The son of Grover Cleveland is to
be congratulated that he was born too
late to be called the prince. That title
affixed to the name of a young man
means the grossest of abuse on the
part of the newspaper reporters. They
follow him wherever he goss. Let him
be wise and a good fellow and they
grow humorous over him just the
same. Let him submit to interviews
and they misrepresent him. Let him
refuse to be interviewed and they in
suit him to his face and afterward in
print. He is a marked man, and mall
ice follows him as naturally as his own
shadow. Let the little Grover thank
heaven that his father Is too old ever
to be president again.

hidden away in the inexplicable diplo-
macy of Muravieff. Thus 1t is that the
willy old Mohammedan plays upon the
national jealousies Of the Christian pow
ers to defeat any permanent concert
that might operate to deliver the con-
quered province and the Christian popu-
lation from his clutch. But the contro-
versy has reached q most interesting
stage. There will have to be surrender
either upon the side Of Great Britain
or upon that of the Turk. This would be
a commonplace matter for the sultan,
were it not for the inspiration of the
German emperor, but he may prove very
obstinate unless the kaiser Is called of.
With Great Britain unreservedly COM
mitted to the policy Of preventing the
cession of any of the conquered territory,
there is liable to be clash If the OBJ
stinacy of Hamid should become chronic.
Upon the whole, these complications
would indicate that the ancient eastern
magazine is gradually taking on the
conditions that point to an inevitable
explosion, and an awkward hand may
apply the match at any moment.

THE PARIS ANARCHISTS

The attempt to assassinate President
Faure of France at Paris Sunday shows
that anarchism is not yet stamped out
at the French capital, and that the lives
OF its public men in general and of the
president in particular are in constant
danger from the bomb, the revolver or
the knife Of the assassin.
At this distance it is not clear why
these periodical attempts at assassina-
ton should be made against the public
men of France France is not notoriously
misgoverned. On the other hand the con-
dltions have materially improved in re-
cent years and the tendency of the times
is toward greater liberty and progress.
President Faure himself, while he is
perhaps not so much of popular idol as
some of his predecessors, has created
favorable impression both by his policy
and the manner in which it has been exc
cuted, and by his personality. He is
neither tyrant nor fool.
The Paris anarchist seems to be the
living exemplification Of pure cussed-
ness" whose hand is against any and all
forms of government, and whose idea of
the pinnacle of glorious achievement is
the striking down of the head of auth
ority. A stern example will doubtless
be made of the would-be assassin of
President Faure should he be taken into
custody. Anarchism in its h-dealing
form is not to be tolerated in any civil
lied community or country. The French
anarchists cannot hide behind the
assumed principles that led up to the
horrors of the revolution. They have not
the excuses nor the provocations that
existed in those days.
The herald., 1897-06-15

The inaugural address Of McKinle,
foreshadowed the scheme and the ap
pointment of Mr.. Gage was directly II
line with its purpose. The hope Of the
conspirators is that this new currency
reform BILL" when duly prepared by q
''non-partisan commission of distin-
guished financiers,n will evade the usual
discussion Of an act Of Congress and be-
come law without much question.
Their expectation is that the country
will, by that time. be in such a dire con-
dition of distress that it will swallow
their nostrum at q gulp, believing that
any change must be for the better.
AS a matter of fact, these patent -medf-
cine doctors of finance, these currency
quacks, would be utterly discredited but
for the desperate condition of the pa
tient. This they well understand and
the country in the meantime will be
made to suffer as it never has before.
The next step in this great conspiracy,
as we have already said, will be the
message Of Mr.. Mckinley, which may
be looked for as soon as the tariff meas
ure is out of the way.
This first movement in Congress to
authorize the appointment of currency
revising commission, will pass in the
House of Representatives, as at present
constituted and under the lead of Car
Reed, without much interruption; but
will it go through the Senate as readily?
lf the first bill passes, will the second
and more important one pass?

LONDON COMMENT
On the Attempted Assassination Of M.
Eaure

|
| NEW YORK. June 14.-A dispatch to
the Journal from London says: The
English papers briefly comment on the
attempt on Faure's life, but do not give
1t political importance. The event pro-
duced great uneasiness in the publ ;
mind. enhanced by the approach of the
jubilee, since it is recognized that there
is always the possibility that some fan
attic or madman may make an attemp.
on the life of the Queen during her pro-
gress through the city on the 22nd
All sorts of sensational rumors are
| current, one being that the police intend
to take action in respect to certain indi-
Ct that city. '-rfirs- wotfu f1rubabIy mean
that the authorities are about to make
arrests on quite a wholesale scale and
that suspects, being brought up at Bow
street, would be remanded for week to
enable the police to make inquiries. At
the expiration of that time and when
the jubilee would be over the police
would offer no evidence and they would
be released. improbable as this may
sound. savoring so much of German and
French police tactics, there is no doubt
that many foreigners believed it and left
London. fancy, moreover, many others
will be closely watched by detectives on
jubilee day.
Some newspapers and their corre-
Ispondents profess to trace the hand of
an anarchist in this latest affair, but the
majority see only the act of a madman
and express general sympathy with
President Faure and the French and re-
mark that it is to be devoutly hoped
that the perpetrator of the outrage will
be speedily captured and dealt with for
the sake of the example as we'll as for
punishment.

A NEW TRUST
Sash and Door Makers Pool Thei,
Profits

CHICAGO. June 1.-THE Inter Ocean
says: A new door combination has been
formed. 1t is a recently incorporated
company known as the Western Door
Company, with $1,O00.00O capital and
headquarters at Rock Island, Ill.
Frank Adams, formerly commissioner
of the Manufacturers Sash, Door and
Blind Association, but now of the Far
leyLoetschor Manufacturing Company
Of Dubuque, Iowa, is one of the incor-
porators. He is considered one of the
best informed men in the door trade
and he is really the organizer of the new
company. The plan is to practically
form door trust on a new plan, as the
old trust formed in Wisconsin several
years ago has been forced out of exis-
tence by the courts of that State. The
first work of the new company is to
combine all the sash and door factories
along the Mississippi route. Most of
the large factories have already been
secured, and not only the others on the
route, but also all the western and north
western factories will be brought into
the company by purchase or otherwise
One of the incorporators, speaking
OF the new combine, said: "The door
business has been run at loss for over
two years. as there are too many fac
tories for the trade and many of
them had to remain closed part of the
time to prevent overstocking the mar
ket. Even then there has been too much
stock and prices are lower in proportion
to the cost of lumber. The object of the
trust is not to restrict trade but, to put
1t on a paying basis. Branch houses
are to be opened in all leading distrib-
uting markets. Chicago will have one.
There will also be one at New York,
San Francisco and also at Sydney or
Melbourne, Australia.
There is to be regular set of officers
and directors of the consolidated factor
les and it is said that Frederick Weyer-
haeuser, the lumber king. will be pres
ident."
