GOSSIP OF THE SMART SET
AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
WASHINGTON, Sept IS. (Special Cor
respondence.) Signs of the approaching
season are much In evldonce at the White
House, whore the finishing touches are
being put in anticipation of the early re
turn of the President and his family.
The social programme has, of course.
not been announced, but the Indications
are for unusual activity. There will be
the customary diplomatic tea, when the
wives of the three new Ambassadors will
be presented to society, and a renowil of
tne musJcal forenoons, when, upon invita
tion of Mrs. Roosevelt, the leading art
ists of the world will be heard by the
official and smart set
Bosides these, sevoral Informal after
noon affairs are being planned to admit
of larger companies being entertained
by the President's wife, and It is expect
ed that tho pace thus set by Mrs. Roose
velt will be maintained By the wives of
Cabinet officers. Then, as Congress con
venes earlier than usual, it Is more than
likely the ladies of tho legislative branch
of the Government will have more than
the regular Tuesday and Thursday recep
tions to help the socially reliable members
of the diplomatic corps to the gaiety of
national society.
Those events, coupled with the "unex
pected" affairs which may be counted
upon to occur at singularly regular in
tervals in all well-regujatcd seasons,
promise to keep the ginger and snap
evenly divided in the official world from
the ringing up of the social curtain until
the going down of the same on the eve
of Ash Wednesday.
The recent appointment of Captain Fitz
hugh Lee. Jr.. Twelfth Cavalry, N. and
Lieutenant Philip Sheridan. Jr., Fifth
Cavalry, to be aides to the President
completes the trio in attendance at the
White House of young officers whose
family name is one to conjure with In the
military and social annals of the nation.
Lieutenant U. S. Grant, IDL. the first to
be detailed, arrived in Washington early
In the spring, to succeed Lieutenant Ros
coe C. Bulmer as junior military aide to
the President The duties of these aides
are purely social and is usually limited
to two years, after which they are sent
to sea or to rejoin their regiments in the
field.
- t
The "redding up" at the White House,
as our Scotch friends would say. Includes

Emperor of Austria to President Van
Buren; the elegant vases of Sevres -ware
made after the pattern used exclusively
by the French Government for Its gifts

presented, to this Government on the oc
casion of his last visit to the States, and
the cabinet of Japanese' dolls, which Min
ister Takahlra brought as a special pres
ent to Mrs. Roosevelt
These souvenirs of other lands have
usually been presented to jnark some par
tlcular occasion of international Import
ance, and Include among other things the
oflico desk used by the Prosldent which
was fashioned out of the timber of the
Arctic relief ship Discovery at the In
stance of the late Queen Victoria, by
whom it was presented to Uncle Sam. The
Czar and the Mikado are now said to be
contemplating making notable additions
to this collection at the White House, to
be a lasting remembrance of the part
taken by President Roosevelt In bringing
about peace between Russia and Japan
According to the tentative plan, the
Czar's gift will be a pair of enormous
vases . made of lapis lazuli, adorned with
chased gold and mounted upon wonder
fully wrought malachite pedestals, while
the Emperor Matsu Hlto Is considering
the presentation of one of those Immense
eagles whose outspread wings alone are
unique examples of Oriental metal work.
It Is probable that .the gifts will be pre
sented through the Russian Ambassador
and the Japanese Minister residing in
Washington and will remain more or less
on public view In the state apartments
of the White House.
Matrimonially speaking, the season was
launched by the announcement, of the en
gagement of Miss Anne, elder daughter of
the Secretary of the Interior and Mrs.
Ethan Allen Hitchcock, to Lieutenant
Commander Wlllam 9. Sims. United States
Navy. The announcement came from
New Hampshire, where the family of the
bride-to-be has been Summering. The
wedding la Washington will bo one of the
late Fall events and the first to take place
In the Cabinet circle since the marriage
of Alice Hay, which followed very soon
after the wedding of her sister, Mrs.
Harry Payne Whitney.
The Misses Erma and Enid Shaw, daugh
ters of the Secretary of the Treasury,
returned to the capital on Wednesday with
their mother, and were joined a few days
later by their father, who came by an
other route in order to nil one of his
numerous engagements. The family will
spend the Winter at .the Arlington, having
given up their Massachusetts-avenue
home In the Spring in anticipation of the
early retirement of the Secretary from
the Cabinet of President Roosevelt.
The Secretary of the Navy and Mrs.
Bonaparte are expecting a vjslt from their
French cousin. Princess. Marie Bonaparte,
daughter of the celebrated savant. Prince
Roland, of Paris. On her mother's side
she Is the grand-daughter of M. Blanc,
the founder of Monte Carlo, from whom.
she Inherited an Immense fortune. This
will be the Princess' first visit to Amer
ica, and therefore the first meeting with
her illustrious American cousin, as tho
latter has never visited the land of his
forefathers.
s
The Secretary of Agriculture. Mr. Wil
son, Is the only member of the Cabinet
who has not taken a vacation this Sum
mer. His daughter. Miss Flora. Is still In
Paris, where she has been studying for
the past year, and no time is set for her
return, though her traveling companion.
Miss Evelyn Walsh, hast been at home
theso many months.
Among the newcomers In the diplomatic
corps is LI Kwoh-Chcng, grand-nephew of
the late LI Hung Chang. Mr. LI Is ac
companied by his wife, a daughter, Grace,
and a tiny baby, whose little Chinese
clothes are as wonderful as the costumes
of his mother. Many of the garments
are elaborately embroidered, and all of
them are Oriental, though the shoes are
strictly American, and made to fit Mad
ame's'feet which were never bound ac
cording to the usual Chinese fashion.
The women of the Chinese Legation are
quite the most picturesque figures in
W ashfngton society. They arc all small
and very affable In manner. They take
an actlvo interest In American social af
fairs, and are quick to adopt the habit of
driving or automoblllng. although going
to tne theater is their chief pleasure out
side of the home.
The wearing of a brand-new chrysoprase
Is a fad that has reached Washington
by way of the Russian Enralre from the
Far East The stone must be new not
merely recut for then only can the owner
De sure that It has never come under the
Influence of a sick person or one pursued
persistently by bad luck.
This Western revival of an Eastern cus
tqm recalls the superstition attached to
the historic chrysoprase lately presented
to the Louvre by ex-Empress Eugenie.
The unlucky ring had passed successively
Into the possession of Mario Stuart Marie
Antoinette and the Empress Eugenie. Its
nrst owner had been the Duchess d'Etam
pes, who died suddenly after a series of
misfortunes quite equal to the atrocious
111 luck that struck each of the Queens
who wore It after her.

FUTURE OF POLITICAL PARTIES
Modern Governmental Tendencies as Viewed by a
Socialist Philosopher Rise and Decline of Labor
Unions Why They Have Lost Influence cfi
PORTLAND, Sept 23.-(To tho Edl
tor.) That we are passing on Irito a new
era, there Is no question. Tho future
standing of political parties Is thelsubject
of thought amongst thinkers -and poli
ticians. Any prophecy on this subject
must be based on the relationship of
human institutions to ono another, the
vital difference between reform and rev
olution, and tho position of political par
lies, regarding both of them.
The superstructure of society Is the cap
italistic system of production and distribu
tion; In other words, the way the people
make their living. Our human Institu
tions, such as government religion, mar
riage, etc., are all subject to the first
For the reasons that as the way the peo
ple make their living changes, all other
Institutions change Inaccordanee with It
theroforo It Is the superstructure.
Next to consider Is reform and revolu
tion. Revolution means merely trans
formation, and is accomplished when an
entirely new principle Is either with force
or without It put In the place of an exist
ing order of things. Reform, on the other
hand, is when principle of tho existing
state of things Is continued and only de
veloped to more logical and Just conse
quences. The names do not signify. A reform
may be carried on by bloodshed and a
revolution In the profoundest tranquility.
The question of rcformtaken as X whole,
with but few (fxceptlpns, while they have
accomplished some good. In most ways
work hardships and even .create an evil
spirit from the fact that reformers see
the evil and legislate accordingly, but
fail to see the cause. A few cases of
note are worth reciting. Prohibition,
while it has undoubtedly done some good.
Its harm, and a very great one. consists
in -that It creates and engenders a law
breaking spirit Child labor. In spite of
the very best of laws In different states,
to ijrohiblt It, yet the evil is on tho in
crease, and worse than all. It creates and
encourages a spirit of perjury among the
parents and children. It Is rightly held
that you cannot legislate morals. This
Is due to the fact that morals and char
acter are so closely related to the super
structure of society or the way people
make their living that any legislation to
bo beneficial must find the cause of evil
In that structure. Has not the church
legislated against race suicide and divorce
and, in spite of all, those evils are on
tho Increase?
Government Is an outcome of the super
structure of society. Amongst all polit
ical parties we find one which sustains
the ruling class. All others exist for the
purpose of legislating against the evils
of the ruling class by the subjective class.
Let us examine the principles and pur
poses of the Republican and Democratic
parties.
The Republican party favors generally
a broad construction of the Constitution,
liberal expenditures, extension of the pow
ers of the National Government and a
high protective tariff. Among tho meas
ures with which It has been Identified
in whole or in part are the suppression
of the Rebellion, the abolition of slavery,
reconstruction and the resumption of spe
cie paymont
The Democratic party's distinctive prin
ciples are strict construction jof the Con
stitution, with respect to the. powers dele
gated to r the general Government and
those reserved to the states, and the least
possible Interference of Government with
Individual and local liberty of action.
Hence, it has opposed National centralira-
tlon. supported liberal extensidn of tho
electoral franchise, advocated low tariff
duties with a view to revenue rather than
that of protection, and contended for closo
limitations of the objects of public ex
penditures. Thus we can see that the Republican
party Is in harmony with the present
system; with tho greater centralization
of wealth, we see a corresponding central
ization of political power, and therefore
wo are drifting to a government of oli
garchy and paternalism. Therefore,' the
Republican party must grow as the sys
tem grows and will fall when It falls.
The Democratic party sprang from the
cvls of the superstructure, not from the
evils of the Republican party, as many
suppose. X failure was duo to recognize
this. It was a party of middlemen and
the masses, but withal a new party of
reform.
Tn the early Dart of tho 19th century
there came forth upon tho economic j
field the labor organizations. Their ob- i
Jcct -was to destroy tho evils of compe- !

members, shorter hours of work and a
greater share of the product of this,
labor. They were so successful in do
ing this Tjiat they were considered by
many as a remedy for "existing evils.
With tho concentration of Industry and
Invention of labor-saving- machinery,
came that large class . of unemployed
labor, which has gradually undermined
the labor unions and proved that theirs,
was a mere reform movement With'
this weakening of labor organizations
there came into existence In the politi
cal field an organization composed of
the unemployed, dismembered and
weakened unions and the great mass of
jworkingmcn. It is the Social Democ
racy. It does not deal "with reform but
Is revolutionary. Where Democracy
dealt with reform principles of po

M. and Madame Adhemar Dclcoignc
the former the -secretary of the Belgian
Legation, arc among tne diplomats now
in tho city. They are new In Washing
ton, having arrived after tho departure
of the Belgian Minister on his vacation
abroad with his American wife. Mon
sieur Delcoigne has already attracted
considerable attention by his military
bearing and striking resemblance to
Major Charles McCawlcy, United States
Marine Corps, master of ceremonies at
the White House functions.
An unexpected arrival during the week
was that of A. Grip, the Minister from I
Norway and Sweden. Mr.jGrip Is a Nor
wegian oy Dtrtn. and wnen ne text Wash
ington early In the season, it was un
officially announced that he had gone
home to ally himself with the new gov
ernment of Norway. His return at this
time when the negotiations between the
divided kingdom, of King Oscar are at
a standstill is considered rather signifi
cant and further developments are
awaited with interest
No sooner has Mr. Grip arrived In
Washington than Count Verdy du
Vernols, of tho German Embassy, de
parted on a leave of absence. The Count
goes especially to attend the golden wed
ding anniversary of his parenti at
Baden-Baden, which will be celebrated

Is now at Lenox. Mass., with hl3 wife.
Lady Susan Townley, having arrived In
New England by way of Canada. Lady
Townley Is the sister of the Earl of

throw the present superstructure of
society, tho competitive capitalistic
system of production and distribution,
and In its place establish a co-operative
commonwealth, with a greater democ
racy. Its growth- Is due to the weaken
ing of the unions, but In greater part
to the vast army of unemployed and
those working- at starvation wages.
With tho evolution of the capitalist
systom these evils naturally become
crroater and tho vote -will Increase to
such a great figure that it will astonish
the world.
It will then be seen that it is no
question of reform as Greenbackism.
Populism or the silver craze.
The qeustion then will be either to
sustain the present structure of so
ciety or revolution. There can be no
middle way All reform measures, such
as Government ownership of public
utilities and others must disappear. The
Republican party, supporting the pres
ent system cannot advocate them. The
Democratic party, being a party of re
form, must disappear as It has out
lived its usefulness.
Tnere were only two parties before
the Revolution in 1776. The issue was
such that there was no room for any
other. ,
During the Revolution there were
two parties, the Tories and tho Whigs.
The former opposed the revolution.
They were composed of the' ruling
class and others sent out by royal ap
pointment to covern tho colonists, tho
landed Interest, men of property and
rank who had mos to lose by upheaval
and Innovation, tho men of culture and
education. Washington was one of tho
few officers of the American Army who
was regarded by Tories as a gentle
man of birth, while the Continental
Congress was continually derided aa a
body of bankrupt "shopkeepers"' and
word spouting cobblers and tinkers,"
who found "mending" the state a more
lucrative Job than mending kettles and
patching shoes.
That the Democratic party must and
will disappear Is a certainty. As to the
outcome of the struggle it is useless to
prophecy, but we can look with an op
timistic and hopeful view to the future.
Never before in the history of our
country has tho workingman been
given so much to reading as at present
Fiction has no charm for them, but only
that that pertains to all the eciences.
Self-education of the working class Is
the salvation of the Nation.
