Germans Not 10 Be Fooled.

Yesterdays press dispatches an
nounced that great German editorial
st. Louis had asserted that if the Re-
publicans do not at the next national
a new party will be formed. Presuma-
bly, he meant that the Germans will in
a body turn against the party that has
made this such a good country, that for
eigners sold their clothes in order to
get owe here where they could have
political freedom and get rich. The
country is full of them who are well off
but who might have been poor and un-
recognized but for the genius, liberality
and enterprise of a nation that has so
far known how to manage its W af-
fairs with a success unknown in any
other land. The Germans are not i'm
pulsive people. Any editor who says
that they can be swung in a body in op-
position to any foreign policy of the
government that does not concern their
lives, liberty, and pursuit of wealth and
happiness is simply effervescing. 1t is
true that in several cities recently
meetings for the organization of a Ger
man-American party have been held.
But at the bottom of the movement,
will finally be found some persons seek
ing political promotion or strength for
themselves. After awhile the sturdy
sense of Teutonic citizens will prevail
to suppress the disturbing influence.
Such things have happened so often be-
fore that the result can be foretold with
accuracy. Solidity of any n foreign
race in this country can at best. only
give an Insignificant benefit to a few
men elected to Office. Race solidity on
the contrary, arouses the %preiudices of
all other people and the lot of the clan
nish ones becomes less easy. Individual
effort and independence of action are
responsible for the signal advancement
of individual rights in this country,
rights that are as dear to foreign born
citizens as to the native American, and
possessed by them to an equal extent in
free America.

The Barefoot King May Kick.

Now the kingdom OF Samoa may be
sending a minister to interview Presi-
dtnt Mckinley. Admiral Kautz sent a
letter to a friend, who gave the com
m%unication to Il reporter. The admiral
wrote:
II can assure you that | am all right
and have done nothing that l or my
friends may be ashamed of, unless it is
the making of a king which am obliged
to do today. But he is a very inoffensive
sort of young fellow, a native 10 years
old. He wears a French admiral's
cooked hat, but no shoes or stockings,
or trousers; still considering the torrid
weather, he looks very well in this
climate"
But after this frank confession of his
un-American act of making a king, the
admiral must have had an inkling that
he was hardly diplomatic In his language
for he added:
'P. 81 am in error about the shoes
and trousers of his royal highness. At
the last moment his advisers prevailed
on him to put on both, just for this oc-
casion only"
That saving postscript may saw the
country from being Swallowed by a
dusky cloudlet, and from a demand be-
ing made that the president shall write
Kautz to be good: and also assure the
island king that all the sovereigns of
the United States have gone barefoot
and that Kansas statesmen go sockless.

Education For Trade.

The growing trade of the United
States in foreign lands should stimulate
young men to secure q commercial edu-
cation for the management of foreign
undertakings. While but . small per-
centage of commercial men in this
country have had any training beyond
that of experience, there is no question
that the one who has had commercial
education early in life has an immense
advantage. And when it to
extending business into other lands,
educated employees will be wanted and
foreigners in many cases will secure
employment that merchants would pre-
fer to give to American young men.
This will be the case because in several
European countries, France particular
ly, commercial education is given spe-
cial attention.
In France the elementary portion of
commercial training is mostly given at
institutions either directly under state
control or heavily subsidized by the
