been night and day on trench duty for

fort, it is hardly surprising that the

his strong and patriotic personality and
his romantic military career would awaken
great enthusiasm. but few were prepared
TO see him the master of such convincing
oratory. He evokes enthusiasm and has
magnetic power. but above these qualities
his speeches are full OF reason and sense
In every speech an exalted conception of

There is not particle OF demagogy in

He is not even adroit. He appeals to the

people, and has helped to put the political
campaign on a higher plane-the duty of
Americans to their country.

PARAMOUNT.

1t is singular coincidence that the word
paramount" which has never figured but
twice in American politics. was introduced
both times by the Democratic party in con-
nection with a policy of national contrac-
ton and hauling down the flag. OF course,
everybody knows that the word means SUI
preme, chief, or above ALL In this sense its
some patriotic duty of highest obligation,
but, curiousIy enough. in both instances in
which the Democracy has used it they
have used it in favor of belittling the Ma
ton and dishonoring the flag. 1t was first
used in 1898 i'm connection with the Cleve-
land policy of defeating the annexation
movement in Hawaii and re-estabishing
the monarchy. One of the first acts of the
Cleveland administration, two days after
his Inauguration. was to withdraw the
Hawaiian treaty Of annexation from the
Senate. where it was pending, and to send
James II. Blount as a special commissioner
to Hawaii to investigate the situation. with
paramount" power TO undo all that had
been done, to haul down the American flag.
and to make terms with the deposed Queen
for her restoration. Mr.. Blount's instruc-
tions. drafted by Secretary of State Gresh-
am. contained the following:
Your authority i'm all matters touching
the relations of this government to the ex-
listing or other government of the island
and protection of our citizens is paramount,
and in you alone, acting in cooperation
with the naval forces. is vested full dis
erection and power to determine when such
forces shall be landed or withdrawn.
This comforting of paramount authority
on Mr.. Blount was an imperial act. The
Constitution provides for ministers, but
not for special commissioners. We had a
minister in Hawaii. who had been appoint
ed by the President and confirmed by the
Senate. President Cleveland, without con-
sulting the Senate, and by his own act.
placed his special commissioner. clothed
with paramount power, over the minister,
thus taking all power out of the latter's
hands One of Mr.. Blount's first acts after
reaching Hawaii was to haul down the
American flag. Notwithstanding this and
other acts of paramount authority, the
Cleveland scheme for the re-establishment
of the monarchy failed.
Now, after seven years, the Democracy
has again drafted the word paramount
into service to emphasize their demand for
hauling down the American flag in the
Philippines. The Kansas City platform de-
clares that "the burning issue of imperial
ism" is 1.-The paramount issue of the cam
| paign." AS Imperialism simply means up
holding the flag in the Philippines, anti
down. Thus, in both cases, the Democratic
| idea Of paramount duty is to dishonor the
! flag.
