SCENE AT THE PRESIDENTS STAND


Features OF the Parade Noted - IL Passed
In Review-Night Display.
The presidents reviewing stand &C.
cupied two-thirds OF the front of the
White House grounds. It was a solidily
built and finished structure. carefully
designed and tastefully decorated. The
background was white. the columns
were twined with green. and the ma
tional colors in floating, woven and
draped designs were the chief ornament.
The stand seated 1000. The president
stood in a projected area, shielded by
glass. The audience was notable in all
Its elements. The official life of the ma
ton was represented. The ambassadors
and ministers Of all nations honored the
occasion.
The parade was q famous column not
ably commanded. General Horace Por-
ter, grand marshal. at its head, recalled
TO all veterans the campaigns Of Grant,
his chief Following his numerous and
brilliant STAFF. upon which the sons of
Presidents Grant, Hayes, Garfield, Ar
thur and Harrison were prominent fig
ures. came General Granville M. Dodge.
commanding the first grand division.
which embraced all the military organ
fzations Of the parade. His presence
and that Of his staff brought wildly to
mind the old army Of Grant and Sher-
mantle Army Of the Tennessee. With
General Dodge. who commanded one of
Its corps. and now president of its So
ciety. and General Hickenlooper, of its
artillery. and corresponding secretary of

war passed through it from fields OF
renown to their homes. 1t was fitting
that the war and navy building should
be deliberately decorated to greet q col.
umn where the regular troops ordered
here by Secretary Lamont and the nu-
merous and interesting body of seamen
present by order Of Secretary Herbert
formed so large an element of the mill
tary display.

The temper of the Republicans is
shown by the snub given Gov. Altgeld,
at the Inauguration of Gov. Tanner.
1t has always been customary to per-
NIT the retiring executive to deliver a
farewell address. Gov. Altgeld had
prepared his speech, it had been ac-
corded place on the printed pro-
gramme, and he was on the platform
for its delivery, accompanied by his
wife. A motion to recognize the order
of exercises and listen to the address
was ruled out of order by the President
of the joint assembly, and an adjourn
ment was soon taken, with the evident
intent to perpetrate the insult. Inas-
much as Gov Altgeld ran far ahead of
the State ticket at the general cleo
ton, the snub is of his party as well
as himself. The course of the Repub-
licans is bitterly condemned by citi-
zens OF all shades of political belief,
and it will rebound only in injury to
the party which has resorted to such
contemplate means for revenge.

Fruit Raiser Raises the Scalp Of tn e
OiynpIan Kepsrfer.

ED. STANDARD After quoting your
very just and timely remarks in the
last issue of the STANDARD, regarding
the destruction of fruit tree parasites
by the late cold weather, the reporter
for the OIympidn in Saturdays edition
OF that paper tops off with the follow
ing sarcastic addendum:
"This story is certainly equa led only
by the one which details the results at

shavings under the alluring influence OF

Now, Mr.. Editor, when a callOw
squirt of news gatherer undertakes,
by such means as the above, to ridicule
the experience, judgment and state
ments OF pioneers who have been en-
gagged in the fruit raising business in
Western Washington more than a
third of Il century. it is time for us to
feel ashamed of onr kinship to certain
lines of the human race.
1t was only few days ago that !
conversed with an honored pioneer, Il
professional horticulturist and fruit
raiser of high and varied attainments
More than thirty years ago he planted
fruit trees in different sections of the
Puget Sound country, and since that
time he has been a constant observer
of our climatic changes resulting from
cold, heat, flood and drought, and the
effects that these changes have had on
fruits and vegetables. Referring to
the cold weather of Thanksgiving
week, he emphatically endorsed the
theory expressed in your article that
the destruction of fruit-tree PARISHES
by the late cold snap infinitely ex-
ceeded in good results the paltry loss
Of o few hundred prune trees.

THE New York Sun is said to have
lately remarked that the editor OF the
Oregonian "doesn't know the a, b, C of
finance" Great Scott! Can it be
possible that we have so overrated our
Harvey? While we have all along
doubted that he was an adept at
spellin'-in the financial primcr-we
had no idea that he had not mastered
the elementary principles of subject
he discusses upon at all times SO
learnedly, and occasionally so pro-
foundly. When the Sun says it,
however, the matter is settled beyond
controversy.
