THE AMERICAN supeEr.

The American Is a contradiction to
his forbears in Europe One Of the
most striking examples Of this is the
contrast between the manner in which
England and the United States make
their Budget" or the appropriation
for the annual expenses Of the nation
al government.
In England, Parliament calls upon
the administrative officials for their
estimate Of the money they will need
for the coming year. This includes
funds for the maintenance of the
army and navy, interest, improve
ments, all extraordinary expenses, and
the administrative expenses Of the
government Parliament then revises
the itemized report and passes bill
that win levy sufficient taxes to meet
the funds appropriated. 1t is seldom
that the administration secures all
that it asks for, and never does Parlia-
ment increase the amount requested.
A totally different method obtains
in our national government. The Com
mittee on Ways and Means first learns
how much money 1t can raise by the
different resources at It's disposal.
Then Congress sets about for way
to spend this money. It is decided to
spend so much on the army and navy.
SO much on internal improvements
here is much log-rolling done-and ap-
preparations have to be made for the
interest on the national debt, for the
postefnce and for the ADMINISTRATION
OF the government. II there is any

GEORGE WASHINGTON.

On account of inexperience, few OF
us appreciate the disadvantage Of be-
ing a national hero for more than a
hundred years. We almost forget that
through the kind ofices of his admir-
ers, King Arthur has become a myth
instead of a man, and that we Ameri.
cans have sacrificed a Southern gen.
tleman that we might have a father
for the country.
For a long time many historians
seem to have had for their motto:
Make George Washington as much
like his monument as possible" With
this in view perhaps-although many
will contend that it was merely in be-
half Of truth, they have sought to dis.
prove the hatchet story. and have
gone far enough to say that there is
no proof of his ever breaking the
young colt. One modern biographer
has been SO bold as to announce that
Washington was not at all popular
with the ladies"-but only a few seem
interested in preserving the person
ality of the national hero.
As q matter of course Washington
was human. And it was because he
was human that he had such success.
No high-browed imitation of a marble
statue could have held together the
army at Valley Forge. The task called
for a man.
To tear away the mists that shroud
. the real Washington and to show him
as he was. is not to put him in a
lower position In the feelings Of his
countrymen. His achievements seem
more stupendous when one realizes
that they were the work of a man
who frequently suffered injustice, and
felt it keenly, but never lost faith in
his cause nor permitted his men to
lose faith in him.
Anyone who reads Franklin's auto
biography is surprised to find how
very human this great American was.
Perhaps if Washington had written
story Of his life we should be simil
arly surprised. We would have more
definite proof that he was q man and
not marble statue. Such proof would
be valuable as we are prone to forget
that it was not because our national
heroes were superhuman, but because
they possessed the human character.
istics in an intensified degree. that
they were able to understand other
men and help them. -.

PATRICK JOHN RYAN.

Death has claimed the venerable
Archbishop of Philadelphia. Patrick
John Ryan. Thus has ended life Of
service to Catholicism and the cause
Of Christianity.
Born in Tipperary county, Ireland,
February 20, 1881, Archbishop Ryan
attended Catholic parish schools and
was graduated from Carlow College in
1852. The following year he was made
| q sub-deacon. For time after com
ling to America he taught English lit.
erature in Carondelet Theological
Seminary. He was later made bishop
of st. Louis and in 1883 was made an
archbishop. In 1884 he was trans
ferred to the Philadelphia see and re-
NAMED there until his death.
No greater Catholic clergyman has
been known in modern America. One
of the leading authorities of his own
church, the archbishop was revered
by all Protestants. He was an author
ity on English literature and had de-
grees from several American univer-
stiles. His high motives were never
questioned, and all feel that his death
is a great loss to all Christianity.

the substitution Of clay for the more
substantial wood or rag fibers, leading
to the grave fear that many of the
printed records of the government
would cruublc and become unreadable
in less than Il century.
The Joint committee has endcavorcd
for more than a year TO bring about a
reform and Standardization of paper
purchase for the government and
amounting 10 more than Sl,QOO,OOu

authorized to advertise for bids on 25,-
600, 900 pounds OF paper for the year
beginning March ] next,
In the new specifications, the use OF
clay and mineral filler is closely re
strictcd. The committee was told that
the use Of clay in excess of printing
requirements was held by paper ex
perts to he Il deliberate adultcration.
The Joint committee also has cut
from the government stock many grades
Of tinted and other costly papers and
reduced the weights of the grades
