It was weeks, nay months ago, when

lions, were to be ther main impulse.
The bank was to grows up from the Ma

Consistency IL q Jewel.

Consistency is a jewel-but it seldom
ornaments the snout of the ordinary
newspaper editor: for instance, in a
leading editorial column Of the Chicago
Tribune, rampant expansionist sheet
we find the following:
"Some Englishmen are surprised by
the fact that American sympathies are
with the Beers and against the British.
It would be a cause for surprise II
Americans felt otherwise in the matter
The sympathies of the people of the
United States always go out towards a
weaker people struggling for independ
ence. In the eyes of Americans there
is good deal Of resemblance between
the present plight Of the Beers and the
status of the American colonies in 1775,,
except that the Beers had more inde-
pendence on the start than the Ameri-
cans had. Our colonists took up arms
for the protection of their freedom and
were successful. The Beers are taking
up arms for the same cause. How can
Americans help siding with them and
showing a lack of sympathy towards
the British movement to coerce them?
Think of this: "The sympathies of
the people Of the United States always
go out towards q weaker people strug-
Cling for independence"
Caesars ghost! Did some new editor
fresh from college halls write the
