GERMAN AMBASSADOR.
Makes Statement About Proposed Exclusion of
 American Horses.

Washington, Feb. 1o.-The following statement was made today to the secretary of state by the German ambassador:
 Certain declarations of the royal Prus- sian minister of agriculture have evidently been distorted. The minister answered to inquiry made to him in the Prussian diet that we had to wait if any evidence might be furnished of veterinary dangers from the importation of American horses Only then in case of such dangers should have been proven would there be reason to take energetic measures or impose quar- antine, as far as we are entitled to do so.
 This explanation was called forth by the cabled statement that the Prussian minis ter of agriculture had said that American horses infected with influenza were being imported and it might become necessary to forbid the further importation or horses.

A LESSON.

When President Cleveland and Secreta-
ry Whitney in 1885 urged the reconstruc-
ton of the navy in accordance with mod :
ern science there were narrow minded
men in Congress who opposed the neces-
sary appropriations as waste of the dear
peoples money. At every subsequent
stage of this great reform the same class
of hickory nut heads have popped up in
both houses of Congress.
Fortunately they have not been strong
enough TO prevent the progress Of the
good work. but they have deferred it in
several instances and then gone home to
boast Of their watchfulness at the door of
the treasury.
II these petty demagogues had controll-
cd legislation during the past twelve
years where would we have been when
the occasion for war arose?
There is hardly South American re-
public that would not have been our SUI
perior on the seas and we would have

ble waste and that the cheese paring con-

A CHARMING PAIR.

A preacher came To q newspaper man
in this way: "YOu editors dare not tell

your newspaper would be failure.l The
editor replied: lyon are right; and the
minister who will at at all times and I'M
der all circumstances tell the whole truth
about his members alive or dead, will not
occupy his pulpit more than one Sunday,
and then he will find it necessary to leave
town In hurry. The press and the pull
pit go hand in hand with whitewash

little virtues into big ones. The pulpit,

SPARKMAN FOR CONGRESS.

Every Democrat In the First Distrc
will be glad to know that Hon. s. NJ
SparKman Is to'serve his State In Con
gress for another term, and every Rcpub
] lican in the district will feel that the pub
| lie interests coniided to him are safe II
his hands. Mr.. Sparkman did not begir
his public life as an untricd man among
us, but his two terms Of service In the ma
tional legislature have strengthened the
hold on our people he had gained by his
former record as Democrat, lawyer, and
citizen.
Yet, 1t Is pleasing to know that all the
prognostications of his friends have been
so fully justified that he had no rival in
the convention. even as suggestion. and
his political enemies are so much his
friends that no opponent is likely to con-
test his election.
Valuable as have been Mr.. Sparkman's
services during the two terms now draw
ing to a close, he can do even more for his
State and district on his return to Wash
ington, for experience is worth much to
the legislator. and he has now won po-
sition from which he can exert more
powerful influence on his fellow members
and therefore on the course of events and
the policy of the nation. From his place
as a member of the committee on rivers
ers and harbors. he has already done much
for Florida; doubtless he will be contnu-
ed in that place. and since the whole ma
ton has awakened to the Importance of
this State as military and naval base,
he can do more in the future.
We congratulate Mr.. Sparkman freely
and cordially on the complement he has
received from his constituents, but we
feel that with just as much reason we
can also fclicitate his district and State
in securing his services for another term
Happy in themselves. may they all long
be happy in each other,

have done the handsome thing by ster-

O'BRIEN AND CHIPLEY.

| II republics were ungrateful the charge
| does not apply to America, and 1t touches
I Florida least OF all her sisters. An Incl
dent in proof Of this occurred in Tampa
I during the session of the Democratic con-
ventlon for the First Congressional Dis
trict. when Capt. Ed O'Brien of Escamb ia
took occasion. on taking his seat as chair
man, to pay touching tribute TO the late
w. ID. Chipley Of Pensacola. The tribute
Of a friend and cO-worker in the Demo-
crBtic vineyard TO one whose life had been
devoted to patriotic labors for the coun-
try. the South and Florida was received
with breathless attention, and then with
applause, which showed how envy and
prejudice had at last become silent before
memory still green in the hearts of our
people, and gradually becoming more hal
lowed as the years roll by.
For the name Of Chipley today Is more
potent than the influence Of the living
man ever was; West Florida is now as a
unit in support of his policy. in his coun-
ty his friend is without a rival Tor the
highest place in its gift. and in the dis
trct another friend is nominated by ac-
clamation.
The Secretary Of the Navy declares
that the most pressing need of the nation
now is dockyard on the Gulf w. ID.
Chipley for years labored in season and
out of it to prevail on Congress to prepare
one at Pensacola for an hour like the
present, which he clearly foresaw.
The voyage Of the Oregon has convinc-
ed the nation that the Nicaraguan Canal
is a necessity. W. ID. Chipley labored
with his friends to set the facts before the
people that are now plain to every eye.
AS Capt. O'Brien well said. the years
themselves are writing his epltaph in i'm
perishable characters, and the people will
yet do him justice, as they now support
the friends and the policy he advocated.

THE SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN NAVY
SUPPLEMENT-

The Scientific American, which has al
ways identified itself verv closely with
the interests Of the Navy, is to be con-
graduated on the extremely handsome
and valuable Navy Supplement- which
it has lately put before the public. We
think that, II the average reader had been
asked beforehand what kind of a work he
would prefer upon the Navy. he would
have asked for Just such an issue as this.
Both the illustrations and the reading
matter are of the straightforward explain
atory kind which is necessary to put
technical subject clearly before, the lay
mind, 1t was happy thought to preface
the work with chapter upon the CLASH
fication of warships and insert few dia-
grams by way Of explanation Of the subtle
differences between cruisers, monitors and
battleships; for after digesting this chap
ter one is prepared to follow inteligently
the detailed descriptions of the various
ships which make up the bulk OF the is
number is that 1t does not merely give an
external illustration Of each ship. but it
takes the reader below decks, and initi-
ates him into the mysteries of the maya
zines, handling rooms. ammunition holsts
and motive machinery. The sectional
views Of the interior of the turrets of the
monitors are exceptionally fine, as Is the
large wood engraving of the engines of
Massachusetts," The last page of the
number contains complete tables Of the
new Navy, the auxiliary feet and the va
rious naval guns. A handsome colored
map OF Cuba and the West Iudees is fur
nished with this issue. We extend our
congratu lations TO our contemporary on
their prod uction Of work which Is well
conceived and admirably carried out.
