a NOTEWORTHY incident at the re-
cent annual dinner of the Canadian
Society of New York was the speech
OF Mr.. Pattullo, a member OF the Do
minion parliament, in response to the
toast Anglo American Union" He
said: III you hear OF Spanish sym
pathizer in Britain or in Canada be as
sured that he no more represents pub
lie opinion than the Canada thistle
represents the foliage and cereal re-
sources of our country. / have never
known on any question public opinion
to be SO united, SO completely on one
side, as it is on the subject of this

GERMAN-AMERICAN SENTIMENT.

Milwaukee Wisconsin: "German-Amer-
leans" says Carl Schurz. ARE proud OF their
new fatherland, and know how to appre-
ciate its advantages and great qualities.
Now that war is going on, they stand with
their new country. Its friends are their
friends, and its enemies are their enemies
Good for Carl Schurz!
Indianapolis Journal: A Berlin paper
publishes a letter from Hon. Carl Schurz
condemning the course of a portion of the
German press toward the United States
"German-Americans," he says, ARE proud of
their new fatherland and know how TO appre-
ciate its advantages and great qualities. Now
that war is going on they stand with their
new country. Its friends are their friends
and its enemies are their enemies" That is
the sentiment of all COMMUNICATIONS, who
are fully as patriotic as native-born Amer
leans.
e-Democrat: Carl Schurz, in a letter
published in a Berlin paper, talks plainly
about the "malevolent antipathy of the Ger
man press" toward the United States, says
that this spirit, if persisted in, will eradicate
all the sympathy OF the erman-American
for the fatherland, and declares that Amer
ica's friends are their friends, and its en-
emies are their nemies." These are sensi-
BILE and patriotic words. The attitude of the
majority of Germany's newspapers toward
the United States must be as offensive to
German Americans as it is to Americans of
any other lineage. The authorities of Ger
many profess friendship for the United
States. but this attitude is antagonized by
the expressions of most of the German news
papers, which afford a better indication OF
the feeling of the German people than the
perfunctory and guarded utterances of the
German officials reveal. Aside from the So
cialist newspapers. practically all of Ger
many's press is hostile to the United States.
The press of Germany, as well as of every
other country, is usually a fairly accurate
exponent of the views OF its constituency.
Those German manufacturers and exporters
who are complaining OF the falling off OF
their trade in the United States can find the
cause in the vindictive and foolish anti
American utterances of their principal news

ships, which are really more than the
but Of course mo one is the least bit
anxious regarding the presence there of
a larger British naval force than is
needed. The report that the commander
of the German squadron had declined
tho request of the Spanish governor gen
eral that he take provisional charge of
Manila, If Trustworthy, Is certainly re-
assuring, ESPECIALLY when associated
with utterantes of the semi-oficial Ger
man press, deprecating statements re-
fiecting upon the good faith of Germany.
1t is of course impossible to know what
views or purposes Emperor William may
have in mind regarding the Philippines,
when the time shall come for making
a final disposition of the islands, but
until then it is not probable that he will
take any action that would violate the
assurance of strict neutrality he has
given. He understands fully the certain
consequences of any interference with
the United States in the Philippines
while the war is In progress. 1t would
be vigorously resented by this country
and If we should require the support of
England it would undoubtedly be
promptly given. That would not only
be a very long step toward the Anglo
American alliance which Germany does
not want to see consummated, but II
might lead to a European conflict that
would involve all the powers.
There is a report that Germany, Rus
sia and France have agreed upon q
policy in regard to the Philippines when
the war is ended, but this is hardly
probable. At all events we do not think
that there need be any apprehension al
present in regard to Germany's good
faith. Circumstances compel her to OBJ
serve q strict neutrality.

WORK.

Some Jealous member of the Woman's
Christian Temperance union has been
sending out circulars attacking Lady
Henry Somerset, who has become since
the death of Miss Willard the head of
the union. 1t is charged that Lady
Henry has not been and Is not now true
to the principles of the union in regard
to the liquor evil in that although per-
sonally an abstainer she has allowed
wine to be served ut her table, she does
not think it necessary for all persons to
become abStainerS. she does not want all
public houses closed, nor that they
should be closed during the entire sun
day, she is unorthodoX in her position in
regard to the sales of liquor to children
and she receives evenue from two or
three Deer houses on her own estate.
Lady Henry has explained that wine
has not been served on her table since
the first of the present year, when her
| son ceased to have the ordering of pro-
visions for the castle. The other counts
in the indictment are more serious, but
analysis shows that they amount to
/ nothing more than a charge that she adj
heres to the old-fashioned notion II
temperance means studied and habitual
moderation in all things and that very
likely she has doubts about the fall
bility of the program for %subduing
human passions by n hard and fast rule
of restraint.
1t is not surprising that the disclosure
of Lady Henry Somerset's views har
shocked some good temperance workers,
Some Of them were Mortified at the dis.
covery that on one occasion as the late
Miss Willard was travelling in Europe
she used wine and they criticised hei
for having admitted in her later years
that prohibitory laws have not been uni
formly successful. The critics OF Lady
Henry Somerset nave thus far done lit
tie more than given publicity TO the fac
that temperance work must be every
where adapted to conditions which vary
constantly with time and circumstance

Springfield Republican: The southern
Methodist book concern is not making a
particularly impressive moral spectacle OF
itself before the senate Investigating com
mittee. Mr.. Barbec, the agent OF the con-
Germ, admitted TO the committee yesterday
that it had been agreed beforehand to pay
the attorney and lobbyist at Washington
500, 500, or So per cent of the claim against
the government on account of damages In
| ficted during the civil war. but he dc
clared that this was a matter which affected
only the book concern. He was under nc
obligation to inform the senate about it.
But when the claim was pending in the
senate MIR. Barbee telegraphed in response
to inquiries from individual senators that
the claim agent or agents were to get nj
part of the claim. His present testimony
is to the effect that If he lied about thC
matter il was none of the senatc's or The
governments business!
New York Tribune: In a gen
eral way it is recognized that church.
going is a good and desirable thing
and many even go SO far as to say thu
some special outpouring of Divine grace
follows it. But 1t is generally held tina
unless a man is in a receptive religious
mood his going to church will do him nj
good. Moreover, in Professionalism it is com
ing to be widely believed that the true rune
ton of church services is to arouse tn
moral impulses of those who take part II
them. If that Is so, then going TO churcl
is unnecessary for those whose moral i'm
pulses are already in a state oil great actlN
ity. Indeed. church-going for such peopl
might become altogether too stimulating
We do not say that this is a correct vieN
to take of churchgoing; but it is a view tina
has become very common among Protestant
today. 1t eliminates almost entirely the oil
idea that in some way or other God WORK
on the hearts of the assembled worshiper
and turns a church service into a lectur
lyceum, the value of which depends on tn
ability of the minister and possibly also o
the effectiveness of the music. 1t woul
be idle, of course, to expect people so be
lieving to attend church on a hot day, OIL
indeed, on any day when their doing S
wuold cause them discomfort or trouble.

SUSPICIOUS OF GERNL1NY.

The fact hat there are five German
war ships at Manila, a number not
needed to protect German interests
there, is causing some suspicion of Ger
many's good faith. Although it has been
semi-oflicially stated that the adminiStri-
ton had received what it regarded as
good assurances of good faith on the
part OF Germany in maintaining the
strictest neutrality, nevertheless there is
a feeling in some quarters that these
assurances would be entitled to greater
confidence had not the German govern
ment sent SO formidable II squadron TO
Manila bay. A New York dispatch says
that in commercial and financial circles
| there almost every one is suspicious of
Gcrmany's good Faith and the general
opinion is that Germany desires to De in

tain some part OF the Philippines, There
is said TO be considerable anxiety re-
garding the possibility of German inter
ference, under. some diplomatic or spe-
cious pretext, abfreyent Admiral Dewey

1t is possible that it may be found

to be any good reason for it. 1t Is true

THE INDIAN CONGRESS-

One Of the most interesting, instruct
i've and attractive features of the
Transmississippi Exposition will be the
great encampment of Indians under the
auspices of the United States govern
ment. The bill authorizing this unique
gathering of American aborigincs places
$4,000 at the disposal of the United
States Indian bureau for an Indian con-
gress without prescribing its precise
plan and scope. 1t is, however, well
understood that the main object to be
kept in view is educational and historic.
There are now about $50 distinct In
dian tribes surviving in the United
plated by It's promoters will consist of
about twenty-five groups, representing
all the principal types of the race, care
fully selected by experienced ethnolo-
gists.
The encampment will present an OBJ
ject lesson of the Indian in his primitive
condition, each of the tribes living in
their peculiar form Of habltation and
pursuing the characteristic occupation
of their people. The Zunis and Navajoes,
for example, will be seen weaving blank
cts and working tlligree ornaments, the
Sioux, Pawnees and Cheyennes tanning
hides and fabricating moccasins, while
the Chippewas will build birchbark
canoes. At certain periods religious
ceremonies and social festivals and
dances will be introduced to illustrate
the peculiar rites and customs of the
aboriginal Indian. The progress of the
American Indian in the line of civiliza.
ton will be illustrated by the pupils OF
the best Indian schools and the handi
work of the semi-civilized and civilized
red mar and red woman.
The action of the United States con
gress has been supplemented by invita-
lions to the Canadian and Mexican gov
ernmentS to cooperate with the United
States to make this Indian congress {
congress of all North American tribe.
and it is confidently expected that repre-
sentative groups of Canadian and MeXi
can Indians will join in the encampmen
by the time it is in full operation durin:
the present month. Nowhere in the worl,
has n similar exhibition been under
taken and it is doubtful whether the OPP
portunity will ever again be presented
for viewing and studying the American
Indian under such favorable circum
stances. The savage Indian will be
thing of the past with the close of tn
present century and the full-bloodet
semi-civilized Indian will become NOR
of a rarity with every succeeding veal

have been open but a little over three weeks
and in that time the attendance has aver

added to the fund for paying the original

OPERATIONS AT SANTIAGO.

The battle before Santiago on Friday
demonstrated the superb courage and
admirable discipline of the American
soldiers and also the stubborn fighting
qualities of the %Spaniards. 1t was a
sanguinary fight, though the reported
losses on the American side were not so
great as was to have been expected
when it is considered that the enemy
was strongly intrenched and had every
advantage of position, besides being sup
ported by the war ships in Santiago
harbor. The Spanish forces were nearly
as strong numerically as the Americans
and Cubans and they showed all the
bravery with which they have been
credited, but they had to give way be-
fore the dash and valor of our troops,
! who steadily advanced toward Santiago.
There were some thrilling incidents in
the battle and nothing occurred to mar
the high reputation of the American
soldiers.
Fighting was resumed yesterday, but
at this writing no information has been
received as to results. The fall of Santi.
ago, unless reinforcements have reached
the place, is undoubtedly only a question
of days and perhaps hours, but the task
has proven to be quite as difficult as
was apprehcnded and should teach those
who thought the conquest of Cuba would
be easily accomplished the folly of their
confidence. The sacrifice necessary to
the capture of Santiago will be great
but the result will be of great impor
lance from a military point of view and
may exert a decided influence favorable
to an early peace.
