THE STRENUOUS EMPEROR.

1t is said that the feature of the ST
Louis exposition that most impresses
the observing visitor is the great ex~
hib1t made by the Germans. 1t Is .sirn-
ply colossal already and eli r. the
space is not yet occupied. And il is
worthy Of note that the exhibits are
by no means confined to the German
building. They are conspicuous every
where; in the liberal arts, the manu-
features, varied industries and educa-
tional buildings one is confronted on
every hand by evidences of the desire
Of the German government to demon
strate to the Americans the capacity
of the Fatherland to compete with all
the world. Private exhibitors are ali
inspired by the same desire to label
everything as national rather than per-
sonal and the German arms and the
kaiser's picture dominate everything,
The legend Made in Germany is as
conspicuous as it would be in the lit
ter about an African mining camp.
The master mind behind this great
national demonstration is unquestion-
ably that emperor whom we have come
to regard in the light of a war lord
with many poses rather than as ruler
representing modern Germany He
has apparently exerted his immense
influence to show to the nations of the
world that his empire is equal to the
task of competing with the United
States in all the productions Of civil
ization and he is going to do that same
in the very heart of the "eneinys
country" He has rightly conceived
the situation. He knows that the
United States is the one competitor
for the business of the world that Ger
many has to fear. His people have
felt it for years. 1t has been made man
ifest very frequently in the govern
mental policy of Germany. It is now
being demonstrated in a competitive
exposition in which national prejudice
has no part.
The kaiser's strenuous life has it's
good points. He possess and he rushes
in where the angels of Germany fear
to tread. But his strenuesity is not
all for political effect and he has ac-
complished great work in assembling
the German exhibit at the worlds fair.

little consolation from the investiga-
tons of these amateur scientists.
Neither explanation nor apology has
reeonciled us to the clang of the cleo
trio car bell Most of us continue to
regard it as a discordant announce
ment that it is we'll to get out of the
way. We rejoice when the quarrel
some team driver is punished by the
magistrate for stirring the echoes by
noisy reviling of his fellow. But of
all the voices of the street there is none
that so arouses in the human breast
a desire to commit crimes of violence
as that produced by the chauffeur in his
progress up and down and about the
streets.
Having put his machine on rubber
tires so completely noiseless that the
approach of the terror is unnoticed
until its wheels make dents in the
vitals of the needless, the auto driver
went forth to get even, apparently, and
discovered the instrument of torture
with which he squawks the announce
ment Of his passage He works the
device with a view to getting the best
results, from his f1endish point Of
view Just when the nervous person
who has neither the means nor in
clination to indulge in an auto gets
in the middle of an asphalt crossing
there flashes past him dull red me-
teor. His eyes are assaulted by the
vision, at the same time his nostrils
are offended by a villafnous odor of
noisome gases and his ears suffer the
infiiction of a sound which takes on
the significance of a naughty and
discordant command to walk" He
is moved to profanity and, by the same
prompting, to rebel at the conditions
which compel him to observe the AFRO
giant and raucous command.
We cannot, it appears, escape from
the necessity that is imposed upon the
wayfaring man to plod on breathing in
the vile odors with which the red devil
v1tiates the atmosphere. But we ought
to do something to deliver ourselves
from the trumpeting which is a part
OF the f1endish joy of the chauffeur.

A DANDY PLATFORM.

Republican platform as carried by the
Associated Press report are complete,
the Democrats may congratulate them
selves. They have but to adopt a
declaration of principles short, sharp
and decisive covering the main issues
of the day, and say something intelli-
gible and positive about each of them
in order to win. We have said that
the Republican party had ceased to be
party of action, ceased to have any
belief that it could put into words,
ceased to stand for any definite future
platform except 'stand pat'' and '1et
well enough alone" Its suggested
platform more than confirms our opin-
ion.
According to the conference recently
held at the White house, the gist of
Republican opinion is about as fol-
lows: On the tariff the party will, as
those who own it require, continue to
stand pat The public, indeed, has Of
fered to it the remarkable consolation
that the tariff plank ''will not bind the
party not to revise the tariff" Believ-
ers in tariff reform who have sought
some concession, however mild, from
the party, will be interested in this.
They are not even to have the usual
vague assertion that the tariff must
10 hondIo6 fc;o H.
will do something or other "in their
own time and way" but they are to
be comforted now by the promise that
the party will refrain from pledging
itself against revision. They are to be
told that If they do not get blow in
| the face they may consider it the high
est form Of compliment.
The remainder Of the proposed plat
form is worthy of it's beginning. The
trust plank will be straddle as usual;
claiming everything for the Republic
an party, declaring that all vicious
monopolies and combinations will be
forthwith destroyed and that legitimate
business will not be interfered with.
We are familiar with this good old
song, which the Republican conven-
| ton viii MARBLE again in the good old
| way. Reciprocity wiH~~probably be
dropped altogether. The Republican
| majority in congress has so utterly re-
pudiated in practice the doctrine that
was dearest to the heart of Blaine
and whose praise was last on the lips
Of Mckinley that even it is hardly
brazen enough to put reciprocity into
its platform. There will be no prom
Use for or against currency reform, and
the platform will wind up with the
usual denunciation of the Southern
states.
If this is an a1Iuring plan for the
Republican managers, surely we can
have no cause to quarrel with it. The
platform outlined is exactly like the
party that is to stand upon it-without
form, without purpose, without SIN
certify. Let the Democratic party speak
boldly and fearlessly, and above all
definitely, to the country on these is
sues. Let 1t tell them just what it
proposes to do, and nominate men who
shall combine a reputation for fear
1essness in action with that Of a safely
American conservatism in thought, and
1t will win. Neither platform nor can-
didate will present any terrors to
Democracy this year if it shall be wise.
