time he seemed to take pride, if he con-
descended to talk to anybody on this
side, in saying that London is con-
siderable town, that she is the money
center of the world, but this scepter
too, has departed from Israel, so he
mentions it not. He used to tell how
people who wanted money went to
England to getit. Now England, her,
self, is going outside her own confines
for this thing we call money. What
is to come next ? Whence all this hu-
mility? 1t does not belong to the
English as a people, nor to the Eng
lishman as man. He so long stalked
over the world in his rough shod way
and sung pretty songs, and wrote
pretty stories about the sound of the
morning drum circling the earth as
the Queen babe her soldiers rise from
their slumbers, but if the same drum
beats we do not hear so much of it,
the British bull dog does not bay his
deep mouthed notes so often nor so furi-
ously as of old. There is a change in
the appearance of our cousin Tommy
Atkins. He is serious, if not moody.
He will even condescend to notice an
American now whether be had grand
father or not. He, Tommy, is grow
ing generous and is showing evidences
of knowing that other people live.
This needful lesson has been learned
at costly school. Some Dutch pro-
fessors in the Transvaal, an insignifi
cant country so far as the number of
people goes, opened school some time
since for the ''Elimina' ion of self con-
ceit,' and have given the English les
so ns, and they are learning fast. After
while they may become very nice, well
behaved fellows. We hope they will.

TIKI ROYAL TRAIN.

1t may be safely stated that no EN-
peror or Gar, Prince or potentate,
ever travelled in such royal splendor
as Mr.. Mckinley now enjoys on his
trip to alifornia The primary OBJ.
ject of the trip, we are told, is to be
present at the launching of the battle
ship Ohio, which takes place on the
18th day of May, at the San Francisco
ship yards, and we gulp down the state
ment as being a fact. But Mr.. Nc
Kinley has possibly desire to accom-
plish what no other president of the
United States, go far as we know, has
ever before accomplished, and that is
to be the first president to visit many
western States and especially Califor-
mia, while he-the VISITORS president
of the United States. Gen. Grant did
make tour of some of these States
once and visited numerous points that
Mr.. Mckinley will visit, but he was
not Mr.. President, he was only Gen.
Grant at that time. The journey is
said to be without political slgnifi-
canoe, and if a trip can be made by
the president, of such magnitude,
without having political significance
in it. this one possibly is that sort of a
trip. The trip, however, will adver-
tise Mr.. Mckinley largely. He will be
heard of in Europe, Asia and Africa,
much oftener during this journey than
if he had remained quietly at the White
House. Many people who never saw
president of the United States and
never would have seen one, but for
this trip, will have chance to see
whether he really wears crown, Or a
silk hat. They will also have glance
at the Cabinet, and if your Uncle
Hanna had only been of the party, the
grandness, the might and power of
this nation would have been portrayed
to the people of many sections, and
especially the Pacific coast. as no pen
could portray it, or tongue tell it.
These same would likewise have a
a chance to verify the dollar marks on
your Uncle Hanna's clothes, and see
whether there are really as many rolls
of fat on the back of his neck, and
whether his ears are as large or his
lips as thick as he has been pictured. |
If this avalanch of greatness could |
only swoop dawn on the Philippines,
poor little AguinaldO would write |
another "love story" and tell of the
tires istable force" which had driven
him to ask his little people to lay down
their little arms. He could tell them
in terms not yet employed that he had
seen our Great White Father as
1oes Lo, the poor Indian, and that the
Great White Father is himself an sir
,esistabIe force" Some of the Cubans
lave just looked at him, and are said
% have come to this conclusion. They
lid not see the royal train as it swung
rs graceful form out of the station at
Washington, crossed 1.-THE smiling
Blue Potomac" and flashed it's electric
headlight defiantly in the face of the
citing sun, OF the Platt amendment
TOuld have been swallowed with the
ong quaint SeaatOr thrown in. This is
be way we do things in America in
hese days of Republican rule and IN
recedented prosperity.

HAS 1T COME TO THIS7

The b. & o. has issued very attrac
tive little leafiet entitled Reasons
(which informs the public of the
perfection of railroad travel over that
line. It gives succinct history of the
road and undertakes to tell of the
roads, war record-so many people
these days are exploiting their war
record. Like many, the war record of
the B. & o. is to be envied. The little
book is very nice and has pretty pic
lures, but the company did employ a
bum historian to write up the battle
of Antietam or Sharpsburg. 1t is
SAID no historian can tell the truth, we
are inclined to believe it. We know
tn is one did not, possibly could not.
He says: 1.-THE battle of Antietam
commenced on the afternoon of Sept.
IS, but opened up fiercely at dawn of
the 18th, during which time nearly
1000 Federal troops engaged supe
rior force of Confederates fighting
until shutdown without either side
being able to claim a victory"
Now everybody who wants to write
history knows, if he knows anything,
that Gen. Lee did not have 10000 men
in the spring of 1862, much less in Sep
TENDER of that year. Gen. Lees army
had been scattered by the capture of
Harper's Ferry, and was not concen-
rated, and there could not have been,
all told, engaged that day, $4,000 Con-
federates. Gen. Mcclellan had cap
tured dispatch which showed the
weakness of Lee in his front, and tax
ing advantage of that fact pressed with
over 80, 900 men On Lee to overwheIm
him before his troops could be concen-
trated, and it is well known that more
than half of Lees artillery was not up
in time for the battle. No battle of
the war was fought at greater odds and
one showed the intrepid bravery of
the Confederates more clearly than
this one. Mcclellan, of all Federal
Generals, was the one who never would |
attack Gen. Lee on equal grounds |
The summers campaign of 1862 by Lee |
consisted of the defeat of two Federal
armies of over 100, 900, infiicting loss
on the enemy of $4,000 men, 154 pieces |
of artillery and 70, 900 small arms. be-
fore he entered Maryland. Add to
these 1000 prisoners and Y guns
taken at Harper's Ferry, and the killed |
and wounded at Antietam there were
over 100000 lost to the Federals in
flicted by an army never numbering |
over $4,000 men, and on the day of the
battle of Antietam not over $4,000 |
were engaged of all arms.
But there is and has always been a |
desire to belittle the accomplishments |
of the Confederate army, and magnify
that of the Federals. Every device is
resorted to, to impress falsehood on
the mind of the youth. The B. 81 o.
has done this in this instance with
evident malice, School books contain
many such untruths, and there is
constant insinuation, if not direct
falsehood put here and there to catch
the notice, and warp the mind of those
who must read. This seems to be a
part of the one grand plot. We had
no idea it had come to this. If the al
legged comforts of the B. & o. are as
wide the mark as its story of Ante
tam, we doubt the whole proposition.

ENGLISH DECLINE,

Is England loosing her prestige as 6
world power in self conceit? She
has always swayed the scepter in that
fie Id. We feel rather sorry just now
for our cousins across the pond. There

and bred in our plsbean country, who
were short On grand fathers, looked

to his vestments by a string or chain
ready to be inserted, which the wearer
always did in order to look into the
race OF any one present, we suppose to
see whether the person examined was
black or white. In language he was
as strange to us of America as in dress.
He sometimes condescended to Saw
"yaws" or Jaw" whatever that NAV
mean. His principal occupation, so
far as we observed, was to stand in
front of bar and call for another
"glaws Of that hale" or a salf and
alf." He was a very clannish person
in 80 far as his English brethren were
concerned. He found nobody ION this

country about and for arrogance and
