ing the power of Prussia, whilst other
royal houses gained power by the help

II may justly be asserted that

and their shortcomings they were far
superior to the occupants of other Eu-
ropean thrones
The court Of the Hohenzolerns was
peculiarly clean and free from venial-.

rascality was not the only conspicuous
traitor the HohenzOllerns, They proved
themselves true to the greatest motto
OF them all-that the King is first SER

ambition OF these soyereigns to work
out the development and welfare of the
nation, independent Of class distinc-

from the humblest upwards No better
example of this fact could be given than
the reply Of the miller TO Frederick the
Great, when that monarch threatened

The Hohenzollerns, at TIE commence
ment OF the last century, were intro
ducing compulsory education amid the
derlsve sneers of rival nations and
abolishing serfdom among the agricul-
tural class by assisting peasant farmers
TO exist by means OF government loans

fury we find them breaking fresh
ground In new industrial directions and
economic measures for the welfare of

AS ever, the present representative Of
the house shows that he understands "a
nation does not consist Of a small mi
norlty Of privileged persons, but In a
sovereign people who deserve the great
est solcitude Of the one who has been
placed In sovereign power over them.
il is the response OF the people TO the
Hohen2ollerns that enables Germany to
face her enemies In arms and inspires
a Won Buelow TO assert her constant
readiness to do so.

The visit Of member OF the Hon---
2ollern family to the United States In
the person of Prince Henry, brother of
the Kaiser Wilhelm, is certainly an
event of social If not of political i'm.
portance.
The HOhenzolerns undoubtedly de-
serve to rank highest Of all the kingly
families OF Europe, their name having
been written more consplcuously on It's
pages for the past thousand years than
that OF any other single family,
Prince Henry is marked contrast In
disposition to his imperlOus brother. He
is an admiral in the German navy and
possesses the medal for distinguished
service, won by unusual bravery and
GOODNESS In action. He commenced his
nautical career al very early age and
has been for twenty years a sailor,
"Unser Heinrich" as he Is called, Is
about forty years old and is much more
Of favorlte in Germany than is the
kaiser 1t has been said that he cannot
leave Kiel, where his present position
in the navy compels him to reside, with
out special consent Of the emperor.
Prince Henry was the fayorite grand
son OF Queen Victoria, whom he de-
lighted to visit, and was also the best
beloved child Of the Emperor Frederick
and his imperial cOnsort. His valor and
hardihood form the theme Of many Oft
told stories among the men Of his COM
mand ana the Prussians who love most
to honor him.
The prince or emperor who would
live up TO the highest Hohenzollern
standard must be both great as war
rlor and great as man.
The greatest of all the Hohen2ollerns
was the grandfather Of Prince Henry,
Emperor William /. As contradiction
to an impression which has become gem
eral II Is remarked by a prominent
historian that the Germany of today
might have been without a Bismarck
but could not have been without En-
peror William.
It was through this great monarch
that the German dream OF unity and
Independence was realized, The once
