Abstract:
"Americans generally have a kindly feeling for England's new king, Edward VII, for they regard him as a good fellow as kings go, but they can't but wonder at the necessity for so much pomp and pageantry and revamping of 10-century customs to make of him a real king. With all the fuss and feathers necessary to his proclamation as king, Edward, after all does not have one quarter of the real power that is exercised by the president of these United States every day."
