ARE WE To BE usoNrANs,

The press dispatches have recently an
nounced the discovery of st. Louis pro-
fessor whereby substitute for the very
unwieldy expression, 1.-The Unite1
States" as a designation, has been dis
covered. Instead of saying the United
States we will use the term "Usona," and
instead of speaking of ourselves as being
natives or citizens of the United Stats
we are to designate ourselves 'Usonians."
OF course we might call ourselves Ameri-
cans, but to that distinctive designation
we are told by the professor we have no
more right than have the Canadians,
Mexicans or Patagonians. The word
Usona is coined from the initial letters
North America"
The professor who has devised this
designation has certainly shown a great
deal of ingenuity and a regard for eu-
phony which is in the highest degree COM
mendable. He has also shown
his entire good taste and good
sense in declaring that if the
American press extends it's approval
to the designation it will soon replace all
such expressions as America and Ameri-
cans, as applying to the United States,
and will further save us from using three
unwieldy words when we desire to name
correctly our own land. But it is much
to be feared that his ingenuity and good
taste will all pass for very little.
The people of the United States are the
American people, and the United States
are America just as completely in the
minds of the world as if there were no
such place as Canada, or Mexico, or
Patagonia Moreover, the American peo-
pie are all willing that it should be so
and ready to demonstrate that it is SO
and ought to be so, just as the United
States of America are and of right ought
to be, free and Independent.
What do we know or care about Next
| co. or the othSr minor places on this
hemisphere? They simply occupy a rela-
ton toward us corresponding to that
which Ignatius Donnelly once said the
Populist party bore to him. He had
made it great by belonging to it. These
minor countries are in America. That is
all. They have their names and they
will continue to be known by those
names. The dignity and grandeur of be-
ing an American should belong only to
| the American citizen.
Usona is a nice enough name in its
way. But the Americans will hardly &C
cept it, either at the urgency of the press
or otherwise. History and tradition both
forbid. The American people are SUI
preme on this continent. They will so
remain; and year by year their claim to
be regarded exclusively and distinctively
as the American and the only American
people advances.

"wANG, WILL SING TWICE.
Special Matinee at the Metropolitan
This Afternoon.


How to spend the glorious Fourth is a
question that has agitated the minds Of
many people for the past week; where
to go and what to do to extract the most
enjoyment from the celebration of the
nations birthday are the problems now
occupying the public mind. Some will
find in the festive picnic relaxation from
the routine business; others will HE
themselves to the lakes, and with fishing
sailing, or lolIing in Some shady spot
will pleasantly pass the holiday hours.
The ball games will get their due proper
ton, the parks and other breathing spots
will have their share, and each tndivid-
ual to the best of his or her respective
mind, the citizens of our great and glori-
Gus country, will enjoy themselves in
their own peculiar ways. The Metropoli-
tan opera house, with the merry comic
opera Wang" as the attraction. will
claim hundreds of people who do not
care TO leave the city and still desire to
avoid, for a portion of the day at least
the incessant banging Of guns and fire.
crackers. To people of a nervous dis
position especially the matinee and even
ing performances of the Boston Lyric
company will prove a boon and a bless
ing, and from the indications of the ad-
vance sales the house will be crowded
both afternoon and night. This opera,
with the Baby, Baby" chorus, and the
great comedy elephant, is particularly at
tractive to the little folks, while the
crisp sparkling dialogue and lively
catchy music delight both young and
old. A big, comfortable theater, the cool
est place in town, f1rst-class perform
ance of a popular opera by the best sum
mer opera company ever heard In ST.
Paul. and all for little more than car fare
to the nearest lake, are considerations
that will draw big crowds to the Metro
polttan for both performances today.
Wang will be the bill for the remain

REAPING THE wHIRLwIND.

During the past three months the civic
of st. Paul have been worse than during
any time In the preceding twenty years."
says the Rev. Thomas Hambly. The
statement is substantially true, subject,
however, to the modification that the
reign of unrighteousness and impurity is
little if any, worse than it has been at
any time in the last three years. Any
aggravation of it which may have oc-
CURED in that period is due to the con-
viction of the directors of the Republi-
can local machine that they are as
sured from interruption in their chosen
course by the apparent Indifference Of
the people.
Three times since the Inauguration of
Mayor Kiefer's predecessor have the peo-
pie of st. Paul had it in their power
to apply a remedy to the Infamous con-
ditions prevailing in city and county ad-
ministration, and three times have they
refused to interfere. 1t is not. therefore,
particularly surprising that the open ex-
preston of unrighteOusness and impurity
to which the Rev. Mr.. Handy refers
should be more notorious than it has been
heretofore. At the prevailing rate of prog
ress in this direction we may look for
ward to seeing an open premium set on
the avowed pursuit of crime in official
circles before we have rid the community
of the despicable set who are now in
juring and disgracing the city.
The latest Illustration of the state of
local official morals is furnished through
what is now known as the Bishop case
versive of all ideas of public decency than
the conceded facts of this case? Has
ever public authority descended to such
depths of individual degradation as have
been sounded in this case?
We pay no special heed to the state
ments of the man Bishop. We do not
know that they are entitled to any con-
sideration at all. But from the sworn
and uncontested facts every decent and
thoughtful citizen must turn away In
shame. When the proprietors of places
of doubtful reputation are not willing to
pay for police protection at such figures
| as police officials establish there is
scale fixed for them by some unknown
authority, which appears to be above all
law. And when this scale is not recog-
| nized, then the resources of criminal JUS
tice are brought to bear against them
We have had this foul case before the
public now for some weeks. AS long as
it presents no immediate possibility of
loss or danger to their control of the
offices, the municipal rulers see nothing
reprehensible in the fact. Do the police
believe that the public regard them as
honestly trying to enforce the law? Not
at all. They acknowledge there is no
law to be enfsrced bearing on the case.
1t is in it's present aspect nothing better
or worse than an instance of attempted

Though it's incense of the day,
