KAIsER's GREAT SPEECH.
A Fine Effort to Introduce'an Epoch of
Amity and Good Will

The spirit of the telegram Which the
kaiser sent President Loubet after Wis
iting a French training ship appears
again in the imperial spesch ON the
battle field of St. Privat Generosity
and cancellation mark its every wcrd
and in elevation of sentiment It IS
worthy to rank beside the moral adj
dress of Lincoln at Gettysbugr
Every one who has no sympathy for
the speakers political ideas must ad-
mire both his wonderful tact and his
magnanlmity upon this occasion
There was no offensive obtrusion of
self on the scene. The surrender to a
great and lofty theme was complete,
and while incentives to German pride
were inevitable in the very nature OF
the case, there was nothing to wound
the feelings of the most sensitive CT
Frenchmen.
The eulogy was for a common brav-
cry and a common humanity without
national distinctions. THE French
soldiers found a glorious grave" ex-
claimed the emperor, land when our
flags rustic sadly ever the graves of
our own dear comrades let it wave
also over our opponents and whisper
that we mourn and esteem them.
Then follows a recognition of
higher power which shapes the desti-
mics of nations. with all gratitude
to the Lord of Hosts for his gracious
guidance of our great kaiser, let us
hope that the souls of all who once
opposed us here in hot struggle are
gathered today around the throne of
the Supreme Judge. and look down up
On us, united in the eternal peace of
God
How mean and pitiable does the dis
cordant cry for revenge sound after
an invocation like that A truly man
~ and noble people would not neglect
such an opportunity for converting
enmity into friendship. If France is
w-rthy the tribute paid she will reply

DEwEY's WELCOME HOME.

Inasmuch as there was no good reg
son why Admiral Dewey could not
reach New York a day earlier than
that had been planned it is fortunate
that the request CT the committee hav-
ing che great reception in charge that
The report, on September 2Sth, instead
of the 18th, was acceded to. 1t is pro-
posed to have a two days celebration,
and If the admiral comes on Thursday,
the 28th, the parades, etc, can be had
on Friday and Saturday. Otherwise
they would have to be either on Sat
urday and Sunday. or be carried over
to Monday. The latter plan is obvi-
ously Objectionable, while the propo-
sitfon that Sunday be made one of the
days of parade would be a shock to
sentiment which, whatever may be
said to the contrary, is one of the most
firmly rocted and widely cherished
that prevails among our American
people. This the committee would
have discovered, if it had had any
doubt about it, if it had yielded to the
suggestion to make Sunday ono of the.
reception days. 1t is creditable 10 the
good sense of the committee that it
does not seem to have regarded that
suggestion as worthy OF serious coz

ries with him special permit from
the secretary of the treasury at Wash

He is go years old, and has made q
study of currency since 1867. He is
recognized by bankers, it is said. as
the best judge Of counterfeits in the
country. He bases his knowledge on
the familiarity Of genuine currency.
He says that any one who handles
money extensively and becomes famil-
lar with col0rs. engraving, shading
and printing of bills can learn to de-

Professor Schurmau, president of the
Philippines commission, asserts that
the present trouble in the islands is a
continuation of the old rebellion
against priestly abuses, the UnHed
States being regarded by the natives as
Spins successor IN protecting the Ro-
man church. We shouldn't wonder if
there were some truth in this But
the idea of Uncle Sam as the cham
pion of Roman Catholic priestcraft is
one of those phases of this 'pesky"
Philippine situation that are a good
deal funnier to the Don just now than
