the Pope and his challenge to the social
democrats of the realm. Hence, also, his
differences with the kaiser. which resulted
in his retirement from office. He clearly
overreached himself in the last Instance
and discovered that the builder of an en-

But the German statesman's failures were
small in comparison with his successes.
He was very great man. IN bold initia-
tive in uuconquerable courage. in construct.
i've faculty his place Is in the first class. The
man who could weld a powerful nation out
of the little priucipalities which he took in
hand-all easily fired by jealousies and each
proud and even vain of it's traditions-was
in every way remarkable as a statesman
and a leader.
Bismarck during his later years had come
to express some unfrendiiness for the
United States. But, in effect. it was trib-
ute to our prosperity and rapidly increasing
importance. His love for Germany was
consurningly strong and he saw in the ma
ton across the water not only the triumph
of democracy. which he did not like but
rival of his country for the expanding
trade of the world. And he made no mis-
take about the situation

Godkfn and Croker.

The New York Evening Post advises
President Mckinley to exert himself for an
early peace lest his chances for second
terra be jeopardized. Wars breed heroes,
and such heroes in the United States some
times become dangerous in politics. The
President must keep his eyes on Dewey, ct
al.
When Richard Croker landed the other
day he was told that Col Roosevelt's name
was being canvassed in connection with the
republican nomination for governor of New
York. Whereupon Mr.. Croker asked if Col
Roosevelt had been wounded. He thought
wound might help the colonel's candi-
dacy.
Captain Blifl and Black George always
take about the same measure of men and
things. Neither believes in anybody. Both
are convinced that small selfishness and de-
prayity are the only springs of human ac-
ton, and both advise operations according
ly. Captain Blifl is certain that Mr.. Nc
Kinley would sell his country for a second
term in the White House, and Black George
can see no other reason for Col Roosevelt s
enlistment than a shrewd play for political
preferment
With respect to the President it is strange
the Evening Post cannot see that it's ad-
vice Is bad He must be extremely eau
tious, even if he has no higher idea of his
office than that ascribed to him. The ques-
tion is not one of peace but of an advan-
tageous peace. The war. fought under his
general direction, has been a most decided
success Practically the only thing that
remains Is TO garner wisely the fruits of it.
Upon that problem the President is now
engaged. If he should trip there-should
negotiate peace simply for peaces sake
he would inevitably injure himself Wis.,
dom Is as necessary now as it has been at
any time since hostiiities began.
But, as a matter of fact, the President $
personal interests are Identical with the
countrys interests. He need not scheme
for himself. He has only to consider, as his
character insures that he will. the good of
the country. If he negotiates a peace
which shall even approximately bear a
comparison with the war, his Endorsement
in his high place by the country will be a
certainty.

Coal and the Nicaragua Canal.

The great importance to the United
States of the Nicaragua canal has been
clearly demonstrated in several of the de-
yelopments of the war with Spain.
First. came the long trip of the Oregon
to Join the feet off Cuba. when, had the
canal been in existence. three weeks would
have sufficed. instead of the three months
consumed. The transfer of the ship TO At
Iantic waters proved to be most wise
provision, for in the fight off Santiago the
Oregon took rank as one of the best boats
ir the line and in the chase after the
Cristobal Colon she supplemented the pow
ers of a battle ship with the speed of
fast cruiser. But the long trip around
subjected her to heavy strain. It was
cnly because she proved TO be of crack
once into action with the fleet and give so
admirable an account of herself.
Then came the question of COAL which.
it was soon seen, would play a prominent
part, not only in this war, but in future
wars where sea fighting would be n fea-
ture. Battle ships and fast cruisers with
out coal are as helpless as without guns or
powder. and that country whose provisions
for coal for its fleets are lacking cannot be
accounted as strong on the sea.
Statistics as to the worlds coal supply
are instructive on this point. Tho United
States and Great Britain supply two-.hirds
OF all the coal mined. Great Britain beads
the list of producers. with the United
states standing second. But nearly tine
whole American supply comes from the
country east of the Rocky mountains. The
pc Ssibilities in Alaska have not as yet beer
ascertained, but even unusual develop
ments there would not meet the require
nents of the case now that the Pacific is
TO be the theater of such tremendous ac-
uvities. with the United States as a prom
trent actor in the drama.
Nor would 1t be possible to remedy The
difficulty simply by utilizing the railroads
across the continent. They would not be
Sufficient TO land such supplies as Will he
needed But the canal, supplementing
those means of moving coal to the Pacific,
would solve the question completely and 10
the American advantage.
If the present Congress at the short sas-
sion dees not provide for building the ca

beneficial Destruction of Systems,
From the New " rk Tribune.


The fact is that the whole history of the
American people has been the breaking
down of American systems, social, indus
trial. political We broke down an Ameri-
can system when we established a nation
in place of some petty states; when we
told Europe that the old plan of colonial
expansion on this continent was at an end;
when we annexed Louisiana, Florida,
Texas. California, Alaska, Hawaii; when
We established the secret ballot: when we
overthrew the spoils system. The plea that
an abuse must be protected because 1t is
American IS as old the nation, and
every advance has from the beginning
been denounced as unAmerican, and still
will be, whether 1t is planned to secure
seats for everybody in street cars or to do
our duty as one of the powers of the world.
But in spite of all dire forebodings the
American people have uniformly shown
that the American system was the one
which seemed best adapted to meet the re-
quirements Of a particular situation, not
what some old fogy told them was the
method they had followed in other times.

Bismarck.

II nay be said OF Bismarck as truly as It
IS of Washingto' that he was the Father OF
his Country. He stands. and will always
stand, for the supreme German achieve
ment- He made the empire possible and he
made 1t a fact. and during his reign, one
might almost say, 1t was the greatest polit-
icai force in Europe. Bismarck was the
empire. and what the kaiser has now under
his control and direction is the work of the
greatest man In all the history of the Ger
man people.
Bismarcks task called for the very quail
tiles which he possessed. To succeed he
must make himself feared both at home
and abroad. He could not hope to win IL
ne played for the affections of men. His
ends were beyond the ordinary comprehen-
sion and possible only to the man who
could command untaltering loyalty or the
part Of his countrymen. He proceeded ac-
cordIng to the requirements of the situa-
ton His was the all-sufficient Intelligence
and will power. and he moulded the German
poteutates and the German people without
difficulty TO the purposes he had in view.
His success was extraordinary and he took
his place as one Of the colossal figures of
the century and the very foremost man of
his race. There is no one to dispute with
him the palm of having brought the Ger
man people together and forward to a
place in the front rank of the nations
