tory. Fully 100000 were gathered
along the line Of march Of the parade
aud for four. hours the admiral was
busy bowling acknowledgements Of the
cheers that met him from all sides.
When tho parade entered tho thiokly
crowded streets down town the admiral
met with his real reception and it was
most enthusiastic. The cheers made
practically one continuous roar, at
many times 80 loud that it was difficult
to hear the music of the band which
marched ahead Of the admiral's car
riage. The sidewalks were packed
from curb to walls; and every window
which afforded : sight Of the parade
was filed with as many heads as could
be thrust through it. On the tops Of
the buildings were other sightseers and
all joined in giving the admiral well
come which in point Of enthusiasm has
never been surpassed by that extended
to any man who has ever been the guest
Of tho city Of Chicago.
Greeted With Song.
On the steps Of the art institute on
Michigan avenue were gathered 800
young women, number Of them clad
in white, being so placed as to spell the
word 'Dewey. " As the carriage contain
ing the admiral Approached their voices
burst forth into "See the Conquering
Hero Comes" and the march was
stopped until the song was finished, the
admiral expressing great pleasure at the
singing. Naval, military and civic Or
Plantations followed the carriage con-
tanning the admiral through miles Of
streets decorated with flags and bunt-
ing and with models Of the cruiser
Olympia made from various materials,
the most popular practice being to out
line the cruiser in colored electric lights.
Speaking to the Manila veterans escort
ing his carriage the admiral said on
seeing ono of the Olympias, "See; boys,
there is the old shipv' and the sailors
gave a hearty AYE, aye, SIR" in re-.
Spouse. Not less pleasing to the admiral
than the expressions Of greeting and
good will shown by the decoration were
the many spontaneous
Proofs of Real Welcome
that he received. IF the admiral's car
riage came near enough women threw
flowers from windows of high buildings
and tho sailors around his carriage
picked many bouquets that had missed
their mark and fallen in the street.
When there were no flowers there were
cheers and afterward the flowers and
the cheers came together, moving the
admiral to rise in his carriage and bow
his acknowledgements.
After traversing the business part of
the city tho parade was reviewed by
Admiral Dewey in the presence Of thou
sands Of people wedged in literally
solid mass for blocks on either hand. A
luncheon at the Union League club fol-
lowed and at 8 p. m. Admiral Dewey
4 and his aides were the guests Of the
University club, while Mrs. Dewey and
the members Of the women's reception
committee were entertained at dinner
by Mrs Arthur Cation. At II p. m.

A QUESTION FOR CONSIDERATION

A question that is worth the considera-
ton Of the Democratic leaders is this
Would it not be advisable, in the plat
form that will be adopted at Kansas City,
to make no reference TO 16 To bimetal-
ism? If this course were pursued would
not the Democratic party stand a better
chance of elecung its presidential ticket?
The reasons for taking this view are
that there IS a great deal of dissatisfac-
ton with the Republican party on &C
count of its catering TO trusts, its ten
dency toward imperialism and its lack Of
any settled policy for dealing with our
insular possessions. 1t is so great that
not only the Gold Democrats. but even
Republicans would assist the Democrats
to elect their ticket. II there were no
apprehension respecting silver.
1t seems TO be admitted that there can
be no legislation in behalf Of free silver
coinage in the next five years. The Senate
will remain Republican for that length Of
time beyond all doubt. There can nothing
be done in the interest of bimetallism as
long as the gold standard law remains In
force. And the chances are that u1A%fh
De 4OGEtl LlldI LAFt years DtAOAC NhdI Ia
viii be repealed Even if the Democrats
should elect the next House it is doubtful
if they could pass a bill in that body
repeating the gold standard law. There
would be enough Democrats from the
North to prevent the passage of a repeal
ing bill Indeed, with 200 more ma
tional banks scattered all over the coun-
in, he of q
currency to the extent of 800, 100000 or
s2O0, OOO it will be difficult to get any
Congress, in the near future, even though
having a very considerable Democratic
majority, to legislate in favor of free sill
yer coinage.
1t is true that the Silver Republicans
and the Popuists must be considered.
They are now acting with the Demo-
Gratis But would they insist upon giving
free silver coinage prominence in the
Democratic platform, and in the cam
paign, if it were apparent that by doing
so the chances of the Democrats for win
ming the election would be lessened? 1t
is very doubtful if they would.
With silver out of the way and the op-
position to the Republican party harmoni-
Gus and enthusiastic Democratic success
would be almost certain. 1t is true that
Mr. Bryan insists that silver shall be
kept at the forefront of the fight, but
even he ought to be willing, under the cir
cumstances to put aside the silver issue
for a season, if there were good reasons
for thinking that by so doing the pros
poets of the Democratic party for getting
control of the government would be i'm
proved.

RTILDING TIE WY.

The House Committee on Naval Affairs
has decided b authorize. in the forth COM
Ing naval appropriation bill. two seagolng

ers Of the highest practical speed and

and a navy yard run in accordance with
the wishes OF the politicians is a pretty
costly, as well as very troublesome in
sttution.
Some Of the New York newspapers have
been trying to get the Secretary of the
Navy to utilize the Brooklyn navy yard
for building ships for the navy. but ne
does not take kindly 10 the suggestion. He
thinks he can get better ships, and for
less money. from private shipyards.
The reason the government must keep
building ships all the while is that war
ships become obsolete very quickly. IN
ventlons are being made all the time, and
the result is that ba tleship built this
year will be out OF date in fifteen or TWEEN
ty years. The warships we built when we
began constructing our new navy are nov
of very low grade, measured by the
present standard of warships. 1t is said
that when Great Britain was thought TO
be ia a fair way of having trouble with
Russia and France recently attention
was directed TO her navy. II is caimed
that more than q third Of the battleships
and half of the cruisers were found 70 be
totally untitled to cope with modern war
ships. They were practically out of da e
being without the modern improvements
They were armed with smooth bore, muz-
zle loading guns. and weie antequated In
other respects. Great Britain is building
seventeen battleships and fourteen cruisers
10 take their places.
Our navy will still be small when the
ships authorized by this Congress shall
have been completed, but it will be very
effective. The American people will not
be satisfied, however, until they have a
navy as powerful as that of Great Britain
If we keep the Philippines we shall need
a mighty navy.

when Salisbury Was His own

Our London correspondent supplies an
amusing and characteristic story of Lord
Salisbury, says the New York CONNER
cial. 1t is known that the premier is most
careless in his dress, and that he is much
too serious in his mind and occupations
to have much regard for the merely cere-
monial side of life.
For some years this falling produced no
evil results. for Lord Salisbury had a
faithful valet; who looked after him; but
one unhappy day the valet left, and Lord
Salisbury was reduced to his own re-
sources. 1t was Levee day, and the minis
ter was in the midst of serious business
up 10 the last moment. He rushed home,
turned out large bundle of uniforms of
which, of course. he has a quantity, and
took the first that came to his hand, with
the astonishing result that he wore a coat
that belonged to the Elder Brethren of
Trinity House, a deputy lieutenant's pair
of trousers, and a hat of the Royal Arch
ers. Even that was not the worst. He
wore his garter on the wrong side and
things reached their climax in the waist
coat which, dating from an earlier and
less robust period of his life, left between
it and the trousers what was once called,
in the case of another Parliamentarian,
"a lucid interval"

From the New York Tribune.
oh. Paddy dear, an did We hear
The news that's goin round,
The Shamrock will on Patrick's day
In every hat be found.
It's foine St Patricks day We'll have,
His colors bravely seen,
For Irishmen and English will
Be wearing of the Green.
Each Englishman you meet to-day
VIII take you by the hand,
And say, God bless ould ireland!
And long may she stand.
She's borne the bravest fighting men
That ever yet have been:
And it's proud we are to-day to share
The wearing of the Green"
Then if with Tommy Atkins
Your men wear British red,
Let il remind them of the blood
In brotherhood they shed.
So put the Shamrock in your hat,
Fresh gathered from the sod,
And say that every bitter thought
Now under foot is trod.
For as long as e'er the blades of grass
On Irish hills shall grow,
AS long as eer the English oaks
Their spreading verdure show.
Why, We will wear the color
You wear in your caubeen,
And side by side, please God We'll stand,
Both wearing of the Green.
