The shah OF Persia. having been four
wears on the throne, wishes to see the
world. and has planned a long journey.
He will visit ST. Petersburg, berlin. vi
emma, Paris, London and Constant ino-
pie, and will be entertained at all the
courts. It will be costly journey, and
the shah is not reputed to be rich; but
his credit is good, especially in St.
Petersburg. where the treasury is al
ways ready to make advances to ths
ruler of vassal state whose territory
Russia covets. says Youths Companion
Muzaffar-ed-din. the shah, is nearly
80 years old. He looks younger tfian
he is. for there are no traces OF gray IN
his iet-black hair and long, dropping
mustachc. and there are no lines on
his narrow forehead His eyes are soft
and dreamy, the contour of his face is
regular and his smile is that OF an IN
dolent and weak man who can be easily
amused.
He is ruler without strength of
character. who rs believed TO have Sc
cured the throne through Russian sup
port when his older brother had
clearer right to il. and would have re-
sisted foreign influence more strenu-
ously. He is a pleasure-loving sover-
eirn who likes to go about everything
in the easiest way.
Great results may follow the shah's
circuit OF European travel. An empire
larger than France and Germany to-
gether may be opened 10 European
commerce and American railway build
ing; and Russia may find herselfon the
Persian gulf and on the fTonticr of In
dia. while Englishmcn are asking
whether Lord Salisbury was really
dreaming when he declared that there
was groom enough for al. in Asia"

argument in that line conflicts with
the rhetorical fact that until Dewey
destroyed Spain'spOwer in the islands.
there was no organized revolt, and
Aguinaldo himself was in Hong
Kong living upon the proceeds OF u
settlement he had made with the
Spanish authorities. ,
He claimed that the first shot was
fired against the Filipinos in order
to create trouble, and that Aguin-
aldo desired TO overlook the matter
and continue peace. The facts are
that Filipino soldiers insisted on
disregarding the agreed regulations
that they should not extend their
patrols into territory occupied by
American tro ops, and on the eve
ming of Feb. an American picket
was forced to kill one of Filipi no
party who insisted on advancing.
Then the Filipinos began firing from
their blockhouses, and the Americans
from their trenches. The firing con-
tinued all night, and the American
lines advanced and caused the Fill
piuOs to retreat in the morning, and
the war was begun. -.
Altgeld then attacked the increase
OF the army. But Altgeld would be
as bitter against one regular soldier
as he would against any other
number. His anxiety about this
country being crushed down by
militarism was not very alarming
to his hearers.
He didn't make any efforts toward
fiowery oratory. and at no time
aroused any enthusiasm in his audi
ence. He ignored Bryan and had
much to say about the great Kepnb-
leans, who were now "aunties." In
fact he was generous in praise OF
Republican history, and frequently
lauded it's principles and accomplish.
ments. But the party was very bad
now.
Altogether the address was quite
interesting, and entirely lacking In
! convincing arguments against the
Republican party.
