sENAroR EoRAkER,s EuLoeY OF HANNA.

It is the general impression of people outside of the
Buckeye State that there has existed little envy
Jealousy the part Of Senator Foraker against Sen
ator Hanna But from the wonderful euogy
pronounced by Oho senior upon the junior SEN
ator there would be only harmony appreca
ton Among other things Foraker said when Mr. Hanna
went into the senate just after the memorable cam
pagn of 1896. during which he captain of the
Republican army, he was the target of abuse by the
Democratic press and q good many Republican news
papers The newspapers then Senator Foraker asserted
seemed to take delight in saying unkind things about
him, carooning him. abusing him. lying about him"
He then told how Senator Hanna. after entering the
highest legislative body in the country had by the very
force OF his ability and energy turned into ad
miring friends and had put himself the front rank Of
the membership Of the senate man there doing more
than he to fashion the policies of his party or determine
the laws Of the nation. And every step on the way
said Senator Foraker. was credit to him
credit to his party credit to his state credit to his
country"
The best thing about this euogy and what makes it
different from the usual convention oratory is the fact
that It Is all true Senator Hanna today possesses the
admiration confidence and respect the people through
out the country In other place has he been so per
sistenty malgned and msrepresented as in his home
city.

more rapidly than London in q double

there. as in Paris, are on the fiat system.
The architecture Of all these colossal
house blocks is perhaps a little too ford
and ornate for English taste. and with
its high rents rather suggests a tendency
of the Berliners to live beyond their
means. The whole life of the city. in
fact. conveys an impression Of keeping
up appearances in conformity with the
maxim ''vorne fix hinten nix. e, all
show in front and nothing behind. The
Frenchman was not far wrong who pro-
nounced the capital of the new German

hand it shows a tendency TO luxury and
indulgence little in keeping with the tradi

which has made Germany what II now is.
