Wa, Manchester's Best Man and Comes Here

Ernest Lambsrt, nephew Of the Earl OF
Cayan and Chief Equerry TO the Princess
Amalia Of Schesw e -Holstein. but pretty
good fellow for all that, arrived yesterday
aboard the North German Lloyd steamship
Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, and was greeted
on the pier at the foot OF Ganseyoort street.
by his friend Duke OF Manchester. The
Duke was cheerful and colloqual and every
body who saw and talked with him. including
the reporters. whose profession be made
an effort To break into, declared unanimously
that lac was the only man in Burkes that ought
to he put out of IL and on the limited and er-
elusive list OF American dukes. Lambart
was the Dukes best man on the memorable
occasion when he entered into an American
alliance.
The Dukes friend. Lambart wss inclined
to be serious with the reporters. but the Duke
with d proper appreciation OF the YANKEE
spirit of persiiiage. resolutely refused TO let
him "jolly" the reporters. Lambart had
said with solemnity that lie was an actor
The Duke, as nm ex-re porter was appealed
to. and he declared that the only acting that
l.mbart had ever taken part in was at Cam
b idge and that IL was only in u small way :.
The Duke ventured 10 assert that his friend
Lam art was not even 50 good an actor as
himself In answer to. an inquiry about
Limb ,rts matrimonial intentions IN America,
the Duke sdld lie believed thnt MS iTlenu

was not Recognized when he attempted TO

that he was barring the way OF nobn Y with
"A plss and the cop eaid he begged the Duke =
pirdon and allowed him TO go OF and greet
his friend, Lnmbart.
Ihe Duke found stout and inpassye
Teutonic sailorman at the slIJ end OF the
gang plank The TeutJn barricaded the
way and the Duke tried to explain things
in English The Teuton hesitated He thus
was lost as the Duke shouldered him aside and
pas scd aboard the shin. He found other
German folks intercepting him and decided

iell to right and oft of him. as he is vigorous
person and an eX-reporter lie met l.ainbart
AZ the top OF the companionway and they
shook hands cordially. singing America
and Cod Save the Queen. while the startled
Germans crowded around, wondering why
a man should break into a respectable liner
with such unusual violence.
The Duke and Lambart did not get away
from the pier until nearly noon. Laiubart
explained that two of her Graces trunks"
were away down in the hold and that it re-
quired two hours to get them up through
the tangle Of baggage and cargo and put
them on the pier. Lambart said he was
in the hands of the Duke and had no pl lans.
The Duke said he was going to give Lainbart
II good time and that he. the Duke. the Duchess
and l.ambart would start for Washington
last night in n special car over the Baltimore
and Ohio road for the South TO see all the fine
country below Mason and Dixon's line.

not believe that the officials of Great
Britain violated the secrecy of our
communications to our accredited rep
resentative, and think the investi-
cation to be made will show as much. .
ITO show the learning of Mr.. Gage
on the subject the PLAIN DEALER
subjoins evidence of the violated Sc
crecy" Of United States official com
munications.
Why this Asinine Appointments
The Pittsburg Dispatch says My Gage
is quite frank about his classification
of Mckinley appointee, but insists
that sit still appears to leave open a
point upon which the people might
like some enlightenment. For in
stance, if the administration, of which
the secretary is a member, appoints
an ass to foreign consulate, does the
fact entitle foreign government to
open the official letters addressed to
the alleged donkey? If so, is it the
asinine character of the appointee or
the asinine principle of selection on
which he got the place that nfers
that valuable privilege on foreign
imperial world power?"
IA National Matter.
The Minneapolis Times takes up the
matter apart from that of the person
ality of Mr.. Macrum, and declares it a
national matter. Not Macrum, but
the nation" Further on the subject,
it says:
Republican organs act like nervous
beldames when Macrum's name is
mentioned and thunder or Shrek as
the mood affects them. Who cares fol
Macrum? If he is liar the fact car
readily beproved. He has, or asserts
that he has envelopes with the violat
ed seal of these United States and al
discriminating tag with V. r. on them
to Fix the responsibility of violation.
Representative Wheeler says Macrum
showed him such an envelope and a
New York paper has photograph OF
an envelope and the Endorsement OF
the censor. Wheth Macrum is Mil
tonian or simiam in intellect has
nothing to do with the case; neither
! has Mr.. Hays denial, which, by the

TURNING TO THE DEMOCRACY.
Boilers of 1896 Are Correcting Mis-
takes Which Have Come Home
to Them.

In the campaign of 1896 many demo-
Gratis, stubborn in their personal con-
victions, bolted the Chicago platform
and aided 10 elect William Mckinley
president.
That this was mistake these con-
scientious but ill-advised men are now
ready to admit.
Among those who helped the repub-
lican party to Its success was former
Gov. Chamberlain, soldier of the union
and somewhat of an Independent in
politics.
In letter given to the public, former
Gov. Chamberlain says:
The real live issues so far as can now
be seen, are imperialism and trusts. On
both these issues the republican party
is hopelessly wrong. Under McKinley's
lead we see our government embarked
on a current which is carrying us stead
lily away from all our characteristic,
historical and traditional mornings"
After discussing the nature of trusts
and showing their evils, he says:
"But IN any case, whether trusts are
or are not a mere economic growth, the
evils and dangers that come with them
are obvious. In either case and under
either view the republican party is their
natural and actual ally. Its sordid
spirit, its sordid leadership, its sordid
methods, all that gives it present pow
er and vitality, make it the party of
trusts. Not one ray of hope, only the
thick darkness Of despair, lies in that
direction"
Coming from q man of political ex-
perience who voted for Mckinley, these
expressions have especial weight.
h, But, after shh efB,iing the venality of the
republican party, the former governor
turns his attention to the question
whether the democratic party is more
dangerous than the republican. Apro-
pos of this, he says:
ITO me the answer is easy. The dem
ocratic party is the party which can
alone be looked to for any real opposi-
ton to Imperialism or to trusts; and by
opposition to trusts mean their pre-
vention, if need be, or in any case their
proper regulation. Mr.. Bryan consid
er better than his party. No one ques-
tons his personal character; no one
would think of ranking him below Nc
'Kinley in ability, and l should rank him
many degrees above. His political in
tegrity, his fidelity to the principles he
lavows, I think is as well assured as that
of any politician now in sight. deem
lit, therefore, fortunate that Mr.. Bryan
lis to-day the undisputed leader of his
party"
Thus it is that the mistakes made by
,well-meaning men in 1896 are being cor
.rected in 1900. The republicans have
failed to give the country good govern
ment, they have proved a menace to the
rights and liberties of the people and
they will be retired from public posi-
tions by the results of the fall elections.
