The Alliance Tale Denied.

The Democratic romancers who have
been shouting that the United States had
entered into an alliance with Great Brit
ain have now been hit FROM another
qua, tel. The officials OF the State De.
partment in Washington denied it as en-
phatlcally as they could have done any
story which bears upon its face such
marks of absurdity as the alliance yarn
presents. The British foreign office now
makes an explicit and emphatic denial of
the whole tale. The only thing which
gave the story any plausibility was the
intimation from Lord RoseLerry week
or two ago that England had made GER.
tain advances toward an alliance with
he United States and Germany, but the
British government has shown that the
tale had not the slightest foundation in
fact.
There was no real necessity for those
disclaimers from Washington or Lond n.
No sane person in ther the United
States or great Britain ever believed
there was a shadow of truth in the sto-
ries. An agreement which would put the
United States and England in harmony
on matters of great international con-
cern would be sure to be brought TO the
notice ofthe public very quick ly through
the regular chant els in this country. 1t
would have to take the for IN of q treaty,
and treaties have to go before the Senate
for ratification or rejection. If ratified
there is often some further legislation
needed to put them IN operation, and in
this matter the House has 20 be consult
ed. All this not only takes time, but it
insures the greatest amount of publicity.
An alliance can not be put in operation
by the mere fiat of the officials OF the
State Department at Washington and the
corresponding officers of the govern
ment at London.
of course the reason why the Demo-
Gratis have been circulating those tales
about an alliance is that they suppose the
81 res will somehow reflect on the patr-
otism of the administration, and injure
the Republican party in the election this
year. Not even the most obtuse of Z
| Democratic leaders ever imagined there
was any basis TOR the alliance tales. Such
an agreement. even If it could be put into
effect without the consent OF the Senate,
would be of no benefit to the United
States. All the favors which this coun-
try wants in international affairs it can
get without tying itself to Great Britain
or any other nation. The United States
has free hand in the Philippines. 1t has
gait ed all 1t wanted in the matter of trade
with China. There is 40 issue at the
front or in sight which would tempt the
administration to make any overtures tC
any European nation which would in tho
faintest degree hamper this couutry''
freedom of action on any question whicl
has any chance TO come up in the nea
future. All this is as we'll known to sen
sible Democrats as i: is to Republicans
The alliance tale is like the Morey lette
fraud of 1850 and the rest of the Demo
cratic ante-ele"tion mendacity which ha
been put forward from time 10 time will
the hope of deceiving the unthlnking o
the ignorant, and thus win a few vote
Tor the Democratic ticket.

Where n Bone Lived.

The late Professor Hyrtl of Vienna
was present one day during the examina-
ton of an aspirant for the medical degree
by Professor LANCER. Finally the latter
handed the student n small bone, saying:
"Mr. Candidate, here is a bone. Don't
look at it, but tell me from feeling it what
kind of a bone it is, whether it belonged
to the left or right side of the body and
whether it was part of a man or woman" ="
The poor student blushel from embar-
rassment. There was a large audience
present, and he saw failure staring him
in the face. He cast helpless glance at
Hyrtl who moved about in his chair rest
lessly for moment and then sprang to
his feet. "And tell me, Mr.. Candidate
he cried out, the spirit of anger lighting
up his large blue eyes, after answering
the questions of my dear colleague, the
name of the original possessOr of this
bone and where and in what street he
lived"
This unexpected outburst saved the day
for the poor candidate, but Professor
LANCER ever after declined to conduct an
examination when Hyrtl was present.
