Wiietiier the now treaty between the
United States and Japan Is entirely fair
and just to this country cannot yet be
determined. It Is only duo to assume that
Japan U too bonornhlo and upright to
have taken any unfair advantage of an

like Mr. Greaham In the negotiation of
such a compact.
The present session of Congress should

building at 1,109 Market street, Philadel

Natl'BALLY, the Democrats wish to
economize. They have prostrated the In
dustries of the country, well-nigh bank
rupted the Treasury, converted the In
variable surplus of former years Into ft
deficit, and vastly Increased the public
debt. Their last desperate resort is to
make as niggardly and Inadequate ap
propriations as possible. Thus they will
seek a reputation for economy, and be
able to tell how much less thoy spent than
the Republicans. Such trickster work
will uot avail. The people of this coun
try do not want small appropriations aB
such. They want appropriations wisely
made and properly expended. They would
rather spend ten millions and have ten
millions' worth of results to show for It
than to ppend only one million and have
no results That Is a fact which Demo
cratic statesmen of the Georgia and Ken
tucky school do not seem nble to make
room for in their brains. But It Is a fact
which the censlble and patriotic men in
Congress ought to keep in mind when
dealing with this miserable travesty of an
appropriation bill.

1 1 is a notion of Mugwump that they
punished the Republican party In lSlii for
going too far In the tariff of 1S90 and then
punished the Democrats lu lf-01 lor their
errors iu the present tariff. Thellyonthe
coach heel always has Ills own polut of
view H-'publluans do uot befool thein
xelveb with the notion that the people
carry to their mlud come Ideal tariff
which neither party has yet attained.
Tuey believe that the half-million voters
who supported .Mr. Cleveland In 1892 In
Korrlu-ru tntea between the Atlantic and
the MissUsip 1, and win have voted Re
bublican ticket in 1894, have learned by
practical ix -erlenoe tint the departuie
from the Republican policy has brought
them grave dlsmiter. Men who know this
best must also know that the falsehoods
and the prejudices which Inftueuoed mul
titudes lu 1892 have been dispersed to a
surprising extent by experience. Kxaotly
what the people want In not now the ques
tion by their votes a Democratic Presi
dent is Btlll In oflioe. But they plainly
prefer a return to the Republican polloy
as a whole, lu place of the policy Demo
crats have developed. It is Just as well to
(jult the notion that the Atnerioau people
meant In 1H exactly what they meant in
,jfi)r2 i UJhe change operated mightily, and
fie'ty' tfj who does not see It. What
iever th(t"Serlliot of 1892 meant, we may
means not only something umerent, but
o x tUe whole something directly opposite.

general manager of tho Associated Press,
issues a statement which Is In substnnco
n3 follows: "It cannot have escaped pub

there has been a persistent and malignant
endenvoron tho part ot a few New York
papers to discredit tho Associated Pross.
It was well known that mauy of those
who were most clamorous lu their pralso

for tho welfare of tho Associated Press
papers, were at tho samo moment appli
cants for admission to the Associated
Press, and iu some cases were offering

"Tho motives which Inspired this cam

this was no longer posslblo, bocnuso of a

of United Pross stock, nnd how thoy thou
secretly connived to push tho fortunes of
this rival concern, whilo they wero yet
members of tho exocutlvo commltteo of I
the Associated Press, Is a disgraceful story, '
with which most Intelligent journalists
aro too familiar.
"It would bo Impossible to answer lu
detail nil of tho fnlsohoods theso very fer

enough to say that tho Associated Press

Tho Germnn emperor reprimanded for
potty thievery! Impossible, you say, but
I sow It done, and In his own capital too.
It was In lh03, nt tho memorial banquet
held In honor of tho Into "red prlneo,"
Frederick Charles of Prussia, tho con
qucror of Metz, nt tho linlsorhof in Horlln.
Many of tho horoos of 1870-1 wero thoro
gouorals now retired or on the ovo of ro
Hrlngj Hlumenthnl, the tactician who di
rected tho Impetuosity ot Unser Fritz Into
channels that led to success; Von Papo,
commander of tho guards, and princes of
tho houses of Snxo und of Hohcnzollcrn.
Among tho comparatively "now" men
so styicd becauso tho young emporor
raised them, to tliolr high ofllco Count
Wntdcrsco was tho most conspicuous. This
general, who by his mnrrlago to tho em
press' aunt, tho Princess of Nocr, nco Miss
Loo of Now i'ork, entered Into some sort
of relationship with his sovereign, Is the
only mnn on earth privileged to treat his
imperious majesty In familiar fashion. It
is snld that tho emperor sometimes bo
stows on tho count the epithet of "undo,"
couplodwlth tho hearty "thou," that term
of endonrmcnt which tho royal Hohcnzol
terns havo made their own since tho days
of Queen Louise.
On this occasion tho official programme
was over, nnd tho gentlemen sipped tholr
coffco whllo conversing quietly. Tho em
poror had Invited Chancellor von Cnprlvl
to his sldo for n prlvnto confab. Tho two
scorned to bo engrossed In tholr subject,
and Wnldcrsco, sitting opposite, felt lonely
nnd perhaps n llttlo hit jealous too. Sud
denly tho oount was seen to unfasten a
golden ponoll from his watch chain, mark
ono of tho menu cards and hand It to the
servant behind his chair with directions,
Tho man bowod nnd a minute lator pre
sented tho card on a silver salver to his
mnjesty.
Tho omperor has a habit of decorating
his menu cards with all sorts of drawings,
nnd on taking tho pasteboard from tho
servant probably assuinod that one of his
friends, as ho styles thoso admitted to his
circle, was submitting n now Idea or motto
sultablo to tho occasion. Afterrendlng tho
marked passage, however, he at first looked
surprised, then roddoned. Ho thrust his
hand Into the side pocket of his hussar
jacket and nppoared annoyed.
Count W'nldersoo had expected this.
"Your mnjesty was caught In tho act,"
he cried. ''This means n lino or Imprison'
mcnt as suro ns thoro aro judges iu Ber
lin." But tho knlser apparently did not relish
tho joko. His fnco wrapped In unusunl
sevorlty, ho turned to tho servant, saying:
"I beg Major von Moltkt) nt once."
Tho adjutant reported, bowing low,
whon William cnught him around tho
neck and whispered to him. Moltko then
went over to Waldcrsec, nud, standing up
right, military fashion, reported as fol
lows: "Tho kaiser presents his compli
ments to his excellency his uncle, submit
ting thnt tho general, In splto of his lofty
notions, might bo tomptod to appropriate
some dessert, if ho hnd seven boys at homo,
or ono for that matter. But, not being a
father, his majesty soys, Count Wnlderseo
utterly fails to understand tho situation."
Tho mossago (I havo given it literally,
preserving Its qunlnt official stylo) was de
livered with telling offect, while tho dis
tinguished audience, that had noticed the
Incident, sat breathless. Then William
broko tho spell by rcnssumlng his jovial
attitude.
'-If my distinguished relative," ho (aid,
with bonhomlo, ' had a voico like Euleu
burg, I would order him to sing from
'GlIolo'lJiroua;,
"In mir scht ihr den Voter
. Was rudcgllch war, dass that er."
Tho passage on tho menu card read as
follows:
1 Guests aro requested not to toko des
sert from tho table. Hotel Keepers' regu
lations, section 14."
Of course it hnd no business on tho bill
of faro of n great banquet, and an Imperial
ono nt that. The hotel man said nftor
ward, apologetically, that it was tho stu
pid printer's fault, but there it stood out
In bold long primer, threatening tho dlro
things Wnlderseo had announced as tho
penalty fitting tho crime of crowding one's
pockets with sweetmeats at tho caterers'
cxpen e. And," he continued, "his maj
esty Is an old offender In that respect."
The mightiest monarch of the ago re

of them, in their brass cribs at homo, just
after delivering n world stirring eulogy to
tho momory of a victorious ancestor, who
assisted, sword In hand, in the reshaping
of Kuropo by thrco bloody wars)
Ho is not normal," tho critically In
clined Uerllners say. That Is a standing
phrase and rebuke with them, I havo
often trlod to get at the exnet meaning, In
Gorman, of the term, and after oonsldor
lng tho many sided opinions volunteered
must perforco oonclude that 'normal"
nnd "oommonplaee" aro synonymous with
the pooplo of tlKvkniserstadt, who, in spito
of their vaunted progrosslvonoss, havo nn
almost bigoted wnyof "shying" nt things
surpassing their Individual possibilities.
Tho kaiser Is always ahead of popular
thought. He Is a rapid thinker, nnd hav
ing settled n mntter In his mind ho nets
with surprising promptness.
Another thing about this emperor that
startles and almost frightens tho plncld
Gorman mind Is his pronounced Individ
uality some oull It his hankering for no
toriety In all matters of public or private
ooncem. He hos Introduced novelty after
novelty in tlie administration of state at
fairs and has labeled almost ovory ono of
them with the autocratic motto, ''Suproma
lox regis voluntas" "The king's will Is
tho highest lnw" a definition of bis office
that is nt ouoe offensive and utonable
no-tar thoconvltut'.onal reglmt it Prussia
tad Germany.
I heard Count Walderseo's opinion on
this subject.
'The kaiser," said tho strategist nnd
diplomat, "Is too proud and too conscien
tious ever to overstep tho limits of his
power, but nt the samo tlmo ho considers
himself In duty bound to onforco law and
discipline by personal exertions, if ncces
fcary. It so happens that occasionally, In
his utteranooi, in his recommendations,
in his orders, excessive onthusinsm carries
him too far, makes him shoulder responsi
bilities which, strlotly spanking, are out
side of his domain." Henry W. Fischer
