Congressman Lewis the other night de-
iivered an address before the students OF
the University Of Pennsylvania. An ac-
count OF this interesting event in a Popu-
list newspaper says:
His description OF the state guards re-
fusing to be led by government h.relings
and leaping from college and workshop
TO voluntarily give up their lives for thu
freedom OF their feiow-man provoked the
widest enthusiasm"
We may assume that the whole speech
was Lewisesaue. but We may also take
leave TO doubt II the college students broke
into the widest enthusiasm because OF
the eloquent statesman warriors denuncia-
ton Of army officers. If they did. the
more shame to them. The nations peril
has been regarded by Col. Lewis as he
regards all other matters, and his attitude
toward them. viz: How will they affect
Lewis? We venture to hope that the grave
crisis OF war has given his constituents
a somewhat clearer and considerably less
appreciative view Of Mr.. Lewis than they
have heretofore enjoyed. Earnest work
should be done by earnest men.

\ GREAT PAPER.

The superior facilities OF the Post
InteIligencer for obtaining and printing
the news. and all Of II. were finely Illus
tra.ed In yesterdays issue. The story
Of Dewey's great victory was the chief
feature OF the days chronicles, and IT
was told completely, adequately. bril-
liantiy. The regular service OF the As
ISOLATED Press was supplemented By
q 1,s0o-word special from New York.
which was a graphic and thrilling re-
citai Of the terrific collision between the
hostile fleets and the absolute annihila-
ton Of the Spaniards. II Is not the
practice OF the Pos.-Inteiligencer to
boast of It's achievements. IT Ii content
TO permit results to speak for them
selves But IL is not too much to say
that no newspaper on the Pacific coast
was yesterday more thoroughly salts
factory In all respects to its patrons.
None north Of San Francisco presented
the war news. and the general news.
I'm style and fuliness approaching the
Post-Intelligencer; and it is doubtful IL
any In that city exceeded 1t In variety
and interest.
The exclusive telegraphic service OF
the Poss-Intellgencer daily aggregates
from 1900 10 1850 words. and on occa-
sion It is more. The regular Associated
Press service Is supplemented by spe-
Gals from New York. Washington and
other important Eastern points. and the
local and Northwest fields are covered
In manner not rivaled by any other
newspaper. It may interest patrons OF
ehis paper to know that the day Asso-
.iated Press report Is $500 words-occa-
sionally 3.0o0-while the night report is
from 15.o00 to $4,000 words. The meager
report of an evening newspaper may.
however. be supplemented by clippings
from matter that has already appeared
in the morning newspapers.
1t viii no doubt be gratifying TO the
geneer to know that It's circulation il
now larger by many thousands than it
has been I'm Its entire history. It has
not been the practice of the Post-Intel-
ligencer 10 print so-called circulation
statements. IA custom utterly discredited
By reputable newspapers. but stiil in
strong vogue among publishers without
conscience or character. It Is sufficient
10 state. and TO assert positively and
without reserve the correctness Of the
statement. that the circulation Of this
newspaper Is larger than the combined
circuiations OF any two newspapers in
Washington: and its publishers think
they are justified In declaring that 1t Is
now greater than that of any news

San Francisco.

CITY OFFICIAL PAPER.


The grim fumor OF diplomatic COM
munications is frequently manifested.
but probably never more 30 than In the
interchange OF congratulations between
the Russian and the Chinese govern
menf upon the conclusion Of the ne
gotiations which deprived China OF It's
splendidly equipped forts at Port Arthur,
the town Of Taiisnwan and. incident
ally, large part Of her territory.
The dispatches have made the world
familiar with tho desperation shown bc
China in endeavoring 10 avoid making
the onsrous concessions demanded by
Russia. and the pitifuI plea Of that coun-
try to Great Britain that she was unable
to resist the pressure brought upon her
by Russia. The concluding commnni-
cations form one of the most interesting
chapters of international controversy.
After the Russian flag had been raised
at Port Arthur. and after the Russian
government had chuckled over the re-
Incsant submission OF China. the follow
Ing telegram was sent by Count Moura-
yieff. the Russian minister for foreign
affairs. To- the Russian charge d'affaires

This travesty upon friendship was

peror. the Russian minister being most
gracsously permitted 10 ascend the steps
OF his throne In order TO deliver the
telegram with his own hands. The
emperor of China IL described as being

evidence of the friendly purpose OF the
Russian emperor that be rose from the
throne, read the contents OK the iele-
gram aloud 60 his court and made u
speech in which be said:
1--WE all are extraordinarily grateful az

II may not be known generally that the

the fact Representative Gibson claims to

she was born. Her former name was Miss
Pink Martin, a daughter OF Mr.. Henry
Martin, who lived on Nails creek. in .
county of East Tennessee. The family was
one OF the best in the county. and her
father was very wealthy. so that Miss
Martin was given exceptional opportuni-

taken To the hospital ship and have az
least chance TO receive competent AZ

In order to make this plan work most
thoroughly. IT might be agreed that no
attempt should be made by either force
10 destroy or cripple the hospital ship.
Indeed. It might be understood tina.
where practicable the wounded, without
regard TO whether they were friends or
foes. should be taken care OF. Even the
Spaniards could scarcely refuse to Join
In such an agreement, since their men
would be the greatest gamers. 1t might
be regarded as somewhat Quixotic 10

II would not be unbecomlng a nation
which has already taken such a high
stand In the cause Of humanity.
