Grace George, who comes 10 the Co

peror of Germany as one of the great
est sovereigns who ever reigned.
When the Emperor Frederick died and
William assembled the throne it was
The German army is the most perfect
in the world in point of equipment,
drill and mobilization. Yet the
Kaiser's reign is peaceful and he is
doing his utmost to keep it so.
1t is surmised that Prince Henry has
a private communication from his
brother to the president of this coun-
try, in regard TO the Venezuelan mat
ter. 1t is supposed that the Kaiser
wants to know how President RoOse-
welt interprets the Monroe doctrine,
and how it would apply to this particu-
lar case if Germany should try TO col
lect her Venezuelan debt by force or
show of arms. These matters are
somewhat too delicate for correspond
ence even though it be protected by the
unusual care extended to state dOcu-
ments; the business is almost too deli
cate for conversation between the
brother of the Kaiser and our Presi-
dent, who naturally objects to telling
what he would do in circumstances
which he hopes will not occur.

A Peaceful War-lord

1t pays to be friendly. Nobody I'M
derstands this better than the Kaiser,
who is doing his imperial best to in
duce US to forgive and forget the con-
duct of the German navy and the frank
sentiments expressed by the Germans
in Germany at the beginning of the
Spanish-American war. Just as soon
as Admiral Dewey demonstrated the
superiority of American craftsmanship
and seamanship, after Captain Clarke
arrived on the Oregon from Pacific
waters off Cuba, and the destruction OF
Cervera's fleet, the continental tone
changed. At present the favor of the
United States of America is a con-
tinental prize that all the powers are
striving for. 1t is in no spirit of criti-
cism of the Kaisers sincerity that
Americans receive Prince Henry. His
tory will write down the present En-

elusive indefinable quality that is called
gentility or breeding, inheres in Mrs.

StatesnanShip

The business of a congressman at
Washington is to get federal buildings,
or contracts, or grants of some kind
for the district which sent him there.
IL was one of the reproaches made
against Congressman Bryan that he
did nothing for Lincoln during the four
years that he represented this part of
Nebraska except to put in an elevator
i'm the government building here.
What else could he have done? Mr..
Burkett has induced the distributing
machine at Washington to lay a new
stone sidewalk around the government
building. Quite aside from what a
place needs, il is incumbent upon a
congressman to erect federal buildings
and get federal contracts for the dis
trict he represents. That is how ne
represents it 1t is the chief argu-
ment in favor of Congressman Mercer
that he gets things for Omaha. What
is the lsthmian Canal to him? Or he
to Isthmia? Omaha sent him to
Washington as the citizens might send
a commercial agent anywhere, to make
arrangements to have federal money
spent in Omaha 50 that Omaha citi-
zens may get the benefit of it. Con-
gressmen Burkett and Mercer accept
the limitations of their mission to
Congress and thereby show their dis
elimination. They do not argue with
the situation, with the universal in
depreciation of congressman duties
and function. Meanwhile several
hundred congressman are endeavoring
to have new postoffices built in their
towns and to have their particular
friends and supporters appointed as
postmasters. No wonder the lot of
them bungIed the Isthmian canal bust
ness and refused to temperately con-
slider the relative advantages of the
two sites.

Surplus

1t is the part of the blanket that
hangs over the bed that keeps us
warm" Ii is the amount We know in
excess of that which We express or use
that makes us of any value in our ser
eral positions. When there is a sur
plus in the treasury the people from
whom it has been collected begin to
complain of taxation. When the gold re-
serves decline in the national treas
ury, although the government may
never actually need more than ii has,
the knowledge of the decreasing store
may bring on a panic as it did in the
early nineties when the blanket did not
hang over far enough and the whole
country took a chill. Customers have
the most confidence in the bank that
has the largest reserve and express it
by larger deposits. At the same time
a large surplus i'll the national vaults,
although il maintains a high average
of confidence is q temptation to legis-
lators to increase their efforts to APP
propriate il to selfish and local enter
prises.

Threshed

The Boston Authors club held its an
nual meeting in January of this year.
There were present one hundred and
twenty-five members and guests 50 it
is likely there are at least seven
ty-five authors left in Boston. Colonel
T. w. Higginson is now their prophet.
OF the 1850 group consisting of Long
fellow, Holmes, Emerson, Whittier,
Hawthorne, Margaret Fuller Lowell
and others there is only Mr.. Higgin-
son left, and as one of his admirers
says: "On memorial occasions he says
something simple and right that holds
us all up while We count ten" On this
occasion Colonel HigginsOn said that
the imperturbable records of the British
Museums most-read poets showed that
Tennyson, Longfellow, Whittier and
Lowell preceded Poe in public favor.
Therefore, he argued, that the poets
and authors who have moral purpose
and purity of life get the public favor
and retain it," There is the saving
grace within US; not for arts sake
or beauty's sake, not for anything but
the eternal verities will We give our ia
yor.
There are vicious men and women
who surreptitiously read unworthy
books, but as soon as children are
born to them they begin to pull weeds
with might and main and try to de-
stroy and get out of sight that which
will hurt their children. Every child
born into this weary, callOused world
is the occasion of a new dedication and
a new sacrifice. The children of Israel
did not understand the burning heart
and the new call to righteousness for
the child's sake and the father went
out among his flocks and selected a
young ram without blemish and laid
it upon an altar while his heart burned
within him. We have no such expires
sion, but when a mans new born son
is laid into his arms, the father : heart,
like the old nomad's heart, burns with
in him, his soul kneels, and he offers
instant sacrifice. He may be the most
cold blooded of philosophers and NOR
alists. Never mind, the rush of new,
uplifting emotion makes him a relig-
ious man for the time being till the
world and habit get their clutch on him
again. 1t is these new births that keep
men nearer their Creator, tina rings the
death-knell for all merely artistic writ
ing, born of barren men and women
who have not been converted to right
eousness.
The book in which the common man
binds human beings to human beings
and all to God is of short life. VIII

The Won't Perform Club

some women, cluD-men ana tfamps
are the only members of a leisure class
in America. To this enumeration
might be added the numerous office
holders in small cities, who get down
town in time to go to the club fol
luncheon and back to the club in time
to play a dozen hands of whist before il
is time to go home for an early dinner
Deputies perform the works of these
functiOnaries, and although their sal
aries are usually not large, they are
large enough to keep the Office-hOld-
ers from the degradation of labor.
They cannot be included in the leisure
class, however, because near the eX-
piratiOn of the terms of office to which
they have been elected these politicians
are obliged to exert themselves strenu-
Ously and give an absorbing attention
to the details of popularity in order to
ensure Il reelection. For the short
period before election they earn what
ever they expect to get by real sweat
superinduced by unremitting physical
-,
according to the period of their terms
they work early and late and can not
be considered members of the leisure
class.
Women whose husbands are prosper
Gus, are supposed to have nothing to
do. Church, charitable, or municipal
committees do not hesitate to ask the
mother of a family to do a song and
dance for the amusement of the vic
Tins who have been herded, by the lash
of religion or philanthropy or what not,
into hall at twenty-five cents a head.
1t is no excuse when the woman pleads
pre-occupatiOn or unfitneSs for the
stunt assigned her. Committees who
select victims to make a Roman holi-
day for the ticket-holders of reserved
seats in the auditorium do not care
at all whether or not the performers
know how to sing, dance, make a
speech or tie themselves into the glad
iatOrial knots demanded. 1t has come
to that point in the small town where
woman who is asked must do absurd
turns or be regarded with aversion by
committees from churches and all man.

been started in Lincoln and it has one
member who has vowed to obey from
now till dissolution its constitution and
bylaws. The name of it is The Won't

some remarks upon it at the conclusion
of Mr. Lodges statement in support
of the ajority report.
During the greater part of to-day's
session, the measure providing for the
establishment of department of
commerce was under consideration. An
effort was made by Mr.. Nelson of Min
nesota, in charge of the bill, to secure
a vote upon it, but the opposition to
many of its provisions became so
strong that the effort had to be aban-
doned.
In an extended statement he replied
to the criticisms which had been made
of the bill The departments princi-
pally affected by the measure were
those of the Treasury and the Interior.
The former had on its rolls 4414 en-
ployes in Washington and the latter

of employees than all the other depart

was a strong public sentiment in the
