Preparing the Impremptu.

Great orators have generally refused
to speak OH the spur of the moment on
important themes Demostlenes, the
king Of orators, would never speak in
a public meeting without previous
thorough preparation. Daniel Webster,
when once pressed to speak Oh sub
ject of great importance refused, say
ing that lie was very busy, and had no
time TO master It. When n friend
urged that a few words from him would
do much to awaken public attention to
the subject, he replied: "If there be
SO much weight in my words it is be-
cause do not allow myself to speak on
any subject until my mind is imbucd
with it," On one occasion, Webster
made Il remarkable speech without
notes before the Phi Beta Kappa Soci-
ETY. at Harvard University, when a book
was presented to him. After he had
gone, a manuscript copy Of his eloquent
"impromptu' address, carefully written,
was found in the book, which he had
forgotten to take away.-Satulriay

Why Not DonnelIyl

Under this interrogative heading
Hon. Frank A. Day, cx-neutenant gov
ernor Of Minnesota, says in his paper,
the Martin County Sentinel:
The Sentinel was one of the first to
express itself in favor of giving the late
lgnatius Donnclly a place in the hall
of fame Mt the st. Louis exposition.
Since then several other papers, not
blinded by partizan hate and bigotry,
have taken up the idea and given it a
hearty Endorsement. No one will deny
that Mr.. Donnelly had his share of
human weakness but that he was en-,
dowed with mastery intellectual pow
ers has never been questioned.
We most heartily endorse the follow
ing from that able and influential Re-
publican paper, the Duluth News
Tribune:
The press of the state has entered
generally into the discussion Of the
names Of two Minnesotans to be placed
n the st. Louis hall Of fame. In all
lists, Senator Cushman X. Davis leads.
For the second name, many would sell
ect William Window. Others mention
Alexander Ramsey, and II. H. Sibley

| So far as the News Tribune has OBJ
served, no one has suggested Ignatius
Donnelly's name to fill one of the gilt
tering panels of the hall of fame Mt the
Louisiana Purchase expo. Yet he is
the most famous of all men whose
names have been identified with Min
nesota. His belonged to the brother.

He is the only name of Minnesotan

and The Great Cryptogram" are In all
great libraries throughout the English
speaking world, and all over the globe
students of Shakespeare know well the
name of DOnnelly.
And this is fame, too, not notoriety.
Donnelly's books may none Of them be
of permanent value, but they mdoubt-
edly possessed scholarly merit, and
were distinguished for brilliant literary
style. William Il. Gladstone reviewed
"Atlantis,' and, though the great
Shakcspcarian scholars of the day did
not agree with the conclusions of '"rhe
Great Cryltogram," none Of them at
tempted to treat it as something that
should be ignored.
1gnatius Donnelly's political career
was not a success. Some may even
claim that it was not crcllitablc one.
But no objection can be urged against
the genuinencsS of his literary work,
and while we are picking names of
MinnrSOtnnS for lie hall of fame, why
, ignore the most famous!

centuries everything favored the Sax

earth and the riches Of the world and
all the villainy; every country was
afraid Of them, every nation thought
they could defeat the world, they esti-
mated their strength so much, but today
the case is different in every sense. Two
years ago there was a small quiet ma

our enemies are weakening; nobody
cares for nor estcems them. Their SOL
