+ Objection is taken that ambassador
Choate did not rise to the dignity and
Importance of the occasion when he
was received in England; that it was
not time for humor or wit, and that
the impression he made was anything
but favorable for his country. 1t is
true that some of the English press
have given utterance to expressions in
dicating that a few SO viewed MI
Choate's speech. But while it was hui
morous and at times descended to the
joke level, it was nevertheless spiced
with not few grave and serious ex-
pressions which the vehicle of humor
made the more penetrating and Valu-
able 1t was not an. official occasion;
it was a social function simply, and 1t
would have been out Of place for our
ambassador to have treated weightliy
and with official gravity questions OF
which he could speak only in hiA official
capacity. His pleasantries appear to
have been well received, and certainly
have brought forth no protests from the
English public On the contrary, the
mass of the English papers speak OF his
performance as delightfully."- entertain
ing and pleasant, and that it quite ut
ted itself to the occasion. Assurediy
ambassador Choate gave no offense and
committed no plumbers. 1t is much 1or
a new man in such position to AVOID
TO or
Of shoals and snags. The time has not
come as yet, nor the occasion offered
for testing the metal of our new repre-
sentative at the Court of st. James.
We Apprehend that he will be found not
only to be the astute lawyer ana grace
full orator, but the wise and shrew dip
lomat as well.

Speaking as a Brother.

A certain curate was of a painfully
nervous temperament, and in conse-
quence was constantly making awk-
ward remarks-intended as compli-
ments-to the Bishop and others. Hav-
ing distinguished himself in an unsual
degree during a gathering of clergy at
an afternoon tea at the Bishops pal
ace, he was taken to task for his fail
ings by a senior curate, who was one OF
his companions on the way home.
Look here, Bruce" said the senior,
decidedly, you are donkey. Why
cannot you keep quiet instead of MAX
ing your asinine remarks? I am speak
ing to you now as a brother
Loud laughter interrupted him at this
point, and for moment he wondered

In the report of Consul Macrum Of
Pretoria, the State Department is given
extracts from a letter to a New York
export association that is of signifi-
cant interest. 1t starts out with the
statement that there is a great field in
South Africa for American manu-
features, but most Of the business goes
to Europe. This is due to the fact that
our manufacturers are unwilling to sell
goods into South Africa without in
most cases actual payment before ar
rival of the goods or exacting guaran-
tees, while European dealers give the
customary commercial time margin.
Again, the European dealer sends out
agents, into the Transvaal, for instance,
and canvasses for business, while the
American makes his contracts for de-
livery through an export commission
house, which has from fifty to seventy
five lines of goods to handle, of the
most of which they know nothing,
while the European canvasser knows
all about his goods, and what grades
are best adapted to the conditions of
the market, and the demand of the
consumer. The writer of the letter in
Inmates that the sooner we wake up
on the subject the better for us. The
Consul adds: 1T seems to me a per-
fectly logical proposition that the
sooner our American manufacturer
goes directly after the foreign trade
with the vim and energy he displays
in seeking trade at home, the faster
will be his progress"

The comforting by Emperor William
and Cecil Rhodes, which has excited so
much newspaper gossip, has probably a
deep meaning. The Kaiser fell in with
Mr.. Rhodes scheme of Cape-to-C Cairo
railway with alacrIty. 1t indicates that
there is very good understanding be-
tween England and Germany That
this should arouse the ire and the fears
of the French is not at all surprising.
Emperor William perceives, evidently,
that it will be very advantageous for
his people to have cordial. good rela-
tions with the English-speaking, pro-
gressive people, and that in all future
world movements they are to be
counted upon as the more important
factors; even in European matters they
are not to be counted out, though a
large body of them might never take
an active part in any questions of Eu-
ropean dominion.

OLIVE OH

Colusa Sun: Olive oil ought to be-
come and will become an article of
diet in every household in the land 1t
is going to be a great industry and in
it California will prosper The tree
lives TO great age. The trees of
scripture at Jerusalem are there yet,
and the older the tree the more olives.
1t is said that in some places one tree
makes living for a family. All these
things being facts one must see how
wise are those who years ago planted
olive trees. The Sun" has from time
to time urged on the people the plant
ing of olives. The battle now is be-
tween the pure California oil and the
cheaper salad oils made of cotton
seed and other things. Much of it is
labeled olive oil, but 1T should be avoid
ed and the pure oil obtained. Every
person whose digestion is not absolutely
good should use it in quantities. From
personal knowledge We speak, and our
experience has been but a repetition
of the universal experience OF others
who have tried the pure California ar
ticle. 1t may require a little education
to get to like it, but one will soon ac-
quire taste for it so as to eat it With
relish on almost every article OF diet
Men acquire a taste for tobacco ard
there is much more sense in acquiring
taste for that which gives health than
that which saps the strength.

THE NEW ELECTION Law.

The I los Angeles Times rails at the
new election law. and rebukes the Gov
ernor for approving it. 1t declares that
the law is destructive Of independent
voting, encourages illiteracy, is pre-
MUM upon carelessness, makes dishon-
est voting easier and aids the machine
politician and the bosses. Why? Be
cause under the new law voter py
placing the official stamp. at the head
of party column may vote the
straight ticket But see how little
grain of truth and fact will upset
long growl of mistake and ignorance.
There is no such provision in the law
That is the fact. Hence the wall of
the Times comes to poor end.
However, the Times" dislikes the
law anyhow 1t dislikes the column
party ticket on the official ballot, hold
ing that it initiates against independ-
enoe of the voter But Indiana is a
State of intelligent people. So, too, in
Iowa and several other States where
political and general intelligence is
quite up to. the best standards in our
land, the people have adopted precisely
such a voting system. They would not
give it up under any considerations,
and do not find in it's operation a sin
gle one of the ills our disgruntled con-
temporaries, the San Francisco Elk
aminer'' and the Los Angeles Times, .
discover. ~
We are rather inclined to think, after
reading all that has been advanced
against the new law, that its author has
builded better than he knew, and that
it is about to pinch toes that need the
application The roar against the law
proves that it has virtues which are go
ing to operate better than was ex-
pected. 1t is not for a trifie that
certain influences thus early begin the
effort to kindle public sentiment against
the law. Wait, gentlemen, and give
the law a trial. If it succeeds, as we
are confident it will, your attitude will
be all the more ridiculous because of
your premature wailing.

AN ARRANGEMENT



Between the United States and Portugal.
WASHINGTON, July s.-Cable ad-
vices from Lisbon state that the Por-
tuguese House of Peers has ratified the
new commercial convention between
Portugal and the United States. This
is the convention concluded in Wash
iHgton some time ago between Commits
sioner Kasson and Marquis Santo-
Thryso In behalf CT the two countries.
II is under section three of the Dingley
act and is tariff arrangement" in
stead of a treaty. AS such it goes into
effect without having to be ratified by
the United States Senate and the only
step remaining to put it in operation is
a proclamation by the President. This
is expected to follow as soon as the
action in Lisbon is officially commu-
nicated here.
The arrangements makes concession
of those articles mentioned in Section
8, viz: Brandies, vermouth, still wines
and sparkling wines, angola, paintings
and statuary. These were the articles
included in the French arrangement,
except sparkling wines, which are in
cluded in the Portugal arrangement
for the first time. The concession
which Portugal gives to the United
States have not been made known.

IN THE FLOOD DISTRICT,

Forty Five Thousand Negroes, Who arc
All Dependent on Charity.
AUSTIN, Texas, July 8.-Governor
Eayers stated tonight that at present
there were in the neighborhood of .i5.-
900 people in the flooded district, the
majority of them negroes who were
dependent entirely upon public charity
for sustenance. The Governor estj-
mated the loss of life at not over fifty
persons. The heaviest losses will fall
upon the owners of the big plantations
in the bottom. Up to tonight Cover
nor Sayers has received 100000 in
money contributions, bat much more is

AUSTIN, Texas, July S.-Reports
from Dennison, Paris, Texarkana and
other places ON Red river, state that
rain has been pouring in torrents for
OURS with no prospect of stopping.
1t is feared that flood in Red river
may result. A telegram received to-
day from Juliff, in Fort Bend county,
says that six hundred persons are in
danger of drowning at that place.
ST. LOUIS. Mo-. July S.-A special
to the Republic from Caldwell, Texas,
says:
Estimates made by cotton buyers as
to the loss resulting from damage to
the cotton crop in the Brazos are that
not less than 200 square miles of cotton
bearing land has been flooded.
Basing the loss on five per cent. fig
ures the crop destroyed ON these plan
tations was worth almost S4,000,000.
Well-informed persons are of the opin-
ion that this unprecedented rise in the
Brazos has cost the people of Texas
little less than Sp000.00o Thousands

FOR. PEACE.
A Notable Gathering of Christian
Endeavors at Belleisle Park Yes
terday Afternoon.

DETROIT. Mich, July ga decided
ly Anglo-Saxon aspect was impaired to
the speeches at the Christian Endeayei
peace jubilee held on Belle Isle. this
afternoon. All the speakers were re-
representatives. of English-speaking
countries. American and British and
all sentiments fayoring greater friend
ship and closer relations between the
United States and British subjects
were heartily cheered.
Wet, raw weather through the day
caused considerable curtailment of the
attendance, but at o'clock, after the
sun had at last shone forth, several
thousand Endeavorers had grouped
about the speakers stand. erected in
one OF the pretty groves of Detroit's
Island Park
President Clark, who presided spied
Mayor Maybury in the crowd, and call
ed him to the platform. In a short
speech, made later, the Mayor spoke Of
the appropriateness of Belle Isle as the
scene of a peace meeting, since history
had recorded that all Indians had al
ways held the island sacred to peace,
and since no blood of either savage or
civilized man had ever been shed in
violence there, although numerous
battles had been fought elsewhere
throughout the same region.
After singing patriotic American
songs and GOD Save the Queen" a
memorial was read with an announce
ment that its sentiments had already
been endorsed by Hon. Andrew ID.
White, president of the United States
commissioners to the peace confer-
ence.
Rev. DR.. James L. Hill, of Salem,
Mass, first spoke for the United States
For Great Britain, Rev. James Muir
sell, of London, spoke briefly. He said
that the question of peace seemed per-
haps more Immediately pressing upon
the lives of English people than Amer
leans because England lies too near the
continent of Europe to be ever de-
tached from its political ENHANCEMENT
For years, said he, Europe had been
waiting for the voice OF Russia TO
speak uncertain whether 1t would be for
peace or war.
Rev. John Walker, of Queensland,
Australia, voiced peaceful sentiments
in behalf of the land under the south
ern cross.
The last address was by Rev. DR.. E.
w. Wilson, Of Hamilton, Ont, who as
serted that he had married the Epworth
