The Degeneracy of the Senate.

Not long ago Senator Hoar PERSONAL
ly listened to most conclusive evidence
of the degeneracy of the senate. Dur
ing the discussion of the resolutions
providing for the recognition of the
sovereignty of the Republic of Cuba"
when senator's were mad with lingo
frenzy and sober-minded people were
apprehensive, Secretary Olney con-
temptuously remarked that the recogni-
ton of sovereignty was none of the
senate's business. It was exclusively a
presidential prerogative and he very
plainly intimated that the president
would pay no attention to any resolu-
tons relating to Cuban recognition
which the senate might be pleased to
pass. Immediately there was q great
rufiing of feathers among the senators.
The declaration of secretary of state was
denounced as an affront, an outrage
upon the senate's dignity, and an at
tempt to abridge its constitutional
powers. I do not know why Secretary
Olney chose the unusual medium of a
newspaper interview for this important
utterance but is probable that there
was at that moment no official channel
through which he could communicate
to the lingo senators the salutary and
needed information. The form and
manner, no less than the matter, of the
communication reused his and the
presidents enemies in the senate to
pitch of rage, in which they freely
exhibited themselves in full possession
of the passions and the factious spirit
from which the fathers fondly imagined
they would be free.

The New South will be less celebra-
ted in ballads, but better known in the
markets and exchanges of the world.
She has reused herself to grapple with
difficulties which no northern man can
fully appreciate without visit to her
soil. 1t would be impossible to exag.
gerate the prostration which prevailed
at the close of the war. Her citizens
were unaccustomed to labor, her labor
ers untitled for citizenship. Her capt.
tai had been consumed and her credit
disappeared, but her independence and
courage were indestructible. She asked
no sympathy, and she craved no in
diligence. She set herself painfully to
learn the hard lesson of toll and econo-
my, and slowly but surely the new life
is rising from the ashes of the old. In
her heroic struggle she will have the
love and admiration of every generous
soul, and our children will yet see
wealth and abundance flourish where
their fathers saw the ruin, desolation,
and havoc of war. -Chicago Inter

"Father Of Centennials.n

New York, April 29.-Colonel Jesse
E. PeytOn died at Haddonsfeld, N. j.,
early this morning.
Colonel Peyton was popularity known
as the 'father of centennials, because
it was he who conceived some of the
biggest celebrations of historical events
in the country.
Probably the first of these was the
centennial of American independence,
celebrated in Philadelphia in 1876.
Later celebrations proposed by him
were those of Bunker Hill, Yorktown,
the Constitutional and New York. His
latest scheme was the celebration in
1900 in Jerusalem of the birth of Christ
by all Christian nations. This latter
was the pet of his heart and he hoped
to live to see it come to successful frui-
ton. He was 80 years old.

TO FIGHT For GREECE.
Young American Volunteers Sailed From New
York,

York.
New York, May 2.-Twenty-six
American boys sailed on the steamship
La Gascogne this morning to fight for
Greece. The lads ranged from II to
90 years of age, and as they marched to
the pier ahead of four hundred Greeks,
who are returning to enlist in the war
against the Moslems, they were greeted
with the widest enthusiasm all along
the line. The lads are from New York,
Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, Mime
apolis, st. Paul and other cities. Cheers
were given for the stars and stripes,
which were borne at the head of the
Americans.
The lads will be supplied With uni
forms and guns when they reach Ath-
ems, where they will be mustered into
service.
The Greek patriots marched to the
pier with United States and Greek flags
at their head. They were greeted all
along the line of march with enthusi-
astic shouts and the factory hands left
their work when the Greeks marched
by and the young women operatives
threw flowers and kisses at the volun-
teers.
The French Line pier was crowded
when the little army of fighters went
aboard the ship. AS the steamer pulled
out the star spangled banners were
borne aloft beside the blue and white
standard of Greece.
