The unreBt In China, which la the result of antl-forelgn sentiment, Is un- doubtedly spreading. The hostility which Is manifested to Europeans and Americans la rapidly developing un pleasant phases, and Is by no means confined to the lower classes. That It Is particularly Btrong against Ameri cans has recently been manifested In a manner unmistakable — a state’ of affairs for which we may thank our abominable Chinese exclusion law. It fs therefore well that this govern ment be prepared to act promptly and effectively In the event ot an outbreak In the Celostlal Empire. With such a military force as It Is proposed to con- sol I date at Manila, and a naval squad ron of the strength Indicated In recent publications based on Information from the Navy Department, vigorous measures could bo adopted by the Uni ted States should occasion demand. The proximity of the Philippines to Chinese territory Is of vast strategic Importance. In the event of an out- hroak-such as Is feared, prompt action which would not otherwise be possible can bo taken, and the lives ot scores, or ovon hundreds, of .imperilled for eigners be saved. THE NEGRO AND HIS OPPOR TUNITIES. Too many negroes fall to appreciate tho fact that h mnn who can dig n good ditch or plow a straight furrow Is n more useful and honored member of society than a sorry school teacher or a preacher without morals. That Is why thousands of members of tho race will fall to profit by tho mlvlce of Booker Washington, who told an audi ence of pogroos In New York a few days ago that they should strive to make themselves better servants than tludr white rivals. A few yean ago a I negroes In this country occupied mental positions, and not one In hundreds was educated. To day many of that race nre filling posi tions of trust and responsibility, while the colored schools of tiro South are overflowing But. from slavery to tho achievement of success In tho world of trade. In dustry, finance and -ho professions can not bo achieved by an entire race In forty years. Booker Washingtons are rare, and If there wore thousands like him today, the field In which he Is laboring would bo overcrowded. Instead of being dissatisfied with its present opportunities, if the negro nice will but improve these opportun ities ns they are now presented, it will he ablo to take advantage of-,anything that changing conditions may bring. On tho other lit ml, failure to satisfac torily meet the demands now made upon them as •servants pad laborers wilt render them incapable of grasp ing whatever greater opportunities may become theirs in the future. .ture Wright and Director R ding, of tlie Georgia experiment stn- ■ . . tlon. have g ' • to Washington to en list Federal to operation tr. the strong • 4* . • effort that I - lo be made te success* fally'TCoinkU ti e divaded Texas cattle 'fever in tbl:.

It Will he a matter of "hard pan" until : tha obligation is completely wiped out. the burden will be heavy on the tlons for slich farces as $1 for plain drunks and $1.60 for drunk's “with trlmmln’s?” A police court fine Is sup- posed tp be a penalty, not a Joke. Senator Tillman Is going to be In the dispensary fight In his state until the last ditch has been lost and taken. His friends are said to have advised h(m not to take part In the campaign/ but as be does not happen to be built that way, be has found It Impossible to come around to their way of thinking. The fact that he will take active part In the fight shquld remove any doubt that there xHll be dull times In South Carolina In the near political future. Religion In'Tfils Country. in the current labile of the Christian Advocate (New York) Dr. H. K. Car- roll makes his yearly report on the re ligious bodies ot tho United States. In the matter of numbers tile Roman Catholics lead tlie procession, with 10,- 786,490 coiiimunlcants, a gain of 192,- 122. They have now 11,500 churches and 14,000 priests.

SCRUGGS, T P. A., Savannah, Ga. CHARLES F. STEWART, A. G. P. A., Savannah, Ga. The police court at Albany netted $847 tn January. This is more than the receipts in Moultrie for an entire year.—Moultrie Observer. You dou’t get enough, Moultrie, dear. We venture the assertion that there are fewer drunk men seen on the streets of Albany in the course of a year than in any city of equal slzh in tlie state, nor is disorder often at tempted by the rowdy class of natives or visitors. But when a man does get drunk and appear on the streets, or when a city ordinance is violated in some other manner, the offender is promptly taken in tow and his name .entered on the docket. There are no favorites or immunes in Albany.. Ex isting ordinances are enforced “re gardless," and when a defendant is ad judged guilty he is Invited to contrib ute in an amount calculated to leave a bright spot on his memory.
