If Mr Brynu was not so avorso to
history ho would liud that tho United
States as a republic has not as much to
fear of imperialism us imperialistic ua
tions have from republicanism Ever
ainco the United States was first organ

Mr Bryau calls himself somo pretty
hard names It was partly through
his ollorts that tho Paris treaty of peace
was ratified in which it was agreed to
give Spain SiOOOOOOO for tho Philip
pines In Indianapolis yesterday ho
devoted 6000 words to coudomiug his
action and yet in one of his speeches on
his way to Indianapolis Mr Bryau said
I am a cautious man People who
are supporting him should forgot his
tory nud past events as readily as ho
for Bryaus sake
There are somo things that do mako
us feel rather imperial for a faot
When old Europeau monarchies como to
us for money on their bonds it shows
that the time is not far distant whou all
nations will bo bowing boforo the
United States us tho greatest nation in
tho world A republic that can make
the other imperial nations knuckle
under is not a realization to be de
spised 23000000 of Englands war
bonds fouud purchasers in this oouutry
last week and the old countries aro rap
idly learning that tho republio of tho
United States is not to bo iguorod as a
business proposition
If tho populists can now discover that
they have any interests in tho fusion
national campaign they should be re
warded with a silver medal for being
able to comprehend something that is
buried out of sight Mr Towno who
was after a bitter fight made thoir
candidate for vice president at Sioux
Falls has very gracefully decliuod to
run while Mr Bryau hangs to tho
nomination ho received by that party
like a drowning man to a straw Not
only has Mr Towno withdrawn from
the race for Bryaus sake but the
free silver issue was completely buried
by that gentleman in his spooch of ac

American Laurels Won In lurls
One of the notable features of tho
1nrls exposition Is tho recognized merit
of tho American art exhibit which Is
pronounced to be superior to that of
every other country save only France
herself The Paris correspondents an
nounce that seven American artists
have already received first medals
which Is more than have been awarded
to any other nation excepting France
No higher tribute to American
art than this could be paid If tho
British assert that It Is due to the In
clusion of Abbey Sargent Whistler
and others in the American section
when England Is the land of their
adoption yet these artists are truly
American and owe their urtlBtlc Ideals
largely to their eurly training In the
United States Abbey almost wholly so
and even Whistler In no small degree
Honors In art won nt tho Paris exposi
tion will be especially gratifying Tho
Loudon exhibition and the first Paris
exposition proved the superiority of
the United States In agriculture tho
Centennial ami tho Purls exposition of
1878 Its superiority In Inveutlon Tho
last Purls exposition and tho Worlds
Columbian exposition proved that
America excels In manufactures When
our superiority had been proved in all
material things they said abroad that
In art and culture we lacked that
which could not be attained by a new
civilization It will Indeed be a tri
umph if this exposition shall show
American superiority In art as In in
dustry There would seem to be no
more worlds to conquer
Tho Massachusetts probation law is
interestingly discussed In a recent num
ber of The Independent by Herbert D
Wnrd stato commissioner of prlsous
This law which has passed beyond
tho experimental stage in Massachu
setts nud Is attracting tho attention of
penologists iu other states authorizes
the judges of tho several courts to ap
point probation olllcers After n Judgb
has sentenced a person for sotno of
fense like drunkenness truancy or dis
orderly conduct petty larceny for tho
first time or any petty violation of law
he may suspeud sentence and put tho
offender under tho care of a probation
officer At the end of the period of
probation which averages five weeks
the probation otllcer may appear be
fore the Judge and recommend a dis
charge of the probationer An adverse
leport however will lead to his rear
rest nud the Imposition of the original
sentence Iu estimating tho value of
this law In Massachusetts It must be
remembered that this Is one of the few
states In which drunkenness is a pun
ishable offense Public opinion de
mands n liberal enforcement of the
law a lid this accouuts for the large
number of arrests for Intoxication as
compared with other states In 1S9S
there were In the whole stato G7M
arrests for drunkeunets of which 53
131 were referred to the probation otll
cers for Investigation Of this number
about 50 per cent were released 25
per cent were lined 10 per cent were
imprisoned and liS22 were put on pro
bation Tho total number of petty
criminals put on probation In the state
was 5111 According to Mr Wards
statement the probative law lessens
crime and conduces to the peace nud
good order of tho commonwealth He
declares In fact that It will mean tho
closing of one half tho prisons In any

Wlliiiin nnil One of llic Ablct Sen
Cnptnlim Out of Thnt Port
Old Boston schoolboys of a couplo of
generations ago realize that no greater
change has taken place In Boston than
on the wharfs which In 1810 wero nil
open with no sheds built on thotn ns
at the present time Vessels In tho
East India trade were docked nt India
wharf W V Weld Co had their
ships docked at Central wharf Lom
bards and Ileinenway Coa Hhlps
wero nt Commercial whnrf Long
wharf was lined with vessels In tho
coasting trade They had 4argo canvas
signs attached to the yards Htntlug the
port hailed from and tho port tlioy
wanted freight for
At that time there were no Btonm
Hhlps and all transportation was done
by milling craft For Instance a sign
would read The schooner Eagle Cap
tain Smith will sail on Saturday for
Bath Sardlner and HallowoU The
wharfs wero a favorite resort with
the boys Wednesday and Saturday
afternoons At that time school kept
Wednesday and Saturday mornings
and we had the afternoons for vaca
tion In the morning nfter school we
would decide where wo would spend
tho afternoon and It was generally
on tho wharfs Five out of ten boys
went to sea after leaving school
At the bend of Long wharf whoro
the State street block now stands was
nn old hulk of a vessel with a house
built on Its deck It was fastened to
the dock and this was used by tho
Illnghnm Bucket company for a store
house On the side of the house was
a sign Illnghntn Station Packet It
was a standing Joke with ns to ask the
man who had charge of It If ho was
the captain and when ho was going to
sail as we wanted to ship before the
mast
It was a favorite amusement with
the boys to climb up the rigging of
ships and stump one another as to
who would climb the highest There
was one of these boys who could beat
us all n climbing We nicknamed
him Monkey Jack On one of the
ships the duwnhntil of the signal hal
yards broke short up to the flag at tho
truck The captain pointing to the
Hag said I will give any boy that
will bring that flag on deck a nine
pence We all started up the shrouds
but Monkey Jack was up to tho roy
als before wo got to the yardartu
When ho left school he went to sea
and became master of one of tho lar
gest clipper ships that sailed out of
Boston
Captain Mahan of Long wharf had a
fine schooner yacht In which ho took
parties down the harbor He often In
vited the boys to take a sail with him
I remember once he told us a story
about Daniel Webster as follows
About C oclock In tho morning I was
on deck putting the boat in shipshape
order and swabbing up the deck I
was going to take a party down sailing
that day It was raining quite hard
There was an old fellow standing n
the whnrf with an old cloak and slouch
ed hat on under a large cotton um
brella no balled me asked If I was
the captain and said he would like to
come aboard I supposed he was some
old farmer from the country who had
never seen salt water before so I said
Certainly Come right aboard He
looked over the boat a spell and after
awhile came up to where I was and
said Captain If you were sailing n
Bhlp down the bnrbor and another ship
was coming up and tho wind was
northeast which side would you sail
of the ship that you wero going to
meet I said I would put the helm
hard to port and go to tho windward
He seemed to understand and asked
mo a great many questions I thought
he was tnklug up a good deal of my
time and answered him rather short
Ho thanked me for the Information I
had given him and bade mo goodby
I had forgotten all about tho old
country man when ono dnj nbout a
fortnight afterward a constable came
aboard and asked to see Captain Ma
han stating that I must appear In
court the next day at 10 oclock as a
witness I could not think for the life
of me of any case In court that I knew
auythlng about You enn Judge my
surprlso when I saw Daniel Webster
and recognized him as my old friend
that asked so many questlous lie
wns laying down the Inw to tho court
In great shape using all the nautical
terms In Bowdltchs Navigator and
to hear him talk boys youd thought
hed been to sea nil his life
It appeared that thero had been a
collision in the harbor and the owners
were settling which ship was to blame
lu court Webster was counsel for ono
of the merchants Ho Introduced me
to the court as Captain Malum one of
the ablest sea captains that sailed out
of Boston Well boys you better be
lieve that I turned red as a lobster as
I wns only a skipper of a schoouer I
answered all tho questions Mr Web
ster usked mo In regard to sailing a
ship under certain circumstances
Ono of the boys said Well captain
