tone of the speeches that were to follow. From first

South Africa on the jrronnd that it would mean a

Passing to the population, he is even more amasing.
"Whence," he asks, "comes the undeniable energy so
'' characteristics of the people of the United States?"
The foreigner, he answers. The native American
stock would not surpass the world in energy, if the
immigrant from the world surpassed didn't come
here and energize us. This theory is not only original
but coruscates with genius.
Our women are running us by leaps and bounds,
i They rule by force, not tenderness.
"There is probably little exaggeration in saying
that the burthen of latent contempt heaped by the
gentry in England upon the middle class, is in Amer
ica heaped by women upon man. In both cases we
meet with the same passive acceptance, the same
absence of all spirit of revolt."
Our men are sensation-ridden and unstable; with
out a well-balanced emotional life; lacking in com
pleteness and, with the exception of high-strung
New Englanders, of poorly developed individuality.
But in spite of all we may be saved. The Monroe
doctrine may embroil us in a war with all Europe
from which we may emerge sobered, chastened, en
lightened by contact even at 2000 years with
genuine civilization, and become a real nation.

the voice of the protest of the workingmen, and pro
ceeded next morning to edit it with all the vigor at
their command. It is quite likely, therefore, that the
effect of the meeting will be to materially weaken the
prestige of the government among the workingmen
of London and indeed throughout the kingdom. It is
a formidable issue for the ministry to meet, inasmuch
as it enables the opposition to appeal to such varied
and potent sentiments as race prejudice against Chi
nese, the antagonism felt by large numbers of peoph
to the schemes of the big mineowners of the Rand,
and the high sentiment of indignation that exixts
among all classes against anything that even looks
like a revival of slavery. S. F. Call. '
A recent cartoon in the OregoniaA depicting the
southern voter as a gross individual, roughly clad in
long coat and huge sombrero, his face disfigured by a
barbarous mustach and a whisky bottle conspicu
ously protruding from a pocket, is about as true to
life as a howling redskin would be typical of Oregon
ians. In point of fact the southern states are peopled
by the most genteel and virtuous class of citizens that
the United States can produce, and the tendency
of the northern press to exaggerate their defects and
to ignore their characteristically fin bearing will cer
tainly not tend to produce that harmony so essential
to good government.
THE HYDE PARK PROTEST.
London newspapers giving detailed reports of the
recent mass meeting held in Hyde Park to protest
against opening South Africa to Chinese labor show
that the occasion was one of much more importance
than appeared from the brief accounts given in the
cable dispatches. The day was by no means pleasant
for such a gathering, being cold and misty, but nouv.
the less, according to estimates of the Westminster
Gazette, upward of 50,000 workingmen marched in
procession to the park from various quarters, while
thousands of others join them there, so that when
the bugle calls for order sounded fully 80.000 peeph
were gathered around the 14 platforms from which,
addresses were to be made and resolations moved.
Among the notable features of the demonstration

Fire came in such awful shape at St. Vincent's hos
pital, Indianapolis, that even a description of its
work is almost unbearable. Among many third and
fourth story patients an unusual number had re
cently undergone surgical operations. One unfor
tunate, just operated on for appendicitis, ran down
four flights of stairs to the street. For the perfection
of modern hospitals it might be suggested that the
more helpless be housed on the ground floor.
King Edward has given something more than a
hint to the English court set that he wants them to
pay their debts. If this keeps up it will not be
worth while to belong to the nobility.
Ambassador Porter is far from enthusiastic over
the proposition to name him as the republican candi
date for governor of New York. He is not ambitious
to star in the role of a sacrifice.
An earthquake has just been experienced at Pa
pcete, Tahiti, which shook all the books out of the
shelves. It is well that false teeth are not fashionable
with the natives of that place.
Mormons in the state of Washington declare that
the cost of living is an effectual bar to polygamy. We
