MIR. SHERMAN.

Though the Hon. John Sherman, of
Ohio, is Secretary of State, he seems to
have had no lot or part in the important
work which has engaged the attention
Of the State Department for many weeks
part. We may therefore, presume his
health is so poor that he Is incapable Of
wrestling with the veXatious and COM
plicatcd questions that are daily arising.
The ouues that he ought to discharge
are devolved upon his assistant, Judge
Day. while Mr.. Sherman is treated pretty
much as il he were an emeritus secre-
tary. which he is in point of fact. 1t
would seem that the situation would sug-
gest to Mr.. Sherman the propriety of re-
signing Nobody can blame him for his
feeble health, or his advanced age, but
the President is entitled to have a help
full man in tho office which Mr.. Sher-
man continues to occupy. but whose
duties he cannot perform.
OF course. the President could compel
Mr.. Sherman to resign at any time, but
we suppose he feels q delicacy in doing
so. The senatorial seat that Mr.. Sher-
man surrendered TO go into the Cabinet
is Dow filed by Mr.. Hanna, and the
status quo" which existed at the time
of Mr.. McKinley's inauguration could not
be restored without returning Mr.. Hanna

No docbt. things will go on as they are
for some time longer; but 1t is odd that
at this time. of all times, our Department
chief.

STATS UNCHANGED.

Advices from Washington tell us that
the situation is regarded as graver than
at any previous time. though at TINS
writing there are no new developments
N iustify that conclusion. The status, as
Car as we can see, is simply unchanged.
This is not saying that the outlook Is
rot as grave as it well could be. 1t APP
pears settled that the administration VIII
not abate one jot or title of its crucial
demands upon Spain, and there are no
signs of the Madrid Governments re-
ceding from the attitude it assumed
Thursday.
Yet. on the other hand nothing has oc-
curred TO intensity the strain. Neither
house of Congress was in session yester-
aay. and. consequently, there was no I'M
due excitement in Washington. The
uu.etude there may represent the calm
before the storm, but let us hope that 1t
represents a season Of preparation for
considering the Presidents message when
il shall be presented on Monday with
full appreciation of the terrible RESPONSE
bility attaching to whatever action may
be taken upon 1t.

4 Song of Liberty.

Across the land-from strand to strand
Loud ring the buSle notes,
And Freedoms smile from isle to isle,
Like Freedoms banner floats.
The velvet wales sing, Liberty
To answering skies serene;
The mountains. sloping to the sea,
Wave all their flags Of green.
The rivers, rushing to the deep,
The joyful notes prolong
And all their waves in glory leap
To that immortal song!
One song of Liberty and life
That was. and is to be,
Till tyrant flags are trampled rags,
And all the world is free.
1t rises, and an echo comes
From chained and troubles isles,
And roars. like oceans thunde. drums,
Where glad Columbia smiles.
Where. throned and great, she sits in
state.
Beneath her flags of stars,
Her heroes blood the sacred food
That crimsoned all its bars.
Hail, to our country! Strong she stands
Nor fear the war drums beat:
The sword OF Freedom in her hands
The tyrant at her feet.

1r 1s SIMPLY IMMENSE.

The city authorities have been misJudsed
regarding that Ninth-street side""ih
busIness. Talk that considerations OF
economy were behind allowing tn pres
ent ankle-twisting condition OF Things 10
continue has been merely little piece
OF 'partNonable sophistication. Inns
ought to have been apparent upon III
tie reflection; for certainly there couiu
he no economy In advertising our city
among strangers I'm the way the west
side Ninth-street pavement has adver-
tised Il.
The fact Is, our city fathers have been
incubating a pleasant surprise Tor 'he
people. They have been preparing pro-
eramme OF recreation for the pubic.
Knowing as they do that there are tnou-
sands Of our people that cannot afIoTd 10
patronize baseball or even pay street-car
fare TO the golf links, our counciineh
propose to start in the heart OK the me-
tropolis "a pro bono publico, free gratis,
for nothing" opposition to these amuse-
ments.
The scheme Is to substitute for the ex-
listing alleged pavement along the west
side of Ninth street cinder path, ana
turn IL into a sprinting course for men In
the late afternoon. and track for stray
dog trials of speed at night. For the rest
of the time 1t can be used as walkway
by our citizens, who will find 1t much
more comfortable to tread and much
easier on shoe leather than 1t is under
present billowy conditions.
Further. this combining of amusement
features with Improvement Will enable
the average citizen to walk down the
west side of Ninth street without that
wabblng motion which visitors to Rich
mond have interpreted to be due to
bricks in the hat instead of the bricks.
or the excuses for bricks, under the feet.
Who says our Council does not appre-
ciate athletics and the advantages Of
keeping the public amused, and has not
a proper regard for the reputation OF
our city for sobriety? The cinder path
idea is simply immense.
