LAFAYETTE's FAMOUS VISIT.
There Wac Great Excitement over Hi,
Trip TO the United States.

There Was Great Excitement over His
Trip to the United states.
Jean Fraley HaIlowell, who writes
in The Ladies Home Journal Of when
Lafayette Rode Into Philadelphia, -
says that it is difficult to understand
at this late day what a furore Of ex-
element passed over this country when
Lafayette arrived once more in Amer,
lea. The visit is a historic event 10 be
remembered while memory endures
During President Monroe's second adj
ministration the United States extended
its invitation 10 Lafayette. He arrived
at Staten Island on Aug Is Sunday,
1924, accompanied by his son, George
Washington Lafayette, and also by his
son-in-law. A formal reception took
place on the following day, the first
fruits of the most abundant harvest Of
welcome which Lafayette was TO receive
during his year Of travel through the
United States.
Lafayette was ca years old when he
visited America as the nations guest
and carried his years lightly. His head
was shaped like that Of Buns. He had
high forehead, long, aquiiine nose
and "A rather thin face. His hair was
sandy and quite plentiful. His eyes
were dark gray. restless and twinkling.
his eyebrows light in color, hut heavily
marked. His mouth was firm, and his
lips smiled courteousIy at the holiday
crowd assembled To do him honor. The
general was not very tall, but well
made. bis face was distinctly pleasant,
and its expression was an odd mixture
of shrewdness, decision and gay coed
humor. His costume was a swallow
tailed coat and trousers of dark brown,
with great display of white waistcoat
and neckcloth. A bunch of seals hung
from broad black ribbon at his waist.
Over his shoulders hung a cloth riding
cloak, greenish blue in color and lined
with red.

POLITICIANS ARE DAZED.
Patronage of Greater New York
Makes Their Mouths Water

New York, Aug. 13.-The patronage
that goes with the Greater New York
is simply stupendous. There will be
10000 offices and placeholders in the.
consolidated metropolis, so members of
the assembly, % senators, IA members
of congress, from 5000 to 1000 men
working for contractors on city work,
an equal number serving the federal
government, or a total of close to so, 900
political or Semi-political places in this,
the second largest city in the world.
With 1000 election districts, there will
be 5000 election officers each year, and
every election will cost close to 81 000,-
600. 1t is expected that 600, 900 votes
will be polled in the November election,
SO that 10 per cent of the voters will
hold public or Semi-pubIic places.
Some of the politicians are dazed by
the possibilities of the patronage that
will go with the control of the govern
ment of the consolidated city. The civil
service regulations will, of course, pro-
tect the majority of placeholderS, but it
IS estimated that among the 10000 city
employees 10000 can be changed next
year, and that in the four years term
of the mayor to be elected it will be
possible to place 5000 new men in the
service of the city. The number of
employees in each department will be in
extension of streets and the making of
other public improvements will provide
places for hundreds of men, who will
receive SO day for every day of serv-
ice. Most of these places go to law
yerS.
All the outlying villages and towns
which come into the city, it is expect
ed, will begin to clamor for public i'm
provements as soon as the first mayor
is inaugurated, and every piece of work
undertaken means more or less patron
age for the party in power. The budget
for the greater city, it is estimated, will
be not less than $4,000. 900 the first year
and it may grow to 800, 100000 in a few
years Greatness comes high, but New
Workers cPy for it.

ANDREWS is BACKED up
By the Congregaticnalist, Religious
Magazine, With Leaning to
Gold,

Boston, Mass, Aug. 13.-Under the
title Reasonable Liberty for Teach
ers, the Congregationalist the well
known religious magazine, publishes
leading article on the Brown univer-
SIty troubles, taking a surprising stand
for an organ with confessed lean1ngS
for gold. The article follows IN part;
we have already expressed our judg-
ment concerning the resignation OF
President Andrews of Brown universe
ty. Subsequent events have not led us
to change our position. But the pro-
test issued last week by number of
the professors of that institution
against the action of the trustees Which
led the president to resign so forcibly
states the principle involved as to call
for further comment We do not see
that the reply of Congressman j. H.
Walker in behalf of the trustees in any
degree invalidateS the force OF this pro-
test. Indeed, at least one of them dis
claims agreement with Mr.. Walkers
statements.
have placed themselves squarely on the
ground that its president ought not to
support the leading plank in the plat
form adopted by the Democratic party
in the recent political campaign. Their
reason is that those opposed to that
platform will withhold gifts from the
university
THE professors in their protest, state
that nearly all of them are opposed to
President Andrews views on the free
coinage of silver. So is the Congrega-
lIO]ldllSl ollIl, II is a question OIL pup
lie policy, demanding discussion. Ed
ucated young men especially ought to
understand it. They ought to know all
that can be said in its favor as well as
against it. A university whose faculty
, is required to be united concerning any
important subject upon which public
opinion is divided is no place for
young man who seeks to be educa ted
into intellectual independence. Funds
for a university given under such con-
ditiOn would better be withheld.
we believe that the position of Prof.
Andrews on the question of free silver
! is wrong. We are sure that his posi-
| ton on the question of freedom in edu-
| cation is right. We rejoice in the manly
| protest of the professors who support
| him.
Let young men and women be
| taught that they will find truth best
| by looking at great questions fairly on
! all sides. Let professors, presidents
and trustees frankly speak their minds
| and give their reasons for differences of
| views.
1.-THE purpose of the college is not to
| bring its scholars to membership in any
| one religious denomination or political
| party, or to keep them there. The real
! benefactOrS of educational institutions
| would not throw away their money to
| promote the continued dominance of o
! creed which it is the purpose of educa-
| ton to improve upon, or to a party
| which experience may show has out
| lived its usefulness.
| Let US educate men and women to
| independent judgment, founded on COM
| petent minds and unassailable integ-
! rity, and trust in God to move men and
! women of that sort to furnish the nee
| essary funds"

REPUBLICAN LUCK.
That's What Senator John P Jones
Calls the Gold Discoveries.

New York, Aug. Ex-senator John P.
Jones of Nevada, who is spending a
vacation in this city, said yesterday
that continued fall in the price of sill
yer ought not to surprise anyone. Sill
Yer is falling in common price, he said
because of the falling off of the de-
mand for it as money. Japan has gone
onto gold basis and so lessened the
demand for silver. Besides this there
has been, because of universal hard
times, great falling off in purchases
in the east. The Oriental countries
use silver money apd our purchases are
paid for in that metal. The demand
has been cut off by reason of the hard
tines
OF the increase in gold production, in
Alaska, Mr.. Jones said:
L am not opposed to prosperity
through an increase in gold. The Re
publicans are very lucky and congrat-
ulate them on the fact that this great
discovery falls within their administra-
ton. I believe a great deal of gold
will be found in Alaska and it is GER
tain to restore prosperity, for which the
Republicans will claim and receive the
credit. I shall welcome it's return,
whether through gold or silver Much
glorification and congratulation is
heard over the fact that our western
wheat is going up to a dollar because
and other countries 1 do not like to
think that our prosperity is founded
upon restitution and starvation in for
eign nations. L want to have a flood
OF money turn the idle mill wheels and
1rr1gate the waste plains of our land.
Another result that will follow from
an abundance of money, be it silver or
gold, will be allegiance of this hatred
of the trusts. The people hate trusts
and only prosperity will drive monopL
money will crush out the trusts. They
flourish only in hard times
