Do the People Rule?
The prospect of the passage of the
postal savings bank but by tins ses
sion of courgoss poems to be very
dubious. A modified and unsatisfac
tory bill passed the souate but even
this has met with such bitter oppo
Bition in the house that there is no
probability of any kind of a bill be
coming a law Ibetoro the house ad
journs. The republican party in their
national platform KOleinuly declared
themselves in favor of this law and in
most of the congressional districts
throughout the country this plat
form was unanimously e'Joiod and
yet the congressmen ducted on this
platform as soon as they are safely in
their seats, suddeuly exorcise a
change of liuarc and vote and act in
direct opposition to the desires of the
people who placed tlioin in authority.
The.great mass of the people would
like to know what subtle influence
was brought to bear to bring about
this sudden change of views on the
part ot their reurenentutives and they
ask themselves the question, "Do the
People Rule?" It is hard to charge
the great bankers of the nation with
attempting to thwart the will of the
people and yet they are the oulv ones
that are seumiugly interested in the
defeat of this measure. Millions of
money dopositodjn the solid banks of
the country does not bear interest,
and yoD it is loaned out to business
men at six per cent and upward. The
bankers seem to be alarmed lest
their depoists would be withdrawn
and deposited where thoy will draw a
small rate of interest. The bill now
before congress is not intended to
work hardship on any existing finan
cial institutions, and its passage
thus would in no way affect their
business. The main object of the law
is to oause a withdrawal of the vast
sums of mouoy stored away in safoty
deposit, vaults, cellars and attics and
place the samo in circulation. If the
government did not pay any interest
whatever it would still be a good law,
as it would enable small depositors,
many of whom have often boun vic
timized in panicky times, to place
their money where they know it would
be absolutely safe. Postal savings
banks are in successful operation in
nearly every civilized country on
earth and there is not the slighte
reaHou why they could not be success
fully operated in this country. It was
said of the late bobs 1'woed that he
did not care what a man's opinions
were before election it wus after oloo
tion that he did business with him.
When one thinks over whut congress
men promise to do and what thoy are
actually doing they are upt to think
that.thure are still Buss 'lweods in the
country and that some of them are
, bloukmg the mnnnno of the postal cur
rency bill. If this congress noes not
act favorably upon this important
measure another one will and the rep
resentatives of Wall Hiroetwill un
doubtedly find that a future congress
will not call on them for advice
when a new measure was being con
sidered. The house military committee recent
ly reportod adversely on tho bill plac
ing the name of (ieueral Diuiiel K.
S.clIob om the lUhcd Hit of the
armv with tho rank of lieutenant
general. While the committee highly
aiiprociated the somen tho distin
guished ollicer had rondoroil his coun
try yet thoy oould not soo their way
clour to placo tho name of a civilian
on tho retired list of tho regular
army. Gen. Hloklor's name has been
permanently before the country for
more than halt a century, Ho was
oliii ted to cuiigi't'S from Now York
Uity in 185(1 haviug previously served
ill both branches of the New York
legislature, In 1850, for alleged
alieuiation of his wife's iifVections, ho
shot and instantly killed Philip Uiirton
Key, a prominent attorney of the
city of Washington and sou of the
author ot the Stiir Spangled ISiiimer.
After a very sensational trial ho was
uoquitted and returned to his seat in
the the house. At the breaking out
of tho war he wus appointed a
brigadier general, and for gallantry
of action on many bloody battle
Holds bo was rapidly promoted. At
tho battle of Gettysburg ho was in
command of a corps and lost a leg in
tho sanguinary engagement. After
tho war he was for many y. ars minis
ter to Si niii. .Although piolably not
Hi uiftigont ciroumsruiicoa congress
might ha.'o strained a point and placed
the need Honoral's name on the roll of i
honor of his country's defenders for a ,
short time.
New York Btate spends annually

EDWARD VII
King Edward VII diod from pneu
monia at 11:45 Friday, May 6th, at
Buckingham Palace. Death claimed
the greatest ruler of the world. King
Edward was takon sick a week before
his death. After three days a serious
complication began to develop; The
fourth day bis physicians issued a
bullotin that stirred the whole nation
to its.deptbs. On the sixth day the
King was doad.
Nearly all members of the King's
immediate family wore at hia bedside
when the king died Just before the
end came the royal patient rallied and
spoke weakly to those about him.
"I know it is all over," b.e said,
"but I think I've done my duty. "
Those were his last words.
The first official act of the new
King, George V, was performed im
mediately after his father had breathed
his last, lie dispatched to the Lord
Mayor of London the announcement
of Edward' VIl's death, in pursuance
of an ago-old custom. His telogram
read :
"I am deeply grieved to inform you
that my beloved father, the King,
passed away peacefully at 11 :45 to
night. (Signed) "George."
The news that the end of King Ed
ward's reign had come was not a sur
prise at the last. The pooplo had been
expecting it any hour since the even
ing bullotin was posted at Bucking
ham Palace, and flashed throughout
the kingdom. The capital received it
without excitement but sadly, for the
Kiuu with his own people was un
questionably one of the most popular
rulors in the worm, no was regaruea
as one of the strongest forces making
for the stability ot the peace of the
empire.
The shock to ureat Britain ana to
the world was tremondous. King
Edward was sincerely loved through
out the length and breadth of Eug-
aud's posessions. no was lovea as a
great sou of a noulo mother, and he
was loved for luuiseit oecause ne nan
in his character that rare commingling
of domestic simplicity with kingly
dignity which made him justly the
first gentleman ot ureat Britain.
Politically, the doath of Edward
VII contains grave potentialities.
The commons is now engaged in "re
forming the house ot lords." To
Edward a liberal ministry had looked
with confidence for the creating of
snob peers as would carry out the
will of the poople as expressed at the
last election. Now a new King stops
forward to take Edward's plaoe.
What attitude he may assume in this
the greatest political crisis England
has faced in generations, remains a
problem.
As a statesman he was act've and
successful particularly so in the field
of foreign affairs. The fact that be
was the idol of the people made him a
useful instrument of the ministry and
enablod him to wield more influonca
than had been given the throne in the
past. Ho was an able diplomat and
in all the more important questions of
foreign policy during his short reign
he mado himself folt.
HiB influence with the ministers in
an advisory capacity was much more
prououuoed than that of lueon Vic
toria, although his altitude on the
political questions of the day was not
defined.
Edward VII assumod the throne on
tho death of Queen Victoria, January
23, 11)01, so that he was king less than
ton years.
In personal appearance King Ed
ward was the topical Englishman
Ho was rather bolow thb average
Btature, of strong and heavy build.
HiB ruddy face betokened good health
and good spirits up to a short time
ago, and he was regarded as a model
for quite refinement of dross and
bearing. At state functions in which
he participated, King Edward revived
all the pomp and oireuniHtauce of
mediaeval days. He drove to West
minster on the opening of parliament
in ouo of the sumptuous royal coaches
attoudod by heralds, equerrios, out
ridors, and a vast retinue, forming a
pageant of royal splendor. On -these
oocusious tho King wore the full
robes of majesty.
TaotfuluoBH, which he possessed to a
marked degroo, was a conspicuous
characteristic of tho late King, al
though ho was always frank, loyal
and warm-hearted.
Ho was born at Buckingham Palace,
Novoiubor i), 1841, the sen of Queou
Victoria and Prince Albert of Saxe
Ooburg anil Gotha. Educated by pri
vate tutors on a plan outlined bv his
father, he later studied at Edinburgh.
Oxford and Cambridge A long per
iod of travel followed, during which
ho wont to Europo and the East. In
18(10 he made a triumphant tour
through the United States and Can
ada. Tho Prince was marriod Maroli 10,
18H3 to Princoss Aloxandra, oldest
daughter of the Danish Prince who
some mouths later became King Chris
tian l.v. Six children' were born, two
ot whom the Duke of Clareuce and
I'rinoo Alexander diod. The surviv
ing children are Goorgo Frederick,
Prince of Wales, Duke of Cornwall
and York, who now becomes king;
Princess Louise, who was married to
the Duko of Fife; Princess Victoria
Alexandria, and FriuooBH Maud Ohar
lotlo. who was married to Prince
'Vir r uenumrK, now iving naaaou
11 of Norway.
The King was of the houso of Han
over, which dates from the succession
to tho throne ot King George I In
KM.
Twice before ascending the throuo
Edward's life was despaired of.
In the summer of lHtiO tho Prince of
Wales started for a tour through Can
ada, in compliance with a promise
Than Sorry

given by Queen Victoria, and was
everywhere received with great en
thusiasm. Aa soon as the tour was
arranged, the president of the United
States wrote a personal letter to his
"good friend," Queen Victoria, say
ing that the people of the United
Statos would be glad if the Prince
could visit America as well.
It would have been ungraoions to
have declined, but at the same time
the position was not altogether easy
to manipulate. It was solved by the
Queen's accepting President Buchan
an's invitation, and explaining that
the Prince would come to Washiugtou,
not as the prospective King of Eng
land, but as "Lord Renfrew,)' the
name under which he traveled incog
nito. St. Johns was the first spot reached
by the Prince, who was accom
panied on his travels by the Duke
of Newcastle, General Hruoe, Majoi
Teosdale aud a large suite. He was
greeted with loyal warmth wherever
he went, and acquitted himself nudor
utl binrla nf ni runr.lHtjillCOH with diff
nity aud tact. At montreal he wtys
especially well received, and the city
showed to great advantage with it?
fine decorations. Ho was in time to
lav the last stone of the bridge over
the St. Lawrence, thus completing an
imnortaut nioco of engineering.
Twice, at least, ho wont to soo the
Falls of Niagara, and on one occasion
Blondin made his astonisbning cross
ing on stilts, and even carried a man
across the tuaming waters taieiy.
The intrenid athlete wf s prefonted to
i he prince, and was eager to have the
honor of carrying him across on the
tight rope, an offer which, needless
to say was declined with thanks.
Nor, many Americans are aware that
a relio of the Declaration of Indepen
dence owed its recovery to a place ot
honor to the Prince of Wales. When
rhe prince was in America, for the
first and last time as a young man,
he was taken to Independence Hall,
Philadelphia, which contains various
mementos of the chief historical event
in the story of tho United States.
He was shown portraits ol the chief
protagonists, the manuscripts of the
famous Declaration. Hut none ol
these affected him nine . At last h
was conducted to the garret whet
the bell was rung whon the Declara
tion was proclaimed. Immediately
his curiosity was aroused, and he
asked where the bell was It lay hid
den among all sorts of debris in what
had become a lumber room. The
priuce gazed at the cracked bell, when
it had been rescued from its olisi urity,
and said to those win Htoorl aiound
him: "This old bell is the greatest
relio this republio l.a today, lu-tead
of being here, covered wit'i (h s ac
cumulated dirt, it s'iouKI occupy the
cbiof placo in the land of iudepon
dencor It is to you what Magna
Charta 's to England. It is cracked,
hut it is an inspiration. Believe me,
it affect me more than anything I
have been shown." The bell was
henceforth taken to the hall.
One of the happiest incidents of the
Americn tour was the prince's visit
to the tomb of Goorgo Washington.
The spectacle of the great grandson of
George III standing bareheadoil at
tho grave of the great patriot touched
every American hoart. It was one of
those sincerities which do nioro to
weld nations together than all the
treaties that can evor be signed. The
event inspired E. W. H. Myers to
write a poem which gained the chan
cellor's prize at Cambridge.11 His
verses on the Prince of Wales at Wash-
iutgou's tomb had a certain happy
phrasing aud originality of thought
wluoh. won attention.
"In a. private capacity I am about
to visit before I return home that io-
nnrkable land which claims with us
common auoeitry, and in whose exa
traordinary progress every English
man feels a common interest."
After calling at Dotroit and Olnoa
go, the priuce came to Washington to
pay his rohpects aB "Lord Renfrew'
to "the president. He arrived ou Oc
tobor 30, and was President Buchan
an's guest at the White House, the
olUoial home of the president. Mr.
Buchanan had no wife to discharge
the duties of hospitality, his niece,
Miss Harriet Lane, acted as hostess
After tho conclusion ot the prince s
stay in America, she received a fine
portrait with his autorgaph aB a me
meuto of a pb'asnnt visit.
Saturday is usn.illy the gayept night

tho city. It was a capital in mourn
ing. All theatres aud musio halls

People wandered idly abonr'Mio streets
