ONLY A FRIENDLY CALI

Berlin papers take pains TO explain
that the visit OF Prince Henry TO this
country has no other significance than
desire Of the Germans TO cultivate
a friendly sentiment between the two
countries. The prince comes, says the
National zeitung, az the Interpreter OF
Germany's friendship for the uilted
States. He is the first German Prince
from the old reigning house who treads
the soil OF the great Republic, and UNI
doubleday his acqualntanceshlp with
the most prominent men OF the Union
win exercise a beneficial effect upon
national relations
This is, no doubt correct. There was
some foolish talk In the European press
about pending German.American war
because of the intention Of the Ger
man government to collect a debt from
Venezuela. The time IL very opportune

misunderstood Monroe doctrine Is no
menace to the worlds peace, as II does

CHINA REFORMING.

China evidently has profted by her
late experience with the western pow
ers According to recent adylces, the
negotiations for the sale of the Pei
Yang naval squadron to Russia have
been terminated, and the two vlceroys
Of NankIn and Chilli are making pre-
paratlons for the entire reorganization
of the Chinese naval and military
forces. The proposition, II seems. is
to employ American and British naval
officers In the reorganization OF tho
navy, The reform Of the army is to
commence In the province OF Chill,
whore the vceroy expects to mobilize
a foreign drilled army Of 100000 men.
This In the present condition OF the
world, certainly Is the best China can
do II the country desires to retain its
autonomy II must place its defense
on an entirely modern footing. Had
there been 100000 well drilled and skill
fun led troops in each Of the eastern
provinces of the empire. there would
have been no European invasion, There
would probably have been no provoca-
ton either For II the Chinese gov
eminent We're known to be strong
enough to speak with emphasis, there
would be less conflict with foreigners,
and consequently more cordial feel
ing There are eighteen provinces in
China and Il each eyentually could raise
ana maintain 100000 well drilled sol
diers the aggregate would constitute
a force that would raise China TO the
0rst ranks Of military powers
China needs however not only a
large army, but honest management Of
her finances. This, too, should be
placed under foreign inspection. II
this is done, the country win rapidly
recover mem the stunning blows 1t ha2
received Then coalition between
Russis and China may be looked for,
and the two would be capable OF over
running the ola World, Ike the lnnum-
eluble hosts OF Cog ana Magog in

ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS.

Congress is slated to adjourn tomor
row, and may possibly do so this af-
ternoon if all business is.out of the
way, as resolution for that purpose
was prepared yesterday to- be intro
duced today if all was in readiness for
it. The session has been busy
one, and much important legislation
has been enacted. The bills for civil
government in the Philippines, the
isthmian canal, and national irriga-
ton are measures that constitute a
good record for a session ..of congress
at any time, and when taken in con-
n sction with much other legislation of
somewhat less Importance it makes
an especially good record. OF course
there. is much that goes over, some of
which it was hoped would reach
fruition at'this session. The matter
of relief for Cuba was among these,
no arrangement having been reached
that would satisfy the two contending
elements. The position which the
sugar trust occupies in relation to the
matter, as to what extent it might
profit by the concession, was Of course
the principal cause for this failure.
Had it been out of the field entirely
there is little question but that an
agreement could have easily been
reached. The appropriations are est:
mated at from three-quarters of a
billion to a billion dollars, the last
figures being reached by including all
meters which were ordered, like the
isthmian canal, the expenditures OF
which will extend over a number Of
years, and which in all cases were not
provided for by appropriation by this
congress- AS usual the large appro.
priations will come in for more or lesc
criticism, and there are doubtless
features among them that deserve all
that is leveled against them. In caring
for a great country like ours, it does
not take but little here and there to
crawl into large sum in the aggre-
gate that is either unwarranted or
wholly vicious. In this respect the
Minneapolis Journal calls attention to
the fact that the method by which
appropriations are handled in con-
gress, tend to increase appropriations.
While there is committee on appro-
priations it does not handle them all,
as many other committees have a
word to say as to expenditures, and
recommend many items of an IN
reasonable character which never
ought to go through. 1t suggests that
there should be budget committee
which should pass upon all calls for
money in congress, basing them upon
the estimates of the various depart
ments. This would undoubtedly result
in considerable scaling down of ex-
penditures in great many instances

SCHOOL HISTORY
Short Sketches of the Various
Schools of the City.
Interesting Accounts Given---Exercises
Not Largely Attended, Were
Held This Afternoon.

This was educational day scheduled
on the official program for the week.
The exercises were set for 10 o'clock
this forenoon at the opera house, but
at that hour very few had assembled,
and it was concluded best to adjourn
until 2 20 this afternoon. At that
hour, there was somewhat better
attendance than this morning, but yet
there seemed to be lack of interest
in this part of the program that is
hard to account for. This lack of in
terest, President Davis of the school
board, who presided, in his opening
remarks, said was greatly to be re-
GREETED. There was, however, he said
a great deal TO attract the attention of
all. He continued with few appro-
pirate remarks in introducing the sub.
ject for the day, stating that educa
tion was looked upon with the teach
ings of the church as peculiarly fitting
for the opening of this week of cele-
bration. Yesterday the history of the

CREDITABLE EDITION.
Mankato Post Issues a Special Semi
Centennial Number.

The Mankato Post has issued a
special semi-centennial edition, con-
sisting of sixteen pages of interesting
reading matter. illustrated with CUTS
and business announcements. The
paper evidences a great deal of work
on the part of Editor August Marsch-
ner. and reflects credit on the Office
and its proprietor, Geo. W. Traub.
The edition is entirely in German,
and deals largely with the early his
tory of the city and vicinity. Groups
of early settlers and prominent resi-
dents are given, surrounding illustra-
tions bearing on the early days The
average reader has little conception of
the amount of work required to get
up an edition of this character. The
special editions gotten out at this
time, together with the papers read
during the week, will furnish ma
terial for future historians of this city,
county and state.
