The Intelligencer Is personally inter-
ested In the success Of the Republican
cause in Ohio this fall. because 1t is a
Republican paper that clFculates in
Ohio. and because Ohio is expected to
endorse It's favorite son. The Intelli-
gencer would like, therefore, to know
what ohlo's loyal citizens, Democrats
and Republicans. think of their Demo-
cratic congressman from the Twelfth
district, John Jacob Lentz, and the fig
ure he cut on the Sabbath day at the
meeting Of the New England Bimetallic
League, when he said: "The question
of the hour is brutal warfare against
an innocent people" Also his further
assertion that IF the dag is to stand
for murder and repression, for the ex-
tlnctlon Of liberty for God-given rights
of struggling people, then l say down
with such dag"
These tributes are paid the Tagal
brutes who have been shooting down
our soldiers, and who sought to burn
the city Of Manila and massacre all
foreigners, whose protection the United
States was under obligations to secure.
A suggestion is made that Congress-
man Lentz would substitute the white
flag of surrender for the stars and
stripes.
one of the remarks made by this Ohio
Democratic leader was that this unjust
war will eventually result in the MUIR
der of Aguinaido. who is one of the he
role figures of this generation" To
shoot down in battle the commander of
body of half-savage lnsurrectiOnsts
against the authority of the United
States is murder. according to Mr..
Lentz.
Are the citizens, the loyal. true citi-
zens of Ohio. who have never yet been
dlsloyal to their country, and many of
whom reside In the Twelfth district,
going to endorse these expressions from
their representative in Congress? VIII

Miss Grants Coming wedding.

Miss Julia Dent Grant, the grand
daughter of General U S. Grant, who is
to be welded to the Russian Prince
Cantacuzlne, is to have the most mag
nlhcent trousseau ever made in France,
and the present she will receive from
her aunt, Mrs. Potter-Palmer, is re-
ported to be half-mlllion dollars.
Russian colors will predominant in her
wedding gowns, and in the ceremony
she will wear in her hair a iluttering
handwrought gold butterfly, while her
long trained skirt will gllsten with the
threads of shining real gold. So del
icately contrived is the butterfly and so
exquIsltely is 1t put together. that "a
whisper Of air viii set It's wings fiutter-
ing like a real butterfly in it's flight,

Gus piece of jewelry ever devised"

old General Grant, who despIsed pOmp

his granddaughter in this regal array
marry a real prince, by the grace of the
car Of all the Russlas, what would he
think of it? But as we recall that
Russia was friendly nation in the war
in which the great commander won his
fame, and at one time rendered good
service, we may not regret that his de-
scendant has given her hand to Rus
sian prince with a clear title. instead OF
a besotted and impoverished offspring
of broken down French nobility, relic
OF a departed empire, merely for the
sake of the title on one side and money
on the other side.
