a newspaper controversy would serve

THE FOURTH IN WASHINGTON

Up in Washington they are preparing
for Fourth of July celebrs ton which
will have some unusually interesting
features. The new French ambassador,
who is said to be very brilliant orator
and scholar, will deliver the chief adj
dress. A more fitting selection could
not have been made; representing as he
does the one great republic across the
waters, and the representative of a peo-
pie who did so much for the American
colonies in their struggle against the
powerful armies of Great Britain through
the dark days of the Revolution, it is a
peculiarly happy selection that the dis
tinguished minister of the great French
people is to be the Fourth of July ora
tor in the capital city Of nation his
forefathers helped to establish. An
other feature equally as pleasing will be
the reading of the Declaration of indie
pendence by Admiral George Dewey.
OF all our recent war heroes, the name
of Dewey stands out above all the rest,
untainted, and unhurt by the shafts of
envy and malice. And what could be a
finer spectacle than to see this old fight
er, whose laundering guns at Manila
sent new message to the powers of the
world, standing with uncovered head
and in the presence of his fellow country
men reading that immortal enunciation
of principles which, falling from the in
sp;red pen of Jefferson, wrote new ma
ton into existence and gave to the world
the first starry flag of freedom. Besides
these, Secretary Moody, one of the
strongest men in the Presidents cabi-
net, will also deliver an address. The
Fourth in Washington promises to be
one of unusual interest and attractive
ness.
