The absence
from his remarks of anything more en-
! couraging to the hopes of the ChauNin-
! lists than the foregoing utterance caused
| great disappointment, especially to
| those who are eXerting every possible
| effort to extend the colonial posses
| sions of Germany. Those standing
foremost in the endcavor to forward
! Germany'S colonial interests nave EN-
tered into an agitation for an unlimited
| increase of the German navy.

affairs. He has for a long time been
working for this, and has nearly seen
the consummation of his plans. This
announcement will create a great SEN
