King Leopold Of Belgium.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
I beg space in your valuable columns to
notice briefly a portion of your leader Of
Friday respecting King Leopold II of Bel
GUM. You say: 1.-The personal character
Of this ruler has not secured for him high
place in the worlds esteem. He may not
be as black as he has been painted. But he
Is undoubtedly pleasure hunter, and he
has failed to hold himself with that regard
for public opinion and public usefulness
which his exalted station commands" This
Is very conservative comment compared
with much that is and has been going the
rounds of the press respecting one Of the
knlshtliest and most elegant gentlemen that
has adorned the human race from its birth
to the present time, and to those who know
him they can doubt If his superior can be
produced in all time.
To say that Leopold II is strictly a gen.
ueman answers all the adverse criticism
that Is now being fired at him. He and
those who know him have been amazed at
1t, and thought 1t passing hallucination
that would die as these things usually do
He has never been complained Of there and
Is above noticing all the vile attacks upon
him. To those, I say. who know him they
know 1t is as absolutely impossible for
Leopold to do anything that Is not strictly
in the line of gentlemanly and kingly de-
pertinent as 1t would be for the sun to
shine dark rays. This looks like extrava-
CANT language; but there is no refinement Of
torture, no position of suffering that would
cause him to turn his pure current into a
foul channel. Were he placed today In an
assemblage where the eye could range over
the entire human race Leopold II of Bel
GUM would be selected from the group as
superior man, contact with him would
confirm the choice, and the human race to-
day does not possess his superior.
The writer is not a king worshiper. He
does, however, know and admire the gen.
tleman wherever found, and 1t Is not be-
yond this I write to praise this man, and in
this he cannot be rivaled. All the stories
of cruelty to his hayward daughter are I'M
fortunate and place his friends in a position
of silence; she has not, however in any
way received the slightest wrong at the
hands Of her father, and she will never say
she has. GEO c. TANNER
