then went outside to acknowledge the
cheers of ii large crowd gathered In the

The Soar t of the Interest

The wiilcs‘ road we may say, almost
universal, l tcrost which the coming
of a (lei-m a Prince to American
shores has excited among our people,
is an Incident worthy of serious study
bv all lov crsIot republican institutions.
in caily day of the republic no such
an cxliibitio would have horn possi-
ble, though we must not forget that
Virginia got its name, "The Old Do-
minion." tron Iiivitiun Kim; Charles
to set up his throne liy the. Chess
pcnlie. We do not view with alarm
this running 1 the people to the. street
corners to see a prince go by. The
dread of the ‘iowcr of a single man has
passed forcv :r from the human heart.
The demons ithc past are the toys or
the present. We smile where our fore-
fathers trembled with tour. The love
of place and pow‘cr and all the para-
phernalia of dice retain. however. for
all time a place in the. hearts of the
people. 'l‘hlp makes goveinnient pos-
sible and so are Over against this Is
