Enter! the pavement carpeted with leaves, gives
back softened echo to thy tread
Lsten the choir is singing; all the birds in leafy gal

And singing! listen ere the sound be fed
And learn their way to worship without Words
Tenting tonight on the old camp ground means
more to those with the Chautauqua habit than 1t
does to their "stay-athome" neghbors. They have
memories of starry nights and fresh sweet mornings

Report reached the city Monday
that the steamboat recently purchased
by Van Arsdale and associates al
Standpoint to be placed in service on
the upper Snake river would reach
here today from Riparia, says the
Lewiston Tribune. 1t appears that
the boat was shipped from Standpoint
to Riparia and Mr.. Van Arsdale has
employed an experienced steamboat
man to bring the craft here.
Mr.. Van Arsdale is the owner of
the little steamer Wilhelmina, which
he built here several months ago. The
power equipment OF the craft was in
adequate and he has arranged to in
stall larger engines. He plans also
to add a third boat and has organized
a company to handle the fleet of
steamers.
There have been repeated rumors
that Mr.. Van Arsdale is associated
with one of the large railroad COM
panies, but he states he is operating
independently. Report in circulation
Monday was to the effect that his
company is receiving encouragement
from owners Of cement and coal prop

Washington, September 21.-It is re-
ported that there is a proposition to
do away with the consuls general in
the American foreign service to re
lieve the embarrassment of our ambas-
sailors, due to the obligation of recog-
nizing consuls general socially. These
officials are trade representatives and
are therefore outside the social pale"
according to European ideas. Consuls
general have no standing in the cour s
of Europe. Why this should a fife,
tie social standing of consuls general
at the American embassies is aston
ishing to majority of citizens of our
republic.
If we mistake not, there are at pres
ent an American ambassador and con-
sui general representing us in the
same country who at one time belong

ed to the newspaper fraternity. Each
began life at the bottom rung of the
ladder to fame, which they have been
climbing by the usual means of taking
advantage of their opportunities. To be
sure, one has been more fortunate
than the other, because of his good
luck in making an alliance that has
given him a large share in a fortune
that was accumulated by strict atten-
ton to trade. Both are bright men,
whose wits have been sharpened by
their experience while plying their
trades in the newspaper field. Why
should this ambassador not accord to
this consul general?
The standards for social recognition
fixed by the courts of Europe should
not concern us. Heaven knows they
admit many into the royal circles who
would not be received in the social
circles of some of our frontier towns,
to say nothing of the impossibility of
their being received in the larger cities
by educated and refined society. Scions
of royal blood are often so profligate
in their habits that they should be ex-
cluded from all society. even that of
the courts of Europe.
It list be hoped that the State De-
partment will not depart single inch
from the stand it has taken as to the
rank of consuls general in the circu-
lar which names ambassadors, minis
tiers and consuls general as the proper
order Of rank for American represent

American embassy. The anteeedents
of the kings fayorite may have been
nothing. and he may have nothing ex-
cept the kings favor upon which to
base his pretentions and objections to
the presence of the representative OF
trade. While on the other hand. the
American consul general may have ac-
quired national reputation before ac-
cepting the consul generalship and is
in every sense of the word the SUI
perior of the kings favorite.
That any American who has had the
good fortune to be appointed a diplo-
mat to any court of Europe should con-
sent to father a proposition that has
for its object a reflection upon trade
or it's Representatives is a source of
deep regret, and it is to be hoped that
the members of the monetary commit
tee, who have been solicited to present
the matter to the state depart ment
and to congress, with a view to it's
favorable consideration, may decline
to do so. and that universal ridicule
may greet the authors of such an I'M
republic idea.
1t would be we'll. after the next in
auguration to discontinue the services
of diplomats who no longer are true
to the principles of republicanism.
Their discontinuance in the service
would enable them to devote all their
time to sychophantic adulation of roy
