They may have some difficulty explaining to their leader how this slip occurred. But that Is be- tween them and him. The serious question is, Just how binding are the Bryan instruc- tions? The resolution on this point reads: Resolved, That as an evidence of our een two fac ions struggling for love and faith in W. J.

It is estimated that it W be well along in June wre the big show is really ready for visitors. But everything points to a wonderful when the whole prog The record which th have made is notable, IS cel create a sensation throghout the world of buyers and sellers. The official c contains the names of 6,564 Americans with Scods on display, more than three times as many as represented France at Chicago, and more than three times as many as will represent any other nation at Paris this year. In other words, the United States stands second only to France, whom every circumstance favors. ‘The effect upon the world market of so large a display of American goods is hard to estimate, yet it is certain to be great. The advance of American manufacturers into every port during the past dozen years —indeed, within the. past five years—has been upsetting the calculations of some of the oldest exporting establishments In exist- ence. The American manufacturer seems to be at last awakening to the necessity of carrying his goods abroad with a special view to their suitability. He is studying the markets more closely than ever tefore, here and there equipping outposts for dis- piay and instruction. There Is a great deal of ground to cover yet. nowever. The en- ormous exhibit of American goods at Paris ne will not convince the world that America is the conqueror of the markezs of both hemispheres. ‘There must be persistent research gn the part of the exporter. He must seek to please the people to whom he would sell. It ¢ not always suffice to put an article of American manufacture into a window, label it “U. S$." and stamp !t with a reason- able price. While in some cases 5 ticle is just what the foreign buy’ in others it represents an, unknow tity to him. Other exporters have sought him out and labored with him and per- ded him to buy their goods. They have voided offending his prejudices and have tried to please his eccentricities. | Why should not the American exporter do as much? Why should the latter merely stick his commodities on a pedestal in a fair and fold his arms and wait for buy fet this is what too many American exporiers do even yet, as will be shown by the least = of consular reports submitted for a long es of years. They need to breaden and conciliate. The Paris fair may prove the final argu- ment in favor of this change of method. When the American exhibitors arrive in person and see their propondera over all other nations, aside from the home coun- try, they may awaken to a full appreciation of their opportunity and conelude that it will be good business in the future to carry the war to the ends of the earth, to send ferth an army of skirmish2rs and negotia- lors and to make the American mills capa- ble of producing precisely what is wanted, whatever the latitude or iongitude or the peculiarities of race. —_——__ + + ____ The East and Bryanism. A story printed In New York represents Senator Jones of Arkansas as having been in town there the other day soliciting, but without result, subscriptions to the demo- cratic national campaign fund. The local party leaders with fat wallets, or in touch with men who possess them, are sald to have avoided meeting the distinguished visitor. This is probably a campaign yarn. In the first place it is too soon to begin passing around the hat. In the second place an experienced solicitor would not do business with a brass band and be found out. And In the third place Mr. Jones has not yet been selected to conduct the next national campaign of his party. But the time will come for passing around the hat, and somebody will be charged with that duty. Wl his experience be similar to that now reported of Mr. Jones? The Star touched upon this pofnt on ‘Tuesday in commenting on the suggestion of Governor Pattison of Pennsylvania for Mr. Bryan’s running mate, and then ex- pressed the opinion that if Mr. Bryan 1s again to be the candidate the east will not be good hunting for the democracy either for funds or votes this year. Why should it be? The Bryanites are not only against eastern Interests, but they hold the east especially responsible for the conditions, financial and other, which, as they assert, oppress the whole country. The Bryanite ment {s an anti-eastern movement. Why then should the east subscribe to 1t? Why help it along in any way? Why, in- hould not the east, as a matter of self-preservation, go solidly against Mr. Bryan and his whole populistic outfit? Mr. Bryan is essentially a sectional candl- date. He represents certain western an- tagonisms to eastern influences and poli- cies. He cannot combine the west and the tin his support. He would fail aignally if he were to try it. He will not try it. The east will remain “the enemy's coun- try’ to him. He will hold on to the west— to as much of it as has not shaken him off since 1896—and try the old combination with the south once more. That fs his only hope. The east would not accept him even in diluted form. Were he to trim In an effort to catch the favor of the east he weuld not only miss that connection but at the same time would weaken himself in the west, and so fall between the two sec- uons as between two stools. —_—_—_+ + =—___—__ The First Governor of Porto Rico. The President's selection of Assistant Sec- retary Allen to be the first civil governor of Porto Rico commends itself as wise and promising of good results in the island. Mr. Allen has served In the House of Rep- resentatives four years, has a wide business experience, and during the past two years he has displayed exceptional administrative talents a3 second in charge of one of the most important. departments of the govern- ment. His record as assistant secretary during the war with Spain, after taking hold upon sudden summons, redounds to his great credit. Painstaking and thor- ough, he has grasped large situations firm- ly and has proved himself of rare worth to the government. Such men are valuable in places of responsibility, especially when their integrity is far above all possible re- proach. As civil governor of Porto Rico Mr. Allen will have a trying task to per- form. His present utterances are those of a man modestly confident of his ability to cope with whatever emergencies may arise m de: and willing to consult the wishes of the islanders in all matters in which they should be immediately considered. —————— ++. —___.

That fs an Interesting story which comes from the Capitol that during the skirmish- Ing in the Porto Rico battle In the Houso Wednesday certain republicans threatened | to bolt the bill if they were not given assur- ances that the bill regulating the sale of oleomargarine would be forthwith taken up sincerely and pressed to {ts passage. Tho incident discloses the earnestness with which the dairymen and the farmers of the country are seeking relief from the fraudu- lent practices which for several y2ars have been despoiling their business. Every cow owner in the country, every honest handler of dairy products, every houseke2per, is di- rectly concerned in this campaign for fair trading. It ts no longer a fight for pure foods alone. There fs no assault upon the character of the butter imitations when they are frankly presented as such. By this time the people of the country have sufficiently studied the matter to know fairly well whether they want to eat real or imitation butter. But thay need the protection of the law to enable them to ex- ercise their choice in this regard and to shield them frem fraud. It is to Dre | epee nntet eon lol ir 8 Alrite hoped that as a result of this bit of warn- ing Wedn2sday the leaders of the House are convinced of the advisability of putting the Grout bill—not the Lorimer bill, which is tainted with suspicion, but the Grout bill, which is known to represent the real dairy interests—upon its passage without further delay. The republican managers of the floor have it in their power to serve a very large percentage of the farmers of the country by this legislation. If they stand stubbornly in the way of an honest enactment calculated to r2inforce the present laws to regulate this traffic they will open the way to a serious Issue in the forthcoming presidential and congres- sional campaigns. —_-+ + = —___ Governor Roosevelt has been getting so much exercise with the vice presidential rumor that he has doubtless found it diffi- cult to keep up his customary work with the punching bag. ——__ + + = ___ Scme Kansas City hotels propose to put six men in a room during convention week.

Let springtime joys delight each soul As prospects brighten daily; If Easter eggs we cannot roll, We may throw snow-balls gaily. A Squeeze. “Don't you think that our relations to the Porto Ricans ought to be closer?" “Certainly,” said Senator Sorghum. “What we want to do is to get as close to ‘em as possible and give ‘em a good squeeze.” Locating the Indolence. “All you want to do,” said Mr. Corntossel, “43 to git Josiar started right. You'll find that he ain't got a lazy bone in his body.” “Mebbe not,” was the answer. “His bones is all right, but he seems to have a good eal o' trouble gittin’ his muscles to haul em around at all lively.” Wholly Discouraging. “Did you bet anything while you were at the races?” “Ye: said the sad-eyed man. “Lose?”* “No; I won $20." “But you are not laughing merrily and otherwise behaving in a proper and con- sistent manner.” “I don't feel like laughing.

From the Philadelphia Press. The route having been virtually decided upon and the first step practically taken it will not be many years before this country has a Pacific ocean cable of its own. Even if the military necessities of the government did not demand such quick communication the rapidly developing commerce between America and Asia would make it necessary, The United States will be none too early In this field. Great Britain {s preparing to lay a Pacific ocean cable stretching from the city of Vancouver to New Zealand and thence to Australia. Its total length will be 7,086 miles, one stretch from Vancouver to Fanning Island alone being 3,561 miles, or longer than any existing ocean cable, If, however, the House of Representatives passes the Senate bill at this session and the President signs It, work can be begun at once and the United States have a cable laid and in working order to Hawall, at least, before the British government begins its Pacific project. Good Friday, From the New York Herald. The holding of services not alone tn the Episcopalian and Catholic but by many evangelical churches, together with the di- minished attendance at places of amuse- ment and the closing of the Wall street and commercial exchanges, marks the widening observance of the day of the Pas- slon. From the e@irliest times the church has solemnly observed the festival. In England Good Friday has long been one of the two days—the other being Christmas—marked by suspension of business. The observance has now become so general here as to per- ceptibly ,affect the aspect of life in the metropolis. Tonight also the great Hebrew festival of the Passover will begin, and prepara- tion for the commemoration of this materi- ally accentuates the visible change in the current of everyday life. It is well to have these days, on which men may pause in the selfish struggle for pelf to reflect upon other things—and to remember their breth- ren to whom fortune has been unkind. ——_— = ____ What of Quay?
