4 CURRENT COMMENT

SCHOOL INTEREST AND THE FUSIONISTS.
The legislature made great mis-
take in its refusal to pass the bill pro-
viding for reduction in the rate of
interest on deferred payments on
school lands. The fusionists of the
senate are said to have caucused on
it, and agreed unanimously to oppose
it, there were one or two votes for it
from that source, and had the fusion
lists even broke even on the vote they
would have passed it. In summing
up the work of the fusionists in the
Legislature, it may be said that this
was one of the bills that they defeated
= by their concerted action. Princeton
Union.
Interest reduction on school lands
was another of the wise measures adj
vocated by State Auditor Dunn
which was turned down by the legis-
lature. But as usual the fusionists
did not stand by the best interests of
the people. The best reformers after
all are the progressive element in the
Republican ranks.

HON. BELLAMY STORER.
HON. BELLAr1Y STORER.

The final events closing the war
with Spain are over, bat it will take
years to re-establish friendly feeling
on the part of the Spanish for our
people. 1t is, therefore very trying
position for which Hon. Bellamy
Storer. of Cincinnati, o., has been
selected. His friends, however, say
that he is abundantly fitted to dis
charge the duties of Minister to
Spain.
Mr.. Storer is the present United
States minister to Belgium, and so far
as he has been called upon to act on
important questions in that post he
has proven himself an able diplomat.
At his home he is known we'll and
favorably as lawyer of probity and
capacity. A constituency there sent
him to congress few years ago, and
he made reputation as statesman.
AS diplomat, Mr.. Storer is we'll
qualified for the delicate and import
ant duties that will be incidental to
his unique position at Madrid. In
other respects, too, he is equal to the
place. His private fortune is ample
to uphold the social status of a first
class minister. He is warm person
al friend of President Mckinley, and
this, it is believed, should have much
weight with the Spanish government.
1t is evident that his work will be eff
fective, since Spain has agreed to the
appointment, and it is hoped that she
will have no cause whatever to regret
her acquiescence.
Mr.. -Storer is a graduate of Har-
ward. class Of 81, and read law with
with Stanley Matthews. Bellamy
Storer, ST., his father, was we'll
known and successful lawyer, and as
early as 1880 was member of Con-
gress.
