BLOOD, IRON AND GOLD.

The historic phrase my royal cousin Is no
mere fiction In Europe at this time. Most or
the reigning families are intimately related to
each other by ties Of birth or marriage And
that fact Is often referred to as guarantee or
neace between the nations. A little observation
Is sufficient, however, to show how futile such n
guarantee is. For In the first place. sovereigns
do not always rule. Most wars are popular
wars and not a few have been irresistibly
forced upon the monarchs by the people King
George Of the Hellenes. for example. Is at the
present moment poweress beneath the stress
Of public sentiment. Doubtless he agrees with
that sentiment But II he did not. and tried TO
onnose and TO suppress It, he would probably be
swept from his throne by revolution. And
in the second place, the closest kinship between
soyereigns is not the slightest pledge of AMIGA
bic relations.
For instance, take the dynasties Of Great
Britain and Russia. In the last reign pefore the
present the Russian Empress was the sister OF
the Princess Of Wales. and the present empress
is granddaughter of Queen Victoria Yet an
IA gonism between the two realms has been I'M
concealed and these relationships nave done
nothing to allay 1t. Great Britain and Germany
are at loggerheads and the German Emperor is
personally particularly bitter FOE OF Ehgiano'
vet that Emperor is grandson of the English
Queen An equally impressive example 10 'he
same effect is given in the present case OF
Greece. King George is the brother OF the
Czar's mother and thus the Cars own uncle.
and Prince George is the Cars own cousin ana
was the savior of the Cars life; and the Crown
Princess, Sophia, is the German Emperors SIS
ter. Yet Russia and Germany are in this Crisis
the implacable foes Of Greece, and their enmty
IS due chiefly to the personal enmlty OF their
sovereigns
Blood counts for little in the iron game OF
war. The only thing that can match iron IS
gold 1t was we'll pointed out by writer IN last
sundays Tribune that the real bonds OF peace
in Europe are not marriage certificates nor reg
listers of birth but the literal bonds OF financiers
which represent the indebtedness OF the nations.
II the Turkish Empire is destroyed. who Will
nav the Turkish debt? That is the phase of the
Eastern question which is foremost IN the minds
Of many, and they not the least influential of

The hosts OF Reform In Chicago are divided
into two hostile camps, which fight each other
with much more zeal than they do the common
enemy In joint debate between the two lead
ers the other day. Alderman Harlan scored
point by asking, why does not Mr.. Hesng give
''us conclusive proof Of his own courage by cut
ting off his whiskers and meeting the people
face to face" Mr.. Harlan Is an old Princeton
centre rush and he evidently believes In the "N"
trick the flying wedge and other mass plays OF
humor. Washington Hesing without his whis-
kers would not be Washington Hesng. any more
than Samson without his hair was Samson. Mr.
Hesing's whskers are not Of the pointed pendu-
lous variety affected By Populists and venerable
goats indicative In both of an Unsuitable appetite
for paper and baser metal, whether silver or tin
cans They bristle magnifcently from the broad
area OF the check and are divided by mighty
chasm at the chin. Mr.. Harlan is on dangerous
ground for they are the pride and Joy of Chica-
70 and the playmate OF the prairie cyclone. At
his gibes the people Of Chicago or cyclone of the
plains may arise and smite him. Anyway he will
probably not be able on the day Of the polling to
tell which il was that struck him.
