LONDON, Oct. 27. With the exception of
.ho unexpected activity of the Boers and the
reappearance before tho public of a states
man supposed to be politically dead, nothing
has occurred this week In London capablo
of dlnlnrLlne tho enthusiasm over tho home
coming of tho Imperial volunteer. The
mows of guerilla successes In South Africa
has prompted some of tho more serious puu
llcatlons to sound notc3 of ularni. Tho
Saturday Review begs Lord Roberts to
"tako a lesson from olio who was a greater
than he, namely. Cncsnr, and ruthlessly sup
press tho rebellion." "Tho truest mercy In
tho prcsont caso," says tho Globe, "is to be
merciless."
That fairly voices the averago opinions
of tho government organs, while a few out-and-out
radical organs scarcely conceal
tholr satisfaction arising from their ability
to say, "I told you so" In referenco to
tho war being long drawn out and engender
ing racial hatred that a century will not
dissipate.
An encounter as dramatic ns any that
Warred tho battlenoldR of South Africa
may shortly occur at Marseilles. The plan
of Josoph Chamberlain, tho secretary of
Btato for tho colonics, to go to Marseilles
to moot Mrs. Chamborlaln, wilt more than
probably bo effected Just about the time
that Mr. Krugor Is arriving at tho saino
port on tho Dutch cruiser Oeldorland. In
French opinion the simultaneous arrival
ct theso two lato rivals would afford op
portunities for demonstrations not too
pleasant for Mr. Chamberlain and which
might cause International complications
that would bo hard to settle peaceably.
I.rd Itoscbery'a Reappearance.
What Is freer from supposition and pcr
fcaps more vitally concerns Great Britain,
Is Lord Roscbery's reappearanco before
iho public and his enunciation of a new
definition of imperialism. Speaking on Fri
day beforo a meeting of tho Christian So
cial union.' this vorsntlle and brilliant
flguro in British politics struck a flguro
which meets with approval from all sec
tions of tho liberals, oven, those who were
most bitterly opposed to the former leador.
"Imperialism," he declared, "depends on
tho Integrity and heart of the emplro for Its
.Virtue."
Continuing, Lord llosebery said: "What
Is an emplro unless It is pillared on an Im
perial raco? Tho heart of tho empire Is
Great Britain, nnd the heart of Great Britain
Is London. You cannot afford to let the
sourco and center of the emplro decay or bo
poisoned, and this Is what you are doing If
jrou allow this Imperial raco to bo vitiated
and poisoned In tho dens of crime and hor
ror In whtch too many of them are reared at
this moment."
Lord Roaobery'a subtlo turn In the vtrtuo
fine, making Imperialism dopend upon In
ernal reform, has opened a door to the mal
contents and tho Star, which fought his
Jordnhlp tooth and nail, today declares "this
ia the true and only Imperialism for this
emplro of Great Britain."
H Heady to Accept Leadership. '
Sir Henry Campbell-Banncrman, who has
been tho liberal leader In the House of Com
mons up to tho present, Is said to be ready
to accept Lord Rosebcry's leadership. Com
bining this with Hosebcry's partial retire
ment from tho turf, the expectation is rife
that ho will return to tho arena of active
politics and make the fight of his life
against "tho mammoth majority" of the
present government.
It Is Interesting to note while speaking
of tho noxt Parliament what a task con
fronts the speaker of tho house of com
mons beforo ho masters the personnel of
the now bouse. It contains eight Wilsons,
four nalfours, four Smiths, four Thomases,
four O'Briens and four Murrays, to say
nothing of a dozen trios of similarly named
mombors and a perfect mazo of couples.
Church matters aro attracting no little In
terest. Tho resignation of tho bishop of
Hxoter, tho 'Right llev. Edward Henry
Blckerstoth, has given Lord Salisbury the
chanco to add more to the long list of
bishops of his creation, one which the
Konsltltos (antl-rltuals) have improved by
memorializing tho premier to appoint a
low churchman who will protect tho
Protestant Intorcst better than the former
bishop.
Aiunlgntuntliig Scotch Churches.
Within a tow days nnul steps will be
taken to amalgamate the two great Scotch
churchcB, the Free church and the United
Presbyterians, uudor the name of the United
Free- church of Scotland, which will ac
complish a greater breaking down of re
ligious barriers and divisions than the cen
tury haB wltncssod, '
The old qucsctlon of the morality of the
ktago Is once more discussed by tho Eng
lish bishops and clergy. This tlmo It Is the
Rochester diocesan conference, where sev
eral clergymen urged a swooping crusade
against tho Immorality of English players
and actors. Canon Jelf declared It was a
terrlblo thing to see a Christian man tak
ing tho part of a murderer and a Christian
woman playing the rolo of a harlot, now
so common In the London theaters. The
bishops of Rochester and Southwark,
however, persuaded a modification of the
resolution, tho bishop of Rochester telling
the clergy thoy would bo'aahamcd to utter
nuch statements beforo one delicate, ro
flned woman who was a friend of his In
tho profession. It was then agreed that
tho stago authorities, managers and ar
tists meroly required tho watchful atten
tion of the churchmen.
That tho memory of Charles Dickens Is
Hot guarded very Jealously la clearly shown
by tho fact that a house In Tavistock
square, wher the novelist lived nine years,
entertained the celebrities of tho day and
wrote "Bleak House" and other works, is
how in courses of demolition and that In a
very few days nothing will be loft of It.
The removal of this landmark, visited by
thousands of Americans, Is due to the Duke
of Bedford's desire tp erect on the site
fculldtngj whtch produce more revenue.

BERLIN. Oct. 27. This "veok's develop
raents have demonstrated what Immense
dllUcultlos tho now chancellor, Count von
Buelow, will have to overcome to bring
about something approximating a harmo
nlous cabinet both (or Prussia and the
emplro. The radical and liberal newspa
pers point out that pronouncedly reac
tionary and agrarian members of the cab
lnct, like Count von Mlqucl, Baron von
Hammcrsteln and Baron von Rhelnbabcn,
have no legitimate placo in tho new
regime and It was this portion of the prcsv
that seized upon tho Incident of .12,000
marks having been accepted by the head
of the Department of the Interior from
big manufacturers for tho cost of printing
circulars explaining the anti-strike bill
It would seem as if Count von Posadnwskl-
Wohner feels sure of tho emperor's ap
proval and will not resign utiles-) the Reich
stag during the forthcoming session forces
him to do so.
The agrarian party also published sev
eral utterances this week, Informing Count
von Buelow that if he Introduces the canal
bill afresh, as tho North German Uazette
promised, they will mako war on blm and
defeat him.
Prlnco Hohenlohe today gave a big fare
well dinner to the members of the cablnot
and Bundcsrntb. ,
More Confident of Peace In China
More sober views about China now pre
vail here, owing doubtless to the fact that
Count von Buelow Is known to entertain
reasonable Ideas about Germany's tangible
intercuts therein and his Influence as Im
perial chancellor upon tho emperor, espe
cially In foreign affairs, is decidedly greater
than Prlnco Hohenloho's. It Is now be
lieved the Chinese muddle will slowly un
ravel Itself and lead to a successful issue
without any' largo amount of actual hos
tilities. Tho utterances of the Bemt-offlclal
press this week show this belief. Only
the mllttnry party if dissatisfied with this
view. Doubts are t'till entertained here
regarding the valuo of the credentials of LI
Hung Chang and Prince Chang and their
ability to enforce the terms of any agree

peror Kwang Su aro regarded here with
suspicion and It is oven a possibility that
LI Hung Chang himself is their author or
instigator with the Idea of facilitating
tho negotiator's task.

Btreot wero gnthorod a crowd of cnthust
astlc Bryan shoutcrs, nil waving pictures
of the dtmocrntlc presidential candidate.
Somo ono In the crowd on the walk threw
a potato Into tho ranks -of a West Sldo
marching club going by. Tho potato hit
a marcher In tho eye jina forced him to
leavo tho ranks. Another marcher plunged
Into tho crowd and forced his way to tho
throwqr. Iu an InBtnnt thero was a freo-for-all
fight. Three companies of ;ho
marchers broke ranks' nnd with uplifted
canes rushed Into the struggling, shouting
mass on tho sidewalk. It took vigorous
work by over thirty policemen beforo things
were 'quieted down and In the meantime
black eyes and gory noses had accumu
lated to nn alarming extent. Tho parade
was replete with unlquo features. Woll
up toward tho head of tho parado and
preceding tho members of tho Marquotto
club, who wero In tally-hos, two elephants
lumbered along, bearing on their hugo
aides banners Inscribed, "O. O. P." Theso
wero the contribution of tho Marquette
club. Close behind tho elephants camo a
diminutive donkey. This wbb labeled, "I
Am a Sound-Money Donkey."
EHephnuta In Line.
The Hamilton club contributed a Btuffed
elephant appropriately r" cornted and
bearing various legends. Furnaces in full
bluBt. with rows' of perspiring workmen,
caught the fancy of tho crowd, as did an
enormous dinner pall, mounted on trucks
and festooned with canvas hams and loavos
ot broad.
Tho Chicago & Alton railroad employes
escorted a float representing a parlor
chair car. Near the center ot the parade,
borne aloft on poles by a hundred men,
was a huge bannor, a block In length, In
scribed "McKlnley and Roosevelt and four
years more of prosperity."
A sixty-foot plank, gilt edged and nron-
erly Inscribed, was borno on the shoulders
ot fifty uniformed men.
The parade was reviewed by Senators
Hanna, Mason and Cullom, National Com
mitteeman Henry C. Payno, Perry Heath
and others from tho balcony of tho Grand
Paeino hotel and around this nolnt tho
greatest enthusiasm of tho parado was
shown. Senator Hanna especially was
cheered by tho marchers and was kept
busy responding to the salutations.
Many out-of-town organizations were
represented in tho parade. The most prom
inent was a aciogntion of ICO from the
Americus club of Pittsburg, Pa., who wore
guests of the Hamilton club. Big march
ing clubs wero also present from Kenosha,
Wis., Rockford, Dixon and Deerlna-. III..
and from many of the nearby suburban

IMPERIALISM- IN AMERICA
Bunslan Newapnpers Take Serlnnaly
Foolish issue Bnlsrd by
Ilrynn.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 27. The Rus
sian press Is displaying consldnrablo In
terest In tho coming election In the United
States. Several organizations havo reached
tho conclusion that both parties occupy
vrtually the enrao position. Regarding Im
perialism, the Vlodomlshl says: "It 1b
Important to Europe which candidate Is
elected and It will be usoful to observe
tho advanco of tho wave."
The paper adds: "American Imperialism
regards colonics as a means not arf an
end. America wishes economic dominion
ovor tho universe, which explains her ef
fort to girdle the world with colonies.
It desires a foothold In China nnd even In
Turkoy, as the recent indemnity affair
snowed. American Imperialism, unllko
that of England, Is not due to economic
necessity, since Its own market Is big
onoush.
The paper expresses the onlnlnn ihnt thn
Imperialistic wave hns Increased markedly
sinco 1898 and It contrasts imperialism
with Monroeism, adding: "Monroeism Is
ombarrassing to tho imneriallats. who r ii -
allzo that American cannot Interfere In
other hemispheres whllo forbidding Euro
pean Interference on tho American hemi
sphere." GUILTY OF SAVAGE CRUELTY

Compares the Platforms.
Take tho nlatforms nR n IT. nnra I n .-, ra f-
tlon. in that of tho republicans thero are
a number of what may bo called sound dem
ocratic principles, but In that of the so
called democrats thurn la nnl u .lr.1. Jl..
Iniitlvely riemocr-tlr
Tho republican platform clearly and dis
tinctly supports tho tlmo-worn doctrlno of
tnrlff protection for homo Industries. A
platform without a declaration In favor of
a protective tariff would not be republican,
and they aro to bo respected for their can
dor nnd honesty In roannounclng It at this
time.
It mny not bo pleasant to hear democratic
administrations arraigned for their ubortlvo
efforts in the direction of tariff reform, but
It Is legitimate party capital. On tho other
hand, what Is thoro in tho so-called dom
ocratlo platform to lndlcato in the slight
est manner that tho democratic pnrty holds
or has over held any opinion upon tho tariff
question? Tho only mention of tho word
tarllf Is when It Is used In connection with
trusts, which are threatened with tho pun
ishment of having their specially favored
articles of manufacture or production placed
upon tho freo list. Instead of being an
nounced as n matter of high principle It Is
hero proposed to uso tho tnrlff hb an Instru
ment of governmental torture, which In
practical application may bo mado to favor
friends and cbastlBo enomlcs. The incon
sistency of tho proposition so far as It con
cerns trusts Is shown In the fact that the
most objectlonnblo trusts In popular opin
ion aro thoso which In no manner can be
affected by our tariff laws.
Thon, too, upon tho money question tho
bo. called dcmocrntlo platform has not a
Blnglo tenot which Is In harmony with the
teachings of Its great men, of tho past.
It may bo said that tho opinions of theBo
,men aro out of date; that almost any young
statesman ot these days can handle the
current questions bettor than thny could.
In somo respects this Is true, but tho po
sition taken by them upon tho money
question Is founded upon truths which
have always exlHted and will nnver die.
They aro Just as strong today an thoy over
wero nnd wo aro at this very tlmo enjoy
ing tho fruits of what theso men In tholr
day planned and conceived for our wel
fare. Thomas Jefferson's Pnrty.
Thomas Jefferson may ho called the
father of the democratic party. The In
auguration ot the financial establishment
of tho young republic was largely dlroctod
by him. The first mint act passed la 1732
waa In Us most Important particulars thn
consummation of views expressed by him
ten years beforo Its passage. At that time
tho republic had no metallic money ot Its
own coinage,
Mr, Jefferson In his "Notes" recom
mended that tho monoy unit bo fixed upon
colns of both cold and silver. Lnklmr tha
Spanish dollar, which was tho . oln of the
largest circulation, as tho baBlu for the
silver unit. Tho ratio to bo declared be
tweon cold and silver ho ntmnrifici lA v.
"a morcantllo problem altogether" and that
"Just principles will lead us to disregard
legal proportions nltogcthor" and to adopt
tho ratio which would bo Indicated by the
market relation of tho two metals. The
ratio declaration In the so-cnlled Hnmn.
cratlc platform Is exactly opposed to that
of Jefferson.
In their case It Is tha mnrkn riin
which Is disregarded altoicother nnii .hi.
dlvlno legal ratio substituted in Its place,
Thero Is no moro apology for the assertion
of the io to i ratio at this tlmo than there
would have been for Jofforson if h in hi.
tlmo had declared for a ratio of 5 to t
for tho reason that that was the ratio In
the good old days of Henry the Eighth of
blessed memory.
Silver men declare that silver va .
monetized In 1873 and exrent in t..
exact date thoy are unquestionably cor
rect. It has boen demonetized for nearly
thirty years nnd In order to monetlxe it
as Jofferson proposed in 1782 the demo
cratic party, If faithful to his memory,
would never havo declared in favor of a
ratio of IS to 1 when the market ratio Is
known tO bo 31 to 1. Thov wnnlri
have favored tho making of a dollar out
of less than 60 cents worth of silver' and
authorize its uso In the paymont ot con
tracts mado in the current gold dollars.
