WHENCE CAME THE DIsPATCH.


An alleged dispatch from Washing
ton has found it way into public print
in Paris. 1.-The United States appropri-
ations for the immediate increase of
the navy" it says, will not be aug
mented because of Germany's determin-
alton to enlarge its fleet, since the de-
over a long term of years."
This mysterious dispatch by some
agency has been given peculiar prom
inence and is cited as AN echo" of the
alleged words of Dewey to the effect
that 1.-THE United States next war would
be with Germany"
Of course, Dewey long ago denied maxi
ing such remark alleged to have been
based on the friction between him
and a German Admiral at Manila, who,
by the way, was promptly recalled by
his government.
was not sent from Washington, nor
from this side of the Atlantic. 1t is
much more likely to have come to Paris
across the English channel. 1t will be
recalled that English sources were
shrewdly credited with the manufac-
tured Dewey interviews predicting war
between the United States and Ger
many.
Why should the United States take
special interest in Germany's naval
preparations, the of which all the
world knows was the seizure of Ger
man vessels by the British in Delagoa
bay? Germany's natural preparation to
meet a possible emergency is a matter
in which American concern is remote
and doubtless has been given no more
than the usual p%erfunctory attention at
Washington likely to be caused by the
war-like movements of any foreign
power.
Admiral Dewey promptly explained
that his relations with the German
officers at Manila were most cordial
and SO have been our relations with
Germany otherwise. 1t needs no denial
from Washington to convince us that
the Paris publication was manufactured
out of whole cloth, doubtless being of a
piece with those earlier efforts to en-
broil the United States with Germany
and probably from the same crafty
source whence those emanated.

EDMUND RANDALL.
EX-CONVICT AND
EVANGELIST.

In but a few more years Edmund
Randall will be but a memory to thou
sands of people who have met him and
know his eccentric methods of evange-
lization-a memory to this generation
as Lorenzo Dow is to the generation
preceding us.
The life Of Edmund Randall has been
a failure if we Measure it along COM
mercial lines and the acquisition of the
almighty dollar. He has wasted the
most vigorous and best years o? his life
in incessant labors to attempt 10 bring
the apparently God-forsaken nearer to
Christ. Unlike the wise attorneys or
ministers of the present age, he neglect
ed the dollar. The storms of age now
beat upon him in his infirmity. No
raven m to feed Elijah now.
We have known indirectly of this
strange man for years. In momentary
weakness he committed a forgery and
was sentenced to the State ~penitentiary.
During the service of his term he be.
came attached to the Bible, and upon
his liberation devoted his remaining
life and efforts to the PRONUNCIATION of
the word of God. His methods were
unique. We remember his first appear
ance in Moundsville, years and years
ago.. Hand bills were distributed broad
no CT nfnrpoinn Tho nQnnln that sfThA
works of hell will be assaulted tonight
with red hot shot for the devil and all
his followers by Edmund Randall"
Later he took up another unique man
ner Of work. He carried with him a
paint pot and brush and walked, per-
haps, thousands of miles, for his work
in this line has apparently covered
nearly half the Union. Then another
line he assumed-the writer's knowl-
edge of this has been called to his at
tention very frequently during his wan
behring's throughout the United States
this man Randall persisted in visiting
prisons and jails and would there at
tempt tt console the poor suffering in
mates and also read them whac ne be-
!ieved, appropriate selections from the
Eible.
He has wasted his life in this man
ner.
AS we previously stated, had he asso-
ciated himself with some fine church,
and had been placed upon a salary, he
would nave worn broadcloth and had
little 10 do except perhaps to occasion
ally stir up trouble N his ne!ghhor-
hood.
AS it is, however, his life, reviewed
from this commercial age, has been a
failure. A failure on this little earth
does moi mean a failure Beyond.
We, as a believer in & benifcent and
Just God, feel that when Edmund Ran
dali enters the dazzling portals CT that
eternity that we have all been taught
to revere, there will be angels to
| greet him and a Chris. to extend a
hand and say brother, I welcome
thee" BARON JONES.

OF the country and the general tone
Of the American press. which molds as
well as reflects public opinion.
Many patriotic and well-meaning
Americans have been misled in this
matter by the sympathy and tone of
the money markets and speculative
centers, which, naturally, all sentiment
aside, is a practical unit in favor of
the English cause, since Great Britain
is probably the greatest factor in the
financial world among gold standard
nations. Every English reverse, it
will be noted, upsets the stock market,
while the prolongation of the war
would undoubtedly cause widespread
financial complication if not disaster,
SO closely allied are the financial in
terests of all gold standard nations
with those of England, the bulwark Of
that standard.
Hence, the men OF money who
gather about the ticker" while in
their hearts they may sympathize with
the liberty-loving Beers, anxiously
await British victory for the immedi-
ate good of their pockets and the
market for stocks and bonds. An
able financial writer in Wall street thus
clearly and excellently describes the
situation in that interesting thorough
fare:
"In justice to Wall street it cannot be
said that the sympathies of that commu-
nifty are enlisted wholly On the side of
Great Britain, but the Street views with
alarm and distress any event which serves
to disturb the equilibrium of trade. Times
lave been out of balance since the inaug-
uration of the war in South Africa, and
any contamination which will restore them
to normal conditions will be hailed with
satisfaction by the moneyed interests.
They believe hat the main hope for an
early termination of the embroglio lies in
the success of the British arms. They
fear tina Boer success could only be won
after a campaign which would be accom-
panied not only by great loss of life and
property, but by business disturbances
throughout the world. There is no senti-
ment in their attachment to the cause OF
Great Britain; indeed, it may be truly said
that the preponderance of sentiment in
the Street inclines to the standard of the
courageous little republic which is strug-
Cling so v~alorously to maintain its integ-
rity and it's liberty"

MIR. BRYAN,S EASTERN TOUR.

Mr. Bryan's tour of the East has some
Interesting and remarkable features.
1t is noteworthy that the Democratic

ously and purposely snubbed Mr.. Bryan.
declining one and all to accept seats on
the stage at the Baltimore meeting.
But Mr.. Bryan is a hard man to snub,
and the tremendous enthusiasm of the
rank and file for the Western man was
calculated to shift the burden of I'M
easiness onto the shoulders of the Mary
land Democratic leaders, who seemed
to be without a following on this oc-
casion.
ton received by the great Westerner
in New York city, where he was feted
and toasted by Tammany and sat at
table in friendly intercourse with the
party leaders. All of which has a sig
nificance, which is not the less deep be-
cause it is safe to say that his recep-
ton was not on the initiative of
Mr.. Bryan, who has had good reason to
view the New York Democratic leaders
with suspicion.
Tammany Is not the sort of ~organiza-
ton to get aboard a sinking ship with
It's eyes open, as they usually are. It's
confidence in the Bryan craft, therefore,
is, as the Register has already ramark-
ed, significant.
In the East the Democratic leaders
are anxious for Mr.. Bryan to drop
the silver issue, which he politely but
firmly declines to do. 1t is worthy of
remark in this connection, however,
that among the numerous strong and
vital new issues which events have
placed in the hands of the Democracy,
Mr.. Bryan in his stirring and always
incisive speeches East or West does not
crowd silver unduly to the front, but
meets the issues in the order of and in
proportion to their importance, giving
his attention largely to the trusts in
restraint of trade and especially to that
most vital issue of all raised by the
which
Mr.. Bryan with his intense and feryid
Americanism scores with most telling
effect. That Mr.. Bryan fully appreci-
ates the situation in all it's phases is
evident from his response to a query if
he had a plan to bring the gold Demo-
Gratis" back into the party.
Yes, I a v a. plan. In the first place,
many have already come back. In the Sec
ond place. there are some who never will
come back and it is no use to work on
them. In the third place, there are some
who will return on one or two grounds
either that they now like the Chicago
platform, although they did not in go. OF
that they favor the Democratic position
on new questions that nave arisen since
then and are willing to AXE the whole
platform while not agreeing with every
part of it."
1t is safe to say that Mr.. Bryan's ex-
tended trip East has badly upset the
calculations of several able politicians
