pV%T The Chinese vioeroy is probably the
greatest livingd statesman. If Gladston,e or Bismarc ha been born in his place
surrounded by the same conditions, load
ed down by the weight of the prejudices
and superstitions of 7,000 years, instead
of having been born Caucasians in the
most enlightened countries of western
civilization, it is doubtful if either of
them could have made so good a show
ing as the wise and powerful old China
man ha3 done. Now, at the age of 74
years, but as robust and commanding
in mind and body as any man of 50, Li
Knn Chang, the great Asiatic who
loved Grant, puts' aside the cares of
state by permission of his imperial mas
ter and makes the grand' tour of the
world.
It is not for his own pleasure he does
this. He could match John D. Eocke-
feller million for million in the matter
of wealth, and after John's 179 Stand
ard Oil millions had run out old Chang
would still have an ample supply. He
has many palaces, and all that can make
life worth living, even to an assortment
of wives, and he has more fame than the
emperor himself.
Bu* ho and his master remember the
drubbing the Japanese gave them. They
rightly attribute it to Japanese knowl
edge of western ways and warfare, west
ern weapons, western ironclads, western
marching and railways and supplies.
They want to see what it is that makes
the west greater than Asia. So the em
peror sends Li on his travels around the
world. The result will undoubtedly be
a grea* boom of modern improvements
in the kingdom of the yellow fellows.
This boom the United States must have
the benefit of. It must have its share of
supplying China with all that she needs
to bring her abreast of modern nations.
It is right, therefore, that we welcome
Li royally and show him what wonder
ful machinery and inventions we have,
how rich and resourceful we are.
There is no doubt but in course of
time China will come abreast of modern
notions. Her defeat by Japan may have
been the best thing that could have be
fallen her.
It is a pleasure, as each Sept. 4 rolls
around, to extend our congratulations
to our sister of France on being able to
steadily maintain a republic in the
midst of the most adverse conditions
government of the people ever encoun
tered. On the one hand the Bonapart
iets, on the other the Bourbons, are ready
at any moment to pounce upon the
slightest weak spot in her republican
armor and wound her to the death. Her
own people are excitable, suspicious and
changeable, admirable as they are in
many respects. In front of her and
around her the rulers of empires and
kingdoms turn cold eyes upon her and
watch her experiment of a democracy
with only half veiled hostility. (Until
Pope Leo XIII issued his command from
the Vatican that such a scandal should
no longer be the very church and priests
of the people were all against her and
openly in favor of Bonapartism or Bour
bonism. Yet through it all the republic
of France has lived 26 years this 4th of
September and gives fair promise of liv
ing on many generations more. May it
be so, and may the citiz3ns of both
France and the United States become
year by year more wise, kindly and truly
republican, more closely knit together
in the great brotherhood of nations!
Li Hungtlbang, one of the four great
men whom General Grant discovered
when he went around the world, may
turn out to be the greatest of them all.
The others were Beaconsfield, Bismarck
and Gambetta. The estimate of Beacons
field by the generation that followed
him is that he was not a great man of
the first rank after all. Gambetta died
too soon. Bismarck clouded his great
ness by a horribly bad temper which
wrought his downfall at last. Only Li
Hung Chang, the powerful, wily, even
tempered, deeply thinking Chinaman, is
left, not a whit abated in honors, influ
ence or intellectual force, though he is
74 years old.
The celebration of the battle of Sedan
by the Germans and of the proclamation
of the, third republic by the French
come so near together that the old bit
terness is annually apt- to be warmed
over again in tie French mind. Sept 1,
1870, the battle of Sedan was fought.
Sept. 2 Napoleon HI surrendered, with
90,000 men, to the Prussians. Sept. 4
the enraged and desperate Parisians pro
claimed the republic. Then followed
the awful scenes of the commune. The
Germans, as time goes on, celebrate
more enthusiastically the anniversary
of Sedan, which will not tend to soothe
the French feeling toward them.
The porte will grant the Cretans a
Christian governor and financial auton
omy with a string. The string is that
the Cretans shall pay an annual tribute
to the sultan and that the powers shall
guarantee the payment of the money.
While this is better than having brutal
Turkish tax collectors rob and maltreat
the Cretans and extort by violence double
the sums they were entitled to, still it-is
not financial autonomy by any means.
tj?\ Some of the New York papers that
have taken every occasion to jeer at the
west and snub all the country outside of
their own provincial town are now
pained almost to the point of tears be
cause certain parties are striving to stir
The Lovejoy Monument.
It was Wendell Phillips who said that
if a young man wanted to win fame
and honor be had only to espouse an nn
popular cause and stick to it till it won.
This was never truer than* in the case
of Elijah P. Lovejoy, whose monument,
srowned with a winged victory, will
soon look down upon the people of Al
ton, Ills. The stataappropriated $25,000
for the statue and the city of Alton
$5,000, and with this the great granite
shaft will be ouilt.
But the fame in the case of Lovejoy
was bought at the cost of a martyr's
death, and he did not live till his cause
Won. But it did win, and he won re
nown.
The state of society when this Chris
tian minister was shot to death in the
doorway of his own printing office for
asserting the right of free speech can
hardly be imagined in our time, though,
to be sure, we have not free speech yet
or anything like it. If the men and
women of today spoke freely out their
convictions on the most vital questions
of government and society, half of them
would be mobbed. Not a few might
even suffer the martyrdom' of Elijah
Lovejoy.
Lovejoy claimed the right to speak
and write against slavery. For this the
office of his newspaper, The Observer,
was looted three times and his press de
stroyed in St. Louis. Then he moved to*
Alton and to his death, in 1837. Upon
one side of the great shaft which will
commemorate his name is this sentence
from his writings:
"As long as I am an American citi
zen, and as'long as American blood runs
in these veins, I shall hold myself at
liberty to speak, to write, to publish
whatever I please on any subject, being
amenable to the laws of my country for
the same."
The Special Car Fashion.
When"the other day young Miss Van
derbilt was married to Mr. Henry
Payne Whitney and the youthful couple
went away for their wedding journey,
they had a train of cars offered for their
service. Their attendants and servants,
their food and drink, their luggage,
taken in connection with the privacy
desirable for so distinguished a pair, re
quired nothing less than a whole train.
It is true the papas of the bride and
groom were railway magnates, and so
the train cost nothing extra.
We wish merely to call attention to a
new and peculiarly American fashion.
It is that of having' one's own special
railway train or car, the same as one's
own carriage or yacht.
In Europe no person except a reigning
sovereign, a member of a reigning fam
ily or an envoy extraordinary who rep
xesents a ruler would have a special car.
Queen Victoria, the czar of' Russia and
Emperor William have usually a train
for their use. It would be in bad taste
for even a member of the nobility to
travel in such state, and it would make
a wide sensation if a duke or marquis
should attempt it, no matter how rich
he were. But here in this land of liberty
and equality the native aristocrat is
more exclusive than the titled folk of
Europe dare to be.
It was not so very large a fleet that
assembled to do honor to Li Hung
Chang on His arrival in New York har
bor, but it was exceedingly good what
there was of it. There were 13 vessels
in all, splendid specimens of modern
naval architecture, every one. There
were 4 battleships, 2 huge ones of the
first class, the Massachusetts and Indi
ana, 10,288 tons each 2 second class
battleships, Maine and Texas, of over
6,000 tons each 2 monitors, the Am
phitrite and Terror the cruisers Mont
gomery, Newark, Cincinnati and Ra
leigh the big armored cruiser New York,
spry little ram Katahdin and th
Dolphin, the dispatch boat that went to
Europe with our white squadron six
years ago. These made a beautiful show
ing and must have convinced Li Hung
Chang that America is up to date with
her navy, what there is of it. And if Li
wants any naval vessels on our approved
pattern constructed for China, we can
assure him our able shipbuilders are
ready to serve him on the shortest notice.
England would have done well to
look after her Armenians at home while
casting tons of ineffectual sympathy on
the Armenians abroad. The condition
of the released Irish political prisoners
who have been in confinement 13 years
shows that they were treated with a
cruelty and severity one would only ex
pect from a Weyler in Cuba. If the sto
ries so freely told of the frightful phys
ical condition of John Daly and the idi
otic mental condition of Whitehead, the
American citizen, are trueand they
have not been contradictedthen Eng
land has been guilty of a horrible out
rage, and one which will stain her his
tory,so long as she is a nation. Ireland
has indeed been a much~wronged coun
try, .ip-
Few people stop to think that their
individual happiness is not at all de
pendent on outside circumstances. A
habit of happiness can be cultivated, like
any other habit, just as successfully.
Happiness is as much a duty as cleanli
ness and morality. The cheerful, hope
ful temper which refuses to let itself be

Against Vivisection.
'If yon keep on, some of these days
you fellows will cease to be satisfied
With torturing animals and will want
to be making your devilish experiments
on human beings," said an .eminent
surgeon to a body of enthusiastic vivi
sectionists years ago.
The prediction has been verified. In
1894 Dr. J. L. Pyle prepared and caused
to be introduced into the Ohio legisla
ture a bill to turn over condemned
criminals to the vivisectionists and let
them be experimented on "under an-
Besthetics.'' An idea more fraught with
fiendishness and weird diabolism never
entered human brain. Are the rites said
to be practiced by the devil worshipers
of Paris any more hideous than the
propositions to let a lot of calloused
young surgeons, some of them not too
particular in their conscience or morals,
try any cruelty their imaginations sug
gest on victims as helpless as the model
of Parrhasius? i
It is beyond doubt that familiarity
with animal suffering and torture hard-,
ens the human heart and chills human
sensibilities. There was reason in the
old law which forbade a butcher to
serve on a jury in which a human life
was at stake. It is a notorious fact that
during the war many a leg and arm
were sacrificed to the sheer blood
thirstiness of army surgeons. Humane
and intelligent persons, surgeons in
cluded, all sincerely hope that the bill
now before congress to prohibit vivisec
tion in the District of Columbia will
become law. The states of the Union
will then pass similar laws.
With the possibilities of seeing
through and through living bodies
which the Roentgen rays now offer,
vivisection becomes simply bloodthirsty
cruelty.
England's Debt and Revenues.
The Review of Reviews gives an ex
plicit summary of the available assets
of the English government which is in
teresting. It will be handy to com
pare with our own. It is particularly
to be noted that England makes a profit
out of her postoffice system, something
the United States has never yet suc
ceeded in doing.
The Review's summary says:^
Last year the administration had a realized
surplus of 4,210,000. This year, with an es
timated revenue of 101,074,000, they expect a
surplus of 1,708,000. Some slight modifica
tions in the death duties will dispose of 200,-
000 100,000 will go in a trivial reduption of
the land tax: increased grants to voluntary
schools will swallow upif the education bill
passes125,000, leaving a balance of 975,000,
which is to be devoted to the relief of the land
lords' rates. England's fiscal system remains
exactly as it was. She raises 20,756,000 by
customs, 26,S00,000 by excise, 16,100,000 by
income tax and makes a profit of 3,743,000 out
of the postoffice. The national debt now stands
at 652,000,000190,000,000 lower than it was
39 years ago. England's national revenue and
yearly budget is of about the same volume as
that of the United States.
The flying machine problem has cer
tainly been solved to the extent of mak
ing a motor which will rise in the air
and move forward. To steer and man
age it and to construct it on a scale
which will make it useful to man is
now the task that remains to be done.
To Professor S. P. Langley, the Ameri
can, belongs the honor of achieving the
triumph. He has demonstrated over and
again that a machine a thousand times
as heavy as air can rise in the air to any
desired height without the aid of gas or
any kind of balloon and travel at great
speed. It is interesting to know that
Professor Langley got the idea of his
machine from watching the soaring of
the turkey buzzard.
The worst nuisance of New Je^J&y is
the mosquito of the Hackensack flats.'
The worst nuisance of New'York city is
the ashes deposited by the ton in the
Atlantic ocean near the bay and harbor.
Some genius has at lengthy evolved the
happy thought of killing out the mos
quito by means of the ashes. A contract
has been made whereby the tons of su
perfluous ashes will be deposited upon
the Hackensack'meadows'year after
year. In time the meadows will be filled
up so that the tides will no longer inun
date them. The land will be trans
formed into valuable building sites and
the millions of mosquitoes that now
brood and increase in the swamps will
become extinct.
If the spirit of Benjamin Franklin,
that live American newspaper man, can
still look down upon things earthly, it
must be a gratification to him to know
the talent for journalism still runs in
the Franklin family and that his great
great-grandson, Rene-Bache,who recent
ly unveiled the bronze statue of the old
philosopher in Chicago, is a newspaper
man, and one who is a credit even to
such an ancestor as Ben Erankl_.'~%4
If, as is expected, it will be possible
to bring together 100,000 Confederate
veterans at the reunion in Richmond
July 1 and 2, i will probably be the
last time so many will assemble at one
meeting. Both Confederate and Union
veterans are dying rapidly and the rate
increases year by year. Grand Army
records indicate that in the state of
Ohio alone 1,700 soldiers of the late war
died in 1895. ^gfejjggjg
