This reminds us of a fable: A
lion worn out with years lay
stretched upon the ground, utter
" helpless, and drawing his last
breath. A boar came up, and to
satisfy an ancient grudge, drove
at him with his tusks. Next a
bull, determined to be revenged
on an old enemy, gored him with
his horns. Upon this an ass, see
ing that that the lion could thus
be treated with IMMUNITY, thought
that he would show his spite also,
and came and threw his feet in
the lions face. Whereupon the
dying beast exclaimed: "The
insults of the powerful were bad
enough, but those could have
managed to bear; but to be spurn-

hazard even the remnant of a
reputation in pursuit of an aban-
doned proaigate. Years of vice
and immortality have rendered us
immune from scandal, but those
middle compound characters are
tender as spring-time buds,
because, while lacking firmness
to avoid dishonorable actions,
they yet, have feeling enough to
be ashamed of them. The pri-
vate lives of such men present a
most inviting field for moral
speculation. We have thus far
studiously avoided. touching upon
these delicate topics; but as we
have no talent for secret intrigue,
we may be driven to open attack.
Up to the present time our in
quiry has been strictly confined to
the public acts of men acting in a
public capacity, and in no instance
have we ventured to Criticise any
man or measure except in his or
its relation to the public. We
have dealt only in public affairs
and our structures have been
directed to violations of public
trust. We trust it will not be
necessary to depart from this rule.

oNELEssoN.

For the moment, the Govern
ment Of the United States is en-
gagged in a war of invasion. 1t
has captured and is about to take
possession of foreign territory to
have and to hold during its pleas
ure. Soon American troops will
garrison posts and hold cities in
the far east. In littlc while
Spain will be driven from its an
cient possessions on the western
continent, and yet all this in the
name of humanity to rid a
stranger race from the oppression
of unjust and unequal govern
ment. Never before was war in
augurated for such a purpose.
This is strictly a sentimental war,
but a noble and worthy sentiment.
1t will teach the other nations Of
the world lesson in humanity
and in the inalienable rights of
man which they could not other
wise learn in countless gener-
atoms. The spectacle of a rich
and powerful people giving freely
of their wealth and blood that a
poor and inferior race may enjoy
the privilege of self-government,
will be a revelation to monarchs
and serts everywhere. They
cannot understand now and they
do not believe it. Indeed to most
of the European nations, such
war as this country is now wag-
ing, seems to be the last POSSIBLE
ity of absurdity. They will'not
understand it until Spain is con-
quered, peace restored, and Cuba
governed by her own people I'M
der the forms of republican
constitutional government. Then
it will begin to dawn on them
what great and magnanimous
people the Americans are, and
the Stars and Stripes will take on
a newer and sanctified glory.
They will say, this Republic has
taught the world a lesson in adj
vanced and Christian civilization
which was sadly needed. And
after while the nations
will conclude that it is altogether
cheaper and better to have only
just, honorable and liberal gov
eminent, made by the people, for
the people.

DEWEY.

We can scarcely realize the
rapidity with which men attain
eminence in time of war. Take
the case of Admiral Dewey, for
example. A month ago, probab-
ly not one citizen in a hundred
had ever heard of him, not one in
a thousand could tell what state
he was from, not one in ten
thousand knew he was some
thing of a dandy otherwise than
as a fighter, and not one in a
million knew that his first girl

Now, he is known, loved, adj
mired, feared or hated all over
the civilized world. Little bare
headed, bare footed street arabs
talk nothing but Dewey; they
sing of him and swear by him.
Great soldiers, statesmen and
rulers are lost in wonderment at
his deeds and filled with admira-
ton of the man. Its Dewey from
Orient to occident, from pole to
pole, almost, We could almost
hope this war would last long
enough to show to the world that
there are scores and scores of
Deweys in these United States.
We could wish particularly that
an opportunity would be given
the Idaho boys to develop two or
three Deweys. We believe there
is stuff of the right kind among
them, and if there should be some
hot work down on the Phillip
pines, they are liable to come to
the front. Anyway, just as brave
boys go from Idaho as any on
Dewey's fleet. Give them a
chance and we may be sure the
report. will be all that can be de-
sired.
