and is averse to publishing all his
business secrets. All business men
are opposed to makinga public ex-

What a shame it is. to annoy q

of side issues at the very moment
when he is undertaking to confer
four years more Of Office on Mr..
Mckinley and his army of subordi-
natcs-at least all of them who will
escape exposure and conviction of
jobbery in public affairs. AT this
interesting moment there are men
making fuss about the subsidy
bill. There is fierce demand for
an investigation Of the Cuban steal
ing, and the extension of the in
quiry, so that the rascals who have
been hidden up to date will be set
naked before the world. There is
an eminentIy respectable request for
an immediate adjudication of the
question as to whether tho Consti-
tuition of the United States extends
over Porto Rico or not. There is
also an active inquiry as to when
the troops, as well as the Generals,
are coming home, now chat the war
in the Philippines is cover Some
people arc inconslderate and imper
tinent enough to intimate that only
will there be no return of troops,
except in cofins, but that great
many more soldiers will be sent out
after the election in November.
Can't the American people, with
all their boasted intelligence, see
that this is not the time to bother
Mr.. Hanna? Are they unable to
discern the fact that this is his
busy season and that it is not polite
to ask embarrassing questions.

Heroes and Hero worship.

The contrast between the present
lavish reception Of Admiral Dewey
IN Chicago and st. Louis, says the
Atlanta Constitution, and tae sting
ing ridIcuIe which greeted his
presidential announcement a few
weeks ago, furnishes food for in
teresting reflection. 1T indicates
to the most casual observer that
gracious "public" which is SO often
quoted and misquotod has special
niche in its mind for each prominent
man, and that when said prominent
man attempts to occupy some other
niche, he is rebuked with killing
sternness and lack Of ceremony.
George Dewey as a popular hero
was and 8 an unparalleled success.
AS presidential candidate he is all
that excites our ridicuIe, regret and
sympathy. When he smashed the
Spanish feet in Manila bay two
years ago, he sprang to position
in the public mind little short Of
ldolatry. Ills subsequent conduct
in untangIng the complicated skein
of affairs which threotened trouble
with other nations. brought him
brighter laurels, and when he land

at Washington, face to face with another

FROM the latest news, it appears that
the Bo srs have about reached their last
ditch in their unequal struggle. Their
envoys have reached the United States
and may be wined, dined and otherwise
courteously entertained, but their real
mission will remain bare Of results.
The Kansas City Times remarks That
the president can't understand why those
stubborn Boer envoys could not have re-
mained at their hotel in Amsterdam, or
Ro terdam, or some other prolane Dutch
town, and sent him word what they want
ed him to do by mail. This might have
enabled him to have told them that he
will not do il without AT the same time
offending so many hundred thousand
Boer sympathi2ers among the voters.

One would suppose it was well known
that the cid Corcoran Gallery is now one

hrim by a clerical force occupied with

Congress for the purchase of this property
is not remotely concerned with any art

the building is needed for housing Gov
eminent employees. Some time ago it was
refitted for such purpose, and is now rented
by the Government and occupied by the
Court of Claims. The flooring over the hem

eisl exhibition of local work. That the Con

friendliest possible spirit, which cannot be
said of much of the ut-of-town newspaper
comment, does not in the least dull the
edge of its humorous aspect. 1t has af-
forded no little amusement in artistic cir

success of the recent exhibition was con-

She was not at all vain. but she did

had spent three afternoons trying on the
stock in trade of fifteen milliners. and the
moment she saw this hat on its pedestal
she knew it was hers. She believed In a

and the clothes she ought to have. When
the hat came home she put it on for the
benefit of the five girls with whom she

mirror treasured her. and she walked into
