"GERMAN DAY."

To-day and this evening the German
American citizens If Wheeling and
vicinity will celebrate by a fitting and
elaborate programme, the landing of the
first German settler, Pastorius, upon
the present site of Germantown, now a
part of Philadelphia, with which it was
incorporated in 1854. There the first
German emigrant to what was after
wards to become the United States of
America, landed on the 9Th day of Octo-
Der, 1888. The proper day of celebra-
ton, therefore, should have been Satur-
day, but to-day has been selected for
good and sufficient reasons.
Weather permitting, and it promises
TO be fair, the celebration will be a
notable one, carried out with all the
energy and enthusiasm of the members
and descendants of that nationality
which has cut so large a figure in the
worlds history for quite two thousand
years. The first of the northern Euro
pean people to make any substantial
progress in the direction of civiliza-
ton, and the earliest to protest against
the power and oppression and thirst
for conquest SO characteristic of the
Romans, they have ever stood for free
ION and national independence, and are
possessed of an inherent love for liberty
1ot surpassed by any nationality upon
5he face of the earth. Unable to wholly
escape from old world ideas and meth
DDS in their native land, millions of
these people have left the Fatherland
for new homes in all parts of the
world, and many Of these millions
found in America their ideal. They
and their descendants now constitute a
very large proportion of our population,
form the very best element of our citi-
zenship, and are among the foremost
opponents of constitutional government
and the staunchest supporters of liberty
of thought and action. None surpass
them in their love for the principles
Of popular government and their devo-
tion to republicans ideas has been

MARK TWAIN'S VIEWS.

Samuel L. Clemens is seldom credited
with serious views upon any question,
but he appears to have dropped humor
for sound horse sense upon the occasion
of his embarkation from England for
his native land. To a special correspon-
lent of the New York World and Pitts
burg Dispatch Mr.. Clemens talked upon
a variety of interesting topics, and was
finally led up to politics, being asked
this question: what are your opinions
about the Presidential contest?" In
reply he said, and his words should be
carefully noted:
II lave not been reading enough to stir
my prejudices or partialities on one size
or the other. But | have formed certain
views about Imperialism, though l don t
know whether the American FEELING favors
our spreading ourselves around the globe
or not. l rejoice that we are withdrawing
from China. 1t is a dangerous business
and we have lone right to get out of 1t
when our work was done.
Then / don't understand what we are
trying to do in the Philippines. l had
rather hoped we were going there as the
protector of the Filipinos instead of their
master. | have never been able to COM
prehend how we came TO De nSntlnB the
natives. Perhaps it is unavoidable. But
/ thought our mission was to defend, not
to kill them. / don't understand at all
how the present situation arose. My idea
was that we We're to stand by while the
Filipinos set up a government according
to their own ideas and worked 1t Out, With
out interference from any other nations.
II fancied that Americas object was to
relieve the Filipinos from Spanish tyran-
ny, not to set ourselves over them by
force. This Filipino trouble has roubled
me right along"
The Philippine business is troubling
a good many people besides Mark
Twain, and it is troubling the admin
istration most of all. If Mckinley and
his fool advisors had 1t to do over again
they would rather have a peck of dough-
nuts than land a single American sol
der on the Philippine islands. With
a comprehensive hind-sight they can
now see that the destruction of the
Spanish feet in the harbor Of Manila
was all America had to do or the far
side of the Pacific ocean. What fol-
lowed, under a mistaken policy, has
cost money, blood and suffering beyond
present computation. And it all rests
upon the head of William Mckinley.

Our Charleston correspondent this
morning furnishes another interesting
budget of "reminiscences of the Repub-
lican Legislature Of 1897, his particular
reference at this time being to the bill
appropriating something over $500
for the payment of claims arising out
of military services rendered the State
during the civil war. His summary of
the provisions of the bill fully show its
peculiarities.

"COPpEHHEADISM..

Taking for its text the fact that the
Parliamentary election now going on
in England is certain to maintain fully
the Ministerial majority, the chief issue
| before the people being the South Afri-
can war, a rabid Republican American
paper remarks that the result shows
| that "copperheadism is equally es-
teemed throughout the world"
The epitnet of "copperhead" deserves
some comment, and the organ referred
to a smart rebuke, and the latter is
well administered by the Pittsburg Dis
patch. of decidedly Republican lean
ings, when it says:
eff that remark means anything it
means that men who exercise the political
right of opposing their government
when 1t carries on an unjust wal against
other people are 'copperheads' 4 his
torical fact that ought to interest Ameri-
cans is that if Morley, Harcourt, Burns
and ~Labouchere are 'copperheads' for OPP
posing the conquest of the South African
republics. the same classification must APP
ply to Chatham, Burke and Charles Fox.
There are few names greater in English

George III. and Lord North carried on
against the American colonies. There was
better technical justification for the as

when an American journal avows an idea
which if accepted would fasten on the
the rights of the American colonies to
freedom the imputation of venom and
treachery."
The rebuke is a timely one. Here in
America those who dissent from the
administration policy as regards the
Philippine war are not "copperheaders'
and have full right to hold and express
their opinion. Neither are they trait

tutional liberty and believing that all
men have equal rights to freedom and
to administer government for them
selves in their own way, and it does
not lie in the mouth of any subservient
follower of the present administration
at Washington to cry them down with
shouts of TRAITORS" and of charges OF
sympathy with rebellion" We who be-
lieve in freedom for ourselves are fully
justified in wishing it for others, and
the day when the American people so
far forget themselves as to endorse
conquest for conquest's sake, and OPP
preston for purpose of s~poilation, will
be a sorry day for the republic.

Novel Ideas for the Odd Fellows Ami

The scheme Of decoration at Progress
Hall for the Odd Fellow Anniversary
celebration tonight is something
unique. Bunting and color is freely
used. but what is unusual under such
circumstances there is nothing indica-
tive of nationality of flags. Everything
IS Odd Fellow. All the various branches
of Odd Fellowship are represented, the
encampment, the lodge and the Rebek-
abs, and all the different organizations
which take part in this celebration. On
the stage is a pure white bell tent with
purple border representing Polyne-
sian Encampment. Among the humor-
Gus features is a tent from which the
traditional goat is just coming out.
In the scheme of decoration all kinds
Of uses are made of the various insig-
mia of the order, triangles, tricolors,
shepherds crooks, and links. The Re-
bekah organizations are represented in
pink and green decorations. The dec
Grafton was designed by G. w. r. King.

or five grammes to the glass. In the
town of Memel alone, it is stated, the
amount thus sold last year was about
$3.50 quarts. and in reality twice this
amount was consumed, the rest being
brought in by smugglers. The effect
is said to be four times more powerful
than an equal amount of alcohol, but
