THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

create new conditions to be treated,
and occasion some differences of opin-
ion in its ranks, but there is no reason
to doubt that these differences will be
composed in the spirit of harmony and

The relation of the republican party
to the country is one of great RESPONSE
bility, and the post of responsibility is
always one of difficulty. 1t must he
the conservative party, for the business
interests of the country look to 1T for
security, for the maintenance of the
stable conditions that are necessary
to the free investment of capital and
the regular employment of labor. 1t
must preserve the country from eM-
pertinent and alarm. And yet it must
be responsive to the developments OF
the time, it must provide the measures
OF reform and justice that new condi-
tions in society require, and steadily
satisfy the public that its policies are
directed for the general good.
The times in which we are acting
are full of events of rich and momen-
tous interest. 1t is a period of unres;

effort in all classes of society, and OF

POTATOES AND THE RAIN.
IDnNannnrt DemOcrat.


Potatoes are all growing into
tops" said /; farmer Monday. The
rains have produced too much activ-
ity making the tuber all vine. Late
potatoes will catch the devil If the
rain doesn't let up soon. Early Ohios
are safe because they got good start
before last weeks downpour began.
What we want is warm weather, and
plenty of Gods sunshine"
Potatoes are now selling, for carries,
on the vendors wagons, for so cents.
If the weather turns favorable the crop
will be immense. If it doesn't late po-
tatoes will certainly suffer. The tuber
can not form or mature in water.
John Hyland, a we'll known Pleas
ant Valley farmer, says that late po-
tatoes are drowned and that too mucA
moisture is troubling the early crop.
He says the early ones are showing
symptoms of rot, and emphatically
states that the late potatoes are grow
ing all into tops, and are already lay
ing down on the mucky earth which
will, if the weather doesn't change,
rot them completely. He wants sun
shine and plenty of it.

NO SPLIT ON TARIFF.

tWdleIlOO TNSpolS SA.l
Those who have been hoping for
a ruction among Iowa republicans
over the question of tariff are likely to
be disappointed. Gov. CumminS has
declared himself to be in favor OF a
tariff plank similar to that adopted
by the state convention last year, and
his views are pretty generally endorsed
by all, newspapers and speakers,
who have expressed an opinion In tho
discussion brought out by the gov
errors utterance. There has been no
criticism of that view, and it seems
more than likely at this time that 1t
will be given expression in the plat
form to be made at Des Moines.
A renewal OF faith in that tariff
plank at this time is a logical conclu-
sion of Iowa republicans, and 1T Isl
expected they will stand for expressed
convictions rather than to straddle oil
to shrink from their responsibilities.
Iowa republicans favor the protective
principle and stand vigorously for it,
At the same time they are as strongly
in favor of such changes in any sched-
ule as changed industrial and CONF
mercial conditions may warrant. Fro
tective principles with them means a
progressive policy under which it is
neither sin nor sacrilege to demand
reimbursement when it is apparent tho
needs of the country will be better
cared for than by unyielding adher@
ence to limitations that We're usefu,
when prescribed, but which have serv-
ed their purpose and are now harm
full instead of helpful.
Iowa republicans will not lose sight
OF the beneticent influences of pro-
lection. But it is as unreasonable to
believe they are in favor of intermin
able continuance of schedules once
fixed as it is to apprehend that they
are ready for unauthorized tariff for

CROWNS OF THE
- WORLDS RULERS

| In the matter of costliness the crown
1t is computed 10 be worth e17600 600.
But it is not the most imposing of Eu-
ropean crowns. The iron crown of Lom-
hardy IS said to be the Oldest and state
liest of moparchs' crowns. 1t is gravely
declared to be made out Of the nails of
the original cross. and is said to be
1900 years old
King Oscar of Sweden has not only
two crowns. but, although Sweden and
Norway are now one kingdom, the Swed-
ish King receives two coronations.
The crown has no part in the inaugu-
raj ceremony of the King of the Bel
gians, who merely swears to preserve
the constitution and to observe the laws.
While some monarchs have no crowns,
others have several. The Car Of Rus
sia has a large assortment. Among the
headpieces of the Gar are the crowns
of Kiev. Kasan. Siberia, Astrachan. Po-
land. Finland. and the Crimea
Spain originally had no crown, and
there is no actual coronation now.. the
monarch only taking an cath similar to
that of the King of the Belgians. But
though not actually invested with the
round and top of royalty, Spanish King
has a crown Of a very costly and elab-
orate design. though it originally was
only plain band of-gold.
The Sultan of Turkey has no crown,
and nothing of the kind is employed in
his investiture' with despotic power. His
authority is frankly the power of tine
sword. Instead of coronation. the Sui
tan is girt with the sword OF Gilman.
Take it with faith" is the injunction,
for you receive it from God"

bombastic pomp of other occasional
poems, and from the taint of scholasti-
cism, while adding the suggestiveness
which old and strong words born of race
history invariably gives. The odd lr-
regularity of form is another thing
which Immediately strikes the reader
in the opening lines:
Sire. we have looked on many and
mighty things
In these eight hundred summers of re-
nown,
since the Gold Dragon of the Wessex
Kings
On Hastings field went down:
And SLOW ly in the ambience of this crown
Have many crowns been gathered, till
today
How many peoples crown thee. who
shall say?'
The touch of Indebtedness and OF
question in the last line is pure genius;
and so also is the brief summary of the
making of the empire, in the following
lines. The sombre northern ina gina
tion. ever barking back to the idea of
Fate is shown in the significant lines:
For waters have connived at our design,
And winds have plotted with us-and be-
hold,
Kingdom in kingdom, sway in oversway."
A notable instance of the poets use
of monosyllables is seen little fur
ther on, when he compares the crown.
as symbol of sovereignty, to the Stone
OF Sconc which, he tells King Edward
Thy namesake from the northward reft
away.
Symbol of sovereignty and spoil of fray,
And closed in Englands throne.
So wide CT girth this little cirque of
gold.
So great we are. and ofd.
Proud from the ages are we come, o
King"
Here are four lines with only two
words not monosyllabc.
In the next stanza we have two or
three phrases which deserve to live.
William the Conqueror is pictured:
He that came
And smote US into greatness"
perhaps has never been more
exactly described than here:
And she, a queen, but fashioned king
like
And once more there is the solemnity,
the mystery, the eerie. inevitable es-
sence of fatalism, in the concluding
strophe
''All these, 0 King, from their seclu
sion dread.
And guarded palace of eternity.
Mix in thy pageant with phantasmal
tread.
Hear the long waves of acclamation roll.
And with yet mightier silence marshal
thee
To the awful throne thou hast inherited.
Some of the finest imagery is to be
found in the description of the corona
tion glories. 1t is full of phrases.
High on the noon and summit of the
year"
Could aDter expression be found for
the time chosen for the coronation?
And here are three lines which express
the curiously unreal effect of such a
pageant. by implication. as perhaps 1t
has never been done before:
Now the long glories prance and tri-
umDh by
And now the pomps have passed. and we
depart
Each TO the peace or strife of his own
heart"
Here, too. are the lines which sug-
sest, without actual mention. one Of the
most significant features Of the ceIe-
ration as planned-the coronation bon
ire. custom as old as the Celtic
races and indissolubly linked with their

and:
1t is the close of the day of rejoicing.
And high on Druid mountains hath the
sun
Flamed yalediction, as the last lights
died

side
'unders the lovely and the lonly bride
That we have welded but have never /
won"

Earlier in his life King Edward could
make a tour of the golf links as quickly
as any amateur, and his prowess at ele-
phant hunting is history in the jungle
country. lie could handle yacht as well
as any sailor before the mast. his bags
as deer stalking have made records in
the game preserves OF England.
Only a few months ago the King, dur
ing the few days he spent at Balmoral.
showed that his aim was as sure as
when. during his Indian tour in his
early life, he established the record OF
bringing down six tigers in one day
Years ago he showed his skill as deer
stalker. In the forest of Mars seven
stays fell before his gun in one day.
Once, when shooting at Chlllingham
Park. he brought down in a single shot
the king OF the herd" of the famous
wild white cattle there.
More than once in stag hunting the
King, then the Prince of Wales. has had
narrow escape. On the occasion of the
big hunt at Compiegne with Emperor
Napoleon III a big stag suddenly turned
and charged his horse at lightning speed.
Animal and rider were hurled to the
ground with 4 shock. but the prince re-
gained his feet with a bound, and his
first effort was to save the horse.

The royal schemers arranged that the
prince should visit his sister. the then
Crown Princess Frederick of Prussia.
and continue his journey to places OF
interest in the Rhine district. The Prin-
cess Alexandra was also taken by her
father on an improving tour" among
the old German cities. One day, on
September o. 1861. when she was study
ing the frescoes In the cathedral Of
SDiers, the prince. with his suite, en-
tered the building with the same inten-
tion. The face of the princess banished
all thought of frescoes from the princes
mind.
Next day the two parties met again
at Heidelberg and the prospective lovers
luEched together. The young people
were much pleased with each other, and
the chance" meeting so carefully
planned, brought about the much sought

poet has somehow suggested in these
last lines the imperishably beautiful
Celtic music
Later he refers to the other countries
of the United Kingdom in these words:
Thy England; with the northern sister
fair
That hath the heath-bells in her blow
ing hair,
And the dark mountain maid
That dreams forever in the wizard
shade.
Hymnirg her heroes there"
There is in this division of the poem
another of the authors qualities strong
ly indicated; namely, TIE suitipg of
sound to sense He can make not only
word-pictures. but word music in every
line. and both are in his verse of forgot
ten Kingdoms and races.
"Deira with her sea-face to the morn.
And Cumbria sunset gazing; moist
Divnaint.
A realm CT coombs and tors; old great
From Dee to Severn, where the bards
were born
Whose songs are in the wind by Idris'
chair.
Whose lips won battles"
What inspiration of wizards dictated
the use of two words of such ghostly
resonance as "coombs and tors In the
third of these lines. followed by the
rustling hiss of the next two? All four
words go back to the Saxon If not be-
yond him, and their use in this juxta-
position produces weird impression of
prehistoric spooks. Another mastery
phrase refers to the ocean.
with long grope OF his desultory hand
The blind landward reach OF the sea is
exactly suggested.
The concluding strophe begins with
these significant words:

dimmed at all;
Or perish of much cumber and array.

pail;
Or. OF voluptuous hours the wanton

fate,
And vain against her gate

The note of today, common to the
younger and braver writer's of England.
is again struck in the last lines:
Already is doom a-spinning. if IN

In leisure of ancient pathways she lose
touch
OF the hour, and overmuch
Recline upon achievement. and be slow
To take the world arriving. and forget
How perilous are the stature and part

The hates that watch and crawl.
Nor must she, like the others. yield Up
yet
The generous dreams, but rather live

Benignant on the mitigated sea;
That greatly loving freedom loved to 1

And was herself the bridal and embrace |
or strength and conquering grace
Truly, the England which is 80 loved |

the degenerate and effete land which /
some would make her. Perhaps the best
of this poem. fine as 1t is. Is the note of
genuine feeling which is striker. Its
point OF view Is that of the strongest
and most liberal thinkers Of England:
the feeling which Il expresses is tenn
pornte, strong. and loyal. 1t should add
much to the fame OF its author.

years ago at Kcnsington Palace. ard Is
the eldest child and only daughter Of
the Duke Of Teck and Princess Mary
Of Cambridge, Queen victoria's first
cousin, and most popular member OF the
English royal family.
The Princess and her mother. the
Duchess Of Tcck. had their sitting room
in the wing once occupied by the King
when Prince OF Wales. when he was
first allowed by his parents the dignity
Of 4 bachelor establishment.
This business room and boudoir COM
bined clearly showed how the Princess
and her mother spent their time. The
list of their good and charitable works
cannot be given within a limited space.
Suffice it to say that both took the

works.

When the Prince OF Wales ascends
the throne as George his subjects will
have the satisfaction of knowing that
he has a practical knowledge-to his
cost, it may be added-of the good, old
fashioned word spanking" When serv-
ing as a midshipman he declined one
night to turn out, as he should have
done, to go on watch. His fellow-middy.
whom he was designated to relieve. and
who wanted to turn in. endeavored to
arouse the Prince.
The Washington times., 1902-06-29

Princess May, as she was then known,
had a plainly furnished sitting room of
her own close to the little study used
by her three brothers when they were
at home. There, after the death OF her
afiianced husband. the Duke of Clar-
ence. she would sit for hours together,
gazing listlessly through the large win
dows at the beautiful landscape beyond.
The once 90 gay and joyful princess had
become an entirely different being. Her
sunny smile had disappeared, and her
light-hearted. merry laugh ceased to
echo as of yore through the halls and
passages of the White Lodge.
Today the Princess is characterized
by most charming and gracious man
ner. which. more than her beauty. has
endearcd her to the people of England.
The Washington times., 1902-06-29

The latter, after receiving one or two
good shakings. suddenly opened his
eyes. swore a big oath. and let drive his
fist at his -middy's right eye. The
young fellow made no response. but re-
turned to his post. and thus did duty
for the Prince.
But on the following day ne stated his
case and showed. his eye TO his COM
rades. The midshipmen held a drum
head court martial. found the Prince
guilty, and sentenced him to be spanked
by the lad whose eye ne had blackened.
Accordingly the royal culprit was
seized by four of the seniors and held
face downward on a table while the
midshipman with the disigurcd optic,
his sleeves rolled up to his elbows. car
ried out the sentence of the midship-
mems court until his hands smarted.
When the Prince was released he was
furious with rage. and threatened ven
geance. but in a day OF two he thought
better of it. and went to his messmate
who had spanked him and apologized for
he blow he had given him. The midship-
man accepted his apology and rendered
his own in return for the spanking which
he had administered.
During the remainder of the cruise
the Prince put on no airs. but he was
as agreeable and charming a young fell
low as could be. There can be no doubt
that he was benefited by the spanking.

him safely across the street

How closely Edward followed sports
in different phases has been shown time
and time again, but no single incident
illustrated it better than the letter of
congratulation he wrote to DR.. W. G.
Grace, the crack cricket player. who
was making sensational records in 1895.
This letter, written by Edwards secre-
tary, was as follows:
Dear Sir: The Prince of Wales has
watched with much interest the fine
scores which you continue to make in
the great matches this year He now
learns that you have beaten all records
by scoring 1000 runs during the first
month of the cricket season. as well as
completing more than 100 centuries in
first-class matches.
His royal highness cannot allow an
event of such interest TO all lovers of
our national game to pass unnotieed by
him, and he has desired me to offer you
his congratulations uTon this magnif-
cent performance.
