A New England Welcome.
(BOSton JOurnal.)

If the North Atlantic coast in the
vicinity of Boston tipped down last
night. nobody was aware of it,
The Boy Orator of the Platte has
found, as greater men than he have
found before him. that it takes a good
deal to unsettle the foundations of our
old city. the home of Webster and
Choate and Everett and Phillips and
Sumner. There was room for good
many people here besides Mr.. Bryan.
and though Boston as a whole scarcely
went wild over his presence, it showed
its breeding in the decorous and respect
full manner of his reception.
Even if his views are wholly and
unalterably wrong, the regularly chos-
en- candidate of a great political party
for the august office of President of the
United States is entitled to a fair hear
ing before his fellow citizens. 1t is
right and proper that the very fact of
nomination for that office should in
itself confer a certain title of distinc-
ton. Here in New England Mr.. Bryan
ccnfessedly feels that he is on unfamil-
lar ground. He has himself referred
to it as the enemies country y
If he is uncomfortable here let it be
from no fault of ours. but let entire
courtesy attend him wherever he goes.
New England detests Mr.. Bryan's
principles. Vermont has shown that
Maine has shown it: Massachusetts
will show it with even greater en-
phasis when it gets an opportunity.
New England cannot accept the per-
sonal estimate of MIR. Bryan himself

Madagascar in Rebellion.

The French are having in Madagascar
an experience not unlike that of the
English in Rhodesa. The tribes for
| merly subject to the Hovas are in re-
bellion and the country between An
tananarivo and the sea on all sides is
| reported to be dominated by armed
bands. These bands are supplied with
Schneider & Remington rifles They
haunt the wooded regions and fall upon
the conveys on their way from the coast
to the capital. Near the capital the
Fahavalos are very active and bold
They are Savages in effect, hacking the
bodies of the wounded they capture,
only stopping short of scalping them.
In the northern part of the island the
situation is at it's worst. Some 10000
are there in arms against the French
In the south the Sakalava are going
over to the rebels who infest the route
from Mananjary to Fianarantsoa. The
French call them all ''rebels" and they
are rebels legally, since Madagascar
has been formally annexed and become
part of the French Republic, but they
are for all that mere Savages and have
no idea of being French citizens The
situation is due to the shattering of
the power of the Hovas. who held the
savages in subsection. or at least en-
forced some sort of order. Now the
Hoyas are suspected of stimulating
rebellion and supplying the rebels with
arms and powder. The result is that
the French civil administration is par
alyzed and the troops at the capital
are in serious danger Like the Eng
lish in Rhodesia, the French thought
that when they had overthrown the
existing powers they would be them
selves masters of the eountry-an ex-
| pensive mistake.

This fight is between the people on
one side, the producers of wealth, the
defenders of our country against the
prosperous classes, as we are told by the
other party. the moneyed powers and
their allies in Europe, need not tell you
when such parties are arrayed against
each other, who will win There is only
one question between the parties There
are only two parties today. one for the
people, one for the producer, one for the
labor of this country: the other for
the gold standard. which is behind the

Just how that part of Mr. Sewalrs
speech will impress the people of
Maine, who are at least somewhat ac-
quainted with his career, no individual
can say but it seems from the above
utterances that Mr.. Sewall's politics
are as utterly devoid of principle as a
poll parrot is lacking in moral re-
sponsibility. Mr.. Watson could not
have made a more fragrant bid for the
Populistic and anarchistic vote of this
country than did Hon. Arthur Sewall
in that speech in Boston. 1t is well
known fact that while Mr.. Sewall was
ready politically to endorse and aid the
free trade propaganda he was one OF
the first to seek protection in his own
business. 1t now appears that he

4 Glimpse Behind the Scenes.
(Boston Transcript.)

Here is some more news by private
letters from Constantinople such as
does not get to the public through the
corrupt news agencies subsidized by the
sultan. 1t is story that can easily
be disproved, if false: 1t is learned
from very reliable authority that dur
ing the Constantinople massacre the
Russian charge d'affaires. while riding
through the streets to see with his own
eyes what was happening, came across
Turkish official who had just killed
an Armenian, and who was hacking
his poor victims head The Russian
official ordered his cavases to arrest
the man and take him to the police
station. The chief of police refused to
put him under arrest. Then they
drove him to the palace When he
reached there, the guard recognized
the arrested official and presented arms
to him The Russian charge d'affaires
discovered that the man he had arrested

few years the Figaro has been a sub

of the sultan and his government. The
Figaro could not honestly and con-
scientiously defend the most inhumau
deeds of the Turks and evidently re-
fused to receive any longer the tempt

ounces to the pound he will not sell on
a basis of eight ounces. That would
