CHARLES A. DANA.
The Washington Post, of yesterday,
gays : "Yesterday the famous and ven
erable editor of the New York Sun passed
away, after a long illness, acd under the
harden of many and eventfnl years. We
do not recall in oar knowledge or expe
rience of journalism a more impressive
figure or a more strenuous and potent
personality. Mr. Dana has always been
earnest, if not interne, in everything.
He has never been content with the
beaten track, with the commonplace and
the stereotyped.
He began life as one of the Brook
Farm community, in the capacity of a
servitor-associate of Nathaniel Haw
thorne, Margaret Fuller, and that illus
trious group of thinkers who occupied so
large a p'ace in the intellectual world ot
that day. He was afterward a disciple
of Proudhou, tbo notorious Socialist,
and wrote in the New York Tribune a
series of letters of marked abili'y rela
tive to that eminent person. I . . i c the
civil war he was a subordinate of Mr.
Lincoln's distinguished War Secretary,
Stanton, and in that position exhibited
notable qualities of energy, devotion
and enthusiasm. After the war, obtain
log control of the New York Sun, he
proceeded to force his newspaper into
the front rank of journalism, imparting
to it a reputation for brilliancy and bit
terness in its editorial department, but
studiously and inexorably exacting from
its news department the most scrupulous
adherence to fact, and the very highest
literary style. A quarrel with General
Grant, dming the great soldier's admin
istration as President, took Mr. Dana
and the Sun into the Democratic Party.
A quarrel with Mr. Cleveland, when Gjt
ernor of New York, took Mr. Dana and
the 8an into opposition to the Demo
cratic ticket of 1894. He had the most
violent feuds with John A. Logan, with
Henry Ward Beecher, as with U. 8.
Grant, and these fends he exploited with
a rancorous and relentless animosity
which aaaxed the generation. He wa
unforgiving in his resentments, iutem
perate in his me'.hods of warfare, but
he made the Sun a model newspaper,
i and, even in his most savsge and wither
ing attacks upon those he regarded ar
hit enemies, he kept the Sua's tone to s
pitch, of porfect tone and brill anry
Whether we admire or condemn Mr
Dana, as an influence in public affairs.
It k Impossible to deny his power and
hi charm ot style. ,
' To analyze Mr. Dana's effect upon the
thought and the tendency of his time is
a task calling for the most careful and
loKberate reflection. It la a task for
mm
which we have neither the leisure nor
the inclination at ibis moment. We need
no indulgence, however, in the matter of
pronouncing upon his intellectual attain
ments, nor do we hesitate so muoh as
the fraction of an instant in saying that
he was a tremendous factor, a force of
meat passionate and indomitable energy
in the equation of the period. What
ever he did he did with a gigantic
might Whatever he thought he utter
ed with surprising eloquence and clear
ness. Riht or wrong, mistaken or in
formed, just or unjust, generous or
vengeful, philanthropic or malevolent,
he was at all times frank, outspoken and
commanding. No one can say of him
he was faint-hearted in his animosities
or n laggard in his loves . Whatever else
he may have been, he was not that poor
and unconsidered thing, a nfgative.
SEAL EXPERTS FROM JAPAN.
The last of the delegates to the inter
national seal conference to arrive are the
Japanese representatives, S. Fugita and
K. Mutsukuri, who came in last night
from New York, and are stopping at the
Arlington, says the Washington Post.
The Russian commissioner, M. Pierre
Botkine, arrived in Washington last
week. It ia believed that the conference
between the delegates of Japan, Russia
and the United States will meet durirg
the present week, and betf n the task of
reaching an agreement in regard to Ber
ing Sea matters, and that the American
and British experts will meet a few
days later.
The Japanese delegates are prominent
and representative men of their native
land. S. Fugita is a member of the
Board of Fisheries in the Industrial Dj
partmentof the Japanese government
He is well informed on the seal ques
tion, and will no doubt take a prominent
part in the coming conference. K. Mut
sukuri is a graduate of H irvard Univer
sity. At present he occupies tha chair
of biology in Tjkio University, a national
icsitution of learning. Mr. Mutsukuri
is a distinguished scholar, and has a
thorough knowledge of the modern languages.
