The order was sent on request of the state de- partment appeals for relief of Tuxpan refugees having come from Rear Admiral Caperton, commanding the American squadron in the Gulf of Mexico. The number or nationality of the Tuxpan refugees was not stat- ed. “Capitalizing the Flag.” (South Norwalk Sentinel.) It's all very well to say that Amer- icans going to Europe in these peri- lous times should travel on American schips. _But when it develops that American lines sailing from our ports are few and far between, and that the rates on them have been raised to an almost pronibitive figure the situa- tion isn’t so simple. The biggest of our trans-Atlantic steamship lines has been accused of “capitalizing the Stars and Stripes” at tie expense of passengers who fear to cross the sea excépt under their own flag. Rates for passage which were already high enough for a rea- sonable profit, have been raised to two or three times the prices charged by British liners. Several diplomats, rather than submit to the exorbitant charges, have cancelled their reserva- fions and sailed on foreign ships. The behavior of the Mtile group of men now monoplizing and capitalizing the American flag in the Atlantic has aroused widespread - criticism, While we're asking American pass- egers to be patriotic—and safe—in patronizing only American vessels, we might urge the vessel owners themselves to contribute a little pat- riotism. The Knocker. (Hartford Courant.) The knocker is a. hypocrite; he fawns before one—and stabs when the back is turned; he cloaks bitter personalities in honeyed words; he is a spy and a snéak. Unhappy 'aim- self, he grudges happiness aad suc- cess to others; he grovels in the un- cleannesses of life and seeing the sky only as reflected in the murky pools of his thoughts, all his days are grey and dingy. Art, beauty, refinecment, improvement, are not for him. May { a jast Heaven pity him in his ignor- cowardice and destpuctiveness. ance, TWILLUAM JENNINGS BRYAN.
