The Welcome to Dewey.

The plan to give Dewey a $4,000
banquet, at $50 a plate, is doubtless
we'll meant, but -? Well, does any
one think that Dewey will appreciate
a testimonial merely because a fortune
was extravagantly spent in its ar
rangement and preparation? We don't.
We believe that Dewey will value more
highly a cheer from a single lone
American coming from a neart filled
with gratitude and being one voice ex-
pressing the sentiment of 10000, 900
country people than all the $4,000
banquets thatc an be arranged. The
arrangements call for $50 plate. Does
any one believe that any one attending
will receive the full value of their mon
ey? The honor of welcoming Dewey is
above price. When it is bought it be-
comes below value.
Far better is the plan to have the
admiral arrive at San Francisco and
permit the nation to pay tribute to him
on his transcontinential Journey
That would be popular with the people
and with Dswey. far more popular
than the waste of money that is 10 be
the feature of the proposed New YOrK
banquet. The one would permit mil
lions of persons to welcome him home,
to be one of the multitude, whose
guest he is. The other builds a wall
around him that can be scaled with a
ladder OF dollars. Which do you
think Dewey, plain spoken, Dluff, un-
Dewey, would prefer?
Why not consider his wishes as well,
as the wishes of the millions? LetJ
Dewey be the guest OF the nation first !

Dewey Changed His Mind.

When the order to clear for action
was given in Dewey's feet on that
memorable May morning in Manila
Bay, one OF the powder boys hastily
took off his coat, which slipped from
his hand into the water. In the inside
pocket was a photograph OF his moth
.er., The boy had just been looking at
it, had kissed it and restored it to what
seemed to be a safe place. He asked
permission TO jump overheard and re-
cover the coat, and when he was for
hidden to do this he went TO the other
side OF the ship, leaped into the water,
swan to the coat and saved it, For
disobedience he was put in irons and
held for further punishment. Com
modore Dewey wondered why ne had
risked his life and dfsobeyed orders for
the sake of a coat, for the boy had said
nothing about the photograph. In an
swer to the commanders kind ques-
tiOn he disclosed his motive. The
Commodore's eyes filled with tears and
he clasped the boy in his arms. Or
ders were given that the little fellow
should be released. "a boy who loves
his mother enough to risk his life for
her picture" said Dewey. Cannot be
kept in irons on this feet. THE Inde-

Carnegie Tells Why He Sold Out.

London, May S,-AndFeW CarheBlei
asked by the World correspondent to-
day to give his reasons for selling his
vast interests in the manufacture Of
iron and steel, referred with indorse-
ment to an interview with him printed
in London paper today
In this interview Mr.. Carnegie was
aesked II he had sold from fear or dis
like of the trusts, and was quoted as
saying:
1.-THE trusts have never frightened
me, and the Carnegie Steel Company
has no occasion to be afraid Of them,
as It is the greatest property of dts
kind the world has ever seen or prob
ably ever will see.
81 did not sell out because business
was not prosperous; it never was so
prosperous, nor were its prospects ever
so>goodA "
Il sold In pursuance to a policy de-
termined upon long since, not to spend
my old age in business, struggling af-
ter more dollars. believe in develop
ing a dignifled and unselfish life after
sixty"
Mr.. Carnegie's attention was called
by The World correspondent to para
graph in a London paper which re-
ferred to his famous declaration that
ito die rich is to die disgraced," and
asked what he was going to do with
the $1O0, 100000 he had amassed.
Tell that editor" replied Mr.. Car
negie, Ito watch and see. l hope
shall not justify the definition some
times deserved of a philanthropist, as
a man with great deal of money but
a very little sense"
Asked his opinion of the recent tri-
umphs of American engineering firms
in beating English competition for the
supply OF locomotives to India, etc.
Mr.. Carnegie said:
LAS l have been telling my native
land for at least fifteen years what was
coming, l am not surprised.
"The American is the most alert
quickest and most versatile man the
world has yet seen. The American
workman is more skillful than any
other"
But, Mr. Carnegie, the Briton has
got a long way ahead of the American
in the Industrial struggle"
"Very good, but he has never before
had to compete with a man Of his own
blood developed under more favorable
circumstances.
ITO be sure there is a great deal of
kick in the Briton, and the struggle
will not be hastily given over. When
he has to meet superior competition
have great faith in mis- ability to
change his methods and to fight.
"One great obstacle which he must
encounter is the fact that minerals
are rapidly being worked out in the old
land, while in the new they are only
just being opened.
How do you think matters will
work out in the manufacture of iron
and steel?"
THE wants of the world are suffic-
lent to tax both Europe and America.
There are only three countries which
can furnish much of these articles
Great Britain, Germany and the United
States.
THE two former are now worked to
their fullest capacity and can't meet
the increased wants of the world.
which must be satisfied by the United
States.
I'm the temporary depressions which
come at intervals Great Britain and
Germany will find the surplus of Amer
lea selling in competition with them,
which is just what the American man
ufaGturer has had to stand heretofore.

TREATY WITH FRANCE.

The authorized representatives o.
France and the United States have, al
ter discussion of two years, signed Il
reciprocity treaty between the two
countries.
The details of the treaty agreement
have but little interest to the general
public The fact that over six humid
red separate points had to be consid-
cred in turn reveals why there was
delay in reaching an agreement. The
effect of the treaty IS to bring about
concessions upon both sides as to du-
ties to be charged upon specific ex-
ports and imports.
This treaty was brought about under
the Dingley act and it is the most i'm
portant agreement of the kind yet
reached. IL is fully expected that un-
der the operations OF the treaty both
countries will be the gamers IN a COM
mercial sense. 1t is purely a COM
mercial agreemer'5, and a general in
crease in business between France
and the United States will follow.
Minimum and maximum rates have
been agreed upon by the treaty makers
and there now bids fair to be better
commercial understanding than ever.
What has been accomplished with
France may be followed by other
treaties of a similar character with
other countries. The United States is
disposed TO be f1ir with it's business
friends and Germany should take tho
cue and show a more reasonable atti-
tude toward US and our products.

rrME FOR STRONG MEASURES.

The strike troubles at Cleveland
are increasing. The foreign clement
there-the Poles-are taking a hand
and the dispatches tell us of further
rioting. and scenes of great disorder
There are many troops on dFiy in
Cleveland, but it looks as if a much
larger force would be required.
At a recent meeting of the Cleveland
city council TO take measures regard
ing the strike several OF the members
INDUCED in silly propositions and wild
talk against the railroad companies
That aroused the ire of Mayor Farley,
who spoke blu1Sly and to the point,
saying:
This is not time for any cheap pc
litical plays The situation in Cleve-
land is too serious for a joke. The
people have gone crazy. 1 don't
know what the cause OF the insanity
is, but we have got to put an end to it
quick. Law,essness must stop, if it
takes the entire military strength of
the STATE to stop it. 1 am of the opin-
ion that some of the cheap plays for
notoriety made by councilmen are
partially responsible for existing con
ditions"
These were brave words from the
mayor, and he apparently realizes the
gravity of the crisis through which the
city is passing. The labor leaders are
feared by the cheap politicians, and
the mayor did we'll to note the fact.
When the use of dynamite and at
tempts to murder are OF frequent oc-
currence the time for petty politics
should end. The so-oalled Labor
vote" has influenced some OF the
Cleveland members of the city council
and they have played with the fire OF
insurrecGon so long that the city is
now in the hands of the militia. Pol
itics should have no part in rioting
and murderous assaults, and the men
who attempt to make political capital
out of strikes and riots are endanger-
ing the whole social structure. Law
Iessness must stop IN Cleveland and
the mayor has taken the right stand. |
If the militia cannot cope with the sit
uation few regiments of regular
troops will do the business in short !
