setting forth the instances Of serious
slight to which he claims to have been
Fubjected, he summons all the German
sovereigns to see that justice is done
him. He also says that what hap
pened to him may happen to them
next, and that the Emperor, by outrag-

case, endangers the very foundation
on which the thrones Of all German
sovereigns rest.
The Emperor has recalled the Prus-
sian representative at the court of
Detmoid.
The last straw, the one which in
duced the regent of Lippe-Detmold to

about by the refusal OF the officers of
the Detmold garrison to pay to the
members OF the family of the regent
the honors the latter considered due,
Whereupon he vainly appealed to the
general in command and later referred
the whole matter to Emperor William,
who sent the regent the following re-
ply: My general has orders to render
to the regent what belongs to the re-

Hon. John B. Gordon, Commander-in-
Chief, United Confederate Veterans,

Dear Gen. Gordon:-Your recent tel
egram in behalf of the United Confed-
crate Veterans was very welcome, and
l would have written to you before in
acknowledgment excepting for the un-
usual demand upon my time
The present war has certainly served
one very useful purpose in completely
obliterating, the sectional lines drawn
in the last one. The response to the
nations call to arms has been equally
spontaneous and patriotic in all parts
of the country. Veterans of the gray
as we'll as OF the blue are now fighting
side by side, winning equal honor and
renown. Their brave deeds and the
unequaIled triumphs of our army and
navy have received the gratitude of
the people of the United States.
To have such hearty commentator
from yourself and your colleagues Of
the work of this administration in the
conduct of the war and the pledge of
Whatever support may be needed to
help In bringing it to successful
completion, is indeed most gratifying;
and l thank you especially for the
frank and cordial expression of the res
passed and forwarded to me.
with very kind regards, l am,
Sincerely yours,
WILLIAM M'KINLEY.

DAWN OF THE SUBSIDY ERA

Senate concurrence in the annexation
resolution will be followed, doubtless, by
vigorous demand, "as war measure, u
for the prompt passage Of the Bennett
bill, providing 100000 subsidy to aid

graph line to the Orient by way of the
Sandwich islands. This bill has already
been favorably reported from the house
committee on interstate and foreign COM
merce. and is held in allegiance pending
final action upon the annexation resolu-
lions.
To partially minimize the objections to
governmental aid to private undertake
ings. the proposed subsidy is to be spread
out over period of twenty years, but the

ALGER'S RETALIATION

It looks as though Southern California.
was to be punished by the war departs
ment of the government because the peo-
pie of this section have seen fit to criti-
else severely-and we think justly-the
unwarranted action Of the secretary Of
war in his efforts to defeat the will of
congress and the will Of the people in
connection with the construction of har-
Dor Of commerce and refuge at San Pedro.
Alger's first chance at retaliation &C.
Cured when President Mckinley NOM
mated Colonel Otis as brigadier general.
Secretary Alger was opposed to that NOM
nation, and he was also opposed to con-
firmation by the senate, but the senate
confirmed.
The president and senate can make a
brigadier general. but the secretary of
war can bottle him up If he sees fit.
About the first regiment to respond to
the first call Of the president was the
Seventh regiment from Southern Cali
fornia. This regiment was the second
one to report at the Presidio-the San
Francisco regiment being first. The
Seventh has been well equipped; 1t is we'll
Differed and well drilled, and it has been
highly complimented by both press and
people as fine body Of well drilled and
we'll behaved soldiers.
Two expeditions have been fitted out for
Manila, but this fine body Of men-among
the first to report for duty-was left
behind, while regiments brought from all
parts of the country thousands Of miles
acknowledgements that arrived on this
coast long after the Seventh were in
camp-were sent to the front.
A third expedition was planned, and
again the Seventh is side-tracked.
Secretary Alger is playing this big game
of chess, and he is responsible for every
move made; he is responsible for this de-
liberate snub given to the Southern Cali
fornia boys.
The Express ventures the hope that
General Otis will be able to overcome
this unjust discrimination, and yet the
Express ought to know that Secretary
Alger would enjoy turning down General
Otis as often as he could get chance
and would also enjoy snubbing any mar
or set of men whose cause General Otis
might espouse.
There can be but one conclusion drawn
from the present condition of affairs
Secretary Alger is retaliating on Southern
California.
The Republican party is responsible fol
the acts Of its administration and It'll
secretary Of war.
| If the people Of Southern California
the fathers, brothers and friends of the
gallant boys of the Seventh regiment
are willing to pocket this insult and kiss
the herd that smites them, they are moi
