The seriousness of the throrft-
ened boycott of American goods
by tho merchants of China is rec
ognized by our cotton manufac
turers. The delegation that call
ed upon President Roosevelt last
week protested against the deten
tion of highnlass Chinese by our
immigration authorities, and the
President wrote to Secretary Met
calf, of the Department of Com
merce and Labor, asking that
way bo found to stop the present
objectionable inspection. Better
it is to make it easier for one or
two coolies to evade the law now
and then thuu to heap indignities
on merchants, students and cul
tured travelers. There is really
something at stake in this mat
ter.”
Vienna ia making the necessary
preparations to entertain the
Veterans’ Reunion to bo held in
this city next Tuesday.
The Veterane aud their friend*
will be in Vienna next Tuesday,
July 4tb, in full force.
The New York school authori
ties have rcaohed the very tone
conclusion that boys should not
be taught sewing in the pnblio
schools, and that snch instruction
should bo confined to the girls.
Thus one of the “fads” instituted
by the superintendents has been
set aside. The authorities at the
same time decided to eliminate
Latin from the list of primary
school studies, and <u its place to
substitute Spanish. Another
change determined upon was to
ligbteu the course in mathematios,
ao that algebra will be taught
only in.the last year, instead of
the laat three year*. Geography
and history are also to be revised*
so thnt more attention will be
given to America and lesa to the
countries that the average pupil
will never hear of after leaving
school. The changes are all baa
ed on common sense.—Savannah
