1t Is proper to say in this connection
that as rule the American abroad,

gets into conflict with the local au-
thorities of the land he is visiting is
himself to blame. The tourist who de-
ports himself as u gentleman, does not
expect the whole continent of Europe

his benefit, is civil courteous. prompt

HARVARD HoNoRED AT PARIS.

An attractive and interesting exhibit in the
American Education and Social Economy class,
at the Paris Exposition, is the display Of the
Cercle Francois de rUniversite Harvard, which
has been awarded a gold medal and grand prize
in the Glass OF Higher Education. This award
is similar to that given 10 the Congressional
Library at Washington, and to Harvard, Yale
and Princeton universities and is therefore
very great credit to the Cercle.
Among the exhibits of the Cercle appear pho
tographs Of the French lecturers, brought over
to America by the Cercle: Rene Doumic, Ed
Guard Rod, Henri de Regnier also diplomas,
medals, certificates, etc. There were also pos
ters OF the various French performances of the
Cercle and curious and quite original collec-
tion of photographs representing the cast Of
each play. This years play "Le Pedant Joue,"
of Cyrano de Bergerac, attracted Sluch atten.
ton, and the dramatic critics were very eulo.
CYSTIC in their praise.
The exhibit drew a great deal Of attention
from the French literary public, and the Paris
press referred TO it in the most hattering terms
expressing not only admiration for the work,
but also wondering at the perseverance and
sbility Of those who possessed such perfect
knowledge Of the French classics and French
literature

1t is not proven that General Wood
did lack tact In his recent address at
Santiago but II he did, it is much more
certain that the Philadelphia North
American lacks tact in calling atten-
tion to the matter when 1t distinctly
states that the Cubans apparently did
not notice the omission. 1t will be in
bad taste enouh for American papers
to criticise General Wood after the
Cuhans observe any shortcomings that
most able official may have. His
work in Cuba has been such as to
effectually preclude harsh judgment
upon anything he may say in his after
dinner speeches.

Take no Chances.

~ N DECEMBER II, 1893, Presl-
n dent Gompers of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor es-
timated that more than
100000 American toilers were without
employment. In signed article which
was published on January 1, 1898, Mr..
Gompers said: THAT terrible period
for the wage earners of this country,
which began in 1898 and which has
left behind 1t such a record of horror,
hunger and misery, practically ended,
with the dawn of the year 1S97."Less
than a year later, when the Republi-
can administration had been In charge
of the peoples affairs twenty-on
months, Mr.. Gompers said in his an
nual report: 1.-The revival OF industry
which we have witnessed within the
past year is one for general congratu-
latiOn, and it should be our purpose to
endeavor to prolong this era of more
general employment and Industrial ac-
tivity." The best way to prolong it is
to continue in power the administra-
tion which made it possible. Labor
should take no chances.

In the Light of History,

" n 1903 Jefferson paid Napoleon the
Great sl5,0OOOO for Louisiana
l. and the sale conveyed sovereign
rights over all the population
both savage and civilized in that great
territory and they were not asked to
consent to the transfer. Had they re-
belled, they would have been forced
to recognize the sovereignty of the
United States. "The consent of the
governed" was not taken into the ac-
count, and yet our title to that vast
territory is considered valid.
Sixteen years later, the United States
purchased Florida from Spain. With
the sale went the right to control or
govern the people who lived therein.
Five million dollars were paid, and
General Jackson was sent to govern
the territory. Had the people rebeled
1t is not difficult to imagine what Old
Hickory would have done, and had At
kinson or Bryan gone about encourag-
ing resistance it is not difficult to
guess how jackson would have met
the emergency. There would have
been a hanging.
Twenty-nine years later Uncle Sam
made another investment in western
land and paid Mexico 1880, 900 and ac-
qured title TO both land and people of
New Mexico and California. The people
of those then distant regions, Mexi-
cans, Zunis. Indians and all the rest,
We're not consulted, but were gov
crned and well governed, and the re-
gion has become the pride of the nation
and the garden spot of the world
Five years later Southern Arizona and
its people We're acquired in the same
manner without saying anything about
the consent of the governed.
Fourteen years after, $7,2O0,OOO was
invested in Alaska. securing title to
mountain glacier, seals, fish, Indians
Russians and all else the land con-
tained without their consent being
asked or required. Five times have
the United States acquired title to land
and sovereignty over people by pur.
chase. When the government paid

The public school teachers of Scran-
ton are today calling down blessings
on the heads of the school controllers
for delaying the opening of school for
another week in view of the probable
hot weather. 1t would be utterly
impossible for teachers or pupils to
accomplish any work during such ex-
treme heat, and while the time would
be wasted, the evil would be still
