At his New Years reception Emper- or William was frigid in his treatment of British Ambassador Sir Francis C.. Lascelles. On the other hand, the emperor's reception of the United States ambassador, MT. Theodore Run yon, was most cordial. Incidentally this has helped Germany to view the British-American difficulty with diff ferent eyes. The anxiety in Berlin to take part in the American loan shows this. Bankers of Berlin, Cologne and Frankford fell over each other in their haste to have a share in it and the United States embassy was over whelmed throughout the past week with enquiries as to the precise terms of the loan, proving conclusively that American credit is unimpaired in the German money market

THE ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC

Again comes the grey old rumor that the Southern Pacific is scheming to eucher the Santa yF7e out of the Atlantic and Pacific. The authority is that of a Chicago paper and is as follows:
 1.-The Atchison organization com mittee claims the Atlantic and Pacific is not worth the amount of the first mortgage bonds, $1S,0OO,OOO. Half that amount is all they consider it worth. They offered, it is understood, the first mortgage bondholders 50 cents on the $1 This amount would probably have been accepted and the foreclosure by the old receivers would have taken it's course had not the Southern Pacific held out more favorable inducements to the first-mortgage bondholders.
 "'The Atchison reorganization com mittee had in mind, no doubt, just such a contingency as has arisen when it framed its reorganization plan two years ago. The precaution taken two years ago by the committee will enable the Atchison to cheokmate the designs of the Southern Pacific monopoly and the first-mortgage bondholders. With the Atchison's competition for the pos session of the Atlantic and Pacific re- moved the Southern Pacific will hard ly bid in the road, as the Atchison peo- pie are willing to give in in the first place, and the first-mortgage bond holders will realize less than they would have received had they not been so avaricious and allowed the Atchison to foreclose the property.
 "The Southern Pacific, if 1t ge.s the Atlantic and Pacific even at a cheap price, will have a white elephant on it's hands, and at the same time will not
 
 succeed in forcing the Atchison out of California, for the latter will at once proceed to construct 8 new line from Albuquerque or some other point on it's line in New Mexico to The Needles, and thus secure a better connecting link between its line in New Mexico and its Southern California lines than it has had before.
 "A new road paralleling the Atlantic and Pacific from Albuquerque to The Needles will, it is estimated, cos: only about $S,OOO,OOO. The distance is $40 miles, and a road can be built for S15,- 900 a mile. This is Jess than one-half of the par value of the first-mortgage bonds of the Atlantic and Pacific. It is the reason why the Atchison people have decided to let the first-mortgage bondholders take the property and foreclose it as they may deem best"

A Republic engraving presents St.. Louis as an athletic young man, girdled with the motto: Nothing i'm possible Off this gallants ankles have been broken the shackles of 'old fogy- ism,' 'sloth" and "overcaution." His sword represents St. Louis financial solidity' and on the shield is inscribed commercial integrity,' progress and prosperity" All this is very nice. We are glad to know that the Mound City, is at last awakened from it's Rip Van Winklan sleep. It had slumbered so long and the grass had grown so tall in i.s streets that the world had supposed the city was as Cincinnati. Inasmuch as 1896 is a leap year, no doubt Chicago's hand some T will'' maiden will be acourt- ing the coy St. Louis youth.

ENGLAiND'S ISOLATION.

England is isolated, lonesome, 'bereft. No friends has she, nobody loves her and she is forlorn. Her rapacity in conquest have not aroused admiration among her sister nations and her ar rogance has not contributed to bring to her admirers. Even Germany, headed by Victoria's grandson is as violent as Britain's daughter across the brine and like Ishmael of old the Island Queen is an outcast among na- tions.
 Anent the Transvaal matter late dispatch says that if any such proof was necessary, the events of the past week have once more tended to estab- fish beyond any doubt the cold isola- tion of Great Britain But the anti British comments of the foreign press have been so bitter since the invasion of Transvaal republic. by the filibuster- CT, Dr. Jameson, with or without the knowledge of the British South Africa company and colonial authorities, that this feature of the situation has pro- duced a decided sensation which has culminated in an outburst of indigna- tion against Emperor William. for sending his dispatch of congratulation to President Krueger. Emperor Wil- liam it appears, first sent peremptory instructions to the German ambassador here to obtain an immediate explana- tion of the meaning of Dr. Jameson's s expedition, which by the way the Brit ish government had already repudi- ated. This having been explained to of Salisbury concluded that the matter had been settled and he was disagreea- ply surprised when news was received at the foreign office that the emperor had sent a dispatch of ngratulation to President Krueger.
 The most serious part of the. whole matter is that diplomats attribute to Emperor William a deliberate at tempt to challenge the queens su- Zerainty in the Transvaal.
 The Standard, which may be regard ed as directly representing the views of the British government, speaks very plainly on the subject and warns for eign nations in general, and Germany particularly, that Great Britain will tolerate no interference and that ir spite of the threats of German officials and press to make things unpleasant for Great Britain at Washington, Con. stantinop1e and Pekin, eve shall de- fend our own with all means at oul disposal, let our assailants be who they will, or as many as they will''
 The St. James Gazette thinks Elm peror Williams message to President Krueger of the Transvaal, like Presi- dent Cleveland's message to congress is 8 warning which should not be dis regarded, and furnishes evidence of a combination of movers against Great Britain. Continuing the St. James Ga zette urges the British government tt drop the Armenian cause, and making an alliance with Russia, close an un- derstanding with the Dreiband, and in any. case, push on with her arma- ments with unsleeping energy.

this: No peddler

Remember this: No peddler
does anything to help the town.
He gives nothing to schools or
churches, or public enterprise. He
pays no taxes. He has nothing in
common with our people. He can
swindle you-often does, and you
can't help yourself. He has no
store down the street to which you
can return goods that are not up to
the new sample. The itinerant
merchant has no reputation to sus-
tain. He can cheat you with inn
punity. The home merchant is and
does different. He bears his share
of the expense of good government.
When a subscription paper is passed
he is the first approached. He
builds house which enhonces the
value of all property. He helps
pay for the church in which you
worship, and the school to which
you send your children. He can
not afford to misrepresent his goods
or swindle.-Ex.

A discussion has been going the
rounds of the press suggesting the
propriety of dropping, in letter
writing, all superduous words like
"Mr." Mrs" and "Col." both from
the inside and outside of letters,
as also "My Dear Sir" at the be-
ginning and "Yours Truly at the
winding up. 1t is said that all of
such conventionalities have long
since been dispensed with in tele-
grams on account of being too ex-
pensive, but that would hardly be
q good reason for such radical and
sweeping reform in letter writing.
Common courtesy demands the re-
tention of some such formally
even at the expense of brevity.
The idea Of this reform. however,
does not originate with the pre-
sent age. 1t was Jefferson, we be-
lieve, when the "father of his
country" was troubled about ques-
tions of ceremony and etiquette
and sought advice from his friend,
who said: Il hope that the terms
Excellency, Honor, Worship, Es-
quire and Mr.. shall surely and
forever disappear from among us."
