Between Gold and Russet.

As rule our outdoor celebrations in New

uncertain or unfavorable weather On July
we are likely to have oppressive heat.

cold and unsuitable for parading. The
centennial anniversary OF GEORGE WASH
INGToN's Inauguration as President In April
was In fair weather. but the dedication OF
the GRANT tomb, also in April happened on
very harsh day.
The time fixed for the national greeting
to DEWEY in New York, the close OF the
month OF Observation-Disclosures gold and
russet-is most fortunate. At no period
of the year, certainly, is the prospect Of
settled and satisfactory weather more
reassuring The passing days Of the hot

tious for any demonstration hereabouts,

Hughes says that he has made a thorough in

BALTIMORE. Sept 25.-In a speech full OF
feeling Senator Wellington resigned the Chair

Committee at the meeting to-day In Raines

him with treachery and deceit. and declaring
that his own manhood could not permit him to
continue In control even though the Governor
had not requested his resignation. Parts OF
the speech were received with applause. par

nunciation OF Gov. Lowndes was received In

being to let Wellington have his say and then

Would France Profit by Englan nd's
DinlcultIes?

1t Is believed In Berlin that the Emperor
WILLIAM II. would remain passive spec
tator OF contest between England and the
Transvaal, but it Is rumored in Paris that,
should the former country encounter a Sc
we're defeat, France might seize the oppor-
tunity to complete her long-projected
conquest OF North Africa by movements
against Trpoli and Morocco. No such plan,
OF course, could be carried out against the
will OF the German Kaiser, but there 10
some reason to think that, just as he ia
vored the acquisition Of Tunis, 30 now he
would be glad to see the aspirations and
energies Of the French people turned once
more in a southerly direction, and thus di-
verted from the Rhine.
No one who recalls the incidents OF the
last war beween England and the Transvaal
will assert that defeat of the former
power is out OF the question. 1t is true
that this time the British Commander-ln-
Chief will have at his disposal a much larger
force than in 1881 the 80. 900 soldiers from
England and the 10000 despatched from
India when added to the IL, 600 already

The Hon. JOSEPH BENSON FORAKER proved
last week that he is, first OF all things, a
good American. This week and In the
weeks to come he will have a magnificent
opportunity to furnish further proof of his
loyalty as Republican.
There 10 no State where the feuds Of
leadership and the disappolntments. griev-
ances and grudges Of personal ambition
have counted in politics for more than in
Ohio. Senator FoRAKERs resentments have
been advertised widely and discussed gen.
orally. II he were as selfish and malignant
a schemer as some of his enemies represent
him to be, the present situation In Ohio
would give him the chance of his
lifetime to work mischief and wreak re-
venge. All the energy Of his exceedingly
forceful character would be alert at this
time. All the adroitness Of his keen mind
would be devoted to the congenial Job of
smashing the Administration in critical
election in the Presidents own State, and
at the same time avoiding open RESPONSE
bilty for the deed.
1t Is just that sort of performance that
some people In Ohio and elsewhere have
been expecting OF Mr.. FORAKER. Any
manifestation Of disposition on his part
to make trouble would rejoice the hearts of
the Democrats. particularly the Mclean
Democrats. who have been banking on
FoRAKER's supposed intentions.
The Senator had his opportunity to strike
the expected blow on Friday last, when he
spoke by invitation OF the colored citizens
OF Hamilton at their Emancipation Day
celebration. He was twenty-four hours
ahead Of the formal opening OF the Republi-
can canvass by Governor ROOSEVELT and
Judge NASH at Akron. All that he had to
do was to line himself along with Senator
HoAR OF Massachusetts and Senator MASON
OF Illinois in a general condemnation Of the
Presidents policy in the Philippines and in
demand for surrender to insurgents and
the withdrawal OF the nations flag that Ia
now under fire.
1t is not less to the honor OF Senator
FoRAKERs good faith than to the credit OF
his intelligence that he refused to embrace
the golden opportunity to rank himself
among tho Copperheads. His speech at
Hamilton was straight and true. He de-
clared himself for expansion. He declared
that the wisdom OF the acquisition OF the
Philippines will be In due time demonstrated
just as in every other case OF annexation OF
territory In the experience Of the United
States. He defended the payment OF the
twenty millions to Spain. He predicted
that under the protection Of the American
flag the FilipinoS will be advanced as
rapidly as possible. by the wise action
Of Congress. In the enjoyment Of freedom.

TRANSPORTS TO BE lSsPECTED.
Secretary Root Directs Careful Inspections
of the Troop ships and the Troops.

WASHINGTON. Sept 25.-Secretary Root mas
determined upon a thorough inspection Of all
the volunteer regimen ents now being organic
and OF the transports to leave San Francisco
with the troops for the Philippines. Some
months ago the question was raised as to
whether the Inspect or General Of the Army
had authority to direct inspections Of the trans
port service by Inspector General. and Secre
tary Alger ruled that as the transports were
being inspected by the officers OF the transport
service there was no necessity for inspections
by Inspector- General. When Secretary Root
camo into office this question was brought to
his attention. with the result that the follow
ing telegram has Just been sent Gen. shafter at
San Francisco:
Having reference to previous instructions on
the subject, the Secretary OF War enIoins upon
you the importance OF careful inspection under
your special directions. in addition to that
made by officers OF the transport service. OF all
ships including hospital ships, ON which troops
are to embark that you should In this way
fully satisfy yourself that the best possible
service in the way Of transportation Is being
had"
Although no reference is made In the tale
gram to the Inspector General. it is under
stood that the Inspections are to be maze by
an officer OF the Inspector Generals Depart
ment now stationed at San Francisco.
