Emperor Williams
Remarkable Speech.

Addressing the detachment Of
German marines, which sailed from
Wilhelmshaven for China the ether
day, Emperor William made a re.
markable speech, in which he noti-
fed the world of Gsrmany's inten-
ton to avsnge the murder of Baron
Won Ketteler, the late Minister OF
Germany at Peking, and the mis-.
sionaries, and to dictate terms to
the Chinese from the Palace at Pc
kin. He spoke in part as follows:
"The firsbrand of war has been
buried in the middle OF the most
profound peace. Unhappily this was
to me not unexpected. A crime of
unspeakable insolence, lorrifying in
its barbarity, has been committed
against the person Of my trusty re.
preventative, and has taken Lin
from us. The Ministers of the other
Powers hover between life and death,
and with them, comrades sen for
their protection. 1t may be that
while l speak they have already
fought their last fight.
''The German flag has been in
suited, and the German Empire
treated with contempt. This de-
mands exemplary punishment and
vengeance. Events have moved
with frightful rapidity and have be.
come profoundly grave. Since 1
called you to arms what l hoped to
effect with the help of the Marine
Infantry has noae become a difficult
task, which can only be fulfilled with
tke help of the serried ranks of all
civilized States.
Do not rest until the German flag
joined to those Of the ether Powers,
floats triumphantly over Uhina's
flag, and until it has been planted
on the walls of Pekin, to dictate
peace to the Chinese.

Amendment of Libel
Law Proposed
in France.

A bill which M. Joseph Fabre,
Senator for Aveyron, has just laid
before the French upper chamber
deals with the burning question of
press libel. The Senator in common,
with the great majority OF thinking
Frenchmen, is alarmed and indlg-
nant at the growing license Of the
newspapers. 1t is generally conce.
ded that the present Ministry has
been the recipient of more abuse than
any of its predecessors. A few
sample epithets are appended, NJ.
Waldeck- Rousseau has been refe.
FRED to frequently as ian alligator y
the Minister for Foreign affairs as
"Chamberlain's valet,' the Minister
of Marine as Espirate,n while Gen.
Andre, the new Minister OF War,
has already been denounced az a
traitor 10 the service Of Germany
and an understudy of Dreyfusl The
President of t1e republic has been
christened "Loubet the Sameful''
and "Panama", while even his wife
has been brutally attacked. Such
epithets as "traitsr,", ssbandit, 7
''thief", and s.filibustern are in such
common use that they almost have
lost their original Significance. To
put an end to, or at least to check
the abuse, N. Joseph Fabre proposes
that presslibel, shen directed against
the Chief Of the State, shall be pu.
pished as felony, and that All pu-
lblic officers shall have the right te
bring actions in the civil courts aga
inst tie offenders.

The Position of the
"GOld Democrats"

As it is generally believed in the
United States that the detection Of
the "Gold Democratsn from Bryan
in 1896 was the principal factor in
comprising the election of Msjo-
Mckinley as President, the question
as to what action they will take in the
present campaign becomes a matter
Of serious concern to the managers
Of both the Republican and Dems.
cratic parties.
Their voting strength in the last
Presidential election is largely a
matter of conjecture. They srgani-
zed themselves inte a separate party.
under the name Of the National
Democratic Party, held a National
Convention at indianapolis, and put
a full Presidential ticket in the field
With Palmer and Buckner IS cand:-
dates. The vote for their ticket is;
OF course known, but this forms no
adequate basis for estimating their
numerical strength.
Large numbers of them, feeling
that sn independent ticket had no
possible chance, and that vote for
it was practically thrown apay,
voted directly for Mckinley as the
best means of attaining their object
namely, to defeat Bryan and his
proposition for the free and unlimir-
cd cslrage OF silver at fixed ratio
of 16 TO l witn gold.
And there can be no Doubt that
the votes Of these men, which, being
. change from Democratic to Rep.
ubliesn, had practically a double
effect, decided the election in several
of the closely contested states.
Now, the question arises, will
these men repeat their united action
Of iour years ago, or toill . great
majority Of them return to their
anciens allegiance, and support TIE
Democratic ticket.
In the first place the niitions
are materially altered. True, the De-
mocratic Party has nominated the
ssme candidate as before, and in the
platform the 16 to / plank is again
inserted.
But thsre is this difference, and q
very important one. In 1896 piac
ticelly the sole issue Of the campaign
was the financial question. The
Democratic Party staked all ON free
silver.
In addition, the issue was essen
TALLY live one. Had Bryan been
elected, end Democratic Congress
elected with him, which would natu-
rally have folloUed, he would have
been in position to haye put bis
financial theories in practice, and to
have incorporated them into the
statute law Of the United States.
1t was to ave-s thq danger that
the followers Of Palmer and Bncknti
refused to- act with The Democratic
Party, Of which most OF tnem rad
been ltfel"ng niemhers.
But tnesr Do such danger now.
