THE PORTRAITSOF OUR PRESIDENTS
With Biographical Sketches
BY
General Charles H. CroSvenor
Title mage deeioped NV Tiffany

This Inaugural year, when the public mind is ar
oused over Presidential questions, is fitting time to
issue General Grosyenor's book. Its sale is already
tremendous, and will perhaps exceed that Of General
Grants Memoirs.
Eve patriotic American desires to read what Gen.
eral Grosvenor has to say Ct George Washington,
Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Line
oln, President Mckinley and other Chief Executives
OF the Nation, Everybody desires to read what Gen.
eral Grosvenor, that Staunch old Republican leader
IN Congcess, will say Of that staunch old Democrat,
Andrew Jackson, the Fathor Of the Democratic Par
y. Gencral Grosvenor has thrown into his sketch OF
Jackson all the fire and energy of his nature. The
biography Of Thomas Jefferson is grand The Bit G.
taphy OF Lincoln is as beautiful sunrise over the
hiltops. Gen. Grosvenor has personally known all
tho Presidents since the time of James Buchanan.
The Generals book will therefore contain history
which has never been published, written from his
own peronal observation of these great men. Gen.
Grosvenor has served in Congress for nearly twenty
years, and he has served his country in war and in
Congress for nearly forty years. The book contains
tweuty-four large Photogravure Etchngs as fineas
Stke Plates, printed by hand, on heavy plate paper
made especially TO order. These a. Photogravure
Echings are in different tints and well worth S.
| each. These portraits are made from the paintings
endorsed by the family and near relatives Of the Pre-
sidents. Two years time and fortune have been
expended in securing these reproductions. The COM
plete book is well worth $50, but the price has been
placed so low that the most humble American citizen
can own il. The biographical sketches are printed
in large open type in two coors the work is SO beau
tiful that when people il they want it. The adj
vance sole is very largo. President Mckinley was
the first subscriber. There is one edition known as
The President Edition de Grand Luxe, initial letters
baud painted Portraits hand colored, title page hand
illuminatedi registered and numbered; price s7so.

There have been several disappoilt-
ments resulting from the capture Of
Aguinaldo. aside from those felt by
the GclUdcd Tagals who had been
led to his influence to resist Amcri-
can authority. 1t was II bitter disap-
pointmcnt to the INSTRUMENTATION
cotcric that he was not put to some
form of martyrdom 50 that they might
lave the coveted opportunity of
hurting more invectives at the
"despotic opprcssor'' in Washington.
They expected him to be put to death
without delay. and Garrison had a
series of sonnets composed to cels-
bratc this final extinction of frccdo' n s
light i'm the Philippines. But their
threnody is yet unpublished. ana
there is impotent rage EnawinE at
their hearts against the obstinate gov
tyr of their hero. And there ds also
bitter disappointment in the soul OF
the littl,. brown rascal himself. lie
expected to be treated as a prisoner
of great Importance. and possibly
brought to this country for con-
ference with the President.
Instead of all this, Aguinaido has
been treated and will be treated ike
any ordinary captured insure ent. His
c,nture was most gratifying, par
ticularly for it's effect in this country
where it has taken the last vestigc of
wind out of the sails of the ''anti-im-
perialistic' movement, but he aas
ceased to be such an important per-
sonage that his disposition requires
any serious amount of official con-
sideration. AS the light has gradually
reached his darkened brain and he
has seen the true situation. he has
chcerfully accepted American
sovereignty. as have most of the late
leading insurgents. Perhaps, la,er.
when his lenient Captors turn him
loose to shift for himself and grow
up with the islands whose welfare he
tried so hard to injure, he will come
to America and get a museum or side
show engagement. There. with his
tin whistle tied around his neck and

and congenial environment.

1t has been freely prophesied that
the movement in recent years toward
the consolidation of capital and the
concentration of energy-in other
words. the organization of trusts in
manufactures and trade-woull re-
suit in the widespread ruin Of in
dividual concerns. In many quarters
such a result has been philosOphically
accepted as inevitable. and great has
been the anticipatory mourning for
the devastation that would follow in
the trail of the awful octopus. SUIT
where are the expected victims? If
the mercantile agencies cannot dis
cover the individual concerns that
have been ruined by the trusts. who
can find them?
The reliable Bradstrcets has issued
statement that not in ii years have
the failures in this country been so
few as they have boon in the first
quarters respectively of 1892 1900.
and 1901. In 1888. at the close of
Clcveland's first term, the business
death rate reached record breaking
figures, and the largest number of
failures recorded in any quarter
since then was in 1896 when Cl"ve-
lands second term was near it's
close and the free silver agitation was
at it's height. Since 1883 the popula-
ton of the country has increased 25
per cent. and a vastly greater amount
of business is transa cted, and that
there should be SO many fewer COM
mercial collapses now than there
We're then shows the general distripu-
ton of our present prosperity. If the
small competitor is being driven
out of business" as the octopus
hunters have prophcsied, he is max
ing his own terms and is not going
into bankruptcy. In fact, the
octopus theory looks like 30 cents
when the failure statistics. are pre-
scented. There arc dangers in trusts
but the dangers are not worth The
wailing they have caused, and they
are much less imminent than Other
dangers which the Octopus-hat ter:
would put in the nations pathway.
