THE JU KEN'S HIKTHIUY.
The people of the most democratic
government on earth; the people who
have ploughed the seed of democracy
deep into the soil of four continents;
the people who have watched and
guarded the seed as it sprouted, and
its roots ran down to the living waters
of self government; all of these today
celehrate the anniversary of the birth
of the woman in whose name and by
whose authority the decrees of this
powerful democracy go out to all parts
of the earth and seas.
An Englishman lately wrote regard
ing the British political fabric: "It
i3 difficult to see what further exten
sions in the direction of popular gov
ernment any partisan of Ochlocracy
the rule of the multitude could de
vise." Vastly weaker in direct official
power than any European monarch,
or any president of the United States,
the British Queen still remains the
symbol, and emblem of perhaps the
strongest and wisest, and most far
reaching political force in the world,
one that dominates about four hundred
millions of people.
We, allied to the American branch
of this Teutonic race, frankly ac
knowledge this, because it is true, and
we are gradually becoming prouder of
the racial lines which are drawn be
yond the borders of nations or coun
tries only, and embrace the whole
English speaking world. The Ar
kansas men who believes in Arkansas
only, as against the world, and the
Englishmen who believes in England
only as against the world, gradually.
disappear together like Sam Weller's
post boy and donkey.
So today the men and women of
this great democracy charge their
glasses with health to the Queen o
, Democracy. More than this, they wel
may include the lands, and the men
of "the four new nations." and the
"Islands of the Sea," whose allegiance
gives luster to her reign. Here are a
few of Kipling's lines, which read
well today. It is in the toast:
"To the health of our people's people
To her well ploughed windy sea,
To the hush of our dread high-altars
Where the Abbey makes us We;
To the grist of the slow ground ages,
To the gain that is yours and mine
To the Bank of the Open Credit,
To the Power-house of the Line."
"To the smoke of a hundred coasters
To the sheep on a thousand hills,
To the sun that never blisters.
To the rain that never chills,
To the land of the waiting spring-time,
To our, five meal, meat fed men,
fTo the tall deep bosomed women,
And the children nine and ten."
"To the homes of the floods and thun
der,
To her pale dry healing blue
To the lift of the great Cape combers,
And the smell of the baked Karroo
To the growl of the sluicing stamp
head To the reef and the water gold,
To the last and the largest Empire,
To the map that is half unrolled!"
As Great Britain holds the com
mercial destiny of the Far East under
the shotted guns of the most formid
able fleet the world has ever seen, and
cordially invites the Americans to
share in the profits that may be taken
out of it, even those of us Americans
who delight in twisting the Lion's
tail, may drop that feeble pastime for
a moment, stand in line with the loyal
British, charge our glasses, and drink:
"To the Queen. God bless her."
A REMARKABLE SPEECH.
order to place the United States in
their proper and inevitable place
among the Nations. He recognizes the
coming duties imposed upon the States
and declares that they would be re
creant to their duty, if they refused al
liances. His plea is for an Anglo-American
alliance. Scholars have earn
estly made this plea before. But the
Nation has not responded to the call.
The limits of the American empire are
so vast, its resources almost untouch
ed, and its people so satisfied with
their profitable isloation, it was diffi
cult for them to look beyond the seas,
and there was an abiding faith in the
farewell words of the Great Leader.
Mr. wmey does not speak as a
scholar only. He has felt the pulse of
the people. He sees that the hour of
action, not of speculations on the
future, is near at hand. He recognizes
what he calls, "the present crying need
of our commercial interests." These
demand now an abandonment of the
position of the United States as an
"international recluse," and the forma
tion of an alliance with great Britain,
"our best friend," he says, "and most
formidable foe is that world-wide em
pire whose navies rule the seas, .and
which on our northern frontier con
trols a dominion itself imperial in ex
tent and capabilities."
There is no peanut jingoism, no
mouthing at the British lion, nor
pulling of his .tail. He calls for the
patriotism of race, and not of country
alone.
In urging the breaking up of that
spell which lies in the Farewell Ad
dress, he declares for the real exten
sion of American empire, in whatever
way it may best serve to strengthen
and increase American influence. It
includes and rises above the question
of strategic points in the Pacific. It
takes in Hawaii as a mere incident
of the larger movements. The Address
is one of the most important educa
tional titterances that has yet been
produced in America.
There is no better evidence of the
extraordinary evolution of political
and international relations, than the
address of Richard OIney, Secretary of
State under Mr. Cleveland, which he
lately delivered at Harvard College,
titled "International Isolation of the
United States." It is the protest of a
conservative Democrat against the
building of the Chinese wall around
the United States. While Mr. OIney, as
Secretary of State, unfortunately, dis
agreed with many American statesmen
about the facts of the overthrow of the
Monarchy here, he never distinctly op
posed the political union of these Isl
ands with the United States. Nor did
Mr. Cleveland. They stood in the
shadows of coming events.
Mr. OIney declares that the United
States can on longer remain under the
spell of Washington's Farewell Ad
dress. He admits its force in the past.
He defines and limits it to the ordinary
vicissitudes of European politics. He
-would still maintain it with full force
and effect in that regard. But he re
fuses to be bound by it, in the larger
relations which may be necessary in

content ourselves for the moment with
pointing out the urgency of the prob
lem. How a 'benevolent neutrality' can
solve it. so as not to do injustice and
yet not to do incidental injury to the
United States is a question to which
we will return when more materials
are available, and when the strategy
of the two fleets, on which the answer
really depends, can be more easily
foreseen."
As we are also observing a "bene
volent neutrality," towards the United
States, we can only suggest to Great
Britain that if she feels lonely, and
shivers with the cold of natural isola
tion, call on us, walk in, and warm
her toes at our little tropical fire.

SCROFULA
It is Foul Blood's" Advertisement
i
But It Is Soon Cured by Hood's
Sarsaparilla.
Yes, Scrofula, if anything, may be called
the advertisement of foul blood. It is the
ecourge of the worlr" offensive, painful,
debilitating, stubborn and well nigh
unendurable.
Outward applications do not cure, they
only drive the difficulty to new quarters.
Emollients may palliate, they cannot
abolish the evil. There i3 but one sure
way out, and that is to eliminate the
taint from the blood.
There is one remedy that can effect this,
and it is the only one that, bo far as we
know, has almost invariably succeeded
even where the system has been poisoned
by long years of taint, and the ravages to
be repaired are tremendous. That remedy
is Hood's Sarsaparilla. Read this:
"My daughter was afflicted with Im
pure blood. There were running sores
all over her body and they caused her
much suffering. We tried medicines that
were recommended as blood purifiers,
but could not see that they did any good.
A friend told me about Hood's Sarsapa
rilla and I began giving the girl this med
icine. The result was that she was per
fectly cured after taking a few bottles.
She has had no symptoms of scrofula
sores since that time." Marietta M.
Smith, South Middleboro, Mass.
