HANNA AT HOME.

Senator Hanna is more popular in
! Ohio than he was when he was elected
to the Senate. Then the path he trod
numerous and bitter. There was talk
OF making the charge against him that
he bribed his way into the Senate.
| At the state convention at Cleveland
/ this week there was no sign of oppo-
sition to him. Old enemies came for
ward and made up their quarrels with
him. It was said that the convention
was ready to obey his slightest wish.
Does all this mean that the Ohio Re-
publicans look upon him as the next
presidential candidate of their party?
1t would seem so. And yet President
Roosevelt is not unpopular with his
party in the West. The Ohio conven-
ton said nice things about him and the
Kansas Republicans in their state con-
vention this week gave him a resolu-
ton of approval.
Still, it is we'll understood that Pres
ident Roosevelt is not popular with
the business men of the country-those
dustries. They are afraid of him.
They are never certain what his course
will be on any of the great questions
in which they are vitality interested.
Therefore they are against him, and
their influence will be against him in
the Republican national convention. AS
they furnish the money for the pres
idential campaign their voice will be
listened to by those who will have the
making of the presidential ticket.
Mr.. Hanna suits them. He is bust
ness man himself and a very shrewd
one. He knows about trusts and could
be depended upon not to take steps
against them without first having a
full understanding with trust mag
mates. And he seems to have put him
self in close touch with labor unions.
We do not question his motives in try
tunate man in being able to retain the
confidence of both employers and en-
ployes. In the speech which he de-
livered to the Cleveland convention
Mr.. Hanna spoke as If he were certain
the Senate would pass the Philippine
bill. No doubt he is well informed as
to the standing of senators in respect
to it. But is he not mistaken in as
Stunning that the American people have
made up their minds to retain the
Philippines as a permanent possession?
The result of the congressional elections
will be pretty good indication as to
whether he is or not.

The late Benjamin Constant, whose
death at Paris was reported in our
dispatches a day or two ago. made art
pay well. Only the rich could afford
to have portraits painted by him. His
unvarylng price for a picture was $780,
900, and he would not take "a penny
less or a penny more. 1t is said that
Charles T. Yerkes. the Chicago mill
lionaire, once tried to pay Constant
twice his fee for a portrait that pleased
him especially. The artist told him he
didn't need the money, but that Mr..
Yerkes could give it to charity if he
felt so inclined. He wouldn't permit
anyone to assume the air of patron
towards him.

PROTECT THE TREES.

We have no doubt that the Mayor
will see to it at once that the police
are instructed to enforce the ordinance
which provides that horses shall not be
hitched to shade trees within the city
limits. Chairman Daffin of the Park
and Tree Commission says that the
ordinance is neglected, and that on
several occasisions he has taken it up
on himself to bring the ordinance to
the attention of the owners of horses
who were violating it.
Every citizen who takes pride in the
city is anxious that the trees shall be
protected, and there shall be as many
trees planted every year as the appro-
priation of the commission will permit
The more trees we have, provided they
are properly distributed, the more at
tractive the city will be. AS Chairman
Daffin says, the trees represent money
that has been collected from taxpay-
ers, and their destruction by thought
less people should not be permitted. The
ordinance should be vigorously en-
forced against all persons who injure
the trees or contribute to their injury.
And there is another thing to which
the attention of the police ought to be
directed. 1t is the habit into which 50
large percentage of the people have
fallen of cutting across the cor
ners of the squares, and wearing paths
across the green on Oglethorpe avenue,
thus destroying the grass. Why not
keep on the sidewalks? They are GER
tainly wide enough to meet all de-
mands upon them.

A Meeting of Actors.

During Sir Henry Irving's recent visit
to New York, the distinguished actor
had occasion to visit the Criterion The
alter during an afternoon performance
of "Du Barry" says the New York
Times. Passing the stage door, he no.
ticed a couple of pickaninnies waiting
there for admittance, and his curios-
ity being excited, he accosted them and
inquired what they might be doing
there.

In the event of the nomination of
Senator McLaurin to be a Judge of the
Court of Claims, would Senator Till
man oppose its confirmation? He is
very anxious to get McLaurin out of
South Carolina, but he dislikes his
colleague so heartily that he would
no doubt like to see him entirely re-
moved from public life. Still. as a
judge of the Court of Claims he will
be about as nearly out of sight as he
is likely to be before he is buried.

And now comes a Chicago lawyer
who attempts to rehabilitate the char
acter of Judas Iscariot. He hopes to
get his fee out of the sales of his
toricar novel which he has written,
and in which Judas is the leading per-

his Master has been sadly misunder-
stood and misused. and that he was
really a very admirable fellow. Given
the reasonable hope of a monetary re-
turn. the Chicago lawyer will endeavor
to establish a character for anybody.

The cost of repairs to transport
vessels since the beginning of the
war with Spain amounts to nearly s1O,-
100000. 1t is probable that the whole
fleet of vessels could be duplicated
for a sum not much if any greater.
What proportion of these repairs
were actually necessary, and how
much jobbery there was in the bus
mess, will probably never be known,
but if the repairs had been made for
private corporation they would no
doubt have cost millions less.

HONORS TO THE PRINCE.

The honors shown to Prince Henry
this country and its distinguished WISH
tor. 1t was fitting that the President
Mansion and that the great German
American paper, Staatz Zeitung should
give dinner to the Prince to which all
editors of daily papers-the real nobility
of America-should be invited. The
America is stated by the Vossische lei
tung, of Berlin, which says it was the
ton of the tremendous power and prog
ress of this country that suggested of
through his brother, to show that the
same spirit is still alive in the Hohen-
zollern house and the German people
that the great Frederick showed in re-
cognizing and felicitating the young re-
public"
1t seems that Prince Henry is man
of ability, of character and has i'm
pressed those with whom he has come in
contact that he is a man of such abil-
ity as to command respect in any circle
independent of his rank.
There is, of course lot of turnkey
ism and humbug connected with the re-
ceptions. 1t disgusts sensible people
who wholly approve all proper honors
One Of the things that is nauseating is
the publication that there was no person
in America Of sufficient high rank to
introduce the Prince to the President,
and he had to introduce himself. If that
were not so absurd it would be ridicu-
lous.

THE RIGHT RING.

In a recent speech in the House, Hon.
John d. Bellamy, of Wilmington, took
occasion to argue in favor of passing the
Newlands resolution. In brief the New
lands resolution invites Cuba to apply
for annexation. Mr.. Bellamy pointed out
that Mr.. Jefferson longed to have Cuba a
part OF this Republic, and argued that
it was manifest destiny that it should be
star in our flag. In one item alone he
said annexation would give at once a
market for thirteen million dollars of
cotton goods, and he added:
IF We can then free ourselves by this
means of the Philippine blunder and con-
fine our territorial acquisitions to the
American continent the United States of
America will become the leading factor
in the worlds civilization. Our army,
which, if large, may become, as the
founders said the engine of despotism'
may be kept at a minimum and not be
burden to the people; our navy should
be increased to keep pace with our con-
stantly increasing commerce, and will be
quarters of the globe. IT, then, by gem
erous treatment we can further gain the
good will of Cuba and by the passage
Of the Newlands resolution invite her to
apply for annexation, the Gem of the
Antilles will add much to the wealth of
our nation. She will become a valuable
strategic point, as she is now natural
military post for our government, which,
If not secured may in the not distant flu
ture, be used to the great detriment of
this country in time of war"
Expansion on the American continent
has always been acknowledgements
of territory that gives us in fact the
Monroe neutrality-suspicious. of countries
by peaceful methods But that party has
never in the past--and never will-advo-
cate expansion outside the American
hemisphere. Logical, peaceful expansion
here will ultimately put every foot of
ground from Alaska to Terra del Fuego
under the American flag; but it will be
gradual and peaceful, and no territory
will be added to be treated as colonies,
but as territories or self governing
States

NO BOORISHNESs AND NO FUNK.
EYISM.

There is always a middle ground of
wisdom to pursue in all international
matters. This country ought to stand
as steadfastly against aping royalty as
against boorishness. Latterly the spirit
of initiating European court ways has
grown, particularly since Hay has been
Secretary of State The pendulum once
swung too far in the direction of pulling
the lions TAIL now it has swung so far
in another direction that some fiunkeys
would feel it an honor for the lion to
walk over American customs and tradi-
tions.
The sending of an embassy to the cor
onation of King Edward is indefensible.
We have an Ambassador and suite in
England who are able to properly repre-
sent this country at the display of 1.-The
divine right of kings" farce. 1t is going
too far to spend thousands of dollars to
send special embassy to witness the
act, as if this government loved TO see
the browning of Kings perpetuated 1t
Is enough that we show enough courtesy
to maintain pleasant diplomatic rela-
tions: anything more than that, mis-
represents the spirit of the American
people. The Chicago Tribune states our
position clearly and succinctly when it
says:
"A representative of the American
government at a coronation IS out of
place. He is an incongruity. He is
about as much out of place as a repre-
sentative of q Presbyterian General
Assembly would be at the installation
of an Archbishop of Canterbury or
Pope of Rome.
''The excellent gentlemen who have
been selected to see King Edward
crowned will have to go. 1t would be
discOurteous to revoke their commissions
now But this should be the last az
affair of the kind. The attitude of the
United States concerning future core
nations should be one Of dignified aloof-
ness. 1t should not descend from the
heights of it's republican simplicity to
take part in the childish entertainments
of Europe in which crowns, scepters and
holy oil are of so much Importance
